NUMBER 7 IS FINALLY OUT! I'm so sorry everyone! Thanks also to those who reviewed and gave me tips. i REALLY appreciated them !
Any questions, review. R & R please!
BTW, THIS IS A ONE MONTH TIME SKIP!
Sakura ran a hand through her head of pink hair. Sighing, she tapped her pencil on her desk impatiently.
"You're not really that stupid are you?" an all too familiar voice teased.
"Huh? Hmph, be quiet you freaking weasel" the girl replied in irritation.
"Hn. Carry over the 17 and divide by 9" Itachi instructed, pointing at the problem Sakura was stuck on.
Sakura blushed out of embarrassment. "Eh? Really, that's it?!"
"Aa..."
Sakura continued the rest of her math homework. They were at Deidara's house. The Akatsuki were meeting there for the week.
Sakura had befriended them pretty easily, in about a month or so. Sure, they were all slightly insane, but they were still good people... and being a new member of the Akatsuki, Sakura had found out that the whole organization was really on friendly terms with the police and assist them in crimes and all that shit. But they still did what you'd call "bad things." The occasional murders and such, and because of their friendly terms with the forces, they are never suspected.
One word came to mind when Sakura found out. Smart.
In about an hour or so, the rest of the Akatsuki had gathered in Deidara's basement. At the moment, Konan – the only female member besides Sakura – was scolding Pein – the leader – because he was yelling at Sasori for being one minute late. Kakuzu was counting his money while his partner, Hidan, was scolding him about how Lord Jashin doesn't appreciate greedy and selfish people like him. Tobi was running around in circles as an ANGRY (oh, that's not good) Deidara was chasing him. Zetsu was talking to himself. Sasori was stuffing a sparrow. He was a part-time taxidermist, and he absolutely loved making puppets out of things that used to be alive... y'know, dead things. And Kisame, Itachi and Sakura were sitting down on the couch watching a rerun of The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy, Sakura and Kisame's choice.
"DESTROY US ALL! DESTROY US ALL! DESTROY US ALL! DESTROY US ALL! DESTROY US ALL!" Billy repeatedly cried out.
Kisame groaned. "Damned boy!"
"Eh? What's wrong with tangerines?" Sakura commented.
"Fool." Itachi muttered out, propping his elbow on the armrest and placing his cheek on his fist.
-A Little While Later...-
"Ok then... now that everything's set, I'd like to discuss the Halloween Dance with everyone." Pein announced.
A few cheers and a groan was heard from the members. After they had settled down, Pein continued. "As you all know, the dance is being held this Friday, the day before Halloween, which is on Saturday. Tsunade-sama has asked the Akatsuki to monitor the events—"
"CAUSE WE'RE SUPER AWESOME!!... yeah" Deidara cried out.
The Leader silenced him with a glare. "Anyways, we just have to make sure no one spikes the punch or does anything "innapropriate" during the dance." he continued, emphasizing the word 'innapropriate' with air quotes "We are also going to be the hosts of the scare-a-thon, since the super-fab idea was invented by yours truly" Pein grinned.
"Cocky bastard..." Konan muttered.
"Huh? Isn't that Itachi? Or Sasuke?" Sakura commented, nudging Konan on her elbow.
Konan frowned, furrowing her eyebrows. "True... ugh, whatever. Men are so confusing." she shook her head.
"..,We can also participate in the contest as well, if you guys want to, or just try to mess up the other teams and such. Winning teams will rule the school for an entire day, so we are SO joining this thing. No other options."
"YAY!"
"Any other questions?"
Zetsu raised a hand. "The dance is in three days, correct?"
Pein nodded. "Friday, mhm."
Sasori raised un mano (a hand). "Is the Akatsuki attire required or can we go as what we wish to be?"
"Anything you want." Pein grinned. (Me: Like, ohmigod, can you imagine that? Itachi: ...Rara, we've been through this and—Pein: This time I am joining this conversation. Hmph. How insulting. Me: Hehe...sorry Leader-sama... Itachi: -sulks in a corner because he was cut off-
As Zetsu began to raise his hand, Pein interrupted him, "No killing or eating anyone." and Zetsu's hand went back down.
Seeing that there were no more questions, Pein waved them off to go do what they desired. He wanted some of those chocolate chip cookies Deidara had made. Damn, were they good.
