"Never. Again." Kisame gritted his dagger-like teeth. Why did it have to be him? What did he do wrong!? Well, he did kill a few people.. Uh..Never mind.
Kisame glared down at the baby, now happily cooing in his arms. Considering that the Akatsuki never had babies- or children, for that matter- the man had to improvise and make a diaper. But, the shark grinned, it wasn't his shirt the child was now using (after all, his shirts were WAY too big for just this tiny child) - it was the clay user's.
Chuckling a bit, Kisame placed the child - Yin, if he recalled correctly- upon his futon. He let out something between a growl and a sigh as he sat down next to her. Now what? The babies are now in the Akatsuki- but where will they stay? Kisame's eyes narrowed- he'd be damned if one of them were to stay in his room. He refused to have his room reek of barf and diapers.
The brown cloth that was originally around the child was soiled and was in his bathroom waiting to be cleaned. Though it was honestly not good enough to save, torn and rough- similar to sandpaper- it wasn't suitable for a baby to be wearing it. But where could they find clothes for babies without being seen? They're in the bingo book of nearly every country- and their cloaks were a dead give-away.
Kisame nearly slapped himself- henge. They could transform into some local villagers, get the stuff and leave without any commotion. What to babies like to eat? Kisame looked down at the now dozing child, dear kami-sama- what did the leader get them into?
On the other side of the cave, Yang shuffled and awoke from her nap. Big brown eyes met with icy lilac. (I.K. - that is the color of Hidan's eyes right?) Yang gave a toothless smile and gurgled, eyes shining up at the religious Akatsuki member.
Hidan just stared. His religion says to kill people, not to adopt them! What did the brat want him to do, anyways? Uncrossing his arms, Hidan reached over and poked the child's hand that reached for him. What? He's never dealt with a child before!
Yang blinked and stretched her arms out, still reaching for Hidan. Tears bubbled up, her bottom lip trembling. A small whimper escaped from her throat and Hidan began to panic. Whadid he do?!?
"She wants to be picked up." Sasori mumbled as he sat next in his same spot, flipping through the channels on their run-down T.V.
A pulsing vein mark adorned Hidan's head. "Well, then," he started, "why don't YOU pick her up?!"
Glancing from the corner of his eye, Sasori calmly replied, "Well, I'm not the one whom she's looking at, am I?" And with that reply, he stood up and left for his room.
Hidan growled at the now empty door way where the puppet master once stood. Looking back down at the now crying Yang, he picked her up laying her head on his bony shoulder. Before he knew it, the tears stopped soaking his cloak- and all was quiet.
A gentle tug from around his neck made Hidan look down at the child. Yang held his beaded necklace that was of his religion in her chubby pink hand, staring at it. Hidan nearly shouted at the child to let it go, but then thought that if Yang was so interested in his religion, he could teach her about it as she grew up! A grin painted its way across his face- maybe having a child wouldn't be so bad after all... Looking back down, Hidan's eyes turned as big as saucers, Yang was gnawing on his precious symbol, drool beginning to cover it.
"Kyah!" Hidan automatically let go of the child in his rush to get it clean.
But, thankfully, someone else was there to catch the child before she reached her death. Or rather, something.
A giant clay spider caught the falling child upon it's back. The creature scurried over to it's master, standing by his feet.
Yang's eyes were wide open, tears brimming over her eye lids. The sudden fall had scared the girl out of her wits, all of her insides were topsy-turvy. A whimper escaped her closed lips, and a loud scream echoed throughout the hide out.
Hidan winced at the loud wail the child managed to produce. Holy cheese and Rye, the child was loud. Clamping both of his hands firmly upon his ears, Hidan attempted on drowning out the sound of the screaming child, but it was in vain. Growling, Hidan snapped at the child. "SHUT THE FUCK UP!!"
Deidara went a menacing glare towards Hidan. "Well, she wouldn't be screaming if you didn't drop her, un!!!"
And the two continued to argue, Yang smothered against Deidara's chest.
Hearing louder, angrier shouts other than her own, Yang became frightened. Why were they yelling? It was scary. More tears cascaded down her face, the yelling and screaming hurt her ears.
Eyes screwed tight, Yang shook in fear. She wanted it to stop. It hurt her. Stop... stop... STOP!!
A sudden wave of energy pulsed from her bracelet upon her left wrist. Deidara stopped arguing and Hidan was knocked back from the sheer force of the energy. Both just stared at the, now whimpering, child. Did that come from her?
A little late, Kisame came in with Yin with him, "what's going on?"
Deidara shook his head and frowned. "Hidan dropped Yang, un! He almost killed her!" The blonde pointed an accusing finer at the man still upon the floor on the other side of the room. Looking from Deidara to Hidan, Kisame rolled his eyes. "She's alright, right?"
"Yeah, un." Deidara gently hugged the baby to him, softly apologizing to the young one.
"Deidara, Leader-sama want's you in his office." Kazuku stated, walking into the kitchen and grabbing an apple and knife. Slicing a piece out, he plopped it into his mouth.
