YuPoV

Today it's three days ago that I joined Akatsuki. Today I have to fight a member to proof my worth before I got my father's ring and a cloak. Leader said that I could choose my opponent myself. I didn't want to choose someone I could actually beat but someone I had a chance of beating if I planned things out carefully and with giving a hard fight. I chose Hidan. Kisame wasn't able to tire out easily, Itachi has Mangekyo Sharingan, Kakuzu has all five the elements so he always has an advantage, Pein and Konan weren't the leaders for nothing and I didn't trust Tobi. Hidan was easy to lure into making mistakes. I found the new guy strange though. He seemed to be a bit like Tobi though he is a bit clumsy too... Let me correct that, he is very clumsy.

I prepared my weapon pouch with the poisoned kunai, and senbon that father taught me how to make the poison for. I checked my chakra levels and noticed that I was just fine in that part. I had rested and trained for the fight though I didn't show them what I could do just yet. I wanted to surprise them with some of my techniques. this would be a great fight all I had to do was avoid Hidan getting in touch with my blood.

"Yuri, you ready? Hidan is annoying us with bragging about how he would kick your ass." Deidara called.

"One moment." I grabbed my weapon pouch and left the room quickly. Deidara followed me as we ran to the training grounds. Hidan was still talking while the rest looked annoyed and bored. Even Pein would be watching? I believe they all want to see if I can beat Hidan or not. That new guy is going to watch too. Ryutaro. He gave me the creeps for some reason.

"Ah, the bitch is finally here. What the hell took you so long? Were you scared of facing me?" He laughed. I sighed, took my vest off asking Deidara to hold it for me. I was wearing a dark red tank-top with cuts on my sides. It hugged my body nicely. I was wearing black skinny jeans and low-heeled boots. I wore my dark hair in a braid which reached my lower back.

"Let's get this over with, I don't have all day." I said feeling bored as Hidan was taking his sweet time.

"You think you are tough huh? acting like that foolish puppet of a father of yours." He taunted. I didn't answer him as I just watched his movements. "Well let me tell you something. Sasori was a stupid fool for letting himself get killed by a snot-nosed little girl and an old hag." He taunted knowing that it would get a rise of me.

It did so I called Jaws, Shadow Tora and Blitz. He prepared for my attack while I used shadow to set a few traps here and there. Then I did sheep horse dragon "earth release: Earth dragon bullet." Then I used exploding water colliding wave in combination with six feeding sharks. I went after the sharks and hit Hidan but he kicked me away after he slaughtered my sharks. I landed on my back and Hidan threw his scythe. I dodged it but forgot about the rope to pull it in. Hidan hit me with his scythe and went into grim reaper mode.

"Muahahaha. You are going to fucking die! Jashin-sama will be happy with you joining your family in hell. I got up but when Hidan stabbed himself in his stomach the pain was almost unbearable. I barely did another exploding water colliding wave though this one was weaker to wash the Jashin sign he had made on the ground. After that I used a genjutsu to lure him in a false sense of safety combined with harem technique. Then I used temple of nirvana technique and when Hidan was asleep I bound him with chakra absorbing ropes.

Itachi was told to free Hidan but Kakuzu stopped him. "It's peaceful now. let him sleep for a while." I tried to heal myself but the wound was deep and it too a lot of chakra. More than I could afford to use. Konan patched me up and we went to eat leaving Hidan where he was.

"Yuri, you are now an official member of Akatsuki. Kakuzu has your cloak and I have your ring."

"Do I have to paint my nails too?" I asked looking at my fingernails briefly. They looked fine.

"yes. Ryutaro will help you." Pein said his tone leaving no room for arguing.

"Fine." I said while Ryutaro was doing a stupid dance with Tobi. The latter was chanting that I was now officially his friend.

