last time; " AKATSUKI ARE AFTER ME! PLEASE LET ME THROUGH!"
" We'd need to see some identification."
" WE DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THIS! AKATSUKI'S RIGHT BEHIND ME!
I'LL TELL YOU EVERYTHING, JUST ALERT YOUR ANBU!"
I dropped to my knees crying.
I glared at the guards, my vision completely hazed.
Her face was everywhere, racing through my thoughts as my life flashed before me.
The one thing I wanted more than anything right now... to hug her and cry in her arms... Mommy...
Story Resumes: I pressed down the keys on the electric piano in the living room.
The mid-day sun shinned through the open window, the light summer breeze blowing gently at the white lace curtains. My voice rang out.
" Suddenly I know I'm not sleeping...Hello..."
More words, more piano keys, and my mother. She came into the room suddenly surprising me.
She sat down beside me on the leather piano seat and placed a comforting hand on my shoulder.
" That's my good girl. You're so talented." Her smile was as perfect and warm as one might imagine.
I twore me inside. My stomach tightenned so much I wanted to vomit. I missed her so much. I couldn't believe it.
As a tear rolled down my cheek, I noticed there was still my voice singing away though my lips were unmoving.
"... I'm still here... All that's left of yesterday..."
I sprang out of slumber, my heart still beating as rapidly as before. A single tear strolled down my cheek. My surroundings had changed from the open grassy plain before the leaf village gates, to concrete walls.
I breathed in heavily as I picked myself off of the white bedsheets. I tried to inhale, but it proved to be harder than I expected. My heart felt like it had swelled into my throat, pouding viciously as if it were struggling to beat with life. I sucked in as much of the earthy smelling air as possible. The air smelled like damp soil, and it only made my stomach churn over and over again.
My head spun about rapidly, my diziness and sick feelings growing by the second. A familiar lazy voice sounded from my left.
" Well, well... You're up a little earlier than I expected."
I raised my eyebrow, getting more pissed off by the second. 'Damn these fucking kids for kidnapping me...'
The more bitter thoughts that I had, the more my head seemed to spin. I dropped the look of attitude, though as I spoke it seemed that my voice hadn't done the same.
"Mind telling me why the hell you kidnapped my sorry ass?"
I massaged my temples briefly before turning to my left to see the red head sitting at a wooden desk.
He appeared to be working on what I could make out to be a puppet. I shot a searing gaze at his back, and in turn he twisted his torso, his eyes meeting mine, locking gazes for a moment. His face bore and amused look.
He could easily tell that I was uneasy in my seat and his bored stare let sick amusement seep around his features.
"You'll find out soon enough. Just sit tight... oh and one more thing... try not to do anything rash..." He gave me a last amused look and a curt chuckle, then turned back to his puppet work.I wasn't amused at all, but clearly he found my current position funny. Hell, I'll bet on the inside he was laughing his fucking ass off at me. 'Fucking bastard! I'd kick his ass, if only I had my weapons.' Another dizzy spell shot through me and overwhelmed my nervous system for a few seconds. I trembled from the after math of the poison. I clutched my head as another massive sharp pain thrashed its way through my brain.
" Damn... what kinda poison was that?"
My vision slipped in and out of focus, and I squinted repeatedly trying to see straight. I waited for his reply once again, though he didn't turn around to face me this time.
" A poison of my own creation." His tone was lazy, yet had an undertone suggesting how proud he was of making his own toxins. Perhaps it wasn't even just the fact that he could formulate such a powerful poison, but the fact that he made all of his deadly creations. Who knows, and I mean... really... who cares?
"So, if you're not going to tell me why I'm here, can you atleast tell me who you are, and why you and that effeminite blond wear those weird ridiculous cloaks?"
The door to the room openned as I spoke, and an angry male voice, deeper than the red head's spoke out.
" HEY! WHO THE HELL ARE YOU CALLING EFFEMINITE,...UN?!"
I turned around to see the blond right up in my face, clearly pissed at the insult.
" Chill Blondie... I'm just tellin' it like it is." I stated raising an eyebrow at the young man who was now completely red in the face. His glare seared into me like thousands of red-hot knives. I lowered my eyebrow but returned his look of scorn with a calm collected look. I decided to give it up. 'Until I understand my purpose here it'd be stupid for me to go and get my ass killed by one of them, especially this psycho blond' I thought turning my gaze to the red-head who laughed at my insults to the blond.
