Deidara's POV
Shit, this wasn't good. The safe place was at least a few kilometres away , and they had already figured out it was him. Shit…. He wasn't going to get away !! He looked back and bumped right into Sakura.
'S-Sakura !!' He stuttered. Sakura stumbled backwards. 'What the hell Deidara ! Look out where you're go-' Deidara grabbed her arm , and pulled her with him. 'Whoa !! Deidara ! What are you doing !?' Sakura yelled at him. Deidara was about to answer , when a scream from behind caught their attention. 'You won't get away Akatsuki !! Give up now if you do not want to get harmed !!'
'Wha…People !! We should stop !! They can save us Deidara !!' Sakura pulled Deidara into a stop. 'Lets go !!' She began pulling him towards the voices
'No Sakura ! you don't understand ! We gotta run ! Un!' Shit ! Why didn't she just run ! They were going to catch up !!
'You can do whatever you wish Deidara ! But I'M not going to run away from those people ! I don't want to die just yet ! If you want to die , that's fine with me ! But I just want to see my friends again! And you are not going to stop me !' And with that , she turned around and ran towards the voices.
'NO ! Sakura wait please !! Un !' She didn't listen. Deidara hesitated for a moment , scowled , and took off in the other direction. Shit………I'm losing her…… And there's nothing I can do about it… He felt tears coming up when he thought that. But at least she'll be happy with her friends again…….
He ran for a little while. He slowed down a bit…. And stood still… Why aren't they following me ? He turned around , walked in the direction he came from and listened. Why aren't they following me ? Oh no…… What if they thought that Sakura was ME ?! SHIT !!
If anything happened to her I'll never forgive myself !! Where were they ? Where had they taken her ? I have to find her and make sure she's okay… He ran towards the place where he had left Sakura just a moment ago.

Sakura's POV
People ! She was about to be saved ! Away from this damn swamp ! Away from the trouble and back to her friends and family !! And Deidara almost ruined it ! What was he thinking ! Letting a chance like this go by !! Well…. If he wanted to die in this goddamned swamp, that's okay with me , but he also assumed that I rather stayed here than being saved !
He could've at least asked her…… She heard noises just a few bushes away.There ! People !
'HEY !! HEY !! I'M HERE !!' She yelled , she began waving her arms around , and she felt tears coming up.
She could see the shadow of a two people just behind that tree. She dashed out of the bushes and Hugged the figure with all her might. Finally I'm saved !!
'WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK ?!GET OFFA ME YOU FREAKIN' BITCH!!' She got pushed away harshly. She hit the ground hard. 'Ouch !!… Why'd you-' She looked up. No……fucking…..way….. you gotta be kidding me……
'AKATSUKIIIII !! 'She screamed , she jumped back on her feet and ran away as fast as she could. She didn't get far. The Akatsuki kicked her in her back , and she fell on the ground. But before she could even think of getting up she felt a knee standing on her back. Her arms were pulled behind her back and tied together. The Akatsuki also made sure she couldn't speak , bound her legs together and flipped her on her back.
She could see his face. Smooth hair , white , but with a hint of silver, purple eye's and an Akatsuki cloak. So this is why Dei didn't want me to go here…but why did he run away ? This guy's supposed to be his comrade…
The Akatsuki brushed away some of the dust and dirt on her face and looked at her face. His eye's widened, and she could see a big crooked grin coming on his face. 'Hey…..Kakuzu , You have NO idea who this is !! '
Kakuzu? That means there's another one ! Shit , I'm in serious trouble……
'The Hokage's Apprentice !!' Right after that , she heard footsteps coming her way. 'Hidan , are you sure ? Do you actually know what the Hokage's apprentice looks like ?' According to the voice , it was a man. Right after that another face came into her sight. He was wearing a mask , but the weird green eyes seemed to pierce her.
