Chapitre Une

Deidara scowled, his lips turning into a frown as he reflected on what happened in the past several hours. His blue gray eyes staring down at the scroll he had found in the rubble of an old Akatsuki Base.

Flashback

The usual sky blue sky was unusually tar black, stained by the smoke of burning bodies, villages, and terrain. The sounds of heavy fighting echoing through out the land hollowly, but mingle together and deafened by the rolling thunderheads.

Fire element techniques battled water element techniques. The fire burning everything in its path, and everywhere it can get it's burning tendrils on. The water would in turn put out the fire, and flood the area. The lightning element techniques battled wind element techniques and the wind element techniques were fighting earth element techniques at the same time.

Each combating element spurned one or the other on. The wind strengthened and gave life to the fire for its burning of everything. The water conducts the lightning and sprays everywhere while drenching the area, with the wind creating gigantic waves. Earth could feel itself being flooded due to the water and burned by the fire. The water it absorbs makes the terrain muddy and dangerously slippery. In certain areas of the earth provided strength for the wind.

Nins battling Nins. Ones that were once allies in peace became bitter enemies in war. All the villages became a part of the problem without a solution in sight. The five great countries became battlegrounds for various bloody battles.

Even Konahagakure, well known throughout the lands as a pacifist nation and greatly strong, became embroiled into the conflicts. Sunagakure, battling in its own land held and advantage over Yukigakure. Yukigakure being a snow village was used to the cold desert, but not the hot desert. Konohagakure fought in their land, the trees to their advantage against the Nins from the Kirigakure.

Organizations like Akatsuki and some others were fighting each other for the possession of the great beasts.

Akatsuki, with their nine man S-class criminals had an advantage over the rest of the various organizations spread throughout the five great nations. Akatsuki had some of the strongest Nins from strong and well-known villages like Sunagakure like Sasori, and Konohagakure like Uchiha Itachi. As well, a Nin from not well-known villages like Iwagakure- Deidara, and Kirigakure- Kisame.

Uchiha Itachi, a Nin from Konohagakure. He has mastered the Mangenkyo Sharingan. The Sharingan being the kekkai genkai of his clan, it is rumored to be descended from the Byakugan. Akatsuki had and still does Kisame, one of the seven legendary swordsmen of Kirigakure. He has the appearance of a shark, and wields a vicious weapon called the Samehada. The Kiri-Nin has an impressive amount of chakra and can control it well.

Another Akatsuki Nin is Sasori, he hails from Sunagakure. He is one of the three great puppeteers of Sunagakure. The other two are Chiyo-sama who is his grandmother, and Kankurou the second oldest siblings of the Kazekage. An Iwa-Nin is also an Akatsuki Nin. Not much is known about him, except that he's an S-class Nin that wields art expertly. The Iwa-Nin had mouths on his hands that help him with his clay. His view of art is that it is a band, and figures making things explodes is beautiful.

There is five other Nins, but they are enshrouded in mystery.

Akatsuki members were separated from each other. They were going to seal the five-tailed demon, but they could not, since their enemies ambushed them.

Each nin were fighting their own separate battles, their battles for their lives. Deidara himself, had fought many of the enemy nin, and killed them by making his clay take forms of animals and surprising them, when they were in the right position he'd make the clay go 'boom' when he made the hand seal for them to explode.

After dealing with the nins that ambushed him and the rest of the Akatsuki he turned tail and fled, wanting to keep his life and his clay. When he took cover, he could hear the fighting Nins and sounds of the building in which they were together prior being destroyed slowly from the inside and out.

Eventually the hideout had fallen, and he was sure he was the last one left.

He created a large clay owl to take him far away from the destroyed base. He ordered the owl to take him to the base located on the borders of the Land of the Wind and the Land of the Fire. As the owl slowed down and descended, Deidara could see what had happened to it. The scents of charred wood struck his nose giving off the scent of a lit and burnt out match.

Blocks of stone stained with burn marks of fire represented the foundations of it. Charred wood of the walls, were still smoking, and the half-way charred tiles of the ceilings were about to fall apart. The man was sure that the beds and blankets as well as the pillows there were burnt to crisp.

He descended downwards even further, but remained at a safe distance. The sounds of paper fluttering caught his ear and he could not pinpoint the location. So, he lifted his bangs that covered his usually covered eye to use the scope in place of the left eye that was covered to look around. After, supplying some of his chakra to it, the scope activated giving him a keen sense of sight in that eye. He looked around at the ruins again and saw a part of the scroll flutter.

"So that's where the sound came from un" he mused delicately as he created an osprey. The Osprey was medium sized and a bland dirt brown color of clay. When it was completely created, he ordered it to retrieve the scroll. The osprey obeyed without question. Quickly it flew down to get it, and quickly got it in a tight grip in its sharp claws.

It made him wonder sometimes, how can the birds see clay or not when the sky is as black as wet tar. When the bird returned he let his bangs fall over his eye to cover it again. After cutting off the chakra supply it shut off.

"A scroll? One that had survived the fire, it must be fire resistant" he mumbled to himself. A lazy smirk was plastered on his face as he made another clay bird to spy for him. He made it special by putting on a special mark on it's back.

"Thank you un" he said lightly and they flew to a safe abandoned cabin that had yet to be touched by the war. He came to the cabin that Akatsuki rarely used and jumped off the bird. The bird quickly went to the tree and so did it's partner the osprey to spy and be on the look out for him.

End Flashback

His gray-blue eyes blinked as he looked at the seal on the scroll. It read 'World' in kanji in black ink. The writing was slightly feminine.

"If I can open this I might get cursed. What should I do un?" he spoke to himself unsure of what to do.

He looked over the scroll again as if looking for anything dangerous to his health. But he didn't see a thing.

His birds twittered and peeped loudly so he could hear it. They were alarmingly fast and that told him enemies were coming. With those actions alone caused him to get his blood running and adrenaline activating.

"Oh well… Un. If anything happens to me. The world will never see an artist as great as me" Deidara mused delightedly and in a mischievous voice.

Quickly the man broke the seal on the scroll, half-expecting something to happen, but nothing did.

"Odd" he mumbled airily, and never realized he had held a bated breath. The scroll was blank and he snorted despaired.

"What's this?" he asked angrily, "such a rip off" he growled annoyed with the scroll. Unknown to him after he had thrown it to the side, feminine written kanji appeared on it. He looked over at it to see complete kanji over the entire thing. He crawled over and grabbed it while lying on his stomach.

He read aloud to himself "In the shadows of evil, seven great warriors will rise from the shadows of fear. They stand up to fight a great evil. But one of the seven will disappear at the end of the great journey." After reading it, a delicate blond eyebrow rose confused by it. He snorted and chucked it the side deciding that it was useless.

He heard the sounds of people getting closer to his location. The scroll on the ground it his side, became forgotten when he was surrounded by enemy Nins. Question concerning the scroll mulled in his mind like floating around an endless black voice called a black hole. He did not see the scroll emit a strange aura the chakra uneven and suspicious. He was too focused on getting out alive.

When the enemy Nins were about to attack him, black tendrils snaked around his body and pulled him into the scroll. After, sending his clay birds quickly, as he was half-way in the scroll, he yelled "katsu!" and was gone. He missed the exploding area as he fell through the portal.
