Thank you so much for those who reviewed on the last chapter. I hope you like this one because it is packed with a lot of things going on. I also added a bit of Romance in this chapter...if that's okay with you guys.
Recap: They all turned around to see the new comers only for a few to gasp in shock. Up ahead near the entrance stood Volt (Pichu), Monferno, Croconaw, Houndoom, Swampert, Bayleef, and Absol. Next to their respectable pokemon were Ashley Valiska, Deidara, Sasori Akasuna, Itachi Uchiha, Kisame Hoshigaki, Javerio, and Temari.
'S-Sasori nii…D-Deidara…I-Itachi?'
'So that's Sasori Akasuna, Sakura's and Kiyosha's cousin, plus Deidara and Itachi who were their childhood friends too.
That was all the pink-silver haired girl and silvery white-blue haired boy could think of.
It was getting really intense out here with everyone having a stare down. The seven new comers moved closer to Sakura and Suigetsu along with their pokemon.
"I'll say it again one more time" Sakura gritted her teeth in anger "Give me back my Luxio!" Sakura demanded.
Iris grinned and repeated, "And I'll say it once again, if you want him back, then come and GET HIM!!"
With no commands from his trainer Zangoose disappeared and quickly got behind Weavile and Glaceon, surprising the two. The ferret cat's right claw was glowing a deadly white and he was getting ready to use Focus Punch.
"WHAT THE- DODGE IT QUICKLY!" Sakura and Suigetsu shouted desperately.
The two ice types jumped out of the way, one going left and the other going right but before they both could get away any further, Zangoose caught the two by their tails with his foot and with all his powered up energy he swiftly slugged the two in the face, landing a super effective hit. It knocked the two right into a tree, breaking it on contact. The two tried to get up but with their tired bodies from battling very hard yesterday, they haven't had the chance to fully recover. Plus that focus punch was way stronger than it should be and with that they fell back down to the ground. Luckily, they were able to stand again, much to the relief of their trainer and friends.
"Thank god you two are alright…" Sakura and Suigetsu said happily.
The two pokemon smiled weakly but it didn't last long because their pupils dilated and they both began to fall back slowly, missing the shrill calls of their friends and trainers.
"Weav…/Glac…" was all they could cry out before the two went unconscious.
The pinkette and silvery white-blue haired teen ran forward to the fallen pokemon with the rest following and returned their pokemon into their pokeballs. Just when the two finished, the enemies jumped in front of them.
"Grrr…that is one strong Zangoose." Javerio commented with a glare.
"One that can pack a super powerful Focus Punch too." Ashley, Deidara, and Itachi added
"Thank you…and of course I am." Zangoose mocked bowed and grinned at the grim faces of Sakura and Suigetsu.
The silvery white-blue haired teen turned toward his friend with a solemn look on his face.
"Do you have any pokemon left with you besides Espeon here and your captured Luxio?" he asked and Sakura raised a brow, but got what he was saying when she saw the look on his face.
"Only one, the rest are at the pokemon center" she answered "You don't have yours I assume." She guessed.
Suigetsu nodded and said "I left the rest of them at the pokemon center too."
Sakura sighed and took out a great ball. She threw it into to the air and out came a water weasel wearing a black aqua dropped designed vest.
"Bui Bui." Buizel said before taking a stance and glared at Zangoose while Espeon took her place by her friend and she too glared hatefully at the enemy. She really didn't appreciate the way Zangoose took out Weavile and Glaceon like that.
"Choose all the pokemon you want, it's not gonna make any difference." Iris laughed mockingly.
Ashley, Sasori, Deidara, and the others sent a worried glance at the silver streaked pinkette.
"Buizel, use Water Gun and Espeon, follow that attack up with Zap Cannon!" Sakura shouted.
Buizel spat out a huge bullet of water and Espeon shot her electric ball into the water, combining the attacks together and making a huge electrifying water bullet. The combined attack flew at the enemies and it only managed to hit Seviper and Carnivine because Zangoose moved out of the way in time.
"Flamethrower/Water Gun!" Deidara and Sasori suddenly commanded.
"Mud Shot/Razor Wind!" Kisame and Temari jumped in as well.
The fire monkey and the water dinosaur like pokemon fired their attacks together and combined them too. The second combined attack which was a muddy glowing razor blade came around the corner and the two new attacks hit Zangoose dead on.
"Arrrrghhhh!" the cat ferret grunted in pain as he fell to his knees. However, he opened his mouth and fired a fully charged Solarbeam at the four interferences.
