Luckily, I have had time this weekend to write! Yay! So here is chapter 3!
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto.
Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dumb
"Umm, is the edible?" Asura asked innocently as she poked the "food" in front of her.
"Its food. Shut up and eat it." Kisame replied simply. Chey looked at it in disgust.
"Even Asura cooks better than this." Kisame's eyes narrowed.
"I do? Chey-chan's never said that about my cooking!" Asura exclaimed.
"Well, at least you make sure the food is completely dead before you serve it." Chey muttered as she poked the eyeball looking specimen on her plate with her set of chopsticks. "I'd rather starve."
Kisame smiled. "Fine by me. I was kinda hoping it would kill you anyway." Whack. "OW!" Kisame rubbed the red indent on his head, the evil chopstick that gave him the red mark now lying on the table. He looked at Chey. "What the hell was that for?" he growled.
"Oh, so because you got hurt, you automatically blame me?" Chey asked coldly, her hands now crossed on her chest, her eyes bearing into Kisame's soul.
'Daaaamn, she's intimidating. Almost as bad as Itachi.' "You seriously think Tweedle Dumb did it?" Kisame shot back.
"Tweedle Dumb?" both girls asked in unison.
"Yes, and you" Kisame pointed at Chey, "are Tweedle Dee."
"Wow" Asura whispered to Chey, "who'd a thought that fish face actually had creativity?" Both girls giggled. Kisame reached for his kunai holster.
"Why you…" Whiz. A kunai landed on the table close to Kisame.
"Kisame, we do not kill them, yet." Itachi said pointedly from the corner where he had been standing watching this ordeal work out. "Leader wants to talk to them."
Chey and Asura turned. "Leader?"
"He's the only reason you're here, yeah." A voice answered from the kitchen doorway. The "girl" they had learned was in fact, a man, named Deidara. 'But Itachi is being awfully protective of them...'
Deidara's partner appeared in the doorway behind him. "These are the two causing me such a headache? How annoying." He was slim with red hair, and slightly taller than Deidara.
"We get that a lot." Asura smiled. "Giving people headaches. It's one of our best defensive strategies." The three Akatsuki members sweatdropped.
Thwack. A hand swatted Asura on the head. "Owww."
"Way to tell them our defense, idget." Chey said in annoyance. She looked back at her food. "Can we make our own food now? All the drama fish face has caused is making me hungry."
"After you meet with Leader." Itachi budged in. "But now it is time for you to meet with him." He glanced at Asura. "He wishes to meet with you separately."
The girls teardropped. "No! We both go together! We will NOT be separated!" An annoyed Itachi grabbed Asura's wrists tightly and dragged her out of the kitchen.
"Chey!"
"That was quick, yeah." Deidara commented. The other two Akatuski members nodded their heads. Chey sighed.
'I know she'll be alright...or at least I hope so. I have to find an escape plan!'

-With Asura-
"Get up."
"No."
"Get up."
"Bite me."
"Get up."
"If you don't put me back with Chey, I'm going to hold my breath until I pass out!" Asura puffed out her cheeks, crossing her legs on the hallway floor she was currently sitting on.
"Fine, I'll wait until you pass out, and then drag you to Leader myself."
.
Asura's cheeks turned blue. Itachi waited patiently. Tears welled up in Asura's eyes before...
"WHEW!" she gasped in air, now filling her lungs with the precious substance keeping her alive.
"Get up." Itachi continued. Asura shook her head in defiance. Itachi grabbed her wrists, pulling her upright and down the hallway.
"Okay, okay, okay! Let go! You're hurting me!" Asura whined. Itachi let go.
"Will you come now?"
Asura nodded. "Follow me."
Asura stuck her tongue out behind his back.
"I saw that."
'Damn.' she thought and continued following Itachi down the darkened hallway leading to a down a flight of steps to a mysterious door. She took a step back. Itachi knocked on the door silently.
"Come in." a voice answered. Asura gulped as Itachi opened the door.
"Nu huh, I don't go into creepy doors with only a voice inside them!"
With an "Eip!" from Asura, Itachi pulled her into Leader's mysterious office.
XXXXXXX With Chey XXXXXXX
"...And then when I was 8 years old Asura and I met in an orphanage. Those were great times. Granny didn't think so but we had so much fun...and then when we were 10 we got so hyped up on pixie sticks...and when we were 11..."
"QUIET. I CANT TAKE IT ANYMORE."
Chey smiled. "Well if you would let me go outside by myself you wouldn't have a problem."
Kisame had been listening to Chey l rant about random stories in her life for the past hour. After about 10 minutes into her spiel Deidara and Sasori had left leaving Kisame all alone to watch her by himself. He desperately needed some aspirin.
