Next chapter peoples! How come no one reviews anymore? That makes me sad...
Deidara woke up the next morning and looked over into Suki's bed. It was empty.
Wonder where she went un? He wondered. Then again, why should he care. She only thought of him as a friend anyway. He slumped out of bed and walked downstairs groggily. He passed by Musoka in the hallway.
"Morning un." He yawned. Musoka buried her face in her hands and sobbed.
Geez, what's her problem un?
*************************************************************************************Musoka passed everyone without saying a word. She was tied up all night with Hidan. Hidan. Musoka shuddered at the thought of him. She remembered everything he did to her last night. Every. Little. Thing. She put her hand on her neck to hide the hicky he gave her. Tears rolled down her face. He did as he said, stripping her down piece by piece, until she was completely naked. She could still feel in hands, feeling their way around her body, and how his tongue slithered everywhere. Everywhere. She had never been so molested and used ever in her life. And Daichi. Poor Daichi. He was gone forever. She kept seeing flashes of his death play in her mind and in her eyes over and over again, hearing the cracking of his bones and his moans as the blood spewed out of his scrawny body. The scrawny boy she loved was gone.
How can I go one? She shook her head. I have too. I cannot let Hidan do to Suki what he did to Daichi. Ever.
"Musoka-chan! Tobi thought you had disappeared for a moment when you weren't in your bed this morning!" Tobi said, running up behind her and giving Musoka a tight squeeze. Musoka pushed him away, afraid of his touch.
"Oh Tobi. You scared me for a second…"
"Yeah, Tobi does that a lot! Aren't you coming to eat breakfast? Tobi saved you a seat!"
"Uh, yeah, be right there Tobi…"
The breakfast table was unusually quiet that morning. No obnoxious noises, no cursing, not even a laugh. Pein looked around, wondering what the hell was wrong with them. Hidan seemed to be perfectly happy, but was quiet. Musoka was glaring at him furiously. Deidara looked more depressed the Itachi, who was shifting his gaze over to Musoka a couple of times.
"Does anyone know where Suki is? Deidara?" Pein asked, looking at the emo blonde. He shrugged his shoulders. Pein was about to ask again when the front door opened. He heard a girl happily humming, and a faint mew. Deidara looked over, then looked back down as Suki walked in holding a blanket.
"Morning!" she said happily. Everyone was looking at the blanket in her hands, except for Deidara, who was looking at her sadly.
How can she possibly think we are friends? I freaking kissed her out of the blue in a bathroom un!
"Uh, Suki?" Pein asked. Suki looked at him.
"Yeah?"
"Um, what is in the blanket?" Suki smiled, unfolding the blanket. Musoka looked at the creature inside of it- a slender silver cat, it's piercing blue eyes looking around at the Akatsuki.
"Mizu?" Musoka said aloud. The cat meowed, responding to the familiar sound.
" A CAT!" Kisame shrieked, racing away as fast as he could. Pein sighed.
"I probably forgot to mention he was afraid of cats." Pein muttered.
"I get his bacon." Itachi said, taking the food off of Kisame's plate.
"Wait, did you bring a cat here?" Zetsu asked. Suki shrugged.
"Well, this is my cat from home, Mizu. I brought her here because I missed her!" She said, stroking the cat. Mizu walked under the table and brushed against Deidara's leg.
"Go away un…."
"Aw Deidara, it just means she likes you!"
"whatever un…."
"Um, Suki, I don't know if it's a good idea to keep a cat in the Akatsuki." Pein said. Suki looked at him.
"Why?"
"Well, for one thing, Kisame is afraid of them, and the other thing is-"
"Cat's are too expensive to take care of!" Kakuzu complained. Suki looked at him for a moment, She reached into the bowl next to her, pulled out a potato and tossed it onto his plate. Kakuzu looked at it for a moment.
"NNOOOOOO IT'S SO ODDLY SHAPED!" Kakuzu shrieked, running away like Kisame did. At that same moment, Konan ran inside the kitchen next to Pein, hyperventilating.
"Konan? What's wrong?" Pein asked her. Konan took a deep breath to calm down.
"Pein, it's Daichi!"
"What about Daichi?" Suki asked, sounding worried. Deidara stood up next to her. Musoka bowed her head, trying not to let the other members see she was crying.
"He's dead Pein. His body is in your room!"
Kakuzu was too cheap to buy a coffin for their fallen member, so the Akatsuki had to just dig a giant hole and toss the body inside of it. Musoka looked at the pile of dirt sadly. Because Hidan put the body in Pein's room, everyone thought for some odd reason he had murdered Daichi. Musoka looked angrily at Hidan, who just smirked and blew a kiss at her, which made her snarl. How dare he do that at Daichi's funeral. Musoka looked over at Suki. Her eyes were all puffy and red from crying. She saw a single tear roll down Suki's cheek, and watched Deidara shyly put his hand on her shoulder, which seem to calm her down a little. Musoka walked over to her friend and did the same. Nobody said anything until it was time to go.
Suki sat on her bed, staring out into the rain outside. It pounded heavily onto her window. She jumped when a hand touched her shoulder.