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU LAUGHING AT SASORI-DANNA, HMM?!" The blond was still angry, a crazed comical look peeking over his face.I looked blankly between the two, my eyes switching every couple blinks from one to the other.
" As the brat there beside you said, I'm Sasori. The brat's Deidara. Once you meet with Leader-sama you'll understand everything, as well as learn the names of all of the other members. Oh, right, and be sure to address all members of Akatsuki as senpai or sama, unless otherwise instructed... Deidara will be taking you to meet with him shortly." Deidara wrinkled his nose in disgust.
" HEY! WHY THE HELL DO I HAVE TO TAKE HER, HMM?" the blond said raising his voice again.
" Because I said so. Now help her up." Sasori had turned back to his craftsman ship -or so I would have called it anyway...
-completely ignoring Deidara's protests.
" I can get up myself, just take me to see this 'leader-sama' of yours." I couldn't help but stick an underlayer of sarcasm as I addressed their leader. It wouldn't have been 'me' otherwise. I had this natural tendancy, or need even, to push people's buttons.
It'd be interesting to see how far I could push a bunch of S-Class criminals. ' Good luck boys, and have fun...' No matter what purpose they had for me here, I was going to make it miserable for each and everyone of them. Lets see how far I can push them before they kill me. I got up without too much difficulty and tied my hair up with a hair tie that had somehow still remained around my wrist even after all the hell I went through trying to escape these crazy motherfuckers.
" Oh another thing, Sasori-senpai..." He turned to me, once again ignoring the blond who continued to glare and pout at his higher-up. I chose to use senpai as my respecting term, seing as senpai -for me anyway- signified having a higher up, who was more experienced that you. Sama on the other hand had this air importance that I loathed to say when addressing someone who didn't deserve it. So senpai it was.
'Oh god... I have to call the dumb blond that don't I? ...Aww man this blows!'
"... my stuff? I know you brought it with you, but where is-"
"-How the hell do you know we brought your stuff with us, ...hmm? You ditched, running like a little girl while Sasori-danna grabbed it all, ...yeah."
'Stupid blond interrupting me. Gahh!'
" I used my kekkei genkai... duh! Some S-Class criminal you are! You don't even know the abilities of the person you're kidnapping?!" I turned to Sasori in disbelief. "Is this kid for real?" I asked mockingly, pointing over my shoulder to the blond. Sasori gave an amused look, while Deidara looked like he was on the verge of having a tantrum.
" Is he your newest member or what? Hard to believe he's a member at all, considering how bloody effeminite he is." Sasori let out a mocking laugh, still a smirk of amusement plastered over his flawless features. If I didn't know any better, I'd say it was all fake. His skin was unnaturally perfect. But what's it to me anyway?
I listenned to his reply to my many Deidara-insults, or questions, whichever you'd wanna call them.
" No... Hidan is our newest member. Deidara here, is our second newest member. He's been here however, for a while."
( Is that right? Isn't Deidara the newest member before Hidan? I know Tobi is the newest since Hidan, after Sasori dies ofcourse.
Message me if I'm wrong please :)
" Is that so? Well... brats will be brats I guess, though I suppose it doesn't help that the kid's blond..." I said peering at Deidara through the corners of my eyes. Again he sprang one of those pissed off comical looks -that often made anime characters look constipated- my way.
" WHO THE HELL ARE YOU CALLING A KID, ...HMM?! I'M 21 FRICKEN' YEARS OLD!! I'M OLDER THAN YOU, ...UN!!!" He was still red in the face, and the more I thought about it, the more cute it became. 'Yes, Yes. Aww look at the cute little blond girl.
She's so cute having her little 'four-year-old's' tantrum. God, I can be sarcastic bitch'
" Ohh... so you did do some of your homework on me, did you? Well, my age didn't help you much in avoiding my bunshins now did it?" I said testily.
" WHY YOU" Not being able to anything he turned to his higher-up"... Sasori-danna..." He clenched his fists, on the verge of another outburst.
"Why don't you go take Ishikawa-san to see Leader-sama now?" Sasori said becoming annoyed with the blond's constant yelling.
" Screw her! I say you just end things right now and turn her into one of your human puppets. She'd be more useful that-" Sasori interrupted the blond, loosing his patience again. He clearly didn't like waiting for Deidara to comply with his orders.
"-Why don't you take her before I turn YOU into a puppet. Go. NOW!" Sasori's tone was surprisingly calm sounding despite his annoyance with him.