I went to Kakuzu who had the cloak ready for me and he also had the nail-polish. I didn't have a choice in the colour though. I had to wear dark turquoise. Father's colour. Why I had to I didn't know. Kakuzu said it was because I was his child. If Deidara died and Ryutaro took his place, he had to wear a different colour. From then on my life as an Akatsuki member began. I trained with Deidara, did a few missions here and there. The rest of the world got to know me in a bad way and I couldn't care less, I had gained the nickname Silent Tiger as Tora was always seen fighting at my side. I got to know Ryutaro and aside from his tobi-like act and his clumsiness he wasn't that bad.

Three months later...

Today Deidara, Itachi, Kisame and I had a mission to steal some sensitive intel about the organization from a land lord, who was claiming he would rid the world of evil-doers like Akatsuki. We were supposed to show him not to make empty threats. It was a lord in the land of Wind. I had sent Shadow ahead to gather intel about the whereabouts and the defence. I didn't show it but I dreaded the chance of us running into either of the Sand-siblings. It was sand-storm season and we were looking for a cave to hide in. We found one which was occupied by a nest of falcon's. Before I could do anything the mother attacked Kisame thinking it was a fish. Kisame killed her and then her kids took turns. I could safe one naming it Merlin because that was it's race.

I kept it with me feeding it some rice and meat. We stayed until the storm was over though that took another eleven hours. I had fallen asleep for a bit. Shadow returned nudging my head and told me all the intel he gathered. The place looked like a bunker as if he knew we were coming. There were a hundred and twenty ninja their ranks spread from ANBU to chuunin. He told me he had seen Temari, Gaara and Kankuro too. I hope they were gone before we came. I relayed the information to my colleagues, Kisame and Deidara made a bet on who would kill most of the ninjas in there. They knew Gaara was brought back to life so they weren't too surprised when I told them.

"These siblings are mine to fight. I want all three of them. It will be a chance to give Konoha the final push to declare me a missing nin as they haven't done that yet, despite all the things I have done." I stated using my 'Sasori-mask'. Kisame said that he was fine as the Kazekage would be too easy for him because of his water jutsu's. They agreed though I was to get in contact if I was in a life-threatening situation as were the orders of Itachi. I mock-saluted and we all went our own ways once we arrived. It turned out that each of the siblings had placed themselves in a different area.

Gaara was in the front side and Temari and Kankuro each on a side and their sensei Baki on the back side. I would be fighting Kankuro first it seems. I had disguised myself first so I could kill off most ninja on his side. Though once he captured me in Black Ant I'd had enough of playing. I released my disguise and broke out. "Yuri!"

I think that was a sign because soon the other siblings arrived. Gaara seemed stronger than before and healthier too. He was more handsome than the last time I saw him. When he was the reason that my family died in one day. They did what all the familiar ninja did. trying to convince me to quit Akatsuki and rejoin Konoha or Suna. "Temari, boys. look at what I am wearing." They saw the cloak but didn't realize what it meant right away. Gaara seemed hurt and betrayed that I would join the organization that was after Naruto and that got him killed. "maybe now you know how I felt when my family got killed because of you." I was talking about friends hurting each other. Temari wanted to attack me but I used my speed to knock her out. Kankuro used his puppets on me but I managed to take control of one of them. It disabled the other puppets and I knocked Kankuro out too. Gaara managed to hurt me using sand shuriken. I called Jaws used water exploding colliding wave and knocked Gaara out with Iron fist style taijutsu but not before giving him a message.

"Tell Konoha to stop hoping that I will return because they want to. Tell the Rookie eleven to stop searching for me to bring me back. Tell Shino that I apologize again. I wish things were different but this is goodbye Gaara. I can't tell you more but thank you." then I knocked him out. I had left a small note for them and left after Itachi said we had to go back because he had gotten the information. I allowed a single tear to roll down my cheek. Deidara who had been fighting in the area closest to me had seen what I did. He gave me a knowing smile and left me to my thoughts.

We planned to rest and report in Amegakure. I was happy for the resting part not so much for the reporting. I would have to tell that Gaara was alive. I have to be reminded of my mistakes. When we arrived at the hide-out I took a shower first to get rid of all the dried blood and dirt. It was relaxing me as the hot water fell on my skin. I cleaned and scrubbed until I was spotless and got out when I smelled like myself again. Then I got dressed and dragged myself to the meeting room. We do the reports there. "Yuri, Itachi has reported the success of the mission. However I need to hear of your encounter with the Kazekage and his siblings."

