Chapter 6

Konan’s curse mark, an indescribable love, and what Naruto desires.

XXXXXX

For the past week, Konan has been traveling with her newest partner, Tobi. A man who, she hardly knows, was forced to be partners by their leader that so happens to be a longtime friend of hers. She was reluctant at first, but knew she could trust her friend's decision and was certain he had a good explanation as to why. After a day of traveling, she had fully accepted it, knowing that questioning it, wouldn't change the fact they were partners. The only thing she asked was for the two to at least talk or make some kind of conversation, as the whole time they traveled, it was in pure silence, and it was getting to her.

It's true that she never talks in any of the meetings, it's because she has absolute faith in her friend's decisions. Fallowing every order, he gives her without question, however, this latest one, got her to rethink about his decision for once. Even after accepting it, she still wondered, why now, why was she partnered with someone, she never once been asked to, so why now. Was it because she failed to see whom the intruders were or did Nagato have this all planned in the beginning.

It was all too confusing for her and every time she thought about it; it would give her a huge headache and to make matters worse, her right shoulder started acting up. Right where the neck and shoulder meet, it would start throbbing from time to time. Occasionally, it would heat up as if it were on fire, causing her vision to blur and would eventually she would fall over and pass out. Not once, did her so-called “partner” ever ask if she were okay, not that she cared, well, maybe she did, a little, but not so much that it'd change her outlook on him, just enough to show her he had her back.

However, before she could ever doubt him, he'd shows her a softer side from that tough exterior one he always shows, the one if you were to cross him; he'll kill you without a second thought, by catching her in his arms just as she would pass out. She didn't know why this was happing to her, why she felt this immense pain, but that was just the beginning. Soon after she would pass out, images of her past would flash in her dreams and not the happy ones either. Similar to the genjutsu she was put under by her partner, but less severe.

The visions were always the same, but in different order, the only one that wasn't, was the last one, which wasn't from her past. It was more like the present or future, as she would always see her partner with his back to her in his Akatsuki outfit, with nothing but the darkness surrounding him. As he slowly turned to face her, his body doing the same, and would slowly come closer, stopping just a few feet away from her but when she stares at his orange swirled masked. It would suddenly crack, starting from the middle and would spread until it was completely covered in it, and shatter.

As the fragments of his mask, fell towards the invisible floor below, her eyes would never leave his face, wondering what it was he was trying to hide. What she would see were two fang-like canines poking out from under his upper lip and six feral deep whisker marks, three on each side. As for the rest of his face it was hidden from her by the dark shadow, she would always take a step closer towards him, trying to get a better look. However, every time she would, he would shake his head, telling her no but she wouldn't listen and would try to get closer only for him to lower his head. Soon as she get too close, his head shoots up and suddenly be replaced with a fox-like being that would lung at her.

That's when she would wake up in the same spot as always, lying close to their campfire as her companion would be sitting on a log staring up at the moon as if it were calling him. And today was no different, as the very same thing happen earlier that day, but she did find it bizarre, that at the end of her dreams, she would see her partner. Before she could ponder on that Naruto spoke.

“I see that you're finally awake,” he called out not bothering to look at her.

“So, the masked man decides to talk,” she replied dryly, still staring at him.

Naruto slowly lowered his head, returning her gaze, and said, “My apologies. I didn't know you wanted to talk; if I'd known, I would've tried harder.”

“Try? When did you try,” she asked him crossing her arms over her chest almost as if she was pouting.

She was going to say more but a sharp pain in her right shoulder stopped her as she placed her hand on it, and promoted Naruto to stand up and walk over to her.

Knelling next to her he asked, “Is it your shoulder?”

Konan was a bit shocked to see her so-called partner knelling next to her and was thinking 'now he cares,' but she wasn't going to let him know that.

“It's alright, I'm fine,” she told as she stood up but before she could fully stand, a sharp pain coursed thought her entire body causing her to fall to her knees, still holding on to her shoulder. She placed her free hand the on the ground to keep herself from falling over.

“Fine my ass,” Naruto mumbled to himself as he watched his partner fall to her knees in agony.

From what he could tell, this one was far painfully then her previous ones. He actually pitied her; it's not easy going through what she is now. He was surprised she could handle it, but if her were to let this continue, she would most likely die from the pain. If not, it would be due to the changes to her body, mostly from her chakra than anything else, before that can happen, he had to check its progress. Therefore, he positioned himself behind her and told her what to do.

“Take of your coat off,” he demanded in a tone that said do as I say or else, but Konan wasn't in the mood to take orders, not even Pain dared ordered her on one of her monthly dates.

“I said I was fine,” Konan gritted threw her teeth as sweat stated to form on her forehead, but her stubbornness only aggravated him.

“Is this what you call fine,” he told her placing his hand where her's was and squeezed. Forcing her to gasp as she fell face first to the ground, clenching her teeth she looked up at him form the corner of her eyes. “I'm going to ask you one more time, take off your coat,” he threatened and to make sure she understood, he gave her shoulder another squeeze.

“Okay,” she exclaimed.