Wide-eyed, Monferno and Croconaw ducked out of fear, however, Swampert and Absol weren't so lucky as they were both hit. The powerful super effective hit completely knocked the mudfish out and Absol managed to get back up on his feet weakly. Just then, a clone of Zangoose burst out of the ground with a glowing fist and an eerie grinning face that slightly imitated Absol.
"Abbbbb!" the disastrous pokemon could only meek out in shock before he was cleanly struck in the face and into the air "soooooool!!!!!!" he cried out as he fell back to the ground, knocked out for the count.
"Noooooo!!!!!!!" Kisame and Temari screamed out in unison and ran over to their fallen pokemon.
Unknown to the gang except for their allies, Tyran and Team Rocket grinned wickedly from their hiding spot (AN: Jessie, James, and Meowth snuck away earlier after they were defeated to hide with Tyran).
'Time to cut down their numbers even further.'they all thought in unison.
'Time to kick some (twerp) ass!' Shiny Meowth, Meowth, Yanmega, and Cacnea (AN: yes, James got his Cacnea back) thought.
"Double Team and Icy Water Pulse Combination!" Tyran's voice boomed into the area.
"Silver Wind/Pin Missile!" Jessie and James' voices were heard as well.
Multiple beams of ice with a ball of water inside came out of nowhere and struck the caught off guard Houndoom and Bayleef. Then a sparkly shower of colorful wind with missile of needles came out of the sky and hit the fire dog and grass pokemon who tried to dodge them, but it was inevitable.
"Bayyyyy/Hooouur!!!!" they both cried out in pain and fell over, knocked out right next Sakura's pokemon who looked down at them in shock.
"Damn it…" Itachi and Javerio cursed in unison and returned their pokemon back into their pokeballs.
'Where did those attacks come from (yeah)?' the gang thought in unison.
"Wow" Iris laughed "I knew my Zangoose was super strong but getting knocked out that quick seems pretty embarrassing especially the ex-akatsuki members' pokemon!" she taunted.
"The rest of our pokemon are resting at the pokemon center and our current ones right now are still recovering from fight with Team Sound yesterday!"Ashley defended/admitted truthfully for her friends and herself with a growl.
"Team Sound eh, I see…" Zangoose mused "however, that won't save you...seeing that the only one left to battle me is Haruno's Buizel and Espeon. "he laughed.
Sensing something underneath him, he stepped to the side to avoid Volt (Pichu) who came out of the ground to use Iron Tail. Giving the mouse a bored look, he sent Pichu away from him with a small reverse kick.
"Let's get serious now." Zangoose said with an evil grin and walked forward.
Itachi noticed movement in the tree to his right and demanded with narrowed eyes "why don't you tell your buddies to come on out."
"Aa, so you noticed us, I expected nothing less from an Uchiha like you." Tyran chuckled as he, Shiny Meowth, Team Rocket, and their pokemon jumped down in front of the gang.
"I so have to agree with that." Shiny Meowth grinned.
The whole gang besides Sakura gasped in shock.
"Another talking pokemon, un." Deidara commented.
"A shiny one at that." Sasori added.
"Team Rocket and their Meowth was enough, but another one is asking for too much." Temari groaned as her and everyone else ignored the indigent 'hey' from said Meowth.
"Don't talk like I'm not here!" Meowth glared at them.
"Us too!" Jessie and James added in.
"Oh we haven't forgotten you alright" Ashley said "We're surprised you guys haven't high tailed your asses out of here yet." she snickered with a raised brow.
That remake earned her three menacing glares from the three.
"As if we would!" Meowth retorted angrily for Jessie, James, and himself. He then went back the the cage that Luxio's trapped in and sat down in the grass, brooding and mumbling to himself.
Some of the gang sighed and Ashley shrugged and said "eh, it's your funeral then."
"Enough stalling, Meowth, use Thunderbolt!" Tyran shouted.
"Zangoose, you use Thunderbolt too!" Iris commanded.
"Yanmega, Silver Wind!" Jessie said.
"Cacnea, use Pin Missile!" James commanded.
The four released their attacks at Croconaw and Monferno who frozed.
"Bui bui!" the water weasel jumped in front of the two and summoned a greenish-yellow barrier to protect them all.
"Espe!" the psychic cat released a Swift attack at the four enemies.
Shiny Meowth grinned and did the same thing as Buizel did too.
"Damn it!" Sakura cursed when she saw the barrier block her Espeon's attack.
