Omg. Chapter 30?! I feel old. I really need to speed the process up a little, hey... 

Sorry for skipping a week. I figured we all needed a break after that exclusives section, yes? 

Anyways, enjoy!!! 

************** 

From last time: 

In front of them, suspended in a machine, was the skinniest man they had ever seen. 

"Whoa," Hidan said. "Whoa." 

~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

"This is... Uzumaki Nagato," Konan said, gesturing to the pale teen. Pein stood next to her, arms crossed. 

"Hello!" Kisame waved at the skinny redhead. 

To the people watching Nagato, they saw him smirk. To the people watching Pein, they saw him smirk, mirroring Nagato's expression exactly. 

"You're hopeless, Kisame," the two said simultaneously. 

The members looked between the two, eyes wide in wonder. 

"Someone explain," Kakuzu demanded. 

Pein raised a hand in volunteer. 

"Basically, this is the body of Yahiko. I am Nagato. Because of the Rinnegan, I can use his body to move. As you can see, my real body is nowhere near useful, so I took on a different body." 

The Akatsuki gaped. 

Konan sighed. 

"Come on, you people. You've encountered this stuff before. It's not that surprising, right?" 

"I mean, Hidan's almost invincible, but this is totally out of our league. Edo Tensei?" Kisame asked. 

"No. Six Paths Technique." 

"I... I see." 

Rin made her way to the man. 

"I'm going to do a body check on you, Nagato-san." 

"N-No, don't do that- Oh, come on." Despite his bloodless appearance, a blush crawled up to his cheeks as the medic began to pat him all around. 

"Come to think about it, what do we call you now, un?" Deidara asked. 

"You decide," Pein told them. "And, Rin, will you stop? That body isn't going to go anywhere or do anything." 

Frowning, Rin activated her Kekkei Genkai. Turning away from the others as much as she could so they would not see the subtle change in her eyes, she looked him over. 

Metal was flowing through his chakra. In fact, his chakra was almost all metal. 

"Hey, this... I can fix this!" 

Once again, the members fell into shocked silence. 

"Miracle healer, that one," Zetsu said, shrugging hopelessly. 

Pein gazed at her, his expression a little shameful. 

"You can't. The metal is... not removable." 

"Chakra donations again, guys! Oh! I forgot to thank you for that when you did it for me so long ago! Thanks, guys!" Rin grinned at them. 

"Chakra donations?" Itachi asked. 

"Yup! I can fix this! You heard it, right, 'Tachi-nii? It's metal!" 

Around her, the members voiced their confusion.
