Rin crept through the forest and sighed. I'll never find the Compound. Now I know why they call it "Hidden". Her white eyes searched the undergrowth as she found a suitable tree.
Her hands went to her weapon pouch. As she stuck some kunai in the ground beside of the tree, Rin became sleepy. I need to rest. Maybe just alittle nap, against this tree. But a song first.
A lovely song rose from her throat as she leaned against the old tree. A song of love and pain. Of memories and forgotten family. The sound slowly died away as the beautiful ninja drifted into sleep.
Itachi was whispered from the sleep-taken lips of Rin.

Itachi, stationed not too far away, heard the song and it reminded him of something. But he couldn't tell exactly what. A fact that annoyed him vaguely, it was very rare for him to forget something.
Swift leaps through the canopy brought him to the source. A woman with pale skin and silvery white locks. Sleeping, by the look of her closed lids and inattentiveness. She, too, reminded him of something. Of before...
His slates widened slightly in a most unusual fashion, for him, as he recognized her at last. His kissers parted and a name escaped them in a gentle whisper. Rin.

Her mind was murky as she slept, but a voice pierced the blankness. Her name was whispered with that voice, that familiar lilt. Rin's eyes opened slowly and at first they saw no one. Her head turned and a lone figure came into view. Who.....Itachi?? She sat up completely and rubbed her eyes as if she didn't believe her sight.

He nodded, a crease forming in his for head as he frowned. What are you doing here? His voice remained a soft velvet, but a hint of worry was embedded within. Another rare occurrence, he usually didn't express any emotion, let alone worry for someone else.He hadn't killed her for a reason, but he hadn't meant for her to ever find him again. Mostly for her own safety.

I'm...searching for...the Akatsuki. She paused a few times as she gathered her kunai knives and placed them in her pouch. I want to join. Her white eyes avoided his slate ones as she said these words.

Well you came to the right place then, I suppose. It wasn't quite true, the compound was a little bit further, but she had been pretty close. But why, exactly, did she want to join? His brow remained slightly furrowed as he voiced this aloud. And why? Of course, he couldn't let anyone in, or what would the point of a hidden place be? He would have to find out why she wanted in and why she deserved it...
--> OhOhC|| For anyone else reading this I know Itachi isn't the leader of the Akatsuki, but he will be for this because its easier. ^^

I want to be! Rin had always been somewhat of a smart-ass, and this time was no exception. I'm tired and hungry! I also wanted to find a sense of home, like it was when I was little. Her eyes looked at the ground, tearing as she remembered those happy days so long ago.

He smoothed his face into an expressionless mask and his eyes hardened. He had never felt a sense of home, and never planned to. Then you must prove you alligance and worth. Even though he didn't particularly want to turn her away, he would if she couldn't prove to him that she was loyal to them, and only them.

Tell me how. I will if I must. Her crystal eyes hardened and swept over Itachi's. Rin's face was like stone as her thoughts raced. Wonder what he wants me to do. Probably kill someone. Well I'll do it gladly. Her hand strayed to her pouch and she fingered a kunai knife.
Itachi. I will gladly do anything you want me to. I will be accepted!

His mask remained intact except for his brow rose slightly. She seemed determined. But he couldn't imagine why she would want to join him. Then capture Gaara. The one-tailed demon. He didn't know if she could do it, but it was the only way to be sure. Come back to this spot in 3 days with him, or don't come back at all. It might have sounded cruel, but it was the way of the Akatsuki. His way.
Itachi turned around then and started to walk away, not in the direction of their hideout though, of course. He wouldn't lead her there until he was positive of her loyalty and was sure she was competent.
