It's been awhile since I've bothered to update this fanfic. Here it is!

"Stop being so dramatic, Hoshigaki! It's just a little bald spot. Just comb that stupid hair of yours over it and bam! It's fixed!" Jukua rolled her eyes as she watched her partner rub his bald spot. She found his freaking out of the incident hilarious and pathetic at the same time.

"Shut up, woman! It's easy for you because you have all of your hair!" Kisame didn't like being bald, even if he was sort of over doing it. It was just a small piece of his hair missing and you couldn't notice it if you brush it a certain way. Still, Kisame felt embarrassed to have a small patch of hair missing. It just didn't look right on him.

"Yeah, it is easier for me, 'cuz I got all my hair."

"I fucking hate you."

"Right back at you." Jukua yawned. "Come on, shit brain. Let's get this stupid mission over with before next year."

Kisame sighed and put on his bamboo hat. Maybe nobody would attack them on their journey to the land of fire. Then again he was hoping someone would and get rid of Jukua for him. It would be a load off his chest! He would kill Jukua himself, but he figured that Pein wouldn't be too happy about that since Kakuzu was the one who normally did so and the man was already upset to have to find a new partner for the akatsuki's treasurer.

After a while of walking, Jukua started complaining that she was hungry, so the two stopped at a stream to catch some fish. The Kiri-ninja decided to let Samedaha loose in the water just to make the medic ninja upset.

"DAMN IT, KISAME! GET THAT THING AWAY FROM ME!" she cried quickly shifting away from the water.

"It's not going to attack you…unless I tell it to." The shark smirked as the woman got a terrified look on her face. "What? Are you scared of Samedaha?"

"Scared? Hell yeah I'm scared of that thing! I don't care what you say! That thing is dangerous! I don't even know how you sleep at night with the thing!" The medic ninja jumped when the sword jumped out of the water and almost bit her foot off. "That's it! I'm leaving!"

"I thought you were hungry."

"I am, but I'd rather walk 2 miles more to the next restaurant then be here with that sword!" the young woman quickly gathered her things and ran off.

"Good girl, Samedaha." Kisame patted the sword. "Now that she's gone, I'll just rest a bit."

After what seemed like an hour, Kisame woke to the sound of someone being attacked. Getting up to investigate, he saw that it was only his sword, but it was attacking what looked like a young girl. The sword was on top on her chest, attempting to tear her face off with its sharp teeth. Meanwhile the girl was holding it up and trying desperately to throw it off to no avail. 'Shit.'

"Samedaha, down!" Upon hearing its name, the sword came over to its master. "Hey, you alright?"

The young girl stood up and nodded, carefully watching the sword. Kisame noticed that the young girl had gotten quite the injuries from the sword especially her hands. It seemed that she had attempted to grab the handle of it and quickly learned how much of a mistake that was. When he reached out to touch her, she quickly pulled away, a frightened. "Don't worry, kid. I'm not going to hurt you. I'm going to heal you."

After a bit of hesitation, the young girl came over and allowed herself to be healed by Kisame. When she saw him reach for Samedaha, she panicked a little, but then calmed down when he petted it and it started purring like a cat. The shark quickly apologized for his sword's behavior.

"I'm really sorry about that." He said smiling nervously. "So…uh…are you alright now?"

She nodded as she blushed. Kisame couldn't help but to smile. She was very pretty girl and would undoubtfully make someone a very happy person when she got older. "Well I'd better get going. My partner's waiting for me."

The young girl nodded and walked off. Whether it was his imagination or not, he could have sworn he saw the girl look at him longingly, as if she wanted something. However, the shark just shrugged it off and kept going with Samedaha.

"Who was that? Your little girlfriend?" Jukua said smirking from behind a tree, scaring Kisame.

"Shit! You scared the hell outta me!" Kisame gripped where his heart was. How long had the woman been standing there?

"Don't avoid my question, Hoshigaki. Who was that little cutie?"

"She's way too young for me. I'm not a pedophile."

"Who says she's a kid? She might be a midget." Jukua said handing Kisame a bag of dango. "Are you gay?"

"Where did that question come from?" the shark choked on his dango.

"Well you're never with anyone, so I just assumed…"

"Me and you aren't close like that, Jukua, so we don't hang out." he explained clearing his throat. "Therefore you don't know who I've been with. Besides, I've never seen you with anybody either, but you don't see me asking if you're a lesbian."

"I was just asking, Hoshigaki." she smirked. "Come on now. Are you gay? If you are, it's okay. It's better than nothing. After all, there are some men that might wanna fuck you."

"Same to you, bitch." he said glaring at her. "Anyway, Samedaha attacked her so I just…"

"See! I told you that thing was a threat!" She said staring at the sword.

"No, it's not! Samedaha is just playful!" Kisame stroked the sword, which purred. "You wouldn't understand."

"Yeah I wouldn't." she rolled her eyes. "I guess only monsters get along with other monsters."

