Chapter Six

I look down at the dog who is staring up at me with large, onyx eyes. I look at Kakashi and then back to the dog. I then set my hand down on his back. I take a deep breath and I look back at my sensei. I then ask, "Are you sure?"

"I am. I have dog summonings and I sometimes help with the Inuzuka family. I help with their dogs and I have become very familiar with the difference between dogs and wolves." Kakashi answers.

A low whimper comes from the black and orange wolf and I look down at him. He nudges my stomach with his head and looks back up at me. I then continue petting him.

"Gaara, what will the ninja's do about them?" I ask and he answers, "They'll be taken to the pound to be dealt with."

My eyes narrow as I ask, "You mean they will kill them?"

"In a sense, then yes. Wolves cannot survive in this area." The Kazekage answers and I hug the wolf closer to me.

The others watch us with knowing eyes before I hiss out, "NO!"

"…"

"I will not let you kill these pampered wolves!" I say and a few of them look like they just twitched.

"Who will care for them?" he asks and I say, "I will. I can supply them with food. I have money and I can buy them meat at the market."

The large black wolf stands and then I am face to face with him. He seems to stare intently in my eyes before his head lowers and he sets his jaw on my shoulder. He then stares at Naruto.

"Those eyes look familiar." Naruto suddenly says and I look at him with surprise.

I look over some of them and I have to say that a few do look familiar in a way. Kakashi is staring at the silver wolf that is curled around my hips and a smirk slowly crosses the wolf's face. The gold one closes his eyes.

The blue one sits up and I see that he is taller then I am. I am basically lying on the floor with them all over me. Then another growl comes from the doorway and the wolf standing there almost causes me to laugh.

It is a very large wolf with shiny green fur. His eyes, both an eerie yellow color, seem to flicker. I also notice that his paws have white on them and his ears and tail have black on them. Now he is an oddly colored animal.

The others sit up and a lot of growling and barking goes between them. Temari is standing next to me with a very surprised face. Kankuro is gone. Gaara is sitting next to Naruto on the floor. Sai is drawing in his art book. Kakashi is looking at the wolves and I am on Naruto's other side.

The black wolf growls and I see a faint, red, glow around his paws. I watch as the growls deepen and I see as the other wolves start to back away. Then, to my awe, fire starts to swirl around his paws in a storm of blazing heat.

"Wow." Is the only thing I can say to this.

The green wolf hunches down and bares his fangs. I watch as a green glow surrounds his paws and then they both launch at each other. With a mix of growls, yips of pain, and barks they fight and then the others slowly circle them.

The silver and swamp colored wolf pulls them apart. The blond and sand colored wolf moves between them. The blue and the black/orange wolf looks between them with confusion at what is going on between them.

"Pein-sama has sent me to help and to get you all on track!" Zetsu's light side says, but the black side growls out, "You will come with us now!"

"We are fine as of now. We are on the way of getting information on several things! The Kyuubi is right behind us! We can learn his strengths and weaknesses if we stay!" Itachi growls back and Hidan just says, "This is so going into a blog!" (Insert insane, wild, happy laughter here)

Everyone looks at him. Even the humanized ninjas around them look at the silver colored wolf with surprise…or if he is the weirdest thing on the planet to be correct. They all shrug before returning to watch the fight between the others.

"I think Zetsu should stay, un. Then he could report to leader with his plant power." Deidara says.

They, true enough, have their own abilities. Itachi controls fire, Kisame controls water, Tobi doesn't really have any power besides speed, Deidara still has his clay, Sasori can control objects like he did with strings, Hidan controls metals, Kakuzu controls these string things that come out of his arms, Zetsu controls plants, and Pein controls electricity. It the nutshell is water theory, but they all think that it is a link to turning back to their curse.

"He reminds me of that weasel!" Naruto suddenly yells and everyone turns to look at him with shock on their face.

"What?" Sakura asks. Confusion is clearly etched on her face.

"Well, after fighting those Akatsuki members a few months back I ran into this old lady who had a pet weasel on her shoulder. She said, 'beware of weasels and wolves.' I think she gave me a warning!" the blond exclaims.

"Naruto, that makes no sense. That also isn't very important at the moment." Kakashi responds and the blond yells, "It is too!!! She said 'BEWARE' of wolves! These are wolves! Yet…I wonder if the weasel has something to do with Akatsuki?"

Sasori seems to sigh and his head droops. Deidara just rolls his eyes at him and Tobi just gives a small yip. Then, "What a dumbass" comes from Hidan.

"He has never been to smart." Itachi replies and turns his attention back to Zetsu.

"There is also free food here, Zet-san." Tobi suddenly calls out and the bright green wolf snarls, "I Said Not To Call Me THAT!!!"

"Tobi is a good boy!" he whines as his tail swings to hide under him.

"Who would have thought that both sides would say anything at the same time?" Sasori questions this more to himself, but Tobi responds, "Only when VERY angry!"

"Just shut the fuck up, kid!" Hidan howls as he leaps at Tobi with fangs bare.

"NOOOOOO!!!" Tobi screams as he runs to hide behind Sakura.

"Hey, hey! Wait a second!" she cries out with her hands held up.

Hidan, of course, doesn't listen. He slams right into her. Then, to all their surprise, Itachi seems to howl out with pain.

They all look at him to see him glowing. The others, one at a time, are starting to be effected. Then Hidan says, "Oh shit."

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Hehehe…I wonder what will happen to our wolves? This is Cidean talking, not Sakura. Anyway, Hidan seems uneasy with that last sentence.

Please Review.

Oh, I look at some of my reviews and I thank you all for taking time to leave me something. Anyway, I just want to say that this IS an Sakura/Akatsuki story. I think I don't have as many reviews because this is a newer story…and not very long yet…anyway, I'll update as soon as I can! I can't promise anything because of school. My teacher has us doing this huge project that is worth around 300 points, so Ja Matte!!
