Chapter 3
          Out of all the situations Kisame had managed to get himself into over the years, this was definitely one of the more interesting ones. There he was, standing under a tree on the border of Iwagakure, pondering how he should go about finding this Kisho person that Pein wanted to recruit, when suddenly a kunoichi dropped out of the tree, practically on top of him. If she hadn't had such a shocked look on her face, he would have thought she had done it on purpose. How she didn't lose a leg when she stood on Samehada was beyond him.
          After he warned her not to move, he had Samehada quickly drain her chakra, in case she got the idea in her head to attack him. But instead, she had passed out. He caught her before she hit the ground, but she managed to slice open her ankle on the way down. He sat her down against the tree, and stood, ready for another attack. When nothing happened, he stood there frowning. Was this it? Was she really out here alone? Feeling slightly disappointed, he thrust Samehada into the ground and knelt to inspect the unconscious girl.
          Two things about this girl caught his interest right away. First, the forehead protector around her neck indicated that she was from the village of Konoha. Since Itachi had a mission in Konoha, she might have valuable information that could help him. Second, when she had looked at him, he noticed that her eyes were pale lavender with no visible pupils. He figured it was probably due to a bloodline limit. If it was a decent one, Pein might be interested in keeping her around. Either way, until he had found a way to deal with her, Iwa would have to wait.
          Kisame looked at her ankle to see how badly she was cut. The wound was bleeding profusely, a small rivulet of blood soaking into her sandal and dripping over to fall on the ground. He stared at it, fascinated. The smell quickly went to his head, making him feel hazy. He clenched his fist, waiting for the bloodlust to rise. Instead of wanting to kill her, a sharp possessiveness rose. Coupled with a faint need to protect was the hint of desire. This new set of feelings confused Kisame. How odd. Even when other women were wounded before him, this had never happened before. What made this girl any different?
          Pushing his emotions aside, he quickly bandaged her ankle so she wouldn't leave a trail of blood for others to follow. He then tossed her over his shoulder, and took off for his camp in one of the nearby caves. The last thing he needed right now was to be caught unaware by a patrol with his senses a wreck. Then there would be a bloody mess and Iwa would be on high alert, looking for the perpetrator. When they reached the interior of his temporary camp, he took off his cloak and laid her on it. He then grabbed her pack and sat against the far wall, Samehada resting beside him.
          Inside her pack he found the usual assortment of ninja gear, a couple changes of clothes, a survival pack, and a few odds and ends he assumed were mementos. Finally he found a clue as to why she was here. In a zipped pocket in the bottom of the bag was a scroll. He pulled it out and started reading. How ironic. They were both here after the same ninja. That certainly put a new twist on things. He heard the girl start to stir and quickly stuffed everything back inside and set the pack beside him.
          He watched her as she slowly brought her hand up to her face. She was a petite thing, and curvier than most kunoichi he had encountered. She looked well built, but it was difficult to tell what was under the lavender jacket she was wearing. Her face was soft and round, very innocent looking while she was asleep. Her long bluish black hair was splayed around her face in a wild pattern. Then her large lavender eyes opened and she was looking at him.
          It took Hinata a moment to realize what had happened and where she was. She noted that she felt weak, as if her chakra was extremely low. And she was in a place that was dark and smelled of earth. A cave? And there was a man in front of her. When it hit her that she was alone with a notorious member of the Akatsuki, she sat up with a squeak and blushed furiously. She quickly scooted back against the wall and sat there, trying to control the trembling that had decided to take over her body.
          "It's about time you woke up. I thought you were going to sleep all day." Kisame said with a grin.
          Hinata didn't know what to say. This was an S-class criminal and an enemy of Konoha. But he hadn't hurt her or left her to be found by the Stone ninja. She felt the cold breeze of the cave tickle her toes and she looked down. Her ankle was bandaged. When did that happen? She didn't remember hurting it. Did he bandage it for her? And she was sitting on his cloak. He must have laid her on it when he brought her here. Now he was trying to start a conversation and she simply didn't know what to say to him. She looked at him and asked the first thing that came to her confused mind.
          "W-why didn't you k-kill me?"
          "Would you like me to, little kunoichi?" Kisame teased as he grasped the hilt of Samehada.
          "N-no" she started softly, "B-but we are enemies. W-why did you s-spare me?"
          "It seems I might have a use for you. That is, if you cooperate. What's your name anyway?" Kisame asked.
          "H-hyuuga H-hinata." she stammered out.
          "Well Hinata, do you know who I am?"
          Hinata quickly thought about what she knew of the Akatsuki and its members. The one she was most familiar with was of course, Uchiha Itachi. He had a partner that he came to Konoha with a couple of years ago. The description of the man was similar to the one sitting across from her. What was his name again. That's right. Kisame. Hoshigaki Kisame.
          "Y-you’re Hoshigaki K-kisame, right?" she said.
          "That's right. At least some people from Konoha have brains." Kisame said. It still aggravated him that the Idiot Beast of Konoha hadn't had a clue when they fought a few years back. It wasn't like the world was full of giant sword wielding shark ninjas. "And what's a little leaf nin like you doing so far away from home? Where's the rest of your team?"
          "I c-can't tell you t-that. I'm s-sorry." Hinata said. She didn't want to make him mad, but she'd be in big trouble if anyone found out she'd given information to a wanted criminal.
          Kisame patted her pack that was still lying beside him. "It's ok, I already know why you're here. Which is a problem we need to talk about. I can't let you finish your mission."
