I do not own Naruto

As soon as I stopped shaking my eyes drifted to the twins who had the nerve to show themselves after the hell they just caused. A sharp glare appeared in my eyes and they were smart enough to look absolutely scared; if I could I'd kill them with my glare. "N-now Temp, don't do something stupid; it was just a harmless prank, calm down," James said waving his hands in front of him.

I clenched my fists and started stalking towards the twins. "You had the nerve to interrupt my sleep, slipped spiders on my bed, and claim it was a 'harmless prank'?! What the hell is wrong with you?! What if I got bit, and better yet, where am I supposed to sleep now that I have hundreds of arachnids crawling around my room?!"

Corey was about to say something but instantly closed his mouth; he was unsure what to say or do. I heard Seth sigh before he hugged me from behind, "Temp, for goodness sakes calm down; you don't need to be stressing yourself out further..."

"Calm down? Seriously? You can say that? I just can't do this! I-I need out of this stupid house," I said as my hands started shaking.

"Mathew, go get her meds before this turns severe," my blonde friend said softly trying to stay calm knowing what would happen if he didn't.

Matty nodded before walking to the hall way out of sight before I could hear his footsteps quicken. I felt my heart starting to pound and my breathing began to quicken. "What's going on?" I heard Helen ask.

"She has anxiety attacks when she is under stress and/or when she is scared like she was with the spiders; she sometimes passes out when they get really bad or she'll black out. The whole time though she'll either scream, whimper, or cry while violently kicking or thrashing around," Zara answered her quietly.

My vision started to get blurry and my breathing began to quicken and I let out a whimper. "Guys back up and give her some space real quick; it may help her from having a bad panic attack," I heard Seth mutter. It wasn't long before I blacked out.

Whispering pulled me out of my sleep, but I didn't want to open my eyes yet knowing that I would get attention the second I did. "You're saying that that was a minor panic attack, yeah?" Deidara, I think.

"Yup, normally they get a lot worse than that so we were fortunate," sounded like Seth.

I heard someone in the room sigh before a voice sounding like Kisame's addressed Pein, "Leader-sama, can I talk to you in private?"

I didn't hear anything other than footsteps leaving the room so I assumed that they went to talk. I took a deep breath and stretched to let the others know I was awake. "Val, you scared me to death, " I heard Zara comment before I opened my eyes and sat up; I looked around the environment and recognized it as the living room.

"You okay?" Konan asked walking towards me.

I thought for a minute before nodding, "I should be once my head clears up; just feeling dizzy and disoriented."

"Is that normal?" the kunoichi questioned.

"Unfortunately; happens every time I have an attack," I answered.

Helen came over and gave me a hug, "We're having Corey and James clean up your room."

With a sigh I hugged her back, "At least someone told them to before I could get to them."

Zara ruffled my hair resulting in me scowling. "Good to know you're still your willing-to-kick-rear self," she smirked.

I smacked her hand away before sitting up and swinging my legs to the floor, "So what did I miss and how long was I out?"

"You didn't miss anything, and you were out for about fifteen minutes including your panic attack," Zetsu answered.

I opened my mouth to talk, but my attention swung to the hallway connecting to the kitchen as Kisame and Pein reentered the living room. Everyone turned their attention to the leader as he cleared his throat. "Kisame has informed me of a potential place that will allow a lot of us to relax for a while; Temperance, I believe you know where this is so I'll let you explain this place in California," the pierced ginger said.

Needless to say I was shocked because this meant we were going to the beach house and Pein was now starting to trust me finally. "Well, um, this place is a beach house in Orange County in Southern California; it's about the same size as this home if not a little bigger and it's literally right next to the beach. The weather is different, too, so we may need to get different clothes when we get their along with bathing suits for those who want to go swimming," I stated.

"How the fuck are we going to get there?" Hidan questioned from the dining room table.

"Flying, duh," I deadpanned.

This seemed to interest the blonde bomber. "We can fly, yeah?" he asked.

Zara nodded, "Yup, we have airplanes which are transportation for air travel."

"Your technology is truly amazing," Konan stated heading to the kitchen I'm assuming to get something to drink.

"Helen, could you please get me the phone real quick so I can call Stephanie?" I asked looking at the girl who seems to always have feathers in her hair.

She nodded before grabbing the wireless home phone and handing it to me, "Here you go."

"Thanks," I said before dialing the number of my artistic cousin. It took three rings before she finally answered. "Hello?" her voice rang on the other line.

"Hey Steph, how've you been?" I asked.

"Pretty good; what's up?"

I sighed, "Listen, I was wondering if it wouldn't be too much trouble if me and twelve others could come and stay with you for a while."

There was a pause before she finally answered, "Wow, that's a lot of people, Val; I didn't know you had that many friends."

"Well they kinda just appeared; so do you think you could help me out here with this?"

"Sure; I miss your storm friends anyways. So when will you be coming over?"

I sighed before looking at Cynthia and covering the speaker, "Will you be coming or going home?"

Cynthia yawned before shaking her head, "Nah, the crew and I decided that we were going to catch up with our families and give you and the Akatsuki some space."

I nodded before uncovering the speaker and putting the phone back so I could talk to Stephanie. "Actually, my crew isn't coming with me; all new people," I explained.

A groan was heard from Stephanie so I knew she wasn't too thrilled with it. "Fine; I will let you know that I'll be heading to New Zealand though in the next couple of days so it'll only be you guys and Andra here," she said.

"Aw, how is my half sister? I miss her," I stated with a small pout on my face.

"She's good, and she misses you, too."

