Chapter 15: Tipped and Caught!
"Oh yeah! This plan will not fail. Her death won't be on my hands coz technically I'm not killing her."Tobi thought aloud, going over his plan to dispose of Ino. He really couldn't stand her. He thought her coming into the Akatsuki would weaken them and their superiority.
--
'It's been awhile since I've seen him around here? I wonder What he could be up to?'Pein thought, looking around for Tobi. He hadn't seen him since breakfast which was about like 4 hours ago. He didn't see Ino either.....oh yeah he gave her that mission to bring that prisoner back to Konoha.
Both Itachi and Pein were keeping constant watches in Tobi and his behavior. They didn't want him becoming dangerous. If he did become hostile, he would first come after Ino and he knew it. He despised her for some reason. He hoped that it wouldn't come to anything like that.
--
"Duck, did you here?"Sayuri asked, her and Isumi walking into the department.
"No What are you talking about? That question is too vague."Yune joked, slightly.
"Dog's back. She just came back from a mission Godaime-sama sent her one. She's back in the village, let's go see her."Isumi explained and suggested.
"Sure. let's knock ourselves out."Yune said, sarcastically.
"Duck, stop being such a prick."Sayuri smirked under her mask.
--
"Dog! You're back!"Sayuri cried, appearing in front of Ino and Mayuri. Mayuri stepped back as Sayuri ran to them.
"Hey Mouse. Cat, Duck."Ino smiled under her mask.
Mayuri looked confused, he only saw one of them. Then he blinked when two more ANBU operatives appeared. He then understood how much better Ino had gotten than him. He didn't even sense the other when she did.
"Konnichiwa, Dog-sensei. Squad 5 said they are gonna be with us shortly. They just had to finish some paperwork from their last mission.
About 30 seconds later, 3 more operatives appeared. Wearing the Hawk, Rabbit, and Turtle masks. The Rabbit had a feminine appearance, and the other two were males, Mayuri guessed.
"Hawk, Rabbit, and Turtle reporting in!"All three chorused.
"Good, everyone is here. Hawk, Rabbit, and Turtle, you three got the job of watching anyone who comes near this guy. Mouse, Duck, and Cat, you three got the job of interrogating him for any further information and finding his accomplanices. I have a feeling there are more."Ino assigned, wasting no time going into boss mode.
All 6 operatives chorused a,"Hai ma'am!"
Mayuri felt the two males grab him and he looked at Ino one more time before he vanished with squad 5.
"It's good to see you, sensei."Yune said. Sayuri and Isumi had disappeared to get started on their assignment while he hung back to talk with his idol.
"It's good to see all of you too."Ino smiled,"So What's been going on since I'll been gone?"
"Well Ibiki-sensei has complimented me for the nice job I was doing, keeping everyone in order. Nothing much though."Yune said.
"Nice, Ibiki-sensei rarely compliments anyone."Ino said.
--
Ino was panting as she ran threw the treetops. She looked back a couple of times but didn't see anyone, but she sure did feel them.
After running for 2 more hours, the presence of the ANBU chasing her disappeared. She finally losed them.
It all started after she reported to Godaime-sama for the report and was leaving the village. Someone had tipped off Konoha that she was part of the Akatsuki. Not even wanting to stick around to prove she wasn't, she took off running with her ANBU students chasing after her. She had finally lost them an hour ago but she kept running just to make sure.
She stopped and hid in a bush and was catching her breathe when she heard a familiar voice call out.
"Kamaitachi Wind Scythe Jutsu!"
Ino peered through the bushes just in time to see the familiar Suna chick call out her jutsu and attacked one of the two guys surrounding her.
"Save it girl, we're not affected at all by your wind jutsus!"One of the guys called out. He disappeared in Temari's eye but Ino saw him perfectly charging at her. He appeared before Temari thrusting a katana threw her stomach.
"Ugh."Temari said, before passing out and falling to the ground. He picked her up and slung her over his shoulder.
