The afternoon sun bathes the beach in golden light, waves lapping softly. Members of Akatsuki scatter across the sand: Kisame and Zetsu talk animatedly, Pain furrows his brow watching the confusion, Konan adjusts her swimsuit in the bathhouse, Tobi runs into the water while Deidara yells from the other side, Itachi rests in a chair, Kakuzu and Hidan prepare the barbecue, and Sasori rolls his eyes. you, you sit down on the sand — and you feel a steady gaze fixed on you.
