"Talking"

'Thinking'

Sakura watched the comings and goings of the Hokage tower quietly. She masked her chakra well so that no one could sense her and if they did, well let's just live that to the imagination. She was watching a certain window, waiting for the last person to leave the records room. Finally when the person left she put her pan into action. Looking around to see if anyone was coming she jumped onto the ledge of the window. After opening it she quietly landed in the room and walked over to the file cabinets.

"now where the hell is that report." she muttered to herself as she flipped through the different files. Every time she saw her parents name she would quickly read over the file, but usually found nothing of importance. Becoming irritated she opened up another file and her eyes widened as she began to read the report. Her eyes widened more at the information that was in it.

"These bastards!" she whispered out harshly, "My parents weren't considered KIA or MIA until the squad got back." She closed the file in anger, "They made my parents the decoys and ran for their worthless lives."

She closed the file cabinets and placed the file in her back pack. Walking to the window she glared at the town below. "Worthless idiots, only a few here are worthy of being called ninja." With a last glare she disappeared quickly and out of Konoha, she didn't even give a backwards glance.

WITH DEIDARA AND TOBI:

"Hm, I wonder what she wanted with that report, yeah?" Deidara asked out loud. He and Tobi were following the pink haired girl, who gave no indication of knowing they were there. Tobi was excitedly bouncing around Deidara, who was started to become annoyed.

"So, when are we going to talk to her, huh, huh, huh?!" he asked excitedly in front of Deidara's face. the man glared at the other and shoved him away.

"We'll go to her when we confirm that its' safe," Deidara said, "Now shut up." When Tobi finally settled down they resumed the watch over the now resting pink haired girl. She was leaning against a tree and had pulled the report out again, she began reading it with a scowl on her face, "Hmm, I wonder what's in that report to make her angry, yeah?"

"Why are you guys watching me?" a voice called from behind them. Like before Tobi screamed and fell over, Deidara flinched and turned to face the green eyed girl. She had a small smile on her face with her head tilted to the side, "Are you going to answer me?"

He could help but stare at her face, he let his gaze travel down to her lips, 'Why do I have the strangest urge to know how they feel?' He brought his gaze back to hers, "We need to have a little talk, yeah."

"Oh," she said, "and what do we need to talk about?" She then sat down in front of him, waiting for him to start talking. He stared at her for another minute before he began talking.

"Our leader asked us to bring you back to the base for a little meeting with him, yeah." he began, "You can come with us quietly or we could knock you out and take you anyway, yeah." he stared at the girl who blinked at him then giggled at what he said, and for some reason it sounded like music to him.

"I guess I'm going to the base one way or another." she said, "So what difference does it make if I say anything."

He sighed, "The difference is being comfortable or not, yeah." He then glared at her, "Are you coming willingly or not, yeah?"

Sakura rolled her eyes then nodded, "Fine, I'll go with you but I have one question."

He growled, "What is it?" She pointed towards his partner, who was somehow still on the ground, "Is he asleep?"

He sweat dropped and then growled at the sleeping body. Getting up he walked over to Tobi and roughly kicked him, "Get up you lazy ass, yeah!"

"Ow, ow, ow" the boy yelled, "Don't kick Tobi Deidara-sempai!" Deidara didn't listen and kept kicking him. Sakura looked on with amusement, she began to giggle when Tobi began running around trying to get away from Deidara. 'Hmm, I wonder when we'll start heading out?' she thought, she giggled again when she saw Deidara had caught Tobi and proceeded to put him in a headlock, 'Oh well this is funny.'

AT THE AKATSUKI:

When they arrived at the base Sakura was surprise that it was in the fire country territory. She noticed that the base was hidden by a strong genjutsu, "That's a pretty powerful genjutsu for no one to realize that this place was here."

"Leader-sama is a master at genjutsus," Deidara said, "I'm surprised that you could see through it at all, yeah."

Sakura looked at the ground sadly, "My father taught me how to see past genjutsus including powerful ones, he was the best in the village." She lifted her head and put the smile back on her face, "Well let's get going." They enter the base after making sure no one was around to see them.

Once inside the base they took her directly to their leader's room. Arriving at the right door, Deidara shoved Tobi foreword, who hesitantly knocked on the door. "What is it?" a deep voice called form inside the room.

Deidara spoke up before Tobi could answer, "We brought back the kounoichi you wanted to talk to Leader-sama." The room was quiet for a minute.

"Fine, she can come in," the door opened a little, "her and only her." Sakura didn't know why but the voice sounded familiar to her, it felt like something important and she wasn't afraid of it like Deidara and Tobi were. She walked to the door and pushed it open enough so she could enter the room. When she entered the room she saw a figure sitting at a desk cloaked in shadows in the corner of the room.

"So," the deep voice said, "you are Haruno Sakura." It wasn't a question but Sakura answered anyway, "Yes."

A deep chuckle filled the room, "You are not afraid of me, why is that?"

Sakura shrugged, "I don't' know, it just doesn't feel that way when I hear you, it's like your voice is familiar to me." She looked around the room, "I've been wondering if I know you from my childhood or do you not want to scare me."

"Or it could be both," the man got up from his chair, "I am immensely glad that you can remember even a little bit of me little one" The dark figure came out of the shadows and the small amount of light illuminated his face. Sakura's eyes widened and filled with tears at the face that was just revealed.

"I can't believe it's you!"