"Sakura-chan, whatcha gonna be?" Deidara asked, arching his eyebrows curiously.
She shrugged "I don't have a costume yet... but probably a witch or something."
Deidara grinned "Let's pick something skimpy and revealing!!" he exclaimed, with a thumbs up.
Sakura flushed a bright red.
BOOM!
"MORON!!" she screamed to her fullest extent, grinding her super sharp Converse heels (not) against Deidara's head, which was currently on the cold...hard...floor.
Poor guy was instantly K.O.'ed.
Sasori snickered at the sight of his unconscious partner. He considered poisoning the blonde while he was down, but decided against it. Sakura would probably find a cure anyways. She was good at that medical stuff. He knew, 'cause that one time, when he thought she was an intruder, he like, sorta stabbed her with a needle thingy and she got poisoned, and then she like, didnt get harmed cause she knew how to get rid of it and stuff... :D
"Sasori, what are you gonna be?" the teen asked, turning her head to face the redhead.
"A PUPPET MASTER!! ...yeah"
Dude, are you freaking serious? Wasn't he just knocked out a few seconds ago?!
Sasori glared at the 'pansy' as he called him. "I am not, I'm already that all year. I'm gonna be Frankenstein."
"Ooh! Ooh! Can Tobi be the wife lady?!"
(Everyone's thoughts): How disturbing.
"No, no, no." Sakura pursed her lips. "Deidara would fit that, since he looks like a girl and all—" she noticed the murderous glare and aura her friend was emitting.
"A-a very PRETTY girl!" she added quickly, making him smile slightly "Also, he's Sasori's partner. But still...that idea would make you guys seem like gay lovers."
Everyone nodded in agreement. Tobi sulked in a corner, growing some mushrooms.
"I'm going as a zombie groom!" Deidara grinned. "Sakura-chan, you can be my zombie bride!!"
A long pause. "N-no. I don't think so."
"Sooo... what are you gonna be 'tachi?" Sakura asked the silent ebony haired man.
"Nothing."
She gasped. "NON-BELIEVER! You have to be something! I, personally think that you should go as a vampire! 'Cause sometimes you give off this molestor/raper-ish vibe, that reminds me of Dracula when he sucks the blood out of some poor girl's neck and he acts like he's gonna jump her or whatever!" Sakura finished off with a grin.
The girl was completely oblivious to the hardening death glare the elder Uchiha—her ex-boyfriend's brother—was giving her. That didn't even count the deadly aura emitting him, oh and was that the raperish vibe? Oh no, it's not. I think its more murder than rape. Mhm. Yup. Either way it is SO not good.
"S-Sakura-chan..." Deidara tapped her on the shoulder.
She turned "What?" she snapped.
He pointed nervously at Itachi, who was slowly standing up. Sakura looked back at him, then at Deidara, then at him, then at Deidara, then at him and then Deidara. And then there was an "oh."
-
(!$$FAST FORWARD TO BUYING COSTUMES$$!)
Sakura was shopping with Konan, Temari, Tayuya, Tenten and Kin. Her new female friends. She met them through Konan. Tayuya and Sakura bonded together naturally. Konan and Temari were in their senior year. Tenten, Tayuya and Kin were in the same year as her, sophomore.
"No...no...ew, no! Look at this guys, its so freaking whorish!" Tenten nearly gagged. She was rummaging through the rack of costumes, slightly annoyed. And then that...that thing, came into view.
It was a devil costume, a bright red...and it seemed to be made out of leather. The top was strapless and it showed WAAAY too much cleavage. The sides were torn, giving view to the person's waist. It ended in a really short miniskirt that was black and made from a thin fabric, not transparent, but nearly there. A small tail sprouted from where the ass was and it showed a LOT of back. It came with a black choker with a red devil's tail on it and a red horned headband.
"Hn. We should buy it for the bitch (-cough-Sora-cough-)." Tayuya commented, her face showed repulse everywhere.
Sakura chortled "Too late, she already has one. I saw it at home."
Temari put a finger on her chin "It suits her" she decided.
"Yeah, the girl's a slut. Not to mention a devil as well." Konan rolled her eyes at the thought of Sora.
"Mhm."