Zangoose, Shiny Meowth, Yanmega, and Cacnea then attacked together and started to destroy the five pokemon. Luxio watched on with a hopeless look on his face as he saw all of friends and his trainer get beat up. Team Rocket's Meowth, who was looking after the prisoner, laughed at the gang's failed attempts to fight back.
Croconaw, Monferno, Espeon, and Pichu cried out as they were thrown into the ground and Zangoose came rushing at them with a Crush Claw, ready to finish them off only for Buizel (who knocked away the shiny Meowth he was fighting with) to rush over and block the attack.
"Buiiiii!!" the water weasel hissed as he took the damage from the attack and then got hit hard from behind by an Iron Tail from Meowth. This caused him to go flying and smash into Jessie, James, their pokemon, and finally Meowth and they all flew high into the skies.
"Noooo!!!!!!!" James hollered in irritation.
"This is not right!!!"Jessie screeched in anger, red in the face.
"You two boneheads blew it this time!!!" Meowth shouted angrily at his two friends.
"Mime mime mime mime!" James' Mime Jr. popped out of its pokeball and added in his consults.
"Wobbbbbbuffet!" Jessie's Wobbuffet popped out of its pokeball too and said his agreement
"Looks like Team Rocket is blasting off again!!!!!!" they screamed in unison as they disappeared in the distance with a twink.
"Lux Luxio!" the electric pokemon tried to reach out the Buizel but screamed out in pain when bolts of electricity shocked him from touching the bars of his cage. He knew both him and Buizel won't last very long with the injuries they have.
Screams filled the air and reached two's ears when they heard their friends and trainer getting mauled by Zangoose and Meowth. When they saw a slighty bleeding and scratched up Sakura, they lost it. Pissed off, the two jumped up with renewed energy and let out a mighty cry as they both began glow. They both were getting bigger and changing in all kinds of way. The two were definitely evolving for sure.
"Take this!!" Zangoose laughed and threw another Crush Claw at Sakura but Deidara managed to get her out of the way. Unfortunately, he took the full brute force of the attack on his right shoulder. They both grunted as they crashed to the ground a few away from the ferret cat pokemon.
"Are you alright Sakura-chan?" he asked, but inwardly hissed as the wound on his shoulder started bleeding.
Sakura looked up and gave him a reassured smile "I'm fine Dei and thanks."
"No problem, yeah." he said.
Sakura looked at his injured shoulder with concern and was about to speak, but Deidara shook his head and gave her a reassured look saying that he was fine. They both jumped when Sasori suddenly came crashing to the ground right next to them. Apparently, Croconaw had pushed his trainer out of the way to fire a Water Gun at the shiny Meowth who was going to use Shadow Claw on the red head.
"Danna/Sasori nii?!"
"Don't worry, I'm fine." Sasori reassured the silver pinkette and blond.
Hearing a cry, the three swiftly turned around and saw Monferno, Croconaw, and Espeon on ground shaking and Pichu being crushed in Zangoose's grasp. He was then knocked out instantly when Zangoose head butted him. Zangoose then dropped the unmoving electric mouse and disappeared to take care of the other humans while an injured Ashley came running to her pal.
"They're paralyzed and Pichu is out." Sakura gasped in surprise.
"Exactly." A clone of Meowth grinned and appeared in front of the three pokemon and raised his paw to sheath his claws and deliver his final attack.
Poor Monferno, Espeon, and Croconaw tried to attack back with a fire, normal, and water attack but the paralysis prevented them from doing so. That was it for the three and they finally blacked out when Meowth used Slash.
Deidara, Sakura, and Sasori looked down and weakly said "Return." The three were returned back into their pokeballs.
The Real Meowth laughed and said "now you don't have any usable pokemon left to battle" he walked over to the three and with a maniacal look he raised his claws to deliver the blow but it never came as a huge orange blur flew by and used Ice Punch. The attack instantly frozed the cat pokemon on contact and he fell over, unable to battle anymore. The three took a good look at their savior who landed in front of them and Sakura gasped in shock.
"B-Buizel, y-you…" she trailed off as the newly evolved and huge water weasel turned his head around.
"Float!" Floatzel grinned and gave her thumbs up.
"Seems like your Buizel evolved." Deidara and Sasori said, their eyes lit up in glee/happiness for her.
"Now that Meowth's down, we can take care of Zangoose." Sasori seriously said as they got up off the ground.
"Float Float Floatzel!" the big water weasel said, pointing into the direction where everyone else was getting beat up by a………………………………LUXRAY?!!!!!!!!!!!
