Welcome to Akatsuki Manor!

There's Zetsu…the brand new dominant male. [Dominant Male

Konan…his loving partner [Dominant Female

Pein…a roving Akatsuki male that causes trouble [Hard-headed

Fearless Sasori [Brave

And their ever present neighbors…the Konoha group [Neighbors from hell

This is…Akatsuki Manor.

Last time on Akatsuki Manor, Itachi had been suffering from a puff adder bite. And Pein had attacked Zetsu in a feeble attempt to regain dominance.

It's been two days since Itachi had been bitten by the puff adder. Being the smallest male, it seems he's fighting a impossible battle.

Dominant male, Zetsu, has tried consoling the little meerkat, but to no avail. Never been put in this situation before, he's unsure of what to do. Kisame himself wouldn't know how to handle this. It is up to Itachi to fight this and pull through. But as Zetsu leads the group to go foraging, Itachi…doesn't follow. He's too weak to keep up. Kakuzu, in turn with staying with the pups, stays by his side.

Sasori and Hidan are standing watch as the Akatsuki forage. Pein, however, is restless. He has been watching Zetsu get cozy with Konan. Konan originally was his mate. Kisame, the former dominant male, quickly dismissed that when he took her for himself. After his death, Zetsu rose to power and became her mate.

Pein is growing to be an unstable meerkat. He wants revenge and is set on getting it. He starts to go toward the happy couple. Suddenly he launches an attack on Zetsu. The dominant male rises and attacks as well. The two slug it out. This is a fight not only for revenge and Konan's heart, but also for dominance. Pumped up with testosterone from his `quality time' with Konan, Zetsu has the upper hand. It's no real contest.

With the dust cleared, it's no surprise. Zetsu is still dominant male. For Pein, this has dire consequences. Zetsu has had enough. He attacks, war-dancing toward Pein. Pein runs for his life. The rest of the Akatsuki watch as he disappears. He is now their enemy.

As the Akatsuki come home from foraging, there is an eerie silence among them. Itachi and Kakuzu can only wonder. Zetsu has plunged the Akatsuki into a new era. Life…without Pein.

Next time on Akatsuki Manor, Itachi's wound has healed. And a new group appears at the Akatsuki.
