K so I immediately started working on this chapter after the previous one. I kept thinking "I shall get this done! For This. Is. SPARTA!"
No joke it was bad, my poor mother was in the room at that point.
In memory of my mother's sanity.
Unique: On with the story, we do disclaim naruto and any characters! We do however Own Courtney!
Courtney: WHAT!
Unique: Hahahahahaaa!
Why do you bother me so!
~Kakuzu's POV~
The little runt Deidara was going to drive me insane! He continued to complain that he couldn't use his bombs. It was better than Hidan ranting on about something completely stupid. This may sound stupid coming from someone my age but we were being followed by that trio of animals. Since they were animals I didn't bother doing anything.
"Deidara, will you please be quiet!"
"Aw come on Kakuzu! You can't tell me that you missed something too!" He paused, "There is no hiding it old geezer, and I know you miss punching Hidan's face in!"
"It's fun hurting him, but just the thought of coming back to his foul mouth is what irritates me," Deidara was now walking in boredom needing the clay to one of his bombs.
"Deidara I swear if you let that thing off anywhere near me, you're my next donor."
I don't think he got what I meant until he thought it over. He looked at me with a doomed expression, and then just played with the spider wriggling in his hand. The walk was then on quiet with the occasional rustling of our stalkers. The main priority we had at that moment was to find one of the Akatsuki members, or to get to the base. Sadly with my luck the terrorist kept grunting and whispering to himself which once again was getting on my nerves. I was about to whack him over the head when I heard familiar bickering. I turned my head to the source of the sound and sure enough caught site of who it was. I grabbed Deidara's arm and began trudging over to them.
I grunted as the blonde's hand bit down on my own. Giving him a deadly glare, we entered the clearing to see none other than the inseparable partners. Kisame and Itachi looked our way and instantly gave a surprised look. Even the stone cold Uchiha had a slight emotion showing.
"So we finally find you guys! Where the hell have you guys been!"
"If only we knew, grumps here didn't even bother looking around," did he just call me 'grumps'?
"Coming from the boy who wanted to see everything,"
"But-"
"But nothing; if it is possible can we return to the base now?" Kisame and Itachi looked at each other then nod. Itachi spoke up right before we set off.
"Leader was thinking you two ran off and abandoned the Akatsuki. Seeing as we couldn't find you he was growing angry. He will be pleased to know you still are loyal to the organization,"
"Can we please just go, my bed is calling for me…?"
That boy Deidara was driving me insane! I did have to agree with him though; we were tired for some reason. But since we are back in reality I am glad….nope never mind.
~Unique's POV~
I woke up with a searing headache. I cringed at the sunlight that was cast down upon me. All I wanted to do was get this damn headache, no migraine, away. I got up slowly and began to search for water. My fur was sticking to me on my stomach and neck. It was defiantly uncomfortable, weird, and irritating!
I swear walking for an hour and a half was aggravating; I couldn't find water anywhere! I was dragging my paws by now and my tail was low. I was dehydrated, and then out of all of it I saw it! Like heavenly thing it was I saw the clearest river! I ran to it and began to lap ravenously. It's funny how I got used to my new form so easily. I was running just fine I could feel everything; I was fine with my new hearing, though it was weird. The ears and tail felt really weird. The new weight was different than my normal butt and hair.
After filling myself full I jumped in the water to cool off; it was really hot! I didn't stay in there to long considering night is cold and it was coming just a bit sooner than I thought.
~Time Skip~
GOD DAMN IT! I'm freezing my ass off! Ok so when I said it was coming sooner than I thought, make that two hours sooner! I was trudging along grumpy as hell when I came upon an old fox hole. Crawling up to it I could feel the warmth emanating from it. Without hesitation I crawled inside. It wasn't at all snug, sure it was warm, but the inside was quite big! At least I could have a nice warm sleep.
Or so I thought. There had been foot steps outside of the den, which I thought was Mr. I'm Blue. But then there was a smaller silhouette entering the tunnel. Before I knew it I was getting a loud growl and also having my ear chewed off….literally.
"Who are you and why are you in my den!" It was a guy, and while I had the chance I caught the site of bright orange. Looking him….glancing him over again I saw that he was a small tiger.
"Who are you!" He said bighting harder.
"Ow-ow-ooww! Ok, okay! I was just looking for a warm place to stay! LET GO!"
"I also asked who you are! You couldn't smell my scent?"
"Alright! My name is Unique! And what the hell do you mean by yo- I mean I think I just missed it…"
"You can't smell it can you,"
"I can smell just fine thank you!"
"No you can't"
"YES!"
"No you can't"
"I can!"
"Can you?"
"…..S-so what if I have a little trouble with smelling!"
"It's not little trouble is it?"
"….no," god who was this guy! Mr. know it all! What's with me! Naming people off! I was becoming very suspicious of this tiger. He backed off and looked away towards the entrance. I was kind of confused then he went to one of the corners. Before I knew it there was a small roll tossed in front of me. It looked glazed but different. I looked at him then the…'roll'…then him again.
