Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto if not Itachi and Deidara won't die.
"Senpai! No!" Tobi shouted but it was too late. Deidara jumped down. Actually, it was the clone of Deidara who jumped down and the real Deidara was hiding within the bushes. He knew the masked man was looking for him so he planned to 'play' with him.
"Splash!" Tobi ran to the peak and looked down to the sea. He saw nothing except for the Akatsuki cloak which was floating. Tobi collapsed onto the rocky ground and began to sob, crying out his lover's name. Deidara saw this scene and his heart began to soften. Then, he saw Tobi got up and walked towards the peak. "Senpai, I'm coming with you. Wait for me." Tobi said with a smile which underneath his mask.
"Shit! Tobi is going to kill himself. I got to save him." Deidara thought to himself. Deidara got up and tried to run to save Tobi. However, he accidentally tripped over a rock and fell behind. Then, he realised he was holding onto a branch with his right hand and below him was the coldest sea in the world.
"Ah-hh!" Deidara screamed when he fell. Tobi caught that familiar voice and dashed towards the direction of the scream. Tobi pushed himself against the bushes and the next moment he found himself was that he nearly fell down. So, he had to move back by a step. Then, Tobi looked down and saw Deidara clinging his life on a branch.
"Senpai! Hold on to my hand!" Tobi shouted while he handed his hand to Deidara.
Deidara used all his strength and stretched his left hand as far as he could. When both of their hands were just inches away from each other, the branch snapped and Deidara fell into the sea. "Senpai! Senpai! Sen-p-a-i!" Tobi shouted but there were no sign of Deidara. In just a blink of an eye, Tobi jumped into the sea, not bothering about whether his life would be in danger.
"Ah-hh!" The word echoed as Deidara sliced through the surface of the water. It was icy, colder than anything and coldness was the thing Deidara hated the most. As he plunged deeper into the freezing dark water, he regretted for 'playing' with Tobi. He should have forgiven Tobi on the spot and led a happy life with him. He had been so preoccupied by those regrets that he didn't notice the dark water was crashing towards him.
The water was dark in every direction and there was no way he was going to find his way up. Deidara could feel he was being pulled further down so he tried to swim upwards but it was useless. He felt sleepy after all those struggles. Maybe he should forget everything in this world, including Tobi and sleep forever in peace. No troubles, no pain and no hatred.
"Keep swimming!' Tobi begged in his mind.
"Tobi?! Where? There was nowhere but darkness. There was no place to swim to, un." Deidara though surprised as he and Tobi got some sort of mind to mind connection.
"Don't ever think of giving up your life! Swim!" Tobi ordered.
"But I can't, un!"
"Damn it, Senpai! Just swim! Don't stop!" Tobi demanded fiercely.
Even though the coldness was making his legs numb, Deidara tried his best and forced his legs to kick until he saw a figure. That figure was like a star in the dark sky, shining through the darkness. Deidara began to swim towards the figure and held onto it. A warm hand caught his hand. Deidara immediately recognised this warm touch. It belonged to Tobi! Finally, miracles happened to Deidara and he gasped for air when his head was out of the water.
He felt the same warm touch on him when he was lifted out from the water. "Senpai" was the word he heard and the Sharingan was the last thing he saw before he saw darkness…
"Deidara? Can you hear me?" Zetsu asked.
The contents of Deidara's head swished and rolled sickeningly. That voice. It did not belong to Tobi which jarred Deidara into a more forced awareness.
"How long has he been unconscious?" Another familiar voice asked.
"Well, I don't know. Thirty minutes? You should ask Tobi. He's the one who saved him." Zetsu answered.
Deidara was freezing cold. His body shivered with cold, like there were a thousand of ice covering his body. Deidara tried to open his eyes and it took him a minute. "Zetsu-san?" Deidara asked softly. Then, Deidara realised the other voice belonged to Itachi who was standing beside Zetsu.
"Oh, Deidara! Are you okay? Can you hear me? Do you hurt anywhere?" Zetsu asked worryingly.
"N-o. C-o-l-d." Deidara stuttered, his lips quivering from the freezing cold. Then, Zetsu had Deidara sat up with his blanket on him and Itachi fed him with hot soup. After drinking a few spoons of soup, Deidara felt warmer and his shivering stopped. In just ten minutes, Deidara finished the whole bowl of soup. After the feeding, Zetsu had Deidara lied down on the bed while Itachi put the bowl on the table. Looking around, Deidara had the worried eyes.
"Where's Tobi? Is he alright? I think he will be shivering from the cold too since he saved me from the drown." Deidara asked. Zetsu and Itachi looked at each other, not knowing what to answer the sick blonde.
"Erm, Tobi. He-he is not at the headquarter anymore. You should understand" Itachi answered, afraid of Deidara's reaction.
"What do you mean by that?" Deidara asked, not understanding the meaning of the answer.
"Well, Deidara. I am afraid that Tobi had left Akatsuki." Zetsu answered back.
"What?! It couldn't be! He can't leave me alone! He can't!" Deidara yelled.
