-Naruto's POV-

"Naruto." I hear daddy call.

I spin around with a questioning look.

"Everyone's gathering at the training ground again." He says.

"I'm coming!!" I grin.

"I know." He chuckles.

We walk towards the training grounds and I grin as I run towards the rest of the Akatsuki.

"Sori! Hii! Deidei! Kuzu!" I wave.

"Finally. We need to decide how to find the rest of the Akatsuki." Kuzu says.

My grin falters and I run slightly slower. Stopping completely just in front of them.

"Oh. Okay. Who are we looking for?" I ask.

"Well actually, we thought it would be a good idea for you to burst your chakra out and send a distress signal." Sori says.

I blink and point at myself with a questioning look.

They all roll there eyes.

"It has to be you. They won't come unless it's you." Deidei explains.

"Why?" I ask.

They all sigh.

"Itachi... You tell him. He'll listen to you." Deidei says.

I raise an eyebrow.

"Naruto... We all care for you and so we want to protect you. That means if the other Akatsuki think that you're in a life threatening situation, they'll come running." Daddy says.

"Ohh, Ok!" I grin.

"Well, we kind of have to warn the village first or else they'll think that your actually dying." Kuzu says.

I tense at that.

What will they think?

They don't know that the Akatsuki are my family now.

Will they hate me again?

I felt myself pale.

I feel Daddy place a reassuring hand on my shoulder.

I nod in thanks.

They walk with me to the Hokage's office and I wince at every pair of eyes that landed on me and the group.

Daddy knocks on the door and I hear a faint 'Come in!'.

We walk inside and I run up the wall and sit on the ceiling, trying to avoid Baa-chan.

"Naruto. Down now." Baa-chan says.

I pout and drop down.

"Now. Deidara sent me a clay bird and told me about your plans and I think it would be for the best if that happens." Baa-chan nods.

I go pale.

"I'll get everyone together at the center of the village to explain." Baa-chan says.

"We understand.... Naruto?" Daddy turns to me.

I tense and I think he notices because he sighs and places a hand on my head.

"I'm sorry that we're making this difficult for you. I know we're taking a huge risk here but if the village ends up hating you again, the Akatsuki will take care of you." He says as his eyes soften.

I give him a nod and a small pained smile which he returns.

"But should we really just drop a bomb on them so quickly?" Kuzu asks.

"I personally think it'll be funny." Baa-chan grins.

We all sweatdrop at her.

"What? Being Hokage isn't fun. I need some sort of entertainment once in a while." She shrugs.

I ignore that statement and focus on my adopted, S-class filled, potentially dangerous- Scratch that, ahem, very dangerous, family.

They all seem tense and nervous about this.

Deidei and Hii were showing there nervousness openly while Kuzu's eyes were slightly more narrowed. Sori was tapping his finger slowly and daddy was a bit more on guard.

Baa-chan stood on top of the Hokage tower and looked out at the village.

"CITIZENS OF KONOHA!! I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE ALL ATTENTION!" She yells.

"Well that's one way to tell the village..." Deidei whispers to Hii.

"I know right? I thought she was going to like... Put it on the newspaper or something." Hii whispers back.

"I thought she was going to tell a few important people and let them tell everyone else." Sori says.

"Wasn't she going to get a Yamanaka to link all the minds mentally and tell them like that?" Kuzu asks.

I roll my eyes at them.

Sometimes the Akatsuki can be like gossiping school girls.

Nonetheless, the whole village had gathered at the bottom of the Hokage tower.

The village sounds like a beehive with all the whispering and murmering.

"SILENCE!" Baa-chan yells.

Everyone shuts up immediately.

"WHAT I AM ABOUT TO TELL YOU NOW IS INFORMATION THAT I UNDERSTAND MOST OF YOU WILL NOT LIKE OR HAVE GROWIMG DOUBTS. BUT! I TRUST UZUMAKI NARUTO AND WHOEVER HE TRUSTS, I DO AS WELL!" Baa-chan yells to the crowd.

