Chap 01: Cosplayers in my shed...?
Freedom. The first thought that entered my mind when my mom and dad told me about the plans for this summer.
My mom had decided to let me live in our house for the summer while her and my father are off snorkiling in Cuba. Apparently they want to have some...alone time... and want to teach me some responsability. The deal was that she'd call everyday at exactly 5:30 on the home phone or either mine or my brothers cell phone.
But you see, this is where things get complicated. And I get into a load of trouble.
Let me explain in a little more detail. You see it all started when I was arriving home from a friends house at around 2 in the afternoon...
"Jack! I'm home!" I shouted, flicking my shoes off at the entrance to my house and waltzing in to the kitchin.
At the table sat a young boy on a laptop staring contently at the screen while he visiously knocked off some zombies heads with a rusty pipe. He ignored my presense untill I gasped. "Hey, Is that Dead Island?" I asked peering over his shoulder.
"Yeah, now go away. You're breathing on my neck." He muttered. I huffed at him. "Don't be rude to me. I'm in charge. Oh, I'm going to go set up the hamock." I said. He paused the game and looked at me.
He had big chocolate brown eyes, courtisy of my mother, and a shiny set of hair. Me on the other hand had a pair of blue eyes, from my dad, and expresso brown hair that reached just below my shoulders...thanks to the hairdresser.
"I'm heading over to Danny's." He said.
"You two are like one person, I swear."
"Yeah, yeah. I'm staying the night to, don't be to freaked out without me." He smirked. I laughed cruelly. "Me, scared? I laugh in the face of danger!" I laughed, quoting the lion king.
He turned away from me and walked out to the main entrance. "The dog's in the garden." He said. I watched him pick up his bag, pillow and a blanket and walked out the door.
I inwardly sighed. In all honesty I hated being alone, ecspecially at night. Strangely enough It was me who was the one to drag my friends to see the horror movies and the haunted houses. Well maybe I'll just call Zara over... Zara.
My fellow anime freak/friend. She was more than a lot obsessed with anime, thanks to me.
Her newest obsession? Naruto. Thanks to her, I've recently started watching it again and reading. The Akatsuki are our favorite. "IthinkI'llleaveZarafortonight.Ireallyneedtofacethisstupidfearofbeingalone."
Outside its warm. There's a nice breeze that brings a scent of freshly cut grass to my nose and I inhale deeply. "I just love summer." I whisper in a dream like state.
Walking over to my shed I look to my right to see the dog, Kasey, a black and white shih-tzu digging in my strawberry patch. "HEY, DOG! GET OUT OF THAT!" I scream.
She looks up at me with a muzzle full of dirt and starts to race around the garden like a mad man. I stare at her, amused slightly. I laugh to my self before I come face to face to my shed. raise my hands to undo the lock.
Knock My hands stop midway from un-latching the lock. Did I just hear...? I wait for a moment, frozen stiff before my mind deems it safe.
Un-latching both of the locks takes a minute, and I stand tall looking straight into gray, ringed eyes. "Huh?" I muttered dumbly.
Before I could blink I was thrown to the ground with bone breaking force and a foot was slammed into my stomach. "Jesus Christ!" I gasped, tears threatning to spill.
Wincing, I slowly looked up to my attacker. My eyes were met with a unpleasent sight. Kisame. "Oh...oh my god..." I croaked. Some fucking crazy cosplayers are going to kill me. Some fucking crazy...really good cosplayers.
His smile twisted up into a wide grin, his teeth perfectely filed to look like shark teeth.. Woah, those look real. "Fuck Kisame, I need a fucking sacrafice to Jahisn! Let me fucking kill the cunt!" I didnt even have to ask who that cosplayer was.
I groaned as 'Kisame' moved his foot around on my stomach. "Let me...ah...let me go!" I whispered, my voice horse. No reasponse came.
"Kisame. Let her up." I felt the foot being lifted alomst immediantly and I curled up into a fetal position, clutching my stomach. "Damn it... You cosplayers are so going to jail." I coughed.
There was an awkward silence where I slowly made it to my knees, looking up to the 8 men infront of me, who had all came out of my shed.
There was Kisame, who was grinning ear to ear, Pein, who had (thankfully) felt the mercy to tell Kisame to lay off. I saw a very pissed Hidan cosplayer, a Kakuzu beside him. In the back was a Zetsu, Sasori without his puppet and Deidara, who looked extreamly amused with the current situation. Itachi was looking detached from the situation but was still watching me carefully. Last but not least was Tobi, who was running around with the dog absoulty going nuts when she jumped up and took his gloves.
I stood tall, wincing slightly. I needed to show these crazy narutards that I'm not scared of them. I stood defiantly looking into the eyes of Pein, and placed my hands firmly on my hips.
My back was arched over slightly, as I tried to keep the throbbing pain in my stomach to a minimal.
"You listen here! This is ilegal! You are trespassing, breaking and entering and have assulted me! I hope your happy when the cops come to take you away!" I yell, forcing my voice to sound impaient and angry.
It doesnt work however they can easily tell my voice is shaking with fear. The men, excluding Tobi who was still playing with the dog, were all staring at me with intent to kill.
