AN: Seventh chapter is up! Last chapter I was in a really down mood and if it hadn't been for the reviews I most likely wouldn't have updated this story! Reviews are my source of motivation and inspiration so please review! Constructive Criticism is welcome!

There probably won't be a pairing in this but who knows? I decided that I would just write down what I think is right! Although an opinion on one thing would be nice. The Akatsuki are a group of S-Rank missing nins and so I was thinking, what if there was a group within the group that wore different uniforms and things like that and this group was made to cause less problems. Think about it, people would completely freak out if one of the Akatsuki members came to some kind of meeting! If anyone likes the idea would it be possible to tell me? Also if I do end up doing this I would end up completely stuck on an outfit for the group, although I am thinking about going for something like the Dai Li outfit from Avatar (BUT I HAVE NO IDEA ON WHAT TO DO FOR OUTFITS, to me things like this are basically impossible to come up with)! Also this group would be made by Naruto's suggestion and Naruto would be the leader (there would be three or four members in the group. Tobi and Fu are defiantly going to be in the group if I do this. Anyone got a suggestion for a fourth member?)... So please tell me what you think of the idea!

'Wow... This place doesn't feel like Konoha at all...' The two, Naruto and Itachi had just arrived in Amegakure after an eight day journey from the Wave country to their current location. When they had arrived Naruto had been quite surprised, the village hidden in the Rain wasn't anything like Konoha. From what the blind blond could tell, the village was almost completely made out of giant buildings, all bigger then the Hokage's building back in Konoha, but there were still some small buildings, there were more towers then anything else though.

Naruto had thought that there would be some differences in the setting out of Ame compared to Konoha but this was... completely different from the place the blond had grown up in, it would take some time to get used to this place. The blind blond just wondered if the rain ever stopped falling in this village? The place was called Ame -Rain-, it was like Konoha, the village hidden in the leaves was surrounded by trees, so could it be that Amegakure was surrounded by rain? Naruto didn't know what to think of that.

As the two made their way through the southern quarter of the village, the place where the people of the village -both ninja and civilian- were helping out with rebuilding Naruto heard shouts that sounded something along the lines of

"SHUT THE FUCK UP KAKUZU! I KNOW WHAT I'M FUCKING DOING!"

"IF YOUR NOT CAREFUL THEN YOU'LL DROP THE SUPPORT BEAM!" Curious, the blind blond extended his 'sight' to see what was happening and... well shit. That wasn't going to end well. Up on one of the higher platforms of one of the towers that was being rebuilt stood two men -probably ninja- arguing close to the edge of the platform and from what Naruto had heard before one of them was holding a support beam. That really couldn't end well, and of course Naruto was right.

As the two continued fighting the one who was holding the support beam accidentally dropped it, off of the edge. How could things get any worse? There were three civilian workers located right under were the beam would land. Well FUCKING HELL!

Acting fast and calculating exactly where the beam would land while ignoring the shouts of "SHIT!" and "YOU FUCKING IDIOT!" Naruto punched the ground with his left fist and, not a moment later a few pillars made from the earth shot out of the ground and stopped the support beam from harming the three civilian workers. After doing that the blind blond went over to the civilian workers to ask if they were alright.

While all of this was happening Itachi had looked unfazed, but if one were to look closer then they would notice that the eldest of the two last Uchiha's right eye was twitching, even if it was just a little.

When Itachi had heard the shouts he had immediately recognised who they belonged to, Hidan and Kakuzu. The two were both members from the Akatsuki and they were probably the most violent members...

In all honesty, the missing nin from Konoha had been wondering why they had decided to stay, surely they would have both preferred to cause more destruction then to aim for peace? Hidan, with his insane Jashin worshiping and Kakuzu, with his thoughts about money and bounty hunting. What drove the two to stay in the organisation? Could they have some kind of alternative motive? Had they secretly been working with the fake Madara? Or is it possible that the two partners had formed a bond with the rest of the Akatsuki over time...? It could be possible.

Itachi took notice of what had happened after the support beam had fallen. The first thing he saw was Naruto punching the ground, immediately the Uchiha knew what the blind blond was going to do, he was somehow going to use earth bending to prevent the support beam from falling on the three civilians, then some pillars made of earth came out of the ground and stopped any injury that would have happened if the blind blond hadn't been there. After that he noticed that Naruto was walking towards the three civilians, what was he doing? Oh, he was just asking if they were ok...

Itachi walked over to the blind blond and just as he was about to tell him that they needed to go and find Leader-Sama two people came -seemingly- out of the sky, but Itachi knew that they had just jumped down from the building.

