BP: Yay! I got around to updating ANOTHER story! I know what you're thinking…what is WITH this girl?! Why is she coming out of her lazy slump?! Well, I'll tell you why! It's because school is starting soon and I want to enjoy my stories while I can. I'm going to be lost in the haze that is academic learning and I don't want to!

Anyways…I'm sure you don't care about my rambling. Ten to one says you're not even reading this. So I'll go ahead and start the story I guess!

Disclaimer: Come on…do you think I would be writing this stuff? NO! I'd be MAKING it HAPPEN!

Pink Like Cotton Candy! A Flower? No, Cotton Candy!

"What is it Deidara-Sempei? It's pink and fluffy…oh! Is it Cotton Candy! Tobi thinks it's Cotton Candy! Can Tobi eat the Cotton Candy?" The ninja in the swirled mask looked from a lump of spiky pink…something, to the blonde haired nin.

"Stuff it, Tobi! Before I stuff you!" Deidara snapped as he clutched his kunai tighter and placed a hand on one of his clay bags. He paused for a second, wondering if he should attack the pink ball or wait for a move. It seemed wrapped up in a red cloth…

"Yes, Tobi…besides, that thing could always eat you instead." The plant chuckled slightly, licking his lips. Perhaps what lay before him though, could be his next meal.

"Oh! Tobi wouldn't like it if Cotton Candy ate Tobi!" The boy yelped as Deidara shoved him back till he landed on the ground.

"I said stuff it Tobi!"

"Ack!"

They brave men of Akatsuki…found themselves tumbling back in fear as the pink bush erupted and a small, pale body came with it.

"W-wha…?" Sakura rubbed her eyes, her tiny hands searching for a kunai as she looked at the men before her. Ignoring their bashful faces she finally managed to grip on. "Now I've…I've…" A hand traveled to her throat as she felt the skin, almost as if the problem lay there. Her voice sounded way shriller then it should…and why was the kunai a lot bigger?

Staring down at her body…the naked body of a six year old. She let out an embarrassed scream as she dived once more for her red dress, trying to get it to stay on. What had happened?! What had Tsunade DONE to her?!

"Tobi doesn't understand…"

"The hell, yeah?!"

"Can I eat her?"

--

"Lemme go! Lemme go!" Small fist beat on the back of her carrier. She had made them all turn away from her six year old body and wrapped her shirt and skirt around her like a toga. It wouldn't last…but it would do. Though honestly she found it strange for S-Class criminals so have a decent side.

"Can I eat her now?"

Yup! She was wrong.

"No, yeah!" Deidara let out a frustrated growl as he tried to hold the wiggling girl on his back still. Tobi kept running a head of them then turning back to run around Deidara and look at Sakura before repeating the process again. "Tobi, stop it! You're making me dizzy, yeah!"

"Aww, but Deidara-Senpei!" Tobi whined as he made another round, coming close enough for Sakura to lash out at his shoulder on accident. The blow had been chakra filled and caused the excited nin to fall back on his butt. "Wow…Tobi thinks Cotton Candy-Chan sure is feisty!" He cheered as he hopped back up in a matter of seconds.

"I am not a Cotton Candy!" Sakura yelled as she banged her first on Deidara's back. If the blow had knocked the weird kid down, why wasn't it doing it to the blond haired freak?! What if…what if she couldn't control her powers! 'Oh come on Sakura…you're six years old and in the hands of Akatsuki. Your powers should be the LEAST of your worries!'

"Lemme go! Lemme go!" She cried out again as he reached out to try and grab something, only to realize what she grabbed was Tobi's hand.

"Tobi thinks it's nice to meet you, Cotton Candy-Chan! Tobi's Tobi! Deidara's Deidara-Senpei! And the Plant is Tobi's old Senpei, Zetsu-Senpei!"

"Tobi…the introductions are nice…but can you please shut up." Zetsu murmured, his voice light at first and then growing deeper.

"Aww…Zetsu-Senpei! Tobi was just being a good boy! Like Tobi always is! Tobi just wanted to introduce his friends to Cotton Candy-Chan.

"I'm…" Okay, Sakura had to admit that Tobi wasn't all that bad. Sure…it may have been just a little weird that he talked in third person but hey! If that was the worst of her problems with her then she had a feeling they'd get along just fine! "I'm not Cotton Candy-Chan!" She pouted out again. "My name is Sakura! SA-KU-RA! It's like the Sakura Blossom!"

"Blossom?" Tobi tilted his head in thought as he (well, Sakura thought he was anyway) stared at her. "Nah! You're hair reminds Tobi more of Cotton Candy then it does some stupid flower!"

"Some…stupid…" Sakura started squirming again, her somewhat friendly feelings toward the goofy Akatsuki member now melted away by her anger. "I'll kill you! I'll kill you!" She screamed and squirmed even more when a gloved hand covered her mouth.

"Will you shut up you little brat! We don't need anymore attention then we've already got! How much closer to the next base, Deidara?" Zetsu growled.

"Zetsu-Senpei! Tobi thinks you should watch it or you'll smother Cotton Candy-Chan!" Tobi panicked as he tried to get Zetsu's hand off of Sakura's mouth. The small girl was trying to do the same seeing as how the split man's had was big enough to cover her mouth and nose. Oh…the curses of being trapped a six year old.

