Deidara: Hello everybody! We're back, yeah! Say hi, Danna!

Sasori: …hi

Deidara: YAY! So, thanks to my persistence, I got the author to write…A DEIDARAXSAKURA ALTERNATE ENDING FIRST, YEAH!

Sasori: …he annoyed everyone to no end about it.

Deidara: Either way, its here, yeah! So…now, the disclaimer!

Tobi: Can Tobi say the disclaimer?!

Deidara: NO! IT'S MY CHAPTER YEAH, AND I GET TO SAY THE DISCLAIMER!

Tobi: But Tobi is a good boy! TT.TT

Deidara: Too bad, Tobi, yeah!

Tobi: YOU'RE SO MEAN TO TOBI! –cries and clings to Deidara who tries to pry Tobi off-

Sasori: I guess I'll say the disclaimer…Icha Icha Ramen does not own Naruto or the characters. Feel free to review…it would make Deidara very happy

Deidara: DANNA! I WAS GOING TO SAY THE DISCLAIMER, YEAH!

Sasori: yeah, well…what can you do. –shrugs-

Chapter 27: Deidara's alternative ending!

Last day of Art, yeah…after this…I won't be seeing Sakura-chan as much anymore…

Deidara molded his clay slowly, while sitting next to his partner and all time, best friend Sasori. Even though Sasori would deny it aloud, the feeling was mutual.

The blonde Akatsuki let another sigh slip from his lips as he stopped molding the clay, and finally focused on it.

Sakura…

Before him was a clay sculpture of Sakura, her hair was long though, and had a flower placed in it, and her eyes were closed...still, it was amazingly good, and exact in detail…

"Danna! This isn't fair, yeah! Why does he get to have her?" Deidara pouted, before doing the hand jutsu to make his creation explode. He was almost tempted to let it 'live', but with Sasori there and his perspective of artwork on the line, he decided to blow it up.

Sasori had caught the hesitation in Deidara's hand signs as well as seen his sculpture. He only shook his head at this. Deidara certainly was obsessed with this girl…it was the fifth time Deidara had created a sculpture of her in that one period!

"Find someone new." Sasori suggested with a lazy tone, as he continued to paint the eyes for his latest miniature puppet.

"But I can't, yeah! No one could replace Sakura-chan!"

"Either way, try to preoccupy yourself with someone else…for your own good."

"Oh yeah? Well, who then do you suggest, yeah?"

Sasori stopped painting and looked at Deidara, who was glaring at him. Wonderful…

"…maybe one of Sakura's friends…."

"Well! Let's see, there is the bun girl that is taken…The white eyed girl is taken by the kyuubi brat…and then there is that bossy girl with the four pony tails who seems to be with the pineapple head…yeah.."

"…"

"THERE ISNT ANYONE ELSE DANNA! NO ONE, YEAH!" Deidara shouted, pulling the ends of his hair. Sasori sighed irritably. How noisy…

"Either way, Deidara, you said you would let them be…"

"That was before when I was all caught up in the 'selfless' moment…but it SUCKS! I can't stand this any longer, yeah! Plus, she deserves better than Orochimaru's toy, yeah!"

Sasori stopped working, and shut his eyes. It was no use trying to concentrate on his puppet when the idiot was complaining so much….it was too distracting…

"Then why don't you win her back or something…"

"….You know, that just might work, Danna, yeah…." Deidara said in a thoughtful tone.

"We could get Kakuzu's help too! He's too much of a sucker for money to disagree if we bribe him, yeah!" Deidara said again, leaning closer to Sasori, seeking some sort of approval for his plans.

Sasori opened one eye and looked at Deidara, who stared back with one ocean blue eye and a scope.

"Whatever, idiot…"

"Aha! I knew you'd agree, Danna, yeah!" Deidara chuckled and started molding the clay again. This time, it came out to be three figures. There was Sakura, Sasuke…and Deidara…

Sasori watched as Deidara set the figure in front of him and a small smile began to form on the blonde's lips.

"Sasuke's such a bitch, he is just a witch, yeah. I really hate him, why does Sakura date him? Sakura's such a …woman! I'd do all I can, yeah….just to claim her, I just wanna date her, yeah!" Deidara sang to himself, playing with the figures.