"He evolved as well." Sakura said, shocked once again.
"I guess so (un)." Deidara and Sasori replied, they were just as shocked as Sakura was.
They all got up and ran to everyone else's side to watch.
"Lux…RAYYYYYY!!" Luxray released a devastating Discharge attack.
The ferret cat pokemon stumbled back, paralyzed, and didn't have enough time to dodge the second attack as Luxray hit Zangoose dead on with a Signal Beam.
The damage and pain from all those attacks earlier started catching up on him and he could no longer take it anymore. With a weak defeated cry he collapsed to the ground, knocked out.
Seeing that the enemy was down and the battle was over, everyone whooped and cheered while Iris and Tyran returned their pokemon back to their pokeballs.
"You were very lucky." the girl scowled.
"Though you won't be the next time around...when we meet again that is." the man glared.
After that, the two disappeared from the area, leaving the gang injured and tired.
*THIRTY MINUTES LATER*
Pokemon Center/Sealiso Town- 8:00 p.m.
Sakura and everyone else were resting up and patching up their wound's from the big battle earlier. Suigetsu got up to go see if his pokemon was finished healing by Nurse Shizune.
"Your pokemon are all fully healed and tell your friends that theirs are healed as well." she said.
"Thank you, I will." he took his pokeballs and walked back to his group who were standing up by now.
"Well, it was nice seeing you guys, but we're going to hit the road now." Ashley said.
"Take care Sakura and I'm glad you're reunited with your cousin and old friends." Suigetsu said with a smirk.
The pink-silver haired girl blushed and said "Thanks Sui-kun."
"You're welcome." he smiled toothily when the girl blushed even more and ignored the death glares that was aimed at him by a certain blond and Javerio.
Ashley, Temari, Pichu, and Suigetsu waved good-bye and left to go retrieve their pokemon then head on outside. Sasori, Itachi, and Kisame got up to go get their pokemon and their friends' too seeing as they're not going to go get them themselves. The empty spot on the sofa on Sakura's right was instantly taken by Deidara, leaving Javerio to gap and glare at him. Nonetheless, he left the room though that's what the blond and silver pinkette thought.
"I know it's a little late to say this but……it's nice to see to see you again after all these years, yeah." Deidara said, throwing an arm around the girl, which surprised her.
"Yeah, you too." she shyly replied with a small blush.
Deidara smirked when he saw this and leaned down to whisper in her ear "You're really cute when you blush like that, Sakura-chan, un." he teased.
Sakura turned a deeper shade of red but frozed when he swiftly pecked her cheek. She remembered something like this happened nine years ago, a year before her father died and Sasori disappearing along with Deidara and Itachi.
*Flashback (Sakura= 6 yrs old, Kiyosha = 9 yrs old, Sasori = 10 yrs old, and Deidara = 8 yrs old)*
Floroma Crystal Town/The Park/10:00 a.m.
Laughter filled the air as a little girl with pink-silver hair was running in the flower fields being chased a wild Poochyena, a wild Electrike, a wild Furret, and her cousin's pokemon he got three days ago, Gligar.
"Ooof." Sakura grunted as she tripped and fell into the flower beds and was then jumped by the four.
"Hehehehe, s-stop, that t-tickles." she giggled, trying to get away from the licks they were giving her.
Seeing that the girl had enough, the four got off and let the girl sit up.
"I guess you four win again." Sakura sheepishly smiled, rubbing the back of her head.
"Chen!"
"Trike!"
"Furreeet!"
"Gli!"
They all smiled at their human playmate but stopped and curiously tilted their heads a bit to the side when they saw a familiar person sneaking up behind the girl. That person quickly covered her eyes with their hands.
"Guess whooooo?"
Little Sakura was startled for a second but recovered when she recognized whose voice it is.
"Dei-kun!" she smiled and turned around and jumped at the blond haired boy.
"Whoa…" the unexpected hug made them both fall to the grassy ground with her on top and him underneath the girl.
"You should really stop doing that Sakura-chan, un." he sighed and gave her a funny look.
"What, am I too heavy for you to catch Dei?" Sakura teased with a laugh.
"Har, har, real funny." he rolled his eyes but smiled at her nonetheless.
Finally, the girl realized what an interesting position her and Deidara were in and she blushed. She then rolled off of him and sat up, unaware of the blond staring at her with a sly look and mischievous grin on his face. He knew he saw that little adorable blush on her rosy cheeks...but she didn't know that.
