Chapter 26: Hostages!
Ino had just finished explaining what happened at Sasuke/Orochimaru's base when they finally reached home.
"Wow, un. You had a eventful time."Deidara said, flatly.
"If youo call it that."Ino said, with a sigh.
"You can never know with that Uchiha. Always acting shady...."Silence added, as Deidara poured some chakra into the boulder that blocked off the base entrance.
"Yea...never has any motives."Yoshitune added, feeling left out from no input.
"Yea...Can we get off the Sasuke topic (un)?"Both blondes asked, at the same time. Silence and Yoshitune anime sweatedropped and snickered silently.
Deidara carried Ino bridal style into the kitchen to checkin with Pein if he was there....fortunately he was.
"So...what happened?"Pein asked, looking up from his coffee and Amegakure paper. Only Pein and Konan were in the kitchen. She was doing the dishes but turned around when she sensed their entrances.
"....I got saved."Ino muttered, she didn't want everyone to know that she had to be saved by Itachi's little brother.
"Is that so?"Konan asked with a smirk, sensing Ino's emotional change when brought up the Sasuke subject.
"Uh Huh."Ino said, with a head nod,"I wanna pick up Jinta today. He'll be so happy seeing me home."
"...True to that, but your foot is still broken. You need to keep off of that, un."Deidara lectured. Konan and Ino snickered when he turned his back and Ino mouthed,"I'm still going."
Pein shook his head with a smile on his face, and Deidara was still turned around so he had no idea what was going on. Then he turned around with a confused look on his face to see Pein shaking his head and Konan with a smile. But Ino's face was completely blank of any emotion.
"???"Deidara was still confused. But he shrugged it off with one sentence,"I'll be back. I'm going to pick up Jinta."
"Okay..."Ino said, with a smile...that quickly transfered into a smirk when he had left.
"I'll leave in a few minutes...So what's been going on since I left?"Ino asked, from the couch with one of her legs propped up.
"Oh..nothing really happened. You know, everyone being whoever they are,"Konan said, with a nod from Pein. Pein then got up and left the room with Konan following him. After that, Ino decided it was time to leave. She numbed her foot again and unsealed the door.

"What's going on, un?"Deidara said to himself aloud after witnessing the empty town. Amegakure didn't have a big population, but it usually had a few people at least in the town's streets.
"I don't fucking know. But I'm gonna find out,"Hidan said, appearing next to Deidara in a second. Kakuzu next to him and so was Itachi and Kisame.
"I thought you two were on a mission, yeah?"Deidara questioned the pair's motives.
"Finished early,"Kisame answered flatly.
"Be on your guard."Itachi said quietly. He was looking around, his Sharingan already activated.
"I don't need you to tell me, dammmit!"Hidan retorted.
"If he didn't, you probably wouldn't know."Kakuzu said, giving a throaty laugh. Hidan opened his mouth to retort something but an explosion gained all of their attention.
"That was not me, un,"Deidara whispered.
Itachi nodded and him and the blue skinned man hopped toward the explosions wake.
A string of kunais flew out of the darkness of an alley at the three left. All three dodged and Kakuzu and Hidan ran down there with Hidan yelling.
"Wait up you stitched bastard!!!"
Deidara smirked before sprinting toward the ninja academy. After all, his adopted son was there, and could possibly most likely be in danger.
He opened the door and his eyes widened in surprise when he saw most of the child of the town's parents.
"What's going on, un?"He asked.
"We don't know. The jonin of this academy won't let us know anything."The brunette lady closes to him.
His attention diverted to the staircase next to the information desk when a 4-squaded jonin group ran down. He pushed past through everyone and immediatelycrossed over to them.
"What the hell is going on here, un?"
"Um...There..."One spoke up. But he quickly backed down when he saw Deidara's glare.
"Spit it out, yeah."He muttered, darkly.
"Some rogue ninjas are up there, holding the children hostage. We can't get them out, no matter how many squads we send up there,"The captain, maybe, said speaking up for the loss of words. The little crowd of parents gasped out and some cried.
"I'll check it out, un,"Deidara said, already sprinting up the stairs.