Sasori's eyebrow arched slightly as he watched with a displeased expression on his face. What kind of nonsense is the idiot singing?

"He's such a bitch I'm gunna scratch his eyes out, yeah…I have dreams about Sakura, and she'd be with me eating tempura, and we'd hug and we'd kiss like we're sweet hearts, yeah! But that Sasuke's a slut, with that hair of a duck butt, and I guess Sakura like's his pointy witch nose, yeah!"

"And I cry, everyday, because straight up that bastard's in my way!"

"Sasuke is a bitch! He is just a witch! I really hate him, why does Sakura date him?! Sakura's such a woman, I'd do all I can! Just to claim her, I just want to have her!"

Deidara was still playing with the clay dolls he made, having Sakura's figure standing near Sasuke while Deidara made his little figure move around as he sang.

"When I see him, I will knee him! Ooo oo ooo ooo! Then I'll punch him, I will crunch him! Oooo oh yeah!"

"Hey look, well if it isn't chibi-itachi WITHOUT SAKURA or his stupid chalkra, yeah! Come over here, Sasuke, yeah over---BAM! TAKE THAT YOU SKANK! BITCHY DUCK BASTARD, YEAH!" Deidara was now using his self figure as a weapon to attack his Sasuke figure as the poor, dillusional blonde smooshed the clay together. After he seemed satisfied, Deidara stopped and brought his figure with Sakura's and made them hold hands.

Sasori's eye twitched as he watched Deidara lean back with a smirk. The blonde sat there, admiring his own handiwork.

"Hey, Sasori, Deidara, sorry I'm late!" Sakura came in with her sketch book and came walking towards them. Deidara muttered a curse and performed the hand sign. In an instant, all three if the clay figure's burst into a cloud of smoke, and ended in splotches all over the table, Deidara's face, and on Sasori…

"You idiot…" Sasori said quietly, trying to pick off the clay from his cloak. Deidara laughed nervously as Sakura stared wide-eyed at the explosion's mess.

"Art's a bang, yeah!"

"…"

"Deidara, I think you have some mental issues…" Sasori commented, as the pair walked to his car later that afternoon. Deidara sighed.

"Yeah, well…it's expected, yeah? I'm not in Akatsuki just for my skills."

"…true…"

The two walked a little further until…

"DAMMIT YOU SEW BAG! GIVE ME THE KEYS FUCKER!"

"…no…you must give me…10 dollars…" Kakuzu was holding the keys a good couple inches out of Hidan's reach beside a silver car. Hidan's face was red, as the man shouted a line of colorful words while Kakuzu remained impassive and calm…

"AH, Kakuzu, yeah!" Deidara greeted with a wave, and started walking towards them. Sasori sighed before following as well.

"Ah, blondie, help me take down this mother fucking bastard!" Hidan declared heatedly. Deidara scratched the back of his head.

"Kakuzu, if I gave you enough money, would you help me with something?"

Kakuzu instantly turned his green gaze at Deidara, and interested look swirling in them.

"Keep talking…" Beginning to grow a new interest in Deidara's situation, Kakuzu unknowingly let his arm within reaching distance of Hidan, and the immortal member snatched them at the opportunity.

"I'll pay you money, if you help me in capturing Sakura's heart, yeah!" Deidara announced, with a grin. It grew very quite…

Kakuzu narrowed his eyes, in slight disgust, while Hidan made a weird face.

"You queer!"

"AM NOT, YEAH!"

"Sure, trans-man, sure!"

"HIDAN! Get in the car…"

"Do I look like a two year old to you, dammit?!" Hidan glared at Kakuzu. The two glared at one another for a couple of minutes until Hidan let out a frustrated and impatient sigh and walked to the driver's side of the car, grumbling.

Kakuzu turned his attention back to Deidara and Sasori who stood there watching him.

"So…what's the plan?"

Meanwhile, back at the school, Sakura and Sasuke were being held up by Naruto…

"We should go out to ichiraku's! BELIEVE IT!" Naruto shouted, while grabbing Sakura's shoulders and shaking her. Sasuke got pissed and punched Naruto in the face, thus, allowing Sakura to be set free.

"Teme! THAT HURT!"

"hn."

Hinata popped up behind Naruto, blushing slightly as she looked down at her feet.

