I do NOT own Naruto!!!
Kidnapping,Meetings,and Choking.
"Deidara and Tobi, I want you two to go to Konoha. There you find this girl." said Pein, handing Deidara a file, which he opened to see a three year old girl. "You will capture her and bring her to me." Deidara was still staring in disbelief at the picture. Tobi was staring at the picture, looking exited, or at least that's what you would have thought since you couldn't see his face behind his rediculous, orange mask.
"Leader-sama, this girl... she's three, yeah." He said not accepting the truth of his thoughts.
"And?" Pein looked at Deidara as if he was stupid.
"If I may ask, why are we capturing a three year old?"
"She has a special kekkei genkai that we can use. So we will train her to be loyal to our organization."
Deidara nodded his head in understanding and him and Tobi left the room. They walked to the boulder covering the entrance to their hide-out and preformed the handsigns. It moved out of the way allowing them to exit. They walked outside while Deidara was molding a clay bird, Tobi was reviewing the girls file.
"It says her name is Sayomi Tsukino, Deidara-sempai." Deidara ingnored him. "Tobi can't wait to meet her!"
"Why?" He knew he'd regret asking but Deidara asked anyway.
"Tobi thinks she has a kind look in her eye..." Deidara stared at Tobi. He'd thought Tobi would say something stupid but that was exactly what he saw when he looked at the picture, kind eyes. He finished the bird and threw it in front of him. He preformed the necessary hand signs yelling "Katsu!" A large clay bird appeared in front of them and they climbed on. Deidara noticed on the way there that Tobi was being awfully quiet. He looked back to see Tobi reading the file. They stayed quite all the way there landing outside the gates. Deidara removed his cloak so he wouldn't draw attention. They were walking down the trail when Tobi tripped. He tried to grab Deidara's arm and catch himself but slipped, yanking Deidara's ring off and accidentally throwing it. Deidara felt the ring slide off his finger.
"Tobi! You idiot! Give me back my ring, yeah!"
"Tobi doesn't have your ring, Deidara-sempai, Tobi dropped it when he fell."
"Tobi! I'm gonna fucking kill you, un!" Deidara lunged at Tobi, who barely dodged it.
"Deidara-sempai we need to find it!" said Tobi, he then started looking in the bushes. They searched for hours but couldn't find it.
"We have to capture that girl,un. We'll find it on the way back." Deidara said, reluctantly. They started walking to the gates again Deidara still complaining about his ring. They weren't paying attention and Sayomi walked right past them. She overheard Deidara, "I can't believe you made me loose my ring,un!" She ran out the gates, determined to find his ring and return it. She walked along the path checking from side to side when something shiny caught her eye. She walked over to it and found it was the ring she'd been looking for, for three hours. It was almost night-fall so she held the ring tight and ran all the way back home, deciding to find the man tomorrow. The next morning she awoke to the wind blowing in her raven colored hair. She sat up and looked around. She nearly screamed. She was on the back of a giant clay bird. She saw the blond man and the man in the mask. The man in the mask looked at her.
"Deidara-sempai! She's up!" he yelled over the blowing wind. Sayomi stared at the blond, as he approached, withbig, onyx, eyes. He leaned close and picked her up. He carried her over to where he had been and practically crushed her. He had her in his lap with his arms wrapped around her, keeping her restrained. They landed a few minutes later. He jumped off and the bird got smaller. He did a hand sign and yelled,"Katsu!" and the clay bird exploded above. Sayomi was to afraid to speak. They walked over to a bolder and performed some handsigns. The boulder moved aside and they entered a cave, the boulder shutting behind them. The blond set her down and was leading her to a room when the masked man said,
"Deidara-sempai, we forgot to find your ring!"
The blond stopped dead in his tracks and was about to start cussing when Sayomi pulled his ring out of her pocket and held it out. They stared and then the man took it and put it back on, a big smile on his face.
"Where did you find it,un?"
She was so nervous she she didn't think she could talk,"I...I found i..it outside the gates along the trail." she said, gaining more confidence as she told him.
"Oh, well...uhh..." She could tell he didn't thank people often.
"You're welcome." she said with a smile.
Tobi then picked her up, "Sayomi-chan is soooo cute!" Sayomi giggled and then thanked the man in the mask. Deidara then took her from Tobi and brought her to a large door. He knocked and they heard a deep voice say, "Enter." They walked through the door.
"Hello, Sayomi Tsukino, I'm am the leader of Akasuki." Pein looked at the girl. She suprised Deidara, by stepping toward the leader, and looking deep into his eyes. "You will be staying with us. You are not to cause any trouble." She nodded, not taking her eyes off his. "You will sleep on the couch until I can find you a room. You are dismissed." She nodded and exited the room with Deidara.
