The ideas! They… CAME! Again, a short chapter, but not all that many ideas came so… live with it.
Chapter 3- Infiltration
Deidara crouched amongst some convenient bushes in the pitch-blackness. Unfortunately he had an Uchiha who had been irritated to the point of madness right next to him.
"We must move quickly and above all, quietly!" Itachi hissed as he stood and dragged Deidara over the walls of Konoha.
Then he was dragged over the rooftops of Konoha. Then finally Deidara found himself atop the center building of the old Uchiha complex.
Itachi dropped from the roof onto a nearby windowsill. He peered inside and saw that no one had moved in. The house had actually remained empty since Sasuke had left Konoha.
Itachi hit the window in exactly the right place and it sprang upwards. "Hurry up!" he whispered as he entered the house.
Deidara swung through the window after him, grumbling. The amount of times he used the words 'troublesome' and 'annoying'… he could have successfully henged into Shikamaru.
In fact the same thought occurred to the King of Paranoia, a.k.a. Itachi. "The game's up Nara!" He proclaimed, pushing Deidara back out of the window.
"Un! What the hell?" He demanded as he used chakra in his feet to grip the wall before he hit the ground. He slowly began to climb back up.
"Your speech pattern resembled that of Nara Shikamaru. I had to make sure it was really you." Itachi replied simply.
Deidara rolled his eyes and swung through the window. But right before he landed, he was grabbed around the middle and blindfolded.
"Oi! What're you doing yeah?" Deidara demanded, not so quietly.
"It's time for your inside voice. Oh, and you can't know the secrets of my clan. Undoubtedly you'd use them to destroy me." He replied in a surprisingly civil tone… right in Deidara's ear.
He violently jumped sideways in shock, but he was once again grabbed around the middle. This time his arm was pinned as well.
"Don't think I'm going to let you blow anything up." Itachi warned as he dragged Deidara from the room they were in and into another.
Itachi lifted a tatami mat and made his way down the now revealed hidden staircase.
Deidara, who was oblivious to all of this, suddenly felt his head hit something hard, pointy and wooden. He kicked reflexively and his shin somehow came into contact with Itachi's calf.
Itachi hissed in response and Deidara felt a hand close around his throat. "I'm sorry!" he exclaimed, not exactly meaning it. "Reflex!"
"Quiet!" Itachi demanded. Deidara felt the hand move from his throat as soon as he stopped making noise.
Soon after this Deidara could hear the sound of shuffling papers. He guessed Itachi was looking through the scrolls.
Deidara tapped out a rhythm with his foot on what sounded like a stone flooring as he waited. He needed something to entertain himself.
After all, this monotonous activity of waiting blindfolded was not fleeting or artful in the least. Therefore it was boring!
"I thought I told you… to… be…quiet!" Itachi grumbled. He was especially annoyed because he couldn't found what he was looking for.
"I haven't even spoken! Apart from that…"
Itachi stuck two fingers under the corner of Deidara's jaw. This was just one of the many pressure points he could reach.
"Owowowow…" Deidara whined. He finally got the hint and stopped tapping his foot.
"Maybe there's another secret room…" Itachi thought outloud. He dropped Deidara and began his epic search.
Not expecting this, Deidara landed on his butt… painfully. He sighed and attempted to lie down, even if the floor wasn't a very comfortable place to sleep.
But of course his head hit a random stone, which just so happened to be there. "Even the room's against me!" he complained.
Maybe if he pissed off Itachi enough, he would take him back to the base… maybe he'd just get killed… Either way, Deidara wouldn't be bored anymore.
He picked up a rock and threw it where he guessed Itachi would be. The clunk that came afterwards told him he'd missed. But the quick intake of air told him he'd either broken something or got him with the rebound.
He wondered what would come next. Death or injury?
"Um, Itachi? What happened? Un?" He asked as quietly as possible.
Deidara suddenly felt two fingers slide under his blindfold. The next thing he knew, he could see... a big hole where the rock had hit.
Itachi waved a scroll across his line of sight. "Found it."
On Earth it was now the time of the cavemen. Women didn't exist then you know? They can't have, I mean, take a look at the word. Cavemen.
Two awfully familiar men were arguing in grunts. One had black hair reminiscent of a duck's… and the other had uberly messy blonde hair.
Suddenly, the one we know as Lee crawled past on his face. Wait! That guy can dimension/time travel?
Oh, my bad, that's his ancestor. I guess some things never change…
Have the race of Gais and Lees already evolved so far there is no possible improvement that can be made? Or have their modern selves stupidly not changed all this time?
What a mystery! … Sorry… Getting carried away again. Hope you enjoyed it. Feed back is greatly appreciated.
