Here's the sequel to Escape from Konoha. If you have never read it, I suggest you read the first story. This story's summary was different from the summary I posted on the last chapter on Escape from Konoha.
Summary: After a mission, Ino and Deidara are together happily, but is ruined when Madara falls in love with her as well. With Deidara's secret threatening to escape, how will Ino deal with it? MadaxInoxDei, SasoSaku
Please give me any suggestions as they are helpful.
Ino took labored breaths as Deidara pulled out the arrow lodged in her stomach. Deidara looked pained as Ino's face contorted in excruciating pain. She dug her nails into Tobi's arm, hard. No noise was coming from the masked man to lighten up the mood. Even Madara looked concerned behind the mask as the blonde girl continued to cut his arm's circulation. Oh well, he'll just get another one.
So, what had happened? Well, Pein was his usual bossy self back at the hideout and ordered the trio to get information from Iwakagure. Deidara swore that after that mission, he'll never go there again. All he did was mutter about how Tobi would endanger the mission and Madara scoffed behind his mask.
The trio then attempted to spy on the Tsuchikage unsuccessfully. Well, ironically, because of the bomber's lack of stealth, he was the one who got them discovered. By blowing up a clay bird.
"Well, where else was I supposed to put it, un? You expect there to be an odd bird flying around and that the old fart will not find out that I'm here, un?" Deidara's comeback was as Ino hit his head hard and called him a baka.
"Well, at least explode it somewhere else! You've given them, our location!" Ino hissed as Deidara started to make another clay bird to get them out of the village.
"Tobi thinks that Deidara-sempai is stupid!" Tobi said.
"What, un?" Deidara screamed as he moved to strangle Tobi, but Ino stopped them by hitting them both on the head.
"You bakas, this isn't the time to argue. We need to escape!" Ino said.
Deidara and Tobi nodded. "Yes, Sir," Deidara said playfully as he got on the bird while avoiding a punch from Ino.
Grumbling, Ino pulled Tobi on the bird and they flew away. Just then, the Tsuchikage ordered arrows to be shot at the Akatsuki trio. Deidara narrowed his eyes as he began dodging the arrows skillfully. The arrows would just go through Tobi and Ino was keeping up with Deidara, or at least until more archers came.
Ino cursed as more arrows were shot. They were only a mile away from the entrance of the village.
When they got out of the village, Ino sighed. At least no one got hurt, but she didn't notice the arrow aiming towards Deidara's head until it was too late. Without thinking, she pushed him down and got hit by the arrow instead. She winced in pain as Deidara turned towards her.
"What the hell was that for, you-" he was interrupted when he saw blood on her hands. His eyes widened as he saw an arrow sticking out of her stomach.
"What? I don't get a fucking thank you for saving your sorry life?" she asked, breathing in and out.
"Shit, un," he said, panicking. "It's my fault, I'm sorry, un!"
"Tch, you don't have to worry about me," Ino said.
Madara narrowed his eyes at Deidara. Tobi said, "NOOO! Ino-chan needs to get healed!"
"No shit Sherlock," Ino said as the blood spread further. She took off her cloak to reveal her fishnet shirt and ripped a piece off. "Dei, take out the arrow," Ino said.
"What?" he asked his eyes widening.
"Hurry up, I can heal myself. If you don't take this out, there might be an infection," she said.
Deidara nodded and held the arrow. "It's going to hurt, un," he said. She nodded and he began to pull out the arrow.
Ino's hands immediately tightened around the closest thing to them: Tobi's arm. He winced a little as she held him in a death grip. When the arrow was completely removed, she paired and then her hands grew green as she healed her wound.
Deidara sighed in relief and wrapped his arms around her slim waist making her gasp. "Don't scare me like that, un," he said. Madara was giving his 'sempai' a death glare even if he didn't feel it.
"Yeah, whatever," Ino said. "I'm fine!"
"I know, it's just that you scare me all the time with you getting hurt, un. I fucking hate that," Deidara said.
"Your point?" Ino asked.
"I don't want you getting hurt anymore," he said. Ino was about to answer, but felt something soft pressed up against her lips. Deidara was kissing her! She closed her eyes and kissed back slowly.
His arms were still around her waist as he deepened the kiss a little. Her hands were messing up his hair. Tobi felt like a third wheel and was about to say something when.
"Eek!" Ino screamed. Deidara pulled away, looking confused. Did he do something wrong? Of course, he just kissed a girl, duh! He mentally facepalmed.
"Sorry, Ino, I just-" Deidara started.
"Sorry, it's just the hands," she said. Deidara sighed and pulled her onto his chest. She blushed.
"I love you, un," Deidara said. Tobi almost fell off the bird and Ino blushed.
"Dei, do you mean it?" Ino asked.
"Every word, un. I swear to fucking Jashin," he said.
Ino giggled. "That's great because-because I love you, too," she said, kissing his cheek. He wrapped his arms around her and placed his chin on her shoulder. They stayed like that for the whole flight back.
When they got back, Deidara found that Ino was sound asleep. Although they failed the mission, Deidara was happy to finally have a girlfriend. Not only did the woman he loves loves her back, but now he can prove to Hidan that he isn't gay.
He smiled and picked her up bridal style placing a kiss on her forehead and hopped off the bird with Tobi. Sometimes, he wished that he would forget Tobi was on board and explode him. No, he doesn't even deserve to be art in his eyes. Shaking his head, he exploded the bird with a "Katsu!"
Unsealing the boulder to the hideout, he was greeted by Sakura and Sasori.
"Looks like you guys are back," said Sasori. Over the months, Sasori grew friendlier with Deidara for telling him about love and for being nicer to him.
"Hey, Danna," Deidara said.
"Hi, Dei and Tobi-kun!" Sakura said. "Wow, you should put Ino back in her room fast. Didn't you forget the last time she woke up with you carrying her?"
Deidara paled as he remembered about a month ago, they were on a mission and she fell asleep. She woke up to see Deidara holding her and thought that he took advantage. The poor blonde ended up with two black eyes and bruises that stayed even after Sakura healed them.
"It's okay, we're together now. It's different, un," he said.
"Congrats, Dei," Sakura said excitedly.
"Good going. Now you can prove that stupid Jashinist wrong," Sasori said. Deidara smiled and put Ino in her room. He watched her as she slept and ended up falling asleep next to her.
Tobi peered through the crack of the door, clenching his hands. 'Damn you, Deidara!' he thought. 'That girl will be mine! I know your little secret, Deidara, I would be more than welcome to share it with her.' he chuckled darkly as he backed away from the door.
"Zetsu, I know you're there," Madara said.
The plant man appeared out of the wall behind the masked Uchiha. "So what were you doing, Zetsu?"
"You shouldn't be trying to keep them apart. We never knew that you were that cruel, Madara. We know that you will always try to get what you want. In that case, we'll try to stop you. Fucking swirly lollipop head. If you weren't the leader, we would've eaten you a long while ago," Zetsu said as he disappeared back into the shadows. Madara narrowed his eyes. It was out of character for Zetsu to be protective over them. He sighed. Oh well, it just makes things a little harder. He walked outside for some fresh air.