After hearing her answer, Naruto removed his hand from her shoulder and let her sit up. As she began to undo her coat, he closed his right eye and started pumping some Kyuubi chakra into it, changing it from its azure color, to crimson red. Opening his eye, he noticed her coat was now below her shoulders and was waiting for him to do whatever he was planning. He also noticed that she wore a white tank top instead of her usual shirt but didn't press on that matter; he had something more important to take care of. Averting his eyes from her shirt towards the spot where the cause of her pain originating from, and wasn't surprised by what he saw.

Two spirals now replaced the two dots, which were originally there, with the ends, connecting with one another forming what looked like an eight on its side, but there was more. Thanks to his Kyuubi eye, he could see the mark pulsing as if it were alive. After seeing it, he knew why she was in so much pain and knew what must be done.

'I should've known,' he thought as he unstrapped his right glove and took it off, then pumped some Kyuubi chakra in to his hand, getting it to emit a light red color. 'It's forcing itself to the next stage; if I let this continue, she'll die,' he added as he placed his hand on her shoulder.

Konan on the other hand, who undid her jacket as her partner ordered, and slid it down under her shoulders after she whipped the dirt of her face with her hand. As she waited, a dirty thought passed through her head; she thought, what if he was going to take advantage of her in her weaken state. It's not as if she were capable of stopping him if he tried not that she would mind. Suddenly, her face heated up at that last part and couldn't believe what she thought.

'I wouldn't mind,' she thought, dumbstruck by it. 'H-How could I think of something like that, I don't even know who he is, let alone what he looks like….' She then trailed off for getting about the pain in her shoulder then thought, 'But, there is something about him that attracts me, I just don't know what it is?'

Before she could ponder on that thought, she felt something cool touch her right shoulder snapped her out of her thoughts and caused her to tense up. She was going to ask what he were doing, but that thought died once she felt a soothing sensation course throughout her entire body. Relieving the pain, she already forgot not that long ago, but it also felt as if it were doing more like soothing her soul. As time passed on, she could feel her whole body relaxing, causing small moan to escape her lips, which Naruto heard and was his cue to stop.

Once he did, Konan let out a moan of disappointment then blushed, hoping her partner didn't hear her, which he but didn't show it. She looked back and noticed he was putting his glove back on, thinking he must have finished, and then noticed her shoulder wasn't causing her any pain. She was amazed he was able to do that despite the fact he forced her to undo her coat, instead of explaining why. After she stood up, she turned to face Naruto, and was going to ask him what he did, but he spoke first.

“So, how does your shoulder feel,” he asked with his back turned to her as he fixed his glove.

“Better,” she answered rolling her shoulder then said, “But, what was it that you did?”

She knew it had to be some kind of medical ninjutsu however; there was something different about his.

“Just some medical ninjutsu I picked up,” he half lied.

It was true, he did use some form of medical ninjutsu however his was a bit different as he used the Kyuubi's chakra, instead of his own. What she was unaware of was the mark on her shoulder, was more than just a decoration. That small little design was more than meets the eye, as it holds unimaginable powers from what he read in Orochimaru's lab notes about curse marks. After reading the said notes, he found it quite fascinating how it was possible to give someone that kind of power; therefore, he decided to make one of his own. Taking the same concept that Orochimaru had done and altered it to his liking and fused some of the Kyuubi's chakra he possesses, within it.

The only problem was he never tested it, until now, and from what he learned from Anko, the curse mark chooses its host. It was why he had to choose who was capable of wielding his mark, but that wasn't an easy task. There could be an innumerable amount of reasons why the mark could reject the host he chooses. Luckily, it seemed to accept the person he did choose as it was already trying to force itself into its next stage. If it weren't for him stopping its progress, Konan would've died within the next couple of days.

Frankly, it surprised him by how quickly it accepted her. The reason he didn't want to be partnered with her was so he could watch her from a far. Now, he was grateful Pain decided to have them partnered together as it would be much harder for him if they weren't. From what he could tell, the curse mark seemed to accept her as its host and having it force itself to the next stage, meant she had a strong will of her own. However, he also learned that her body, or perhaps any female body, was not strong enough to with stand the sudden change in level without his help, causing them to suffer immense pain. This was why he slowed it down, now he had to use his alternative way to advance her curse mark to its next stage.

If he doesn't do anything soon, and the mark tries to activate itself again, she would surely die this time, and he could not let that happen. Not that he cared about her, he just didn't want Pain on his case, and it was the first time he gave someone his curse mark that showed good results. Therefore, he was decided to keep her alive, even if, what he plans to do might change the way she thinks about him, but he could care less. All that matters is she stays alive, so he could see if she were capable of fully wielding his curse mark.

Little did he know that he too had a small attraction to her, but was only a small fraction, that would soon change the way he thought about her?

“Well, thanks, I guess? If it weren't for you; I'd still be in pain,” she told him who just sneered getting her narrow her eyes a bit, as she stood up.

“Don't take it the wrong, I only helped so you wouldn't be a bother to me,” he answered turning to face her as she narrowed her eyes even farther. “I was getting sick of you passing out every day and slowing me down,” he added, enraging her even more.

