Click...click...click... went the mouse.
"GAAAAAAAAH! STUPID COMPUTER!' Pein gave the computer a large kick and smoke poured out of it.
"For god sakes! Now my whole evil plans will be under hold...AGAIN!" He muttered taking his wallet out.
"Good. Time to go shopping." He muttered again, going out of his office and literally slamming the door behind him.
Konan eyed him as he walked past.
"Everything okay leader?" She asked.
"Yeah. The world is full of rainbows and butterflies, milkshakes and ponies!" He said sarcastically.
"The computer is down?"
"...Yes."
Konan shrugged. "Can I go with you? I accidentally smashed my tv remote. And I need shampoo. Also that new book called 'How to kidnap the Kyuubi'
"...Shampoo and books okay but why the hell did you 'accidentally' break the television remote?"
Konan laughed. "Oh that! They didn't show my favorite show today."
"I...see.."
At that moment, Kisame walked it. "Hey guys! Wassup!" He said grinning like a fool.
"The ceiling." Konan rolled her eyes. "See we're going to the shopping center. Wanna come?"
Kisame grinned wider. "Would I? I was just about to go with Itachi!"
"Why Itachi?" Pein asked.
"He said as long as Tobi keeps talking and hugging people like a child, he needs anti- people powder."
"...Uh huh. Only that?"
"Well..." Kisame furrowed his eyebrows. "OH YEAH! He said he's buying a new car since you broke his one down three weeks ago."
"...Ahhh...oh yeah. That...haunted house...FORGET IT! Anyone else going?" Pein demanded.
"Everyone except for Tobi. He's sleeping." Kisame said brightly.
"Okay then we'll all go." Pein announced. "Hurry, everyone out!"
The group got themselves outside their evil hideout. (which was behind a large rock) and readied themselves.
"Jeez lets go!" Itachi tugged on his light brown wig. "Its too warm inside this thing!"
(of course they'd be wearing disguises. What? You all thought there aren't ANBU patrolling each village? ^^)
Konan looked at Pein worriedly. "Hey, are you sure we're doing the right thing?" She asked.
"We're going shopping." He stated as a matter of fact way.
"THAT is the problem!" Konan said. "I mean, we are leaving Tobi behind! Who knows what he'll do to our hideout!"
"Probably flame it." Itachi said.
"Or flood it." Kisame grinned.
"Or blow it up." Deidara muttered.
"Or eat all my food." Zetsu growled. Everyone turned to look at him.
"What?" He said.
Pein raised his hands up. "LOOK." He said. "We'll just quickly go to the center and come back QUICKLY. OK?"
Everyone nodded.
"Good! Any questions?"
Itachi raised his hand.
"Yes?"
Itachi cleared his throat. "What guarantee do you have that Tobi won't but the place on fire?'
"...I threw away the flame thrower Itachi."
"That's not the point." Itachi sweat dropped.
Tobi woke up with a yawn. He stretched himself and whistling a happy tune, grabbed his towel and walked to the bathroom.
To his surprise, there was no queue! (since he was the one taking the longest to to take a shower, he had to wait until the last)
"Itachi senpai? Deidara senpai? Leader sama? Did you all turn invisible?" He wondered out loud. "Hmm..." After a while of thinking, he walked into the bathroom and turned on the shower...
(After 30 minutes...)
"I'M READY!" He yelled jumping out of the bathroom. Silence greeted him again...save for his echo.
"Oh yeah...everyone is invisible." Tobi grinned going to the kitchen. It had not occurred to him that being invisible did not necessarily mean that the voice have to be cut off as well...yet.
As he neared the fridge, he thought he saw two notes stuck on it. First one read:
Dear Tobi. If you have thought all the Akatsuki members are invisible
or we have been turned to mutants and flew away to mars, THINK AGAIN!
We just left to the supermarket to do some shopping since we are low on supplies. (I smashed my tv remote) So,
I trust you can be a good boy and stay by yourself here? Lock the doors and windows.
Don't let any strangers in (all but us and the tailed beast hosts) and don't answer the door until you are sure it is us.
Don't go poking around in random places in the hideout and ESPECIALLY, don't go into my room! (Unless you need some weapons to capture
the kyuubi!) We'll be back at around 3 O'clock. (Because we may need to stop at a cafe' ^^)
Ps. I'll get you a teddy bear and cookies!
Love, Konan.
