An Akatsuki Christmas Carol (I do not own Naruto, Masashi Kishimoto does. I don't own SS501 or Teen Titans either.) If you want to know more about the OCs in this story (Who will appear in more stories), I will publish a fanfiction to tell you about them. Yes, I am Shay. Read the fan fiction now.

A blissful smile made its way onto Shay's face as se knocked on his door. Her tail twitched in anticipation as she waited for him to open his door. Kisame's door unlocked and swung open. His depressed look was instantly replaced by one of joy as he literally swept her off her feet and into a warm hug.

"Kit-Cat! I missed you so much. I thought you forgot about me and Christmas." Kisame said with a slight pout on his light blue lips.

"Kisame-kun, your being silly. No way I wouldn't be here with you on Christmas eve." Shay murmured as he set her back down while holding her hand. Shay then used her shadow to raise herself to around his height and kissed him on the cheek.

"I missed you. It's been really depressing around here without you." Kisame said, whining slightly. Sighing, Shay kissed him again.

"Silly."

"No, you are. I thought you wouldn't be back in time."

"I promised you I would be, silly." Shay whispered.

"Now stop complaining, I'm here aren't I?"

Shay lowered herself and looked up at her friend, her companion, and last but not least, hers. She sighed in content and then remembered something.

"Oh, yeah, I forgot to tell you, I'm having meals with you guys all the way until the twenty-seventh." Shay smiled. It was a rare occasion when Shay joined them for meals since she preferred hunting with Loban and sometimes even Zetsu.

"Really? That's awesome! In which case we should probably head down to the kitchen to make special arrangements right?"

"That's what I was thinking. Come on, let's go!" Shay urged, dragging Kisame out of his room.

Sniffing the air, Shay started walking faster.

"Ham. Turkey. Mashed Potatoes. Green beans. Gravy. Lots of gravy. Mm. Come on!" Shay described, dragging Kisame so fast he was almost tripping over. He sighed and began to run faster through the twisting, turning hallways and staircases.

"Here," Shay said stepping into the kitchen with Kisame in tow.

"Don't tell me, you guys both want ham and Kisame wants to skip out on the vegetables. Dinner's ready in fifteen minutes. Go get the other girls, I got the boys covered. Hehheh." Loban said. Ah, the power of mind reading.

"Sigh. Stay here. I'll get them." Shay said.

~fifteen long minutes later~

"Hey, look who finally crawled out from his emo corner. Merry Christmas Hidan." Deidara teased, hoping to get back at him for sleeping through his Christmas torture.

"Merry Christmas blondie." Hidan half growled. Everyone immediately stopped whatever they were doing to stare at Hidan like he was no longer a phychopath. Shay, Maddi and Loban had trouble holding back their smirks and insane fits of laughter. Luckily, everyone seemed to be too shocked to notice.

"Looks like Hidan's finally gone off the deep end hmm… Hey Hidan, un, TOBI TRIED TO PUT MISTLETOE OVER YOUR DOORWAY UN!" Deidara shouted out of desperation to get Hidan back to his usual deranged self.

Hidan merely cocked an eyebrow at Tobi while Deidara was going into shock.

"Deidara, shut your mouth and breathe. Hidan, why are you acting like you don't hate Christmas?" questioned Shay, playing it like she was just as clueless as everyone else.

"I really don't know, I had a weird dream just now though," Hidan replied even more confused at what was going on.

"Hidan, can you sit down so we can start eating already?" Loban asked, growing bored.

"Sure un, that was still the weirdest thing I've ever seen…"

"Uh huh…"

~Later~

"Alright, I assume you guys are wondering why I made all of you stay in the living room after dinner… Well, where I came from, everyone gets to open one of their presents on Christmas Eve. To make this easier, everyone opens the present their partner got them okay?"Shay explained."

"Okay…"

"YAY! We get to open presents before Christmas!"

"…" various replies resounded throughout the room.

"First up is Loban." Hidan said, surprising everyone again. She opened her present from Inari which was a drawing of her and the rest of the Akatsuki.

"Nice. Thanks Inari." Inari just smiled at her before opening her present from Loban which was a mix tape of all their favorite songs.

"OH. MY. F**KING WAY. Shay, how in all of f**king hell did you manage to get a SS501 fanpack with personal items from each of them and original copies of the CDs and DVDs?!!" Maddi screamed, almost hysterical

"I know them. Called them up one day with a number I found online and we ended up being friends. Glad you like your present." Shay smiled at her friend's absolute joy at her present.

"Hey Shay, open your present now."

"Okayy… Oh My God. How did you get this?!!" Shay asked as she looked at her present. Sitting in the middle of the dark blue tissue paper was a Teen Titans communicator.

"That's not the whole present. That thing isn't even cosplay. Open it." Shay did as she was asked and to her utter joy, the screen buzzed to life and revealed the faces of Robin, Starfire, Beast Boy, Raven and Cyborg.