"SHUT THE FUCK UP KAKUZU! I TOLD YOU THAT IT WAS YOUR FUCKING FAULT! IF YOU HANDN'T-" Great, just fucking great. It was Hidan and Kakuzu, Itachi had been hoping that he could get both himself and Naruto away from the two. The oldest of the two last Uchiha didn't feel like dealing with what would happen next if they stayed. So he grabbed Naruto, flung him over the Uchiha's shoulder and made a run for it, heading to the middle of Ame, where Leader-Sama was -hopefully- located. The last thing he heard was Kakuzu's reply to Hidan.

"Oi, Hidan, I don't think that there's anything to worry about. There's nothing broken and no one has been injured, thus there is no need to lose any money. But... Who was that kid? And why was Itachi with him?"

Well shit, one of them noticed the Uchiha and the the blind Jinchuriki. But then again, it's no surprise that they would? The blind blond had just saved three people that they could have accidentally killed with what had looked like -to them- a high level earth style jutsu. But that didn't matter, what did matter was getting to Leader-Samma and introducing him to Naruto. Speaking of the blind blond...

"ITACHI-SENSEI, WOULD YOU PLEASE PUT ME DOWN!?" Oh yeah, Itachi had picked Naruto up and ditched him over the Uchiha's shoulder, no wonder the blind blond sounded angry. The only reply Itachi gave the blond Jinchuriki was said in a monotone way

"We have taken long enough, so now I'm taking you to meet Leader-Sama. Me carrying you would be the fastest way."

Naruto just sighed and allowed Itachi to carry him. The blind blond was actually quite curious, what was the Akatsuki's leader like? Itachi-Sensei had said that this Nagato person had wanted to find someone who had felt 'true' pain. But what kind of pain, physical or emotional? What 'pain' had the akatsuki's leader gone through? Was it worse then what had happened to the blind blond?

When Naruto had to meet the leader of the Akatsuki, what would he say? What could he say? It's not like he could just go and say something like 'Hey! I was blinded when I was five! What's your story?' Nope, if he said anything like that then his secret would be known by someone all the work he had been through to keep it a secret would go to waste!

Suddenly, Naruto felt himself being lifted off of Itachi-Sensei's shoulder while the Uchiha said in his usual monotone voice

"We're here." Naruto gulped.

The tower they were in was the largest in the village, that much was certain. On the inside of the tower both civilians and ninja were rebuilding some parts that had seemed to have been damaged. Had the fight between the two leaders led into this building? Had it started in this building? Or had it been caused by something else? Naruto didn't know why but he felt like the fight had started in his current location.

As the blind blond continued to walk behind Itachi to the Leader's location Naruto couldn't help but feel... Nervous? Very nervous. He was about to meet the leader of an organisation full of S-Rank missing nin for kami's sake!

The blind blond noticed that Itachi-Sensei had stopped and did the same, there was a large door in front of the blind Jinchuriki and the oldest of the last two Uchiha. Naruto gulped and extended his 'sight' so that he could tell what was in the room. It seemed like there was a big wooden thing on wheels with someone on it, a male. As well as another person just standing next to the thing on wheels, this person seemed to be female, but that was all he could find out.

All of a sudden Itachi knocked on the door once, opened it and dragged the blind blond in. Shit, was one of the two people in the room the leader? If so, which one?

Rubbing the back of his head in a sleepy way and putting on his foxy grin Naruto said

"H-h-hi!" Damn it! The blind blond had thought that Hinata was the only one who stuttered! Why did he have to do it now? Was he really that nervous? What should he do now?

"Itachi" the voice was definitely male, it was the person in the wooden thing. He seemed annoyed, angry and a little worried. The voice continued and the blind blond could tell that Itachi was angry at what had been said, so was he. "I ordered you to go and find someone who had felt true pain, not some naive and childish Jinchuriki who had never felt pain in his life."

Never... felt pain? Never felt pain? NEVER FELT PAIN!? Something snapped in Naruto right then and there, perhaps it had been the years of having to feel more pain then anyone could imagine and having to keep it a secret?

"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN NEVER FELT FUCKING PAIN?! WHEN I WAS FIVE MY GOD DAMNED CARETAKER RIPPED MY FUCKING EYES RIGHT OUT OF THEIR OWN BLOODY SOCKETS!" Naruto could now feel it, all of the room's occupants were completely shocked at his outburst, and what had been said in it.


Finished! Does this count as a cliffhanger?

The next chapter will show Naruto's past and what happened, now some may be thinking 'if he had his eyes ripped out then why are they still there?' That will be answered in the next chapter! Don't forget to review! Constructive Criticism is welcome!