Kisame groaned. "You're giving me a flipping headache..." And then with an exasperated sigh, 'Where the hell is Itachi? He should be back with the other kunoichi by now...'
Chey ignored him. "The wheels on the bus go round and round, round and round, round and round…" Thwack. Kisame's fist connected with Chey's head.
"What the hell was that for?" Chey demanded.
"That's for the flipping headache." Kisame grumbled.
"Why you..." Chey sweatdropped. "I...I...I have to go to the bathroom!"
"Why didn't you go before?" Kisame yelled.
"Like I know where the bathroom is!" Chey countered.
Kisame groaned while circling his forehead lightly. "Ugh, come with me...if you pee on that chair I'm gonna be pissed."
Chey batted her eyelashes. 'Oops.'
Kisame led her out of the kitchen into the long dark hallway to the last door on the left. "Make it snappy. Leader will want to see you soon."
"Meh, meh, meh, isn't someone impatient?" Chey mocked.
"Kunoichi..." Slam. The door was closed in front of Kisame in a flash.
'Now for my escape...' Chey thought cleverly. She opened the bathroom window fully and hopped onto the window sill. She glanced down to assess her situation. 'Only one floor,' she thought, 'shouldn't be that bad...' and she jumped, landing on her feet gracefully.
"YES! Sweet freedom!" Chey took a victory step towards the surrounding woods when...Itachi stood in front of her.
"You were trying to escape, weren't you?"
"Haha? "Chey laughed nervously, "No, actually I was trying to test gravity. Guess what? It still works." Itachi closed his eyes in annoyance.
"Come with me."
"Like hell!" Chey protested.
"Come with me or your friend will have dire consequences." Itach threatened and stepped back into the base.
'Damn, he got me there.'
XXXXXXXXXXXX
"I do not know why they are silent. Usually we cannot get these girls to shut up." Itachi apologized to uhhh "Leader", or the man behind the curtain.
"We DO have names you now! Not just girls!" Asura snapped.
After Itachi brought Chey in to meet with Leader, Asura still hadn't talked for all that time and no amount of bribing was helping either. A new record for Asura.
Leader sighed. "You know, if you don't talk, I'll have to kill you."
The girls looked at each other. "You got us then."
"What do you want to know?" Chey asked suspiciously.
"Anything I already don't know. I've been watching you two for the past few years. Very impressive from what I've seen." Leader mused.
"What all has he seen?" Asura whispered.
"I have no idea, but I hope not..." The girls shivered. Why was Leader being such a creeper?
"You two are from the Hidden Leaf Village, and have lived there all your lives. You both met in an orphanage where you were raised for different scenarios and became best friends, adopting yourselves as "sisters." You both completed the Chunin exam and passed it with extreme skill, and were working on your Junin exam when you became criminals. Am I correct?"
"Damn, he's good." Chey whispered back to Asura. Asura only nodded. "Uh huh."
"Leader knows everything." Itachi muttered.
"Oh yeah? What song did Chey sing me for my birthday?" Asura asked the man behind the curtain.
"Happy Birthday." he answered.
'Damn. He is good.'
"I'm surprised you haven't shown us your true form." Leader continued. He looked at Chey. "Will you do us the honors?"
Chey sighed. "Finally, I was getting to feel uncomfortable." Chey made a hand sign and held it over her head. "Cat demon..."
Two stubs grew out of Chey's head, cat ears. A tail grew from her behind, and a moon symbol appeared on her forehead.
"Wow, you went a whole 24 hours in human form." Asura said surprised.
"I know. It sucked." Chey whined.
'Cat demon?' Itachi inquired raising an eyebrow. He looked through the curtain catching Leaders gaze. 'Shouldn't we..?'
"She's different. Not Jinchuriki." Leader mused answering Itachi's thought. 'But how interesting...'
"Now I would like to offer you two ladies the chance of a lifetime." Itachi raised his eyebrow again. 'Oh no, Leader...'
"Would you like to become members of the Akatsuki?"
Chey and Asura looked suspiciously over at the curtain. "What's in it for us?"
"Well for one, you'll get to live." Leader answered. "However, I find that you two will be a nice asset to our goal."
Chey looked at Asura. Asura looked at Chey. "Well...YOU BET!" both girls squealed.
"In that case, Asura Domotachi, Chey Vodalaski, welcome to the Akatsuki."
"YAY!"
Itachi looked at Leader in bewilderment. 'These are the new members he has chosen? Perhaps the next spot will be filled with someone less annoying…'