"I would g-go to Ichiraku with you, N-Naruto-kun…" She said softly. Naruto immediately jumped up from the ground and hugged the poor Hyuuga.

"ALRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT! LET'S GO, DATTEBAYO!" Naruto dragged Hinata to his car, where he sped off to Ichiraku, which was amazingly there in this alternate world too.

"Dobe…" Sasuke muttered, feeling an ounce sorry for Hinata…but that didn't last very long.

"Sasuke…"

The two turned around to see Itachi, clad in a pair of black shades, staring at them. Kisame was no where to be seen.

"…Itachi…" Sasuke said darkly.

"I need to speak with you…" Itachi said calmly, as he put his hand on Sakura's shoulder and looked at her in the eyes.

It was silent for a moment.

"Itachi…I'm over here…" Sasuke pointed out. All three of them sweat dropped.

"Of course…come…" Sasuke sighed irritably and followed Itachi around the corner of the building, after giving Sakura a 'wait here' signal.

Sakura sighed and sat down on the concrete flowerbed wall while she waited…

I should be happy now that I'm with Sasuke…but…it just, doesn't seem to be enough. I thought I'd be happier…maybe…I grew out of liking him? No! I love Sasuke-kun…..don't I?

"A penny for your thoughts, yeah?"

Sakura looked up surprised, and met with Deidara's ocean blue eye just inches from her own. She blushed a little at their close proximity.

"Deidara!"

"Hi, Sakura-chan! So…where's chibi-itachi, yeah?" Deidara sat down next to her, smirking.

"Uhm…he went with Itachi…" Sakura said.

"FUCKERS! ITACHI LEFT WITHOUT US DAMMIT!" Hidan screamed, as he and Kakuzu stopped by the end of the flowerbed. Kakuzu shook his head, as Hidan cursed.

"Hidan…Kakuzu?" Sakura called. The two looked over and began to approach them.

"Hello…." Kakuzu said flatly, while Hidan gave her a wink…it made her cringe slightly.

"Itachi left, yeah?" Deidara asked.

"Yes, that fuckin weasel didn't bother waiting for us and drove off to that party without us!" Hidan growled. Kakuzu nodded.

"…" Sakura looked around, finding no Sasuke, and began to grow curious.

"Wait, Sasuke was with him, ne Sakura-chan, yeah?" Deidara asked concerned. Sakura nodded.

"YEAH HE WAS! THE KID WITH THE SHITTY DUCK HAIR CUT WENT WITH HIM!" Hidan screamed.

"indeed…" Kakuzu added.

Sakura bit her lip, an angered expression crossing her face.

"Why would he…"

"Sasuke's been hanging around Itachi a lot lately…he's been at the last few parties…" Kakuzu said to no one in particular. Sakura stared at Kakuzu.

"He stole the sluts that I claimed! The bitch!" Hidan yelled.

Deidara looked over at Sakura who was growing even more frustrated.

"It was definitely Itachi's influence…" Kakuzu added, acting as if he was talking to Hidan. At that Sakura got up hastily and walked a bit fast to her car.

The three men stopped, silent and watched.

"Hmmm…I think it worked…" Kakuzu murmured. Deidara got up, handing a bill to Kakuzu, who smiled gleefully, while Hidan snorted.

"So, about my pay ment?"

"You are not laying one finger on Sakura-chan, yeah!" Deidara exclaimed, before catching up with Sakura. Hidan clenched his teeth.

"You said if I agreed I could get her to go out with me for a night dammit!"

"…I lied again."

"MONEY BASTARD!" Hidan raged, kicking Kakuzu in the foot. Kakuzu ignored the other man, as they ended up walking to their own car…

"Sakura-chan! Are you okay, yeah?" Deidara had caught up with Sakura who was standing next to her car, her back facing Deidara.

"……I don't know…" Deidara frowned.

Flashback:

"The plan is, to make the rumor work! Just make something up and I'll play along! Sasuke usually talks to that kyuubi brat anyway, so he'll be distracted and Sakura will be open to talk to, yeah! It's brilliant!"

"You're going to regret this…" Sasori warned, before he drove off with Deidara's car…and Deidara's keys…

End of Flashback:

You were right Danna, yeah…though, I didn't plan on Itachi actually taking Sasuke away…where did they go, yeah?