Everyone held there breaths, waiting for the big secret to be revealed.

Everyone knows that if everyone in the village had been gathered like this, it means it must be pretty crucial and most importantly, trustable.

"UZUMAKI NARUTO, AS EVERYONE KNOWS, HAD BEEN MISSING A COUPLE WEEKS AGO."

Everyone nods.

"IN FACT. HE HAD BEEN TURNED INTO A CHILD AND WAS TAKEN TO THE AKATSUKI'S HIDEOUT!"

The murmurs started again.

Figures. Most the village don't know what the Akatsuki are yet.

"THE AKATSUKI ARE A GROUP OF S-CLASS MISSING NIN!" Baa-chan says, dropping the bomb.

Startled cries were heard from people down below.

"BUT!!! NARUTO HAD SOMEHOW MELTED THE AKATSUKI'S HEARTS AND HAVE EVEN CONSIDERED THEM FAMILY."

Many people chuckled at this, knowing that it was a thing that I would do even accidently.

"I WILL INFORM EVERYONE WHO ARE IN THIS ORGANIZATION LATER. NOW I WOULD LIKE TO WARN EVERYONE THAT NARUTO INTENDS TO BRING THE REST OF HIS FAMILY INTO KONOHA. AND YES, FOR THOSE WHO PICKED IT UP WHEN I SAID 'REST OF THEM', IT DOES MEAN THAT A FEW OF THEM ARE NOW HERE!"

"Is that our cue?" Deidei asks.

"No shit!" Hii scoffs.

Every Akatsuki member present stepped up and showed themselves in front of Konoha.

I gapped.

No one said they were gonna reveal themselves so soon!

I hear the crowd gasp at the sight of the recognisable figures.

"NARUTO IS NOW GOING TO SEND A CHAKRA FLARE THAT WOULD CALL IN THE REST OF THEM. BRACE YOURSELVES!!" Baa-chan yells and steps down.

She turns around and grips my shoulder.

"Do it." She says.

"Now?! I thought we were only going to inform them?!" I exclaim.

"No. Now. Do it." She says and pushes me forward into the vision of the whole of Konoha.

I gulp and sucked in a breath.

I notice Deidei, Hii, Sori, Kuzu and Daddy give me warm encouraging smiles.

I raised my chakra levels and made it pour out of the village heavily.

I felt a few familiar startled chakra spikes within the chakra that I had unleashed.

The chakra signals started heading towards me at a fast pace.

"They'll be here in about 2-3 hours, give or take. But Tobi will be here now." I say.

"Noted." Daddy says.

"EVERYONE IS TO BE BACK HERE IN 2-3 HOURS! WHEN I DISMISS YOU IN 10 MINUTES!"

There was a round of 'Hai!'s before everything went silent again.

And suddenly a vortex looking thingy appeared in front of me, still in the line of vision to the whole village.

"Little fox! Are you hurt?! Did somebody hurt you?! Are you dead?!" Tobi yells out in panic and pats me up and down, making sure I wasn't injured anywhere.

"T-Tobi! I'm fine!" I yell in embarrassment.

"Oh that's good.... Then what the hell were you thinking!! What's with the chakra flare!" He yells and hits me on the head.

"Ow! Tobi~" I whine as I clutch my head.

"That's what you get for worrying me!" He says with a scoff.

All of Konoha was quiet as they didn't know how to react.

Tobi seemed to have just noticed his surroundings because he turned around and looked at the crowd.

"...yo..." He says casually to the crowd.

I couldn't help but think of Kakashi-sensei when he said that.

Everyone sweatdrops and some even fall to the ground in disbelief that this guy was a S-rank missing nin.

Some that recovered from Tobi's greeting, chuckled at his previous motherly behaviour.

"OK DISMISSED! YOU GUYS GET IT!"