'Well then…… We will search for Deidara for a few more day's , and then we head back to the base.' Kakuzu turned around and began walking in some direction. Hidan hesitated a bit. 'But what could the boss want with this girl ?' Kakuzu turned around , he seemed angry. 'You idiot !! We could use her as bait for the Kyuubi ! Don't you know that the Kyuubi and the Hokage;s apprentice are good friends ?! Pheh… you idiot…' And Kakuzu walked away again.
Hidan stood up , walking after Kakuzu. Wha ?! They're gonna leave me here like this ?! 'Hidan , you're forgetting the girl!!' Hidan stood still. 'What ?! Why am I always the one who has to carry the hostages ?!' Kakuzu didn't even answer and kept walking.
Hidan sighed. 'OKAY OKAY !! You win ! I'll carry the bitch.' He picked her up and ran after Kakuzu.
This is so not good…….

With Kakashi ,ANBU and Naruto General POV
'How could it happen ?? How could we have lost track of Deidara !!' Naruto screamed out in frustration. 'AAGH !! ' He began punching a tree out of pure frustration. 'Naruto…. Calm down please…..' Kakashi laid a hand on his shoulder. Naruto turned around.
'No ! I won't calm down !! That Murderer probably killed Sakura-chan , and we are letting him get away !!' He Fell on his knees and began sobbing. 'S-Sa-Saku-ra-chan………'
The others just stood by , watching him. Kakashi finally stepped forward and kneeled next to Naruto. 'Naruto , We still have a chance to get him. Get up and get going !' He stood up en turned to the ANBU. 'That also counts for you people ! GET SEARCHING !!'
Hours later…….
'Naruto….The sun's already down... Everyone is tired.' Kakashi said 'We should stop looking for Deidara. It's too late, we've searched everywhere and we didn't even find a chakra trail……… We should accept failure for now , leave a chakra mark here and return to the base. We can search for Deidara or Sakura tomorrow.'
'No ! We have to keep looking ! I'm sure ! She's close ! Just a few….more…mi..nu…tes….' Naruto fell down. 'Naruto ?! Are you okay ?'Kakashi walked up to Naruto and checked for injuries. ' He fainted , probably stressed out.' Let's head back to the base.
At the Konoha-base.
Team Gai was guarding the base. Everyone was silent. Gai was sleeping , Lee was in the swamp , getting more wood for the campfire. Neij looked up. 'They have arrived.' Not long after he'd said that , Kakashi and the rest of the ANBU appeared. Kakashi laid down Naruto. 'And , did you guy's get rid of the traps ?' The whole team looked at the ground.
'Well…uhm…' Tenten said 'We did… Well , we thought we did…We got rid of the genjutsu, but when we went to explore , a huge bomb exploded. One of the ANBU died in the explosion.'
'And on top of that , we found out that there are at least 8 more of these genjutsu bubbles surrounded with traps……'Neij stated. 'It's impossible to see which one conceals Deidara's base……'
'What about you guy's ? Did you find Sakura or Deidara ?' The others didn't answer. 'What happened to Naruto ? Did you guy's get into a fight ?'
Kakashi sat down. 'No we didn't. We encountered Deidara. He deceived us and got away. We found Sakura's headband…..it was cracked and there was some blood on it. We might have to assume that Deidara Killed Sakura.' The others around the campfire looked at each other.
'Naruto didn't want to believe that Deidara got away and that he killed Sakura , so he kept on searching until he fainted.' They looked at Naruto. 'Poor Naruto……'Tenten said.' What'll we do now Kakashi ?'
Kakashi looked at the ground. And it was quit for a while. 'We'll keep searching for Deidara.' But I don't think that Sakura's still alive… It's useless to search for her if we don't even know if she's alive… But no one will tell Naruto about this. You all know how he is. Keep up the illusion that we're here to look for Sakura. Alright ?'
No one answered. Kakashi stood up. 'I'll let you think about it. But until then , no one will tell Naruto about this.' He turned to the tent and said ' Neij , Tenten , I expect you two to tell Gai and Lee.' And with that , he went into the tent.

Naruto's POV
Only a meter or two away from that same tent lied Naruto , he had woken up when Kakashi had lied him down.
