...yeah, I just read the end (seemingly at least) of the sasuke/itachi fight.

I was not impressed...

Itachi raised his hand to try and strengthen Susano'o, when--

Something him him in the back of the next and he fell over.

At the same time, and explosion happened behind Sasuke and he also fell over, with a nicely-sized boulder pinning him to the ground.

"YOU!" Sasuke screeched. "Aren't you supposed to be dead?"

A purple-nailed foot in a blue ninja shoe and a green-nailed foot in wooden Japanese clogs stepped on his stomache.

"Apparently not..." Sasuke moaned.

Deidara smirked, pushing his long blonde hair back from his face. "That's what you get for insulting my art... un."

The owner of the clogs nodded in agreement. "Your obsession with killing family is extremely disappointing. Are you the same person who protected your friend back in Wave Country...?"

"You too?" Sasuke coughed, starting to feel the effects of being crushed by a rock about size of Chouji at MacDonalds, "I thought Kakashi killed you!"

Haku smirked, raising his clogg-ed foot once more to render Sasuke uncouncious.

He and Deidara walked off to meet Kimimaro and Tayuya at the local Baskin Robbins.

When Itachi woke up, his neck was sore and full of needles, and Sasuke was knocked out and with his eyes wide open. In his hand was a slip of paper that said, in curly handwriting, Things are not as they seem.

When Sasuke woke up, he was blind.

Teehee. Because you know that Haku and Deidara (particularly Haku) are just too cool to be killed off my sharingan losers like Kakashi and Sasuke, whether or not Zabuza or dieing for their art is included in the thought process.

Oh yeah, and the worker at the Baskin Robbins was Nii Yugito, if you remember her. Just FYI. and after that, they went to the Arby's where Kakuzu is manager. (akatsuki at arby's! look up on deviantart. and look up me too. I'm 'shashuko' there.)
