I'm happy that I'm finished with this chapter. I'm single once again after breaking up an eight month relationship so that should explain the long wait. This is dedicated to all my readers enjoy...enjoy! Don't forget to give me some R&R..and no that's not rest and relaxation.
Tenten had showered, cleaning her body from the interactions of the nights' events. The man in doctor robes had clucked his tongue and took her temperature. They assumed the heightened temperature was because of a fever and Tenten had been on edge since.
It was all Deidara's fault that she had been so close to getting caught. His fault that hours later, walking through Skinagwa's streets, she still wanted him. It had a nagging hold on her, something she wouldn't have to deal with once back in the comfortable embrace of Konohagakure.
Things were starting to come to a close here and hopefully didn't come spiraling down. Kagino almost didn't let her go alone but with some hearty reassurances he finally did. She had a destination in mind but didn't know if she should go through with it.
The pharmacy was in plain view and it caused her to pause in her so-sure-steps. To get any sort of pregnancy preventer will be something solid that could be looked back on and recorded.
But he said anywhere right? Better safe than sorry. How the hell am I supposed to make this sort of decision anyway? I can just see how this goes down hill: Yeah Hokage-sama I can explain those condoms! I...didn't know they were in there! The enemy must have planted them so I didn't know! That'll go down just as smoothly as a box of lead would.
Lost in thought, as she has been prone to do as of late, she was grabbed and dragged into a back alley. Ready to attack she was stopped by an eagle mask and Anbu uniform.
"Tomi! What the hell are you doing?" When they were far enough he turned back to face her.
"Tomorrow is when we're leaving. I need to know what you told them to let you stay."
Figures there was something different about him. He's all business now.
"I told them that I had been stranded from my family during a ninja attack and that I didn't know where else I could go. They took me in after that and I think dropped most of their suspicions about me." Tomi nodded once and brought out a sketched map of the village.
"This is where the Daimyo lives, I ran into an Akatsuki member not too long ago and decided not to engage him." At the mention of Deidara, Tenten tensed up. Tomi noticed immediately and probably frowned behind the mask. "I don't want you to do anything rash, so tomorrow in the mid-afternoon I'll come to the mansion--"
A bird fluttered in the corner of her vision and Tenten turned to regard it. It was small and tan, it's eyes were black but something was wrong with it-- "Are you listening?" Tenten snapped back to attention.
"Sorry, so you're going to disguise yourself as an old man, claim to be my lost grandfather then whisk me away? Are you going to show me the disguise?" Tomi nodded and made the hand signs for a transformation jutsu."
"Remember every detail Tenten, if something is off when I get you don't leave with me. Assume it's an enemy ninja and ready yourself for an attack."
Even his voice is old, guess you got to be good at disguising everything when you're on dangerous spying missions.
She remembered every detail down to the dirty clothes and the grey almost white roots.
"You got it?"
"Yeah. What do I do until then?" Tomi turned and started to walk away, his voice was carried by the enclosed space.
"Act normal. It's not like you were planning anything rash were you?" At this Tenten was glad his back was turned. She was blushing and it wasn't helping that Deidara was fresh in her mind.
"No I was just going shopping." One look up told her many things: Tomi wasn't there and certainly wasn't listening. So her excuse was lost to him in the alley way. The bird was gone from the ledge and Tenten tried to recall if she heard the flapping of wings. She had not.
--
Instead of getting anything at the pharmacy Tenten headed out to some visitor sights. After the fourth statue honoring the current Daimyo Tenten labeling everything beyond that as useless. She didn't care for the tiptoing, underlying insults that politics were so popular with. She is a kunoichi suited and booted to do what she needed to in the name of duty.
Respecting Tsunade-sama for obvious reasons and she just didn't play the political game. Her walk back to the mansion was filled with the noticeable absence of her lovable teammates. She was missing the dynamic duo, hell even missing the ice cube!
The only comfort was that she'd be back in Konoha and see them soon. The rest of the day she'd spend with Kagino and relish the memories, and a temporary suspension of her life's duty.
--
Deidara was anxious and there was nothing else to be said for it. All of this lead down to a very important discovery: Bored did not suit him. Multiple times he used a clay bird to find some clue to the Daimyo's decision but only ended up with meaningless things.
Comments about the weather, clothes and nosey neighbors filtered over the microphone in the bird. One comment though caught his attention pausing the bird, Deidara listened in.
"...comes out of nowhere and suddenly Kagino-sama wants to marry her!"