"It's dango, just eat it,"
"…weren't you just trying to tear my ear off? Now you're giving me food,"
"I think we should talk," okay that's not creepy at all.
"Okay, I think you're stuck in the situation I am,"
"And what do you mean by that"
"Are you really a human?" Oh god how the hell do I respond to that! Wait he said he's in the same situation as me right? So does that mean he's a human too?
"…yes, how'd you know that?"
"My name is William Uke and I've been stuck here for a while. I am in fact a human….tiger at the moment."
"What! You're that guy reported missing!" We stared at each other before he gestured to the 'dango'. I was very unsure of everything, then he spoke up again!
"That mark on your head gives it away, mine is on my tail."
"So if you know so much then…how do we turn back?"
"This may sound pretty stupid but sleep under a Sakura tree, though there are things I must te- WHERE THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING!"
"Sakura trees are cherry blossom trees right? So I'm going to go find one!"
"Will you listen to me! There are things I need to tell you!"
"I am not going to listen to a tiger cub just so it can complain! Bye!"
"Fine but at least grab this blanket," he said pulling a blanket from his den. I looked at him just a little confused.
"Why do I need to bring a blanket?"
"You don't want to listen to me, so this is the least I can do for whatever pride and joy you have left,"
"What?"
"Never mind!"
So with that I ran off. What the hell was he trying to tell me? Save me my pride and joy? God I just want to get out of this place, for the first time in my life I want to go home! I just kept running and for some reason kept the blanket harnessed on my back. I was defiantly eager to get back to normal no matter what that William says.
Luckily for me it only took me about thirty minutes to find a small tree, bad part was it was on a hill. I didn't care, it meant normalcy. I did have to admit it was really cold tonight. I put the blanket out and crawled under for the warmth and as if it couldn't come any faster, I fell into a deep sleep.
~Courtney's POV~
It was night and I was all but awake, Tsuki and Tori were fighting to keep me standing. As if our luck the cosplayers we were following had stopped for the night. Forget being careful! I flopped down and before I knew it….I was simply asleep.
I would say it was a wonderful sleep, but when I dreamt…it wasn't much of a dream. All I did was walk around in darkness and of course dream of my past. Nothing unusual so it wasn't much of a dream.
When I woke Tori was gone but the little black fur ball was curled up near my back. I swear if I wasn't an animal myself I would love to freakin squeeze it! I am not complaining about being an animal considering I am one of the most awsomest animals ever! And if any one complains about my non-word my reply will be "it came out of my mouth didn't it?"
Ha-ha, I think it was about time we got up. Actually I think it was time for us to start sprinting! When I looked at the group of cosplayers…. I regret looking that way.
Oh. My. F-ing. GOD! For cosplayers these guys have the tightest freaking abs I've ever seen! I looked to my side and saw a sleepy Tsuki walking right up.
"Courtney, what'cha looking at?" I threw my self over her. Though she was just a bit older than me, there was no way she would see what I just saw. Oh the abs weren't the only thing visible. Just in case you're wondering they were bathing.
"Courtney! Get the hell off me! Can't breath!"
"The vieweth has tainted thy EYES!"
"What, wait what view!"
"NO! You must not look yonder!" But alas! My friend has forever been scarred. She turned away slowly, beady eyes wide. She looked at me wondering what the hell she just saw. At least that was something we both were scared to know. Tori at that moment was looking at us like we were crazy; we now were.
"Umm, may I ask why you guys look so traumatized?"
"No, no you may not."
"Oookaay theen, So! I think it's about time we head out."
"Not quite yet," Tori looked at me confused.
"Why not?"
"Just trust me, I don't think they're ready yet either."
"What?"
"Oi! Ok, let me put it this way; if you look over there, YOU WILL FOREVER BE SCARRED!"
~Dread the Time Skip~
We were finally on the move following the now creepy cosplayers. Tori took my advice and didn't see the awful sight. Me and Tsuki walked in silence not mentioning a word on what we saw; heck we didn't say anything plain out! It was just ongoing silence. Silence till I heard yelling. I know it was important to follow the men, but I wanted to see it! I began to run off before I turned around to tell them to just keep going.
After running for five minutes I came to a clearing with an old tree. Sure it was a tight clearing but it was a clearing. The yelling from earlier had stopped and was over for about two minutes. But the thing that I wanted to see was gone and all that was left was a tiger sitting there shaking its head. Once I moved closer it perked its ears and looked up.
"Who's there?" I didn't step out I only stood there.
"Who is there!" Alright so I figured why not.
"Okay, so once again who are you?"
"Name's Courtney"
"And may I ask do you know a 'Unique'?"
"Yes?"
"Come with me," I looked at him. Cue evil raccoon grin.
"If I want to live?"
"What, no. If you want to see your friend again,"
"Ha-ha! So you are threatening me!"
"No,"
"I know just wanted to pester you"
"Considering many people think of you as a pest (meaning cause she's a raccoon) I would see why,"
So I followed him, and continued on about a mark indicating that we were human; mine was on my ear. I found out everything about him. I also found out that Unique was safe, hopefully.
But what I didn't expect to find...
Will have to be found out in the next chapter,