"Sorry, did I scare you un?" Deidara asked. Suki nodded.
"A little."
"Sorry… I just wanted to see if you were okay…."
"Aw, thank you…" Suki said, trying to be as sweet as possible, which is hard to do when a very close friend is murdered for no reason. Suki felt tears welling up in her eyes. She looked away so Deidara wouldn't see.
"Suki, it's okay to cry in front of my un."
"I know, it's just…. We were really close, you know?" Suki said, her voice sounding choked up. Deidara sat on the bed next to her, staring at her, which made Suki a little nervous.
"Um, Deidara, can I ask you a question…. About Sasori?"
"Yeah, go ahead un."
"Were you two best friends? Kinda like me Musoka and Daichi?" Deidara thought for a moment.
"Not really friends, no. It was more like I respected him because he was an artist, even though we both had a different perspective of it un…."
"Oh…" Suki didn't say much else after that. She looked up at Deidara, and he looked at her. She leaned in slowly, and pressed her lips against him. She stayed that was for about 3 seconds before pulling away. Deidara looked at her with wide eyes, and Suki covered her mouth.
"Uh-"
"Oh my God, I am so sorry!" Suki squeaked, running out of the room in embarrassment.
"No, no Suki wait! Dammit…." Deidara muttered, hitting the pillow off the bed.
Musoka stared at the pile of dirt. Rain was beating down on her head, hard. She was soaked all the way through her cloak. But she didn't move. She didn't want to leave Daichi, not yet. Tears rolled down her face. Watching Daichi die in front of her, and she couldn't do anything to stop it. She was raped right afterward, by the guy who killed him. The watching someone else take the blame for the murder. It was too much. She suddenly felt the rain stop.
"You'll catch a cold." Itachi said, holding an umbrella over her head. Musoka looked at him.
"Itachi?"
"I came out to see if you were okay."
"Oh… well, thank you, but no."
"I understand. You two seemed to be pretty close friends." He said. Musoka nodded, but didn't say anything. Itachi said nothing for a while.
"He was lucky. To have a friend like you." He said after a while. Musoka looked at him. He looked back, then used his free hand to brush her wet bangs out of her face. Musoka could feel herself blush a little. Itachi smiled a little, but it wasn't very noticeable.
"Come on, we need to get you dried up." He said, walking back to the hideout, holding the umbrella over Musoka.
That night, everyone sat in the living room in complete silence. Everyone was sitting all around the couch, keeping their distance from Pein in case one of them was next. Suki sat next to Deidara, but she was still embarrassed to look at him.
"Why did you kill Daichi Pein?" Zetsu asked. Pein sighed.
"I keep telling you guys, it wasn't me! And why would it matter? The Akatsuki have killed lots of people!"
"But never their own teammates…. Except for Kakuzu." Konan said. Kakuzu glared.
"They had it coming!"
"Kakuzu, they only wanted to borrow a quarter so they could buy a gumball!" Pein argued.
"A quarter is too expensive! They all deserved to die!"
"Cheap bastard…" Hidan muttered. Kakuzu ignored him. Suki refused to make eye contact with Pein at all.
"Well, it's still sad to think our first partner is dead." Zetsu's white side said sadly.
"What? That's what your complaining about? How about the fact we can't fight without him!"
"But he was our comrade! How could you only like him for that? Fighting doesn't mean anything. We are only meant to be spies."
"No thanks to you! You're the reason we are so weak!"
"B-but I'm you!"
"Well, I wish I could get surgery that would separate me from you for good!"
"… Okay, that just hurts…"
"Oh great, I made myself cry again…" Zetsu said, reaching for the box of tissues. Everyone sat there in silence as Zetsu tried to calm himself down.
"Does this happen a lot?" Musoka whispered to Itachi. Itachi nodded.
"At least 4 times a week he gets into a fight with himself and he ends up making himself cry all the time." He answered. Musoka nodded. Everyone sat there in silence as Zetsu tried to calm himself down.
"Come on guys, just because another member in the Akatsuki died doesn't mean we should sit here and mope about it!" Kisame said.
"Easy for you to say…" Suki said real quietly. Kisame looked away, trying to think of something.
"We could watch a really bad sci-fi movie Kisame-san." Tobi suggested. Kisame's face lit up.
"Yeah. Sci-fi movies are always fun to make fun of!" everyone stared ahead, ignoring him.
"I have Sharktopus!" Kisame said, holding up the DVD. Nobody responded.
"Sharktopus!" Kisame repeated, shaking the DVD back and forth. Still no responses.
"Sharkto-"
"DAMMIT KISAME PUT THE DAMN MOVIE IN!" Pein snapped. Kisame looked offended.
"Okay, geez…." He said, getting up to put the movie in. Mizu came up to him and meowed, which made him scream.
"Okay okay I'm getting it in!" He cried, then running back to his seat and hugging his legs in so Mizu wouldn't rub up against him. Deidara rolled his eyes. Itachi sighed and turned on the TV to the movie.
PLEASE REVIEW! And Yes, sharktopus is a real movie. It's really funny because it is so bad. You should watch it.
