CHAPTER NINE! AKATSUKI SLEEPOVER!!!
Sakura panted as she came in the backdoor, carrying the grocery bag with a couple bottles of black nail polish. It was pretty cheap, too, but she had to run all the way home to get there on time.
Sakura placed the bag in her duffel bag, and looked at the clock. 6:57 pm.
BEEP BEEP!
Good, right on time! Sakura thought as she grabbed her bag and took her keys before heading for the door. She had her books and school stuff in her duffel so that she could just go to school from the Leader's house.
"Sakura-chan! Hop in! Hurry, we're gunna be late, yeah!" Deidara called. She rushed in and took a seat in the back.
"…."
"Sasori is driving because he is a pain in my ass, yeah…."
"Shut up, blondie, you're ankle is too weak to drive the car today."
"…how?"
"Gaara kicked his ass earlier…"
"DANNA!" Deidara shrieked and then crossed his arms huffily trying to hide his embarrassment. Ug, my pride is gone, yeah.
"So…everyone will be there?" Sakura asked, after getting her seat belt on and getting comfortable. Deidara really did have a nice car….
"Yupe! And there will be A LOT of awesome junk food! Leader ALWAYS has the best food at his house."
"…uhm…you guys don't…drink or smoke do you…?" Sakura asked quietly, knowing she probably sounded like an innocent little wimpy girl. Sasori glanced at her while Deidara turned around fully in his seat.
"Nope! Except Kisame, he is a huge drinker. He gets loaded big time and then ends up passing out everytime! And the only one who smokes is Kakuzu, he smokes cigarettes, yeah. It's mostly because Leader doesn't want our minds clouded, always wants us to be alert. Though, Kakuzu smokes so he doesn't overstress himself, and calms himself from going on random bloody rampages. Kisame….well, he can fend for himself…yeah"
"oh…I see." Sakura was relieved. She didn't want to be hanging around a bunch of potheads for the evening, though being Akatsuki, she thought atleast half of them would be into that stuff.
"Plus, how will we ever complete world domination, as leader quotes, if we die early from petty health complications, yeah."
"Makes sense…" Sakura said thoughtfully.
"Of course it does. That is why he is our Leader, because he is logical and a prodigy in disguise. He could have been a rocket scientist by now if he didn't procrastinate and be so lazy all the time…" Sasori said.
"hahaha sounds like Shikamaru!" Sakura laughed.
"Shika who?" Deidara asked confused.
"Oh! He is one of my friends, I guess. He is probably one of the smartest people I know, but he is REALLY lazy. Kind of funny, thinking about it…"
"We're here." Sakura looked up to see a HUGE MANSION! She squealed in surprise. It was so fancy looking! White mansion with a huge front yard and a small pond to the side, and was a perfect dream home. She stepped out of the car and walked along with Deidara and Sasori to the front door. Both smirked at her reaction but kept quiet.
Sasori reached to the doorbell and waited. Finally the door opened, and a butler stepped aside. Sakura thanked him quickly, and noticed his subtle surprise at her presence. When they took off their shoes and left the room, Deidara leaned towards her ear.
"Akatsuki NEVER had a girl in their group in all the years we've been together, so Ralph is kinda surprised. He is the main care taker of this house, besides Louisa, who is the housekeeper."
Sakura nodded, still amazed by the breath taking house. The floors were black marble, and the walls each had a unique and beautiful painting decorating it. The three reached a door all the way at the end of a hallway, and opened it. Stairs descended past her eye sight and she was pushed to the front of them.
She gasped as she reach the bottom step. There was a black soft carpet covering the floors from wall to wall. The room was humongous, probably the size of two of her bedrooms, and her bedroom was pretty big. To the left was a huge plasma TV hooked up to a PlayStation and two DDR metal pads, with a bunch of DDR discs around it. There was a stereo on the other side with a huge rack of cds, and there was also another TV hooked up to an X-box, where Hidan and Kakuzu were playing some sort of military battle game. There was a ping pong/pool table in the back of the room, and in the middle was a long table with different snacks and drinks around it. There were enough chairs for everyone.
Sakura stepped into the room and noticed another part of the room, containing huge comfortable looking red couches. There was also two bathroom doors on either side of the room.
"Wow….." She said in awe, looking around at everything. 'New Design' by Thousand Foot Krutch flowed out of the speakers, while Itachi looked through them. The blue haired man with the flower sat on a couch reading a book. On the DDR were Zetsu and Kisame, with Tobi jumping up and down cheering for Zetsu. Leader was not in sight.
