Chapter 5: Puppet Boy is Alive?!

I laughed breathlessly from within the room I was in, searching for a hiding place. Who's room it was? I had no idea and I didn't care.

Right now I was having the time of my life keeping out of Hidan's way as he searched for me and failed. Miserably. No pesky vermin could possibly find someone such as myself when I didn't want to be found.

Deidara had been freaking out and yelling about my nudity while the lollipop and I ate at the table. Then all of a sudden it felt like an earthquake hit. Accompanied by one really loud, obnoxious, angry voice screaming out one name in particular.

My name.

Guessing Hidan had finally checked out his room I hightailed it and phased straight through the kitchen wall. I found myself in a room just as simple as Hidan's, the only difference being bits and pieces of wood scattered on every surface of furniture. Including the king sized bed.

Seeing an almost finished puppet laying across a workbench I did a few paw... er... hand signs and possessed it. Then I sat up, creaking ominously, so that I had a great view of the room and, more importantly, the door that led into the hallway.

And that's how I found myself staring unblinkingly at Sasori as he sauntered into the room, red hair framing his attractive face. The guy who had supposedly been killed by that annoying little vermin, Sakura.

The one now glaring mere inches from my face. Or the puppet's face, seeing as he couldn't possibly know I had possessed his strange creation. With an annoyed huff he shook his head and smoothly laid me back down on the workbench.

Nodding once in satisfaction he walked off silently, the click of a door signaling his departure. Once he was gone I immediately sat back up and began listening intently for any signs of Hidan. Trying my best to block out the sound of running water coming from the room Sasori went into.

The cussing had ceased completely and I couldn't smell his weirdly attractive scent. So the idiot wasn't even close to finding me.

Stupid vermin.

After about fifteen minutes of waiting I was struggling against the clutches of sleep. Thirty minutes later I was completely passed out, therefore missing the entrance of Hidan.

"Sasori!"

His yell made me jump wide awake before I caught myself and remained completely still. Puppet eyes staring directly ahead of me as Hidan glared at me suspiciously before shrugging.

The door leading to the bathroom opened and out came Sasori. Clad only in a red towel might I add. His usual emotionless face glared daggers at Hidan.

"What are you doing in my room." He said in a monotone voice, yet you could tell he was pissed off.

Something seemed... off about him. It was then that I got over his attractive body and noticed that he actually had a body. A normal body. No built in compartments, no seams or grooves, just regular flesh and muscles. He was completely human, through and through.

If I wasn't currently having so much fun pranking Sasori and hiding from Hidan my eye would be twitching up a storm. Not only did I not know who the leader of the Akatsuki was, I also didn't realize Sasori was very much alive! And a disgusting human at that!

My intel gathering skills were being sorely outmatched when it came to this particular evil, let's conquer the world, group.

"I'm looking for a small pink and white cat with two fucking tails." Hidan smiled evilly, looking down at the much shorter male. "Do you fucking want a new puppet?"

Sasori didn't answer his question and instead casually pushed passed him to stand directly in front of me, his eyes narrowed. Then he turned around and with one hand, the other was holding his towel around his waist, stabbed Hidan in the chest with a senbon.

Hidan grunted, but other than that he wasn't fazed. It almost looked like he had enjoyed it actually. Nasty vermin.

"What did I tell you about touching my art, Hidan?" Sasori snapped quietly, no doubt blaming Hidan for his puppet sitting up again.

Haha, he'd never guess it was me!

"What the fuck are you talking about you short little bastard?" He frowned and roughly pulled the weapon from his chest, tossing it to the floor.

Sasori pointed at me and Hidan blinked.

"I didn't touch that fucking creepy ass thing." His face contorted in disgust. "Jashin wouldn't even touch that." He muttered as Sasori turned back to me and began prodding my puppet self.

I held in my giggles as his face scrunched up in concentration. Then I burst out laughing when his hand went into the compartment in my stomach, tickling the hell out of me.

Sasori and Hidan jumped back in shock as I sucked in lung fulls of air, slamming the compartment shut with a loud bang. All the while cursing my ticklish human body in my head. If I had possessed the stupid puppet in my normal cat form I would have been fine.

When I had finally regained my composer both of the idiots were just staring at me, mouths hanging open. I was almost certain a fly flew into Hidan's mouth and back out again.

"What?" I huffed finally. "Cat got your impudent tongues?"

"Nadeshiko!" Hidan's face broke into a harsh glare and spittle flew through the air as he yelled. "You disgusting little bitch! What the fuck did you do to my room!"

Sasori glared at Hidan and rubbed his ears in annoyance.

"I have no idea what your talking about pathetic human." I studied the puppet's nails and sniffed. "Demons such as myself do not flood people's rooms."

"Oh, is that fucking so?" He ground out between clenched teeth, taking a threatening step forward. "Then how the fuck did you know it was fucking flooded?"

"I'm a bakeneko." I replied simply, doing a few hand signs. Puppets made my butt look big. Not that I don't look sexy in whatever I possess.

Seeing my hands signs Hidan and Sasori jumped into defensive stances. Did I mention Sasori was still in a towel?

With a poof I stood in my human form, the puppet laying untouched on the workbench. Placing my hands on my hips I glared at Hidan in annoyance, only to see his head turned away from me.

"Why the fuck are you a naked fucking human!" He practically screamed, his face so red a crab would be jealous.

Sasori, on the other hand, decided he had had enough of our antics and attached chakra strings to us and marched our butts out of his room. Slamming the door shut with an annoyed, "Stay out."

We both looked at each other, blinking. Then we both burst out laughing, tears streaming down our faces.

"Come on fluffy shit." Wiping tears from his face Hidan took off his cloak and dumped it onto my head with a grumble.

"Fine." I made a face at him, secretly happy as I shrugged on the huge thing. It was warm and smelled just like him. "Loud mouth."

He rolled his eyes and opened the door to his room, which was somehow spotless. "I can't believe you were running around nude!" His face was a suspicious pink.

I shook my head, humans.

With that I ran and jumped onto his clean bed, curling up in his blankets. How he managed to tidy up his room so fast, I didn't know.. My turquoise eyes gleamed from under the covers as I glared at him.

"If you wished for me to be clothed you should have given me some." I stated matter of factually, ignoring his protests as I closed my eyes.

"Stupid furball." Was the last thing I heard before sleep claimed me.