Sakura opened her car door and got it, looking a bit confused and a little sad. Deidara walked closer to the car and gave her a small smile.

"Sakura-chan…could I have a ride home? Sasori no danna stole my car, yeah…"

Sakura nodded, and Deidara headed over to the passenger seat, a smirk playing on his lips as he got in.

"Deidara…do you mind if I borrow you for the rest of the night…" Sakura asked with a hopeful look in her eyes. Deidara stared at her, shocked by the question but happily agreed.

After that, the two drove off, towards the Uchiha compound!

"Hidan, if you don't slow down, this car WILL crash into a tree, and I am NOT the one paying for the expenses!" Kakuzu threatened.

"Tch….HEY! It's the Uchiha bastards!" Hidan pointed out. Kakuzu raised an eyebrow to look ahead and saw the two, indeed…outside…

"A party…"

"Well isn't that a coincidence…we must be freakin mind readers or something." Hidan scoffed as they drove past the house. They saw a girl with platinum blonde hair pulled up in a high pony tail with slutty purple clothing cling to Sasuke.

"Hmmm…"

"Keep driving, moron." Kakuzu barked. Hidan made a groan but kept driving past the house, while Kakuzu glanced back again, catching the lip lock the younger Uchiha initiated with the girl. He kept a note of it…This information could mean more money, you know…

It was eight o'clock on a Friday night, where a pink haired girl sat on the Uchiha's fluffy black couched in their playroom basement, dressed in sweats, with a carton of ice cream sitting on her lap.

Sakura sniffled as she watched The Fox and The hound movie, tears forming in her eyes at the sad parts and all. Oh yes, it looked like someone was moping…and who else would she chose to mope around with than Deidara?

The blonde man sat next to her, focused more on her than the movie, and seemed to feel the guilt building up higher and higher.

This is kind of pathetic! I set up a scenario to allow a rumor to mislead her judgement on the uchiha prick, and she ends up falling into a depression!

Sakura coughed a little, wiping her eyes.

"He's so cute! So loyal…why did the old lady have to abandon him in the beginning? WHY!?" Sakura cried, shoving a spoonful of mint chocolate chip ice cream in her mouth.

wow…

Sakura closed the carton after the next spoonful of ice cream and set it aside on the table, while she let herself fall over and lean on Deidara.

Hmm…not so bad after all, yeah…

"Sakura-chan…it's only a movie you know, yeah…"

"But! Why? She ditched him!"

"She did it for his own good, yeah…"

"But what if he didn't want to be alone like that? What if he enjoyed her companionship?"

Sakura shook a little as a memory of a certain avenger came up…that night…when he left her on the hard, cold stone bench…abandoning her…even if he did think it was for her own good…

"Maybe the fox needed to move on…find something new, or maybe it was just never meant to be, yeah?" Deidara watched as Sakura tensed a little, and then relaxed. He has a feeling that this conversation was no longer about the fox…

"I guess…" She sniffled.

"If the fox never got abandoned, then he wouldn't have met his lover, yeah..." Deidara stated. Sakura paused.

"…"

"Plus, with every bad thing, comes something good…" Deidara explained. It was quiet for a moment, but then a slight vibration made Deidara jump in surprise.

He grabbed the phone from his pocket and flipped it open.

"Kakuzu?"

On the other line, Kakuzu was waiting patiently for Hidan to make a move in their game of poker…Hidan seemed to be on the loosing side of course…

"I got news…but it comes, with a price…" Kakuzu replied.

"okay, yeah…how much?"

"Ten bucks…"

"What is with you and tens lately, yeah?"

"…doesn't matter, look, Hidan and I were on the way home, and it turns out our story is true…"

Sakura seemed to be paying no attention as she reopened the ice cream and began eating it again, absorbed in the movie once more…which was good news for Deidara…

"What?"

"Itachi and Sasuke were at the Yamanaka residence…noticed the name plate near the front door. Sasuke was kissing some other girl…"

"…ah…" Deidara blinked. Wow…well this was odd…

"interesting, no?"

"Why was Itachi there? Why would Itachi bring him there, yeah?"

"…Hm…Itachi isn't one for parties…though, neither was his brother…I don't know, kid."

In the background, Deidara heard Hidan start screaming profanities again.

