The plan looks something like this: Step 1: Kill Hanzō. Step 2: Glare at Nagato until he gives up his plans for world domination (Ame's neighbours used her as a warground, whether or not they ever attain peace is none of Konan's business). Step 3: Profit.

It all started when she tried to threaten Konoha's three strongest. Yahiko doesn't know how to disagree with his boyfriend, so it's two on one, but she holds that her vote counts for three, because apparently she's Ame's master now.) ♛ Non-linear shorts centred around Konan and the original Akatsuki.

"He chose your fate. You have to take over his job. His village. His place in the world. This is the life you have to live. So, what do you say? Do you accept the position as Orochimaru's successor?"

The Third Hokage was dead. It wasn't enough. Team Eight knew loss like the seals on the backs of their tongues. They'd been silenced, branded, abandoned, ambushed, left on the enemy's doorstep like a gift--unlucky was their nickname, but they would make it their trade. The Third Hokage was dead.