Deidara gulped, and said little else aside from a nervous,
" H-Hai!" He grabbed me by the wrist and hauled me out of the room. It seemed he was in such a hurry to leave the room, that he pulled a little extra hard, literally flinging me out the door. I could feel my arm tighten at the socket, my limbs creaking in protest.
The door shut abruptly, and I stumbled into the dark hallway. The earthen smell was even stronger out here. Damn. 'Where the hell is this place built?'
I rubbed my shouder with a light pressure massage, trying to shake off the pain of his hand jerking my arm forward.
"Teme!" I mumbled. And I with good reason. He was a bastard, and even if he was older by two years, he still did act like a brat, especially in defeat. He glared at me turning around, and stopping briefly. I glared right back. I noted that he had some sort of scope thing positionned over his left eye. It was kind of hard to see before, due to the thick mass of golden bangs he had hanging over it. He turned back pulling me faster, tightenning his grip. He probably smirked when he heard me grumble from the strain on my wrist, the leather of his glove twisting burns in my skin. I would have made an appology, but I guess that if this was the only punishment he could bestow on me for making fun of him, then I had more to relish for making fun of him, than he did for hurting my wrist. Besides, so far it seemed like Sasori thought that I was somewhat okay... or maybe it was just because I was making fun of his partner.
'Okay... Shit!' His grip around my wrist was really tight, almost like a vice, strangling the life out of my hand. It was really starting to hurt,
not to mention the fact that it was going numb. I cursed myself for being such a bloody pussy, especially at a time like this. I stumbled to keep up with him, as he nearly dragged me down the torch-lit halls of the apparant underground lair. It was an awkward mix of cool earthen atmosphere with the blazing heat of the flaming torches as we passed. My wrist was throbbing. 'Damn... maybe I should appologize to him...
Naww. He probably wouldn't let go if I begged him to. Besides... I can deal with a little pain right? I was probably going to be killed by one
of them eventually, so what did this matter?'
We must have passed 15 different doors. It seemed the deeper we went, the more the pressure in the atmosphere grew, and it tooks it's tole on my ears,
which popped and squeeked under the strain. That could only mean we were going deeper underground, unless they'd built this thing in a mountain.
Hey, it's not like it'd be hard with Deidara's explosive techniques... Okay...on second thought, now that I think about the mess and the dangers that would
present with blowing a mountain up, I'm beginning to think it IS an underground lair after all.
Deidara finally stopped in front of one. It wasn't any different from all of the other doors down here, but then again why would the Leader of an evil organisation have a different door in an underground lair? This wasn't some big cheesy spy movie after all. I watched as he placed his other gloved hand to the door and gave a backhanded double knock. A faintly muffled voice sounded from behind the door, or atleast to Deidara it might have sounded muffled. My accute hearing picked up every ounce of his tone. It was a fairly deep, deeper than Deidara's for sure, and sounded tougher, ...and less like a sleeze. No offence Deidara...cough
Taking his free hand, he seized the bronze-coloured doorhandle, and twisted it. There was a soft click, and he openned it gently, while practically throwing me dead center in the room, though a lot less violently than before. The little bitch probably just didn't want to make a bad impression infront of the leader, though I'm sure it didn't make that much of a difference.
" Ass hole..." I growled angrily. The pain in my wrist shot through me like a bullet. My hand had gone numb up until he had released me. I forgot he was even holding my wrist to begin with... 'You're going to regret it Blondie, so help me god, you WILL regret it!' I stored the thought away for later.
I stumbled into the new space. I didn't make a sound this time, seeing as I was kind of growing used to it thanks to Blondie over there. A woman walked out of the room soon after I steadied myself. She had light blue hair and an interesting flower pinned along side the bun she wore. She wore a lot of dark makeup, typically eyeshadow, and she had a labret piercing, a silver stud protruding below her bottom lip. She eyed me as she exited the leader's dark quarters. She too wore an Akatsuki cloak. 'Well that makes for two girls in Akatsuki' I thought mockingly, my mind drifting to my current escort. 'Damn is it ever easy to make fun of that kid. I almost feel sorry for him. But then... I mean... I guess that when it comes down to it, I really do.' I myself have had my share of teasing over the years. I was as cute a button as a baby, but then I was hardly that growing up. Everyone had made fun of me all of my life. I often had no friends. I had hated everyone so much for it, and was down on myself all the time. I ended up going insane from it, and one day I took a kunai to my face.