"Well, that's my cue to go. I need to collect some money. I expect my payment in my mailbox by Saturday evening."

Deidara hung up the phone and started to slump on the couch. So it was true, yeah…

He looked over at Sakura, who was wiping her eyes again.

"Sasuke's with Ino-pig, huh?" Sakura said sadly. Deidara frowned.

"I'm sorry, Sakura-chan, yeah…"

"No, don't be……"

"So you heard Kakuzu…"

"mhm…he talks loud…"

"yeah…"

There was an awkward silence again, before Sakura unexpectedly hugged Deidara, tears beginning to form again.

"I should have never let myself trust him again…he broke my heart once…and he did it again…even if I was starting to dislike him in the romantic way…I still loved him and all…and he did that stuff behind my back. He abandoned me at the school to go off with Ino? I know she's been slutting around him when I'm not there over this year, and how he has been out…but does that mean he's been out with Ino all those times he turned down a date?!"

Sakura buried her face in Deidara's cloak. Things started to piece together, like a puzzle. The times Sasuke would randomly go out, and wouldn't return until early in the morning, or when he would go for a weekend without once saying hi to her…Like he was avoiding her…

"You deserve better than him, Sakura-chan…Don't cry for someone like him, yeah."

Deidara brushed his fingers through her hair, smiling in reminiscence at the first time he felt it…yes, it still had the same soft silky touch…and the sweet smell of strawberrys…and there was no english class or Kurenai-sensei to interrupt either…

Sakura seemed to calm down after than, and soon pulled away from Deidara, only a bit, so she could look up at his face.

"…I don't know anymore Deidara…I thought I still loved him, and I know I don't, especially now…I had enough of him, I can't stand to have him do this to me anymore…"

"Sakura-chan…"

She looked up at him with watery green eyes.

"The fox might have been abandoned by the person he cared for most...but he still found happiness…love…right?"

Sakura furrowed her eyebrows in confusion.

"But…what?"

"Okay so maybe I suck at trying to make a heart warming connection to the movie, but what I am trying to do is tell you, that there is always going to be someone willing to make you happy, Sakura-chan, yeah…You will get the love you deserve."

Sakura blinked, staring at Deidara for a while. She slowly brought a hand to his face, brushing away his hair to reveal the scope…

"All this time…you always were there for me Deidara…this whole year, when I was sad, you would cheer me up…and now…maybe it is about time I look for someone who truly loves me back…"

She started to lean in closer to Deidara, who by now was turning cherry red…Deidara smirked, stopping Sakura from moving any closer, and kissed her forehead.

"Sakura-chan…how about we get you to bed, yeah? You look exhausted…"

Confused, Sakura nodded, turning off the tv and taking the carton upstairs to throw out. Once they got to her room, she rubbed her eyes and sat on her bed.

"You need the rest…and you need to take time to adjust to the…change with the uchiha brat, yeah." Deidara said. Sakura got under her covers and looked up at Deidara.

"I'll be leaving, I need to clean my room still, yeah…and danna is probably wondering where I ran off to…Good night, Sakura-chan…." Deidara turned off the light, and bent down, giving her a sweet kiss on the lips.

"can I keep you?" Sakura whispered as he pulled away. Deidara smirked.

"You already had me, Sakura-chan, yeah…" Deidara walked out of the room, closing the door quietly as he did so and walked to the front door.

"Hn…"

"Itachi, yeah?" Deidara watched as Itachi walked past him, and after him came Sasuke, who looked a little…tipsy.

"What the hell are you doing here?" Sasuke asked, aggravated.

Deidara glared back at the Uchiha.

"I was here with Sakura-chan while you shamelessly fooled around, yeah."

Sasuke seemed to sober up with that, and his Sharingan bled through his onyx gaze.

"What were you doing with my Sakura?" Sasuke demanded harshly.

"Your Sakura? You sure are possessive for someone who doesn't seem to give a crap, yeah." Deidara pulled off the gloves he had on, revealing his two mouths on his palms.

"She IS mine, so back off. I do care, anyway."

"Sure, that's why you're out with the yamanaka slut, yeah?"

Sasuke growled.

"That's none of your concern!"

"Is to, because Sakura is my friend and it's affecting her! How could you do something to someone who was so devoted to you, yeah? What reason do you have?"

