Some of the other students had mentioned to him in passing that getting on any of the members bad side would cause him trouble in the long run. He didn't care and was fairly certain he was on the wrong side of two of Akatsuki's members anyway.
First off was a popular student, Itachi Uchiha. He was popular but never said much, at least as far as he knew. A couple of years back Itachi had beaten him in what was supposed to be a friendly little practice run in track. Ever since that cloudy day he had been in what he had a feeling was probably a one-sided competition with him. At least until he got a rematch and won.
Secondly was Sasori Akasuna. They just didn't see eye to eye on art. 'It's without a doubt, fleeting, un.' He thought while heading into the aforementioned classroom. It was his last class of the day, for that he was grateful.
He hadn't been having a particularly good day and only hoped that it wouldn't affect his meeting with a contact later on that night.
///////////////////////////////////////
"See the light yet, brat?" He asked sarcasticly. Deidara took his seat which to his dismay was beside the Senior student. "Not in the mood today, Akasuna, un." He shot back without so much as a glance.
Much to his surprise Sasori actually let him be while they listened to the teacher drone on about the use of pencils and shading. He had some inner amusement at the fact that he knew Sasori, was as bored as he was with this since they both knew most if not all of what the teacher was saying.
Such was the next forty five minutes until the bell rang, it took almost all of the self-control he had not to just jump up and run out of there.
///////////////////////////////////////////////////
He didn't have to look to know that a couple of people were watching him while he was walking out of the school and down the sidewalk to head back to his apartment. It was a little un-nerving but he would be away from there soon enough.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
"You can't be serious." Sasori said as he and Itachi turned back to face the gang after they had cast a quick glance at the disappearing blond.
"I am. Considering we need one more person and I know by fact he has the fighting abilities to rival ours." Their leader, Pein, crossed his arms.
"Have you forgotten that he's not exactly like us?" Sasori glanced over at Pein.
"Things change." He spoke in a tone that meant no more back talk on the matter.
If the younger teen failed to co-operate with them then he would turn him into one of them and then he would have no choice but to accept being a member. Plain and simple.
//////////////////////////////////////////
Time slowly slipped by but now it was ten forty pm and he was preparing to leave to meet an informant. They were somewhat expensive but it was one of the only ways to get information regarding his target right now without a high risk of getting caught.
Last check a week ago, they still thought him to be dead. Which worked out just fine for him but he still couldn't be too cautious. After making sure he had everything he would need, he walked out of the apartment and locked his door. Unaware of how much things would change in such a short time.
//////////////////////////////////////
While keeping to the shadows on his way to the park, he walked in silence while a full moon and a sky full of stars lit up the sky. It made some parts ahead of him easier to see but more difficult to keep hidden.
//////////
'So far so good, un.' He thought while he casually approached his target while the time on his watch changed to eleven on the dot.
"Good to see you made it cousin." The man nodded his head at him with a grin for greeting a family member. A cover in case anyone was nearby.
"It's been awhile. Did any of the other family get to make it on the same flight, un?" His way of asking if the man had been followed. Having done this so many times before it became natural. Something he both liked and loathed.
"Not that I'm aware of but Aunt Irma did send you the photos like she promised." He held out a sealed white envelope
"And I have the Nature photo's like I said, un." At the same time the two held up an arm and exchanged the products. "You still meeting Tatsuki next week?" The brunette questioned while pocketing the envelope containing his money for the information. He had a feeling the kid wouldn't like what he saw but he wasn't getting paid for voicing such thoughts.
Besides, something about the blond felt a bit dangerous, even for someone in his line of work. 'At least he pays without giving a hassle.' The man thought while the blond slipped his envelope in his own poclet and zipped it shut.
"Yeah. You still have to go to that meeting in the morning, right, un?" He glanced at the man while speaking while casting a quick glance around.
"True, well I better be going. Gotta get rested for that. Getting up at the crack of dawn ain't fun." He shook his head while turning to walk away while the blond did the same.
"See you next time you're in town and thank Aunt Irma for me, un." With that the two went their separate ways.
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////
He was casual about the walk back to his apartment. Not having a further need to conceal himself at the moment. Neither had been followed and the guy was one of the best at his work.
The blond was almost surprised at how empty the streets were, despite being around an area with scattered abandoned buildings there was almost always at least one other person. Normally a drunk staggering home but at least some other form of life out there.
Not long later while he was passing back by one of the shadowed alley's, he heard a clatter from something hitting the trashcans and out of reflex and some paranoia, he jerked his head to left to see what had caused the commotion.
What he saw made his visible blue eye widen considerably in surprise as he was frozen for what felt like an eternity.
The thought of running like no tomorrow came to mind as he saw the Uchiha standing over a body with slightly bloody fangs. As if that wasn't enough the raven haired teen turned to look at him. A frown on his face as he did so. "Deidara?" He spoke while taking a step forward, this was not good.
Without replying he took off running as fast as his legs could carry him and unfortunately for him, Itachi took off after, knowing what he had to do. 'Pein will not be happy about this.' He thought while chasing down the blond.
/////////////////////////////////////////
Being a vampire came with it's own perks. Strength and speed being only a couple of them.
It hadn't taken him long to catch up to the blond but before they could fight, he was quick to raise his arm and strike the back of the blonds neck to knock him out.
The street itself seemed dead and for that he was greatful since he needed to get the blond back to his place. Pein would not want him going free after seeing what he had.
Picking up the unconscious teen, he carried him bridal style and took off in the shadows to return to his apartment.
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Less than an hour later he laid the younger teen down on his bed and went into the living-room to call Pein since he failed to re-group with them.
After a moment of ringing he heard the familiar voice. "We have a problem."
"Itachi? What happened?" Pein's own voice was calm but as vampires they had their own worries. Hunters being one of them.
"I was spotted by Deidara and had to bring him back to my place." What the blond was doing in that area was something he couldn't put his finger on.
Itachi heard an audible sigh before hearing Pein speak again. "Hold him there and I will be by tomorrow. That is all for now." With that Pein hung as did Itachi.
At least he knew the younger teen would be out of it for awhile. But, when Deidara woke up, there would hell to pay and he knew it.
