"I have to battle him" Sakura whined pointing a shaky finger at Tobi who at the moment was talking to a flower. Deidara had just informed her that her pass or die challenge was to defeat Tobi.
"Mr. Flower why are you so sad? Did Ms. Bee do something wrong? I love you Mr. Flower."
Sakura stared "Him, are you serious? He's an idiot, he is talking to a flower."
"Yeah, he does that a lot but he is strong, don't under estimate him, trust me." Sakura could have sworn she saw Deidara shudder.
"Deidara look at Mr. Flower Tobi thinks Tobi killed him" Tobi screamed running over to them Mr. Flower in his hand, tears coming from his one visible eye streaming wildly over and down his mask. Tobi shoved it in Deidara's face.
"Uh, no, Tobi you haven't killed it."
"Really?" Deidara nodded "Ok, can Kira and Tobi fight now?" So Tobi delicately put the flower down and kissed it tenderly "I love you" Sakura heard him whisper lovingly, she was gonna puke.
Sakura just nodded her head and got into a fighting stance. Tobi had the Sharingan so there was no point in using genjutsu, she didn't want to over do anything, so taijutsu would be best. Sakura was broken from her train of thought as a huge ball of fire came at her. "Shit"
Sakura sat high in a tree breathing hard, she really had underestimated Tobi, what had she been thinking? The guy was in the damn Akutski! He had nearly killed her, oh, five times already. And with that damn Sharingan of his she had limited attacks, sure she could beat him with one of her specialty jutsu, but that meant killing him and/or hurting herself badly, and she was the only medic around so no one would be able to help either of them. If she wanted to help her brother, and live she'd have to figure something out, and she'd have to figure it out fast. Standing up Sakura disappeared in a puff of smoke, she had a plan. Hopefully it would work.
"Oh Tobi" Sakura called in her sexiest voice possible. Tobi came running.
"Why is Sakura telling Tobi where she is? That isn't right." Tobi started making hand signs but Sakura just stood there smiling like a fool.
"Why is Sakura not fighting Tobi? Sakura will get hurt." Tobi said as he finished his hand seals, he took a deep breath.
"Wait" Sakura said holding up one hand, her other was hidden behind her back. Tobi stopped "Tobi I wouldn't spit out that fire if I were you" she said slyly.
"Why not"
"Because if you do" Sakura withdrew her hand from behind her back and showed what was held firmly in it "Mr. Flower will burn to a crisp" she said showing him the flower.
"WHAT!!!!!!!!" Tobi cried frantically spinning giving Sakura enough time to knock him unconscious.
Deidara and Kisame stared blankly at the unconscious Tobi, "You've got to be fucking kidding me" Kisame said as Deidara covered his face in shame.
"Wow" Was all Sakura could say as she dropped to the soft welcoming grass weak with relief.
"Myamichi, stand" Sakura heard a cold all to familiar voice say. Sakura turned looking up at the emotionless Uchiha.
"How about no" She said flopping lazily on the grass. She wasn't about to be bossed around by anybody, not even a super sexy emo. A shadow fell across Sakura's face and she opened her eyes. She wasn't surprised to see the Sharingan glaring heatedly down at her.
"Myamichi" Itachi said yet no anger was apparent in his voice, "Stand, now"
"Uh Kira, maybe you should, uh stand up" Deidara said shakily looking at the two ninja.
Sakura ignored him "How about this Uchiha. If you ask me very nicely I might stand up" What the hell am I saying!? Do I want Itachi to hate me forever? Wait why do I care, I don't! Ugh I just have to shut up and hope he doesn't kill me.
"Hn" Was all he said, the typical Uchiha answer but after years of hanging out with stoic jackasses Sakura could read beneath the word. Crap he's pissed off. He looks sexy when hes- WOAH! Where the hell did that come from? Okay I'm going mental.
Sakura sighed she probably shouldn't push her luck any farther "Fine whatever" she stood, but at the sight of Itachi's victorious smirk something snapped "But only cause your so darn adorable" Uh-oh.
Kisame was laughing hysterically and Deidara was sneaking as far away from Itachi as possible. Tobi stood in the background petting that damn flower of his and muttering something about being a good boy.
A vein pulsed threatening in Itachi's forehead, his eyes swirled and his words came out seething with dark venom, "Hn" Or not. Itachi turned and walked inside silently shutting the door after him. Damn Uchiha.
Kisame stood wiping tears from his eyes as Deidara reappeared mouth gaping. "Wow sweetness," Kisame said once he caught his breath "You got lucky, I thought Itachi was going to bite your head off."
"Yeah" Deidara said finding his voice, "How did you do that?"
Sakura smiled "I have absolutely no idea" and she went inside as well.
As soon as Sakura's back was out of sight Kisame smirked at Deidara who glared at him annoyed"What?"
"Itachi's got the hots for sweetness" Kisame said his smirked growing.
Deidara gagged "Wha-what!?"
"You saw him, he didn't even snap her arm"
"Your delirious Itachi does not have feelings for Kira"
"Look Blondie I know Itachi so go ahead and believe what you want, I just don't get why you won't accept it" Kisame turned grabbing Tobi and left Deidara alone.
"Because" Deidara said to the emptiness "In the end Itachi would win, he always wins" And Deidara went inside closing the door behind him.
