o-o-o

The last word of the announcement made their ears perk up. "Munchies?" Kisame repeated with a wide grin and immediately began going back to Konan's room. Of course, he was followed by the others that spoke amongst themselves on what Zetsu could have found. "I can't believe to be hiding this from us." Zetsu said to himself as the group squeezed back into the bedroom to see the latest discovery.

To their shock and disappointment, they got showed a black tube by an excited Zetsu. No one dared to speak until the tube began to be rocked to each side by him. "What the fuck is that?" Hidan asked with an annoyed squint of his eyes. "It's candy!" Zetsu simply replied and turned the tube so the underside of it was facing the Jashinist. On the underside of the black tube was a sticker that held small text but was still legible. Hidan leaned forward to see what was on the sticker until Zetsu continued to talk, "See? It's Strawberry Bliss!" The happy words were then accompanied with a just as happy smile while the silver-haired male slowly backed away from him. "Tobi wants to try the candy!" Tobi excitedly shouted as he joined Zetsu's side to see the thick tube in his hands. "I don't think that's candy…" Itachi whispered with a frown, "Wouldn't it say if it is like real candy does?" All he got reply was a careless shrug while the golden-eyed Akatsuki tried to open the tube. "Will you listen to me? Don't you remember what last time you ate something a tube?" the Uchiha asked with his hands going from the air to being crossed against his chest. The loud words made the other stop as if thinking about what he had been told. "Oh, fuck, yeah! Like that time I had that orange candy from that tube Kakuzu bought. That thing got me sooo sick!" Zetsu gasped at the memory and paused to see Kakuzu quickly slap his forehead. "Idiot, that was toothpaste!" the scarred man shouted to him. Itachi couldn't help but not and then add in a few words of his own, "It was… though it was very cheap toothpaste and wasn't even that good…"

Kakuzu growled angrily but then looked away from the still frowning Itachi. "Even if it is candy, you can't eat it." Pein warned, "Konan will see and get us into huge trouble." This did little good as the tube was slowly opened and Zetsu quickly frowned. "It's empty?" he asked himself as he peeked into the dark tube. He saw nothing but a hint of dark red, which brightened him up quickly. "There's candy still in it!" he loudly announced to the group but quieted down when he found that he didn't get it from the tube. Carefully, he turned it upside down but nothing happened. "It won't come out." He whined and gave it to Itachi. As if mentally interrogated the black tube, he stared down to it. "There's no button?" he whispered as he rotated the tube in his hands and eventually answered his own question.

After minutes of searching, the tube got handed off to the next person, who was Kakuzu. "Why don't we just sell this?" he angrily wondered as he ended up having the same luck as Itachi. Again, it got past to the next person. The black tube stuck out against the blue skin of Kisame as he stared down to it. A run through his hair and a quick nod sent the tall male smiling. "I saw something like this before!" he shared, "It was in one of my shows. This lady had something like this but the one she had was like an ivory color… anyway, she did something and it came out!" The others couldn't help but grin and nod, taking a step to seeing what it really was. Curiosity was quickly taking over them and they didn't even notice.

"Do you remember how she opened it?" one of them asked as Kisame nodded as he grabbed the bottom of the opened tube. "She turned it like this." He said and twisted it on cue but nothing happened. A confused hum was heard from him as he tried again but nothing. "Gah, Alice, you lied to me." Kisame whispered as he mentally cursed out the actress for un-intentionally giving him wrong information when it came to the odd topic of makeup. Coming to a stop, he blinked and tried twisted the bottom of it in another direction and squealed with joy when something rose from the tube. The more he twisted, the more a thick piece of a red substance came from it. It wasn't very long and was a little less thick than the tube it was in and it didn't seem to be candy… or food in general.

"It looks like a crayon!" the giggled words came from Tobi as he had his hands in excited fists. Taking a paper from the pad on the desk, he held out a shaking hand for the tube. "Uh…?" Kisame lifted an eyebrow to the hyper male as he slowly handed over the object. A cry of joy later, Tobi dashed the tip of the lipstick onto the piece of paper. Like he said, it was like a crayon since it left a shaky line of strawberry red… until it broke. The piece of it fell onto the paper and then to the floor. On it, it stood as still as the Akatsuki, who starred with wide eyes. "Did… did that just happen?" Pein asked with his voice just shouting out denial. Tobi looked down to the piece of lipstick that lay near his foot without saying a word. Slowly, he picked it up and then turned his attention to the others. His mask collided with the eyes of the others and quietly gasped to the sound of footsteps in the quiet room. He was soon joined by Kakuzu, who looked down to the broke piece of makeup. "Konan's going to fucking kick your ass, Tobi." He simply said and then picked it up. The red cylinder was rolled between his fingers as he squinted to it. "Maybe we can put it back together?" he shrugged and lazily handed it back to Tobi.