Call me crazy, but I did. I coudn't stand it anymore. If I was really that ugly then that was fine. I'll just make it so that I'm so ugly that they'll be to scared to come near me. I had disfigured my face to the point where that indeed was the case. But all of the adults around me had come near me asking what had caused such wounds. I never answered them, but then my mom had died in an enemy attack. My mom had never been a ninja, seeing as how she hated fighting. That in the end had caused her death. Sometimes I thought it had been me. That I had caused her death. I was so ugly that I made her go away. But wasn't that what I wanted? Didn't I want to make myself so ugly that people would go away? In the midst of my despair, I had met a man. He had looked down on my despair with a smile, and offered me solace and peace of mind, in exchange for my utmost loyalty. It was like having a father. No matter what he thought of me, he had taken care of me, brought me up to my feet, and raised me into a strong willed and powerful individual.
I had remained with him until I was 13, where I had moved on to take the chunin exams, and later the jounin exams. I had come so far, and with hardly seeing my sensei afterward. But I remainned greatful to him. He even had his deciple, Kabuto, heal the would-be permanently damaging effects of what I had done. Orochimaru had told me that once a man had told him that he was the child of a demon, but that after moping about it, he took the advantage of it, and fuelled himself with others insults, using the influence of others' animosity towards him and using to get stronger, then proving them to be inferior. While now, it seems like an angered act of vengeance to all those who have been against him, at the time, and sometimes even still, it seemed like a hell of a way to gauge oneself. So I strived forward to be just like him in that way. He had given me the power and the will to be different and accept it. Though I was much less filled with malice, and spite, and without a passionate loathing towards Konohagakure, I took his influence and did many great things with it. I had made friends, and formed bonds that I cherished with others. Throughout the years, my friends, all jounin, chunin, and genin alike, died off in battle. I was the only one who somehow remained alive. I didn't quite understand it, though I was kind of a better ninja than them, but I don't wanna sound high on myself. They all came from loving families and had lives that were going well for them. They were all smart and talented individuals, yet they had died painful and terrible deaths. I hadn't. I had no one other than them, but I remainned alive. I'm sure that all of their parents had cursed me atleast once. Them losing their child over no one losing me. I mean, friends would get over it right? A parent would mourn their child forever. Wasn't that right? It was awful to think about, but, heh, well... it was true. I'd watched all those who mattered to me the most fade. As for me? I was just some punk-ass kid who cut a deal with death one too many times. And now I was here.
Getting back to the blue haired chick... Akatsuki didn't exactly seem like a
"girl-friendly" organisation. I wonder...'Is she the leader's girlfriend or something?' The door shut behind her, and I turned my attention to the current
situation; 'Trying to get the Leader of Akatsuki to NOT kill me.'
There was a desk towards the back wall of the room. Neat files of whatever the leader had were stacked up metal rack to his right. There was a black chair
where he sat. He was a young man, no older than 27 (or so I should think), with vibrant coloured hair. He had several piercings all over.
' DEAR SWEET JESUS...' I thought as he removed his hands away from his face. I mean, yeah I had several ear piercings, and two eyebrow piercings
( HLC: Did I mention the eyebrow piercings before? Oo? I don't think I did... sorry peeps) but god damn! I can only imagine how much his must have hurt.
He had snake bites ( two piercings under his bottom lip close enough together so that it looks like a snake bite) and three bars through the bridge of his frickin'
nose for Pete's sake! I mean, hell, they were pretty damn bad-ass, but still... OWWW!! How much pain this guy could take, I didn't know, but if it was as much
as I thought, I REALLY didn't want to learn where else that guy was pierced. I kept a straight face and diverted my thoughts away from the many things I
considered painful to be his possible pleasure. I had to admit though. Aside from his weird swirly eyes, he was pretty freakin' hot! He smirked at me.
" You had nothing but ninjutsu to deffend you, and you avoided a skilled bomber, and a deadly puppet master with just kagebunshin? I must say, that's pretty
impressive." He paused waiting for any comments I might have had. I figured that if I can play friendly with him, he might let me off a little easier.
'Just act sinister' I told myself.
" Well..." I shrugged. " I had two S-Class criminals tailing my ass. I just couldn't let them get me that easily. Though if it makes you feel any better about their
abilities, they were very tough to get by." I crossed my arms, shifting my weight to my right leg. I grinned darkly at him." Sneeky even." He gave an amused
chuckle at my dark sarcasm.
