Evil, or Something Like It

Drabble 1 - Umbrella
Summary: Based on the idea that we must see the Akatsuki leader's face eventually...won't we? ;P
Itachi raised an eyebrow.
Kisame blinked, grimaced, and finally let out a resigned sigh.
Zetsu cocked his head to one side, looking perplexed.
Sasori grumbled under his breath and was probably rolling his eyes inside his puppet.
Deidara looked slightly disappointed, and showed the beginnings of a pout.
"I must protest, Leader-sama, un."
Sir Leader smirked, amused by their reactions. "And what is it that you feel the need to protest, Deidara?"
"The umbrella, un!"
"Oh, this?" Sir Leader looked up at the object in question. It was a very nice umbrella, he thought; made of the same material that black-out curtains were, it shaded his head and shoulders very nicely, even here on a plain in Grass Country in such sunny weather. "I want a bit of shade. What could be wrong with that?"
"You're hiding," Kisame grumbled. "We still can't see your face. We meet in the cave…fine, it's dark. We meet in an abandoned warehouse at night…fine. We meet in a shadowy forest…fine. But here?"
"It's very bright here," one of Zetsu's voices began, "but isolated, and the rest of us don't have to hide." "There's no need to be in shadows here," the other voice finished.
"Leader-sama is doing it on purpose, un!" Deidara concluded their complaints with an emphatic nod.
Sir Leader smirked again. "Do you need to see my face for this organization to function properly?"
The answer to this being a rather obvious "no" they didn't say anything, though Kisame grimaced and Deidara was frowning again.
"Well, then, if that's settled, we'll get on to the important topics of discussion." He didn't bother to hide the amusement in his voice. After that the meeting went quickly, though he did hear murmurs of "He's so melodramatic, un!" (which was rather hypocritical, coming from Deidara) and "Paranoid bastard" (from Kisame, who got a slight sigh and headshake from his quiet and equally paranoid partner) as the group broke up.
Sir Leader grinned to himself as soon as they were gone, and teleported away before folding up his trusty umbrella. It was so much fun to watch all their reactions…and besides, he had to keep them a bit off-balance with something, didn't he?
AN: Yeah, these are pretty random. Posted on the akatsukilove livejournal, originally. Probably won't be updated very often, but I thought people might be amused.
