Madara sensei?

START!

"Who's she?" asked the leader.

"I'm Tomota Haru." I gulped under his fierce look.

"oh...ok, Welcome to the Akatsuki meeting...now we're just missing the supervising teacher Uchiha Madara-Sensei and Zetsu-san" the leader started the meeting.

"We'll start" Sasori volunteered while Deidara grumbled about not wanting to go first. "we are teaching in place for Yuuhi Kurenai who is on maternity leave. Subject Art. All students are doing well, no acts of delinquency and no rashness or boldness either." reported Sasori.

"Good" the leader nodded, the girl with him jotted down point notes onto paper.

"I guess we go next" Itachi shrugged before starting "gyms good, only one injury; this by my younger brother, other than that everyone listens...and rather seems happy to have a break from the other teacher Gai-sensei."

"Environmental science, we are doing fine...not many people in it but it's manageable and everyone listens." Kisame reported.

"Good" the leader nodded to Kakuzu and Hidan.

With a sigh and a harsh glare to Hidan and Deidara, Kazuku started. "We teach History but as you probably heard from principal Tsunade, Hidan and Deidara got into some trouble along with Uchiha Sasuke and Tomota Haru for disrupting the class and violence." here Hidan chuckled as did Deidara though I stayed quiet, it felt like I was in a trial for something I did...well I did do something but it wasn't that bad...

"I see, and the other students?" asked the leader.

"all quiet other than a couple questions about what happened and such but all in all good." Kakuzu reported.

"Konan?" the leaser asked the girl beside him.

"Everyone worked in study hall, nothing big happened other than a couple paper air planes but still everyone was working." she told him.

"I guess that's it" he shrugged as he stood up.

"What about the Cultural Festival Pein un?" asked Deidara stopping the leader in his tracks.

"Right...you all know what you're going?" asked Pein.

Everyone nodded.

"Good that. Now go sleep." he dismissed everyone. But not before a young looking teacher came from the door to the stairs.

"Sorry I'm late, teacher's meeting at the College." he said rubbing the back of his head.

"Shoot" Pein grumbled as this teacher walked over to Pein casually and whispered something in his ear. Pein scowled again and sighed, turning back to us he cleared his throat to get our attention.

"It seems that Madara-sensei is going to work at the high school as the math teacher...and also the Akatsuki has to also do some sort of contribution to the festival." Pein glared at Madara who shrugged though I thought I had seen him smirk.

There were grumbles from everyone about different things. Surprisingly Itachi also seemed quite annoyed with the new presence of the teacher.

"Who are you?" he came up to me, strangely I felt fear overcome me and clutched at Deidara's shirt. He looked friendly though it seemed that the smile on his face was fake.

"Her name is Tomota Haru and give her some space Sensei" Deidara looked up at Madara with a frown and a dangerous glint in his visible eye.

"Sensei's sorry Deidara-kun" Madara almost hissed, "I'm Sorry Haru-chan I don't see many new people around here that's just all" he said lightly and turned to the rest of the members of the Akatsuki. "What are we going to do for the Festival?"

Mumbled answers were given, none seemed interested in participating in the Festival as they also had to help with their class's projects as well.

"How about Haru decides?" Hidan suggested "Since she is a high schooler why doesn't she go and talk to her friends about this?"

"Good idea!" Madara looked over "Can you do that?" he asked me, I nodded quickly.

"Where is Zetsu-kun?" asked Kisame looking up from the T.V.

"He's in the green house again, something about his plants" sighed Madara who loosened his tie. "Think about it...all of you and we can continue this meeting tomorrow. It looks like Sasori-kun is just about to go into dream land"

Everyone looked at Sasori who in-fact was asleep on the couch. Yawns and mumbled agreements rose and slowly everyone left, Deidara picked up Sasori and carried him to his door. I opening up the door for him Madara stopped me from following Deidara in.

"Haru-chan, I hope you have a good night" he said with again another forced smile.

"Y-you too Sensei" I stuttered as I quickly tried to get away.

"Haru Hurry up un!" Deidara called from inside. I answered an ok and closed the door quickly. The teacher Madara seemed kinda not right.

"Um..Deidara-nii, is there something wrong with Madara-sensei?" I asked though I didn't want to insult his teacher and supervisor so I was hesitant but Deidara looked quite prepared to answer.

"I thought you'd ask. He had a multi-personality disorder like thing...well has. He went into therapy but sometimes the other one comes out. Madara-sensei is the kinder one, he's the one who is like a brother to us. Tobi is the one you saw now, he is the psychotic one who has violent mood changes. He's just really suspicious of you, thats all" Deidara reassured though it still didn't feel right.

"ok..." I looked away from Deidara.

"Hey if it bothers you that much I can talk-" He started but I intervened.

"it's ok, it's not bothering me at all" I shook my head and forced a smile.

"if you're sure..take a shower and clear your head ok?" he ruffled my hair. I nodded and gave him a hug.

"Thanks Dei-nii" I said before going into my room and getting my clothes before entering the bathroom. The shower really took the tension off and allowed me to think about what the Akatsuki could do for the Festival. After a while I just decided to talk to Sasuke since his brother, Itachi, was in the Akatsuki.

After the shower I walked out and saw Deidara reading on the couch. When I read the contents it was on making fireworks and the chemical compounds used in different types of fireworks. I smiled, he always got in trouble in Iwa for getting into my uncle's workshop, my uncle being a pyrotechnic Deidara used to take me into the shop to watch my Uncle make fireworks. Of course him and his artistic creativity and smarts was able to make an awesome firework with amazing colors, that inspired me to look towards the Arts programs at school. He was 13 when he made that firework. We saw it go up on that year's festival, on the festival of Iwa's founding. I still remember the conversation I had with him on that day.

"Look Dei-nii it's your firework!" I clung to him as we watched the firework bloom like a flower in the sky, the colors beautifully melted together creating an illusion of shifting colors and fields of flowers.

"How did you know it was mind un?" asked he as he watched the multiple explosions bloom.

"Cause, it just reminds me of you" I laughed.

"Do you like Fireworks un?" he asked looking at me. His blond bangs shifted and reveled both his turquoise eyes.

"un! I do" I laughed though the noise of the fireworks drowned out my voice so I said it again but louder.

"un I'll make better fireworks for you then" he smiled and tucked my loose hair behind my ear.

"Thanks Dei-nii!"

Of course I was ten and he was thirteen, childish promises and memories of Iwa made me smile. Unknowingly I had walked up to the couch watching Deidara read. He made notes and memos onto another note book.

"you're done?" Deidara asked looking up, his smile never changed. Always goofy and slightly lopsided with a hint of pride and triumph.

"yeah" I nodded.

"ok...So...do you need anything un?" he asked.

"No, just wondering what you were doing. And plus it's almost midnight, you should sleep Deidara-nii" this time I grinned "Can't have our teacher fall asleep during a lesson now can we?" I asked.

"Heh heh. I'm fine un" he smiled.

"this is why you're never going to get taller" I sighed.

"shut-up un." he growled though playfully. He closed him book and stood up with a yawn. "Good night un" he ruffled my hair again and entered his own room closing it. I smiled, he was always Deidara and always will be. With that thought I entered my own room and fell asleep quite quickly.
