Hey guys! I know, I know i was gone for a while but, i'm back! Please enjoy!

What is the opposite of two? A lonely me, a lonely you. -Richard Wilbur

Tobi silently watched as Hyuuga Hinata slammed her locker door close. All the week she had been drawn into herself, slowly building an impenetrable wall around herself. She constantly pulled her hoodie over her head and let her bangs grow out more so she could cover her eyes.

Tobi also noticed how she had been avoiding him, and Madara. But, they weren't the only ones. She hid from her friends and tried to avoid confrontations with any other class mates. It had all started on that Monday when the news that Sakura Haruno was murdered. No one else had noticed except Tobi, the wicked smile the crossed her face for only a second before she burst into tears sliding out of her seat.

Quickly, Tobi followed Hinata as she made her mad dash in and out the crowd of students. She raced up the steps to the roof before she threw her belongings to the ground.

Pulling out a note book Tobi began to write.

Subject: 17265

Name: Hyuuga Hinata

Age: 17

Height: 5'2

Weight: 152 pounds

Subject seems to be experiencing self-isolation and confinement. Subject showed slight amusement in death and violence. Subject realizes this and, is going through inner confliction. As predicted injection 745 seems to be experiencing slight delirium and hallucinations, fainting spells occur more frequently.

Tobi snapped the note book shut and, looked through the small window of the door leading to the roof outside again.

Hinata was standing on the edge looking downward.

He could tell she was crying by the way her shoulders shook rapidly and, her tiny hands balled themselves into fist. Hinata then took a step back, and then another before she plopped to the ground. She gripped her long blue black hair as her body racked with sobs, she was conflicted about everything that was happening and what she was doing. Smirking to himself Tobi opened the door.

Hinata whipped her head around at the sudden sound of the large roof top door slamming close. Hinata cautiously stood up and inched her way away from the edge and closer to the door. Hinata was absolutely certain that she had heard the door closing but, no one was in sight.

"Hello? A-ano is anyone th-there?" Hinata asked into the cold air.

"Only Tobi."

Hinata froze. She could feel Tobi's breath on the back of her neck. His arms slithered their way around her waist making Hinata's breath catch it's self in her throat.

"Only Tobi…" He repeated biting into her neck.

Hinata gaining her senses slammed her elbow into Tobi's chest. Whirling around Hinata got into the traditional 64 palms stance.

But, no one was there.

"What!?" Hinata looked around her shoulder and came face to face to Tobi. "Tobi's a good boy! Why would you attack Tobi?"

Hinata hardened her face and quickly fixed her position. Swiping her open palm to the left she slammed it into Tobi's chest. The attack hit its mark on air. Tobi was gone again and, this time Hinata wasn't going to let him that close.

Sliding into her family's pride, the Jauken stance Hinata prepared herself.

Tobi stepped up behind her, Hinata spun around in a whirlwind of fist and palms. Yet Tobi was gone again.

"W-what the heck?!"

"Hina –hime Tobi is a good boy!"

Hinata was frustrated immensely. How could he keep disappearing like that? Was he even really there? Hinata had been hallucinating a lot lately, she saw her dead mother and grandmother, saw things… grotesque creatures that would look into her window at night.

She even could sometimes see Sakura's mutilated body lounging on her door frame, smiling at her like she didn't realize she had a gaping hole in her chest. Or that her arm was twisted in such a grizzly matter, or her leg had a bone clearly protruding from it, that her feet were bound together swollen and bloody.

Her neck bruised so viciously, her face pounded in and bruised covered with dark marks littering her once perfect complexion.

"Hinata? Aren't I such a good girl?"

Suddenly it wasn't Tobi anymore. Sakura stood in front of Hinata in all of her mutilated glory.

Sakura smiled so sweetly, her deranged face contorting ever so slightly. All Hinata could do was watch, mouth agape in horror.