"She is pretty but I don't think she's that attractive." Deidara zoomed the scope in and found two old biddies talking in front of a fruit stand. He was going to pass over the conversation, deem it as nothing but the next sentence stopped him easily.
"I know! I just hope it's just a rumor that Kagino-sama is going to propose to that Tenten girl!" The air left him in a second and something fierce and possessive had him losing his temper. Something he refused to look to closely at in hopes of not understanding it's origins. The headset was yanked off and hand signs were formed.
"Katsu!" The bird exploded the top of the stand, smashing the ripened fruit beneath it. Deidara didn't bother relishing the art of it but scoped out Tenten's chakra. She had suppressed it, hadn't used it in a while but Deidara homed in as if he had known where she was the entire time.
He sent the second bird after her, a spare microphone inserted in its' back. If being Sasori's partner taught him anything it was that you always had to bring a spare. This had been only a single painful lesson. Another one was that he should always bring a lot more clay. Losing both arms had taught him something along the way.
In his scope he found Tenten standing outside of a pharmacy looking quite hesitant. He turned away to see how far away his bird was and found her gone the second he returned his gaze. A bit of searching and he found her again but this time she wasn't alone.
He'd seen enough Anbu in his life to know that the eagle masked man was from Konoha. This led to some serious questions but Deidara would put money on a bet that said she was from Konoha. His bird landed on a ledge above their heads.
"...tomorrow in the mid-afternoon I'll come to the mansion and retrieve you. Are you listening?" The Anbu masked was familiar and Deidara shifted. He had been caught on the roof of the Daimyo's office earlier and for a brief moment he thought he would have to fight the eagle Anbu. Turns out the man backed down first then vanished.
"Sorry, so you're going to disguise yourself as an old man, claim to be my lost grandfather then whisk me away? Are you going to show me the disguise?"
"Remember every detail Tenten, if something is off when I get you don't leave with me. Assume it's an enemy ninja and ready yourself for an attack." Deidara clicked the shutter several times knowing that this information would come in handy soon. Every detail had to be exact because Tenten would be looking for flaws. He had no idea what he was planning but something big was forming and he was just inspired.
Deidara later on relaxed in his hotel room, giving an accurate meaning to the words sit and wait. He performed the transformation until it was flawless and found his work was completely done. Last time he was given first move and this time...Deidara was tempted to see how she'd counter.
Seduction, as all should know, is a double edged sword. Too bad that Tenten is balanced on the tip.
--
The sun rose as any other but Tenten hadn't slept very well. She had tossed and turned, her dreams invaded by a man she shouldn't have been even thinking of. She rose and showered, slipping into the bathroom as if she owned it. Her travel clothes had been cleaned, sowed and returned to her after she had gotten here.
Currently they were in one of the dressers along with some of the borrowed kimonos she wore. Her mind soon caught up with her body and she became aware of her surroundings. Staying here had been pleasant for her, there were so many people that you could never feel alone.
Breakfast was served around a formal table but on several occasions Kagino and her had snuck away to eat on the porch. Those were the times when she had to tread lightly, he would question her about her parents, village and anything else that came to mind.
Speaking of which..he was acting strangely last night and I can't remember him blushing before. Why would he be nervous around me now?
"Tenten deary, time to get dressed!" Ritualistically Tenten followed her newly acquired schedule. Which would diminish the minute she wasn't surrounded by so many servants. She liked the attention but after a while it just wasn't so exciting.
Back to that again? Oh well...here I come day!
With mental arms wide open, Tenten smiled when she didn't feel like it and spoke when she'd rather sigh.
Yep...this isn't my cup of tea..that's for sure.
--
Covers were kicked off and the sun tried but failed to breach the closed blinds. A groan escaped parted lips and Deidara did not want to leave the bed. His sleep had come to him with a handful of doubts thrown in.
Kunoichi were dangerous in their own right. Many would do anything to ensure the safety of their village...even sleep with their enemies. Deidara had reason to believe that Tenten was not only from Konoha but her mission was to bed him and then kill him.
It had happened before, unaware men having sex with women who would take an opening to stab them through their hearts. That was what the doubt was saying. She was here to kill him and he just hadn't figured it out yet. But there was another part of his mind which didn't believe a damn word.
Both times her expressions hid nothing from her, whether she was against a wall or in a bed there wasn't anything her face hid from him. But was it true? Was she hiding her true intentions from him? Was there something ulterior going on here?