"So…where is Leader?" She asked, looking up at the two boys who were smiling at her.
"Ah, who knows, he won't come until another 20 minutes. He is always 30 minutes late to his own meetings, for some reason….yeah."
"Oh, I see…" Sakura walked around the room, and stopped at where Hidan and Kakuzu were playing.
"Nascar? What happened to the army game?"
"Hidan is too much of a fucking idiot to have the patience needed to strategize…so he lost"
"SHUT UP! I totally kicked your ass in that one, you damn liar! EAT THIS STITCH BOY!" Hidan veered his car into Kakuzu's on screen making it flip over.
"WHY YOU LITTLE---" At this point, Kakuzu was strangling the wise ass Hidan and Sakura decided to move to the next place…
"Hi Itachi!" She said. Itachi looked up at her and smirked before going back to looking through the CD collection.
Sakura lifted a hand to one CD and read the label.
"Spice Girls?!" She asked, kind of freaked out.
"mmmm reminds me of the 6th grade talent show…." Itachi said, his eyes looking away into space.
Itachi's flashback!
The current seven members of Akatsuki (Zetsu, Itachi, Kisame, Leader, Sasori, Deidara, Kakuzu) stood at much shorter levels that now on a stage in front of a huge crowd. Their red clouded cloaks hung from their thin frames as they shuffled into position on stage.
"HIT IT!" Barked the leader, who was somehow totally covered in shadow, despite the spotlights on the group.
It was that year that they did the performance of 'Spice Up Your Life' by the Spice Girls. They all sang it, and danced. They won, somehow. Probably because Leader decided they would get more votes if they removed the cloaks during the middle of the performance to reveal everyone but himself kisame and Zetsu in drag. Itachi's hair was in pigtails and Deidara, himself, and Sasori all wore red clouded black skirts, huge platform black shoes, and a red tank tops. Of course, this memory was recorded, why wouldn't it be?!
End of Flashback
"Yeah….Leader was obsessed with them back then…." Sakura was fiddling with her fingers as she tried to absorb the memory Itachi described to her. She said her goodbye and left the awkward area.
Next, was DDR! She stood next to Deidara who was with Tobi cheering. Kisame was sweating a lot as he tried to keep up with Zetsu, who was completely cool and calm.
GAME OVER!
"DAMMIT!" Kisame shouted, tugging at his blue hair. Zetsu grinned happily and got off the machine. Sakura leaned in to see what level and what score they got.
A for Zetsu…..F for Kisame…..BEGINNER?!
Sakura looked at Kisame who was panting, and wiping his brow.
"Dude….you are so out of shape if you couldn't even do something as simple as Beginner without having a heart attack…." She said. Kisame looked up.
"Oi, pink haired bitch, don't sound so cocky, it's not as easy as it looks." He stated. She smirked and got on the metal board. She looked back at Deidara who nodded and happily got on the next board. Kisame grunted as he leaned on the back handle for support, and watched the two. Some of the other members, like Itachi, Hidan, Kakuzu, and Sasori who decided to amuse themselves in this little match came over.
"I bet Deidara will win! Totally." Hidan challenged Kakuzu. Kakuzu studied the two before making the bet on Sakura. Five sweet dollars, ah yes, Kakuzu was set on NOT loosing his precious money tonight.
Itachi leaned on the rail behind Sakura, with a curious expression setting into his normally stoic face. After all, everyone in the group knew Deidara was the master at DDR. Well…he was better than anyone there atleast….
Sakura scrolled down the lists of songs and finally found one she liked. She looked over at Deidara who nodded in agreement and she clicked it.
LEVEL
Deidara clicked light and entered. Sakura, chose Standard. Some of the crowd raised their eyebrow but said nothing. Deidara glanced at Sakura before paying full attention to the screen.
The first song was "Look At Us". Sakura won, which made Hidan curse and Kakuzu chuckle. Oh yes, my money senses are tingling…..money for me toniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight!
The next round, which could be the end of Deidara, or a tie until the third round, was the song "It's a wonderful night". Deidara won, as Sakura couldn't quite keep up. She got a D, he got a B. Finally, the final round. Kakuzu clutched the edge of his cloak as he leaned a little more forward. Hidan pumped his fists screaming and demanding Deidara to win.
"IF YOU LOSE THIS ROUND I WILL RIP EVERY SINGLE STRAND OF THAT GOD DAMN GIRLY HAIR OF YOURS, YOU PANSY!"