Sakura then bowed slightly before doing a twirl, her left arm rose high in the air and the other stretched out to her side. Once she stopped she leaped to the right twirling and doing a series of ballet position. If this were the regular Sakura it would have been a graceful show. But, this was definitely not the beautiful cheery girl.

Her gangly body acted as a puppet. With her body distorted into no recognition her twisted and broken limbs could not fully perform the dance routine. And with her ankles bound loosely her gruesome body would tumble over itself in a heap. The display was horrifying.

After another catastrophic fall Sakura's body wriggled for a moment before lifting itself up. Each limb one by one jerked it's self harshly until Sakura had managed to get back up on her wobbly knees. She bowed once more before like leaves in the wind, her body literally was thrown up in the air and whisked away.

Hinata stood still for quite a long time.

Her body itched with disgust and her stomach threatened to release what little food she ate.

And, yet she just stood there.

Tobi casually looked down on her from his spot on top of the schools large generators. After he had bit her, injecting an even more enhanced formula of injection 745, injection 817 Hinata tried to attack him. But, her movements were slow and she stumbled every time she tried to locate him again.

In her delirious state he had climbed up onto the generator and observed.

For a while she kept trying to attack air, like he was there even though he wasn't. She had seemed to stop and think for a moment. She looked as if she were trying to figure out something that is until she had turned around so fast Tobi almost though she had broken her own neck.

She had had whimpered in fear while she had watched whatever phantom haunted her mind. Hinata's body shook rapidly as Tobi watched her head follow the movement of whatever she was seeing and he was not. All the while Tobi took detailed notes.

But, when Hinata had suddenly just stopped moving all together Tobi feared that their most brilliant patient had keeled over.

Whipping out his phone Tobi called the only contact on his phone.

"Madie I think Tobi has a problem!"

"TOBI! Stop calling me Madie!"

"Stopping yelling at Tobi! You make Tobi sad!"

"Whatever, what's the problem Tobi?"

" Tobi thinks Hinata's dead."

"What?! How did she die?!"

"Well Tobi doesn't know she just stopped moving."

"Wait… is she standing up Tobi?"

"Yes?"

"She not dead then you fuck tard! She's just-"

"I know what she is dumbass so stop treating me like I'm fucking stupid." Obito interrupted.

"Oh so now you show up? When did you get out of school munchkin?"

"I don't go to elementary school for the last time! It's a cover! How else do you think I can get close enough to Hinata's sister?"

"Shut up Obito don't forget who's the bigger person here."

Obito was in fact Tobi, Madara just enjoyed to tease him about the small boy who posed as his younger self to get information out of Hinata younger sister about her.

"I know Hinata's brain is trying to make sense of what just happened, of course all this thinking is causing her heart to pump more blood so that it can send more oxygen to her brain.

Her body somehow shut down so that it doesn't send too much oxygen to the brain, too much oxygen in her brain could cause her to have an aneurism and, this of course is a common side effect to injection 817 almost 10 out of 10 people die from one when injected. And, yet her body was able to adapt to the changes quickly and alter the 'would have been' violent reaction.

It's absolutely amazing!"

"Yep, she just like the rest of the Akatsuki, Gaara, and our cousin Sasuke who have been injected." Madara inserted.

"Ah, yes that is true but, she is the only one who still holds her sanity."

Sasuke, Gaara, Hidan and Deidara all sat in a circle around a small camp fire.

"The grass is all wet un! My designer jeans will be ruined yeah!" Deidara exclaimed dramatically as he tried to 'faint' and fall onto Gaara. Except he landed face first into more wet grass.

"Dammit un!" Deidara mumbled into the dirt.

They were all now sitting in a half circle.

"When are they going to get here?! These fucking bastards taking the fucking time! This is why those damn Uchiha's get on my fucking nerves!" Hidan wailed, he threw his arms up and fell backwards. The squish of wet grass sounded as his head hit the ground.

Sasuke momentarily glared at Hidan before Gaara tugged on his sleeve.