One way to find out...an easy way at that.
He was going to do some actual work, the time for pleasure was done with. Tenten was going to answer his questions or find out how terrifying Akatsuki members can be.
--
"Do you like it here Tenten-san?" The day was turning out quite clear and active. Birds picked at worms, bees flew around flowers and even the horses were calm. She was glad to have agreed to this walk with Kagino. They crossed green grass to sit underneath a weeping willow, it's long branches hiding them from the sun and others.
"It's a friendly place, so much so that I feel welcomed here. It's really a great place to settle down." Tenten wanted to hit herself in the head for sounding so cheesy. Kagino got up to brush aside some of the branches and Tenten could see out and into the distance at the kitchen windows with it's occupants inside. Kagino pushed aside the branches and they clung together causing a break in the enclosure.
"I'm glad that you said that. All of it is true but this place is only as happy as it's residents. Tenten I'm so glad that you're here right now and there is something important I must ask of you." Kagino dropped to the ground his average eyes dead serious. For a minute Tenten didn't know what the hell was going on when he took her hands in his.
"Kagino-san what on earth..?" He silenced her and inhaled deeply.
"Tenten I must ask this of you for fear I'll never have the courage again. Will you--"
(BOOM!)
Both jumped at the loud explosion and the fire that came pouring from the shattered windows.
"Oh my god! Tenten it's coming from the kitchen!" Kagino was running towards the burning building and Tenten was right on his heels. A maid came running out and gripped Tenten's arm forcing her to turn back around.
"What's going on!" The maid looked extremely flustered as she continued into the opposite building.
"Your grandfather is here Tenten-san, he says it's urgent that you leave now."
Does she mean Tomi? Why do we have to leave now? It's only eleven o'clock. Has something horrible happened?
Unknown panic washed over her as she half-ran to the foyer. There near the entrance was her 'grandfather.' Nothing seemed out of place: Silver-grey roots, dirty clothes and the numerous amount of wrinkles on his sagging face.
"Tenten we have to leave and these kind people already packed up her clothes for me. You ready?" Tenten didn't have a reason to doubt that this wasn't Tomi. Everything was exact but something still didn't bode well for her.
"But what about Kagino?" The disguised Tomi scrunched his face and took her wrist in a decided grip. One tug, one step and they were out the door heading for the forest. The smell of burning wood and the sound of screams reached her ears but she could not turn back.
Briefly she wondered if this was what civilians felt, the helpless worry of what-ifs and oh-nos. The buildings were becoming scarcer and the tree line becoming more apparent.
"Tomi has something gone wrong?" He was silent only hurrying her along closer to their escape from whatever he was running from. "Tomi tell me! I have the right to know. I left Kagino back there and he could be seriously hurt!"
"He'll be fine." The tone was clipped, brusque and it left her questioning. They were in the trees but he still didn't slow down not one bit. Something was definitely wrong here. She yanked on her wrist but he refused to let it go.
"Let me GO Tomi! If there is a danger we have to face it." From behind she could see him shake his head.
"The Akatsuki member is looking for a fight and we don't want to be there when he finds one." At the mention of Deidara she easily matched his pace.
"Why didn't you say so then? Never mind just..what do we do if he comes after us?" There was a silence that filled the spaces between trees causing worry to rise.
"Then we'll do what we must to survive." And that was the end of that.
--
Deeper into the forest and disconnected from Tomi's grasp Tenten found her nervousness gone. Replaced with a sense that they were completely lost. Had they fled so fast that they didn't know which way was Konoha? Suddenly Tomi gripped her wrist and before she could question him she was eating his fist.
Stumbling back and rubbing her jaw Tenten readied herself to reprimand him only to find her back to the nearest tree. He had dropped the disguise but it was only then that Tenten noticed the difference in their eyes. This wasn't Tomi..his body pinned her to the tree knocking the very air from her lungs at the impact.
"Get off of me right now!" The man behind the plastic mask chuckled.
"It was too easy to get you away you know! I saw you talking to that Anbu yesterday and just knew you had found our location." Tenten jerked her head away from as the jutsu dispelled.
"You're--"
"That's right. Your Anbu friend figured I wasn't worth finishing off so he left me there to die. But not before clawing out my left eye and one of my ears." Indeed, stitches held together the skin on the left side of his face, where his features were removed. "I'm going to make that bastard pay but first I'll take my anger out on you."
