Prologue:

The day we first met

It was cold, and depressing. Rain peacefully fell to the Earth, as it went pitter patter on tree leaves and bushes. Two small girls, cried silently for what seemed like forever to them, crying along with the sky. They were alone, with no warmth but each other. Their parents abandoned them, left for dead.

One of the girls had pink hair down to her shoulders, her bangs covering her eyes, which were big, bright, and green. She was wearing a small dark blue shirt, which was torn in several places. She was wearing yellow shorts, but was blotched with various muddy spots and was torn like her shorts, and was wearing small dark blue sandals.

The other girl had short blond hair that barely reached to her shoulders. She had cerulean like eyes. She was wearing a small and matted top, along with sporting a purple skirt, and sandals. She wasn't in the best of conditions either.

"W-Why..." the pink haired five year old stuttered, trying to wipe away her tears. "I-I-no.. why?" she asked. Ino turned her head to her best friend, sporting what seemed to be a supporting smile. "Ne.. cheer up Sakura." She said, trying to avoid Sakura's question.

She didn't know why, actually. Why their parents abandoned them far outside their village, presumably leaving them to die. She didn't want to answer Sakura's question, afraid to start crying. Someone had to be the supporting and responsible one here, since Sakura obviously wasn't the least bit right now, as she was still bawling her eyes out.

"I-In-no.." Sakura said, waking Ino up from her train of though. The blond girl smiled as she turned her eyes to her friend. "Yeah?" she said, waiting for what her pink haired friend wanted.

"Let's make.. a promise. That we'll be the best kunoichis the world has ever seen. Promise?" She said, losing her stuttering and her tears, becoming more confident. "Yeah. Promise." She said. 'At least she's more confident now, ' Ino thought, smiling.

Unaware of a pair of eyes watching them, they smiled together, and began to wipe away what was left of their tears and sadness.

"Sasori.. maybe we can teach those two or something, yeah?" the blond haired teenager said as he turned to his red-headed partner. "Deidara.. Leader might not allow it." Sasori said as he turned to face Deidara.

"But.. we could always give it a shot, they could be trained to be really good, and maybe they can be good members for Akatsuki, yeah." Deidara said, waiting for a response from his teammate and friend. Sasori just sighed and nodded, as they hopped down from where they were, and right in front of the two girls.

"Excuse us, yeah. We were overheard and was wondering something, you wanna get stronger, yeah? Then we could help you train, so you two can be stronger. What do ya say?" Deidara said to the two girls, grinning and being happy to them, hoping they'd say yes. He couldn't help but feel bad for them.. he was known for being a softie, and seeing them cry made him well up inside.

Sakura and Ino just stared at him blankly. "Umm.." Sakura started, but trailed off, looking to Ino, practically saying, 'Let's go with him, but I'm not sure..' 'Cha we should go with him, so then we can go back to the village and kick their butts for abandoning us!' Inner Sakura yelled, pumping her fists in the space of the little pink haired girl's mind.

Just then, Ino stood up, puffed her chest up to look tough, and nodded and smiled. "Yeah, we'll go with you guys, as long as your not perverts!" she said to the blond haired male, she thought. She couldn't really tell the difference.

Deidara just smiled, and held his hand out to the blond girl. "Don't worry, we're just traveling ninjas. Not perverts, yeah." He said, extending his hand to the blond girl. He masked his little mouths that we're on his hands, not wanting to scare them. "All right then, let's go, yeah." He said, turning to Sasori. "My name's Deidara, and this is Sasori. What are your names?" he asked. This time, Sakura spoke up. "My name is Sakura Haruno, and this is.." she said, trailing off, waiting for Ino to say her name.

"Ino. Ino Yamanka." The blond haired girl said. Deidara just grinned again, and flipped Ino onto his back, as if he was giving her a piggyback ride. Sasori did the same, as soon as he picked Sakura up, she squeaked, and had a light pink blush on her face.

Ino couldn't help but smile. 'Looks like Sakura has a crush.' She thought. As soon as they gave each other their names, they soon sped off, past trees and stray branches, off to Akatsuki headquarters.

As soon as they arrived at a building, they stopped by a door, and Deidara and Sasori set down the two girls, telling them to wait there, not to come in, and if they were in trouble scream.

As Deidara and Sasori stepped in, they bowed to a black silhouette of a body, as eyes pierced through the shadows.

"Sasori, Deidara. What is it?" the shadow said.

"Leader, We've found two young girls, and since looking at their chakra flow, we've found an aspiring medic, along with a good mind controller." Sasori said.

"I see.." Leader said. "Bring them in." he said, as Deidara nodded, and opened the door. "Sakura, Ino, someone would like to see you, yeah." He said in a soothing tone, not wanting to scare them. The two girls merely nodded, and walked into the dark room.

"What are your names?" the shadow asked.

"Sakura Haruno." The pink haired girl said.

"Ino Yamanaka." The blond girl said.

"I see. Sakura, Ino, I've heard from Deidara and Sasori that you wish to be stronger, correct?" Leader said.

"Hai." The girls said in unison.

"I see. Join our organization, Akatsuki, and you'll be able to become much more powerful. I ask you this, do you wish to join?" the shadow asked the two girls.

"Hai." The girls repeated.

"Good. I welcome you to Akatsuki. My name is Leader. Sasori and Deidara will get you acquainted here, and train you." Leader said.

Being polite, the girls nodded and bowed. "Arigatou, leader." They said. He simply nodded, and signaled them to leave. As soon as the four exited the room, he couldn't help but chuckle.

"So, we have two new and aspiring members.. the last member of the legendary Haruno clan, and a member of the Yamanaka clan. This might get interesting." he said.