"No. F**king. Way. Maddi? How do you know the TEEN TITANS?!! Oh my god this is, wow. Um, Hey guys! Merry Christmas!!" Shay smiled while almost everyguy there was wondering the same thing 'Who the hell are these people (un)?'

"Hey Shay, Maddi told us not to tell you that so-" Robin started.

"This is Shay? Um, nice to see you! Hey, are you doing anything after the holidays?" Beast Boy questioned.

"Hands off her (un)! She's with me!" Kisame and Deidara shouted at the same time, overprotective as always.

"Don't mind BB there, he's just being an idiot. Hey what's up girl? We've heard a lot." Cyborg finished for him.

"Greetings to you friend! It is nice to be meeting you! I think we are going to be great friends!" Starfire yelled.

"Hi." Raven greeted.

"Yeah, talk to you later guys! Moving on!" Maddi announced as she shut off my communicator. Pein got a 'I am God' T-shirt and Konan got a platinum ring with sapphire in the design. Asuka got a 'Best Friends Forever' scrapbook from Tobi and Zetsu gave him a mask design kit. Itachi gave Kisame a book on long-forgotten water jutsu and received a chakra-seeking katana. Sasori gave Deidara a painting of their Altogether Art technique and as luck would have it, Deidara gave him a charcoal drawing of the same thing.

"You don't celebrate Christmas, so this is just a present Hidan. You're annoying as all hell most of the time, but still my partner. So, here." Kakuzu said, shoving a present into his hands. Unwrapping it, Hidan realized it was a wire cord, the kind he had connecting his scythe and his pike.

"Before you say something stupid, press the button on either end of it." Kakuzu explained. Doing so, hidden metal spikes revealed themselves to cover most of the cord.

"This is f**kin awesome Kakuzu! I knew you don't hate me as much as you say you do." Hidan teased.

"Open yours Kakuzu." Hidan gestured towards a nearby present that was wrapped strangely .

"Hidan you continue to surprise me." Kakuzu commented and reached over to grab the present. He opened it to reveal a cappuccino colored young cat with neon green eyes the same as his.

"The eyes aren't the only thing you guys have in common, as you can see. The guy I got him from said he got into a bad accident when he was a kitten which explains the stitches. Besides those, guess why no one adopted him. Its also the reason I got him for you. That cat literally had nine lives. Has eight cause of the accident. Also, watch this." Hidan stuck his hand out to attempt to pet the cat. The second his hand was within range, the cat went ballistic and shredded his hand to a bloody mess. Hidan retracted his hand and wiped off the blood.

"Now you try it. Even with your tentacles. Trust me, I know what I'm doing, I think." Kakuzu hesitantly stuck his hand near the cat to pet it. Instead of inflicting clawed hell on him however, it licked his hand and nuzzled it with its head. Kakuzu tried petting it with a few of his tentacles with the same result.

"A cat that likes me and hates Hidan's guts. I could get used to this. But I still-" Kakuzu was cut off by Hidan.

"He knows how to hunt and take care of himself, don't worry about it. And get this, the owner said he only responded to the name Yen (A/N: which is the Japanese unit of currency for those who didn't know)." Hidan explained further.

"If Kakuzu was a cat." Maddi lamented.

"Geez, this cat is awesome Hidan. Thanks man." Kakuzu was probably smiling behind his mask, but no one would ever know (A/N: Not even me, the author, knows! I respect the mask.).

Zetsu got black and white venus fly trap plant, heaven knows how Asuka found one and then the gift exchange for that night was over.

"Come on Yen, let's go back to our room. See you guys in the morning." Kakuzu said, smiling another probable smile.

"Not even when he pounds on Hidan have I seen Kakuzu so happy. Christmas really is the best holiday. Hidan, where the hell did you find such a perfect cat for him? Maybe… did you see one like me?" Shay asked.

"No, I didn't see one that looked exactly like you." Hidan said, turning away from Shay to catch Deidara's eye.

For the next hour, the rest of the Akatsuki and their various affiliated members hung around the living room, watching TV, playing with their various presents and such. Slowly, people started heading back to their rooms until the only people in the room were Shay, Maddi, Hidan and Deidara.

"Hey Hidan, you mentioned something about a dream before dinner un, what was it about yeah?"

"It showed me being nice and kind to everyone and doing all sorts of nice things. It might have influenced me because for some reason, I don't have a chance to think before I just start blurting out fluffy nonsense. Ugh! I hate this!" Hidan ranted. Shay and Maddi were trying very hard not to laugh now. Shay had to switch to her fox disguise so her expression would not give them away.

"Hey guys, I'm gonna sleep now I can't stand waiting around for Christmas to come. See ya in the morning." Shay announced.

"Good night, un."

"Bye."

"See you."