"Gaara heard something."

"Ughh not again! I fucking hate Shukaku!" Sasuke growled before shoving Gaara away. Standing up he looked around, soon the sound of squishy steps making their way towards them could be heard. Soon Madara and another boy with an orange bandana over his face made their way over to the group of four. They stopped in front of them, Madara tossed a girl with familiar long black hair over his shoulders on to the ground. The girl pulled herself up into a sitting position she just stared at her hands unwilling to acknowledge the other 6 presences.

"Whats with the chick yeah?" Deidara asked placing his chin in his hand.

"Shut up." Gaara commanded glaring at the blond. Once he starts asking questions he just never stops.

"I already know who she is anyway." Gaara added before retuning his attention to the two other Uchiha.

"Hello as requested were here. So what's the plan?" Madara asked as he sat down. Tobi sat down next to him. "Listen bed head I honestly don't know why the fuck these two genius over her even want with us."

Madara's eye twitched.

"Please refrain from calling me bed head Hidan." Flicking his eyes to Sasuke Madara smirked.

"Cousin."

"Old man."

Madara's eye twitched some more.

"Eherm. Please explain to me why you and your…" Madara casted his gaze over to Gaara who was once again intently studying Deidara. "Friend are trying to hunt down and reconnect the Akatsuki?"

Sasuke's eyes narrowed. "You know exactly why."

"Enlighten me." Madara asked smugly.

Un- consciously Deidara's eyes darkened and Hidan scowled deeply. Gaara didn't miss not one of their reactions. Even the man with the orange bandana could be seen shaking ever so slightly.

"Don't you know? Why do you think we hear voices I our head? Why do you think we see horrifying phantoms every night of every fucking day staring us down huh?! Why do you think we feel one way then some way else the next fucking second! WHY IN FUCKING HELL DOES THAT HAPPEN!" Sasuke screamed his face red with anger.

"Yeah Madara, Tobi why does that happen?" At once everyone shot their heads to the right. Even the midnight haired girl with the large starlight eyes. There stood a tall man split straight down the middle. On side of him white, the other black. He looked like a walking ying yang symbol with unnaturally bright green hair. He wore a large green high collar coat, the collar was tailored to go high above his head. All in all he looked like a venus fly trap.

"Why in the hell do I have two sides? One more violent than the other? Why do I find human flesh the most delicious thing of the fucking planet?" The man continued. Sitting down next to Tobi the man expectantly raised his un- matching eyebrows, waiting for Madara's answer.

Madara smirked slightly. "Ask Pein."

"Always the loop around yeah!" Deidara complained glaring at Madara.

"Oh yeah Zetsu here." Pulling out a bloody baggy from his ripped jeans casually and tossed it towards the plant man. He caught it a pulled out a large mass of gunk.

Sasuke and Gaara instantly knew what it was.

Sakura's heart was now a lifeless mass of a former working organ. It was fleshy and pink and large yellowish veins coiled around it. Tobi stoop up and ran behind a tree.

Deidara held his nose closed and looked away.

Hidan shivered a little a looked away too.

Madara just stared at Sasuke's reaction to Zetsu sinking his teeth into the fleshy mass.

Gaara nearly threw up on spot and looked away as well.

Only Sasuke watched as Zetsu slowly digested the organ. Gunky blood caked his nails as Zetsu took bite after bite. It sounded like the wet grass. A disgusting squelch.

Sasuke, unable to take no more looked to glassy girl. They had lost her attention once again and she continued to stare at her hands. And, that's when he knew. She had been injected and lived. But, she seemed different. Not like the rest of them who had been injected, He had noticed that same… difference with Deidara too well, Gaara had noticed and had told him about it.

Yet she was different in a… weird way.

A large burp interrupted his train of thought and boy did it smell.

"So why do you need to find Itachi again?" Madara inquired causing Sasuke to snap his attention back to him.