The idea seemed like a good one but the Akatsuki didn't know it would be easier said than done. "I'll get some glue." Sasori offered and left to his room to get some. As he left, Pein nodded to himself and looked at the broken piece of lipstick. "Okay. Glue will work." He said to himself and took the piece to his nose, "Mm… it doesn't even smell like strawberries. I wonder if it tastes like strawberries." He couldn't even put his thoughts into action when someone shouted to him. "Fuck are you doing, man?!" the shout came from Hidan, "Jashin knows what that crap'll do to you!" The harshly said words eventually settled into Pein's mind as he nodded and gave back the lipstick. "You're right. I don't know what I was thinking." He whispered and got a pat on the back by Hidan. A few more pats later, Sasori re-entered the room with two pieces of glue, one was a bottle and the other was a glue stick.

"Alright, let's start." The short redhead spoke as he first opened the glue stick and then the two pieces of lipstick. Sitting on the bed, his small figurine slowly sank into the mattress and then put the lipsticks onto his baggy house pants. A dap of the glue was put into one end of the broken lipstick and then connected it to the bigger piece of it. He held it together so the glue could set and looked to the others. "Is this going to work?" Kisame worriedly asked with his small eyes on the lipstick, "I mean… Konan will torture us if she finds out what we did." There was a moment of silence as they shivered, Hidan being the only one being unaffected by it. The blue skinned male took notice and remembered his silver haired friend was a masochist and couldn't help but add in some last minute words. "… And she'll shred Hidan's bible" he added and jumped by the horrified screams by Hidan.

The loud scream made Sasori jolt from his position as let go of the lipstick. It fell onto his lap, his breath held to see if it would break apart again. He finally sighed when he saw that it didn't break and that the glue was holding the two pieces in place perfectly. "Is it finished?" Deidara asked the staring redhead and took the lipstick from him without waiting for a response. Turning the black tube in his hands, he read the bottom where the sticker was. "Strawberry Bliss, un?" he read out loud with a grin, "I hope it's like those markers that smell like their name!" Curiously, he leaned forward to smell the lipstick and waved it from side to side. He couldn't help but scrunch his nose to the smell and pull away from it, "Ew! It doesn't smell like anything close to strawberries, un." He whined and closed the lipstick. Turning the the group, he held out the lipstick for someone else to take. No one moved to take the black tube from him but just stared. "What, un? It smells gross!" Deidara defensively announced but then saw Itachi shake his head. "You know… just give me… the thing." He quietly said and took it from the other's hand.

He returned it to the bag as the others now looked like they were on the brink of laughing about something. Seeing that he was the only one, Deidara frowned "What happened?" but no one answered. He looked around for someone who could help him but everywhere he looked, they all had the same expression. "What the hell is so funny?" he loudly asked when he began to feel annoyed but got helped by Zetsu. All he did was run his finger across his top lip and the skinny piece of skin between the top lip and the nose. "What about it?" Deidara asked as he copied the motion but stopped when the golden-eyed Akatsuki went to his side. "You got… that red shit on your face, Deidara." He whispered but then sighed when he gasped. "Aw, dammit, un!" Deidara whined as he pushed his wrists against his mouth to wipe off the red substance. "Oh, my Goood! This suuuucks, un! Whyyy?!" the blonde eventually whined when he gave up on his attempts to rub off the lipstick. Finally, the group began to laugh as Sasori watched with crossed arms and a smirk. "It's called Karma and at least that shit you put on me isn't really noticeable." The seemingly young male said as he looked to the whining blonde. The red lipstick really was easy to see against his lips and skin color. All Deidara could do was glare, "Fucking makeup, un…"

o-o-o

Something we all know… Karma's a bitch. I was planning out the next few chapters and saw this will be a bit shorter than I thought. It's from now to the end so hopefully updating will be easier… unless I have issues like I did with this chapter. Hope you all enjoyed. Hugs to all.
