Life of the Akatsuki Twins (How I became an Akatsuki Book 2 * Naruto fanfiction)

Chapter 4 - The truth

Katsu's P. O. V.

'I wanted to tell you! I really wanted, but not like this!' Mum muttered.

'Tell us what?' I was confused. I couldn't understand anything! She didn't answered, cause she was still weeping. Takara tried to comfort her.

On the floor, there were all kinds of stuff. Another cloak, looking alike as the one on Taka, a ring with a kanji on it, a bunch of needles, kunai, different kinds of blades, a small medic kit and lots of other things, I couldn't indentify.

And there was the book too. A book with a page, which shows the crossed out picture of a mad looking alike as Takara. As I took a closer look I noticed his hands. He had palm-mouths! Can it be, that this is a photo of father?

Under the picture there were the data about him. His name was Deidara, shinobi from one of the hidden villages, Iwagukare. He left his village, joined Akatsuki and became an S-rank criminal. That was all I could understand from the data listed.

'He is our father?' I asked mum, pointing at the picture, when she calmed down.

'Yes, he was your father.' Mum nodded.

'Was? He died?'

'Yes, he detonated himself and became his art itseft.'

'How does art fits in here?'

'It's a long story.' She made a little smile. 'You know, your father lived for his art. The true art of a single moment. He tought, that art is a bang.'

'You mean an explosion? Awesome!' I interupted. Then Taka spoke up.

'Was he really a criminal?' She asked on a low tone. Mum turned pale. After a moment of dead silence, she answered.

'Don't rush to conclusions Takara! You two don't know the whole truth, only some parts, you have just found out.' She sighed. 'I guess I can't hide it from you anymore.'

She took a deep breath, then started to tell the story of their life. How did she joined the Akatsuki and met Deidara, his art, their missions together and at the end, how they became separated and how did she heared about her love's death.

'Not so soon after I left the Akatsuki, I had a feeling, that I'm pregnant. I settled down in this small village, leaving my whole past behind, only keeping that chest with my memories in it. And also the bingo book you're holding in your hands Katsu.'

'So, if you were an Akatsuki member, alongside with father, why aren't you listed too?' I asked curiously. She smirkled.

'That's because that book contains that missing-nins, criminals and Akatsuki members, who were known and needed to be exclaminated.' She took the book out from my hand, turned over to another page, then gave it back to us.

'Fujiko Nagajikan.' Takara read out loud. 'Missing-nin from Iwakagure. Medical skills and a rare kekki-genkai. Status: Dead. Circumstances of her death is unknown.' The picture on the page showed a young girl in her teens. Our eyes grew wide. Mum just nooded.

'As you can see, it was widely believed, that I was killed long before I joined the Akatsuki. That's why I'm not listed as a member of the organisation. But this is only a gossip from my birtvillage.'

Our jaws dropped. Our mum had just admitted, that she was a missing nin, alongside with our S-rank criminal father!
