Naruto, Itachi, and Kisame were heading out of konoha and going to the Akatsuki base. Naruto was asking questions repeatedly and Itachi just wanted the kid to shut up for a while. Naruto asked "where are we going? When will we get there? How long will it be? Is the place we are going to nice looking?" Naruto just kept asking questions and Itachi and Kisame knew that if the didn't shut the boy up they would die from annoyingness. Itachi then snapped, he had had enough of Naruto. Itachi grabbed hold of Naruto's arms and threw him against a tree with so much force that the tree split in half over Naruto. Naruto had been knocked out cold. Kisame was now frightened by itachi because of the anger that was building inside of him. Itachi then picked up Naruto's limp body and put him on his back. Kisame and Itachi had kept silent all the rest of the way to the Akatsuki base.

Back at Konoha…

Sakura and Sasuke had been waiting on the bridge they come to every morning. They waited for Kakashi and Naruto to arrive because they were always late. Sakura, being the obsessive fan girl that she was tried again to woo Sasuke into liking her. Sakura then tried everything to get Sasuke to notice her. She then waited for him to respond. Moments went by and Sasuke did nothing until he finally spoke" Sakura I love you so much". Sakura was shocked to say the least. Do you really mean that Sasuke-kun? Sasuke went up to her face making her blush bright red and he said "no I don't mean it, I would never love someone like you". Kakashi then appeared and saw Sasuke standing their like nothing happened and Sakura in the ground twitching. What happened to her Sasuke? Nothing happened to her Kakashi, she just failed again at trying to get me to like her. They waited another 15 minutes for Naruto to arrive but he never did. Sasuke Sakura have any of you seen Naruto today? They both shook their heads. Maybe we should go to his house and get him up! That is exactly what they did. They went over to Naruto's house but they didn't find Naruto. What they found shocked them. There was torches around the house, footprints everywhere, and a burnt down house. They looked over konoha to find him and didn't see him anywhere. Their last hope was the ramen stand. They didn't find Naruto their either but the heard villagers talking about how they burned down Naruto's home. Kakashi went up to the villagers and lifted him off the ground by his neck and said "where is Naruto!!!". The villager was panicking and he told him that he was taken away by two tall guys in black and red cloaks.

At the Akatsuki base:

Waiting In the base was a blonde haired male, a ninja with a swirling mask, and a plant man. Wonder what's taking itachi and Kisame so long to get the kid don't you think Tobi, un? Tobi just said "Maybe Itachi-san stopped to get me some toys Deidara-san!?" Tobi there is no way that itachi stopped to get you some toys said Zetsu the plant man. The robotic half of Zetsu said "You are so true about that".

Itachi burst through the door with Kisame and threw Naruto at Tobi. Ouch itachi-san why did you throw this kid at me? Because I felt like it tobi. Naruto then woke up and…..
