Chapter 2
What's Under Your Mask?
"—almost choking me to death! I really thought I was going to die!", Tobi said joyously. "Yes! That's what Deidara-senpai did to me! I'm not lying! He went ahead and just jumped at me, and Zetsu-san is a witness! You've gotta believe me! Please please please PLEASE???
I smiled, kinda freaked by all the energy he had. "I-I never said I didn't believe you Tobi-kun."
"TOBI! WILL YOU JUST SHUT UP AND FOCUS ON THE MISSION???!!!", Deidara roared at him. "You are really getting on my nerves, hm! I mean seriously, I can even tell that Kyra is annoyed! Just stop talking for once, hm!"
"Bu-but! Kyra-chan doesn't think I'm annoying! Do you think I'm annoying???!!!", Tobi wondered.
"Um... I think it's best if you calmed down just a little bit Tobi-kun. You're great and everything, but Deidara's right.", I told him. "If you continue to be a burden to the mission, you'll be of no use, and they'll kick you out of the Akatsuki and assign Deidara a new partner. So, just be calm for a while, and we'll see what we can do."
"Aaahhh! Tobi understands! Tobi will listen to Kyra-chan because Kyra-chan is nice. Unlike some people.", Tobi turned to Deidara.
"Turn. You're. Head. Around. Unless. You wanna. Lose it.", Deidara said through his teeth.
"WAAAH!!! KYRA-CHAN! YOU'RE BOYFRIEND IS GOING TO EAT MY HEAD!", Tobi cried. "SAVE ME SAVE ME!"
"Alright, you know what?! Just stop talking! Both of you!", I hissed. "I'm getting freaking annoyed of both of you! You've been at Tobi's throat this whole time Deidara, and Tobi, you're cute, but you're talking way to much, I have a headache!"
They both looked at me, and they were quiet the whole way we walked to the closest village. It was a small village, and it was nice too. We walked around, and found a place to eat.
"With Sasori around, things were different.", I told Tobi.
"Aah. Tobi understands you.", Tobi said.
"What would you like to eat ma'am?", asked the woman with orange hair.
"Oh! Miso Ramen, and a small bowl of rice would be fine. Ah! I just would like to drink water as well.", I smiled.
"Okay. What about you sir?", she turned to Tobi.
"OOOH!!! TOBI WANTS 3 MEDIUM BOWLS OF RICE, PORK RAMEN, EEL SUSHI AND WATER TO DRINK!!!", Tobi answered excitedly. "TOBI IS VEEERRRY HUNGRY!!!"
"Umm... Okay... How about you sir?", she asked Deidara.
"Just 2 bowls of rice, red bean soup, and green tea for my drink, yeah.", Deidara replied.
"Is that all?", she asked.
"Yep.", Deidara said.
"Okay, this is your table number, and we'll bring your food to you.", she smiled.
We walked to our table which was hidden in the corner of the restaurant.
"This place is really fancy. It's also really nice, and the employees are absolutely wonderful.", I complimented. "I wish we could stay here forever."
"Yeah, but we have a mission, and after that mission, we must take you back to Leader-sama for whatever reason, yeah.", Deidara said. "Also, when you do get there, I want you to be extremely careful. Leader-sama is wise, but we must always always always be careful. You piss him off, you could be in danger, hm."
"Leader-sama always seemed so nice to Tobi.", Tobi sighed.
"He has a soft spot for you Tobi, yeah.", Deidara muttered.
"Really? Tobi never noticed.", Tobi said.
"That's because you've got the attention span of a dust bunny, yeah.", Deidara responded.
"That's mean Deidara-senpai!", Tobi cried. "Stop being so mean!"
"You've gotta be joking! Kyra!", Deidara growled.
"Huh? What's going on?", I squeaked. "I was just dozing off."
"Oh, that's okay, but just make him shut up, yeah!", Deidara told me. "I'm losing brain cells just looking at him, hm!"
"Now, no need to say that.", I said. "Tobi's just being Tobi. However, you should stop talking to much, like I said Tobi-kun."
"... Okay...", Tobi whispered.
Then, the waitress came with our food. I was about to eat, and so was Deidara. However, we stopped ourselves, and looked at Tobi.
"... What do you want of Tobi?", he asked, noticing us looking at him.
"What's under your mask?", I grinned.
"Um... Nothing you can prove...", Tobi muttered.
"You're going to eat though, yeah. Surely, you have to take off your mask in order to eat your food, right, hm?", Deidara grinned as well. "So, what's under your mask Tobi?"
"Er... Tobi isn't feeling hungry right now...", Tobi said, pushing away his tray of food.
"No. You said just as we were ordering that you were really really really hungry.", I said. "So, don't try to escape our sight."
"... Tobi... will eat...", Tobi said. "But!"
"BUT?!", Deidara and I said loudly.
"Tobi will take it to go!!!", he finished.
Deidara and I gaped at him.
"You can't be serious.", I hissed. "You've gotta eat it here!"
"Yeah!", Deidara said.
"Weeeell...", Tobi mumbled. "Tobi has finished his food."
Deidara and I looked at each other then at Tobi's food bowls. It was all empty and done for. I stared at it, slightly shaking at the fact that I didn't see Tobi's face.
"How... how'd you do that Tobi?", I questioned.
"Tobi has his ways.", Tobi said happily.
"Well! Well, Tobi, just tell us how you did that! That's—That's inhuman, yeah!", Deidara said.
"Are you an alien???", I asked.
"Which planet???", Deidara asked.
"How old are you???", I asked.
"Are you actually a robot???", Deidara asked.
"Are you a Martian???", I asked.
"NOOOO!!!!!", Tobi shouted, covering his ears. "TOBI IS TOBI!!!!!!!!! TOBI IS TOBI!!!!!!!! TOBI IS TOBI!!!!!!!!"
Deidara and I were quiet. Then, Tobi uncovered his ears. He sighed and ran a hand through his hair.
"Tobi is Tobi.", he confirmed. "Please ask Tobi no more..."
I stared at Tobi sadly. "I'm sorry Tobi-kun. You just seem to be keeping sooo sooo much from us! I'm just curious!!! I'm always curious!"
"Really??!! Just like Tobi!!! Tobi is always so curious!!! Tobi is a curious person!!! Curiously Tobi is what I'm called a lot!", Tobi exclaimed.
"Yeah right, hm! More like Annoyingly Tobi, yeah!", Deidara mentioned.
"Deidara-senpai, you're such a stick in the mud!", Tobi joked.
"Do you wanna die Tobi???", Deidara threatened.
"WAAAH!!! TOBI IS GOING TO BE EATEN!!!"