" So, you're no doubt wondering why you've been brought to such a dismal place?" I nodded my head once assuringly. He then continued. " Well, Reika-chan,"
'What the fuck is he using a familiar title for? I clearly don't know him, so why? Does he plan on turning my into his little pet or something?' I thought bitterly. I brightenned up, my bitterness changing to a dark humour. Yes children, that's how it works in order for me. Bitter to dark humour'Oh well... atleast he's good looking. Being his pet wouldn't be that bad... if that's what he had in mind.' I shuddered at my last thought. ' WAIT! WHAT THE FUCK AM I TALKING ABOUT?!'
"Akatsuki is an organization consisting of 9, and only 9 members. It's filled with exceptionally talented shinobi, of various countries, ranging in age, and ability."
'Yeah, yeah jackass... get the point already.'
" Unfortunately... there isn't a single member here who can cook."
His words caught me a little offguard. How the hell did he know that I...? Maybe the villagers weren't kidding when they said they'd put in a 'good word' for me.
I repeated his words, in a much more 'me' fashion.
" Okaay... so you went through the all the trouble of sending two of your men all the way over to Otogakure, just to kidnapp my sorry ass, and bring it ...wherever
we are, just so I can cook for you and your goons?" He nodded, but I continued as if I didn't understand. "I had two S-Rank criminals bust into my appartment after I finished my shower, chase me and poisonme, setting off explosions in the middle of Otogakure, waking up the entire town, causing a massive ruckus, scaring innocent children, alerting all the Jounin and Jounin elders in my village, all to get my flipping attention?" I was getting more and more pissed off by the second. Had I known his capabilities, and had my weapons, this guy'd be toast. Even being hot wouldn't help this guy against my wicked wrath of sound.
'Why the hell do I keep bringing that up?'
He didn't speak, but more cleared his throat.
" I mean, DUDE! C'MON! You could've atleast sent a fake letter telling me I've been offered a job as a chef somewhere, then dropped the bomb on me. I mean,
did you really have to go through all that bullshit just to have me kidnapped?" He snapped a little, raising his voice.
" Well I didn't count on you using some weird unknown jutsu, disabling them from moving, alerting your village, then running all the way to Konohagakure for
help!" ' Whoops...I think I pissed him off... so much for 'Trying to get the Leader of Akatsuki to NOT kill me' I thought with my usual sarcasm.
" Well, no offence, but that'd be your fault for not counting on a counter attack like that, and also for not doing your homework properly on your 'kindappee'.
No wonder Blondie out there didn't know shit." I gave him a stern look.
" Look, seeing as you brought me all the bloody way out here, I'll work for you. I did want an excuse to get out of that village anyway, so I won't argue any further, but if I'm to stay here, then I have a few conditions."
" You're in no position to be making demands here, Princess." I could catch a slightly more angered tone in the underlayers of his breath, but he still kept most
of his composure.'Princess? Who the hell do you think you're talking to here, jackass?'
" Well then I guess you have no cook. Trust me, if you think that there's nothing I can do to blast my way out of here, just because your lackeys got me while
I was asking Konoha for help, then think again. You are obviously unaware of my abilities if you couldn't predict a simple counter attack. I'm a Jounin, not stupid!"
'That was the biggest fucking bluff I think I've ever told in my life, but I hope it works.'Well actually, it wasn't entirely a bluff. I could probably make it out of there just maybe not as easily as I'd lead on. He stared me down a minute, almost like he could sense me bluffing... or could he? If I could make him doubt
himself, I'd get what I wanted for sure. I mean, if I'm going to be cooking for a bunch of cloaked crooks with bad hair-do's than I should at least try to milk them
for whatever I could, you know?
I kept my gaze dead serious, blocking out all ways for him to break through and see to the parts of my story that were nothing more that mere talk. Finally after
what seemed like much thought, he gave a hesitant reply.
" Fine. Set your conditions, but I'll decide which one's to grant you." His gaze narrowed and met mine forcefully. It's was as if he was still trying to catch a bluff in
my words or actions.
"First; I cook what I want. No one argues, or tells me otherwise, unless I specifically ask for their input."
" Ah, well then I have a condition to add over top of that." I narrowed my gaze as well, annoyed at his interruption. How convienent. The ass hole was
probably going to override my own demands with more of his. Sneeky bastard. 'Note to self: Aquire friendship with Akatsuki Leader, then proceed to kick his ass.'He continued. " You are required to prepare 3 meals a day. Clean after yourself, and all kitchen and eating areas."