I can't believe it… (A/N: Ironic ;P) They're planning to leave Sakura in this swamp ? We don't even know that Deidara killed her… Only a stupid headband isn't enough proof !! I can't believe that Kakashi said that……
He could feel tears coming up behind his eyes. No! Naruto ! Wake up man !… You're not going to let that happen are you ?! If they don't want to help me finding Sakura-chan….. I'll do it n my own !!
Later that night…..
'Yaaaaaawn……' Tenten let out a big yawn. 'Why are we always the ones to be on guard duty Neij ?' Tenten sighed, and turned to Neij. 'Neij? Where are you ?! Don't make me find you !' Tenten laughed a bit. She jumped into a few bushes , right into Neij. 'Got ya !!Haha !'Neij laughed. 'You won't get me that easily !! Tickle attack !!'
Why are they even trying to hide that they are in love ? Naruto thought. Oh well , this was giving him the perfect chance to get away from the base. He wasn't just going to leave Sakura-chan here in this goddamned swamp all alone ! 'Don't worry Sakura-chan , I'll save you' He whispered softly.
And if he found that Akatsuki he'd rip his head off !!

Deidara's POV
There they are… But what are they doing ,un ?! Where's Sakura ?! Shit … I can't locate her chakra anywhere…. The Kyuubi …. What's he doing ,un? Screaming out loud isn't going to help him… That idiot… I can't believe that he's a dangerous jinchuuriki !! The guy's totally helpless !
Haha , for once it's good that I have no chakra left. There's no way they'll ever find me. I should follow them to their base. Deidara chuckled.
Hours of waiting and watching later…
'Naruto….The sun's already down... Everyone is tired.' Kakashi said 'We should stop looking for Deidara. It's too late, we've searched everywhere and we didn't even find a chakra trail……… We should accept failure for now , leave a chakra mark here and return to the base. We can search for Deidara or Sakura tomorrow.'
Finally… I thought they'd never stop looking for me. Heh those idiots…. Can't find me even though I'm sitting on a branch just 2 meters above them… I should be careful though. The copy ninja could've found me easily if he's used his sharingan. I should follow them from a distance. That won't be too hard.
At the Konoha-base.
Deidara was sitting not far away from their camp. What I'd do just to sit next to that campfire ….. He thought. He listened to their conversation(s).
'-got rid of the genjutsu, but when we went into a certain area , a huge bomb exploded. One of the ANBU died in the explosion.' The girl with the ridiculous ponytails said.
'And on top of that , we found out that there are at least 8 more of these genjutsu bubbles surrounded with traps……' The Byaaku-guy said.
Deidara smirked. Ha , like I'd give away our hideout that easily. The conversations went on and on. He wasn't even listening. Why did he follow them to their base again ? Oh well….. He was hungry , maybe he could snatch away some of their food….
After hours of waiting , everyone in the camp went to bed. Two of them had to guard the camp. But he couldn't say they were doing a good job. After half an hour they started to run around and tickle eachother.
This is my chance , I just sneak up there and steal their fo- Hey… That Kyuubi kid… He's awake. What's he doing ? Shit he's coming my way ! Gotta get away.
He quickly jumped away from his hiding place and hid behind a few bushes , a few meters away from The Kyuubi kid.
'Don't worry Sakura-chan , I'll save you' He could hear him whisper. This could be a problem… It would've been great if he'd only had his full chakra-force. Then he could've captured the Kyuubi easily without the interruption of that Copy-ninja…
Oh well seemed like he'd have to cancel his plan. It'd be a better idea to go to the hideout and dig for some clay. It'd take them days to come to the hideout. It was hidden under at least 12 traps and 9 Genjutsu.
'I'd better get going… Maybe Sakura is there too…. Although I doubt it…Un.' He muttered under his breath.

Hidan's POV
'Aahhhw man !! Why don't we just set up camp !! I'm tired of walking all day Kakuzu !' Hidan whined. 'And that girl weights like ……200 kilos !!' Kakuzu didn't even pay attention to what Hidan was saying.
