The Blonde and the Bandit 2

Gun

A metallic tube, from which missiles are thrown by the force of an explosion.

"Guns are neat little things, aren't they? They can kill extraordinary people with very little effort."-John W. Hinckley, Jr.

The Blonde felt Konan let go of his hand as they finally entered a camp site. Deidara looked around at the 'Tents', as Konan had called them. There was a fire burning in the middle of it all.

Deidara looked at the other people in the clearing. Most of them stood up, hands on their gun handles, ready to draw the weapons if there was any trouble.

"It's okay, guys; he's one of us now."

Deidara could sense the tension in the air lessen. They all sat back down, except for one of them whom walked up to Deidara. He had slicked back silver hair with magenta eyes. He wore black jeans, and wore his bandana to the side, so the knot was on his left shoulder. He didn't wear a shirt, revealing his chest which was covered in scars. Hanging from around his neck was a silver pendant. It was a circle with an upside down equilateral triangle inside of it.

"HEY!"

Deidara recognised the voice as the one inside the cave.

Hidan hit Deidara on the arm, in probably what was intended as a friendly gesture, but just left Deidara with a sore arm.

"Hey, un. I'm Deidara." Deidara gave a soft smile.

"So Konan, did 'Angel' run out bullets or could you just not force yourself to fucking kill him?"

"Oh, no, Hiruko stalled on him."

"Hiruko? Sasori's fucking 'Perfect' gun?"

"No, his 'Perfect' gun is Sandaime."

"Oh yeah. I'm fucking lucky that Jashin will never do me wrong."

"…What, un?"

They blinked at Deidara.

"Oh! We're talking about our guns, we like to give them nick names. My gun is called Angel. Hidan's gun is called Jashin." Deidara nodded. "Now, let me introduce you to everyone. You already know Hidan."

"YEAH! Name is Hidan. This is my gun, Jashin, I named him after my God!" He showed Deidara the pendant on his necklace. "My goal in life is to convert everyone in the world to Jashinism!"

The large man sitting on one of the logs by himself threw a rock at Hidan. It hit the albino on the head, making them both glare at each other.

"Oh please, you couldn't convert one person to your stupid religion."

"FINE THEN, KUZU! MY GOAL IN LIFE IS TO CONVERT ONE PERSON TO JASHINISM!"

"Hey there, desu ne. I'm Kisame Hoshigaki. And this is my gun, Samahada." The man had blue skin and looked to be about early twenties. He had sharp jagged teeth and wore his bandana tied to his holster. He also wore a black shirt which had a picture of a shark on it. "My goal in life is for none of us Akatsuki to ever separate."

Deidara recognised his voice from the cave as well.

"This is his partner, Itachi."

The person sitting next to Kisame nodded. He looked to be about 18 years old, like Deidara.

"I am Itachi Uchiha. My three guns are Amaterasu, Mangekyou and Tsukuyomi." Itachi wore a red shirt, along with a pair of black shorts. He had raven black hair and he wore his bandana tied around his head as a head band beneath his bangs. His eyes were coal black and his expression was stoic. "My goal in life…" Deidara saw a small, genuine smile form on his lips. "Is to see my little brother again before I die."

"This is Tsu."

"Hey. I'm Tsu. And this is my gun, Zet." He twirled a sleek black gun on his right index finger. He had very pale skin, dark green hair, and bright yellow eyes. Tsu wore a dark purple shirt and a pair of dark blue three quarter jeans. His Bandana was tied around his left bicep. "My goal in life is to never lose Zet."

"Kakuzu, he is Hidan's partner."

"Hn. Don't forget about my four beauties. Sui, Ka, Rai and Fuu." Kakuzu wore a white tank top, along with a pair of black track suit pants. He had long brown hair and had one red eye and one green eye. He wore his Bandana so it was covering his mouth. Deidara noticed that he had many stitches running over his arms from various cuts and scars. "My goal in life is too become so rich that I will never have to kill anybody ever again."

"And I am Akatsuki's leader." A guy with orange spiky hair stood up. He had several facial piercings. "My name is Pein. My five guns are called Zein, Gein, Dein, Sein and Kein. My goal in life is to keep you all alive."

Pein wore his Akatsuki Bandana as a headband as well. He wore a black tank top and a pair of black trousers. Around his neck was a necklace with various fangs attached to it. He seemed to beam with superiority.

Deidara nodded, looking down.

"And that is- Oh! Sasori! He has two guns. Hiruko, as you know, and Sandaime, which is his so called 'Perfect' magnum."

"Now introduce yourself."

Deidara blinked at them.