Without thinking she sent a couple of paper shurikens at him that suddenly went ablaze making her eyes widen in shock, as for Naruto he stood unfazed by her actions, but was surprised by her flaming shurikens. Before they could make contact, a fierce wind manifested around Naruto, tearing the shurikens to shreds as the flames disappear. Konan was still in shock, seeing as it was the first time she ever seen her paper shurikens set on fire and had no idea how, since she doesn't have fire as one of her chakra natures. Naruto on the other hand, smirked under his mask seeing, as his curse mark seemed to be taking effect and took note of her shocked face, thinking she must've used it unconsciously. The fact remained though, she had the nerve to attack him, but let it slid for now, and instead, he walked up to her and took his mask off soon as he reached her.

Konan, who was still trying to figure out how her paper shurikens caught on fire without burning to ash, never noticed Naruto walk up to her nor take off his mask. Not until he kissed her, did she finally noticed, she tried to pushing him off but Naruto kept his hold on her, and the longer they kissed, the more arouse she became. Soon enough, she gave in and wrapped her arms around his neck, and for some unknown reason, her body started heating up. Naruto was the one to make the next move as he slowly opened her coat, enough for her to slip her arms out, which she did with no hesitation and let it fall to the ground.

It was Konan who was the one break their intermit kiss and was too caught up in the heat of the moment to realize her masked partner, did not have his mask on. Instead, she was more worried about taking his jacket off then his face, and when she did her face, turn beat red. Under his jacket he hid a nicely toned body that most men would kill for, as he was shirtless, and couldn't believe her eyes as she drag both her hands down his chest and his toned abs. She stopped after her hands reached his pants unconsciously licked her lips as she unzipped them. In one swift motion, she pulled down his pants along with his underwear and her eyes widen a bit seeing his semi-hard penis that looked to be about 8 inches, if were fully erected.

After Konan broke their kiss, Naruto, who stood as he watch her unzip his jacket, he noticed Konan didn't realize his mask was off and averted his attention to her curse mark, which was now active. With his right eye now normal and his left eye closed, all he could see was the curse mark, so he opened his left eye. It felt weird to have both his eyes open at once since his left eye was constantly in its Kyuubi mode, which gives him a wide variety of abilities such as: strong genjutsus, low light vision, the ability to see ones chakra, and amongst many others. As for his vision, it was now split; with his left eye, he could see her curse mark pulsing as it leaked red chakra similar to the Kyuubi's chakra. And for his right, all it could see was her curse mark and nothing more.

Before he could think of anything else, he let out a low groan as he felt Konan's tongue lick the backside of his penis up to his tip. Getting the rest of his cock hard, which seem to excite her even further, as she began to lick it some more while slowly stroking it and would lick up any pre-cum that would dare to show itself. After some time, she took the head of his cock in her mouth, which sent shivers up his spine, and started to bob her head, up and down his shaft making, slurping sounds as she did. Using her hand, she would also stroke him in the same motion her head moved while twirling her tongue around his cock.

Having her not only giving him head, but also having her stroke him were enough to make him blow his load, and with the wet slurping sounds she made, didn't help his concentration. As for Konan, she could hear all of Naruto's low growls coming from his throat and after hearing he grunt her name, she knew he was close to giving her, her prize, and made her bob her head even faster. That's when Naruto unconsciously grabbed the back of Konan's head and thrust his hip forward, while leaning his head back releasing his load in Konan's mouth. She eagerly accepted it; she was a bit surprised when he grabbed her head, but didn't suspect him to shot so much sperm as some of it seeped out past her lips.

After swallowing her prize, she used her finger to collect the sum on her face that she missed, as well as the ones left on Naruto's penis. After cleaning his rod, she looked up at her masked partner and realized he wasn't wearing his mask so she got a good look at his face. Seeing his six feral deep whiskers mark that where on his face, two fangs poking out from his upper lip, that reminded her of her dream, and his one azure color eye but wonder why his left eye were closed. She soon push that thought aside after she noticed how wet she was then started to rub her thighs together. She couldn't remember how the two got in the situation they were in now, but one thing she knew was; she wanted more of him, now.

As a way to showing him, she took of her tank top and threw it off to the side showing him her bare breasts. He took the hint and removed his both his pants before she could start removing her's, and stopped her before she could even try to do the same. Once he stopped her, he leaned her back on the ground, and moved one of his hands down to her pants, grabbing hold of them, and using his wind chakra, he tore them off. He couldn't say if she had an extra pair or not, but it's was too late for that now as for her sandals he could care less since there weren't important and switch his focus back to her.

This would be the third time he seen her naked, but was the first he was able to bask in its glory seeing she had a nice figure, her creamy skin and noticed four piercings surrounded her navel. His eye then trailed up to her luscious chest, that were the right proportion to her body then his eye met her amber ones. She looked cute when her face was flustered, and with the light from the campfire, he could see how beautiful she truly was, and kind of regretted threating the way he did. His true motive for doing this was so he could advance her curse mark to its next level, but now he wasn't sure if were for that or some other reason.

