Hi there ~! ^^
Welcome to my first ff. I hope the scrap I make here has some positive impact. Of course, I'm always open to criticism and suggestions for improvement, I even want that, but please don't be too harsh, because it's kind of frustrating when you don't get a single praise for your first work, even if it is so small ... So, that was now first my whining, I hope you got through it well ^^ °. OK, and so without further ado to the prologue, but I'll say it right away: It's not very funny yet, but there must always be some kind of boring introduction ^^. The next Kappis will definitely be funnier, I hope at least * meekly desu *
Have fun!

Warning:
Since I have clocked these Ff in the humor genre, the characters are all a little OoC, some more (e.g. Sasori), others maybe a little less (e.g. Hidan or Tobi). But don't worry, I won't overdo it;) (e.g. that Hidan prances across a meadow, picks flowers and sings "All my ducklings")
Oh yes, one more thing: Of course, I didn't come up with these sayings that Deidara utters myself, I'm really far too uncreative for that. Of course, I don't want to offend the original inventors of these questions in any way or steal their intellectual property, I just thought that it would add some wit to the story if I included them. So all laughter and praise go to the inventor, not to the author;)

Disclaimer:
The characters are all not mine and are the intellectual property of M. Kishimoto, the creator of Naruto. In addition, I don't earn any money with this fanfiction or have any other advantages from it.

Several other Naruto characters will appear in later chapters, but don't worry, the Akatsuki will always star.

So, is that it now? I think so, well then, have fun with the prologue! ^^

~~~~~~

Winter slowly arrived in our beloved Naruto world, as a look out of the window would reveal to every observer, because the trees had already lost almost all of their leaves, which were now on the ground and formed a colorful carpet, which was, however, replaced by a light white Layer was tarnished. A few last birds sat on the bare branches of the trees, which were going to rest. They sang and twittered and you could have got the impression that they were singing a farewell song.


If Pain had had a rock, he would have thrown it at those bastards who were bothering him from indulging in his thoughts. Our beloved Leader was sitting in his office hanging over a few documents as he pondered. He was visibly in a bad mood and the noise from outside didn't necessarily make it any better.The reason for the orange-haired man's displeasure could be summed up in one word: winter! Because in this season of the year the number of available missions decreased in a truly miraculous way, which is probably quite simply due to the restricted means of transport, too high snow and the associated poor and slow movement and the still limited fighting, bare trees and bushes that made it extremely difficult to hide and explained the bitter cold, which is why many got sick and therefore dropped out. Too few missions meant less money, and that was what Akatsuki needed for his world conquest plans. A considerable amount had accumulated over the past few years, but that was nowhere near enough.


So what should Pain do now? He couldn’t leave his members in their secret hiding place all winter long, even if the others would certainly have enjoyed a vacation. Especially since that would certainly have been extremely straining on his nerves.


He rested his head on his right hand and turned his gaze to the door. No, to endure the others every single day throughout the winter, he would not survive. It wasn't like he didn't appreciate her or be ungrateful for her help, but sometimes he'd like to harm them. Kakuzu in particular has been getting on the cake lately because he has been asking him for the last 2 weeks when a mission is due again and the money lover also accused him of not trying hard enough to get new assignments to pull ashore. Maybe he should just let Kakuzu do his job and then he would see how difficult the whole thing was.


Wait a moment! That was it! If Kakuzu has been complaining and complaining the whole time, then he should at least have a solution, or at least an idea of ​​how the problem might be solved!

Resolutely the leader got up from his desk, opened his door, went out and purposefully headed for Kakuzu's room.


~~~~~~~


Well, what did the rest of the Akatsuki do? Most of them sat in the living room and went about their business. Deidara was sitting on the couch and watching a horror movie (I have to say that it's evening), grabbing the nearby sofa cushion and now clutching it tightly, which clearly expressed his tension. Sasori had sat down next to him and was keeping him company, although he seemed rather bored with the movie. Hidan wasn't there, he still had to perform his usual evening ritual, Konan made a couple of origami birds, while Tobi watched them curiously. Itachi was just coming in from the kitchen with Kisame in tow; they had been there to do the dishes and had only just finished.Zetsu was standing in a lonely corner of the room with his back to the others and he seemed to be talking to himself.