A kunai was pulled from the pouch at his hip and she swung it upwards aiming for his neck. He moved to stop her and she changed direction, pushing the kunai through his shoulder instead. He elbowed her in the face slamming the back of her head into the trunk. Her vision spun but there was no way in hell she was passing out now.
"Stop it bastard! Don't fucking touch me!" At another time she'd worry about the effect Deidara's language was having on her. Now was not the best of times to become distracted. "Get off of me now!" He laughed again and it made her sick to the stomach. Before when she was pinned to the wall she had been helpless, not this time.
He was no Akatsuki member and she was not giving in, not to this asshole. She thrashed and kicked, fighting with everything she had. He was taller than her but not as tall as Deidara, stronger than her but not stronger than Deidara. This time she didn't stop herself from comparing him to the unpredictable blonde bombshell.
Her shirt ripped in the process but not all the way down and she wasn't going to let him get the idea of fixing that issue. He leaned forward to kiss her and she shook her head, diverting him. Searching a way to deter him she blurted out the thing she probably shouldn't have.
"I promised myself to someone else. You can't have me!" No she hadn't promised Deidara her body but there was no way she could take it back now. He pulled away and that black iris watched her, finally he spoke.
"Well that's too bad but after I'm done using you, he can have whatever remains." His lips descended and Tenten turned her head clenching her eyes shut when she felt them on her neck.
"No! GET OFF!" Her eyes opened and there was nothing that could have prepared her for her own reactions. Breath left her, her heart raced, her body responded in the most primal of ways. Blonde hair, blue eyes and decorated cloak with a black on red design. Those blue eyes drew her in and the all mighty rage turned his eyes into storm clouds. Breath came to her and she felt winded, suspended in the air and whispering one word that could write a novel of emotions.
"Deidara."
The man stopped and pulled away looking at her face before getting pissed off.
"Where the fuck are you looking bitch?" Then he too turned and immediately recognized a stronger opponent. Tenten didn't know why relief was filling her body when there were two evils currently in her company.
I don't think there is a lesser evil between two men who both want to rape me. Remember...you said YES. Fine one who wants to rape me and another who forcibly seduced me. My bad.
"Hey! I'd leave if I were you or else my men will kill you." That must have been the key word because six men jumped down from the trees and behind Deidara. The S-class missing nin didn't falter, his gaze was fixed on her and Tenten had never been more self-conscious. Not even during a side-by-side match with the Hokage's second apprentice Sakura.
His hands were shaking as he dug into his pouch and the men laughed at that.
"Look he's so scared he can't keep his hands steady." Raucous laughter filled the area but Tenten pushed against the stupid man.
No, he's shaking from rage. I got to get the fuck out of here. I don't know what the hell he's going to do but I'm not waiting around to see.
She got the man further away from her but not enough to escape with. The laughter increased at her predicament but she was to busy concentrating. She called her chakra to her hands and with enough force made him stumble back from the blow. Before she could get far his hand gripped her wrist holding her in place.
"Where you going girl I'm not--"
(BOOM!)
His head exploded in a grisly shower of blood, brains and bones. There was a silence as the body hit the floor. Quickly she wiped pieces of brain matter from her cheek knowing she'd puke if she didn't. Every eye was trained on Deidara as two butterflies flew from the mouths on his palms.
"Kill him!" It didn't matter. Deidara had never looked away from her and already the bombs blew apart individual men until there was nothing but discarded remains. Unlike Deidara, she was facing the mayhem, intestines and body parts splattered the surrounding grass, the crimson blood so bright against the green. Neither moved as the rage was still there and he was still shaking.
Funny...I was expecting my legs to give out about now. Where is Tomi? Is he hurt, injured could he possibly have been killed? Damn it! He was suppose to protect me..now I'm on my own with no one to help me but myself.
She glared at the man before her and gathered her courage amongst the dead. She had spoken too familiar with him, spoken like a lover would in the bedroom. But this was not a bedroom and he was not her lover. Whatever had happened it couldn't be helped and she couldn't risk her safety. Not for him..not for pleasure or a one night stand. She was stopping this right here, there'll be no repeat and she couldn't afford to lose.
"Akatsuki." Her one word brought her a straightened spine and dangerously blue eyes. It was spoken so coldly and she had the ice cube to thank for teaching her the tone.
"Kunoichi." One word expressed his disgust with everything. She was proud of what she was but he spat the title out as if it carried a horrible taste. His hate filled that word up and Tenten knew such overwhelming chakra couldn't be won against. Not alone and she was certainly alone on this one.
