Strings Of Destiny

Introduction

Next to him was a weird plant shape creature he had never seen before his head had a Venus fly-trap covering his it, also the strangest part of him was that half of his body was white while the other half was black.

Then there was someone Naruto recognized immediately Kisame Hoshigaki he was a missing-nin from Kirigakure No Sato his name and picture were always threw around when he was in the rebel army he was known to be a big supporter of the Yondaime Mizukage when the bloodline discrimination first kicked off and he was also known as the strongest of the seven swordsmen with his blade Samehada.

Kisame was the tallest of the Akatsuki with blue moussed up hair, he had a distinctive shark like appearance complete with pale blue skin, small round white eyes with gill markings underneath and like the rest of the seven swordsmen he had razor sharp teeth.

His giant blade Samehada was wrapped up in bandages and from what Naruto could see it held the resemblance of a mace in its shape.

As Naruto's eyes reached the last and most quiet member his eyes widened slightly at person, she had a Konoha forehead protector that was scratched out.

She had pale white skin and black hair that reached past her shoulders that where tied into a ponytail but there was two pieces tucked out to the front of her neck, her ear's where pierced and had two circular earrings, her cold black eyes almost made Naruto shiver as she stared at him, she had two small defined lines under her eyes. On her neck there was a small necklace and like the rest of the Akatsuki she wore the trademark cloak and nail polish on her fingers and toes.

Naruto knew immediately this was Izumi Uchiha A master of the Sharingan and infamous all around the world for her brutal massacre of her own clan leaving only her little brother alive and the scariest part about it all was she was only a few months older than him.

Another thing Naruto noticed that on their fingers was a single ring.

"Konan, hand him the San(Three) ring" Naruto heard Pain say and like he said the blue haired woman from before walked up to Naruto and held out a ring in the palm of her hand, the ring was orange in colour.

"Remember this ring is extremely important and irreplaceable so don't lose it" Konan said in her usual emotionless voice, Naruto nodded as he took the ring out of her hand and placed it on his left index finger.

"Now we've got that out of the way we still need to find another member to join us seeing as Kakuzu has yet again killed his partner thankfully though he did retrieve the ring" Pain said his eyes burning into Kakuzu.

"Ha, what happened this time did he walk funny or something" Kisame said while laughing, Deidara also laughed at Kakuzu, who in turn snorted and looked away.

"That being said Kisame you will now partner up with Kakuzu until we find a suitable partner for him while Izumi and Naruto will be partnered together" Pain said causing Kisame to moan in annoyance while Izumi looked on like she didn't care.

"As we are still not ready to hunt the Jinchuriki's yet we will spend our time gathering funds and improving our strength so no one can oppose us so until then train yourself do whatever you need to do because when the time comes we'll be fighting a battle like no one has ever before" Pain finished his eyes glowing slightly before he began to walk away with Konan following him.

"Namikaze Naruto" Naruto turned his head towards the sound of Kisame and he was met with a giant grin.

"So the rumors are true you were able to go up against a Bijuu and win and it seems Mei was finally able to achieve her dream however I do wonder if the rumors of you and Mei are true" Kisame said with a knowing grin while Naruto narrowed his eyes.

"How do you know all this?" Naruto asked not liking that Kisame knew so much about his time in Kirigakure already not to mention his relationship with Mei.

"Don't be so surprised the whole world will probably know by now of what you did in Kirigakure it's the reason you've been marked with such a high bounty on your head to be honest if you weren't in the Akatsuki I'd of hunted you down for your reward" Kakuzu perked in while Naruto sighed at the knowledge of the world knowing of his abilities and status.

"How did they find out?" Naruto asked in confusion as he wondered the implications.

"Mei...she sent word to every village of your abilities, heritage and even your relationship with her, your quite the wanted man just like the rest of us I bet Konoha is in shock that the son of its hero is such a villain" Kisame laughed before walking out of the room with Kakuzu in tow closely followed by Sasori and Deidara while Zetsu vanished into the ground.

Naruto stared at the door they left from for a few moments before sighing and turning towards the only person still in the room however as he turned around he met blazing red eyes of Izumi Uchiha and before he knew it everything around him went black.