This peaceful idyll was suddenly destroyed when suddenly the leader, accompanied by Kakuzu, entered the room and drew attention to himself with a clear throat.


“Listen everybody, there is something important we need to talk about.” Pain looked around the room and then continued: “I see Hidan is missing. Kakuzu, bring him here and if he doesn't want to, tell him that this is an explicit order. "


Kakuzu nodded once and then disappeared through the door. It took a while, but finally he went back into the room, accompanied by Hidan. He looked rather sullen and immediately vented his displeasure: "What the hell is so important that I have to interrupt my ritual ?!". Deidara also spoke up: "Exactly! The film is so exciting right now, un!" "Rather less ..." came from Sasori, who still looked just as bored as before. "Pain I'm really tired, can't that wait until tomorrow?", Konan struck him in the back. "Exactly! We just wanted to rest a little!", Itachi shouted, visibly annoyed, who was strongly supported by Kisame.


"SHUT UP, EVERYONE, EVERYONE," shouted a rather angry pain.


Nice, this silence.


"Well, let's start all over again. We have to talk now because it's very important, right?" Pain's voice had taken on a rather threatening undertone towards the end, as if he wanted to warn the others indirectly, just not him to contradict. Apparently he even had success with it, because the others nodded rather intimidated, which the leader took benevolent of note.


He continued: "Well, as you probably know from years past, our mission rate is very low in winter, so I asked Kakuzu to help me make a plan for how we might solve the problem. So are We came to the conclusion that instead of waiting for any missions we are looking for some. "He looked around briefly to make sure that everyone was still listening and then continued:" That means: We will look for jobs like us normal people do that! "he finally dropped the bomb.


Silence…


"... Wait a minute, is that supposed to mean we should go to WORK?", Hidan's indignant voice rang out. "No more fighting and killing ?!"


"That's exactly what it should mean!", Pain said, now quite annoyed. He skilfully ignored the general murmuring and groaning that went around and let Kakuzu explain further: "Listen, of course nobody would hire us if they heard the name Akatsuki, that's why we will all use different identities and of course also other clothes. ""What ?!" came the horrified scream from Itachi, who looked at Kakuzu in horror. "I don't want to part with my usual clothes! They are part of me! Something like a second skin, I've been through so much with them, they are already part of my identity!"


"Now don't exaggerate and pull yourself together a little, yes ...?", Kakuzu said, a little speechless, he hadn't expected something like that ...


But now the others began to protest: "Itachi is right! Our coats are our identification! Without him I would feel so naked!"


"Quiet! Now think about it! When the people see our black coats with the red clouds from afar, most of them flee! How are we supposed to remain anonymous?", Pain intervened again, and he sounded pretty frustrated.


Slowly the others seemed to see it and Itachi also realized that he had lost. Offended, he turned his head to the side and just said: "But I'll leave my nail polish on ..." and pouted. Pain could only shake his head in resignation.


Kakuzu cleared his throat: "Ok, to get back to the actual topic: Leader-sama and I have already booked our first job for tomorrow and we are all needed there. What it is and more detailed information we will give you tomorrow, because it is already late and I think we should all have had a good rest, so we should go to bed now. "


This also seemed to have been Pain's opinion, because he dismissed the others and left the room and went back to his private rooms. Kakuzu followed shortly after him.

There remained 8 Akatsuki members, some confused, some speechless and some angry.


"Well, that can be something ...", Sasori said, quite exhausted.


"You can say that out loud, un", Deidara now agreed.


"Can't we just put Blondie on the line?", Hidan said, grinning nastily at Deidara's robe.


"I beg your pardon?" He said indignantly and jumped up from the couch.


"Boys calm down! We'll somehow survive that.", Konan tried to cheer the others up, which she didn't really manage.


"I'm in a bad mood, I'm going to bed ..." Kisame said goodbye and pulled the still pouting Uchiha with her.


“I still have to finish my ritual, I'll see you tomorrow.” With that, Hidan was