While he was pondering on that thought Konan, while waiting, watched him look at her body and when they made eye contact she started to get self-conscious about herself. Thinking such thoughts, as 'what if I'm not good enough' or 'maybe there is something he doesn't like about me.' The more the time passes the more her thoughts became true to her, prompting her to say something.

“Is there something wrong,” she asked, fearing his answer, only for him to smirk in reply.

“No, I was just admiring how beautiful you look,” he told her making her blush as he moved in capturing her lips with his, cutting her off from saying anything else.

Slipping his tongue in her mouth and sucking on her tongue, causing her to moan, his right hand slowly made its way down her body, while she was rubbing his back. His hand slowly made its way to her left breast and gave it a light squeeze getting her to moan into his mouth as a response. Caressing it for a bit longer, while pinching her nipple, his hand moved farther down, letting his fingers tips lightly drag across her cool smooth skin, sending chills up her spin, as they made their way towards her woman hood. Reaching their destination, He placed his hands over her entrance feeling the heat that emitted from it and slowly stroked between her folds with his middle finger, getting her body to tense up as she arched her back a bit.

It was Naruto who broke their kiss this time and moved his head over to the right side of her face and started kissing neck letting her catch her breath, which was hard with his finger rubbing her lower lips. She started moving her hip in response to his rubbing and Naruto answered her by sticking his middle finger into her cunt getting her to arch her back like a bow, as squish wet sounds echoed throughout the air. He could tell it must have been awhile since she has been with anybody by how tight she was since it was hard for him to move his fingers in her.

“It must've been awhile since you've last been with someone,” Naruto asked her as he opened his left eye seeing her curse mark pulsing a little faster.

“Being in… an organization… full of S-rank… ninjas… doesn't give you… much of a… love life,” Konan answered between pants, moving her hips more towards his finger.

“And I'm sure Pain seem too busy to notice you,” he replied but she ignored his question as he moved his head down to her collarbone and lightly kissed it.

He then slipped another finger in her cunt, getting her moan as he moved his head down to her right breast, and started to finger fuck her a little faster. Using his fingers, he rubbed the inside of her pussy causing her walls to clamp around them making it harder for him to move 'em as more of her love nectar flowed out making a small puddle on the ground. He then removed his fingers from her within her, to her displeasure, and brought 'em to his face and lick them clean in front of her enjoying the taste as it made her blushed cheeks to deepen. She thought he might go back to finger fucking her some more, but instead, he went back and attacked her breasts. Using both of his hands, he caressed both breasts as he sucked on her right nipple, nibbling it with his teeth while flicking it with his tongue, driving her insane.

Whenever he either nibble or flick her nipples, she would dig her nails into his back and arch her back begging him for more, which he complied. He eventually stopped fondling her breasts and began moving his head lower to her woman hood; he could tell how anxious Konan was getting by her breathing, as it would get heavier the closer got. He could see how swollen her lips were, as more of her love nectar seeped out, which he eagerly licked. Konan however, didn't feel like waiting any longer as she grabbed the back of his head and pushed him deeper into her pussy. Naruto just chuckled at her antics and did what she wanted and stuck his tongue as far as it could go inside her, getting her to firmly grip his hair.

He started tongue fucking her, as he licked every nick and cranny of her cavernous, while she moved her hips in sync with his tongue moving it deeper inside her. He used the sound of her breathing and the way her body reacted to his touch as a way to find what spots pleased her more. Moving his right hand above her pussy lips, and using his thumb, he rubbed her clit causing her to instinctively push his head further into her pussy as she moved her hips. Not long after her body started, twitching and he knew she was close to her release.

“To-Tobi… I'm… I'm going… I'm going to…,” was what she manage to say before her body tensed up as she came.

Naruto was ready for her as she released her sweet nectar in his face, drinking it willingly, not letting a single drop escape. Wiping his mouth clean, he looked up at Konan, who was still recovering from her high, and took the chance to check her cures mark. Opening his left eye, seeing that it was pulsing quicker than before, and knew that it was almost time for it to reactivate and forcing itself to the next level. Therefore, he positioned himself back on top of her and watched her slowly come back down from her high then kissed her, letting her taste herself.

After she fully recovered, Naruto broke their kiss and slowly rubbed her folds with the tip of his cock as he stared into her amber colored eyes. Konan knew what he was trying to say, and was a bit hesitant at first but since she had already, come this far, might as go all the way, and then gave him a nod. Once she gave the okay, he began to push the head of his cock in her folds, finding her to be a bit tighter then he thought. Finally getting the his head in, he began pushing the rest of his member in, stretching her to her limit as she dug her nails into his back from the pain it caused her.

Soon as he was able to get his member all the way in he stopped there, so she could adjust to his size and kissed her. The kiss didn't last long once Konan started moving her hips and he answered by slowly moving in and out of her. Eventually, their pace began to pick up and the two's bodies were soon slamming into each other, with the sounds of flesh hitting flesh echoing throughout the woods. With every thrust, Naruto would go deeper and deeper inside Konan's pussy, to the point he was hitting her back wall, the entrance to her womb.

