Spring Break wasn't much of a break for our unfortunate girl. With only a limited number of people aloud to go, two people, six total, from each group were picked, a girl and a guy. From Akatsuki, Tobi and Konan were chosen to go. From Team Hebi, Karin and Sasuke, after him and the other two boys fighting it out, went as well. Finally, from DeathNote, L and Misa chose as well.

This plan was ruined when Mello pointed out that the rest could always stake out from a distance. Payton was sure to steal his chocolate for the next week.

The ride up was pretty eventful. Payton had her heart monitor on for this week as well so it was now visible on her shirt so the little kids wouldn't tug on it or pull it off. At first, nearly everyone, aside from Payton, was back asleep as soon as they hit the road. Being all juniors and seniors, some had to choose to be pushed down because of numbers at the small school, they got to ride with Cheslea and Payton. Sasuke, the only other one still awake as well because the others were deciding on resting when they could get the chance, watched as Payton stared out the window with an expressionless face. This was her true face more than half the time, he has found. She had become pretty good at doing the emotions at will and sometimes it even looked like she was on auto pilot. She would of made a great ninja in his world, he had decided a long time ago.

Itachi, having to sit beside his little brother, opened his eyes slightly, making Sasuke glare at him as if that's what he had been doing the entire time. Having coincidentally chosen the same last names for their aliases, they had to pretend to be loving brothers. Itachi secretly was enjoying it again but Sasuke seemed to die a little inside each time he had to hug him for something, a fact that Payton and Cheslea didn't seem to mind at all.

"Something wrong…?" Itachi asked in a low tone.

"Why would I tell you?" he growled back clenching his hands.

"Would you rather tell the only other person on the bus that's awake?" Itachi had a point since it was about the girl he was staring at.

He didn't answer him just glared at the seat in front of him. Itachi smirked a little and laid his head back against the window, closing his eyes once more. Sasuke considered strangling him.

Tuesday was when the day began to be troublesome for her. Being the school's photography representative, Payton had to walk around taking pictures as she had done at the other school yesterday. This involved a lot of stairs on her part and then the day before, she had been doing a lot of hard yard work after people had made unwanted comments about her getting the easy way out by taking pictures.

She didn't feel all too bad so when they were taken to the Crown Candy after their work was done for the day at the schools, she decided to order a milkshake even though she was lactose intolerant just a little. She ended up drinking nearly the whole thing and soon laid her head down as to settle her stomach.

'Sean' started shaking her slightly since they had been asked to move since they had finished. Cheslea stopped seeing that the brunette wasn't moving but was breathing softly.

Soon, three different nurses who had happened to be there were over there, trying to ease the girl into consciousness.

"Call 911" one stated as Payton finally started to sit up, her face pale and her eyes a bit foggy. Itachi and Konan froze a bit. This was the first time the Akatsuki had witnessed one of her fainting spells and it sparked small fear and worry for her as they had people give her room since two of the nurses had been leaning over the booths.

"I'm fine…" she mumbled, holding her head slightly. The retired nurse, who had made her way through, shook her head commenting that she still needed the check over as she put a cool wet towel on her, dabbing it. Cheslea and the stalkers gathered her things, Misa having to end up holding it because Cheslea was crying already. Sarah hadn't even noticed even after the countless times of people calling her name. Nathan lost his appetite and just stared in front of him.

The ambulances arrived and she was answering their questions slowly, following the nurse's advice of breathing slow. It made her very nauseous though, unfortunately.

After freaking out her mother with the paramedics calling, she was released and taken to the St. Louis arch, the group's destination for the day. She however wasn't allowed to go up again. She instead chose to go into the museum with Cheslea and Nathan and the stalkers, Sarah leaving with Daniel yet again. Payton laughed and pushed 'Sean' and 'Adam' in front of stuffed bear.

"Pretend you're saving your brother from the vicious bear!" she ordered 'Sean' making Nathan chuckle and Cheslea laugh at the irony. Sasuke glared at Itachi as he smirked slightly and stood there.