          'The scroll! He must have gone through my bags while I was out. Tsunade's going to kill me when I get back to Konoha.' Hinata glanced at Kisame and Samehada. '….If I get back.' The possibility that he might just kill her now that he knew her mission made Hinata panic. She might not be able to get her pack back, but if she ran for it now, maybe she'd make it safely away with her life. Then maybe she could get Kisho to Konoha without the scroll. The only hard part would be convincing him to go with her.
          Gathering as much courage as she could, Hinata made a mad dash for the cave entrance. Kisame tried to grab her, but she dodged him and kept running. She was nearly out of the cave when she heard a whoosh over her head and suddenly Kisame's great sword plunged into the ground directly in front of her, blocking her path. Samehada's blades wiggled menacing, as if trying to reach her and the little chakra she had regained.
          Before she made it around this new obstacle, she was grabbed from behind and hauled backward. Arms like bands of steel were wrapped around her torso. She started to struggle, but when she felt Kisame's breath near her ear, she froze.
          "Relax little hummingbird," he whispered, "I won't hurt you unless you make me." Hinata felt like she was caught in the jaws of a monstrous predator, and any wrong move on her part would end it all. Willing her body to go limp, she waited silently for Kisame to let her go. But even though he loosened his grip some, he seemed content to hold on to her. A little too long to be proper.
          He was no fool. Kisame knew that Hinata was still terrified of him. Her body was still, but he knew that as soon as he released her, she would bolt again. So he held her loosely caged in his arms. But he was becoming increasingly distracted. It was her scent that did it. Fear mixed with the smell of woman and forest. When he felt desire start to take hold of him again, he let her go and stepped back. He would never make her fear him about that. After all, there was only so much of him that was animal.
          Finally released, Hinata stood there blushing. She had never been held by a man in that manner before. As a member of the Hyuuga family and its current heiress, she was schooled heavily on public appearance and her interactions with the opposite sex. And they watched her closely whenever she was in the village. So her experience was limited to Kiba's arm (who didn't give a damn what her family thought) slung casually across her shoulders and quick hugs from Naruto and the rest of her friends. But this was entirely different. This embrace felt strong and demanding, but there was very little friendly about it.
          She turned to face Kisame again, but couldn't find anything to say. A heavy silence fell in the cave. Kisame seemed uncomfortable, as if the whole situation bothered him. Finally, the moment was broken by the loud growling of Hinata's stomach. Kisame looked at her and laughed.
          "Hungry?"
          "A-a little." Actually she was ravenous. She realized that she hadn't had anything to eat since breakfast the previous morning. Before she went to the river...
          'Oh Shit!' Hinata's eyes widened as she came to the only logical conclusion about who massacred the ninja she had found. Her fear fully returned, but she remained where she stood. There was no way she was going anywhere now. If she provoked him, she might share the fate of the slain ninja.
          Trying to remain calm, Hinata walked over to where his cloak lay on the ground and picked it up. She handed it to him, and he returned her pack to her. Sitting down against the wall opposite Kisame, Hinata dug through her pack until she found her food supplies. She looked longingly at her instant noodles, but didn't even bother to ask about a fire. If they were still anywhere near Iwagakure, then it was out of the question. So she made do with another rice ball and a few leftover berries.
          Kisame could tell that Hinata was still nervous. He began to wonder how she ever became a ninja, if she was this flighty every day. Or maybe it was just him. His appearance alone made even some seasoned ninjas cower in fear. Looking for some way to normalize the situation, Kisame searched his own supplies until he came up with his own dinner.
          "Anyway," Kisame said between bites "Like I was saying earlier. You can relax Hinata. I'm not going to kill you." So much for normal. "But I have to complete my mission here, and I can't risk you interfering. I don't need to tell you how dangerous for me that would be. So you have to stay with me until I complete my mission and we are safely on our way back. After that, Pein will decide what to do with you. But if you don't cooperate, I'll be forced to contain you until my work here is done, and after that? Well, I guess it depends on how much you fight me." Kisame finished with a less than comforting grin.
          "O-ok, I won't interfere." Hinata said. She figured that this was a better deal than what she would normally get with any of the other Akatsuki. After she finished eating, she sat staring at the ground. Now she had quite a bit of time on her hands. She looked out of the cave entrance and saw that the sun was setting. Kisame's eyes followed her gaze.
          "You might as well try to sleep. I'll be up anyway and there's nothing much else to do." Kisame said.
          "H-hai." Hinata replied. She pulled her pack beside of her. Adjusting her jacket and pulling the hood up, she sat in silence. There was no way she was going to be able to sleep tonight. The very situation she was in called for her to be alert for an attack at all times. So she sat and tried to keep her mind occupied by thinking of her teammates and Naruto. How long would it be before they would realize her mission went badly and they came to her rescue? She had a sinking feeling that her fate would be decided long before they were even aware there was a problem.
          She didn't think she was sleepy, but as she sat there, the tension slowly ebbed from her body and she felt her eyes droop. A hazy thought entered her mind. What if he tried to do something to her in the middle of the night, and he was just saying she was safe to deceive her? But the thought was soon carried from her as sleep overtook her.
          Kisame gazed at Hinata as she slept with a frown on her face. But soon the frown faded and the innocent expression he saw before returned. He watched as her chest rose and fell in a steady rhythm. He shifted some to get more comfortable. Her eyes fluttered slightly as her sleep was on the verge of being interrupted. Slowly Kisame wrapped his cloak around himself and stilled. It was going to be a long night indeed. As Hinata slumbered, Kisame started performing the hand seals for the Akatsuki communication jutsu.