'Could you at least tell me why we're not setting up camp ? It's not like anyone's gonna find us !' Kakuzu stopped. 'The reason that we're not setting up camp is that we're not alone in this swamp.' Hidan rolled his eyes and muttered something.
'I heard that ! Well , anyway , There are a lot of Genjutsu placed here.' Kakuzu said 'And all filled with traps. I cannot see what kind of traps. But there are a lot of them , and I can tell that they are dangerous. And according to the amount of these traps and genjutsu, There are people here. And we have to assume that they can be a treath' Hidan sighed.
'I don't care !! I wanna sleep !' He threw Sakura on the ground and sat down. 'I'm NOT standing up until-' The sound of leaves and footsteps interrupted Hidan's rant.
'Something's coming!' Kakuzu muttered. He grabbed a kunai. 'Hidan, hide in the bushes and be my backup !!' Hidan nodded. In situations like this , he didn't mind Kakuzu ordering him around , he knew a lot more about attacks that Himself.
Suddenly , something came out of the bushes at full speed and bumped into Kakuzu. 'Whoa !!' A familiar voice yelled.
'DEIDARA ??' Hidan jumped out of the bushes , 'What the hell man ! You idiot !! Where were you ?!' Hidan yelled.
'Hey ! I can't help it ! fighting with the copy ninja , a jinchuuriki and a medic-nin isn't that easy when your partner is a moron ! Un!' Deidara got up , rubbing his head. 'Sorry Kakuzu , I was too busy getting to my hide- Hey ! That's Sakura !' He pointed at Sakura 'Where'd you find her ?' Kakuzu got up. 'She practically ran into our arms…' Kakuzu laughed. Hidan blushed a bit.
'What am I missing, un?….'Deidara asked. ' Nothing nothing !!'Hidan quickly said. 'Let's go ! We should go to your hideout Deidara.' Kakuzu nodded. 'I assume that all of these genjutsu and traps are yours Deidara ?' Deidara nodded. 'I'll bring you to the hideout.' He said. Hidan sighed , and walked over to Sakura. 'No no no, I'll carry her Hidan. Un.' Deidara quickly said. He picked her up and walked in the direction of the hideout.
0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0
Deidara's POV
No way ! No way! Hidan and Kakuzu here !! The timing couldn't be worse ! And they captured Sakura ! Shit. This is no good….. They are probably going to use her as bait for The Kyuubi ! And even if I manage to get her out of this ,they'll kill me and go after Sakura anyway. And that'll double the chance of them finding the Kyuubi. And that will result in having Sakura killed too !
Shit. They arrived at the hideout. He removed the many traps and softly laid Sakura down on the ground. He turned to Kakuzu and Hidan. 'Hey ….you guy's happen to have any food ? I'm starving !' Deidara said.
'Yeah , sure we do. But first we need to contact the leader.' Kakuzu said. Deidara sighed. 'Can't that wait ?'Deidara spoke out. Kakuzu glared at him. 'No it can't.' He replied.
'Leader , we have captured the friend of the Kyuubi and we have found Deidara , alive.' Kakuzu said.'That's good Kakuzu. Have you found the Kyuubi too ?'Kakuzu shook his head. 'No sign of him. Deidara also said that he hasn't sensed anyone's chakra. And he scouted the whole swamp today. That means that there is no one else is in this swamp but us four.' Kakuzu finished.
'Very well. Return to the base. And make sure that the Kyuubi's friend doesn't escape.'
The leader's voice vanished.
'Well then. Let's head back.' Kakuzu said.
I'm sorry Sakura …But there's nothing I can do for you right now…………..
0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0
That's the 10th chapter for now. I hope you guy's liked it. Maybe I'll put the rest of the story in a sequel. Since the swamp will be left out from these chapters on.
Also , Please review and give me suggestiosn.
If you find any mistakes in my story at all , please tell me. ( I'm not talking about grammar mistakes , but story errors. )
That's all for now :D See you all later !
