Chapter 7: Unraveling Minds
Before I begin this Chapter, as promised in my review/ response to other reviews, I am dedicating this chapter to StacieStarr. Who is my lovely friend and the creator of Shio. Yes that's right.
I created Emi
Beka created Sayuri
Stacie created Shio.
I thought it would be an interesting challenge to write characters that were made by others. And my lovelies didn't make it easy. With the cross dressing, and the nyah complex, this story is for sure a challenge. But I need challenges if I'm going to become a better writer. Which I'd like to do, since I'm currently doing research for what I hope is to become a series of 16 short romance novels following different characters, with the same goal in mind… but it's a long way off, and that means I need more practice… clearly with my typing and spelling and grammar. But also with getting past writers block… so here goes.
Part 1: Swimming in Confusion
Kisame watched the scene unwind before him. The lavender haired, poofy dressed, know-it-all weirdo was freaking out about tea. Who does that? It's just tea. The servants were tripping all over themselves to take care of her though. It made no sense to him. He redirected his attention to his partner, Itachi. They had their differences, and Kisame often thought Itachi had ulterior motives, but they did work well together. However a line was definitely crossed when Itachi crashed on the roof of his room. No matter how annoying the girl was, she was just a girl. And Kisame thought Itachi was being immature by letting her get to him
"Is there a problem, Kisame?" the Uchiha asked. Kisame realized he had been staring… Cue homophobic anti- gay stammering.
"No! Nothing. Just lost in thought. Nothing about you. My face was just turned in your direction. I wasn't looking at you, more like through you. But not actually through you, cause I'd need x-ray vision for that. You know, I think I forgot to clean Samehade after that last fight, I should go do that." Kisame leapt to his feet and was about to walk off when he decided to say something rash… "You know Itachi… She's just a girl… if you have a problem you should just talk to her… A woman like that shit… makes them think you care… and before you know it, they let you touch them... u need to get some. Your too uptight…" with that, Kisame flashed out of the room… no point in waiting for Itachi reaction. What he said was guaranteed to piss the Uchiha off and he did not want to visit the Nightmare realm anytime soon again.
Part 2: Crimson Commotion
Itachi just stared at his breakfast after Kisame ran off. What the hell was his problem? Sure his eyesight may not be the greatest right now, but he did realize that Emi was a girl. Did Kisame think he was an idiot? And what was with all that blathering on about touching girls, and getting some. His personal life was none of Kisame's business. The more he thought about what the shark man said, the angrier he became. He stood up to chase after the man, when Sayuri and Shio came into the room. Sayuri was ever chipper, and Shio just looked pissed off. So Diedara must have been experimenting with his clay. Pein had ordered Hidan, Diedara, and himself to find out more about the three women. Which was infuriating. He didn't join this organization to play babysitter to a group of girls who apparently intended to ruin his plans. He didn't go through everything he's had to go through for it to all be spoiled in the end by a bunch of wannabe ninjas who keep getting lucky. Realizing he'd been standing in the same spot for quite a bit, Itachi took off in the direction of his room. While the girl was distracted, he'd go through her stuff, and find out the truth. Itachi passed by Hidan who was mumbling incoherently about Jasshin and if what "she" said was true.
Upon walking into his room, he was once again impressed by the tidiness. He looked over at all the weird boxes the woman had brought. Kneeling in front of them, he opened the first one. A large wooden one with a metal clasp of some sort, after unlocking it, he cautiously lifted the lid… the thing was jam-packed with poofy dresses. Itachi continued to go thru all the luggage, only finding more dresses and other clothing and weird accessories. When he got to the last box, he closed it twice as fast as he opened it… his face turned the color of his eyes. And no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't resist taking another peek. This box contained clothing of a different kind… the kind a man shouldn't be rifling through. It was full of Lace and Frills. Ruffles and bows. Mesh and Fishnet. It was 90% see through. And underneath it all were a few items, that someone who pretended to be a perfect lady should never possess… Itachi felt a drop of blood dribble from his nose. He gently closed the lid. Restacked the luggage, and quietly left the room. All thoughts of finding what the three women were up to, completely gone.
