That Idiotic Dimension traveling scroll
Chapter 1
Pein, the almighty-godly- boss of the S-ranked criminal group Akatsuki, stood alone in his office, in one hand a lighter and in the other a scroll. This particular scroll held information to a forbidden jutsu that could transport people to another dimension. Pein thought the idea of dimensional travel to be preposterous.
"Heh, dimensional travel," Pein scoffed, "that's just plain stupid." He glared at the scroll in his hand. After a few seconds of glaring, he opens it. On the scroll, words were scribbled in plain English.
"Those who read will travel now. Those who read this will make thee appear." The carrot-top recites; "Well that was stup-" Pein flinched as the scroll began glowing a shade of light green. The words that were just read float above the scroll like a curse mark of some sort. The words etched in gold circle the scroll at a blinding pace. Pein tosses the scroll at the floor and runs towards the door. A scream escapes his lips as he feels something grasp his leg. He swivels his head around to see a gold strand pulling him towards a rainbow swirl of light. He digs his nails into the cheaply wooded floor and grasp onto it for an advantage. The cheap wood rips away and goes with Pein into the rainbow swirl.
The other Akatsuki members, having heard their leader scream, ran to the office and bust the door down. They exchanged bewildered glances and stared at the glowing ball of colors that surrounded a scroll.
"THE FUCK?" Hidan, the Jashinist, screeched. The scroll released a mighty wind that sucked in the group of nine. Everyone screamed in horror as the group came face to face with a rainbow swirl of colors.
ELSEWHERE
Nikki, a 22 year-old, successful adult, who worked from home and currently lived in California, sat at home working calmly. (A/N: yeah….) She excels in digital art. Her features were pale skin, a petite figure, and poodle, dark brown, above the neck length curly hair with dark brown wide eyes to match. She currently wore a black and white stripe long sleeved shirt that was pulled up, at the sleeves, to her elbows and a pair of black shorts with matching over the knee socks. Her latest creation, or ultimate art as she referred to it, was a company called Zanx. (A/N: I made that up… don't know if there is really a company called like that.) She sat alone in her uncomfortable computer chair sketching furiously on her tablet. In the background loud metal and rock music played. Unknown to her there was a zapping noise behind her. (A/N: Well how could she hear it with all the metal and rock music playing?)
"Yes, I'm done!" Nikki cheered, "No more work for me to-" Nikki froze as a hand wrapped around Nikki's mouth and neck. The girls' eyes widened as she was forcefully turned around. Her eyes widened immensely at the man who stood before her.
'Holy crud, holy crud! It's Pein, I must be dreaming!' she thought to herself as her conscious whispered warnings of reality.
"Girl, where are we?" the Akatsuki leader growled, "stop staring and answer me." Nikki blinked and lowered her eyes to stare at Pein's hands in disbelief and slight horror.
"Hah ha, look at the bitch, she's fucking scared shitless!" Hidan hooted. Nikki turned her eyes to gaze at the room. Her eyes widened even more (if only possible) and seemed to resemble the size of saucers. 'This can't be happening…' she thought to herself and hoped that it was just her imagination but then again not. The pain on her neck and her inability to breathe through her mouth proved otherwise. Her shoulder's slump forward and she let out a breath through her nose holes. The Akatsuki stared back at her with menacing glances.
"Quit gawking at us like that and tell us what land we are in." Kakuzu growled impatiently. Nikki lifted her hands up to her neck but it quickly put them down when her neck was squeezed threateningly.
"Don't try anything." Pein snapped as he released the girls' neck and mouth. Nikki gasped for breath and stared at the group before her. The group glared back with heated stares. She reached inside her pants pockets and secured her fingers around a pair of scissors. She then pointed to the back wall and all eyes followed the motion. With this chance taken, Nikki tossed the scissors violently at the wall and dashed out the open window. Her wobbly, half-asleep legs paced her running as she ran aimlessly. It was night out, a chilly night. The moon shone brightly outside and no clouds were in sight. Everyone was most likely inside getting there much-needed 8 hours of sleep, as Nikki should. Well it is what you would expect in a small California town.
'I have to get away! If that's who I thought they are then its best, I keep running! I don't want to die this young! Not in a dream or reality!' She thought to herself as a horror filled expression etched into her features. Her curly dark brown hair bounced at the base of her neck loosely. She glanced from side to side with foggy, oval, red and black rimmed glasses. She let out a choked gasp as she felt her body crash into something hard and sturdy. The pale brunette fell onto her bottom. She winced and held her head as pain from the blow surfaced.
