So, here's the next chapter :D. Thank you to all who reviewed. I feel loved :). Oh and sorry if you guys were confused about the age in the first few chapters. They were like at their young age that's why I made them really childish and stuff. Also I made Hinata really depressed because of her father unlike Sasori being all humorous. Oh and I don't know how Sakura meets Grandma Chiyo in the anime yet so I'm just going to make it up.
Warning: I don't really like Sakura that much so she might be insulted a little, but not too much and there is more cussing because everybody is older.
Disclaimer: I don't think you'd really believe I'm Masashi Kishimoto :/ so I don't own Naruto.
Hinata POV
I began packing my thing quickly. Naruto seemed so spirited for this mission, yet those people disturbed me for some reason. I felt some sort of connection to one of them, but I tried my best to ignore it.
"Hm? Hinata are you alright?" Sakura asked including a worried expression down on her face.
"Eh? Oh, it's just that those people. I-I don't know…" I mentally slapped myself for stuttering. "Oh so who is the other lady we are going with?" I added.
Abruptly, footsteps were heard around us and were approaching closer. At the same time, our eyes searched for the door when a hand was latched onto the knob. "Are you guys talking about me?" an elder lady nagged.
"That's her." The pink-haired kunoichi informed.
"I'm Chiyo. You are…?" The woman came toward me with a seemingly forced grin.
"Hyuga Hinata" I answered. She stared at me wide-eyed for a while until it became irritating. "What do I have something on my face?"
"It's nothing."
"OY! LET'S GO!" Naruto intruded.
"Eh, where do we go? We don't even know where they are." I stated.
"That is why you have me. I'll lead you to them." Chiyo chirped.
Sasori POV
"I wonder what foolish body possesses the Kyuubi, un." Deidara wondered.
"We have a picture of him you know." I told him. I gave him the scroll of what are mission is. His eyes enlarged while his jaw descended. "What?"
A discouraging grimace invaded his face. "That boy that was with that attractive girl was the Kyuubi, un." He held up the identical illustration.
"Him? There's no way. He's so pathetic, and he couldn't even protect that girl."
"Hehe, you do care about her, un?"
"Why are you so obsessed about me and her?"
"Ha, so it's true! I have to say, you do have good taste, un." The blonde snickered and casted a miniature bird to his side and directed a hand sign, making it turn into an abundant bird. "Come on, we should start to actually do this mission."
Hinata POV
We proceeded into the forest route that we used when we usually gone on a mission. Chiyo-sama and I were in the front while Sakura and Naruto were a few feet behind, yet the distance didn't prevent the audibility of their aggravating quarrel.
"UGH, IM HUNGRY!" Naruto grumbled.
"NARUTO! THIS MISSION IS SERIOUS! YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSE TO BE THINKING ABOUT FOOD!" Sakura shrilled.
"But I want ramen. Can we stop at my favorite shop? Hm, what flavor should I get? I wonder if I have enough money. Jiraya probably stole all of it again."
"NARUTO! QUIT IT! YOU'RE SO ANNOYING!"
"Hey, Hinata, are they always like that?" Chiyo-sama questioned, revealing her irritation.
"It's less than usual." I responded grievously. A thought came to my mind. "How can you track them down?"
"One of them is my grandson. I put this tracking puppet on him ever since he was young, in case he ever got away from me."
A tracking puppet? It must be the red-head she is talking about. I glanced at her seeing no resemblances.
"They are pretty close now." She warned. We all stopped to an over-sized canyon that was surrounded us. (A/N: This is the place where Grandma Chiyo and Sakura battled Sasori)
"What do these Akatsuki people even want from us?" Sakura mumbled.
"The Kyuubi, un." The blonde man retorted. Both he and the red-head leaped to the ground several feet away from us. "We don't want to fight you girls. All we need is that kid, un." His finger positioned itself toward Naruto.
Sakura gave them a pissed glare. "WE GIRLS CAN KILL YOU!" The kunoichi's head whipped her head towards me. "Come on Hinata! Let's show these idiots whose best!"
With that, Sakura and I sprinted toward them. Sakura went for the blonde while I targeted the mysterious red-head.
"Ugh! Who are you? I'd prefer to battle the other girl who seems more elegant unlike you, un" The displeased man argued.
Later, I detected Naruto was cheering Sakura on, making me feel left out and sick to my stomach. Then I could hear his footsteps come towards Sakura to aid her. A tragic feeling sunk into my heart. He must really care about Sakura, and I'm practically nothing compared to her.
Sasori POV
We hid behind a tree when we saw the group of ninjas together surrounding our target. The girl with dark-like hair was with them. They spoke diligently with much confidence.
"Let's go." My partner demanded courageously.
I noticed another girl with a pink-like hair. She muttered out a question while Deidara answered it trying to be cool. "WE GIRLS CAN KILL YOU!" She bawled. "Come on Hinata! Let's show these idiots whose best!"
Hinata? The girl completed her order and confidently rushed toward me. It can't be. I seized her wrists and held her in a tight grip. "Let me go!" She whimpered.