Good, Hidan. Keep threatening him. Make him as nervous as possible….so I CAN WIN! MONEH!
The last song, "Move your feet". Deidara kept up easily, as did Sakura. Finally the scores showed.
Deidara- A ……
Sakura – AA!!
Kakuzu jumped up and cheered, making everyone turn to him with O.o eyes. He didn't care though, he grabbed Hidan by the shoulders and smiled maliciously at him.
"I want meh moneh, NOW!" He said excitedly. Hidan grumbled, reaching into his pocket and hesitantly took it out. Kakuzu snatched it and ran away to the couch at add it to his wallet, where he would recount all his money and plan out a system of where it would go.
"Interesting." Itachi commented, looking at the total and comparing it to Deidara's. Of course, one would think Deidara might be a little sad that his days as DDR master were over….but…He was thrilled!
"Sakura-chan! That was awesome! You're awesome! I finally have some one good to play with yeah!! See, all these other idiots here can't get past light on the slow songs….well…except Itachi…he is pretty good, but he doesn't play much at all. OH! But we are gunna have so much fun, yeah!" The blonde was hugging the life out of the poor pink haired girl.
"Deidara, you're suffocating her." Sasori remarked. Deidara instantly let go and blushed slightly.
"EVERYONE!" Leader's voice rang out through the room. All the members took a seat at the table, usually with their 'partners' like Kisame and Itachi, Hidan and Kakuzu. Leader sat at the end and the Unknown took a seat at the other end.
"Ahem….we are here today, to discuss our progress and such….Now. I had a dream, Akatsuki. I had a dream I wish to make a reality. Most of you have heard of this dream, but one I know has not! This is why I must tell you again. OUR dream….World Domination!"
It was really quiet around the table, as Leader looked into space with a dreamy glint in his red eyes. He coughed and fixed his pose again, glaring at each member as he spoke.
"Now…We have discussed our three step plan to this goal. First, collect and gain as much money as possible! This shall help support us in the future, as well as pay for many necessary things for Akatsuki. Kakuzu, what is the total for now?"
"……30 dollars and twenty cents…"
"EXCELLENT! Now….our second goal….Two gather followers, and develop our main group. That I can see is completed. We have our pyromaniac, Deidara. Our ever clever poison master Sasori….prodigy and ever devious conniving spokesperson and persuader, master of hypnosis Itachi. Our foundation, and pretty convincing torture specialist Hidan. Our mathematician, and official treasurer Kakuzu. Our personal medics and spys Tobi and Zetsu. Kisame, the collector, who successfully beats the crap out of our enemies, traitors and people we just don't like. And of course, the Unknown, being the one to take care of our files, cases, and other important matters. Me, the Leader as the Leader…..and lastly, Sakura Haruno, newest addition to Akatsuki, the OFFICIAL NAIL PAINTER!"
"Our organization is complete! Now…the third step. To take over all opposing forces and step up to World Domination! But, as our secretary, the Unknown, has calculated, we have to wait a LONG time until that can ever happen….so. We shall stick with collecting more money! Also, Haruno, we need to give you our official stuff. Kakuzu will take care of that issue after. AKATSUKI DISMISSED!!
Everyone got up, including the Leader, and stretched. Leader and the Unknown went to the couches to plan some more while Hidan challenged Kisame to a game of Super Mario Bros.
"Follow me…" Kakuzu ordered. Sakura nodded and followed him over to the pile of duffel bags near the couch area. She picked hers up and placed it on the end of the pile while Kakuzu reached in and grabbed his own. He opened it and took out a package.
"In this is the gym uniform, the 'pink day' uniform, an extra though smaller and more form-fitting cloak, a couple skirts, shirts and jackets, as well as shoes, socks, a back pack, toothbrush, earrings, necklace, Akatsuki ring, A few pairs of Pajamas and the Akatsuki Guide Book. Wear and use some of these tonight, to show respect. Leader expects great manicures from you in the future. Don't let him down."
With that, Kakuzu handed her the package and went off to hit and possibly find a way to make more money out of Hidan's pocket.
Sakura opened the package and looked at some of the things. There were three skirts, two of them mini and the other knee length. The two shirts were red and black, with Akatsuki and the cloud on the back and the jacket was the same. She took out the pajamas and placed them in her bag openly, as well as took the toothbrush, red and black socks, and rings. The ring had a black finger hole, and on the top was the red cloud outlined in white. The other ring was a lot like the other member's ring, except on the top it was a light pink with the kanji 'Sakura' written on it. She put that one on immediately, since everyone else was wearing theirs every waking moment it seemed.
