Warning: Quite a bit of crack and generally weirdness

I should shut up and let you enjoy yourselves XP

They had been travelling for days now. The Akatsuki members found themselves easily swaying to the motion of the ship and the deck. It was relaxing, and no different than the day to day life goings at the Hideout. Well...maybe slightly different. Itachi, for one, had to rush over to the railings and throw up every few minutes on the first day or so. But gradually, he, along with everyone else, got used to the cruise.

"I told you it was a good idea!" Kisame was saying to Sasori under the deck of the ship.

Sasori stared back with his usual emotionless face. "Yes. It would have been a great idea if it weren't raining like hell outside!" he snapped. The puppet master was in a bad mood, but then again, he was almost always in a bad mood. He hadn't been allowed to take any of his beloved puppets with him on this journey. Not even Hiruko! Imagine Sasori's anger when he found out. And sure enough, rain poured down in thousands of kilolitres outside, smashing into the deck with the sound of splintering wood. Sasori winced at every sound, as they reminded him even more of his puppets.

Kisame half-heartedly shrugged, and was about to open his mouth to reply until they were interrupted by a certain green plant thingy.

"Is there any food left?" Zetsu grumbled, waddling into the room. Without any enemy humans to eat, he had to continually starve for the two weeks. And like Sasori, he wasn't very happy about that.

"Erm..." Kisame looked guiltily towards the fridge, with had mercifully been placed on board. "I think Itachi ate the last of our dango..."

"That wasn't what I was talking about. Don't we have any more fresh corpses?" Zetsu's black side growled.

Now Kisame looked uncomfortable, and under the very likely assumption that, if Zetsu went hungry, the first one he would choose on the menu was the shark. "Well, they stank so bad we didn't bring any," he explained carefully.

"I didn't smell anything," Sasori contradicted, looking back and forth between the two.

"Yeah, that's 'cause you're a puppet Danna un." Unnoticed by any of them, Deidara had snuck in as well, along with Hidan and Kakuzu, all wearing trunks.

"We're going swimming," Kakuzu explained at the raised eyebrows. "Leader didn't want to come because he had 'work' to do, and Konan's afraid of water."

"And the cookie candies forced me to come," Hidan cut in.

"We're not-" Deidara began angrily, but Kakuzu shut him up.

"Ignore that git...let's get going.

"I'm going too!" Kisame yelled, changing from the Akatsuki uniform to trunks within seconds.

Deidara looked questioningly at his Danna.

Sasori shook his head, seeing Deidara's unasked question, meaning automatic no.

"Aww...come on Danna, it's fun swimming un!"

Sasori's eyes momentarily flashed with anger. "I'm a puppet brat, did you forget?"

"Oh yeah un..."

"Let's go already!" Kisame half screamed half yelled. He seemed to be the one most eager to go out of the group.

"Going where?" Came a familiar calm voice below them.

"Oh great, another cookie interruption," Hidan muttered.

Kisame looked like he was going to faint. "I...Itachi-san...we...we're just g...going swi...swimming." All of a sudden, he sounded like Hinata.

Itachi, however, didn't notice. Or maybe he did notice, but just didn't comment on it. "Whatever. Just go." ((A/N: I just had to add Itachi in there ))

Gratefully, Kisame, Deidara, Hidan and Kakuzu made their way outside, in the blinding rain and flashing lightning and booming thunder and who knows what else?

"I suddenly don't feel like swimming any more, un," Deidara said fearfully, staring into the foaming waters seething with rage, even more than Kakuzu when Hidan stole his money and they ran around the base chasing and hiding from each other.

"Aww, come on Dei," Kisame patted him on the shoulder. "Like you said, it'll be fun!"

The force of the 'pat', as Kisame called it, sent Deidara flying headfirst into the water. He didn't resurface for several seconds, which turned to minutes.

"Erm...should someone go check on him?" Kakuzu asked, allowing the slightest trace of worry entering his voice. He didn't care much about that kid, but he knew they would probably have to pay money if he drowned.

"Why go check on that ice-cream?" Hidan asked, rolling his eyes.

But Kisame seemed to have accepted Kakuzu's idea quite cheerfully. "Okay, I'll go!" he said brightly, diving in professionally. He didn't resurface for several minutes either.

"Should we go help him?" Kakuzu asked again, this time to Hidan.

"No way cookie!" Hidan roared. "I'm not risking my life for those two lollipops!"

"You don't die," Kakuzu pointed out.

"Oh yeah..."

Meanwhile, Kisame had felt the cool water contact his skin, and immediately entered heaven. This underwater world was where his mother lived. How he wished he did the same...Suddenly, he remembered his real mission. Rescuing Deidara. His eyes scanned the seabed, before spotting the blonde lying on some rocks, looking very lifeless indeed. Fish had already swam up to him and were probably considering eating him.

"Is it dead?" One fish, by the name of Nemo, asked cautiously.

"Is what dead? I don't see- AHHHHHH SHARK!!" A blue finned fish, Dory, yelled. The fish scattered immediately as Kisame swam by.

"I'm not a shark you fidiots!! ((A/N: Fish + Idiots Fidiots )) Kisame yelled at them. "I'm just here to rescue my fellow Akatsuki member," he added, grabbing Deidara and making his way up.

"What's an...Aca...suli?" asked Nemo.

"None of your business!" Kisame bellowed, resurfacing and waving to Hidan and Kakuzu, with a now unconscious Deidara in his arms.

...The 15 minutes where the two haul the other two onto the deck...

"Oh good, they survived," Kakuzu said, unconsciously running a hand through his hair.

"Pfft," Hidan was tempted to roll his eyes again. "Deidara looks candy dead to me."

Kakuzu rubbed his eyes and peered at Deidara's face closer. "Oh no! He's dead! Now we'll have to pay for his funeral!" he yelled to the sky.

"Oops..."
