Deidara flew on his great clay bird, high in the skies, waiting for the mysterious girl named Ari, then as if on cue, Ari exploded through the clouds. The two eagles Deidara had seen yesterday spiralled around her, then the two peeled away, they then flew off toward the sun, fading into the distance. Ari's golden hair shone in the sun, she spun, spiralling in the clouds. Then she turned around, and for the first time, Ari saw Deidara. Cautiously Ari flew toward Deidara, her eyes locked with his, her eyes held an unknown pain and betrayal. Ari flew in circles around the blond examining the bird he sat on.

"Who are you" she asked, her voice was unsure, almost scared.

"My name is Deidara un" he replied, locking eyes with the mysterious winged girl, Ari.

She smiled

"That's a funny name, Deidara un" Ari answered with a laugh,

"My name is just Deidara, not Deidara un" Deidara retorted angrily, he hated it when people made fun of his accent. Ari seemed to notice his anger and shrunk away

"Sorry Deidara" Ari replied frowning,

"Sorry if I scared you, I don't like it when I get made fun of un" Deidara announced,

Ari's frown became a smile

"Did you make this Deidara-san ?" Ari asked still wary, all the while gesturing to the bird Deidara sat on,

"yea you can sit on it if you want un" Deidara replied, patting a spot beside him,

Ari swooped down and sat on the clay bird, right beside Deidara she reached out and gently touched the clay bird, a smile etching its way across her face as she padded around on the bird childishly.

Deidara blushed, Ari's poor excuse for clothes covered barley any skin, and revealed far too much.

"This is amazing, how did you make it?" Ari asked curiously, eyeing the bird.

"With these" Deidara replied, holding his hands up to reveal two pairs of mouths on the palms of his hands, one smiled at Ari. Ari gasped as she looked at the pair of extra mouths,

"Whoa that's cool, were you born with them or was it a juitsu thingy" Ari asked excitedly, her eyes lighting up.

"I know that this is going to sound strange, I'm part of an organisation called the Akatsuki, and I was sent to recruit you un" Deidara explained ,

Ari grinned

"well why didn't you say so, come on get me out of this hell hole!" Ari exclaimed

Deidara's eyes widened, this girl wanted to come and join the Akatsuki, well she was stuck in a tiny little cage. Then Ari began to feel the long chain that bound her to the group of ninja on the ground begin to tug, signifying she had to return to the ground, and thus back to the cage.

"tomorrow at sunset, I'll break you out un" Deidara called as Ari began to swoop down to the ground. Ari grinned, she liked this guy already.

As Ari landed on the ground, the blond haired ninja came up to her

"What's it like, flying?" he asked unusually quiet, his comrades had returned to the compound to prepare Ari's cage.

"Well little ninja, it's like freedom, you take for granted" Ari answered, her voice low,

"Your teammates are going to get worried if I don't return soon" she continued

Naruto nodded picking up the cold metallic chain and began to lead Ari back through the grass. As the two arrived back at the 'cage' as Ari referred to it. Naruto's teammates were waiting at the entrance to her cell.

"Come on Naruto, put her away so we can go already" the pink haired girl exclaimed bored

"Of course Sakura-Chan!" Naruto exclaimed his mask back in place. He unclipped the chain from around Ari's neck and shut the door. Ari walked up the swing in the centre of the cell and leapt onto it. She swung on it gently thinking about the two blonds, Deidara and Naruto