"Let's go, Tzuaki. We got the girl."He said, turning around to face his comrade. His eyes widened when he saw him fall to the ground and behind him, Ino cleaning off a the katana she had just killed him with.
"Girl! you'll pay for killing my brother!"He yelled, dropping Temari and charging for her. He thought his quickness would surprise her like it did Temari, but it didn't work and Ino wounded up, punching him in his face. Then she grabbed him by his hair, which was pretty long, and slit his throat. No one messes with her friends and she was feeling bloodlusty and agitated.
She slung Temari and hopped back into the treetops. Back to the base for her. No more Konoha.
She was caught and could never go back.
--
Temari woke up with her head throbbing and could have sworn it was all a dream when the guy had stabbed her.
Then she sat up and winced. She looked down under the covers and saw bandages covering her wounds.
"Morning, Temari-chan."
Temari looked up and smiled brightly when she saw,"Ino!"
"Yup. I killed those guys who were after you and I bandaged you up. Don't try and move for a while, you're still healing from the blade."Ino smiled.
"Thanks. Where have ya been? How have ya been?"Temari asked.
"I've been good. How's Kazekage-san and Kankuro-san been?"
"Kankuro's being kankuro and Gaara has been alright, been busy."Temari said.
"Hungry? I could make you something."Ino asked. She feeling like a nurse again.
"No thanks, I'm juts gonna get some more sleep."Temari said, laying back down and closing her eyes. Ino closed the door and thought about her current situation that layed at hand. Her clan members were gonna be killed if Ino didn't do anything.
"Ino, you're back....and What happened?"Deidara asked, eyeing Ino's bandaged cheek, neck, and he couldn't see the rest since she was wearing her robe.
"I got found out. I don't know how. My ANBU students chasing me said someone tipped off Godaime-sama after I left her and office and she ordered for them to bring me back."Ino recalled, sitting down at the table next to him.
"It's good that you're okay though."Deidara said, his voice low and husky. It made shivers go down her spine.
"Arigato."Ino said, blushing bright red.
Deidara hesitated, looking up at Ino. His proximity made her finally lose control over the blush on her face. but he only smiled, reaching up to put his hand on her face cautiously. Something about that small gesture said everything. He didn't need to say anything at all, he just leaned up and kissed her, not letting her go. To his surprise, she actually pulled him closer, not letting go either and even getting more aggressive
Ino then rested her head on his shoulder lovingly. She felt Deidara put his arm around her. She suddenly felt warm and safe, as she did whenever they sat like this. Her eyes slid closed as Ino's mind began to fill with thoughts of the last time they had met, and the kiss he had given her.
It felt awesome!!!
(Bout time they kissed right? ..well u seen all that stuff Ino went thru so i had to let her warm up to him)
It wasn't those small kisses either, it was a long passionate one that broke when Temari bursted in the room.
Both broke apart and blushed. Temari giggled and said,"I should maybe come back later."
"It's okay Temari-chan, Whatcha need?"Ino asked, still blushing.
"I needed some water and maybe something small to eat. but I could come back since I really don't think I wanna see you two suck faces."Temari said.
That made the two blush even harder, Ino harder than Deidara though. Both blondes looked toward the door when Hidan stepped through. Then Temari turned around noticing their stares not on her anymore.
"Who the hell is this now?"Hidan asked, a twinkle in his eye.
"Temari, this is Hidan. Hidan, Temari. Also Temari this is Deidara."Ino introduced everyone.
"Nice ta meet ya."Hidan smirked. Temari blushed and nodded.
"Why don't you two get the know each other better over there where I won't puke,"Ino joked causing Deidara to laugh.
"Shut the fuck up Ino. In fact we will."Hidan said, him and Temari going over to the living room part.
"Well...I'm exhausted. Good night, Deidara-kun."Ino said going into the hallway. Deidara followed her and said.
"Sweet dreams, Ino."Deidara said, lifting her chin and placing his lips on hers. They broke apart and went their separate ways.
