Very short chapter today and I'm sorry!


"We need to use the boat and the jet skis," Deidara said. It was day five of the holiday and Deidara had called a meeting in the Akatsuki's living room, which everyone, even Team 7, somehow ended up attending," I wasted good explosions on those things, Deidara added.

So that was how everyone ended up on the beach with a boat and jet skis.

"So how exactly are we doing this?" Kisame asked.

"You see that island out there in the distance?" Kakashi asked, pointing. Everyone nodded. "Right, we put the jet skis on the boat, then go out to the island and do whatever there."

"Seems like a good idea," Pein said, grabbing a jet ski and loading it on to the boat. "Who's steering?"

"Well all of Team 7 except Kakashi are out, because they can't even drive a car yet, the last time Hidan drove a car it ended up in a bog, I don't trust Kakuzu with driving if Hidan isn't around, Deidara no just no, Tobi once drove a car and it was destroyed before it even got off the drive, Sasori would have to get out Hiroko because he is not steering with chakra strings, and the two of them would take up too much space, Zetsu would argue with himself, Itachi's going blind and I really don't want to be blamed for anything that happened, so either Kisame, Pein or Kakashi has to steer," Konan said.

"Well Kisame would probably capsize us, Kakashi has only one eye he can use, which leaves Pein," Zetsu muttered.

"Great reasoning Zetsu! Everyone get in the boat!" Konan yelled. Everyone quickly scrambled onboard, not wanting to provoke Konan. They set off, slowly at first but quickly increased their pace as Pein learnt how to steer.

"Hey Pein!" Hidan bellowed. "See how fucking fast this boat can go!"

Pein was only too happy to oblige. He increased the pace rapidly but as they approached the island something happened. Pein jammed his foot down on the brake. But the brake had jammed. It wouldn't move. Suddenly realising the situation, everyone including Itachi, screamed.

Then they crashed.

Deidara groggily opened his eyes. Something was looming over him and as his gaze slowly focused and stopped swinging he realised what it was. His visible eye widened and he let out a small yell before punching Sasori in the face. The red haired man recoiled with a howl of pain, clutching his face.

"What was that for?" he bellowed. "You nearly shattered Hiroko's face!"

"Sorry," Deidara mumbled. "It's just that something seemed…wrong from my perspective." He groaned as he sat up and looked around. "Where are we?" he asked.

"The island," Kakuzu said. "We crashed, remember?"

Deidara nodded slowly. "How are we going to get back to the mainland?" he asked.

"At the moment it doesn't look like we can," Kakashi said. "The boat is wreaked, it's fifteen miles at least back to the mainland. The jet skis can have three grown adults on them at anytime, but can only do five miles. The currents too strong for us too swim back there, so we're stuck."

Everyone sighed heavily and then Tobi spoke. "Hey guys?" he said oddly. "Is the boat meant to be producing smoke?"

"Say what now?" Sasori said, following Sakura and Hidan on to the boat.

BOOM!

The boat exploded magnificently, and set off a chain reaction with the jet skis. The result? Everyone was literally blown away.