"Now,un. You need to meet the other members." They started walking. As they were reaching the first door she grew nervous and grabbed Deidara's cloak. He looked down at her to see her staring at the first door. He smiled at her when she looked up and she gave him a weak, shaky smile. They stopped at the door and Deidara knocked.
"Dammit!!!" He opened the door and screamed in Deidara's face,"You fucked up my ritual!!! You better have a fucking good reason for that!"
Deidara looked down at Sayomi.
"Sayomi, this is Hidan,un" Hidan looked at the little girl.
"H...hello. I'm S...Sayomi." she said bowing slightly. Hidan looked at her for a moment.
"Why the fuck is there a three year old here?"
"Leader said we would train her to be loyal to our organization and awaken her kekkei genkai... or something like that,yeah."
Hidan looked at the girl again. She looked nervous. What compelled him to be nice he didn't know but he found himself crouching to look her in the eye, "I'm Hidan, nice to meet you." he grumbled. He stood up and shut the door. Deidara was surprised. That was nice... for Hidan. They continued walking to the next door. This time a man with a mask covering half his face answered.
"What do you want. I was in the middle of counting."
"This is Sayomi,un. She's going to live here now and I'm introducing her to everyone."
The man looked at Sayomi with red and green eyes.
"H--hello, I'm S---Sayomi." she said shaking. She bowed slightly and then just looked at him.
"Kakazu. And if you want to live don't touch my money, or bother me while I'm counting." then he slammed the door. They just continued walking to the next. Tobi answered this time.
"Hello Deidara-sempai! Hello Sayomi-chan!" Sayomi giggled and Deidara gave him an annoyed look. Deidara continued to the next door, ignoring Tobi. "This is Sasori no Danna's room." Deidara said and then knocked on the door. The next man had a mask covering half his face like Kakazu. He also had a tail with a sharp point. He looked at Sayomi and then Deidara. "Leader said she'll be living with us so I'm introducing her to everyone,un." He turned back to the girl.
"I'm S...Sayomi." she said wearily.
"Sasori." then, he shut the door, like everyone else. They walked to the next. A tall, blue, shark/man opened the door. He smiled at Sayomi, showing rows of sharp teeth. He completely ignored Deidara, as he tried to tell him why she was there, and squatted down to Sayomi's level (almost).
"Hey there. What's your name?" he asked nicely. Sayomi smiled and let go of Deidara's cloak, stepping forward.
"Sayomi. What's yours?" she liked him. He seemed really nice.
"Kisame Hoshigaki. Nice to meet you, Sayomi." She couldn't help herself, she smiled even bigger. He chuckled a little and said he was gonna go get some lunch, heading in the opposite direction. They headed to the next door, well Deidara tryed to just pass it but failed miserably when Sayomipulled him by his cloak. He reluctantly knocked and they waited. A moment later a man with raven colored hair and oxyn eyes answered. Sayomi stared at him. He looked a lot like the boy, Sasuke, from the village, who's family had been murdered. Deidara refused to look at the man. The man looked at her, no stared her down.
"H--hi, I'm Sayomi." she told him.
"I'm Itachi. May I ask why you are here?" He was so polite she noticed.
"He said it was because Leader said I was going to live here to be loyal to your organazation and activate my kekkei genkai." she told him pointing at Deidara. She smiled at him and Itachi hid a smirk at how much she looked like Sasuke when he was her age. Deidara quickly dragged her along, away from Itachi's door, after their short conversation. That was the most Itachi had ever said at one time, that he knew of. They walked back towards the living room. They heard the boulder move and Deidara mumbled,"That must be Konan." They walked in a moment later to see a blue haired woman. She looked at Deidara then Sayomi. A big smile broke out on her face when she saw the little girl. Sayomi smiled back at Konan and ran up to her. Konan picked her up. "Hi, I'm Sayomi!"
"Hi Sayomi, I'm Konan."
"Konan-san, do you like origami?" she asked looking at the oragami rose in Konan's hair.
"Yes, I love origami. Why?"
"I love origami too!" she looked delighted that there was someone there that liked the same stuff as her. Deidara thought back to her file and remembered, it said she liked art. He'd have to ask her about her view on it later.
"Oh, you do!? How would you like to do some together later?"
"I'd love to!" Sayomi looked absoulutely exstatic.
"Alright, I have to go report to Pein, but later we can do some in the kitchen, OK?" Sayomi nodded vigorously, earning a laugh from Konan. Konan set her down and walked towards Pein's office. Sayomi turned to Deidara.