He sat closer to her and whispered in her ear "You're really cute when you blush like that, Sakura-chan, un." he teased.
Sakura blushed even more but frozed when Deidara leaned down and swiftly pecked her cheek. This caused her to turn a full tomato red that would rival her cousin's hair.
"DEIDARA, WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING KISSING MY COUSIN LIKE THAT AND SITTING SO CLOSE TO HER TOO?!!!!"
Speak of the devil, the red head was running towards the two with an angry look on his red face.
"Well I gotta split, see ya later Sakura-chan." He winced and got up.
Boldly, he bent down and kissed her on the mouth then quickly got up and ran off once Sasori finally reached the spot the blond was in a second ago. For that little display, the red head got even angrier, he was now blowing steam from his ears. He then ran off at supersonic speed to go catch that nimrod. Shocked, Sakura touched her lips but jumped up when she heard her brother speak up from behind.
"He sure does like you a lot imouto." he commented.
Sakura gave him a knowingly look and said "I know that and I like him too, he's really a great friend."
Kiyosha laughed and silver pinkette glared at him. He seriously couldn't believe that his little sister didn't get it. She may be the top student in her pokemon academy class and smart like her other friend Shikamaru, but she was really dense when it came to things like crushes/love.
"What's so funny?!" she demanded angrily.
"You really don't get it, do you?" he asked and the silver pinkette shook her head no, a question mark appeared above her head stating that she's confused.
"Deidara like likes you, Sakura." He said again.
"What do you mean by like likes aniki?" Sakura asked confused.
Kiyosha slapped his head with sweat-drop and sighed heavily.
"You can be so dense sometimes, Sakura." he mumbled, watching his sister who was watching Sasori chase Deidara around the park.
*End Flashback*
Those memories made Sakura smile. Those were the best moments of her childhood like. At that time she never got what her brother meant but as she got older, she began to realize (with the help of her inner) that she really DID have feeling for her friend but didn't know what is and shrugged it off. Those feelings of friendship grew and turned into something more, something the she craved for the past few years but ignored them since she thought Deidara wasn't going to like her anymore even after he disappeared. But now that Deidara is back, those pent up feelings came back and hit her full force as if her chest was about to explode. She was broken out of her thoughts to Deidara calling out her name.
"Reminiscing are we, yeah?" he asked.
"Yeah." Sakura answered with a peaceful smile and snuggled more into her friend, scratch that, I mean crush "well…I remembered one time where Sasori nii chased you around the park just because you kissed me, twice actually." she explained with a blush.
Hearing this particular memory made Deidara chuckle. Oh he definitely remembered that one, it was one of his favorites because he not only got the chance to get his red haired friend mad but he also got a chance to kiss the girl he liked.
"About that kiss…I…really meant to do that Sakura-chan…because for a while I came to…like you more than just a…friend." he shifted his gaze to look down at the girl who was leaning up against him.
Sakura stared at the blond with an unknown look on her face. Looking deep into his lone blue eye, she can definitely and clearly see the admiration and love he held for her. It was so overwhelmingly powerful that it awakened her own feelings that she had buried so long ago to the surface.
"Deidara, I-"
"I understand if your feelings are not the same as mines…but for you, I can wait." He said solemnly and looked away only for him to look up when Sakura grabbed his chin.
"That's not what I was going to say Deidara" she giggled and leaned forward "What I was going to say is that I…f-feel the same w-way too." she confessed.
Shocked to the core, Deidara could only pull her closer and fully onto his lap. He looked deep into the girl's jade green eyes, searching them to see if she was lying or not.
"You really mean that Sakura-chan?" he asked not realizing his face moving closer to hers.
"Yes Deidara" her face moving closer to his until they were less than an inch apart from each other "I do…"
This made the blond happy and relieved.
"Arigato." he whispered before capturing her lips with his in a deep, passionate kiss and then wrapping his arms around her waist.
Shocked, Sakura stilled for a second before throwing her arms around his neck and kissing him back. He licked her bottom lip, asking for entrance to which she granted it. He moved his tongue around inside and licked every part of her sweet cavern, memorizing and tasting it before he found her tongue and grabbed it with his. They were having a tongues war battle to see who would win first, neither of them wanted to give up. Though in the end his won. Deidara then tilted his head to deepen the kiss and that earned him a nice, loving moan from the girl. He groaned however, when Sakura twisted her hands into his long hair and started massaging his scalp. Right now they both felt like they were on cloud nine and did not care if someone happens to come by and see them (even their own friends). Lost in the own world the two did not notice a pair of eyes glaring right at them until the mysterious figure had enough and left the two in their own privacy. Few minutes later, Deidara and Sakura pulled away, out of breath. Once they got their breathing back to normal they smiled at each other and leaned their foreheads against one another.