"Sakura is to produce the next Uchiha to my clan. I won't have you get in the way of that."

Deidara took a small wad of clay, the size of an eraser on the tip of a pencil and threw it at the Uchiha, making him twitch at the small pop of an explosion.

"So that's it? You only need her for a baby machine? Sakura is a HUMAN with FEELINGS, boy. She is not some tool to use for your advantage, yeah!"

Deidara sent a punch to Sasuke's jaw, causing the said person to stumbled back, out the door and onto the lawn. Deidara then produce three of his small clay spider bombs and send them at Sasuke.

"The hell!" Sasuke jumped away from the crawling bombs, but they jumped and clung to his foot. Deidara, thinking ahead of the consequences he would pay if he were to seriously injure this boy, made them jump away and just explode to cause alarm in Sasuke's senses.

Where's Itachi? I need to make sure Sakura is kept away from this jerk somehow, yeah!

Setting multiple spiders after Sasuke again to keep him preoccupied, Deidara snuck back into the house in search for Itachi.

"Deidara…" Itachi said calmly from the corner of the darkened room. Deidara stepped closer.

"To think you would be involved to without a care, yeah. Surprising.."

"You shouldn't assume, Deidara…" Itachi's red eyes stood out against the dark contrast of the room, making them seem to glow.

"What's your explanation, then, yeah?"

"Simple. I was telling Sasuke mom was going to be home late, and in turn Sasuke asked me to drive him someplace…When we arrived at that place, Sasuke went off…I can't control him…"

"But you could have at least said something, yeah!"

"…not my place to say…I refuse to do anything more for him…he is making a mistake, yes, but I won't be correcting it for him. Not again. If their relationship is broken, it just means better news for me, hm? And of course, you have a chance to now…"

"…whatever, yeah. Just make sure your idiot brother doesn't go NEAR Sakura-chan or do anything to her, yeah?"

Itachi hesitated, and they stood staring at each other for a minute.

"I am surprised you would have to ask…" Deidara smirked. Well, at least Itachi was still over protective of Sakura as well…he wouldn't let anything happen….

"Thank you…" Deidara said, and left. Sasuke was still battling with the spiders, causing Deidara to snort. The poor kid, he really isn't as much of a genius as we all gave him credit for, hmmm?

With a small handsign the spiders exploded, causing Sasuke to yelp as one of the blasts burnt his arm. Deidara took out a small clay bird, and made another hand sign, allowing it to enlarge. When he was satisfied, Deidara jumped a top the bird and with a smirk waved to an annoyed Sasuke as he ascended into the night.

"Heh. Wait until Danna hears this, yeah!" Deidara exclaimed, brushing a hand over his lips, with a smile.

End

Deidara: That wasn't long enough yeah! And what about the more fluffiness?!

Sasuke: I would never do that to Sakura!

Deidara: You do think of her as a baby machine a lot though, yeah.

Sasuke: …SHUT UP!

Sakura: Sasuke-kun! How could you!

Sasuke: I DO LOVE YOU DAMMIT! THIS IS JUST A STUPID STORY!

Sakura: -blush-

Deidara: Why do you have to ruin it, yeah! This is suppose to be MY alternative ending, where I get Sakura-chan, yeah! –pulls Sakura close to him and hugs her-

Sasuke: -activates Sharingan-

Deidara: hmm…I remember last time I had to fight with you…you're too fast, and you made my plan backfire, yeah! WHY DIDN'T THOSE BOMBS BLOW YOU TO SMITHEREANS, YEAH!?

Tobi: He is Itachi-san's younger brother, Deidara-sempai!

Deidara: -glare- AND YOU! You were basically NO HELP at ALL, YEAH!

Tobi: But Deidara-sempai! Tobi made sure the land minds were all put in!

Sakura: What are they talking about??

Sasuke: Chapter 358 of the current manga…

Sakura: ….right…O.o

Deidara: YOU ARE AN IDIOT, TOBI! I WISH SASORI NO DANNA NEVER DIED SO THEN I WOULDN'T HAVE HAD TO DEAL WITH YOU!

Tobi: How cold!