"No. You listen here littlegirl, you better watch your mouth around us. If you know who we are you'd keep your pretty little mouth shut. Do you have a death wish, yeah?" My eyes found their way to the speaker. Deidara.
My resolve crumbled. My arms that were deifantly placed on my hips fell and I nervously fiddled with my hands. My eyes fell to the ground. These cosplayers are crazy. Absolutly nuts.
"Now tell us girl, what are these 'cosplayers' you keep talking about?" The question came from the leader.
My head snapped to him my anger at its boiling point. "You! You guys are dressed up just like the Akatsuki, probley here to play some sick joke on me! But let me tell you, its not funny!" Nearing the point of tears from furstration, pain and fear I used up my last ounce of courage to yell at this cosplayer.
His eyes narrowed to slits and a thick air of tension arose.
My heart pounded in my chest but I stood tall. They all could tell I was teriffied which made me even more terified. I stood no chance against these men. Akatsuki or not. Lets face it, I was doomed.
"That makes no fucking sense! Leader just let me cut the bitch open already!" Hidans fusha's eyes were blazing with an intense blood lust. I swear my heat nearly popped out of my chest.
"They'regoingtokillme.Theyreallyare." Another thought came to me, that maybe, just maybe, just maybe these guys were the real deal. In that case I was in even more danger. But how ridiculous that would be, stuff like that only happens in fanfiction. Finding a little more courage after convincing myself that these men were not the Akatsuki I found my voice again.
"A-Alright! I want some proof if you're the real Akatsuki!" I said. I heard a cuel laugh through the crowd.. "You want proof? How about your death as fucking proof?" Hidan sneered, his hand held the handle of his scthye ready to pounce on me.
There goes the last bit of my courage.
"Enough! We are here in this strange world and this girl may be our only way out of here." Pein said. At the very least I was stunned. This man, a cold blooded murderer, was standing up for me. I could have kissed him.
He turned from Hidan to me, a dangerous gleam in his eyes. "What is your name?"
"Kaya." I responeded slowly relaxing.
He turned to his men. All of their gaze fell onto him and away from me, I felt an immense pressure lifted just from their gaze. They were discussing somethimg in hushed voices and I occasionaly heard my name.
My gaze left the group of men and fell onto Tobi, who was chasing the dog around the garden having the time of his life screaming "Kasey is a good girl!" I sighed, they were ment to be together.
After a few tense minutes I went to move, awkwardly shifting my feet on the ground. I was getting anxious. What were they talking about?
"Um, guys…excuse me…" I whispered. They broke apart suddenly and Pein turned to me. "We have a plan, and if you don't comply we will kill you. Understand Kaya?" He asked.
I nodded my head, what other choice did I have? "We are the real akatsuki. If you want proof…. Deidara…" He looked to Deidara and if by a silent message the blonde bomber raised his hands and two mouths, one on each hand, opened and a tounge wiggeled around.
My mind was blank, no scream, I didn't even bat an eyelash. Somehow I had already accepted in my mind that this was actually happening. "Your real." I said stunned.
"That's what we've been trying to tell you, little girl." Kakuzu said, folding his arms.
"Back to the plan. You obviously know that we're not from here and so we are uncostumed to the people and laws here. I've decided to make your house our living corrders and you will be our guide to this world. If you agree to this I will not allow my men to kill you or harm you and we will listen to whatever laws you have in this world. As I have already said if you do not agree we will kill you." Pein said.
The rest of the Akatsuki looked unhappy that they would be taking orders from a 'little girl', but since their leader said so they had no choice in the matter. I gulped. These guys were the real deal.
Suddenly I felt embarressed by what I was wearing and what I looked like. A pair of short spandex shorts and a very baggy shirt that reveled a small bit of my stomach, amost showing my belly button made me feel uncomfortable around these men.
A light blush found my cheeks as they stared at me fixing my shirt and pulling it down so it covered me up properally.
"Well, lets all g-go inside so we can talk… more comfortably…" I drawled off trying to shift the attention to something else. My eyes looked over to Tobi who had Kasey up in his arms and was bounding over to us.
"Look Sempai! This is Kasey! She's a very good girl, and she likes to play with Tobi!" He yelled. Deidara scoffed and ignored Tobi completley. Tobi looked down, hurt from Deidara's coldness but imdeiantly rebounded.
Tobi looked straight at me, well he was wearing a mask but his head was in my direction. "Kaya! That's your name right? Kasey's your dog right? She's such a good girl!" He yelled spinning around holding Kasey up into the air.
I was breathless, already exhausted with his hyperness. I forced my cheeks to go up into a painful smile. "Yea, she's a good girl." I said.
The Akatsuki fallowed me into the house and into the living room.
When they all were in the living room I guestered for them to take a seat, since I was to flustered for words. They sat in the chairs around the room, Pein and Tobi in the rocking chairs, Hidan, Sasori and Diedara where sitting comfortably on the couch and the rest stood.
"I'll agree to your terms." I said. I felt a heavy pressure on my cheast.
This was actually happening. The Akatsuki were in my house and they would be living here.