"Hnn...Fine. Second; Your organization supplies all of the food, utensils, and cleaning agents I need for doing that."
" Hnn...very well. But I have another condition." 'YOU BASTARD!' " You are responsible for going into town and buying all of the supplies you need"
'Okay ... not so bad.'
" Alright. Third; I get my own room, that no one is to enter without permission." I smirked. 'Lets see how you handle that one you jackass!' He smirked back.
He knew exactly what I was doing and by the expression on his face, he seemed just as amused as I was.
" I accounted for that already. Your room is being prepared. " 'SCORE! FUCKING AWESOME! NO SHARING ROOMS FOR ME!' "Everyone except me, will not be allowed to enter your quarters without permission," he continued. That wiped the smirk clean off my face. The light in the room, was too dim for
him to see, which was a good thing on account of me actually blushing there for a second, before the colour in my face completely washed out. ' Great! Just
fucking great! I'm going to RAPED in my fucking sleep! Just peachy!' The look in his eye turned even more sinister, which just about confirmed my rape
suspicions. 'God help me.' After a moment I continued eyeing the bastard suspiciously.
" Foouurthh;" the word slurred out slowly as I continued eyeing him, his smirk still plastered on his face. " None of the Akatsuki members are to treat or act ill
towards me."
" Ahh, that I cannot promise. It seems that Deidara, out there, bears some ill will against you already. However I will let them know." There was a smirk still
smoothed across his pierced lips. 'I guess that's a no then... unless... is he still thinking about..? Agghh! Sick bastard!'
" Any more conditions Reika-chan?" His tone was mocking as hell when he said my name. It really did make me sound like his pet. 'Damn him.'
" Not at the moment." I said reluctantly. I tried hard to think, but I mean, that's all I'd be able to get away with now anyway. I'd just have to milk my way
along. Lets just hope I didn't actually run into any 'mid-night rape issues'. He then went on, saying something about how he was leaving up to Deidara-kun to
introduce me to the other members of Akatsuki. ' Yeah... you were right for sure Sasori-senpai! Leader is TOTALLY going to tell me the names of all the
members! You fucking liar! I bet he knew that he wouldn't too... Well, you know what? Fuck you Pinocchio! I hope your dick shrinks for every inch your nose sprouts.'
" So then tell me, how do you plan on monitoring me if I'm going out to buy supplies myself? I could easily give the other memebers the slip while I'm in town."
" But you wouldn't, would you?"
" No, but 'what if'? You didn't prepare for that did you?" I gave a small, and rather lazy smirk. " Whatever. If you're going to leave it up to that, then I won't
question you anymore today." I dismissed myself having no further need to speak with him. He smirked again, though it hardly seemed as sinister. He spoke,
watching me leave. I turned around one last time to face him as I listenned.
" By the way Princess..." Again with the Princess... 'sigh'
" Yes, Leader-sama?" Addressing him with the respected term seemed to boost his ego a bit, and his softened smirk went from mild, right back to sinister,
infact even moreso than before.
" Your room won't be finished for another week or so." I rolled my eyes, and groaned mentally. " So until it's completed, you're going to have to share a
room with Deidara-kun." I stopped dead for a second, then turned on my heel to face him.
" Excuse my language but, ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?" My tone went from normal to ticked. Man, this guy had a real nice tendancy of rubbing people
the wrong way!
" Well, if you don't like it, I can always let you bunk with me, in my room." That sick S.O.B.! So that's where the suddenly devious look came from. I guess
I wasn't the only one with my mind in the gutter.'
I raised my eyebrow menacingly, and flaunted a slight smirk, leading on that I was actually more amused by his sudden 'bright idea', than appauled by it.
"You'd like that wouldn't you?" I asked.
" Would I ask otherwise?" His smirk and voice had both turned seductive. ' I wonder if that's the look he has when he gets his piercings done. Okay I REALLY need to stop thinking of ways for him to pleasure himself!'
" Well in that case..." I matched his seductive look with one of my own, and with natural skill.