Sasori: …e.e

Deidara: Sorry, danna, yeah…

Sakura: ahaha…yeah…maybe if you weren't intent on killing me I wouldn't have killed you, Sasori-san…

Sasori: -sigh- …

Sasuke: End this, the whole conversation here is getting too long…

Deidara: Fine, chibi-itachi!

Sakura: Okay then! Well, reviewers and readers, if you may, please review! The next alternative ending, with an Itachi and Sakura pairing will be coming out soon!

Sasuke: Bastards…

Sakura: uhm…that will be the last alternative, and then the mini series will show up! There will be one shots of our story from throughout the sophomore school year, at random, and the mini series will continue at the same time!

Deidara: PUT IN A PREVIEW, YEAH!

Kisame: SAVE THE WHALES!

Deidara: NO, FISH BUTT! THE PREVIEW, YEAH!

Preview:

Sakura yawned as she rolled off her bed. She opened one eyelid and gazed at the clock…

"2 pm?!" She shrieked. Geez, I wasted the whole morning sleeping!

She got up from the floor and hurriedly got changed. Once she was done, she checked herself in the mirror. She had on a black tank top with a white skirt, with black shorts underneath. She decided to put her hair in a pony tail today as well.

Once she was satisfied, she rushed out of her room, down the stairs and out the door, totally forgetting about breakfast or lunch.

She ran for a while until she came to a park. It was abandoned, mostly because of the bear sightings, citizens have stayed away from the area…but it was a perfect place at the moment.

"You're late. Very late." A cold voice echoed behind her. Sakura turned around and spotted Sasuke leaning against one of the trees at the edge of the forest. She smirked.

"Not as late as Kakashi." She smiled. Sasuke shook his head and turned his gaze to the left, where Sakura could hear muttered curses.

"Teme! How could you be so…violent…dattebayo…"

"Naruto!"

Naruto collapsed on his bum between Sakura and Sasuke, looking beat up, and exhausted.

"We had to occupy ourselves somehow…" Sasuke said flatly. Sakura gave him a sharp look before kneeling beside Naruto to heel some of his wounds.

"Just what did you do to him?" Sakura asked, as she healed the gash in Naruto's side. Naruto winced slightly.

"We kind of went all out…well, as much as we could without creating suspicion in the area." Naruto answered.

"He used Chidori?!"

"I used Rasengan…I just…missed…"

Sakura sighed heavily. Boys….

"Yo." The three turned their heads to see their former sensei sitting up in a tree, with his trusty Icha Icha book in hand. Sakura sweat dropped.

"Still the same, sensei…" Sakura said dryly. Kakashi chuckled.

"Sorry I'm late…I got lost on the road of life…"

"LIAR!" Screamed Naruto and Sakura. Sasuke smirked. Just like old times…

"So, whose idea was it to start training again?" Kakashi asked casually, though his eye was locked on Sasuke. Sakura smiled while Naruto got up, now healed and pumped his fist.

"WE NEED TO STAY STRONG, SENSEI! AFTER ALL, ONCE WE GET BACK, I'M GOING TO BECOME HOKAGE! BELIEVE IT!" Naruto shouted.

Sakura laughed while Sasuke rolled his eyes.

"Dobe…"

"Well then, let's start, shall we?" Kakashi stated, as he jumped down from the tree and came closer.

"We will start off with pairing each other in two's and facing off one another…mostly to get adjusted back to our skills and such. Naruto is with me." Kakashi's eye crinkled as he smiled. And if things get too much for me to handle, I'll just use ramen as a distraction…

"AWWW WHY CAN'T I TRAIN WITH SAKURA-CHAN!?!" Naruto argued.

"Because I said so. Now, let's go!" Kakashi replied, before walking off to another area. Naruto grumbled and looked at Sasuke.

"If you DARE hurt her, I will KILL you! Dattebayo!" Naruto growled, before chasing after Kakashi. Sasuke smirked.

"Naruto…you idiot…" Sakura mumbled but smiled. He was concerned…

"So, ready for me to kick your ass, Uchiha?" Sakura asked, pulling her gloves from her back pack and putting them on.

"A little overconfident I see…" Sasuke replied, getting in a fighting stance.

"Well, it's about time you got some proper pay back." Sakura said, getting ready as well.

"I still can't believe you have that outfit on...it's like your wearing a curtain or something…it's hideous!" Sakura pointed out. Indeed, our poor Sasuke had on the outfit he wore when he stayed at Orochimaru's lair.

