"Mommy, Mommy, is that you?" A small girl sat up in her bed when she saw a shadow move across the room and into her cupboard. She pulled the sheets off and lowered her feet to the floor. She fixed her white night gown, and then headed to the cupboard.
"Mommy" She slowly pulled the door open. But, instead of her mother, there was a small boy, crouched down in the corner.
"Hello. Are you ok?" She asked. The boy looked up at her.
"What's your name?" He asked.
"Nia" The girl replied. The boys' body suddenly began to twist and change form. He became a hideous creature, and then lunched forward at the screaming girl before him.
"NOOOOOO" Deidara screamed as he shot up in bed. His hair was mattered to his face with sweat and he was gasping for air. He looked over at Sasori, who was staring at him from his work bench wide eyed.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Argh. Stupid nightmare, un." He mumbled.
"Another one?" Sasori asked. Deidara nodded.
"What was it about this time?" Sasori didn't really want to know, but he knew that his partner would tell him anyway.
"It was the one about the little girl. The one who was looking for her mum, but found a monster instead" Deidara replied.
"Oh" Sasori's attention was back on his puppet. Deidara lay back down, pulling the sheets up to his chin.
He was asleep within a few minutes. Though this time, his sleep was dreamless.
When Deidara woke up the next morning, he was alone. He yawned and dragged himself out of bed.
Sasori was outside, creating tiny little puppets.
"Morning Dana, un" Deidara said.
"How long does it take you to wake up?" Sasori demanded.
"Why? What time is?" Deidara asked.
"Seven o'clock." Sasori replied. Deidara rolled his eyes.
Suddenly, Deidara felt someone tap him on the shoulder. He spun around to see a girl.
She looked about thirteen. She had ink black, scene hair with neon blue highlights, ash pink eyes framed with grey eyeshadow, thick, black eyeliner and thick eyelashes. She was pale-white and was wearing elbow high, fishnet gloves, a black singlet, that revealed her purple belly button piercing and a yellow, pleated skirt over purple skinny-leg jeans.
"Ah…… can I help you?" Deidara asked. The girls' fist suddenly was hurled into his face. He went flying.
In an instant, Sasori had the girl in the air by her throat.
"Why is it that women can be so stupid?" He asked. The girl tugged at his firm hand so she could breathe.
"Let me go and I might tell you." She choked out. She dropped to the ground, landing on her feet like a cat. She looked up at Sasori, who was only a head taller then her.
"My name's Yuki. I came here because that stupid blond bitch failed to save my family." She stated. Sasori narrowed his eyes. Deidara had returned to Sasori's side.
"If you would care to explain what you mean, I'm all ears" he said. Yuki folded her arms.
"Those dreams you were having," she said, "I'm the one who put them in your head"