"Sakura-chan…will you be my girlfriend?" he asked.
"Hai, Dei-kun." She answered.
Grinning, Deidara swooped in kissed his newly lover again and pulled back, getting up off the couch and pulling Sakura up with him.
"Let's go meet the others and get our pokemon, Dei-kun." Sakura suggested and took his hand in hers.
Deidara looked down at her and nodded and they both walked out the lounging room, hand in hand. When the two reached the main room they first grabbed their pokeballs back from Nurse Shizune and walked over the corner area where Itachi, Sasori, Luxray, and two strangers in dark cloaks stood at.
"Hey, where's Kisame and Javerio at?" Deidara asked as the gang turned towards the two.
"Kisame went back to Akatsuki to keep an eye out for things and Javerio went with him." Itachi answered.
"He seemed really upset about something" Sasori said and looked down at the couple's hands "but I could see why now." Strangely and surprisingly, he was not angry with the blond this time. In fact, it was the exact opposite.
The others looked down as well and they smiled/smirked, happy for the two. Sakura looked at the two strangers and she gasped with wide eyes. The first person was a guy with spiky-layered forest green hair with pale blue streaks and had light lavender colored eyes. The second person was a girl with dark reddish-blond hair with silver streaks and she had hazel colored eyes.
"Jiremuno, Hirena, what are you two doing here?" Sakura asked.
The sudden question made everyone else quiet and the room became tense from the eerie silence.
"We have a problem." Hirena said.
From the tone of her voice and the look on her and Jiremuno's face the blond and silver pinkette could tell that this was a serious matter.
"Reports from Silverblaze City tells us that they some organization invaded their city" Jiremuno explained "and those representatives of your organization, Akatsuki, *points to Deidara, Sasori, and Itachi* Crystalsound and Sound are fighting…they're causing too much havoc over there."
The gang gasped in shock and Sasori gathered his bearings before the others did.
"But isn't that where-"
"Yes, that's where the ancient relics and the lake that says a legendary pokemon are supposed to be at." Jiremuno clicked his teeth in frustration.
"Whatever they're up to we need to go there and find out what they're after." Sasori suggested.
Everyone else nodded in agreement at the plan.
"Don't forget about us."
"Yeah."
They all turned around to see Kiyosha and Brainyu walking up to them.
"We're in this together too, besides…Leader-sama just called me and said for me to go along with you guys." Brainyu explained.
"Leader-sama?" Sasori, Deidara, and Itachi mused in confusion but looked down to see what the boy was wearing and it was the same as Jiremuno and Hirena's. They now got what the boy meant and they vaguely remembered Sakura wearing the same cloak. The three concluded that she was in the same organization too, now that news surprised them.
"So you and Sakura must be the other two Tsukikumo members our leader spoke about." Sasori said in realization.
"Though we didn't believe him at first." Itachi and Deidara said in unison.
"It's nice to see you again Sasori nii." Kiyosha grinned and walked over to the red head, swinging an arm around his cousin and ruffled his hair which he did not like.
"Yeah, you too." Sasori smirked and gave his cousin a hard noggie as payback and Deidara let go of Sakura's hand and joined in too, not wanting to be left out.
"Owww oww OWW, cut it out you guys!" the white-red haired teen whined but sighed happily when the two finally let go of him only to growl in irritation when Itachi walked over and ruffled his hair, messing it up even more.
"Hey!" he protested and Itachi chuckled, moving his hand away when Kiyosha tried to slap it away and said "It's good to be back."
Kiyosha looked up at the raven head and replied "Yes it is."
Sakura then broke up the friendly reunion and said "Alright gang, let's head to Silverblaze City first thing in the morning.
"Yeah!" Everyone else agreed.
They all left the main room and went into their respective rooms to pack and rest up for their long journey tomorrow.
AN: Finally, chapter six is done. That long, slighty longer than my other chapters but I guess that's a good thing. This excitement is over but will pick back up later in the next chapter (which I'm halfway done writing it). A certain group and a person who we haven't seen awhile will appear in the next chapter. Can you guess who it is ^_^? Sadly, all good things must come to an end, a few more chapters left (since this is the climax part) and this story will be DONE!!!!!!!
Remember to read and review people, plz.
It'll help a lot if you do that. ^_^