My eyes flicker. "Hinata? Who are you?"
She refused to answer my question and avoided making any eye-contact. She again proceeded to get away from my grip, but failed again. She stood there as if she was immobilized, then caught a glimpse of the foolish boy who endured the powerful Kyuubi encouraging the not-so-attractive ninja. She flashed a dreadful wince. "Ugh! Could someone give me a hand?" She subsequently coughed out.
Then a puppet knocked me away from her. What the hell? I glanced up. The puppets were the ones I made when I was younger. The only person who had those puppets was…
Hinata plunged toward me with chakra while I was distracted in my thoughts. She hit my both my ankles and one of my arms. Quickly after, my muscles became numb and I received the inability to neither control nor maneuver them. The puppets came toward me again. I expected an impact, although instead a hand gripped the collar of my cloak and launched me into the air, landing me on an albino bird.
Deidara POV
"Guess we underestimated you guys." I admitted pathetically.
I lazily slung Sasori's paralyzed body on my winged creature, treating him as if he was worthless dirt. I spat out a revolting tongue at the repulsive discolor-haired teen (AKA Sakura). The rest of them stared uneasily probably wanting to rid of us permanently.
The unpleasant female stepped forward with a challenging fist. "YEAH, YOU'D BETTER RUN AWAY! YOU BIG-ASS BABY!"
"Humph, you asked for it, bitch." I summoned a feathered creation summoning it to surprise her later on.
I managed to capture another glance at the girl whom I guessed possessed the name Hinata. She noticed my haunting glare and her uneasy brow rose. I smirked and gave her a flirty wink; however, Sasori slapped me immediately while Hinata returned an amused giggle.
"We are so lame, un." I mocked myself.
"That older woman, she was my Grandmother." Sasori changed the subject.
"Hm, what are you planning, un?"
"They should have learned to hand over the Kyuubi in the beginning. Oh well, I guess I'm just going to have to kill one of them."
Hinata POV
After cutting of the supply of Chakra to several of enemy, I allowed Chiyo-sama to order her puppets to attack him once again. Unluckily, his partner assisted him, and slammed him carelessly onto another one of constructions.
"Guess we underestimated you guys." He declared with unhidden shame.
Sakura charged a few feet towards him and shrieked out random remarks. The man emitted a pissed-off sigh and did something with his hand and awkwardly whispered to it.
During his escape, I could feel his dense glare and my eyebrow curiously surfaced. He gave me a somewhat loving smile and winked. Too bad for him, he won a rough smack from the red-head, causing me to stop my short chuckle with my hand.
"Huh? HINATA WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING! FLIRTING WITH THE ENEMY! ESPECIALLY BECAUSE HE THOUGHT I WAS UGLY! CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT? ME UGLY?" Sakura wailed.
Once they escaped from my view I finally brought my attention back to Sakura. "Hm? What?"
"Ugh, Hinata, we don't have time for thi- AAH!" A surprising explosion fumed around her.
"Sakura-chan! Are you okay?" Naruto yelped. He held her in his arms with troubled eyes.
"Ugh…that guy. Tricked me…" She mumbled more utters until she became unconscious.
I sighed. "That's what she gets for challenging him." I muttered to myself. I treaded toward Chiyo-sama to make sure she wasn't seriously injured. At that moment, a Kunai knife was unexpectedly flung toward me. I gasped as it landed just a few inches from my feet. A scratch mark exposed itself on my face just a few moments later.
"W-What was that?" Chiyo stammered unmasking her confusion.
I released the weapons from the earthy grasp and ripped off the note attached to its handle. You'd better watch your back, Hinata. One of you will die. I'd prefer not to hurt you, and all we need is the Kyuubi. ~Sasori~
I stared at it puzzled. "Sasori? So…familiar."
"My son." Chiyo-sama declared.
"Hinata-chan!" Naruto blurted out.
"Hm?" I asked hoping he would notice the wound represented on my face.
"We should get back to the village. Sakura-chan isn't feeling well."
"Oh..."
"Hm? Why do you have a weapon in your hand? They've gone you know?"
"Don't worry about it" I was too depressed to show him the note. Afterwards, we proceeded back into the swarms of vegetation. We found a convenient place to rest, and since it was already late and we were all tired, we stopped and decided to stay for the night.
"Maybe you should try to heal Sakura." Naruto suggested. I nodded unhappily and advanced his request.
When everybody was peacefully snoozing, I watched the stars and moon demolish the sun. Out of nowhere, a rustle interrupted my relaxation. I checked out the area where the noise came from and found a breath-taking waterfall. I grinned and touched the calm water.
"So you're here." I chuckled. The red-head smirked amusingly sending chills through my body.
"I was waiting for you to come."
Yes, that is where I'm going to stop ^.^ I bet you guys are like "Noo!" Mwahaha I am so evil. Well, not really but whatever. I actually enjoyed writing this :P. I wasn't thinking this was going to happen, when I write my stories I tend to listen to songs that make me do random things. Hopefully the next chapter will come soon. I kind of took my time with this one. Wait, I was going to say something -.-. Dang it, I can't remember :(.