"Whatever." the shark said sighing. He couldn't help but to think about what she had said. Not about him being a monster, but about him being gay. Kisame wasn't sure what he was yet. He was always so busy with missions and training that he never really had any time to date. Kisame basically felt neutral towards either gender that he came across. He had never really thought about settling down and having a family or getting a girlfriend before. Was it even possible for a girl to find him attractive? He wasn't sure. Jukua's opinion wouldn't even matter in this case as she was the last person's opinion he even wanted or needed.

"We should stop for the night." Jukua said after they had walked for quite some while. "Hey, who's that foxy lady over there, Hoshigaki?"

"What are you talking about?" when the former Kiri-nin turned to see what she was talking about, he saw the girl once more. She appeared to be glancing in the window of a toy shop. She looked a little too old to play with toys so it was possible she had a younger sibling or cousin she was shopping for. He slapped Jukua on the back. "Oh shut up, you!"

"Come on, Jaws! Go on over there and get your thing on." she gave him a playful nudge in the girl's direction.

"We just met, idiot! Besides, I was only helping her out and…"

"Excuse me…" Kisame jumped. He had not seen or heard the young girl walk up to him.

"I'll leave you two be. I'll check us in at the hotel." the medic nin winked at the two before walking off to the hotel ahead.

"You don't have to leave!" Kisame yelled at her, but she continued to walk off grinning like a Cheshire cat. "Damn it."

He looked at the girl again and cleared his throat. "Uh…so…did you want something?"

She nodded and gave him a nicely decorated package. He carefully grabbed it from her and opened it up to reveal curry inside. She bowed. "Thank you for saving me."

"O-oh…thanks." he bowed back. "It was no problem really."

"Hn." she didn't look at Kisame's face, but he could tell she was shyly smiling and as red as a tomato.

"Well I gotta go." Kisame was about to leave when the girl grabbed his cloak. "Huh?"

"Here." she said quietly. She handed him another package, this time longer and a little thinner. Upon opening it up, it was the scroll they were supposed to deliver while on their mission. Jukua had probably dropped it when she thought Samedaha was about to attack her.

"Thanks." he pocketed the scroll. He suddenly noticed her ninja headband.

She said nothing and just stood there blushing and playing with her hair. After a few more moments of awkward silence, Kisame decided to go inside before Jukua got any ideas about why he had not joined her yet. He turned and said, "Well, see ya."

"Good bye…Kisame…"

"How did you know…" when he had turned around, she was gone like magic. 'Where did she go? I guess I can't be surprised as she is a ninja.'

Once he got inside, he saw Jukua chatting with another woman at the hotel counter. When she saw him, she grinned. "Hoshigaki! There you are I was wondering where you were!"

"Can you just give me my room key? I'm not in the mood for your mouth."

"Too bad, Jaws. There was only one room with two beds. Lucky us, huh?" she smirked and Kisame hated her more than ever now. He knew what she was doing. She just wanted to get a room with him so she could tease him.

Sure enough, once they got to their room, she bombarded him with questions. "So, what did she want? Huh? Huh?"

"She just wanted to thank me for saving her." Kisame shrugged.

"Then what's that?" she asked pointing at the cutely wrapped and decorated box.

"She gave it to me as a present."

"Ooooh! Looks like Jaws found a girlfriend!" she giggled. "Ya gonna eat it? You should as you wouldn't want your girlfriend's cooking to go to waste."

"Don't say stuff like that Jukua! Besides, maybe her mom did it for her and she just had it on hand when she saw us and gave it to me as thanks. It's no big deal."

"Sure it wasn't. You're such a liar! You like her don't you?"

"No! I'm taking a shower."

"You can't hide forever, Hoshigaki!" She yelled after him. "I WILL FIND OUT MORE ABOUT YOUR LITTLE GIRLFRIEND! YOU'D BETTER TAKE ADVANTAGE OF HER NOW CUZ YOU'RE NOT GOING TO GET ANOTHER WOMAN WITH THAT HUGE ASS BALD SPOT!"

Kisame sighed as he ran his fingers through his hair as the hot water ran down his body. He could finally be alone. Stupid Jukua. Why did she have to be so nosy? Now she would spend the whole night trying to find out false information about him and the young girl from earlier. Speaking of which, how did she know his name? Well she was a ninja after all, but at her age, he doubted anyone had told her about the akatsuki yet. After all, he was an S-Rank crimin

"However she knew my name, she probably knew how I was…" he noticed a tiny hole in the wall. "…too…what the heck?"

He squatted down and looked at the eye sized hole. In the hole was an onyx eye staring back, "AAAAAAAAAH!"

He screamed falling over and getting wrapped up inside of the shower curtain. There was someone staring at his…He felt violated. Once he looked up, the eye was gone. Was it just his imagination? He shook his head. No, it had to had been someone watching him.

"Everything alright in there, Hoshigaki?"

"Shut up!" he growled as he came out of the bathroom with his pajamas on. "I don't wanna talk about it…"

"Oh…I see…you were jerking off and slipped."

"I WASN'T MASTURBATING!"
