XxXxXx

"Child, why are you alone in a place like this?" A strange orange mask stood out from the darkness of the water's edge, it was nearly midnight. The forest surrounding the small hot springs that the petite young girl resided in was pitch black, making the man's mask stand out even more. Jumping slightly, she sank deeper into the water, her eyes trained on the other mask. Her own mask, the one she has had on since birth, was the only thing visible to the man standing at the water's edge now. Luckily, since she was nude under the steaming water.

It was more than just a surprise to both of them, to see a human. They were after all miles away from any human civilization in the fire country. A human out hear meant one thing...

"Are you a Shinobi?" they both ask, their voices mingling together.

"Better yet, are you a hunter-nin?" the young girl, aka Vallen, asked. Tobi tilted his head to the side and stared at the young sounding girl, he couldn't tell her age because of her mask though.

"Why would a girl as young as you, be running from hunter Nin?" Tobi asked in his child-ish hyper voice. Vallen giggles and raised her hand out of the water to cover the bottom half of her mask in a girlish manner.

"Because Vallen is a bad girl~" she said in a sing song voice.

"Oh? And what did Vallen do?" Tobi asked, testing the name on his tongue, for some reason it sounded familiar. He was sure he heard that name before, but he couldn't remember were or when.

"Vallen killed her family~" she sang, her childish giggles sounding from behind her mask. It sounded as if killing her family did no harm in her mind, Tobi stood their confused.

Now taking an interested in the girl, Tobi started to strip off his cloths and armour, so he could join the girl in the water, "Tobi wants to talk to Vallen more~" Tobi chimed, his acting voice flawless.

"Nya~!" Vallen squeaked before moving her hands to cover the eye hold of her mask. When she heard a faint splash she moved her hands again, only to come mask to mask with lollipop man. "You're a bit close, don't you think?" she asked, blushing deeply.

"Nope~ if anything Tobi isn't close enough!" he said, pulling her onto his lap. Vallen stilled, he was naked, she was naked... oh Kami help her.

"Tobi~" she sang, guessing that was his name, as she tapped the side of his mask. She decided this might be a good time to put her Konochi skills into use. "Why is Tobi out in the middle of no were?" she purred, tuning her voice down a few notches into a more womanly voice. She moved her hand down from his mask to rest on his chest, while her other hand gripped her thy hard. She hated, absolutely hated, doing this type of thing.

"Oh no reason~ Tobi and Pein were just out looking around for recruits~" Tobi chimed, as he slowly kept finding it more and more difficult to keep in character around this girl. 'The girl barely even did much, yet she's alertly able to affect me... Hm, she's pretty good.' Tobi though in his mind, alrety thinking of uses for her in the Akatsuki.

"recruits for what~?" she hummed, tracing patterns on the pale skin of his chest.

"The Akatsuki." Tobi Stated.

"And that is?" she hummed a bit more and rested her head on his chest. She felt his muscles ripple as he tensed, before he relaxed to her gentle humming.

"A criminal organization that Tobi and Pein are forming~" Tobi chimed, forcing himself to keep in character and keep from groping her. That wasn't something Tobi would do. Tobi is a good boy.

"Hmm, interesting..." she trailed off... Suddenly, and unexpectedly, she went limp. The heat finally becoming too much for her.

XxXxxxXxX

Madara was confused. No, he was beyond confused. He was dumbfounded. "Pein, the girl just fell asleep... In a man's arms, let alone a Shinobi's arms." He stated to the shadows. Pein materialized from the darkness and stood there, having had witnessed the whole thing.

"I believe she passed out... not fell asleep." Pein mumbled, slightly peeved that Madara was the one holding onto the girl, not him. For some odd reason he couldn't help but want her, there was just something that attracted him to her. Even if he only observed her so far, he still was entranced by her.

"Interesting..." Madara mumbled, now in his normal character, not Tobi's. He stood up with the girl held bridal style in his arms; Pein couldn't help but notice how gently he held her. He had to suppress a growl at Madara's actions. No, he was a god; he wouldn't let this little girl affect him. "What do you think?" Madara questioned as he laid the limp girls body of the side shore.

Pein eyed the girl's slim body, her pale skin was flawless, no scares marred her skin. She couldn't be a Konochi. All Konochi have scars, no matter how good they are. Then his eyes trailed across her body, judging by how defined her curves were, she was 14-15 years old. She wasn't even that old at all... Her raven black hair stuck to parts of her body, the mixture of her pale skin and her raven hair was entrancing. Then there was her mask. Why did she hide her face? Was she deformed? "We need to test her skills before we just add her to the Akatsuki." Pein said in his normal monotone. Secretly, in his mind, he hoped this girl was good. He wanted to converse with her and find out more about her. he wanted to spend more time with her...

"Agreed. She seems much too young to be of any good." Madara stated as he eyed her body to, trying to ignore the thoughts saying to take her and make her his. The young girl interested him, nothing more. At least that's what he kept telling himself.

Pein knelt down beside her his hand reaching for her mask.

"no." her voice growled, her small hand catching his wrist as she twisted into a kneeling position. She knelt there in a fighting stance readying herself for attack from the two men. But then her whole body twitched before she fell limp onto the ground again. Something was wrong with her, her Body wasn't functioning properly...

They stared at her.

She lay there unmoving, passed out once again.

Pein's eyes moved across her back, her muscles were defined under her skin, she was a Konochi, he was sure of it. Even if she didn't have scars, he was sure. Her reflexes from just a few moments ago proved it.

"Do you see that?" Madara knelt down beside her naked body and moved some of the hair away from her back, in between her shoulder blades laid a tattoo. No, not a tattoo. A seal. It was of an intricate looking cat, its fur made up of kanji. The cat sat there on her back, as if staring at them out of her skin.

Then its red eyes blinked, and its left ear twitched.

"What is that?" Pein questioned, staring at the living seal that lay on her back. Then he heard Madara growl lowly. Something wasn't right... the Seal...

"It's a forbidden Uchiha seal. This girl is an Uchiha. But the Seal..." he said as he rolled her onto her side and grasped her mask. Ripping it away from her face, both males gasped.

All of Pein's and Madara's thoughts evaporated, in front of them lay one of the most beautiful girls they ever seen. She had a cute, yet womanly face, pale perfect lips, strong jaw, perfectly shaped brows... she was breathtaking. A beauty.

Then she blinked her big pretty eyes open, explaining to both males why she wore her mask. Her eyes... they were pure red, no pupil, just a pure red iris. The girl was blind.

Hey eyes shot to look at the two males, confusing them. How did she know where they were if she was blind? Or was she even blind?

"Can you see us?" Pein asked, his voice a bit horse from the unexpected encounter with her beauty.

"..." the girl remained quiet as her eyes trained on her mask in Madara's hand. In a swift movement she was standing behind them, with her mask in place again. "Never, never take my mask again. My hideous face is something this world can do without." She said kneeling down by her cloths and starting to wrap her bindings around her chest.

Both of the males blinked in surprise and turned to the girl, she was freakishly fast, even for most Shinobi. She finished slipping on her cloths and turned to them. She was clad in ANBU clothing. The girl was an ex-ANBU...

"Join us." Madara stated, not asked. His voice was still of Madara's, not his alias Tobi.

They girl tiled her head to the side. "As you wish, Madara-sama~" She giggled at them and bowed. "Vallen Uchiha, at your service." She sang happily.