I told him honestly that I didn't kill them. He seemed annoyed with that and ordered that I should stop caring for them. I lowered my gaze to the floor because I didn't want him to see my emotions. I felt conflicted though I nodded and he said that I had my next mission with Kakuzu and Hidan as punishment. They had captured the second jinchuriki and we were going to seal the two-tails as soon as we were all full of chakra. That would be tomorrow. I had trained on my chakra control and made my chakra levels rise to the level of ANBU.

I had a peaceful night except for all the rain. The next day I was woken up horribly by some thunder. I wonder what Tobi did now. I got up and changed quickly. When I opened the door someone knocked quickly but I had opened the door already so he knocked on me instead of the door. It was Ryutaro. He slipped into my room and closed the door. Then he hid under my bed. I looked out of my door and saw Deidara storming this way. I walked out of my room which caused the blonde to stop running. We collided and I felt that we fell through the door. I had closed my eyes and when we were on the floor I opened them again, as I felt something warm touch my lips. I was surprised that Deidara kissed me. It wasn't an accidental kiss because then He would've stopped it as soon it started. Right?

Anyway, I cupped his cheek and kissed back as familiar feelings went through my body. We heard someone moving around us and then a flash. It was Ryutaro. Deidara growled and got up chasing after him. I went after him too. Tora got him first. He tackled Ryutaro to stop him from escaping. Deidara lifted him by his shirt and I stole the camera removing the pictures. When I scrolled through the pictures he made I found a few interesting pictures. "Deidara you should see this." I said. He threw Ryutaro away and walked behind me to look over my shoulder. "You should tell Leader." He suggested. I nodded and went right away. However, Ryutaro went after me wanting to steal the camera back.

I got through the living room, but then I was stopped by a clone. "Give me the camera, then we can go our ways peacefully." He demanded

"No." I said simply.

"Then prepare to fight." He did some seals that caused something on his back to roar. Five dragonheads appear from his back. A brown one with emerald eyes, a white one with sapphire eyes, a stormy grey one with onyx eyes, a red one with golden eyes and a yellow one with pearl white eyes.

I was surprised but still called my I did seals for shadow clones and we used Lightning hound to attack him. Ryutaro did seals for a fire technique. "Great fireball technique." A large fireball came at me from the mouth of the red dragon and my clones but I used wild water wave, to prevent the fire from burning the living-room. I didn't use enough chakra though so the fireball overpowered my jutsu, All I could do was go underground. Suddenly an arm grabbed my ankle and I was stuck. I tried to make the arm let me go but I couldn't do in time. Shadow saved me in the last moment. He bit the arm and took me underground. I did get a burn on my face, and I lost a few strands of my hair. I made my Animals restrain those dragon-heads. They could only do it shortly so I had to act quickly. I charged chakra and did Monkey, Dragon, Rat, Bird, Ox, Snake, Dog, Tiger, Monkey, to do "Chidori." I aimed for Ryutaro's heart but he managed to break free before I could reach him. He punched and kicked me and all I could do was defend as my Animals were having trouble getting past the dragon-heads. We fought using Taijutsu as we both had to call our animals back. Deidara had left, I don't know why.

We fought for a while like this until "What happened here?" Konan. She pulled us apart from each other with Deidara's help. So that's where he went. The camera was destroyed during the fight so I couldn't show the pictures I wanted to show. We were both taken to Leader's office. I dreaded another punishment.

"Tell me the reason why I had to leave an important meeting hearing that two of the members of my organization were destroying my living-room." Leader said. We did our story though I couldn't proof my side except for Deidara being a witness. He whispered in Leader's ear what there was on those pictures. Leader sighed and looked at Ryutaro. "I can only say congratulations. You have accomplished the mission though I must say I am disappointed that I didn't get to see the pictures. Yuri you will not be punished this time as you already got a punishment going on and I can understand why you did what you did. now leave." He said.