She sighed and got up. Well, this should be a fun night, she thought happily, as she raced back to the DDR machine to verse Tobi who was bragging that he could beat anyone. Sasori and Deidara were sitting on the rug watching, and Itachi sat on a random chair. He watched Sakura, noticing how toned her muscles were, from his view anyway.
Long legs, thin waist….well developed curves. Yes, she is hot. Itachi looked about the room, and noticed how many of the guys were checking her out. Hidan was, definitely. Zetsu…well, he did take a look at her every once in a while. Leader and the Unknown were both dating, from what he managed to conclude, so they were more concerned about groping each other. Kisame would do it as often as Hidan, and Deidara? Well, Deidara made an excuse to touch her any chance he got. Sasori….well, he had a hard time determining him. Sasori not once checked Sakura out, from what he could tell….then again, Sasori was sneaky like that….Tobi was infatuated with Zetsu…but Tobi did leer at her a couple times, as did Kakuzu when he wasn't busy with his money or winning a bet.
Itachi sighed. I guess I should make sure no one jumps her while she is sleeping or in the shower…..for Sasuke's sake. I think I gave my foolish brother a meltdown after I left the house…..funny, he has been acting so odd ever since the beginning of summer.
Sasuke used to bug him about letting him join Akatsuki. But ever since the summer he has not said a word. Strange…but what is weirder is that his whole aura changed. Sasuke….he was annoying, and always thought of Itachi as his rival in his parents attention, but now, it was as if there was something else…..the waves of hatred that seemed to fill Sasuke's eyes whenever they looked at each other, or the pain and despair Sasuke's eyes would show whenever he thought no one was looking. It was all too strange for him to comprehend.
"Maybe he decided he needs to become emo-er than me as well…..foolish little brother indeed….although…" Itachi looked back over at Sakura.
"He does have an interest in her….I wonder….how pissed he would be….if…" Itachi's murmurings were cut short when Kisame flapped onto Itachi, almost flattening him.
"KI-SA…ME! Get Off!"
The strong smell of alcohol seemed to already be floating around the fish man as he clumsily fell off the chair.
"Itachi, HICCUP! Where is the…………….HICCUP...TREE RAPE!"
"god, Kisame…what the hell did you drink?"
"…..VODKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"
"Dear lord help us…where did you get it from?"
"Barbie gave it too me….HICCUP!"
"…Deidara doesn't even drink Vodka…"
"DEIDARA WHAT THE HELL!" Deidara flew past them and his tall frame crashed into the wall. Leader was too busy playing footsy with the Unknown to notice the crash.
"what…?"
Sasori stood beside Itachi, watching as Sakura bitch slapped Deidara, who was apologizing a lot.
"He fell on her and grabbed her boob."
"oh."
And so, the next ten minutes of their time, Akatsuki decided to watch as Deidara was beaten the shit out of for the second time that day.
Meanwhile…
"Dammit, ITACHI!" Sasuke shouted, punching his bed.
He had to think fast. All those horny, perverted teenage men could gang up on Sakura. She was too weak to take on all of them at once! And they were Akatsuki!
"Stupid annoying girl. What was she thinking? Dammit…"
Sasuke paced around his room, trying to think of something to do.
An idea hit him. He lunged for his cell phone, an odd object his mother taught him how to use over the summer, and dialed Naruto's number. He waited impatiently for the 'dobe' to pick up.
"NARUTO!"
"Ah SASUKE-TEME!"
"Listen, Sakura is over at an Akatsuki's house, and they are all there and Sakura is the only girl there….She is surrounded by horny, perverted teenage guys!! We need to get her stupid self outta there!"
"WHAT! So that's where she went….ah, ok Sasuke! I know, we can spy on them and make sure nothing happens! Do you know where she is exactly? The address?"
And that was when Sasuke's world crashed down….
THE ADDRESS?! SHIT! I HAVE NO IDEA!
OOOOOOh how will Sasuke and Naruto ever protect our Sakura from the Akatsuki if they don't even know where she is?! And what awaits Sakura as she continues to spend the night at Leader's house? Oooo and what is this? Sibling rivalry steps up a notch, and Sasuke is PISSED! ALL IN THE NEXT CHAPTER!
Deidara: Yeah! So REVIEW!!!