"Heh! Little bitch don't know how to run fast!" an all too familiar albino sneered, "That was so easy." Nikki sat horrified staring up at the albino. Her eyes were the size of saucers, once again pass their limits, and her mouth hung slightly open. Hidan reached down and attempted to pull up the brunette. She came up in one swift pull from the man.
"Aaah!" the curly head screeched. Hidan jerked back, dropped the girl and stared at her. He rubbed the back of his head in confusion and slight frustration.
"The fucks are you yelling for bitch?" He screeched loudly. He pulled her up more forcefully than before. He didn't have some sanity left her could have yanked the girls arm off.
"L-let me go!" Nikki cried in horror as she pushed herself away from Hidan's clutches.
"Shut the fuck up!" Hidan pressed on the girls pressure points and she fell like a log. She passed out on the ground before him. "Stupid bitch," he grumbled under his breath. He tossed her over his shoulders like a sack of potatoes. Kakuzu watched the whole scene with a bored expression.
"Let's go," the miser, grumbled pulling the albino towards the house. Hidan followed cheering about his victory. Kakuzu just did his best to tune him out which ended with Hidan almost being killed.
At Nikki's House
"So where the fuck are we?" Hidan snapped.
"That's what we were going to figure out but you knocked out or first information source. Idiot," Kakuzu muttered. He pulled up his mask and crossed his arms.
"You're the idiot!" the Jashinist retort.
"I'm not the one who knocked out our information source."
"You told us she slipped, un?"
"Well fuck! It fucking slipped my mind but it's not like we give a damn about her well-being anyway."
"Hidan, like Kakuzu said that was our information source. We never said we cared for the girl." Pein explained as he rubbed his temples. 'These are the S-rank criminals I hired…' he thought to himself.
"Well, what should we do until she-"
"She's awake." Itachi ice-cold voice called from a nearby door, interrupting Kisame mind-sentence. The group got up and headed inside the bedroom they had found. They still had yet to explore the rest of the house. The room the group was currently in was not so big but it wasn't small either. There was enough room to walk in; a bed was pressed against the far wall near a low window. A nightstand was directly next to the bed with a pair of glasses on top. Black and white stripped curtains hung covering the view of outside. The bed coverings matched the curtains but had bloody red under covers. A walk in closet door was left open and inside clothes was neatly folded and hung. Shoes were also placed neatly on top of each other. A laptop was plugged into a wall and a pair of speakers hung into the room with a stand for chargers and wires.
Itachi and Nikki just sat on top of the bed staring at each other. Okay, it seemed as though Itachi was glaring at the girl and Nikki just seemed confused. Her eyes were squinted as though she couldn't see.
"Who are you?" she questioned nervously, "How did you get in my house?"
"Hn," the Uchiha responded. Most of the members resisted the urge to facepalm.
"Well, that's a 'great' answer!" the brunette huffed and crossed her arms. "Where the hell are my glasses anyway?" Itachi passed them to the girl and placed them on her lap. She picked them up and quickly put them on. After a few moments of blinking, she jerked back and pressed herself to the wall. She hugged a pillow like a life source.
"WHAT. THE. FUCK?" she hissed and rubbed her eyes as if she couldn't believe her eyes. The Akatsuki members did facepalm at this.
"What the fuck is wrong with that reaction?" Hidan wondered loudly.
"It's like she-"
"Knows who we are," the weasel finished for the blue fish (man). All eyes fell on Nikki who only glanced frantically from person to person.
"Do you know who we are?" demanded Pein.
'I could lie. Yes, lie, that would be better.' Nikki thought as ten pairs of eyes burned into hers.
"Don't lie," Kakuzu grunted.
'Can he read minds? I don't remember Kakuzu having that ability!' Nikki panicked.
"No, I can't read minds." The miser added, "Just answer the quest-"
"What's this?" Sasori interrupted from his spot next to the nightstand. He held up a picture frame in his petite hands and waved it around. Nikki covered her face as she realized what it was.
"It's a picture of us, un." Deidara deducted as he gazed at the picture.
"Pass that to Tobi, Sempai." Deidara handed the picture to the masked idiot. Tobi gasped dramatically and passed it Zetsu. Zetsu's white said stayed silent while the dark side only chuckled. The picture was passed around the room until it landed in Pein's hands. Pein glared at the photo and then back at Nikki. He repeated this process for a few minutes before passing it back to Sasori. All eyes fell on the trembling girl who kept muttering about this all being a dream.
"How did you get this picture of us?" Pein insisted in a deadly tone, "How do you know who we are? Tell us or you'll simply have to pay with your life." Nikki let out a breath she didn't know she was holding and uncovered her face. She clenched her fist to cease her trembling and looked at the group around her.
