"A ticket? You got a speeding ticket?" Mira looked incredulous.

Madi hung her head, "It wasn't my fault."

"Wasn't your fault?" Skye asked, "You were alone in the car going 90 on a 35!"

"The numbers got all mixed around. I thought it said 55!"

"YOU WERE GOING 90!" Mira and Skye yelled in unison.

"Maybe if you flew, this wouldn't happen." Deidara said, sauntering by. (haha English vocab word!)

"Yes cause we have extra mouths on our hands that make clay birds," Mira shook her head.

"…That would be sexy…" Skye said, pondering the possibilities. Mira smacked her in the back of the head.

"Well you have to get that taken care of," Cameron strode into the room, flipping through today's mail, "It'll come back to haunt you if you don't."

"Yeah. Haunt you like the image of Hidan in spandex!" They all shuddered.

"C'mon," Mira said, "We'll take the bus, instead of risking having Madi drive."

"I can take her," Cameron offered.

"NO! YOU'LL JUST LECTURE ME ON HOW SPEEDING ENDANGERS LIVES!" Madi cowered closer to the front door.

"So what does that mean?" He asked.

"We'll take the bus to the courthouse and be back later."

Cameron suddenly looked startled, "Wait… what?"

"We'll be back!"

"You can leave me here alone with… them." He motioned to the Akatsuki. Tobi waved happily.

"We can… and we will." Skye slammed the door behind her.

From outside, their little side conversations could be heard:

"If this is Newtown… then is there and Oldtown?"

"No."

"On the way back, can we stop and get a Twinkie? I kinda want a Twinkie."

"No."

"Does anyone find it funny that a nighthawk is a bird the size of a boot? I mean it sounds so intimidating… nighthawk…night…hawk… NIGHTHAWK!…. CA-CAW!"

"SHUT UP MADI!"

Cameron turned around and shaking, walk into the living room. He sat himself down in big comfy leather futon and stared straight ahead at the beige wall, "Soo… where's Katie?"

"Which one is that?" Itachi said, looking up from his new found Harry Potter book.

"Katie… dark hair…" Nothing. "Grey wolf?" Still nothing. "The calmest one?"

"Oh yes!" "Yes" "Yeah" echoed from around the room.

Cameron pursed his lips as the room became awkwardly silent again.

"So…" He tried.

Kakuzu raised his hand and shushed him, "Your petty attempts at small talk and driving me up a wall. Silence yourself, or I'll do it for you."

Cameron rolled his eyes and muttered, "Tightass…" under his breath.

Kakuzu glared with his bright green eyes, "What was that?"

Cameron shrugged, "I don't know what you're talking about."

"Ladies please!" Kisame interjected from the kitchen. Just then, something made a loud popping noise and everybody froze.

"Kisame?" Itachi growled, angry to be disturbed during his Harry Potter reading-athon.

"I don't think that was supposed to happen…"

"What are you doing?" Cameron asked, tightly gripping the futon arm in agitation.

"Well it's almost Thanksgiving so I wanted to make a turkey, but it doesn't want to go in the oven."

"It doesn't want to?"

Suddenly a big brown bird bolted into the living room, knocking over lamps and crashing into shelves sending objects flying.

"IT WASN'T DEAD?"

"Who said anything about a dead turkey?"

"Shut up!" Itachi said, "Catch that bird!"

Cameron dove at the turkey, but it jumped and he landed face first in the fireplace, soot and ash covering the entire top half of his body.

Sasori tried to attach chakra strings to the bird as it ran past, but it swerved and tangled them all up in the banister of the staircase.

The other Akatsuki members tried cornering the bird, but then it got angry. The large brown turkey chased Hidan up a wall… literally… he clung to the ceiling fan.

"Enough of this, hm!" Deidara shouted, in his hands he help large explosive spiders and he launched them at the bird before anybody could stop him.

"NOOO!" Cameron yelled, but it was too late.

*BOOM!*

Later that day

"Ugh! Who knew you had to pay money when you get a ticket…" Madi spat as the girls walked up the front path up to the house… which seemed perfect on the outside.

"Didn't you learn anything in driver's ed?" Skye asked.

"Those classes are actually mandatory?" Madi looked at her incredulously.

Mira just shook her head and unlocked the door. She didn't even have to turn the doorknob when the front door fell off its hinges and crashed to the ground.

"What… the… hell?" Mira cried. Skye and Madi came rushing to her side.

They stared inside in shock. Everything was either on fire, charred, or burned to a crisp.

Skye let out a laugh/sigh, "It wasn't me this time!"

"WHAT HAPPENED!" Mira exclaimed.

Cameron appeared from all the rubble, covered in black soot, "Well… uh…"

"Two hours! We left you alone for TWO HOURS!"

"I can fix this!" Cameron said, "In the meantime, we'll just have to stay in hotel or something."

"That sounds nice… I like hotels…" Skye nodded.

Just then, the big brown turkey came flapping into the living room.

"Either I'm hallucinating from inhaling so much Madi-stupid all day, or there's a turkey in my house…" Skye said.

The turkey trotted up the Madi and she stroked it's long neck, "Ol' McDonald had a farm… ee ay ee ay oh!"

"A hotel it is!" Mira said quickly.

A hotel? With the Akatsuki? This definitely won't end well…. I hope everyone had an enjoyable Thanksgiving! I know these people did!
