Float construction was going well. The frame of Deidara's bird was in place and Kisame had managed to get beautiful flowers at the nursery. His next job was to trim them all up so Dana could glue them to the frame of the bird.

"Oh my god, Deidara and like this one time, my dance company was performing and I like have the best legs of anyone in the company and we were like finishing our routine and I like totally fell on the judges, yeah." Dana said working with the paint for edges of the float.

"Dana! What did you do, yeah?"

"Well, I eneded up sleeping with one of the judges to like fix it, yeah."

"Oh, well was he any good, yeah?" Deidara was painting the other side of the float.

"Not really…but our dance company like totally won the competition, yeah!

"Well, sometimes things pay off, yeah. Oh and Dana…don't you let Itachi talk you into bed with him, yeah!" Deidara warned. Dana laughed.

"Like oh my god Deidara, like I would ever sleep with Itachi! He's such a drama queen, and besides, he really bitches at you a lot, yeah." It was at this point that none other than Kabuto and Orochimaru appeared to see the Akatsukis progress on their float.

"Kabuto!"

"Deidara!"

"Kabuto!"

"Deidara!"

"Why the hell are you here, yeah?" Deidara was still pissed at Kabuto from the beach trip for accusing Deidara of not being a natural blonde.

"We came to see your lame float and compare it to our float…this year we have the secret weapon." Kabuto said.

"What a fucking plum tree to match the purple on your clothes, yeah? Oh, and Orochimaru, you have put on at least 15 pounds and that outfit of your does nothing to hide it, yeah." Deidara said.

"Don't you ever flip blonde hair at me again!" Kabuto said. Itachi of course, heard the commotion and came out into.

"I'll flip anything I want to at you, yeah! So, what's this secret weapon you have this year for your float, yeah?"

"Orochimaru…" Kabuto said snapping his fingers. At the moment Sasuke stepped out form behind Orochimaru. It was at this point that Itachi the drama queen placed his tiara on his head…and all hell broke loose…

"Oh you think because you have the little one who's small for his age you'll win the float competition, yeah?" Deidara demanded.

"What! What the hell? Sasuke? You are NOT on their float! NO! You on their float means less attention to me…and I already have that damn blonde to compete with besides…you don't look good in purple. Oh my god! What the fuck is with this, Sasuke, I hate you! You are such an asshole. Oh my god! You think you're prettier and built better than me don't you! DON'T' YOU? Well, you know what you're not, and you and Orochimaru can shove your hopes of winning this competition up you ass, why you ask? Because I have Deidara on my side…and he has made out with way more girls than you have!" Itachi finally quit ranting while Sasuke just looked at him with his hands on his hips. This was the first time Itachi stuck it out for Deidara, usually he was doing whatever he could to cut him down.

"Itachi…you are so fucking dramatic! And you're wrong…I look good in purple." Sasuke said.

"No! No you don't! I do but you don't! Tell him Deidara, tell him purple sucks ass!"

"Ass, yeah…purple sucks ass. Oh and Sasuke…how old are you now 10, yeah?"

"YES! Tell his ass off Deidara!" Itachi yelled slapping Deidara in the back.

"Oh, you just wait….our float is going to kick your float's ass…with the young Uchiha and the fact that his spikes radiate in the sun…that's irresistible.

"He looks like a fucking cockatoo, yeah." Deidara said. Normally Deidara wasn't so combative, but this was his art piece and anyone who treaded on his art territory was destined to pay. So this arguing continued until Itachi also agreed that Orochimaru had put on weight. The only thing that broke up the argument was when Dana fell into the green paint and Itachi insisted on getting her out of her clothes and into the shower…Deidara was less than thrilled about this