'Ahh the smirking game... the little sherrade of menace every evil leader plays with those he wishes to seduce. A never ending game of ''who can skin the cat and flaunt it better''. And how could I resist such a tempting offer?' The look played upon his face appeared to give the impression that he was pleased. I dropped the look, my face molding into a peeved expression, my tone apathetic, though annoyed. "I'm bunking with Blondie!" His smirk dropped into a frown instantly. And I slipped him a taunting smirk to even out the atmosphere. After all, it was only right. Poor atmosphere. It was probably feeling lonely
for the two and a half seconds without Leader-sama's deviousness. Great... now I'm sympathizing with the atmosphere. Next it'll be DEIDARA, or something
ELSE completely obscene. And yes, Deidara is now an effeminite some'thing', not an effeminite some'one'. Okay, WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH ME? I mean, is it the air in the lair that is making me go insane, or is it the people? Because I swear to god I was saner in the two seconds before I stepped into this office.
I turned again and this time walked right out the door. Before it was half way closed, Leader-sama called out to me.
" Well, you can't blame me for trying!" I waved my hand behind me signaling my departure, and also that I didn't really care.
" Yeah, yeah! Keep Talkin'... " The door shut as my words finished. I tuned in my hearing with my chakra, to see if he said anything else that he didn't want
me to catch. And indeed there was, though I'm sure he would've said it anyway, whether I was listenning or not.
"Well... that went better that expected. She's pretty hot too..." he mumbled quietly to himself.
I couldn't contain myself upon hearing his remark. I let out a short burst of laughter, causing Deidara to look at me as if I were a crack-monkey. Leader-sama
became dead quiet in his office, obviously realzing that I had heard him. ' Too bad sucker... guess you forgot I have accute hearing. Sucks having a sound ninja around doesn't it?' I relished the moment for as long as possible, which wasn't very long seeing as Blondie decided to interrupt my victory by being an
annoying little bitch. It's rather funny infact. I'm savouring having the powers to use specifically for being a bitch, and he was ruining it in a bitchy manner
all his own (or should I say her own).
" What the hell is so damn funny, hmm?" He narrowed his gaze at me annoyed. He had probably heard most of the conversation with Leader-sama, and was
now taking the opportunity to complain to me about it. Oh well. It was a whole 5 minutes of peace anyway, if you call playing hard to get with Leader-sama,
and suffering through his many attempts to land himself a one way ticket into my pants, a moment of peace. I smiled innocently.
" Nothing you need to worry about Blondie." I smirked at his reaction. Going red in the face again, he began telling me off.
" STOP CALLING ME THAT! I HAVE A NAME, UN!" He pouted, crossing his arms. It was awkward. I suddenly felt light hearted, ignoring all that had just
happened. It was probably the cutest thing I had ever seen a 21-year-old do. I shook my head, not only from him being silly, but from the Leader's flirting.
" Right..." I touched a finger to my chin thoughtfully. " I'm supposed to call you by your proper title, aren't I?" His scowl became a straight expression, and he
straightened out standing up, towering over me by several inches.
" Damn right, you're supposed to, un." He lightenned up considerably knowing that I was willing to call him by his respective title now. I shrugged passively.
" Whatever you say... Blondie..." I flashed a devilishly cute smile, and took off running down the hall from the direction we came. Besides... I felt like having
some fun.
" Oh no you don't! HEY GET BACK HERE, UN!" He said as he took off after me. I giggled violently as he began chasing me. The bastard was fast too! I sped up, not yet reaching my full speed. I turned back a moment to look behind me. He as right on my tail. When I turned around one of the doors along the hall swung open. I jumped out of the way, dodging it just in time to avoid a collision. I did a ninja-roll out to left, which hurt from my back wounds, but I'm sure it wasn't anything
compared to what my persuer felt right about now. I caught a glimpse of it in the midst of my ninja roll. Deidara had tried to stop, but collided face-first, flat
into the heavy wooden door, bouncing right back and hitting the cold hard ground. I got up to check if he was okay. I got to his side, but before I could do
much a man with silver hair, slicked back away from his face, and purple-ish eyes peered around the corner. He looked at me while I asked Deidara if he was
okay. Deidara's eyes had turned swirly, his eyelids heavy, and his nose, bleeing like a fountain. I picked up his torso and supported his head to prevent him
from drowning in own blood. Despite what I had decided earlier about being a bitch, I didn't intend on letting him die in such a pathetic way. I mean... how
many idiots have died drowning on their own blood from a nosebleed, not counting the fact that he had gotten one running into a door. And I also had to admit,
he was too cute for me not to help him. 'I am such a fucktard sometimes. First he's an effeminite dumb blond, then a little girl, and now he's cute? Well I guess all those things are what make him cute.' Deidara was still out until the silver haired man, obvioualy another member called out to him.