"hn…" Sasuke didn't know it, but Sakura had already set her plan in motion…

This will be interesting…now I finally get to see the strength she has gained through the years…

Sasuke smirked.

He's such an egotistical bastard, I hope this will knock him off his high horse!

Sakura smirked. And at that, that battle began!!

Sasuke: That sucked…why the hell am I wearing that ridiculous outfit anyway?!

Icha-chan: Because, it makes you look stupid!

Sasuke: -growls-

Icha-chan: Ahem, anyway, That's a sample from the first chapter of the mini series! To answer some of the questions I am sure you will ask…

Yes, there will be SasuXSakuness!

Yes, there will be AKATSUKI ACTION!

Yes, Kakashi remembered! Woot! It was necessary!

Who will win? Well, you just have to wait til it comes out! XP

Deidara: Damn…more Sasuke and Sakura fluff, yeah?!

Icha-chan: Sorry, Deidara. You had Sakura already though…

Deidara: TT.TT still…

Sasori: …so I don't get an alternative?

Icha-chan: -smiles- Well, no…but, I've been thinking…Instead of that, since Itachi and Deidara have their turn with Sakura…you will have your moment in the series!

Sasori:….but it's a Sakura and Sasuke story…

Icha-chan: Not the mini series! It's like a free for all! You as well as other Akatsuki…not Gaara yet, people…you must wait til the sequel for him to appear again. SORRY! But anyway, the Akatsuki and you, Sasori, will have your chance with Sakura. No she will not be a slut, it will be more like….GRR its hard to explain…

Sasori: …

Icha-chan: But there is some NejiXTenten too! I'm starting to like their pairing a little more too…see, I was mainly only caring about Sakura and the other pairing, since Sakura is my fave character…BESIDES THE AKATSUKI…and since Neji and Tenten are all cute, I decided to add them too.

Neji: …

Tenten: YES! Finally! We get more parts in the story!

Neji: …damn…

Icha-chan: Well, this is it for now! Until the Itachi alternate ending. I hope this alternate chapter was enjoyable for some of you DeidaraXSakura fans!!! THANK YOU all of you awesome loyal reviewers from the last special thanks chapter! There is almost too many of you, it takes like an HOUR just to write all those responses! So, I might end up sending messages instead…I don't know…

Deidara: BYE EVERYONE! I LOVE YOU ALL!

Kisame: …I forgot who, but SOMEONE doesn't like saving the whales! THEY WANT THEM TO DIE! –is angry-

Itachi: Kisame…its not that big of a deal…

Kisame: YES IT IS! AND YOU KNOW WHAT?!? I WILL MARRY A WHALE, AND WE SHALL GET MARRIED ON TOP OF A MOUNTAIN! AND YOU WONT BE INVITED, YOU WHALE HATER!

Itachi: …-squints- that was a poor attempt at using the line from Anchorman…

Kisame: -sigh- I know…but I felt inspired…

Deidara: Don't feel bad Kisame-chan, I still love those whales…

Kisame! you do?!

Deidara: NOPE! BIRDS ARE BETTER, YEAH! FEED THE BIRDS PEOPLE!

Sasori: …how did these two get into our organization?

Itachi: -shrugs- We all must be insane to some degree…they just express it in a different way…

Sasori: …im not insane…

Itachi: You turned yourself into a puppet.

Sasori: …e.e…

Itachi: Just pointing out the obvious…hn…Look, there is Zetsu, who eats people, Kisame who is a walking talking shark, Me…well I killed my whole entire family save my brother, Deidara has hands on his palms and eats clay with them, Kakuzu is like freakin Frankenstein, Hidan is a masochist, Leader seems to have a fear of light, The Unknown doesn't even have an identity, Tobi has no face…You fit right in…

Sasori: …psh…

Itachi: At least you're hot. You could look like Kakuzu.

Sasori: -twitch- aa…

Kakuzu: grrr…

Hidan: Don't worry, sew bag. You'll always be hot to me…

Kakuzu: O.o

Hidan: …I was KIDDING…

Leader: GET BACK TO THE MEETING YOU BASTARDS!

Itachi: -pauses- Remember to review…-activates mangekyou and smiles sadistically-