Causing her body to tense up and her walls to grip him even tighter, making hit harder for him to move, but caused the both much pleasure. However, Naruto didn't stop there as he suddenly picked her body and rested her body on his thighs while he sat on his knees. She then wrapped her arms around his neck while wrapping her legs around his waist while he picked her up and repeatedly slammed her onto his rod. Her vision was starting to get blurrier by the minute, as she was in complete bliss, and knew she was heading to yet to another orgasim.

“I'm… I'm... I'm…,” was all Konan could manage to say as Naruto kept slamming into her.

He was able to catch what she said and was close to his own but didn't say anything as he tried concentrating on not blowing his load inside her. He couldn't afford for her to get pregnant and once her walls clamped down around his member, he saw wave-like markings spread from her curse mark and across her body. They were in two different colors one in green and the other in red, he knew what it meant and had to act quickly. Moving his head over towards her curse mark, he stuck his fangs into the center of both spirals just as she came, and started pumping some Kyuubi chakra into her mark causing the wave-like markings to stop and revert to the curse mark.

With all his focus on her curse mark, he lost concentration on holding back his load that started traveling through his member. Remembering in the last minute, he pulled out and shot his load all over her, covering her chest, belly, and legs. Some even managed to hit her in the face. After hitting her orgasim, and what Naruto did, was too much for her Konan to handle, as she passed out and leaned on him. Leaving him to care for her once again, not that he cared, what the two just shared, he thought she deserved a rest. With that in mind, he picked her up, placed her by the campfire, then cleaned her up and covered her with a blanket, then went to retrieve her clothes.

“I wonder if she'll get mad if she wakes up naked again,” he asked himself, then chuckled at his own question.

The next morning, Konan woke up relaxed then she has been in years, but couldn't figure out why. Stretching her arms, she realized she was, once again, naked, and her eyes narrowed in anger as they shot their way towards her masked partner, who was leaning against a tree and her guess he was still sleeping. She was going to yell at him, but the memories from what happen last night flashed in her mind, making her blush like a tomato. She couldn't tell if it really happened were real or if she had one hell of a dream that felt too realistic, the only way she could find out was ask her masked partner.

“You seem to be relaxed,” Naruto spoke with a slight chuckle, startling her, then added, “Judging by your face, you remember what happen last night?”

That's when Konan's eyes widen and her blush deepened further.

“You mean to tell me that actually happen,” she asked dumbfounded only to get a simple nod from him. She seemed to accept it as the images in her head seemed real enough, and could clearly remember how big he felt insider her, then realize she couldn't remember if he came in her or not. “Did you…,” she began but Naruto interrupted her.

“No, I did not; I pulled out,” he told her as she breathed a sigh of relief. “I can't afford for you to get pregnant,” he added as he stood up and tossed her something.

She caught it, seeing it was her coat warped a round a scroll and wondered what happened to the rest of her clothes.

“Where's the rest,” she ask forgetting Naruto tore 'em up.

“Don't you remember,” he replied then watched her think it over only for her to shake her head. “Well to refresh your memory, I tore them up last night, they were in my way,” he informed her as he folded his arms over his chest.

“In your way,” she repeated, a bit confused, and then realized what he meant. “They were only in your way because you didn't let me take them off,” she exclaimed but Naruto didn't seem to care.

“What's done is done. Nothing can change the past, so hurry up and change,” he ordered her, who just glared at him in response.

'Yeah, yeah, you're lucky I have an extra pair of clothes,” she whispered to herself as she stood up wrapping the blanket around her frame and walked off.

“I heard that,” he called out to her.

“Like I care,” she replied loud enough for him to hear then disappeared behind some trees.

Naruto just smirked at her reply, for some reason he likes woman who were feisty and could only blame Anko for that. As he waited for his blue haired partner to returned, hopefully, fully clothed, and then sensed something off to the side, something familiar.

“Quit hiding and come out,” he called out.

Not that far away Itachi appeared out from behind a tree.

“It seems you grown accustom to your new partner,” he told his friend, who smirked under his mask.

“You can say that, but enough talk, tell me what you found out,” Naruto replied changing the subject to a more important matter.

Itachi understood and nodded then said, “It seems you're suspicions where right; Konoha as officially labeled you a missing-nin.”

Naruto wasn't that surprised by what his friend said, he figure that much when he remembered his father's security system, how it records whoever deactivates the barrier around the estate. By the time he remembered, it was far too late for him to turn back and had to accept the fact he might be labeled a missing-nin. It wasn't being labeled a missing-nin that bothered him; he could care less about it, it was the people he cared about that would be hurt far worse. If he could, he would rather still be labeled just plain missing, but what's done is done and nothing he could do would change that.

“It figures,” Naruto replied showing no emotions, which worried Itachi, not that he showed it either. “Besides, it doesn't change a thing. The only difference is I'll have hunter-nin after me, which will be easy to avoid since I was their top ninja.”

Itachi understood what his friend was saying and knew he could handle himself; however, there was one thing that bother him.

“There's something I want to ask you before I take my leave,” Itachi said getting his friend's attention.

“And that is,” Naruto replied, knowing what he was going to ask.

“It's about your partner, when we first met her. What was it that you did to her,” Itachi asked as it has been eating at him for a while now.

