Konoha Gates

"I'll help you Akatsuki out." Naruto said sternly, keeping his gaze fixed on the two.

Neither Konan nor Itachi seemed surprised by his reply. "Is that is your answer? So you wish to join the Akatsuki." Konan smiled slightly. "You've made a wise choice, Naruto."

"Okay then, Naruto, come with us to the Akatsuki base. Follow me. " Konan continued.

Just as Konan and Itachi was about to leave, Naruto yelled "wait!"

Both the Akatsuki stopped, and looked back at Naruto's direction.

"What is it, Naruto?" Itachi asked.

Naruto looked at his feet, hesitating to say anything. He then managed to say, "I don't exactly want to come along with you right now. I don't think I should. "

Itachi's expression hardened a bit. "And what do you mean by that?"

Naruto looked at Itachi's eyes with determination and doubt. "I want to stay here as a spy instead. I don't have to leave the leaf village and I'll still be helping you."

"You want to become a spy?" Itachi asked, surprised. "Why is that?"

Naruto quickly lowered his gaze. "Um... Uh.... I-its.." he clutched his chest, grabbing his shirt. "It's because I don't completely hate the Leaf or love it. I-......I don't think I am ready to leave just yet." He said softly.

Konan was especially surprised.

I see, so that's how it is. She sighed. This was what we originally planned anyways.

"I see that this is what you desire." Konan said. "I'm fine with that, but pulling this off requires more time and strategizing. We don't exactly have that kind of time at the moment. We'll take you to the Akatsuki hideout for a few days. Then you can return as a spy."

Naruto stared. He put his hand on his hips and leaned a little bit forward, annoyed. "And how is that different from me just ditching the Village?"

Konan shifted her weight onto her left leg. "We should plan a 'kidnapping' as a ruse to clear away suspicion of your betrayal. We need the time to explain everything."

Naruto frowned. He let out a huff and said "I guess so. How do you plan on doing that?"

"You'll see in the morning."

Hokage's Office

There were multiple an explosions that suddenly went off in the middle of the village that let out a lot of smoke. Lord Third noticed the smoke rising from the village right away. He paced around his office frantically, waiting for news.