"Oh...Next..." Tobi read the other one.
Okay Tobi listen up! We the Akatsuki have gone for shopping so you'll be alone for a while un.
SO DON'T YOU DO ANYTHING STUPID WHILE WE ARE GONE UN! DON'T TOUCH MY CLAY, MY ROOM
MY STUFF OR ANYTHING ELSE I CLAIMED AS MINE UN! (Unless you want to meet your grave the moment I reach home!)
Your Senpai, Deidara the genius artist!
"Ohh..." Tobi said. "So that means Tobi will be alone...all alone...in this...creepy...big...lonely...creepy...CREEEEEEEEPPPY HIDEOUT! AAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!" He began to scream and run around the place waving his arms around and knocking down vases, tables and chairs as he did so.
After a while, he stopped.
'Whats that noise!' He thought. He still was high time nervous from the last visit to the haunted house and still wasn't looking forward to another ghost encounter...
"H-Hello! WHO IS HERE! Whoever it is, go back!" He commanded, trying to sound tough. The sound came again and then he realized that the sound came from the door.
Slowly, he walked to it and timidly opened it with a gulp.
"Hello!" A warm voice made him opened his eyes. There stood a boy with yellow hair in an orange outfit and a girl with pink hair and greens eyes...
'S-S-S-S-S-SHE'S THE GIRL WHO KILLED SASORI DANNA!' He realized alarmed.
"S-Say I'm lost. Do you know what this place around here is?" She asked quietly with a smile. Her soft voice made him lose his fear.
"Oh this is Akatsuki!" He said proudly.
"Akatsuki?" The girl cocked her head.
"Never heard of it." The boy muttered.
"It's a very big organization which has lots of love and happiness!" He said putting his arms up. "Tobi is very happy here and Tobi is a good boy!"
"I see. Sounds fun! My name is Haruno Sakura. Nice to meet you." She held her hand out and he shook it.
"And I am Uzumaki Naruto the future hokage!" The boy held a thumbs up.
"OHH GOODY! MORE FRIENDS! Would you like some tea?" He invited them in.
"Oh thank you! I'd like some dango too!" Sakura said
"I want ramen." naruto pouted.
"OOH TOBI LOVES DANGO TOO! AND TOBI HAS LOTS OF RAMEN!" Tobi yelled. Naruto cheered at that.
"So you are Konoha ninja?" Tobi asked.
"Yeah." Sakura said as she stepped inside. "We got separated from our teammates and friends." She frowned at Naruto. "If it wasn't for Naruto's carelessness!"
"Oii Sakura chaaaannnn..." Naruto whined.
"Don't worry! Tobi will help you find them! After tea!"
"Okay!"
Konan hummed as she looked through the books. 'Let's see...how to capture the Kyuubi. GRRR NOT HERE! I FEEL LIKE KILLING SOMEONE! Huh? What's this?'
She looked at the cover of the magazine. 'List of the most strongest Kunochi! I should read this and find out which one is the best for Akatsuki!'
"Let's see now. Number one, Tsunade Senju, hokage of Konoha. Nop. Too innocent minded and devoted to her village. Number two, Haruno Sakura. Apprentice of Tsunade, has super human strength and killed Sasori! YEAH!"
She grinned. Haruno Sakura was perfect! GIRL POWER!
She began to laugh evilly. Deidara who was close-by, widened his eyes and backed off. "HEY! STOP IT! YOU'RE SCARING EVERYONE!" He yelled.
"So what?" She tossed the book in her cart and went off, humming the Death Note theme.
Pein just watched Kisame try to get Itachi to buy a dolphin voodoo doll from a weird looking old hag outside the shopping mart.
"Everyone got everything?" He asked.
"Not yet. This ******* store doesn't have any ******* things that any ***** or ******* can use for ***** sakes!" Hidan growled.
"Sir please refrain from such cursing here!" A person called.
"WELL WHAT THE **** ARE YOU GONNA ******* DO ABOUT IT YOU *******?" Hidan yelled. Kakuzu smacked his over the head.
"SHUT UP OR HE WILL DEMAND MONEY!" He yelled.
"THAT DOESN'T EVEN ******* MAKE SENSE!" Hidan yelled back.
Pein turned to Zetsu who was talking to someone. He squinted. Who was it? A fat guy?
"Oh yes. It is the most wonderful." Zetsu laughed. "Would you like to come along with me? I has lots of friends in my room. I make the most delicious meals..."