Payton laughed and snapped the photo and stated as she waited for the preview to come up, "I will always laugh at this photo knowing the irony of it." She looked down at the photo and stared at it as the others turned to look at something. She must of hit her head hard on the table because she was seeing anime ghosts in her pictures.

In between, the two brothers forcing expressions on their faces that satisfied the hurting girl, was Sebastian from Black Butler(since I can't for the life of me remember the real name XD) staring back at her. He disappeared after he slowly smiled back at her.

Payton felt a chill going down her back. This was the LAST thing she needed. She followed the other people and acted as if nothing had happened. If only it were that easy. When she kept taking pictures it seemed like people from that anime kept showing up. When she was done, she sighed, wondering if she should even continue with it now after this.

The City Museum, a place where Payton had fun…but also had no fun. She scaled the stairs to the ten story slide with Nathan and Sasuke, the others elsewhere, having lost each other in the endless maze of the hand-made art. Payton stopped a few times and Nathan offered to carry her a few times, her refusing with laughter. As soon as they got up there, Payton cursed up a storm reading the sign that stated that if you were in poor health, you shouldn't do it. "One of you go and get me a video of it." Nathan took the camera after she set it up for him and turned with Sasuke to walk back down the stairs. Seeing that Payton was out of breath and sweating already, Sasuke didn't give her time object. He picked her up in his arms and looked around, calculating before pushing her face into his shoulder and jumping down between the wall and the stairs, a blur to anyone but Itachi who had been going to meet them up there. He jumped over and followed his brother down. As soon as they landed, Payton shook slightly, the change in the altitude too fast for her to handle.

"Foolish little brother…that was just the same as if she had gone down the slide," Itachi stated as he helped set her down on her feet and then to a sitting position.

"she's ok isn't she," he said bluntly, not interested in being reprimanded by his traitor brother.

After getting her water and having her nerves calm down, they met back up with Nathan and she only preceded to knock herself out in a maze that got smaller as you went in it. She got herself out and made it a small ways before she sat on the stairs, holding her head, tears starting. She felt like crap for doing this to everyone…she just wanted to stay in the dorms and wait for slow death of anime stress.

Mr. G happened to be walking by and they went through something again, without the paramedics. Nathan had finally been given a reason to put his coat on her, it engulfing her completely, a fact that she pointed out later as a joke. By the end of the City Museum, Payton was engulfed with several different jackets.

"She has no luck…" Deidara stated a solemn look on his face. The Akatsuki had, in all their ninjaing years, never been as scared. The rest of Death Note looked up from their surveillance at the black clad ninjas sitting together. The lot of them were not talking since the candy store and some were still out taking shifts in following behind. The 'watch-dog' as Juugo had become known was being held up by Suigetsu so he wouldn't blow their cover.

"It was worse last year," Near stated, stacking more dice as he did his signature hair twirl.

"…How long will she have to deal with us…" Sasori stated in a monotone voice.

The question hung in the air like the scent of manure. It was a stinky truth that they just might never return to their lives. It was stuck to them that the longer they stayed, more anime was threatening to come into her life.

"we have to work on a solution and soon…"

\m/

Payton unpacked her things slowly once she was home and rested again. She got to take her monitor off on Monday so she was happy about that. She was afraid as she uploaded the pictures from the trip and sighed with immense relief when no anime showed up on the screen.

Suddenly the world around her broke apart and she scream as she fell into blackness. She opened her eyes slowly, feeling sunlight…a lot of it. She sat up and her eyes widened seeing that she was all see through and junk. She got up and turned finding herself face to face with a big huge bear. It stood there staring straight ahead, Payton backing away slowly. The next thing that happened would scar her for life.

The bear walked through her. She was only an image…that no one could see.

She sighed and tried to figure out where she had been flung. As she walked through the forest it opened into the Leaf Village.

Correction…now Payton would be scarred for life…

Yeahhhhh this is it for now. School is closing so I think this will too…maybe cough cough

Ooooh~ what's going to happen with Payton? Why is she in Naruto? What happened with unfinished milkshake?

Well…the milkshake was paid for and thrown away…the rest you will have to find out Next time!

-Gaara-Rulezzz (ie Payton)
