[Sasuke's P.O.V]

"Are you fucking kidding me? No way!" Itachi sighs and covers his eyes with one hand, shaking his head.

"Sasuke, please. I need your help in this. You're the only one who can get into the building, and I need you to get Deidara in." I sneer at him and turn back to the TV.

"And why the fuck would I want to do that?" I scowl, crossing my arms. Itachi sighs again, and I add, "I don't want anything to do with your stupid Akatsuki shit."

"True, this is for the Akatsuki, but it's also because we have to protect... a certain someone." I laugh out loud, looking over at my brother.

"And what makes you think I give a shit about that person?" I poke, raising an eyebrow. "Huh?"

He smiles at me.

"We're going to look out for [Name]." My brow creases in confusion at the mention of her name; what was going on?

"And why on earth would you need to look out for her...?" I say in a long, drawn out drawl, trying to put all the pieces together. Okay, a tipsy [Name] with a suspicious looking briefcase. That girl's voice I heard over the phone when Itachi's friends called. [Name] dressing like a prostitute. Her connections with Hidan and Deidara.

Well, fuck.

"I don't know if you've been living under a rock or something, Sasuke, but your ex-girlfriend is a member of the Akatsuki," grins Itachi. My jaw drops at the confirmation of my fears; [Name] was in the Akatsuki? Out of all the people- [Name]?! The sweet, law-abiding [Name] who refused to even let me see her boobs, was dressing like a hooker and distributing drugs? And- oh god, who knows what else she's done? What's going on?!

"Wha- but- how- why???" I splutter, unable to think of anything else. Itachi smirks, and pats me on the shoulder.

"I don't know, but your [Name] is a total badass. Now, are you going to help me or not?" I bite my lip, both anxious and curious. I hadn't been planning on going at all, seeing as my original thought was to ask [Name] to go with me, but since she's going with that Suna brat, I literally could not be bothered chasing after her. I still have the tickets, though.

"What do I have to do?"

A cruel, evil grin finds its way onto Itachi's face, and I narrow my eyes at him.

"Why, all you have to do is get Deidara in."

"How, though?"
