New story, new places and new people. Well, not really. It's still about Deidara, Sasori and the rest of Akatsuki.
Still I don't own Naruto or any of the characters. Only the plot and the OCs.
Zetsu black side talking.
Zetsu white side talking.
Thinking.
"Iwa Deidara, you better wake up before I have to come up after you. You don't want to be late for your last day, do you?" Finally the fifteen years old blonde boy started to stir. With a yawn he opened his blue orbs and sat up in his bed.
Deidara swung his legs over the edge of the bed and placed his feet at the floor that'd already been warmed by the sun.
A glance at the clock told him that he'd around twenty minutes before the bus would go. With a scowl he stood up and walked across his room.
Everywhere in the room had he placed clay sculptures. New as old and small as big. Mostly birds. He'd never let anyone beside his mother and nearest friend see his art.
"Deidara, my dear, are you coming down or what?"
"Yes mum, un. Just give me a moment."
He grabbed some black pants and a lose blue shirt before working at his hair so most of it was hidden under a cap. People would most likely think he was gay if they ever saw his hair and he wouldn't cut his hair no matter what his mother said about it.
Fifteen minutes later he stumped down the stairs with a bag over his shoulder. "I'm going, un."
"What about breakfast?"
An older blonde like Deidara in female version walked out from their little kitchen. Unlike him her hair was short, blue eyes much like his own but she was slightly higher than him. "Don't worry, un. Konan is waiting for me, un."
He left their house before his mother could say anymore. If his mother started lecturing him he would be late for school for sure.
Deidara found Konan waiting for him at their usually place. The blue haired girl had been his best and only friend since he and his mother moved to the city three years ago. Like himself this girl was different from other people. First thing she'd blue hair. Than alone was enough to make people avoid her. And the girl was so fascinated by origami that it's scary. Not that he ever would admit that.
"Morning, Dei-chan. What took you so long? I didn't think that you would make it today."
"Sorry, un. My mum started lecturing me, un."
"Oh, poor you. How is she doing by the way?"
They walked inside the bus and found an empty seat where they sat down. "Fine un. We went to the hospital yesterday and the doctor said that she would do fine as long as she doesn't overdo it."
The rest of the drive they sat in silence. Deidara watched the other high school students' step on the bus and listened to their plans for the summer vacation. Most of it was something that he could only dream about.
The bus stopped in front of the school just as a bell rung. Deidara and Konan had to run so that they wouldn't be late. The school was old and big. A grey building with five floors and lots of classrooms. They'd to be in class 517 which was at the fifth floor.
When they came inside there were no other to be seen. They started running up the stairs and through the long corridors. Konan was holding his hand so he didn't get left behind. The girl was the only one besides his mother who knew why he always was wearing gloves. Not even in gym class did he take his gloves of.
The only other who knew about his hand mouths was his father and that man had left their family shortly after he was born. They hadn't heard anything from that man after he left.
Deidara and KOan reached the classroom and took seat in the back of it just as the teacher himself arrived. A silver haired man who'd covered his left eye with bandages. No one knew why he's wearing such a thing but a lot of rumours were running around. One more unbelievable than the last one.
"Sorry class. I'd to help this old lady who's lost on the road of life. Anyway do as you want to as long as you don't disturb me. I've got to check up at some new books for next school year."
Deidara rolled his eyes. If the books Kakashi was talking about was their new school books then he's the new Santa Claus.
"Look Dei-chan." Deidara looked in the direction Konan was pointing. Only to see a well-known redhead in a black cloak with red clouds who seemed to be talking with a blonde haired girl with blue eyes and purple clothes. He knew that she's named Ino, or something like that.
From where they sat Deidara couldn't hear what the two of them were talking about but he'd a feeling about what was going on.
Suddenly the girl turned around and ran back to the school gate. It seemed like she's crying. In the school gate a pink haired girl with emerald eyes and in a red dress was waiting for the other girl. He saw her hug the other girl and smiled. It's always good to have someone to stand by the side just like he would be there for Konan and she would be there for him.
He looked back to the redhead only to find him staring straight at him. Even with the distance between them Deidara couldn't help but shiver. Never had he seen such clear, brown eyes before.