He lunged at her and the time for regrets was over with. No weapon was in his hand but she ducked the punch he threw. She flipped over one corpse and blocked a kick that, with enough chakra, could take off her head. Seeing an opening she thrust the kunai aiming, for what it was worth, at his neck.
Before contact though a punch was delivered to her stomach and she doubled over. Warm blood left her lips and she bit her tongue hard as his knee hit her face. The loud crack and tundering pain made it abundantly clear that her nose had been crushed beneath the attack. She flew back, her body bouncing twice until she regained her footing.
Sliding back she evaluated any options, blood filled her mouth and covered her chin and throat. She spat it out in favor of breathing through her mouth. Just then the bushes parted and dread pushed away logic.
"Tenten-san are you all right?" Kagino and eight foot soldiers broke through, one burly guard held Kagino back. Three stepped forward and Deidara's hands reached once more into his opened pouch. They were dead men now but she still tried.
"Run!" The first three exploded causing the others to step back. Tenten leapt towards her enemy. There was no time for rationality, no time to say to one's self...'Hey you know this could probably kill me.'Four more exploded and Kagino was left in utter shock.
Her hands closed around his blocking off the entrance to his bombs and keeping him from making the signs. She crossed her arms forcing him to do the same. All her chakra was in this but she still couldn't hold him for long.
"Run Kagino! Run now!" Deidara slammed backwards and she almost let him go. Kagino stumbled to his feet dumbly before turning tail and running. The mouths on his palms tore into her hands and in retaliation she bit his shoulder harshly.
There had been a bit of insanity in his expression and Tenten wondered if that's what Akatsuki did to a person. It'll take you in with the promise of power then shred you up leaving but tattered remains of what you were. He used her grip to break free and she barely dodged the elbow aimed at her face.
She leapt away from him but was still grazed by his well placed kick. Back met tree in one harsh blow and as she clenched her fists hot blood could be felt there. He glared at her and if she was a lesser person she would have withered under that look.
"I should have known. First me, then the rich boy, suddenly you and an Anbu member. I didn't think you'd get around so fast Kunoichi." There he went again with that hate filled word. Confusion filtered onto her face and his glare intensified.
What the hell is he talking about?
"Here I thought you had no ulterior motives but it seems I was wrong. You played the innocent role nicely I almost mistook you for a virgin, yeah." Her cheeks wanted to heat up but his words weren't fit for that kind of reaction.
"What?...What the hell are you talking about!" Seconds passed and he was there choking her, bringing her up to eye level and Tenten felt like she was dying.
"Don't play dumb with me! It's no wonder you let me do those things to you. Any reaction could be feigned I feel stupid just now realizing it. You're too weak to match me in a battle so you tried another way." He was choking her harder but something told her to be conscious for this one. Her nails dug into his wrist but he wouldn't budge.
"I don't...understand...you're not making...any.." He slammed her head on the back of the tree and released her. Weakly she slid to the base and watched him walk away.
"I should've known you were letting me take you to bed just so you could kill me, yeah. Using your body in order to find a weak spot." At this he gave her a disgusted look and passing out was the furthest thing from her mind. "That little trick isn't going to work on me. I'm not falling for something from a whore kunoichi, yeah."
"Whore?" The word seemed foreign on her tongue and it turned her insides to stone. Thousands of thoughts whirled within her mind and she could only grasp at several. He had called her a whore, told her she was weak but most importantly he seriously thought she'd demean herself in order to win a fight.
That hurt her deep down, it cut her open and mental guts spilled out. She wasn't strong compared to Sakura or Hinata. She had no bloodline, she wasn't an Uchiha..wasn't a Hyuga...wasn't a fucking Yamanaka. She didn't have special family jutsus...didn't have a fairly powerful teacher. She didn't have the extraordinary looks of other kunoichi. Didn't have the backing of a Hokage...or a prestigious family...or even a last name to call her own.
She wasn't a fucking prodigy and wasn't looked on as anything more than that girl. She wasn't fucking weak or whiny..she trained constantly, fought against those who opposed Konoha. She was overlooked, under-minded, cast out, looked down on, pitied but she was strong in her own fucking right. And this bastard..this fucking Akatsuki member, dare call her a whore!
Anger reared it's ugly head, an anger she had tried for years and years to dissipate. Anger at how useless her jutsu sometimes was. Anger at how some of the younger Chunin were far more valued then her. Anger at the lack of attention Neji had for her...she needed, craved his attentions. Years and years of mounted frustration broke apart her barriers and restraint was the furthest fucking thing from her mind.