The leader sighed. The day was boring. He felt bad for Tobi since he would be too bored at home...not to mentioned scared being alone.
"AHAHAHHA!" Tobi laughed. "WHAT NEXT?"
"And then, I ran outta the place before they would catch me! And believe it no one found out it was me!" Naruto laughed.
"Hardly. Everyone knew he was a prankster so eventually Iruka Sensei tied him to a tree." Sakura snickered.
"AWWW SAKURA CHAAANN!" Naruto whined, wriggly tears running down his face.
"Konoha seems like fun!" Tobi sprang up.
"Akatsuki seems more fun!" Naruto said. "By the way, what do you guys do anyway? Besides living normally and pranking ninja?"
"Oh we capture tailed beasts and seal them inside a giant statue thingy which the leader says is to create a huge weapon to throw the world into chaos and start a war before he brings peace and then proclaim himself ruler of the world. Why?" Tobi asked.
"Oh...no reason! Just curious!" Naruto grinned.
"Yes well, we really had a good time. Thank you Tobi san." Sakura bowed. "But we need to find out teammates now."
"I'll help!" Tobi volunteered. "Tobi is a good boy!"
"ALRIGHT DATTEBYO!" Naruto yelled.
"No, no. Please don't take the trouble." Sakura smiled. "We just need directions to the nearest village."
At this, Tobi rushed to Pein's room and began rummaging through random drawers. "AHA!" He bought out a map of the place.
"Here ya go!"
"Why thank you!" Sakura gave him a kiss on the head. "Tobi is a very good boy!"
"Sakura chan gimme a kiss too!" Naruto whined.
"NO BAKA!" Sakura kicked him. "Let's go shall we? Bye Tobi! Oh and here! I hope this gift is enough for now." She handed him a book.
"What's this?" Tobi asked, sounding interested.
"It's a horror novel." Sakura said proudly while Naruto hid in fear.
" 'The night before 13th Friday.'" Tobi read. "Cool! Tobi read it all! Thank you!"
"See you!" Sakura waved and then the two Konoha ninja were out.
"Hmm...oh well." Tobi plopped down on the sofa and started to read.
(An hour later...)
"W...W...W...What a n-n-n-ice book!" Tobi laughed nervously, keeping the book on the sofa and then walking to his room.
"Silly creatures of the dead and...stuff!"
A creak stopped him dead in his tracks. "H-Hello? Naruto san is that you?" He asked nervously.
"..." A ghostly sound called.
"! DON'T EAT ME!" Tobi screamed running out of the door without looking back.
On the window was a big, fat cat. "Meeeoooowww." It said licking its paws.
When everyone had returned, they found the door wide open.
"Tch! He forgot to close the door! Stupid Tobi!" The leader muttered.
"We would've been earlier if Kakuzu didn't stop arguing about the price of everything un! INCLUDING A SILLY BUBBLE GUM UN!" Deidara said.
"Oh hush!" Kakuzu muttered counting the money left over from the shopping.
"Tobi? Tobi I bought you a teddy bear and cookies as promised!" Konan called.
"You are spoiling that dummy." leader sweat dropped.
"Hey I'm not 100% evil." Konan said. "Besides, Tobi brightens our gloomy atmosphere and makes everyone happy! Why shouldn't I get that kid a present? Tobbiii! Come here! Where are you?"
"I'd rather if he disappears un." Deidara mutters.
"You shouldn't wish for things like that or it might really happen." Dark Zetsu warned.
"Whatever un." Deidara scoffed.
Suddenly Konan came back running. "Where is Tobi! He's not in his room!" She asked.
"EH! Check the bathroom Itachi! Kisame, the pool! Hidan check your room! Kakuzu your money safe! Everyone search!" Leader ordered.
Soon they came back. Tobi was nowhere to be found.
"Oh damn I'm starting to get worried un." Deidara muttered.
"Eoooooeeeeeeewwww!" a ghostly sound came.
"A GHOST!" Deidara yelled jumping on Kisame's head.
"No. A cat." Itachi muttered as the brown cat came into the room.
"Hey...I didn't get this book here. Who bought this book?" Konan picked up the horror novel.
"My guess is," Itachi said. "That after Tobi read this strange book, he heard the sound and then ran away in fear."
"WHAT!" Everyone yelled.
Tobi of Akatsuki...was lost.
