"Kisame, I want you to have Itachi on a leash today, okay? His condition is unstable and I don't want him wandering off or whatever. Got it?" Pein whispered into Kisame's ear and handed him a spiked collar and leash.
The Mist Nin gave a gravely chuckle. "I haven't seen this in ages. What did we call it? Uke Collar?" Pein stared at him blankly before bursting out in laughter.
"What's so funny, un?"
"Go. We'll be out in a minute." Pein waved the blonde away.
"Fine, un." Deidara pouted and moped out of the room to the over watered lawn of the motel.
"Itachi? Come here, please."
"Yes, Kisame, dear?" The Uchiha flitted in. He froze when he saw the collar. "Oh no. Not that thing, nuh-uh." He lunged for the door.
Pein was before him in a flash and had Itachi's chest pressed against the wall and had his hands behind his back. "Okay Kisame, Put it on."
The 'shark man' loyally obeyed and slipped the spiked collar on the Uchiha's neck and fastened the buckle.
"Same-kun! Get this vile thing off of me!" Pein released his grip on Itachi and watched him try to pull the leash out of Kisame's strong hand. "Get it off! Get it off! It's the Uke Collar! I'm not the Uke in this couple! Let go!!"
"Um… Uke collar… Do I WANT to know?" Konan leaned on the doorway.
"I don't think so, now lets go." Pein gestured for Itachi and Kisame to walk out, followed by the two… Other… Lovebirds.
"…Then I said something along the lines of 'Oh shit-fuck no! You did NOT just say that to me!'. So I kicked the fucker's sorry little ass in." Hidan nodded proudly as he finished his story about Jashin knows what he was telling Kakuzu.
"Alrighty people, lets go to day… Whatever of the festival!" Pein pointed at the direction of the festival area of Ame.

"Uhg, Sousui, do we REALLY have to go everyday? Seriously, It's so BORING." Hidan whined and sucked on a piece of candy.
"Yes, we do, do you want me to take away the… pole… in your room again?"
"Haha! This festival is the best! Seriously! I can't think of any place I'd rather be!" Hidan cast a fake grin and jogged away to pester Kakuzu.
"But Sempai! Tobi is a good boy! Tobi promises!" The rainbow masked imbecile whined to Deidara who had half a mind to blow the boy to smithereens.
"Danna, I got an idea, lets go somewhere where Tobi isn't, un! Doesn't that sound good?"
"I guess…" Sasori shrugged and followed Deidara over to a blooming cherry tree.
"Kisame… Please? You know I don't deserve this… THING on my neck!" Itachi used the Puppy-Eyes-no-Jutsu in attempt to woo Kisame in taking the collar off.
"No, Itachi, sorry. Pein had orders and I shall follow them, okay? Sorry, babe."
Itachi groaned and fell onto the Mist Nin's lap. "This festival is boring…"
"Well I think it's nice." Zetsu popped out of the ground next to the infamous Flame and Wave.
"That's because you have no manhood and are a total fruitcake."
"If I am that makes you one too!"
"Pfsht, you wish, Flower Boy."
"Are you implying that I'm GAY?"
"Yup."
"You're the one who hides gay porn under our bed!"
"ME!?" Zetsu sank back into the earth arguing with himself.
"Kisame?"
"Yes Itachi?"
"Have you ever seen a plant fight about gay porn with itself before?"
Sharky chuckled. "No, I can't say I have. What about you?"
Itachi looked up and grinned. "Yes, I have."
"Really, now?"
"Yeah, just now." Itachi giggled before Kisame gave him a good smack in the head.
"So, Pein, what's today's event about?" Konan leaned on the redhead.
"Today is a day for forgiveness."
"What? For what, dear Sousui?" Kakuzu crossed his arms and leaned on the cherry tree.
"For anything you need forgiving of."
A long pause… "Sousui, that sentence did NOT make sense." Kakuzu pinched the bridge of his nose.
"Wait… Let me rephrase that… Uhm… Forgiving anything you've done wrong or feel bad about. That made sense, right?"
"Yeah that's better, un."
"Well, that means today is a peaceful day, so relax and be calm. I'm going to take a nap, so if one of you dies, talk to Konan or Kakuzu."
