I said this and this would be the last... I really need to finish this fanfic... So lets get this story started!

I do not own Naruto except for OCs... And my sincere apologies for posting anything in a long time...

Chapter 31: Narration part ll

"Have any of you guys seen Nashi?" Deidara burst into the sitting room of the Akatsuki lair, frantically searching for the said person.

"That's Nashi for you." Kisame chuckled. Hidan snorted, his forehead creased with thought. Unfortunately for him, Sasori caught his reaction from the hard core Jashinist.

"What's this?" The puppeteer smirked. "The dumb worshiper is having feelings for Nashi?"

Hidan glared at the red head and growled. "Shut up! I wasn't worried about that girl!"

Itachi now perked with interest at the current argument. Well what do you know? Even the most stoic people even show their interest on something...

"That doesn't seem like it to me." Sasori shot his counterattack.

"Who said I had feelings for her!?" Hidan shouted, his face red from it.

"Your face." Sasori deadpanned.

"Ooh~ burn!" Kisame snickered at Hidan's reaction. A tomato could be put to shame...

... I really am starting to think I should've warned you for OOC... well now you know...

Itachi, as usual, didn't leak any emotion... Other than his raised brow at Hidan. Who seemed to have gotten the message:

Are you going to take that?

It only earned a deep growl from the silver haired Jashinist. Deidara was just standing in his spot, curious at how the argument progressed. Temporarily forgetting the reason of his fretting. At that moment Tobi skipped in the room, shortly followed by Zetsu who seemed to argue with himself... again. Both of the latter seemed oblivious to the tension in the air, and broke the growing atmosphere.

"Tobi's a good boy!" Tobi sang as he skipped around the room. Dampening the atmosphere further.

... Seriously, to think that he is an S-Rank criminal...

Itachi leaned back in his favourite armchair, taking out one of his many romance novels... Wait— never mind. Anyways, he kept an ear open for the unfolding scene.

Deidara on the other hand , returned to his search for his dear Nashi... in the kitchen... Seriously? The kitchen cupboards? Understanding these people is completely impossible...

Meanwhile, at the seemingly never ending verbal brawl between Hidan and Sasori didn't seem to look so good. Both people were on the verge of spilling the others' blood.

"FOR THE LAST TIME, I DON'T HARBOUR ANY FEELINGS FOR THAT WOMAN! BASTARD!" Hidan yelled, getting super duper red in the face. An army of tomatoes couldn't even compare... tsk.

"Well if you don't have feelings for her then I'm afraid I'll have to arrange some dates for you too." Sasori smirked.

... Okay... It's a one sided verbal bra— fight... And all that killer intent is just coming from Hidan...

"TOBI'S A GOOD BOY!" Tobi screamed. A little while later he was chased by Deidara.

"Shut up Tobi! What if you scare Nashi! Un!" Somehow Deidara found things to throw at the hyperactive S-Rank criminal. Mostly knives and forks. Spoons wouldn't do, because they wouldn't stick upright. He threw a kunai but unfortunately, Tobi lucked and deflected it somehow.

Even more unfortunate was that Pein came right at that moment. Which he dodged in the nick of time.

Well they are S-Rank for a reason...

"What's going on here?" Pein said. Glaring at every person in turn... other than Konan. She entered along with him.

Nobody moved a muscle...

"Tobi was running from senpai!" Tobi stated defiantly, with the hands on hips and all... proudly? The insanity is giving me a headache... No kidding, there's one building up right now...

Pein turned to Deidara, with a raised pierced brow. Deidara managed to snap out of his fear in order to defend himself. "I-I was looking for Nashi when this idiot came in and started screaming like a maniac!"

The blonde glared at the hyperactive criminal. Pein however ignored this, turning towards Konan. "Did Nashi pick up her mission file?"

Konan nodded. "She did this morning. Although, she should be back by now..."

As soon as it came out, Nashi announced her arrival. "I'm home~!"

"Nashi?!" Deidara shot straight up, hitting his head on a cupboard door. "Ow~"

"Hey Nashi!" Kisame greeted said girl.

"Hn." We all know who that was.

Sasori snickered. "Hey Nashi, do you want to know a secret?"

Nashi perked up at the red head's words. "What kind of secret?"

Hidan began his growling, though if you listened more closely, the words he uttered were a prayer to Jashin. As expected of our one and only Jashinist.

But it seems that Jashin was also a sadist that day and didn't listen to his (only) follower's wishes. Sasori jabbed his thumb towards Hidan, causing Nashi's interest to peek even more.

"Oh ho~ Hidan's secret? Please continue, Sasori-kun."

"I shall get straight to the point then: he likes you."

"..."

Now that the scene that befell the whole liar had different reactions. Hidan obviously was devastated, and true to Sasori's words he did like Nashi. Deidara being an overprotective brother, turned extremely pale and fainted. Kisame was laughing his head off, while Itatchi was looking very amused at the whole situation. Pein was indifferent as usual, Konan was chuckling to herself. Zetsu even stopped arguing with himself. Tobi... well lets say that Tobi was running around screaming to the whole world that Hidan liked Nashi.

Nashi herself was a bit put off.

Sasori who is our favourite sadist, was relishing the reactions his ripe fruit was giving. Not to mention chuckling evilly to himself.

Pein having enough of this cleared his throat. "Is everyone finished? We have an important mission."

Seemingly everyone returned to normal, even Deidara got up from the floor. The change in the atmosphere brought a pout on Sasori's clear face.

"Now that I have your attention, lets start the meeting." Pein produced a manila file from his sleeve, and read its contents. "We will be leaving for a closed off area tonight."

"Just one question." Deidara put up his hand.

"Yes?"

"What is this 'closed off area' anyway?"

"The Dragon Lands of course."

DUN DUN DUN~

I'm going back on first person POV in the next chapter...
