"What are you doing, Hidan?" Kakuzu asked. "And where did that poodle come from?"
Hidan frowned as he looked up at his partner, holding the dog out. "I dunno. It just ran up to me and Deidara on our way back from training."
Kakuzu sighed. "I saw a poodle like that earlier..." he muttered. "At some weird hair salon run by preps who look a lot like Itachi and Deidara."
Hidan gulped, and then tried very hard not to blush when Kakuzu reached out, grabbing the poodle from the immortal. His rough fingers barely brushed the cool, icy white skin, and Hidan fought down the blood rushing to his face.
Kakuzu looked over the poodle, then sighed. "No, I don't think this was that same poodle..." he muttered, and Hidan bit back his smile when he remember Itachi had used gen jitsu to change a few details on Tobi, the poodle.
"Yeah, this isn't the shop's dog....so you and Deidara just found it?"
Hidan nodded, looking down at the ground as his partner set the poodle down. "Um...yes...it just walked up to us..."
"Hey, are you alright?" Kakuzu asked, grabbing Hidan's chin and forcing him to look up. "You're really red....do you have a fever?" He placed his large hand over on Hidan's forehead.
Hidan's blush grew deeper as Kakuzu mumbled to himself. "You're not that warm," he said finally, dropping his hand.
Hidan gaped at the miser for a moment before bending to grab the toodle, as he was now thinking of it, and dashed from the room.
Kakuzu blinked.
"What's his problem?"
"I'M GOING TO TURN THAT POODLE INTO A PUPPET!" Sasori screeched, throwing a Barbie's head at the dog, who yipped and dashed out of the line of fire. The red head growled at it, eyes narrowing dangerously.
"DEIDARA, YOU ARE PAYING FOR MY COLLECTION OF RUINED BARBIE DOLLS!" the red head yelled, twisting around to face the blonde sitting on the bedspread, playing, as usual, with his clay.
Deidara frowned at the poodle. "Danna, can we get rid of him, un?"
That stopped the red head in his tracks. "Why? You love dogs."
"Not this one, un." The blonde stuck his tongue out at the poodle. "He's annoying, un."
Sasori shrugged. "Sure. By the way, where is Tobi?"
"I KEEEEEELED him, un."
"Did you now. Where's Doctor Barbie's head?"
"AWWWW! LOOKIT THE WIDDLE POODLE!" Sakura squealed, crushing the poor thing to her chest. The dog wimpered. "He's so pretty I could eat him right up!"
Ino grinned and scratched the dog's ears. "What a lovely Christmas present..." the blonde sighed, petting the poodle.
"I...I w-wonder who let her h-here..." Hinata stammered, blushing.
"I don't know, and don't care. Now what to name her....how about Sasuna?"
Sakura giggled. "No, no, no, no...Sasuki chan!" she crowd happily, rubbing the poodle's tummy.
"H-how about Naruko?" Hinata got out. The poodle whimpered as the three girls began to argue, Sakura and Ino's eyes blazing, while Hinata looked more determind than usual.
"Sasuna!"
"Sasuki!"
"Naruko...."
"Woof."
Itachi sighed and brushed the edge of his cloak. "Now that Tobi's taken care of, we can go get our partner's Christmas presents."
"Finally, un!"
"This had better be worth all the fucking trouble we went through."
"At least we got rid of Tobi."
Author's Comments: Tobi is now living in Konoha, XD
I wrote this chappi, deleted everything, rewrote it, changed a lot, stared at it for an hour and gave up.
I'm making TWO more chappis after this....WHY do you people always get me to turn my one shots into longer stories?!