"It's the ninth in this month." Deidara looked back at Konan who was standing next to him. "What are you talking about, un?"
"Akasuna down there, member of Akatsuki, the gang which rule out school and streets. It's the ninth girl he broke up with, only in this month."
He looked outside again only to find that the boy was nowhere to be seen. "Someone should teach him a lesson, un."
"Dei-chan, you're genial."
"Huh, un?" Deidara tilted hishead to the side while he tried to figure out what she's talking about.
"It's time for Akasuna to taste some of his own medicine and we're going to be the one which do it."
"How, un?"
Konan smirked and leaned closer to him. "You know, make him interested and then give him the cold shoulder."
Finally Deidara nodded. "So, un. How are you going to do it, un?" Deidara couldn't help but shudder when Konan looked him directly in the eyes and smirked like a cat.
"Not me but you."
"No, un."
But Dei-chan, I've already Pein and we'll need my boyfriend to get the information about Akasuna. After all he's the leader of Akatsuki so he must know most about the members."
"But Konan, I'm a boy."
"I know but he swings both ways. And I've seen him stare at your ass more than ones when you walks past him."
Deidara blushed and lowered his gaze to the table in front of him. "It's stupid, un."
"Please, Dei-chan. Do it for me, your best friend, and all the other girls the bastard has hurt out there."
With a sigh he looked up and nodded. "You win, un."
"Very well, we'll meet at your place after school."
"Why, un?" Konan rolled her eyes while she petted his head. "Because we'll have to start working nw if you shall be ready for next school year."
With a groan Deidara rested his head against the school desk. Somehow he knew that he would regret agreeing with his friend.
After school.
When the bell rang for the last time that day Deidara left the school ground. The school day was finally over and he saw no reason to stay there any longer. Konan was meeting with her boyfriend at would meet him later on in his home when she had gotten the information she needed.
Deidara frowned while he walked down a street. Konan was a member of Akatsukibut still she used most of her time together with him and he'd never seen her wear the group's uniform with the black clouds at in.
Deep in thought he didn't see the person in front of him and collided with something hard. Looking up after he landed on his edge he found Orochimaru standing over him. The pale, snakelike boy with long, black hair and golden eyes was in the same year as himself but a year older than Deidara. Like everybody else in their year was.
"What do we have here? A little boy who thinks that he owns the street?" Deidara tugged his cap down and noted that there was no one else to be seen. "Not having your idiots with you today, un?"
"Shut up, freak."
"Honestly, if you can't come up with something better, un, you shouldn't open your mouth. Could you at least leave me alone, un?"
He stood up ad noticed that the other boy only was slightly higher than him. Orochimaru just smirked and stepped closer so that they were nearly touching each other. "If you let you hair grow longer you would look more like a girl, Deidara."
The blonde boy backed away until he'd his back against a wall and starred at the other boy with wide eyes. "I'm not a girl, un."
With a smirk Orochimaru walked so close that Deidara could heel him breathe on his skin. "Do you wish to prove me that you're not a girl? I could make you feel good if you would just let me do so. You would learn to love the pain."
Deidara shivered when Orochimaru ran a pale finger over his cheek. "So beautiful and innocent. I bet that you've never been with someone. I can't wait to be the one to steal your innocence."
Orochimaru moved away from him when Deidara spit him in the face. Deidara took the chance and ran Somewhere behind him he could hear the other boy call for him but it didn't seem like he's being followed.
First when he's in front of his house Deidara stopped. He leaned forwards and tried to take in as much air as his lungs would allow him to.
With shaking legs he let himself in the house. First when the door behind him was closed he allowed himself to relax.
Orochimaru was another reason why he was wearing the cap every time he went outside the house. The snake like boy was bad enough as it was now. He didn't need to give the other boy more reasons to be after him. As the leader of the school's music band Orochimaru thought that he could do as he wanted to do. Deidara wanted to prove him wrong.
"Deidara, my dear, is it you?" Deidara smiled and left his bag at the floor. "I'm home, un."
He found his mother in the kitchen washing dished. The kitchen was nearly to small to fit two people which was the main reason to why the hardly ate in there.