“About what, me biting her,” Naruto asked getting a nod from his friend. “I won't go into much detail, but I will tell you this. I placed a curse mark of my own on her,” he told him making Itachi's eyes widen a bit.

“You mean like the one Anko has,” Itachi replied not believing what his friend just told him.

“In a way, yes, however, unlike Anko's, mine seems to accept its host no matter whom I choose? The only drawback is, the host has to have a strong enough body to use it, so ordinary people would die if I were to place it on them,” he informed him. “But, It mostly designed it for women,” Naruto added, confusing Itachi.

“And, why is that,” Itachi asked.

“There are certain precautions that take place in order for the mark to advance to it next stage, and I rather not do that with a man, so let's leave it at that,” Naruto replied ending that little conversation.

“Far enough, but could you at least tell me what it does,” Itachi said not grasping the difference between his and Orochimaru's.

“Again, I'll won't go into full detail, but all you need to know is it can give its host more than one chakra nature, among other things,” he informed him and left it at that. “Is that all you wanted to talk about,” he asked getting a nod from Itachi. “Good, you should leave now before Konan returns, she might suspect something,” he added getting another nod from him.

“I'm more worried about what you do to her, if she recognizes your face and realizes who you really are,” Itachi told him knowing how curl his friend could be at times.

“If she couldn't remember me tearing her pants off, I'm sure she won't remember my face, let alone recognize it,” Naruto said sarcastically, only for his friend to shake his head in response then poof away.

After walking a good distance away from Naruto, Konan opened her scroll to a certain spot, and with a hand sign, a pair of clothes poofed out. It was her Akatsuki outfit that she usual wears that consist of a shirt with large hemline on the front, which exposed her arms, her back, the lateral part of her breast and her belly. There was also a tight blue pants that also functioned as her shoes, with white high heels, a black thong with red clouds on the front and a Akatsuki coat, which she put back in the scroll. While she changed, she recalled the event that happened last night, one part in particular, made her think as she could clear remember her partner's face, since his mask was off.

Making a mental image of his face, she removed the feral whisker like marks she saw on his cheeks and his fangs, then imagined both his eyes were open and had his azure color she saw. The last part was trying to imagine his black color hair a sun kiss blond color, after picturing all that her eyes widen and she couldn't believe what she imagined. The mental picture she had was none other than the Yondaime Hokage, but that was impossible since he was still head of his village, which lead to only one conclusion.

“I had sex with Naruto Namikaze,” Konan said to herself own disbelief as she blushed.

She heard that he disappeared, but for him to be in their organization, and so happened to be partnered with him made her wonder if she were dreaming. There was no possible way to explain it, how could one of the strongest Hokage's son, join their organization, unless he got wind of their plans beforehand and was ordered to infiltrate them to leak out information about them. If so, she had no other choice but to eliminate him, perhaps this was the reason why Pain had them partnered together, to find out his identity and purpose for being in their organization.

“I knew something was fishy about him, soon as I laid my eyes on him, from his mask to the way he acts, not to mention his name, come on, who goes by the name of Tobi anyways,” she said to herself.

The more she thought about it the angrier, she became. Putting her scroll away she began coming up with a plan in order to take him out, knowing full well she couldn't best him in a full on fight therefore, she would have to make it quick. By the time she made it back to where she left Naruto, she saw him just standing there waiting for her return with his back turn, which made it perfect for her surprise attack. When she was close enough, Naruto spoke up.

“It's about damn time,” he called out to her not bothering to turn around. “Do you know how long I've been waiting? That's why I hate being partnered with women; they take forever to change,” he added getting Konan pissed.

“Sorry for keeping the great Naruto Namikaze WAITING,” Konan exclaim, whilst throwing her paper shurikens at him as he slowly turned towards her.

“What did you say,” Naruto asked in disbelief as he turned around.

Konan watched, in slow motion, as her paper shurikens made their way towards their target, about halfway, they suddenly set ablaze similar to what happen last night. These flames however, were larger than last time, looking like miniature fireballs that made their way towards Naruto. She didn't know how she did it, but could careless at the time; as long as they hit and kill him, she was fine with it. As for Naruto, once he turned around he was suddenly impaled by twenty fire shurikens.

Before he could do anything, the fire around the paper shurikens suddenly set him ablaze getting him to let out a bloodcurdling scream as his entire body was burn to a crisp. Just watching him burn, made her pitied him, but that's what he deserved for trying to infiltrate their organization. As his screams stopped, so did the flames and all Konan could see was a charcoal version of what looked like Naruto fell to his knees and then face first towards the ground? Before she could even celebrate, someone's arm suddenly wrapped around her midsection and then felt the cold steel of a kunai pressed to her throat.

“Now that was quite interesting,” a familiar voice said to her.

She was in complete shock as the voice was no other than, Naruto Namikaze, who she literally saw burn to death not moments ago, just speak to her. She couldn't even reply, not with a kunai to the throat, so she stayed quite or in other words, to shock to say a thing.

