Around the time my plate was empty everyone began to dissipate from the room.
I stood as quickly as they were gone and walked swiftly over to the immensely high stack of dishes. I didn't really have to wash them. But I felt I needed to and began to clean.
I know it's really weird and but cleaning is just one of those things that just helps me ease into a calmer mood.
My thoughts drift out like they used to and I think of my old friends… and of the guy of which I wrecked with.
I flinch at this thought and nearly drop the plate in my panic. What had happened to him? Was he okay? Was he… the 'd' word…?
This was the cause behind another flinch. What if I was the 'd' word? I mean… I could be in the after life or something… Maybe I was dead?
I felt a hand on my shoulder and jerk around in a complete circle to face the coming member of Akatsuki.
Tobi, as I just now realize, is a full foot taller than me. And I am pretty tall.
He is knelt over just enough so our heads are closer to the same height.
One of his gloved hands rests on my shoulder and his other is positioned on his hip like a girl.
He sighs, "Morgan-chan works too much!"
I flash him a bold smile I place the last clean plate into the cabinet and step around him and from the confines of the kitchen.
I wonder mutely, "What do the Akatsuki do when they aren't on missions anyway?"
Of course my fangirlism kicked in and I was swiftly set on my way through the random hallways.
After nearly twenty minutes of said wandering and seven dead ends I found the living room.
To my astonishment, it looked NOTHING like what all the comics on the internet thought it would.
The wall beside the door was covered in a plasma TV with an entire tower of DVD's in the corner. A stereo system as big as a car crouches near the left wall.
CDs litter the floor with open cases and revealed discs in plain sight.
A curved black couch leans in on the back wall where they could clearly see the TV and hear the music if wanted. I noticed it was big enough to seat all of the organization comfortably… though I might tilt the scale a bit…
An actual pool table was set up in the last open corner off to the side where they could have a bit of peace.
A small coffee "stool" sat in front of the couch. Two small desks with lamps sat at the ends of the couch like bookends, books, magazines, and pens littered around.
I gaze around the room in complete and utter awe.
No wonder the Akatsuki were in need of money… They lived like KINGS.
I whipped the drool from my chin and gaped on.
It was Deidara who walked out of a joining hallway and spotted me. "What the heck are you staring at Hidori?"
I snapped out of it and walked past him to the stereo.
I sucked up the tears and knelt down to the disks.
Music… was a very important part of my life… *Cough. Obsession. Cough.*
Hidan was doing the same but I ignored him.
His eyes watched me as I tenderly picked up each disk and read what it was…
I wasn't sure but my face was most likely quite a sight.
The disk I placed in was loud… and I didn't know the singer or band…
Hidan asked, "What's with the tears?"
I cooed in happiness, "YOUR BASE ROCKS!"
I was over consumed with emotions as I tackled Hidan over and squealed like a little girl.
I mean… if you suddenly had access to four hundred CD's with twenty songs each… of which were 100% new to you… you'd be pretty excited right?
He was struggling to get loose and Deidara was roaring for me to 'behave'.
I jumped away just as the angry Hidan stood.
I was too happy to be afraid and as Itachi ran in the room and another impulse of happiness passed. I jumped up and into him before swinging myself around and gripping onto his back to hide myself.
The music changed and I laughed.
Why in the word was I so HAPPY? This just didn't make SENSE.
I suddenly realized and turned from the awesomeness of the living room to find a certain very tall masked man/child.
Tobi was found walking out the living room as I exited.
"Tobi…"
"Morgan-chan!"
"Tobi…"
"What Morgan-chan?"
"Tobi."
"Morgan-chan?"
"Tobi!"
"Wh-what Morgan-chan?"
"TOBI," I screamed, "WHAT DID YOU PUT IN MY FOOD?"
He looked confused as he scratched the top of his head.
"Pepper?" he asked.
I frowned and demanded, "You put some kind of meds in my food didn't you!"
Tobi frowned, "Nope! Deidara did though… but he said it was to make you happy… so we let him…"
I roared, "NOT THIS KIND OF HAPPY! I'M EFING HIGH!"
Tobi flinched back. "You're not now."
I groaned at the flow of chakra through me.
Holy crap I was Po'd off.
The chakra had burnt off the drug and now I was just mad.
Wait a sec… I was mad at Tobi… and Tobi was really… Madara.
I suddenly froze what I was doing. I spun on my heel and walked away.
Not good… he was watching me… not good… he wasn't leaving… not good… he had seen my fear… not good…
~two hours, 134 dead ends, 5 pit traps, and 9000 doors later…~
I find mine and Itachi's room. Well… it was still technically Dei, Ita, and mine's but… hey… two beds and three people make me a little nervous… so man number blond was reissued to the couch.
I opened the door and saw Itachi sitting on his bed.
I groaned and stepped in before face planting into the floor.
I groaned and he asked, "Where were you?"
I answered, "Lost."
He sighs and tosses a pillow at me.
"Remember… left at the kitchen and a right after five doors. Second on the right… next left and door straight ahead… that's here."
I groaned and kept my face in the floor. "I hate these stupid halls…"
Itachi sighed and answered, "Then just look at the ceiling… Every hall colored with blue tile leads to the kitchen. Every red leads to the living room. Green takes you to the resident wing where we are."
I looked up and sounded my frustration for not realizing this sooner.
He just went back to reading his book.
I was pretty sure but I remember falling asleep on the floor… right?
…
I woke up to the sounds of five voices right above me.
I opened my orbs to find a set of blue, purple, green, black, and red eyes looking down at me.
Abruptly I sat up and gawked around.
I was in my bed staring at Deidara, Hidan, Kakuzu, Kisame, and Itachi.
Hidan stated, "We're watching movies. You in?"
I frowned, "Which one?"
Kisame muttered, "Today is Itachi's pick so most likely an action one…"
I gleam… movies with the Akatsuki… never expected that to happen!