As far as Sakura knew, everyone in the Akatsuki and her new friends hated Sora. In the short time she'd been there, it seemed that she'd already done something terrible to them. For example, Sakon, Tayuya's now, ex-boyfriend, was cheating on her for Sora. He was dumped a day later. Kin's best friends, Dosu and Zaku both had wild make-out sessions with her, which was hard to take since Sora hurt them both, making Kin feel terrible. Sasori just used her as a plaything, other than that, he knew she was a whore and he hates girls like that. Deidara hated her because Sakura hated her. Itachi hated Sora because he discreetly knew what Sora did to Sakura, even if the rosette never said it out loud. And so on. Well, Sakura wasn't sure how Tobi felt. No one was ever sure how Tobi felt, the dummy was a mystery.
The girls continued rummaging through the racks of costumes. In the end, Sakura bought a totally hot witch costume. Tayuya got a sorceress costume. Tenten bought a ninja outfit, cause her weapon skills are FREAKIN' awesome. Kin bought a kind of zombie geisha outfit. Temari was going as a gothic angel. And Konan was going as an assassin (which she sorta already is).
An hour later they were at Sakura's house. It was empty since her parents were at a business conference in France with Sora's parents. They'd be gone for at least 2-3 weeks. And Sora was being someone's plaything most likely.
"Hey, do you guys read Harry Potter?" Sakura asked, blowing her nails.
A few "yes's" and "no's" were scattered.
"Oh, whatever, guess what?"
The other girls looked up, Tayuya sat up from her upside down position on Sakura's bed. "What?"
"Dumbledore is gay!!!" Sakura exclaimed, eyes wide open "As in homosexual gay!"
"No really?" Kin asked, eyebrows raised.
"Dumbledore's that old guy with the white beard thing right?" Tayuya asked, slightly interested.
Sakura nodded.
"How do you know?" Temari asked, not believing the girl at all.
"Cause the author, J.K. Rowling said it during a conference! I read it on line! I was SHOCKED."
"I don't believe you" Konan rolled her eyes.
"I'm serious this time! I'm not lying!" the pink haired girl insisted.
"Sure you are..."
"I swear on Sora's grave!!!"
"Anyone would swear on that..." Temari snorted.
"On my mother and father's!!"
"That too!"
"Oh come on!!"
And so they continued the conversation. (which is true by the way. J.K. Rowling revealed that when the director's were planning the 6th Harry Potter movie. I'm so serious, it's not even funny.)
-The next day at school-
"Hey, I just realized you managed to get through a whole week without breaking another cafeteria desk" Itachi whispered into Sakura's ear teasingly. One. It made her become bright pink. Two, it nearly scared the shit out of her. And three. It was true.
"Yeah!" Sakura grinned, when the shock had receded. She took a bite out of her spaghetti. "I am so freaking awesome!"
Itachi rolled his eyes in reply and walked over to who knows where to supervise who knows what.
When Sakura turned to face the others at her table, she was rewarded with sly faces and grins. She blinked. "What?"
"Nothing!!" Kin replied in a sing-song voice, still grinning.
"...ok?" Sakura continued to eat her lunch. She glanced upwards. "Ok, could you guys like, not stare at me like that? It's making me feel awkward."
They didn't reply, but looked away. And so did Sakura. But as soon as she did, the grins and stares returned.
"Do I have something on my face?" she asked, furrowing her eyebrows.
Tenten shook her head. "Nope, it's crystal clean!"
"...ok..."
STARE. STARE. STARE.
"OK, CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT'S GOING ON?!" she demanded, officially frustrated.
"Heehee, you like Itachi-teme..." Tayuya snickered.
Sakura almost choked on her on spit. "HOLY FU WHAT THE HELL?!" was followed by coughs.
"You guys are CRAZY! I can NOT like my EX-BOYFRIEND's brother! That's like, against the rules!"
"What rules?" Tenten asked, cocking her head to the side.
"You know, that book of rules with the yellow chicken on it and the big black title."
"Oh, but isn't that Old MacDonald?"
"...maybe... Oh, but that's not the point! I do not like him!" Sakura yelled, pouting.
"Sure ya don't..." they kept those grins on their faces.
"I don't!"
I don't!!
I don't think I do...
Do I?
NO! I DON'T!
OK. The end. How was that? Next chappie is the (late) Halloween dance. I'm SO sorry! Ok, please review! I need to know how I'm progressing, since I just recently figured out that I have no idea how to structure my sentences. Damned English class. Ugh, whatever. Review! AND JOIN THE DARK SIDE!! ...we've got cookies... :DDDD
