Hey there everybody! I'm back, no duh. Since last chapter wasn't really a chapter, I guess I'll write more in this one for yah. Yes, yes, I'm so kind.
Disclaimer: I own NOTHING!
Chapter eight, yah?
It was soon decided (By Kisame, who wanted some peace and quiet from the arguing) that Hinata would ride in the mysterious IT.
"But why, Kisame-san?"
"Because what is she uses Gentle fist on you?"
"It would be fairly painful for Tobi…"
"More like VERY painful."
Score two for Deidara. So, at the moment, Tobi was gently untying her while humming a cheery little tune. Hinata would have pointed out that thanks to Kisame's sword, she didn't have enough chakra to do anything beyond activating her blood line limit for a short period of time, never mind attacking with her family's fighting style, but she was curious, what was this It? Outside, Deidara was busy readying IT, and Kisame was busy packing up anything they where bringing with them, and destroying everything they where not, as to hide all evidence of being there. This didn't help Hinata feel any more faith in the people trying to find her.
"There, all done." The masked ninja broke her chain of thoughts, dragging her back into reality. He pulled her up from the wall, helping her to stand with great care. He then tied her wrists together loosely, but intricately, behind her back, removing the gag from her mouth. Kisame straightened out also, leading them out of the cave that had been their hideout.
"Three days goes by fast, eh? I hope Leader-sama doesn't mind that we've been gone for two extra days." He said with a shark-like grin and a sigh.
'Three days?!' She gasped. She had only woken up TODAY! Had she seriously been out for two whole days?
Aloud gurgling noise answered her silent question. "Hey Hyuuga-san, are you hungry?" Tobi asked. Hinata shook her head in denial, but the gurgling persisted, making her flush in embarrassment. Kisame rummaged through his pack, withdrawing an apple. He tossed it to Tobi, who caught it while laughing. He held it to Hinata's lips, since she couldn't take it herself.
"Here you go, Hyuuga-san." He said happily. With the grace of a feral elephant, she chomped down on the fruit, devouring it in moments.
"…" Kisame just stared at her with a blank expression. Tobi was laughing hard, making Hinata realize how desperate she must have looked. She flushed a bright red.
"Ne ne Hyuuga-san! You must have been really hungry!" Tobi said between gasps for air, trying to control his laughter. Her gaze dropped to the ground, her face hitting an even brighter shade of red.
"You want some more?" The blue nin asked. Her stomach answered for her, another loud rumbling mixed in with more of Tobi's snickering made her want to feint from the embarrassment.
Kisame threw the peach at Tobi, expecting him to catch it, but Tobi was to busy trying not to laugh to even realize that the fruit had been thrown at him. It hit him roughly on the head, forcing him to pitch forward since it had caught him off balance. Hinata eyes widened, realizing what was going to happen before it did. Tobi came crashing onto the heiress, and since he was bigger, he easily threw her off balance as well. But instead of falling down, Hinata was pushed and pinned against this huge…something. Tobi's masked bumped harshly into her face, earning a grunt of surprised pain from both of them. His gloved hands where on either side of her face, his body was pressed firmly against hers. If it wasn't for the mask…they would be kissing….
Hinata let out a squeak, her face hitting super nova. "Break it up you two, I like my dinner where it is, yah." A familiar voice came from behind her. Tobi immediately leapt ten feet away from her, hiding behind Kisame and twiddling his thumbs. Hinata turned around, her mouth doing the gasping-fish-face-thing again. "No thanks, just like a regular princess, yah." He rolled his eyes.
The opal eyed heiress was too busy looking at IT to hear Deidara. IT was a large, beigeish pelican-looking bird, and Deidara was perched upon ITS back. "W…What…?" She stumbled, eyes wide.
Deidara almost laughed. She was so cute with her big, pale eyes wide, her dark locks long, and curved slightly so it framed her face, her nose was slightly flared, and her lips…lets just not get into that topic, alright. "I said 'no thanks, just like a regular princess', yah. I saved you from falling to the ground with Tobi on top of you, possibly breaking your wrists, yah." He repeated and explained, closing his eyes and crossing his arms in mock annoyance.
"Thank you." Deidara's eyes flew open, meeting the pearl ones, which immediately dropped to look away. The reply had been so quiet; Deidara had to ask himself if he had really heard what he thought he heard.
"Okay, this is getting mushy, just get her to eat the peach and then we can go already." Kisame interrupted, picking up the peach, and tossed it at Deidara, who caught it in a gloved hand, and dusted it off.
'Both Deidara and Tobi are wearing gloves…' She thought, hungrily looking at the peach in his hand. She chowed down again as Deidara held the peach out for her to eat, this time more gracefully.
Deidara couldn't help but to watch as she licked the juices from the bitten peach, so it wouldn't go down her chin. He gulped a little, throwing the pit into the forest.
"Alright, time to get in, yah." He hopped off the bird thing, and turned to a flushed Hinata.
"A...Anno…" She fidgeted behind her back, unable to ask a very important question. She looked anywhere, and everywhere, besides Deidara, who in turn was looking at Hinata's face with a blond eyebrow raised. "Anno…" She gulped, her face returning back to its usual bright red state.
"I don't know what 'Anno' means, princess, yah." He replied. Then Tobi rescued her from further embarrassment, untying her bindings quickly.
"Five minutes before Tobi hunts you down, okay?" He asked. She gave a swift nod, sprinting into the forest, and it was Deidara's turn to gape like a fish.
"Tobi, WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO THAT FOR?!" Deidara yelled, chasing Tobi around in circles, attempting to strangle him.
"You can't tell me that Deidara-senpai didn't realize it!" Tobi yelled over his shoulder, hiding behind Kisame. Deidara stopped running, looking confused.
"What did I miss, yah?"
"Hyuuga-san has been in a cave for the last three days. She's eaten, and drank. What OTHER natural urge do we have?" Tobi asked. Deidara flushed, and slumped against the pelican with a scowl on his face.
"Baka…yah."
