"Naruto Uzumaki of the Hidden Leaf" Konan said, as she stood there, staring at the young blond jinchuriki.

"Konan of the Akatsuki" Naruto said back, looking straight in her eyes.

"What is the meaning of you out here, knowing very well my organization is looking for you." she asked blatantly.

"I have a deal to propose for you, not the Akatsuki" Naruto answered back again, never loosing eye contact with Konan.

"A deal? Just for me? What if it wasn't me but someone else?" Konan rebuttaled.

"I little luck never hurt anybody?" He smirkingly chuckled still looking at her eyes.

"I'll hear your deal and decide if I will accept it" Konan replied, no emotion shown on her face.

"I want you to train me." He told her directly.
She was shocked by his offer but didn't show it. She was intrigued. Why her? Why someone from the Akatsuki?

"Why me, someone from the Akatsuki?" She asked, trying to see his reasons.

"To be honest, it seems nobody wants to train me" he said honestly.

"The pain of being a Jinchuriki" she said, scoffing at her inner self.

"Seems like it. I want someone that might have at least some respect towards me and knowing the Akatsuki, you are all powerful shinobis aswell" Naruto answered back.

"I'm flattered hm. Why are you so eager to train to the point of going to your enemy?"she asked again, already knowing her answer towards his deal.

"I'm done being weak. I'm done being saved and I'm done being admired for doing nothing!" He exclaimed thighten his hands at the end of his last words as they kept ringing in his head.

Konan was....well for better word surprised. He knew they were looking for him. He knew he was the prime target yet he had the guts to ask her for help. She felt pity for him and slightly smiled.

"Fine, I accept your offer but under two conditions" she finally said, shocking Naruto.

"What are they?" Said Naruto while nodding to Konan's answer.

"One, time. You come here at 10pm and leave at 3am. And two, you have to find a day partner" she told him, holding out her fingers, counting the conditions.

"Day partner?" Naruto questioned.

"It would be suspicious walking around bruised and tired wouldn't it? Find someone good but not amazing at taijutsu and ninjutsu, it should do the job. You have a whole village to choose." She answered to his question.

"Alright" he said, nodding with a slight smirk on his face.

"We start tomorrow" she says starting to float away
"Goodbye Naruto Uzumaki"

"Goodbye Konan"