"I'm Deidara Iwa…I've been a slave since the day I was born…My goal in life is to…Well…I don't know…This is the first time I've ever been outside, un…All I have is this." Deidara opened the box, soft music filling the quiet air.

Deidara heard clicking noises from all around him. He looked up to see everyone was aiming at least one gun at him, including Konan and Hidan.

Deidara silently pulled a necklace out of the music box. It had a diamond studded dove on it. "It was my mothers before she passed away, un."

"Can I see it?" Deidara nodded and handed it to Pein. His eyes widened as he watched Akatsuki's leader place the necklace into his pocket.

"You will get it back when you have proven yourself as an Akatsuki member."

Deidara gave a sad expression and nodded.

Everyone lowered their guns.

"Sorry bout that, Deidara." Konan gave a sincere smile. "Last time a rookie pulled out a loaded gun. He managed to kill Sasori's last partner, Orochimaru…We can't be too careful. We also have to take something of great sentimental value so you don't want to run away."

"Sounds fair, un." He gave a shrug.

"Now, speaking of Partner, I wonder where Sasori is-" A gun shot shrieked not too far away from the camp site. "…He's over there."

Konan nodded at the other members and started walking to the left. Deidara followed behind, placing the music box carelessly on the ground. He really didn't care much for it.

They moved away from the camp site and Deidara became aware of a weird sound that sounded a bit like rocks falling, only gentler. He saw the back of a person sitting on a large rock. Deidara knew who it was immediately by the blood red hair.

"Sasori!" Konan waved.

Sasori halted. He had been cleaning off his gun, Hiruko. The Bandit grudgingly looked back at the bluenette and the Blonde.

"What is it?"

"Meet your new partner!"

"I already told you, the Brat ain't my partner." Sasori went back to cleaning his precious revolver.

Deidara was suddenly pushed forward by Konan.

"Go make nice! I'm going to leave you two to 'Bond'."

She turned around and walked off before Deidara could object. He rolled his eyes and walked over to the red headed Bandit, sitting down on the rock that Sasori was sitting on.

"…I'm Deidara Iwa, un."

"Do I look like I care, Brat?"

They sat in a minute of silence…Well, almost silence.

"What's that noise?"

"Why don't you look forward and find out?"

Deidara raised an eyebrow and ventured forward a little, glancing over the edge of the rock. He suddenly heard Sasori fire a gun shot, the explosion startling him. He slipped and tumbled off the rock.

The Blonde felt himself get enveloped by a cold feeling. He started to panic.

"Just stop struggling and stand up, Brat."

Deidara stopped struggling, noticing that his feet were still on solid ground. He pushed the muscles and found he could breathe again when he was standing, though he was still cold.

"Better?"

Deidara gave a nod, his body having become used to the cold, the feeling becoming one of soft warmth.

"Good then. You see what you're standing in? It's called 'Water'. You're standing in a 'River'."

Deidara glared at the red head, who was still cleaning the revolver.

"I know what water is, un."

"It's a miracle."

"It's just that…The mine owners that bought water down for us…Told us that water was rarer than gold…And that we would have to work hard just to survive…"

Sasori didn't say anything, just continuing to polish the deadly weapon. Perfectionist. Deidara looked down at the water. His eyes widened at what he saw.

"There's someone trapped in the water, un!"

"…You're a complete idiot. It is your damn reflection, Brat."

"…Reflection?"

"…It is basically a picture of yourself."

Deidara blinked down at his reflection, the picture blinking back up at him. "Wait…That means I have blue eyes, un?"

"Beats me, Brat. I haven't bothered to look. You're not going to last long in Akatsuki, so why bother?"

"They are brighter than Naruto's…"

Sasori sighed, annoyed.

"You just aren't going to shut up, are you?"

"Nope, un."

"I wouldn't be so cocky if I were you, I am holding a loaded revolver in my hands. I could easily kill you."

Deidara shrugged. "If you did then Konan would probably kill you. Akatsuki look out for Akatsuki."

"…Fucking Konan for telling you that rule…Well, since you're in the river, you might as well have a bath. You smell like you haven't had one for years."

"…What's a 'Bath', un?"

Sasori abruptly stopped cleaning his gun.

"…Oh you've got to be kidding me…"

Sasori sighed, obviously annoyed, and stood up. He slipped Hiruko in his left holster.

"Strip down, Brat. I will be back in a minute."

Sasori adjusted his bandana before turning and disappearing into the trees.

The Blonde blinked and looked down once more at his reflection, blinking into the icy azure eyes.

NO! THERE ISN'T GOING TO BE A SMUT SCENE NEXT CHAPTER! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE? I WOULDN'T HAVE ONE THIS EARLY! SASORI DOESN'T EVEN LIKE DEIDARA (yet)!