"I-In this world you guys are nothing but fictional characters in a popular manga called Naruto." Nikki explained with a stutter, "You were created by a guy called Massashi Kishi-"
"What fucking nonsense are you spouting bitch?" Hidan snapped, "You must be fucking delusional or something because I am fucking 100% real!"
"It's irrational." Itachi agreed. The others nodded in agreement.
"N-No, it's true!" Nikki exclaimed.
"Yeah and I can fucking fly!" Hidan flung his arms in the air and accidently smacked Kakuzu and Kisame across their faces. Kakuzu growled and punched Hidan across his face knocking him over towards the bed. Hidan tumbled forward as Nikki jumped to the floor. The Jashinist landed in the spot Nikki was before.
"Fuck you Kakuzu, you fucking cunt sucking heathen!" The albino launched himself towards the unhappy miser; he was knocked down once again but this time by Kisame.
"Fucking bastard, are you know his body guard fishsticks?" Hidan growled wiping blood off his face and wiping it off on a nearby pillow that was discarded by Nikki.
"Don't wipe your hands off that!" Nikki shouted with her fist waved in the air. Hidan turned around with a sneer on his bloodied and now bruising face.
"Fuck you bitch!" He stuck his middle finger out at her and flicked her off. He then burst out laughing like that similar to a maniac.
"No thanks," she responded crossing her arms. A chorus of "ooo's" erupted through the room as Hidan's face turned and unsightly color of pink. He let out a loud curse before launching himself for the defenseless girl. Nikki took a step back, unfolded her arms and punched Hidan across the face. A deafening crack was heard and it was not Nikki hands rather it was Hidan's nose. The albino's head snapped to the side as his body bended backwards due to the blow. Nikki drew back her hand rather quickly and took one great step back. Hidan rolled slightly to his side, his face was now bleeding profoundly and he cradled what seemed to be a broken nose.
"F-fucking bitch!" he moaned before passing out.
"Ah, I'm sorry! Wait, no I'm not you deserved that!" Nikki crossed her arms and took a few more steps expecting Hidan to regain consciousness and attack her. The sound on clapping brought her back to reality. The lone clapper appeared to be none other than Kakuzu. Nikki and the rest of the Akatsuki stared at him beyond bewildered.
"Somebody needed to put that idiot out and I wasn't about to waste my energy doing that." Kakuzu ceased his clapping and motioned towards Hidan. "That idiot just doesn't know when to shut up but it seems you already know that."
"you believe what she said about us being fictional, un?" Deidara gasped. Kakuzu nodded his head slightly.
"How else would she know all about us or so she thinks." Kakuzu shrugged.
"Or so I think?" Nikki repeated confused.
"Yes, I don't believe you know everything about us but you know a lot." The miser explained, "For example, you were not fazed by our attitude towards each other and the display of violence. That or you are simply used to seeing violence and hearing curses." Nikki shook her head.
"Usually I am the one to do some act of violence and you guessed correctly I am not fazed at all by this display of stupidity and lack of brain cells." Nikki grinned slightly, "My name is Nikki."
"Nikki?" Pein repeated. The girl nodded.
"That's such a strange name." Sasori commented.
"It's pretty common in this world." The brunette informed.
"TOBI LOVES NIKKI-CHAN'S NAME! IT'S SO PRETTY!" Tobi pulled Nikki into a bone-crushing hug. "If you tell anybody my identity, I won't hesitate to kill you." The masked man whispered into Nikki's ear.
"No problem," Nikki gulped fearing her life. Tobi released her and dropped her to the ground.
"If you say you know almost everything about us then you mean you know our past and future, un?" Deidara questioned as Nikki stood up. The girl merely nodded before being pulled into another hug by Tobi.
"Tobi get off me!" Nikki attempted to shove the masked idiot away but only ended with Tobi squeezing her tighter.
"Remember not to tell," Tobi whispered before releasing her. Yet again Nikki fell to the ground. This time she stayed on the ground with her back pressed to the bed and her knees tucked in by her arms. 'This has got to be a dream, yes a dream and tomorrow I'll wake up in bed and this will all be gone.' She thought hastily and hopefully.
"Did any of us die?" Itachi questioned. In other words, his question is if his brother ever killed him.
"Yes as a matter of fact you all died." Nikki announced. She was met with various and unique responses.
"I can't die I'm eternal."
"I will kill myself and go out with a bang, un!"
"Nobody but my dear Sasuke can kill me."
"I don't really mind that I died."
"I can't live without myself. Yes, you can. Oh shut it you!"
"Tobi is a good boy so Tobi don't die!"