"What for, un?" Deidara said, looking up from the sleeping Yang.
Kazuku shrugged and walked out of the kitchen, probably heading towards the living room to watch tv. ...What was his favorite show again... Ah, 'Who wants to be a Millionaire' , that's it. (I.K. hahahaha sorry couldn't help myself... XD)
Deidara frowned and stood up with Yang in his arms, sound asleep sucking on her thumb. Swiftly walking down the hallway, he stopped at his partner's door and knocked. But he didn't wait for the 'OK' and just barged in, a grin upon his face. "Sasoriii-dannnna! Couldja watch Yang for me?" Deidara chirped happily, handing over the sleeping baby. And without waiting for a reply, the clay master hopped out of the room.
Sasori glared at the spot where his oh-so-annoying partner once stood, and shook his head, his hand rising to rub his temple. What a headache... Looking down, Yang was still asleep, but her thumb fell out of her mouth. Well, might as well let her sleep... Laying her down on his futon, he covered her with the blanket and when back to his puppets.
Deidara stood up straight as he entered Leader-sama's office. Nothing showed on his face- only blankness (though it could've been mistaken for boredom). "Hai, Leader-sama?"
Peircing eyes stared at the blonde before him. "Deidara, I want you to go into the closet village and buy supplies for the new members. I trust you know what they need, so I'll let you go alone. You may, if you wish, bring someone to accompany you on this trip as an aid. That is all, be back in one hour."
Deidara bowed. "Hai." Doing an about-face, he walked out of the room, and began his mission.
Yin frowned and slowly opened her emerald eyes. Kisame was reading a scroll when he saw movement in the corner of his eye. "'Bout time you woke up..." he grumbled. Yin just stared up at him. A small gurgling sound was made and Yin began to whimper. Kisame groaned... What now? Looking out his sorry excuse for a window, he saw it was almost sunset.
Looking back at the squirming child, he picked her up. "Are you hungry?"
Yin just gave him a look that said 'I don't understand you, stupid.'
Kisame rolled his eyes and picked up the child, beginning his trek to the kitchen. He sat the child on his lap and decided to try and feed her a small piece of apple. Holding the very small piece between two large, blue fingers, he lifted it to the child's mouth and watched as she took it into her mouth.
Yin's face twisted as she tasted the sour juice of the apple. Kisame nearly felt like laughing ... nearly. Her tongue pushed the apple out of her mouth, and it fell on her lap. Ok... too sour. About to stand up and try another fruit, a giant freakin' centipede burst through the entry way, carrying all sorts of things on its back, from cribs, to bibs, to clothes. Then after the centipede turned the corner and started down the hallway, a young woman walked through the door carrying a bag of baby food, a cheerful smile on her face.
Long blonde hair flowed from her head, and she wore a black skirt and a baby blue tank top. Dancing over, she placed the bag upon the kitchen table and drew her hands together, forming a hand sign. And then... POOF!
There stood Deidara.
'I knew he was gay...' Kisame thought, still staring at Deidara.
Just then, the puppet master came strolling in with an awake Yang, who was gurgling and playing with his mass of red-kissed sandy hair. Walking straight over to Kisame, he placed Yang in his lap, next to Yin and left, mumbling something around the lines of, "I'm going to fix their room."
Deidara blinked and then fixed two warm bottles of milk and a bowl each of mashed carrots. Let's just say the akatsuki members ended up with more food on them than what the babies ate... But then again, this is their first time taking care of infants... so I guess it would be considered a good start.
It took about 20 minutes to clean up the mess the happy girls made. Sasori came earlier and took the girls to their new room, settling them down into their own respective cribs.
The room was small, but it was only for two small infants, the walls where a light shade of peach and a shaggy, hunter green carpet coated the floor. Butterfly night lights were placed on every wall of the room, emitting a dim glow. A changing table was in the corner, and a closet was across the room from the cribs. All in all, it was a fitting place for the babies.
Sighing, Deidara, Kisame, Itachi and Hidan left the girls' room after making absolutely sure they were asleep. Kazuku already left as did Sasori claiming it was a waste of time.
Lucky lucky Kisame was two doors down from Yin and Yang's room and Itachi was across the hall from him.
Kisame stretched and flopped upon his futon, the futon itself squeaking from the sudden weight. Rolling over to his side, he sighed. He was already exhausted... and it was only the first day.. Great...
Kisame's eyes threatened to close as he was being carried into unconsciousness. Finally... peace and quiet.
"UWAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!"
Kisame cringed. Spoke too soon.
Foot steps where heard as someone entered Yin and Yang's room, attempting on calming the noisy brats.
Covering his face with his pillow, Kisame mumbled, "Welcome home Akatsuki no Yin, Akatsuki no Yang." With that, he attempted to sleep.
Wheeee! Another chapter! XD I'm going to try and update every two weeks or so until school lets out, then it'll probably be every week... So click the pretty purple button and REVIEWWW!