She lashed out, ducked beneath his arm and tackled his ass to the ground. Two scythes pinned his legs down as she slammed them into the ground as well as two sais that kept his arms grounded. She wasn't even thinking rationally as one hand closed around his neck and the other punched.
Again and again her arm shot back only to surge forward to strike his welting cheek. She zeroed in on his face but everything else was shit.
"I'm not a fucking whore! You were the one to come after me! I never even been with a man before! I'm not weak asshole, even if I was I'd fight to get stronger! I'd NEVER lower my standards to succeed." Her punches continued and the hand choking him was alternating between ripping his shirt and scratching his shoulder.
There was a blank on her thoughts and Tenten wondered if this was what he had felt. That overwhelming urge to just fight, tear it all out causing her to continue.
"You don't even know what it's like to be just-a-little good. You don't what it's like to be fucking over looked or under-minded. Pretty but never fucking beautiful. Goddamn you!!" Her voice was cracking, her vision was blurring and idly she wondered why that was. Why was he laying there and taking this? Why didn't he try to stop her?
She stopped her fist just as it reared back and noticed his expression. Those blank features divulged nothing of his thoughts and it gave her a painful reminder of Neji. Had he held that facial expression the entire time? Looking so goddamned unconcerned with her episode?
She slammed her fist into the dirt right next to his face. Blood was on the ground, his face and coming up from his cheek. The throbbing of her bloodied fist couldn't bring her back to her senses. She leaned closer, her tears and blood dripping onto his face mingling with his blood.
"He's got that same fucking expression, always wears it just like you are now." Her hand was squeezing his throat and she could only imagine how wild her appearance was at the moment. "I'm sick of looking at your impassive face." A smile spread his lips and it only pissed her off more. "What are you laughing at?"
"You...I've said those words before but I've never seen anyone breakdown quite like you. There's something wild, untamed and positively intriguing when you're angered so much. That and I don't think I've met anyone who has ever looked so beaten up but still insanely attractive, yeah."
Some life moved his facial features wiping away any traces of that unnameable rage. Spent beyond belief, both physically and mentally, Tenten moved her hands to his shoulder and dropped her head on his torso.
"Why am I attracted to some crazy guy?" Deidara lifted his right hand the sai rocked out of it's tight spot. Tenten didn't bother reacting when he reached across her back and pulled out her second sai. A red print in the shape of her hand was around his neck and bleeding scratches were up and down his shoulder.
"I'm not just any crazy guy love...I'm an Akatsuki member, yeah." Her fingers curled in his shirt as one of his arms held her to him when he sat up. Her face was buried in his chest but it didn't take a genius to figure out what he was doing. When his ankle bonds were gone Tenten could feel him laying her on her back.
He pulled away, hovering over her and just examining every detail. She didn't feel the need for anything as her wounds took her concentration away. Having a crushed nose was no fun at all..unless of course you were some masochist but that's beside the point.
A gentle hand smoothed out the skin on one cheek, close but not enough to hurt her nose. Her hand was lifted, his eyes taking in the torn knuckles. Finally fed up with all the touching Tenten lifted her hand, brushing the unhurt side of his cheek.
"Your nose is broken and your knuckles have a good chance of getting infected. You should be more careful you know, yeah." She gave a half-assed shrug from her position, tired with the world.
"I lost control but I wasn't the only one. You shouldn't assume such brash things and then charge headlong into everything." He tensed momentarily his blue eyes the calm sky again, a finger traced her lips wiping the blood away.
"I'm sorry." Another half-assed shrug was given before a ragged sigh passed her lips.
"Happens..this is the shinobi life." He was silent bringing his lips to hers and brushing them in apology. She didn't respond but neither did she pull away, there was nothing she wanted but to sleep. His far more honed senses told him what was coming.
"Your Anbu..friend is coming closer, yeah."
"...What will you do?" Deidara looked down at her...she was worse for wear and he knew it would be simple business to just take her with him.
"We'll meet again?" He made it sound like a question making Tenten half cough and half laugh.
"You'd hunt me down...remember? What choice left is there?" Feeling the chakra coming closer, he brushed his lips across hers closing them until the next time they met.
"I meant what I said yeah." Her eyes closed as the warmth of his body vanished. In the distance she could hear someone yelling her name but she wasn't quite sure, rest was more important.