" Yo, Deidara-chan! You might not wanna run into the door while I'm trying to open it." He gave a smirk. Deidara's eyes shot open up, as he came to. He was
still shaken up. I snickered slightly. ' haha... Deidara-chan... tssshsshsshss... hehehehehee!'
"Wha-a? What the hell happened, un?"
" You chased me down the hall, then ran into this guy's door and bounced back a good three feet. Jeez Blondie, you should be more careful!' I mocked.
" Will you call me by my proper title already, hmm? he demanded scowling, still clutching his nose. He blushed suddenly, but only briefly. What for I hadn't the slightest clue... well then again might be the fact that he's embarassed. I frowned, which then turned into a pout.
" You ruin my fun. Besides, I don't think you should be demanding anything when I'm the one holding you up from falling backwards." He answered that by
blowing me rasberry. The little prick knew how to play like a kid, that's for sure. Though for the record he became more red of embarassment. I set him down
gently, letting him support himself. He sat up straight, making faces, obviously in pain.
"So who's the cutey-pie, Deidara-chan?" the silver-haired man asked suddenly. He had moved from behind the door to around it, shutting it behind him. I blushed
slightly at the remark. I brushed a glance up at him, and turned it back to Deidara. "Is this the new cook everyone was talking about?" he questionned again.
" Yeah, Hidan, meet 'the Sound bitch'," he said with reference to my country. I brushed another glance towards Hidan and then back at Deidara.
" Okay, look Blondie. If you're going blow rasberries and name call like a three-year-old, that's all fine and great, but just remember that you're the only one who
looks stupid in the end." I said matter of factly. "Piece of advice; grow up and get a life," I said with the same sympathetic tone of voice as a therapist might have.
" What, un? 'Sound bitch' is a fitting title for you!" Deidara said smirking evily behind his fingers. He was obviously trying to make up for earlier, and was really failing terribly. I kept my tone of voice at a level that made me appear uninterested, and like I could easily kick his ass in a name-calling scrap.
" Okay, two can play at that game, Mr. Jackass Mc Cockbite, and another piece of advice; get some better insults, cuz' you're putting me to sleep." Hidan laughed
amused by my attitude.
Deidara gave me an angry look, and turned away addressing Hidan again.
" Okay, she just got down-graded. Now she's simply bitch, and a big one at that. Feel free to call her that any time! Leader-sama's permission." Hidan seemed confused by the current converstation. I turned to Hidan politely, and I began sweetly,
" It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance Hidan-senpai. My name is Reika Ishikawa, and I am indeed your new chef. I don't recall Leader-sama ever saying
anything along those lines, but I suppose you should believe what you like." I said turning my fake sweet smile upon Deidara, that had an underlayer of ' you
are the biggest prick I have ever met in my life and you will pay severely for being that way'. His gaze wavered from mine as he noted the underglare in my
gaze. I turned back to Hidan who had taken my hand gently into his, planting a kiss gently on my hand without removing his eyes from mine. He released my
hand and pinned me with a seductive gaze.
" I assure you, Reika-chan, the pleasure is all mine." I put forth a small smile, as Deidara rolled his eyes. 'sweatdrop' Great... it's like with Leader-sama all over
again! Are all the members of Akatsuki this flirty, or are they all just getting horny because there's a girl around that they have more chances of fucking without having her viciously tear their dicks off? On that note, I thought of that chick I saw before. Considering how the Leader acted towards me, I assuming, or at least I have the right to assume that she isn't his girlfriend... Oo; She couldn't cook for them? I mean, yeah there are some chicks who can't cook, but c'mon! They're probably all just a bunch of lazy fcks. I'm kinda glad I'm sleeping in Deidara's room tonight. It doesn't seem like much, but hey... the way it was looking, I'd need every percent
of reassurance that I wasn't going to get raped in my sleep. So that's two sexual predators in Akatsuki to worry about. Let's just hope that the other 5 that I
haven't met aren't the same.
okay that's where it ends. I stayed up all night trying to write an ending for this and it's almost 8 a.m. I'm effing tired but I have to go to school and pick up my
scheduel and clean my house before my sister gets home, so thank you for reading and i hope you enjoyed it. I know it was long sry ( ...though i suppose when
I post this it'll be much later in the day.)