"Konan is coming over later, un." His mother smiled and nodded. "Good, I'll be out of the house. Don't stay up too late tonight. School may be over for now but we still have work to do."
This time it was Deidara who nodded. He knew his mother felt bad about leaving him alone. "Don't worry, mum. I'll be together with Konan. Not much can happen with her in here. Besides when I start working tomorrow you can take it easier, un."
He blushed when his mother placed a kiss at his forehead. "I know. But you should be playing around with your friends and thinking about what you want to be instead of working and worrying about bills."
Deidara hold back a groan. "We've already been talking about this before, un. It's not something you should do alone since it's both of us."
His mother smiled. "Well, I better get going the rooms won't be cleaning themselves. Say hello to Konan from me."
"Un."
When Deidara was sure that he was alone in the house he ran up the stairs and up to his own room. It wasnøt big but at least it was his own. He still remembered the last place they had lived before this. The place had been even smaller and they'd had to share it with another family. It was not something he liked to remember.
Finding some clay he sat down cross-legged and started moulding the clay in his hands. Soon he's so concentrated that nothing else mattered. All he saw was his fingers travelling over the clay. He'd never wear the gloves when he's working with his art. He loved feeling when his hand mouth's tongue's licked the clay. Luckily he couldn't taste anything with his palm mouths.
A sudden flash filled his room with light and Deidara looked up from his work only to find Konan standing in the doorway with her beloved camera in her hands. "You just looks so lovely, Dei-chan."
He holds back a groan when Konan sat down at his bed and quickly moved the clay out of her reach. He'd learned from earlier mistakes never to let Konan touch any of his artwork.
"How did you get in here, un?"
"The door wasn't locked so I walked in. You really need to pay more attention. One day a stranger will walk right in. Which reminds me ofPain gave me a lot of information about Akasuna."
Deidara leaned back against a wall. A look at the papers in Konan's lap told him that his would take some time. Maybe it wasn't such a good idea after all.
"His full name is Akasuna no Sasori. He's seventeen years old and his only relative is his granny, which he's living with when he's not at Akatsuki's place. He's the third oldest member of our school's gang besides Kakuzu and Hidan. He gets good grades and loves art."
With that Deidara leaned forward and took the papers out of his friend's hand. "What kind of artist is he, un?"
"I think he makes puppet."
"Wonder if he know what real art is, un." Deidara mumbled. "What did you say?"
"Nothing, un. Just thinking out loud. What else is there about him?"
"As we both know he's dated a lot of girls. Not only from our school. It's almost a game or some kind of a weird hobby to him. He prefers people with long, blonde hair and blue eyes. It's best if the person has both."
"Konan, we've a problem, un."
"What is it?"
"I'm a boy, un."
"So?"
"I won't dress like a girl, un."
"So? Akasuna likes both genders."
Deidara sat in silence while Konan digged something out from her bag. "We'll need to make some changes if you're going to get Akasuna's attention. First of all you need to lose some weight. I'm not saying that you're fat but it wouldn't hurt. You also need a new wardrobe and then we'll have to do something about your hair."
With a sigh Deidara took his cap of and let his hair fell down. "Dei-chan, why do you wear a cap when you have such a beautiful hair?"
"It's that or mum cuts it, un."
"Well, this will make our work a lot easier than I thought it would be. Now, I've made this schedule. Follow it and Akasuna will never know what hit him after the vacation. "
Deidara took the paper Konan offered him and nearly groaned. It didn't seem like he would get much free time in this vacation.
5 o'clock. Wake up.
5.15 meet with Konan to train.
7 O'clock to 12a.m. work.
12.30 p.m. Studying with Konan.
17.45 p.m. dinner.
18.30. Training.
He didn't know what to do. It seemed like his friend had planned this really good. Maybe they really had a chance.
The blonde artist grinned. Konan was right. Akasuna no Sasori would regret playing with others hearts.
So, what do you think? Is it good, bad or what? Review, please. I want to know or else I won't update.
Next chapter: First schoolday has started and it's time for Konan's plan. Poor Deidara.
Why you ask? Well, if you wants to know... REVIEW ... and wait for the next chapter.
Until then.
