Konan knocked on the moss covered door, hoping she wouldn't get an answer,answer; she started to back off slowly. No such luck, Zetsu answered alright.

"Leader-sama? Is that you? Is breakfast ready? You know what sounds good right now? A nice serving of―" Zetsu said while opening the door, but his eyes then focused on Shino and Konan. "Newbie! Why aren't you dead?!"

Shino shrugged, "Luck. I guess."

"Well I'd say you just ran out of it!" The talking plant then lunged towards Shino, opening his jaw as wide as he could, then he took a huge bite of Shino's head. Or at least what he thought was Shino's head, Shino exploded into a coa untless number of tiny black insects, and the real Shino appeared behind Zetsu gripping a kunai to his throat.

"Not quite." Shino said., Aand as he was about to slice the venus fly trap's throat, Konan spoke up.

"You know if you kill him, Pein will kick your ass." Konan stated, inspecting her nails.

"She's right you know, would you really want to end up dead?" Zetsu asked in a raspy, somewhat creepy tone.

"What are you talking about? I'd end up dead anyway! You were trying to kill me, remember?" Shino spat back.

"Were? I believe I am." Zetsu grabbed hold of the kunai, then took Shino's arm and held it behind his back. "Now, before I kill you, any words you wish to say?" Zetsu asked.

"Actually I have a word," Konan said, while leaning against a vine covered wall, twirling a lock of blue hair around her finger. "Shino and I need to meet the other members of Akatsuki, then we have to eat, then we have to train, then possibly we might go on a mission. I spent time planning this, so I would appreciate it if Shino would not end up dead before all of this. That really screws it all up."

"Oh. terribly sorry, but maybe tomorrow." Zetsu said.

Konan, then dragged a disoriented Shino out of the garden-like room, then slammed the door shut.

"Yeah right, I highly doubt we're even going to be here tomorrow." Konan smirked.

"Huh? Why not?" Shino asked, with a somewhat slurred tone added to his voice.

"Weren't you paying attention when I was talking about our busy schedule?" Then Konan muttered something along the lines of leaf ninja being stupid or something.

"We're going on a mission. We're likely to be leaving tonight. But that's only if we get a move on! We have to meet Sasori and Deidara!" Konan started dragging Shino down the hall by his ear.

Konan took a right from Zetsu's room, and then she took another two lefts. Konan put her ear to the door in order to hear what the pair was saying.

"No, I'm telling you! Art is beautiful, but beauty only lasts a moment, un!" One of the voices said.

"I agree with you that art is beautiful, it is. But it can last for lifetimes! Like my puppets for example." A slightly raspier voice argued.

Konan opened the door. Shino was shocked at what he saw. So much art supplies, he had never seen so much, not even at the art store in Konoha. Here, there was boxes upon boxed of just blocks of wood, but that was just one side of the room. The other side had mounds of clay, and what appeared to be… Bombs? But there were paint brushes, and an easel, but all that was just scattered in the center of the room, kind of like a dividing line.

"Morning Dei-kun, Sasori-kun." Konan said happily, not at all fazed by their odd room.

"Morning Konan-chan." They said in unison, abruptly stopping their argument.

"So Konan-chan, what brings you here on this fine morning?" Deidara said standing up, "a flower for the lady," he said, handing her a clay flower before continuing his sentence. "And, who is this?" Deidara said directing his gaze towards Shino, with a slight angry tone to his voice.

"Sorry, Dei-kun! This is Shino Aburame. Shino, this is Deidara… Deidara and Sasori."

"Pleasure." Shino greeted sticking out his hand, but instead Deidara poked him in the chest.

"That's what they all say. Then they get C4 shoved down their throat, un!" Deidara threatened, holding up a clay figurine threateningly.

"I don't get it. What did I say?" Shino said innocently.

"Oh, don't mind him, he's just jealous that you're spending a lot of time with Konan-chan." Said a raspy voiced Sasori.

Shino squinted his eyes. "And are you a person… or a pokemon… or what?" Shino asked.

Sasori glanced at his body. "Oh, it appears I'm still wearing Hiruko." 'Sasori's' back popped open, and out climbed a young man with red hair.

"Oh my god, You're Gaara of the Desert!" Shino exclaimed pointing accursedly at Sasori.

"Actually, no. But I am from the sand. It is a pleasure to meet you, Shino." Sasori shook Shino's already outstretched hand.

"Sasori-kun! You're not ugly anymore! Thank the heavens!" Konan squealed and glomped Sasori.

"My, my, Sasori-danna, it seems you've finally took off that ugly thing you call art, un." Deidara stated standing up straighter, but then he got up to whisper in Sasori's ear, "But I suggest you put it back on before Konan-chan turns on me, un."

"Oh, give it up Deidara. She probably already thinks you're a pervert. You've got freaking mouths on your hands!" Sasori whispered/yelled back.

"Are you boys talking about me? Am I just that irresistible?" Konan asked peering behind the two.

"I-uh-umm…" Deidara started, but Shino interrupted him.

"Oh, stop being so full of yourself, Blue. Besides, who would want to talk about you?"

"B-blue?" Konan asked, on the verge of crying, but she decided that it was better not to let her emotions get the better of her.

"Yeah, Blue. You call me Newbie, so I decided I might as well give you a nickname as well." Replied Shino, non-chalantly.

"Well, um, Shino. You can just go and meet the rest of the members; Hidan, Kakuzu, Kisame, and you can meet Tobi too, he's not really a member, but who cares. I'm going to stay here with people who actually like me until breakfast is ready, I guess I'll meet you down there."

"Really screwed up there, didn't you, Newbie?" Deidara spat out at Shino as he held Konan in his arms.

There it is, chappie 4. Personally, I didn't think it was that funny. It wasn't that long either, but it took me forever to think of this alone so, yeah, this is all that there is going to be in this chapter.

So, I've decided that Deidara would like Konan. I mean it makes sense if you think about it. Konan likes cute boys and Deidara likes… Well I imagine he likes spunky girls.

And remember that this is a crack story, so ages are screwed up, some people who are dead have come back to life, but that's just how fanfiction goes, so if you don't like it, don't read it.

Ages: Shino: 18, Konan: 19, Pein: 30, Zetsu: 28, Itachi: 20, Deidara: 19, Sasori: 24, Kisame: 28, Hidan: Only god knows, Kakuzu: Again, Only God knows.

I think that's it! Review! And no flames.
