Chapter 10: The One-Tail Racoon

Two and a half year later

"Hey, any idea what's today's meeting for? It's been a long time since we were ordered to be at the meeting at all cost." Regina asked around.

"No idea, most probably he has an important thing to announce or address." Jonathan replied.

Pein came into the room after everybody had gathered and took their positions.

"The reason I've called you all here is because it is time to gather the tail demon." Pein said seriously. No one said anything waiting for Pein instructions...

"Yeah! We finally get to meet the tail demons!" Jonathan jumped up and down excitedly. His other siblings looked at him, sighed and shook their head. It's such an embarrassment to be related to him.

"Stop it." Kakuzu ordered Jonathan. He had been teaching Jonathan for a few years now and totally understands Jonathan and could predict well his actions. He still hasn't mature much compared to his sisters.

Jonathan then realised that he had just done something inappropriate and murmured a sorry.

"We'll be going after the one-tail demon first. For this mission Sasori and Deidara will be going." Pein instructed.

"Can we go? Can we go? Can we go?" Jonathan waved his hands up in the air frantically.

"If I say yes will you keep your mouth shut?" Pein tolerated Jonathan with his not-so-much-left patience.

"YES!" Jonathan shouted back in response.

"Well, fine then, the three of you can follow along," Pein allowed.

"Keep your mouth shut and get lost." Pein added just as Jonathan was about to open his mouth to say 'Thank you'.

Without making any noise, Jonathan mouthed the words 'thank you' and saluted to Pein before running out of the room to prepare. Regina and Rebecca looked at their brother then at each other and shook their head. Their brother never ever learns how to behave appropriately in front of Pein.

In their room, the three siblings are preparing their weapons and everything they need for this mission.

"Jon, grow up and stop acting like that in future. How many times do I have to tell you that?" Regina asked.

"One thousand two hundred and twenty two times." Jonathan replied happily.

"Oh my gosh." Regina slapped her forehead and ignored Jonathan.

"Why did you even bother?" Rebecca added.

"Are you all ready? Let's go meet Deidara and Sasori now." Regina was at the door waiting for the other two.

"Yes, let's go now." Jonathan and Rebecca said in unison. "I'm so excited." Jonathan added grinning from ear to ear.

At the entrance

"Please for god sake, Do Not Ever irritate Deidara. He still hasn't fully forgive you for that incident years ago." Kakuzu reminded Jonathan.

"It wasn't my fault!" Jonathan shouted. "I was framed! Really!"

"Well I believe. But the thing is that he doesn't." Kakuzu said.

"...fine." Jonathan gave up defending himself.

"Alright, take care of yourself and remember my words, don't-"

"Irritate Deidara. I get it." Jonathan finished the sentence for Kakuzu.

At the Hidden Village of Sand

Deidara was immersed in the making of a huge clay bird.

"Late you'll be going with Deidara to get the one-tail demon. We'll be waiting for you out here." Sasori instructed Jonathan.

"...me?" Jonathan asked.

"Ya, you got a problem with that?" Sasori asked.

"I don't want to go with him un." Deidara protested.

"Stop being so childish the two of you. Especially you, Deidara. You're much older than him and much more mature. Just let him be." Sasori reprimanded Deidara.

"Why are you scolding me un?" Deidara stared at Sasori.

"I'm not." Sasori refuse to admit.

They continued this for a long while before they realised that they had wasted too much time.

"It's decided, I'm not going with you. Jonathan will be going with you." Sasori dug his heel into the ground.

"..." Deidara refused to reply and got up the bird.

"..."Jonathan quietly get up the bird.

After the fight

Jonathan and Deidara returns at dawn the next day with Gaara unconscious carried Deidara's clay bird.

"Hi, Jon. Welcome back. You've sure know how to take your time." Regina said.

"It was difficult! Not as easy as it seems okay..." Jonathan complained. "I'm so tired and hungry."

"What exactly happen?"

"Oh nothing much, all that happened was we got chased by sands, Deidara almost lost his arm and he almost blew up the whole village and that I saved Deidara's arm from being ripped off by Gaara."

"And that took you the whole day?"

"Yep!" Jonathan replied happily.

"Let's just hurry get back to the headquarters. We're going to have some company soon." Sasori warned.

"Yes sir!" They prepared to leave.

Midway back to the headquarters they were stopped by Kankurou.

"Give me back Gaara." Kankurou commanded.

"No." Regina, Jonathan and Rebecca shouted in unison.

"Leave first with Gaara and the three kids." Sasori ordered.

Deidara nodded in response and hurried the clay bird along with three siblings.

On the clay bird, Jonathan started singing, "Kankurou the kangaroo go boing boing boing. Kankurou the kangaroo go boing boing boing." He continued singing while everybody else sweatdrop.

Kankurou pretended not to hear that and ignored Jonathan. He attacked Sasori with his weapon puppets.

A fight begins and ended very quickly as Sasori destroyed all of Kankurou's puppets.

On the other hand, a group of ninjas came and blocked Deidara's way.

"Kill every one of them here and ensure that none of them live un." Deidara ordered the three siblings.

"What do we look like? Your dogs?" Jonathan complained.

"Stop complaining. Just do it. I'm your sempai." Deidara shouted furiously.

The three siblings jumped out the clay bird and attacked straight at the group of ninja while Deidara left first. But because the group of ninjas were not difficult to handle, they managed to kill them all within a short time.

Sasori and the three siblings managed to catch up with Deidara and joined him went back the headquarters.

"Well done on getting Gaara." A hologram of Pein said.

"Ooo...the rainbow appeared again." Rebecca whispered.

"Alright let's not waste anymore time and get started." Pein instructed.

"What are we supposed to do?" Regina asked.

"Guard the place while we're at work." Pein summoned a statue and more holograms appeared.

"Yes sir!" The said in unison.

Three days later

"We've finally done getting the demon out." Pein said.

"Yippee! It's finally over." Jonathan rejoiced after guarding the place for three days consecutively.

"We'll now wait for Naruto to appear." Sasori and Deidara said.

When the ninjas arrived

Deidara created the clay bird again and it swallowed Gaara. Regina climbed up the clay bird with Deidara and they flew away together. The group of ninjas Kakashi, Naruto, Sakura and Chiyo split themselves and Kakashi and Naruto went after Deidara.

Sasori and the others stayed behind with Sakura and Chiyo. Chiyo and Sasori started fighting each other with puppets and Sakura was used as Chiyo's puppet. Sakura was poisoned by Sasori's puppet. She took out the antidote and injects it into her body and Chiyo's body which can fight against the poison for three minutes.

Chiyo tried to stab her grandson in the heart multiple times but couldn't because every time she attempted Jonathan and Rebecca would block her attack and force her backwards away from Sasori.

In the end Chiyo and Sakura was heavily poisoned and breathing faintly, they couldn't move. Sasori was panting while looking down at Chiyo and Sakura. Seeing that they weren't moving nor were they 'breathing', he assumed that they were dead and he ordered Jonathan and Rebecca to leave.

While at Deidara's side, Kakashi and Naruto were still chasing after Deidara and Regina. When Kakashi spotted Deidara, Kakashi uses his Mangekyou Sharingan and focused on Deidara. Without being noticed, Regina uses Goukakyuu no Jutsu cancelling Kakashi's Kamui.

Naruto uses Rasengan on the clay bird, cutting the head off. The clay bird drops to the ground and Naruto carried the bird's head away onto a tree with Kakashi. They started searching for Gaara inside the bird's mouth.

When the clay bird dropped onto the floor, Deidara and Regina met Rebecca, Jonathan and Sasori. They went back to meet the other Akatsuki.