“If I'm not mistaken you did something similar last night, but wasn't as powerful as it is now. To think, you've gain that kind of power in such a short amount of time. I was right to choose you,” he told her only to confuse her but she was still to shaken up to form any words so he continued talking. “But you should've seen the look on your face when your shurikens hit my living clone; you had such a smug look on that pretty face of yours, thinking you've killed me. It was priceless,” he added, mocking her at her failed, attempt to kill him.

“You knew I would try to attack you,” Konan finally manage to say staring at the dead body she thought was Naruto.

“Of course I knew, how else did you think I manage to surprise you,” he answered dryly.

“But, how,” she asked not comprehending how it was possible, unless he was watching her the whole time she were gone.

“It's simple, since you did see my face last night; it was only a matter of time until you figured it out. At first, I wasn't sure you would notice but I knew you how smart you were, so I left one of my living clones. There pretty handy don't you think. They act exactly like a living human being, from bleeding to an actual heartbeat, it was perfect for what you might have planned,” he informed her.

“What would you done if I didn't attack,” she asked.

“If you didn't attack, I would've had my clone take my place for a while then cast a genjutsu on you and switch places. You would've never known or suspect a thing,” he replied.

Konan didn't know what to think everything happened so fast, first, she starts have shoulder pains and passing out, and then he stops it, which lead them to having intercourse. Then to top it all off, she figures out whom he really is, tries to kill him, only for her to fall right in his trap. Was this how she was going to die here, by a Konoha shinobi, at that? If it were going to end like this, she at least wanted to know what his mission was before she died.

“Before you kill me,” Konan said getting his attention. “At least tell me why you infiltrated our organization, was it an order from your Hokage, or should I say, your otosan,” she asked only to hear Naruto start laughing.

“Orders, from my otosan,” Naruto repeated as he laughed. “What makes you think I take orders from him,” he asked her.

“But, aren't you a Konoha shinobi,” Konan asked dumfounded by his answer.

“Not anymore; I cut my ties to that village after I helped a friend annihilate his entire clan,” he informed her who was in complete shock. “So, in other words, I don't take orders from no one. Not even Pain.”

“So, in the end, I was the fool. To even think I was capable of defeating you, even if it was a sneak attack,” Konan admitted in a whisper, accepting what was to come next and closed her eyes. “I'm ready,” she told him as tears began to form.

She just stood there waiting for him to slit her throat; everything around her got quite and began to slow down. It was as if time itself were waiting for him to make his finally move. It would the second time she was near death's door, however, this time; there was no one here to rescue her. What she heard Naruto said next though, made her eyes widen in shock.

“For what, did you actually think I was going to kill you,” he told her, removing kunai from her throat.

As for Konan, she couldn't believe what she just heard; her legs were shaking from the thought of almost dying, again. Soon as he removed his arm from her midsection, her legs gave out and she fell to her knees and silently cried to herself. Naruto on the other hand, was in awkward situation, not only did he pull a kunai on his partner throat, even though she attacked him first. He now had a few things to explain to her before they continued their way.

“Alright, before we head off theirs a few things need to tell you,” Naruto said, but Konan was still in crying and didn't hear him. “Can you quit crying already, you're a kunoichi for god sakes,” he yelled at her.

“Sorry for not being the son of a Hokage, unlike you, I didn't live a happy life and just a moment ago, I thought I was going to die, so I'm sorry if I'm too emotional!” Konan shot back wiping her tears with her hand as Naruto sighed.

“Your right, I'm sorry,” he apologized to her, shocking her. “You probably went to hell and back, fighting tooth and nail, just to survive, while I was spoon feed during my childhood.” He began as he crouched down getting Konan to look at him as he continued. “But, by the age of five, something happened to me that caused me to distance myself from my village except for a select few,” he add as he took off his mask letting her see his face.

“Why are you telling me this,” she ask as he always acts cold towards her and now, he suddenly acting nice, she didn't understand.

“We're partners, right,” he answered with a foxy grin, making her blush a bit, but advert her eyes from his.

“Like you care,” she replied as she looked at the ground not convinced by his words, no matter how true they may sound.

Naruto let out another sigh as he reached his hand into his back pouch and pulled out something covered in cloth and held it in her view.

“What's that,” she asked him not sure what he was trying to pull.

“It's something I made for you,” he told her, which only confused her and made her wonder what he could possibly make for her.

She hesitated at first, but eventually took it from him and after removing the cloth, seeing it was a three-pronged kunai with an amber color hilt and blue blade. After a closer inspection, she realized it was the same kunai the Yondaime using for his hiraishin no jutsu, then wonder why he was giving her this for, and why the blade was blue.

“Why are you giving me this,” she asked having no idea why.

“Well, I did make it for you, so it's only fitting that I give it to you, right,” he told her in a sweet caring voice that made her look at him as he had yet another foxy grin on. “I only give those to people I can trust,” he added getting her to rethink about it, and then hold out his kunai for him to take back, getting a questionable look from him. “What are you doing,” he asked her.

“You said you only give this to people you trust, right,” she asked getting him to nod in reply. “Then I don't deserve it since I attacked you, even if it were a clone, the fact remains, I still attacked,” she told him only for him to laugh.