"Who's next, Dei-san?" Deidara looked at her a moment, not used to the nick name.
"Uhh... let's see,un. You've met Leader, Konan, Hidan, Kakazu, Sasori no Danna, Kisame, and... Tobi." He said the last name in an annoyed voice.
"You forgot Itachi." Sayomi pointed out.
"No I didn't,un. I left him off on purpose." He said, with a pissed off/deep in thought expression. Sayomi decided not to question why.
"So, who is left?"
"...Zetsu. He's probably out in his garden,yeah." at the word 'garden' Sayomi's eyes sparkled and she ran to the boulder. She jumped up and down waiting for Deidara to do the hand signs. As soon as the boulder opened Sayomi squealed and ran outside. She ran to the left.
"This way,un!" Deidara yelled, going in the opposite direction. She ran past Deidara and soon found a small garden full of flowers. She was looking for a particular flower and didn't notice the weird black and white, plant man coming up behind her. He was about to pick her up when Deidara yelled "Zetsu,yeah! Don't eat her!!!" She turned around and smiled at Zetsu despite what she just heard.
"I like you flowers!" she said "oh! I forgot my manners, I'm Sayomi! Nice to meet you!" she said.
"We're Zetsu." "Thank you." She smiled at him.
"Do you have any moon flowers?" she asked out of the blue.
"I'm afraid we don't." "Why, do you like moon flowers?"
"Moon flowers are my favorite kind of flower!" Zetsu looked thoughtful for a moment. He watched her squeal every time she found a flower she liked. (Which was almost every time she found a new flower.) She found a rose bush and studied the roses, intently. "I found a blue rose, once." she said, glancing at Zetsu.
"Really?" Zetsu asked. Blue roses were a rare flower to behold, he himself had seen only a fair few.
"Yeah. I found it in the forest. It was growing on a vine near a waterfall." She said, deep in thought. "It was beautiful." Zetsu looked at her for a moment. Why had she been in the woods in the first place, she was three years old!
"When did you find this rose?"
"On my third birthday." she replied thinking of the day.
"How old are you now?"
"Almost four. My birth day is June 10th." Her birthday was a little over a month away.
"Hey,un! Will you come inside now!? It's almost dinner time,yeah!" Zetsu and Sayomi looked at the sky, it was starting to get dark. They must have been talking for an hour at least!
"OK! Are you coming to dinner, Zetsu-kun?" she asked. She really liked Zetsu. He was nice, once you got to know him. The white side smiled and said,
"Yes, we'll meet you there." and then he disappeared into the ground, leaving an astonished Sayomi. She ran over to where Deidara was waiting (impatiently, if I might add) and they went inside. They walked into the kitchen to find there was no room at the table for Sayomi, Deidara sat down without noticing. The table was set and w they were about to dig in when Konan said,"Hey! wait a second. Where's Sayomi?"
Zetsu appeared in the kitchen at that moment and walked over to Sayomi. He picked up the three year old and sat at the table, her on his lap. Everyone stared at the odd sight but did not question and began eating. Zetsumade a plate for the bothof them, with a little troble manuvering around the small three year old. He handed her, her plate and she jumped off him and ran into the kitchen. Zetsu saw the three year old sit on the floor, against the counter and slowly eat the food on her plate. Konan looked at where Zetsu was looking and her expression softened when she saw the lonely three year old. She watched for a moment and she started to panic when Sayomi grabbed her own throat and started coughing. She began to turn blue and Konan got up and ran to her. Every one stopped talking to see why she had ran from the table, knocking over her chair. They saw a choking three year old and stared wide eyed as Konan admistered the hymlic manuver. A small piece of a chicken bone flew out of her mouth and on to the floor. Deidara and Zetsu were the first to get up and run over to her.
"Are you alright sweetie?" Konan asked, relief coloring her tone. Sayomi nodded, not able to talk just yet. Deidara let out a sigh of relief and went back to the table to tell everyone she was alright. Hidan pretended that he didn't care, being the cocky bastard he is, but everyone knew otherwise. They all had been worried, most of them had only said one word to the girl and they were worried.
"Zetsu-kun, Konan-chan, can I go to bed?" she asked in a scratchy voice. Zetsu nodded and Konan said, "Of course! Would you like to do Origami tomorrow?" Sayomi smiled and nodded. She quickly hugged Konan and, surprisingly, Zetsu and ran to the living room. She lay on the couch and rolled around, a little uncomfortable, and finally fell asleep, dreaming of her new life in the Akasuki...
