M-P: Hey guys! Just wanted to say hello! How are you all? I hope you are all well. I was very fuulish and twisted my foot, so I'm chair- ridden at the computer.
I turned around, and came face to face with . . . a puppet?! I let out a short scream before backing away. My breathing increased when I saw that there were some kind of glowing strings attached to it. Immediately, I was pushed out of the way and my path was blocked by a stream of pink hair.
"Stay back, Macey!" Jazz told me, stepping backwards and forcing me to as well.
"You guys, who are you?" Eve asked. Tasha stood beside her and placed her hand on her shoulder.
"Where in hell are we?" she muttured, glancing around in mock horror.
"And who in hell are you?" Ava finished, standing in front of both her sisters. It was then that I noticed that they weren't talking to the massive man puppet. They were talking to the hunchback behind the man puppet and his friends. My god. I almost passed out. Almost all were men, or teenage boys, save one, and clothed in a black cloak with crimson clouds dotted over them. A guy with orange hair came forth and looked us over impassively. He's analysing us. I suddenly felt exposed, in my casual raspberry mini day dress and my flat red knee high boots, and so, hugged my mini red jacket closer to my body.
"Looks like they're really awake now, un." A blonde guy, an incredibly cute blonde guy, with his hair tied in a half pony tail and a long bang covering his left eye commented. 'Un'? Must be a speaking implement. Keira stood forward, as the rest of us walked in the opposite direction. Aubree tried to pull Keira back, but she shook her off, her aurburn pony tail flicking with the movement, the loose curls on the end brushing against my face.
"We asked you a question. Please answer it." She whispered. My heart pounded. Oh Keira. The blonde eyed her warily, then turned to look at the others.
"Well, brat, you spoke first. You deal with them." The puppet master dismissed. Blondie looked pleased and turned back to us.
"We are the Akatsuki," he stated. "And you, are at our mercy."