“That's what you're worried about,” he laughed, getting her to look at him with a confused look. “You shouldn't trouble yourself to much about that; I planned for you to attack me anyways. I wanted to see your new abilities and frankly, I still can't figure out how you're able to set your paper shurikens on fire,” he told her as he thought about that last part.

So many things flowed through Konan's head at that moment, trying to figure out what was going through her partner's head but only one word could come to mind, enigma. The more she thought about it, the more her head hurt. She could remember all the details of some of his mission she heard from Pain, how none of his victims ever left alive and were gruesomely killed, beyond recognition. If he had her a knife point, then why let her live, what makes her so different from any other person he killed, besides being partners. It made no sense and to only way she would get any answers was to ask the man himself.

“Can I ask you something,” Konan asked, getting his attention as she stared at the kunai in her hands.

“I guess it wouldn't hurt, so what is it that you want to ask,” Naruto replied as he watched her face and could tell there was something bothering her.

“Tell me, why didn't you kill me? What makes me so different from any other person you've killed?!” She unloaded, getting him to stand up as he scratched the back of his head in thought.

“I knew not killing her would bring this up,” he mumbled to himself then sighed. “Look, I don't like to explain myself, so all I'm going to say is; the reason I didn't kill you then was because I choose you. That's all you need to know,” he told her, which added more questions for her.

“Because you choose me, what does that even mean,” Konan asked him as it was the second time he said that and she still didn't understand what he meant by it.

“Didn't you hear me, I don't like explaining myself. You'll learn soon enough and besides…,” he began as he crouched back down. “How could I kill such a beautiful woman who I've had the privilege to taste,” he said making her blush, knowing what he meant. “Anyway we should get going. We're still a day's travel from Kumo,” he informed her as he stood up and reached his hand out for her.

She started at his hand for a bit before she took hold of it, letting him hoist her to her feet. After he let her go, she looked back at the kunai he gave her and wondered if she could trust him or was this going to lead her to another trap. But, for some reason she felt happy, that he would give her something this important and gripped the handle tightly in her hand before she put it away. Once she secured the kunai in her back pouch, she looked to see where Naruto was, finding he were just a few feet away with his arms folded over his chest in deep thought. For some unknown reason, he still had his mask off.

“Ah, Tobi,” she called out to him using his fake aliases, since she wasn't sure if she could call him by his real name.

“When it's just the two of us, just call me Naruto,” he told her getting a nod form as he saw a small smile tug at her lips. “We should be on our way; I'd like to get there by morning,” he added as he placed his mask back on and walked off.

“Before we leave…,” Konan spoke, getting him to halt and look back at her.

“What is it now,” He asked, a bit ticked off as he said everything he need to.

“Just tell me… what is it your after in Kumo,” she asked, as she couldn't figure out what was so important in a place like that.

Naruto sighed and said, “If it bothers you that much, I'll tell you.” He then looked in the direction where Kumogakure is as if it were right in front of him. “Within that mountain village lies a certain scroll I've desired for some time now,” he told her as she stared at him as if he were crazy.

“So, you're tell me, we're heading towards Kumo for a scroll,” she said dumfounded by the whole idea.

“It's not just any scroll I'm after,” Naruto replied with a dark chuckle, making Konan wary of him. “The scroll I'm after has information to the location to the lost dragon summons.”

With that said, Naruto started walking away, leaving Konan behind to ponder n what he said were true. If so, then how will he find that said scroll in a village that size, it would be like a finding needle in a haystack.

“And how will you find it, Kumo is one of the largest hidden villages there is. Do you have any other leads then what village it's in, it'd be nearly impossible to find just one scroll by blindly jumping in and searching for it,” Konan voiced her opinion, like her opinion matter to Naruto, but it did get him to stop in his walk causing her to stop as well.

“What do you take me for, an idiot,” Naruto angrily shot back. “Of course I know who possess it,” He told her then added, “Only a fool would do what you considered.”

“Then who has this so-called scroll,” Konan replied trying to get as much information as she could since she thought the dragon summons were just a myth.

“I see what you're trying to do,” Naruto said getting her to gulp. “But telling you now wouldn't change a thing, since you'll eventually find out for yourself,” he told her as he looked her in the eyes. “The ones who possess the scroll I desire are the Nii clan.”

“The Nii clan,” Konan repeated, knowing exactly what happen to that said clan. “But, they were all wiped out during the third shinobi war. It would be pointless to try and find it now,” Konan exclaimed, seeing no point in searching for something a dead clan has or had. “Besides, we have or-”

“I told you; I don't follow anybody's orders,” Naruto shouted cutting her off. “I may be given orders, but it doesn't mean I'll fallow them,” he told her. “And if you would've done your homework, you would know there was a sole survivor of that clan, which so happens to be the jinjuriki of the Nibi.” He informed her then added, “It'd be like killing two birds with one stone, now are there any other question you'd like to ask?” He asked her but before she could open her mouth he cut her off, “None, good, then let's be on our way.”

With that said both Naruto and Konan both continued their way towards Kumo, however, what Konan didn't know, was that Naruto had a few things he had planned. That would not only stir things up in Kumo, but would also ruin Pain's ultimate goal.