"I'm close to immortal and Hidan is immortal so we can't die."
"I am god and Konan is my goddess so we won't die."
"Aww, Nagato~"
"Oh okay…" the brunette grimaced and stared at the group before her. Only in her wildest dream and daydreams did she ever imagine meeting the Akatsuki. 'If only this wasn't a dream…' Nikki thought to herself. A sigh escaped her lips followed by a stifled yawn.
"Sleepy much? I can put you to sleep permanently if you like?" Zetsu suggested. Nikki shook her head slightly.
"Let's move on to the living room." Kisame suggested. Everyone agreed and exited the brunettes' room. Nikki glanced from side to side as she followed the group. Something strange caught her eye and she reached for it. She picked up the lone slightly opened scroll.
"What's this?" she muttered aloud. She pulled open the scroll and stared blankly at the neatly written words. She felt a pair of eyes on her and turned around to see Pein gazing at her.
"Give that to me," The carrot top commanded. Nikki passed over the scroll and stared at Pein in anticipation. He examined it and his eyes widened.
"So what is it?" Nikki questioned.
"It's a scroll." Pein closed the scroll and began to head to the living room where the other members were waiting. Nikki followed behind and took a seat on the floor next to her favorite couch.
"Why are you sitting there?" Nikki questioned Pein.
"What do you mean?" the pierced man inquired.
"The couch, that's my first couch and one I received from my parents so get off it." Nikki pouted.
"I don't have to take orders from you so go into the kitchen and get us something to eat and something to drink."
"But-"
"NOW!"
"Fine, idiot," with that Nikki got up and headed into the kitchen. Unknown to her a certain albino was regaining consciousness.
Meanwhile at the meeting
Everyone observed the scroll on Pein's hands. Pein slowly opened it once more and reread the lines from earlier that day. Nothing happened.
"So this is why we're here?" Kisame questioned in disbelief, "Because of a scroll?" Pein nodded and unrolled the scroll more.
"Is there a way for it to send us back?" Itachi probed. He twirled a piece of his hair and got an odd stare from Kisame.
"That's what I'm searching for." Pein grumbled a he unrolled more of the scroll. The carrot tops eyes widened as the scroll began to glow a shade of red. A burning sensation appeared from the scroll he was holding. Pein tossed the scroll high as the burning got worse. A cloud of smoke exploded from the scroll and the room was covered in a thick red blanket of smoke. Two lone figures stood in the center of the room. As the smoke cleared details on the figures could be seen. The smoke vanished completely and all eyes were glued to the figures. They seemed to be in their late teens but yet again so childlike, they were both males. One had a lightning blue hair and the other had fiery red hair. Both their eyes were an empty grey color; they're skin a pale white that shone brightly making it almost unbearable to stare at them.
"WHAT WAS THAT?" Nikki's voice appeared from the kitchen.
"Nothing~" The duo sung out simultaneously. Nikki didn't respond and took to the answer. Pein began to stand up but the blue-headed male in the middle of the room turned to him. He outstretched his hand and Pein unwillingly sat down. It was as though he couldn't control his body. None of the other members sat up and it seemed they have been put under the same control.
"I am Aka," the fiery red haired male introduced.
"I am Ao," The blue haired male presented.
"We are the spirits that lie inside the scroll; we are the reasons why you have been sent to this world." The spoke as one; their voice mixing like velvet, "But we are not the ones who read the incantations. It was you who set us free and made the curse put in place on you travelers." The duo pointed at Pein. "One of you is missing; we sense a disturbance but do not mind."
"How can we go back to our home?" Pein insisted hopefully.
"You cannot go home until you make the first creature you saw of this world unconventionally happy," Aka explained.
"Then we will send you home but-" Ao continued.
"Unhappiness leads to consequences," Aka interrupted as he wrapped an arm around Ao's shoulder. Ao snuggled into Aka's chest.
"She must be unconventionally happy otherwise something bad will happen." Ao lifted his head lightly and glared at everyone in the room.
"Take notice to our warning or face the inevitable consequences." On that note, a purple smoke appeared and left as quickly as it had come. Everyone regained control of their bodies and stood up. The scroll was in the middle of the room on top of a coffee table where the boys once stood. An awkward Silence engulfed the whole room.
"What was that, un?" Deidara let out a deep breath and scratched the back of his head.
"I don't know." Pein responded flabbergasted.
"Do you really believe what they said?" Kakuzu grumbled, "I don't believe them."
"I somewhat believe them," the leader answered. "It seems so real yet so strange. There is no way to prove if what they said is true. Unless-" A loud scream erupted through the room followed by a laugh that could only be identified as Hidan's.
