Hello! Welcome to this month's Undiscovered Gems article done by yours truly, Purpledinosaur13. This month I have another three gems for you guys to check out. To make things more interesting, I'm going to start having my article themed as to keep me more focused and organized when hunting for these precious beauties.
This month's theme is: Akatsuki! Yes, you heard right. I have three Akatsuki themed stories for y'all to check out. Let's hop to it, shall we?
Title: That Night at The Bar by IrishSeptember
Summary: She was conflicted with feelings. Sitting alone a bar... Until she decided she needed to know something.
To start this one off, all I have to say is that it's a oneshot about Sasori! Not many people take the time to write about the puppet master of the Akatsuki. It's also a romance, which some people might find odd since he only really expresses true emotion towards his art. However, the author also plays on his lack of patience in order to make everything work out. I really enjoyed how the author also played the other members of the Akatsuki's personalities extremely loud. Who doesn't love a vulgar Hidan?!

Next is another oneshot.
Title: Still Here by KiwiLikeTheFruit
Summary: Make me a promise that time won't erase us, that we were not lost from the start; I dream you're still here...
~My Oneshot and contest entry for the Naruto Wattys 2015.
I, personally, am a huge Itachi fangirl (no judging). I go into stories that are centered on the elder Uchiha as a love interest ready to critique the crap out of it. However, this oneshot was simply amazing. It was all about getting over Itachi's death, with the help of the younger, more annoying Uchiha. Sasuke lovers can kill me if they want. I thought that Sasuke was a little too OOCed in this in one part, but other than that, his uncaring nature was perfect. I recommend this oneshot to all the Itachi lovers out there!

Last but not least, the story preview.
Title: Kidnapping by ChibiNinja45
Summary: Naruto's childhood friend, Natarii, is a normal high school student with a normal high school life. That all changes when she has a mysterious encounter with the Akatsuki. Through this horrific experience, Natarii discovers she's their next target because of some mysterious, unknown power she never knew about. After nearly meeting her death, Natarii finds herself mentally scarred and confused. She seeks out training in Konoha in the situation that Naruto isn't able to save her again. When Naruto and Rock Lee are assigned to help her with her training, Natarii discovers she can't use ninjutsu! But why? Her chakra networks are perfectly stable. There are many mysteries that have yet to be unraveled, and many surprises that have yet to come. Rated PG-13 for epic violence, humor, and mild language. DISCLAIMER: I do not own Naruto. All content that relates to Naruto belongs to Masashi Kishimoto and Shounen Jump. I only own my OC's and story line. I have posted the first chapter on this website for promotional purposes. The full story is posted on a separate website because I am having issues keeping up with posting the same story on two websites. I have attached the link to the other website if you would like to continue reading.
The single chapter that was posted onto Wattpad is so enthralling and interesting that it actually makes you want to go check out more at the other website that this author speaks of. I haven't looked at any more than what was on here because I believe that since only the first chapter is here on Wattpad, only the first chapter will be praised.
I actually thought that they made Tobi in this a little too harsh because he doesn't really show his true colors until after Pein is defeated. However, my job isn't to review. It is to praise the Undiscovered Gem that I have found. I really enjoyed how modern this is and how realistic it actually was. I felt that I was in the background, actually watching all that was happening. It caught my attention, which is something that rarely happens when I read fanfiction. That is my praise. If you want to go check it out, be my guest.
Well, that's all for this week my fellow Naruto fans! Tune in next month to get even more Undiscovered Gems. Until then, Dino is out! Bye-bye!