"Will you two please just up, yeah!" Deidara wasn't sure how many times he'd told both of them to keep quite, but either way it wasn't working and it was ticking him off. He jerked Sakura away and shoved him into Zetsu's arms, making a few quick hand signs. "Just let me get past the genjutsu and we'll be clear, yeah." He growled.

Sakura struggled once more, hoping the plant man was weaker then Deidara. "Lemme go!" Zetsu sighed as he held her tightly, wondering why someone somewhere hated him so much.

It was only a few minutes later (each one filled with Tobi's begging to hold Cotton Candy-Chan) till they were inside and the genjutsu was back in place.

"Fine, you want to hold the brat then by my guest!" Zetsu sighed as he shoved the pink haired child into the bouncing Tobi's arms. "We're going to go talk to Pein and see if we should just kill her or what." Zetsu spoke the last part softly, with a hint of hunger in his voice as he bypassed them.

"Zetsu's right, we should find out first. Keep an eye on her Tobi. That's an order, yeah!" The blonde grinned before turning to follow Zetsu, both of them disappearing into the darkness.

"Oh! Cotton Candy-Chan! You're going to have so much fun here! Tobi just knows it!" Tobi shuffled Sakura in his arms as he made his way down the halls, half skipping and half jumping. "And wait till you meet the others! Tobi knows we'll all be fast friends!"

"Ah…Tobi-Kun?" Sakura asked. She decided that if she was going to make it here alive (if the leader agreed to it first…oh PLEASE let him agree to it!), she'd have to start acting her age. Well, not her mental age, but her physical on at least. So if that meant playing innocent to deceive others…then innocent it would be!

"What is it Cotton Candy-Chan?"

"Can you please put me down! I wanna prove I'm a big girl and walk there on my own!" She puffed out her tiny chest and held her head high. God how she wished she could stab herself with a Kunai right now. 'Did I…ever really act like this?'

"Okay! Tobi bets the others will be so impressed to see such a big girl like Cotton Candy-Chan!" Tobi's voice was ripping with enthusiastic rainbows and bishie sparkles. How Sakura knew that she could tell, but she just knew if voices could be seen that's what would be floating out of his mouth. Maybe a few flowers. Oh…wait…he thought flowers were stupid. She'd have to get him back for that one.

"Yay! Thank you Tobi-Kun!" Sakura let out a fake giggle of happiness as she followed the masked Akatsuki member.

"Anything for Cotton Candy-Chan! Oh, wait till the others see you! Tobi knows they'll be happy to have Cotton Candy-Chan here to brighten up the place! There's Kisame, he looks like a shark! There's Sasori…he's a puppet man! Tobi thinks that's so cool! But…Sasori says Tobi's not good enough o be a puppet." The boy sniffled as he came to a door. "Oh! We're here already! Get ready, Cotton Candy-Chan!"

Tobi burst open the door. "Everyone! Tobi's here and he has a knew friend! Tobi wants everyone to say hello and be nice to Cotton Candy-Chan!"

Three members looked up from their card game while the lone one in the corner looked away from polishing one of his puppets. Kakuzu grunted as he looked back at the cards. "Go away Tobi, I've got money riding on this game."

"Going crazy, eh Tobi?" Kisame's polite like voice chuckled as he laid down a card. "I know it wouldn't take to long.

Tobi blinked, well, if you could see him you'd know it. He slumped slightly, tiling his head. "Tobi doesn't understand."

"Damn it Tobi, we don't want to play with your fucking imaginary friends." Hidan hissed as he also went back to his cards.

"But Cotton Candy-Chan isn't one of Tobi's imaginary friends! All of Tobi's imaginary friends left Tobi! But Cotton Candy-Chan is right-" He turned quickly to point out the small girl. "There!!" He pointed at an empty spot next to him.

"…"

"…"

"…"

"Fucking idiot…"

"COTTON CANDY-CHAN IS GONE!!!"

--

Sakura snickered slightly as she dashed though the halls of the Akatsuki lair. "That was a lot easier then I thought! Now…if I could just figure out how the hell to navigate around here. I just need to find one exit." She pleaded to thin again as she took a few more turns.

She jumped slightly in her run when she heard Tobi scream. Fear ran through her as she wondered whether she was that close to him or if he was just that loud. "I've got…I've got to…make it…" Sakura panted slightly, finding her small legs to be getting tired faster then she thought they would.

"I can…do it!" She gasped for breath. Her small muscles were aching and her little lungs felt as if they were on fire. "Ah! Freedom!" She spotted a small light up coming from one of the rooms. Maybe if she went though it, there'd be a way to the outside! A small, tired smile shown on her face as she made a turn into the room…and ran into something so solid it not only knocked her back, but her little nose felt crushed as well. Holding her hurting snout she looked up at what she had ran into.

"Ah…" Fear. Cold fear ran straight though her veins as her eyes widened at the person in front of her. Never in her life, never, had she had such a feeling of dread wash over her as she looked into those eyes…those bright, piercing eyes.