I nodded with satisfaction, "Alright, well I'll let you go; I'm getting tickets and then we'll be on our way. If you can we'll need a fifteen passenger rental."

"No need, I have one, remember?"

"Oh yeah, I forgot. Well, see ya when we're in town; bye!" I said; she stated her goodbye before we both hung up. I turned my attention to the Akatsuki and sighed. "Alright; I'm going online to buy our plane tickets. You will need to pack clothes, tooth brush, tooth paste, socks, shoes, hair brush, and anything else you will need while we are there in a suit case; also, bring a small carry on if you want to or something to do on the plane because it's going to be a long flight."

With a nod the Akatsuki, along with Zara and Helen, all left to pack their suit cases. "Cynthia, could you please start packing my suit case as well? I want to be ready to go ASAP," I said getting my laptop and turning it on.

Said lesbian friend nodded before heading to my dresser that was thankfully still in the hallway and began packing for me while I looked online for the plane tickets. Once I did get the tickets, the airport being an hour drive away, I printed out the receipt and plane details for the group and finished packing my suit case. The flight wasn't til four so we had an hour left before we had to leave; talk about crazy packing. Making sure I had packed my phone charger, iPod charger, laptop charger, and toiletries, I threw my iPod, phone, and a few coloring books into a carry-on bag and some snacks during the long flight. "We're leaving within the hour so don't be late!" I shouted as I started double checking everything.

"We'll be ready," I heard Kisame say.

Nodding with satisfaction I turned towards my storm chasing team, "Would it be okay if you guys drove us to the airport so I don't need to leave my vehicle there? I give Cynthia permission to drive my truck if this is a go."

"Sure, it's not a problem; I don't trust the airport parking lot anyways," Seth commented before letting out a yawn.

"Thanks, I'll owe you guys," I said before packing a pair of headphones and a pair of ear buds; I did one of each because I didn't know if anyone wanted to listen to my music with me or not and headphones aren't meant to share. "I believe that's it for me," I said to myself.

My lesbian friend smirked, "Don't forget you have to take all piercings out while going through security."

"Balls," I said beginning to remove all the piercings from my ears and putting them in a little baggy for later. "Guys, one more thing, nothing metal can go with you on the plane, and Pein, you'll have to take your piercings out!" I shouted putting my earrings in my pocket.

I heard loud protests from Hidan and I pinched the bridge of my nose, "If you try going through security with it I promise it will not end well for you."

Putting my laptop in its case along with all of the Big Bang Theory seasons that I owned, all up to six as seven isn't quite out yet, I nodded with satisfaction knowing that I was finally done packing. I grabbed my truck keys before unlocking said vehicle and putting my suitcase, carry-on, laptop, and accessories in the back. Pein and Konan were the next two to finish packing and also put their suit cases in the back with my stuff. I scowled however when I saw his piercings still in his face. "I told you to take them out for security," I said.

"I'll take them out later; I highly doubt it's necessary to do so now," he said with a straight face.

I sighed and waved him off, "Fine, but please don't forget otherwise you might be detained and then we'll miss our flight."

He nodded at my warning and we just waited for everyone else to finish packing. Sasori, Itachi, Kakuzu, and Kisame were the next people done, while everyone else, namely Hidan, were bringing up the rear much to my annoyance. Regardless, we were able to leave the house on time and were currently on our way to the airport which was the next town over. Thankfully I had the car radio off otherwise I would have to hear Hidan complain the entire way; I would have wanted to run his head through a wall after that. Once we did successfully make it to the airport, checked in, dropped off our luggage after tagging them, and pay the suitcase/carry-on fee, we began making our way to the security line. I unpacked my laptop from the bag along with its power cord as instructed, took off my shoes, belt, dropped off my carry-on and went through the full body scanning machine thing; I could see the annoyance on some of the Akatsuki's face from having such tight security measures. Hidan was directly behind me and had taken off his shoes before going into the scanner; a deep beeping noise sounded in which I groaned. "Sir, we'll need you to empty out your pockets and remove your necklace," a security guard said approaching the Jashinist.

Knowing he was about to cuss out the man, Pein cleared his throat and sent a heated glare at Hidan who grumbled before complying. I heard Deidara trying to smother his laughter from behind Kisame causing me to face-palm. "Seriously guys, I told you how things were going to work before we left the house," I sighed.

"Sir, you'll need to remove all your facial piercings along with everything in your pockets," another guard said as Pein took off his shoes.

The ginger nodded before removing all his piercings and emptying his pockets revealing only a wallet. I nodded in satisfaction as the rest of the Akatsuki began emptying their pockets after removing their shoes. However, when Tobi entered the scanner, he would not for the life of him stand still like he was supposed to. I groaned loudly and hung my head, tapping my foot impatiently. "You need to stand still and remove your mask, Sir," the same guard that scolded Hidan said.

"Tobi can't take off his mask!" the black haired nut exclaimed flailing around.

I tapped the guard on the shoulder to try to bail out my new friend, "Um, he kind of has a condition that makes him extremely violent when the mask is removed; also, he doesn't like showing his face since he was abused pretty badly as a child. His mask is like his comfort blanket and he won't part with it."

Accepting the answer, he nodded and went back to trying to get Tobi to stand still; after five minutes they finally were able to scan he hyper ninja and we were all finally on our way to the plane's gate. Fortunately we were not late boarding the plane and after finding our seats and buckled up, I sighed and waited as the rest of the passengers boarding.

Q: What is it that irks you the most?

Fun Fact: You can get sun poisoning.

Okay, I forgot to mention this, but Lavendor Queen just asked a good question in regards to passports; passports aren't required unless you are leaving the country. Temperance and company are good to travel state to state without them.
