JK: Umm, yeah. Well, about my plushie/ring...I never got it...TT.TT I got another order, but it's a gift for a friend. I'm sad. I'll have to place the order again, I'm afraid. Oh, well. I'm taking my anger out on Kisame!! BTW, art update! cip drew the photograph from ch. 15 and Kisame spanking Itachi from ch. 5, if you wanna see.

To t.A.T.u Crazi - Deidara will not find out about the picture. And about him not burning it, there's a reason.

To Anro - Jah, there's going to be some more spanking! This fic is nowhere NEAR completion! Yes, Kisame's a sweet sharky, isn't he? Unfortunately, he's Itachi's big blue teddy bear/father figure.

To Hekun - Ugh, I know. Been there, done that.

To A - ...(blush) Oh, thanks!

To Artistic Eloquence - C'mon, c'mon, c'mon!! Oh, and I was afraid of that. I don't plan to end this fic anytime soon.

To Renjisbabsister - LOL indeed...(GAWD! I hate the word 'indeed'.)

To ExplosiveNoteNinja - I actually stole the 'SHE GONE' from Teen Girl Squad on homestarrunner(dot)com. O.o

To The Kyuubi maiden - You're right!

To my lovely darling cip-chan - I loved your pics!!

To NamimiNakashima - I agree!

To Flamecolonel - God, I hope you feel better.

To The-New-Akatsuki-Leader - They will, they will.

To AkatsukisNumber1Fangirl - It's not over, as you can see.

To Deikuru - Muhahahaha...

"So?" Deidara prodded.

"So?" Itachi asked back.

"How was it, un?"

"What?"

"The mission!"

"Well, on the way there, Kisame threatened to spank me for the fifth time that day, only now he was threatening with a switch, Sasuke attacked me, I had to use a genjutsu that made me look like Kisame's son, Naruto became my friend, we t.p.'d Mr. Spring-Of-Youth's house, Sasuke discovered me, we fought again, Kisame spanked BOTH of us, then we came home." Itachi explained.

"So, you had fun, un?"

"Totally."

-Living Room-

"Attention, Akatsuki members!" Leader boomed. "We're doing something special tonight. As requested by Konan-"

"Whipped!!" Deidara coughed. Itachi, curled up in Kisame's lap, snickered until Kisame started to roll up his newspaper. Taking the hint, he stopped.

"As I was saying, we are all going out."

"I'm not gay!" Deidara called.

"Not THAT kind of going out!" Leader yelled, then muttered: "I'm surrounded by children."

"Leader?" Konan asked, lightly taking his hand.

"Oh, yes. Well, then, we'll be off at seven. Don't be late." With that, he and Konan vanished. Slipping free from Kisame's loose embrace, Itachi walked to Deidara and knelt down.

"He realizes, of course, when he says 'don't', to us it means, 'do'." he whispered.

"So?" Deidara whispered back.

"Let's be annoying."

"Are you on a streak?"

"Nah, I just like hearing 'don't' and then go do it."

"Don't jump off that bridge?"

"No, Deidara. Not like that."

-7:01 p.m.-

The whole Akatsuki was standing around waiting for Itachi and Deidara to come in. They were all in standard jeans/T-shirts get-ups.

"Itachi?" Kisame called up the stairs.

"I'm coming!" Itachi came down the steps.

"No." Kisame took one look.

"Why?" Itachi asked. He was wearing his black 'The Voices...' T-shirt, baggy goth pants with chains, fishnet gloves, and make-up.

"Do you not SEE what you're wearing? No, no, no."

"Itachi, un!! I need you help me!"

"With what?" Itachi dashed up the stairs.

"Itachi! While you're up there, change!"

"Okay, we're back." Itachi came down the stairs (same clothes) and Deidara hurried behind him in black jeans, fingerless gloves, and a tight-fitting black T-shirt that read, 'If you're reading this, then step one of my evil plan is complete'.

"NO." Sasori and Kisame said instantly.

"What?"

"Come on, un!!"

-The Bar (Yes, It's A Bar)-

"Look, un!" Deidara shook Itachi's shoulder. "Open mike night for karaoke!"

"Yeah, so?" the black-haired shinobi asked.

"You can do that, un."

"No."

"Come on! You have an amazing voice! Remember, you sang What Is Love for me?"

"NO, Deidara."

"Please?"

"No."

"Puh-LEEEZE?"

"Okay, fine!"

"Yay!"

"I'm going to regret this, aren't I?"

"Maybe!"

-Later-

"Let's give a hand to him! You know he did fine!" The obnoxious announcer called. The audience applauded, though it was rather forced. "Okay, thank you! Next we have...Oh, my. This is terrible handwriting. It says...Uchiha Itachi! Come on up here!" Kisame choked on his soda.

"Itachi?!" he coughed. The whole Akatsuki (minus Deidara) had matching WTF?! looks as Itachi nervously stepped up to the mic.

"What do you want?" the DJ asked.

"I didn't plan this far." Itachi whispered to him.

"Here, try this. It's They Might Be Giants. You know them?"

"Only two songs."

"How about this one?" he pointed to a track name. A devious idea bloomed in Itachi's mind.

"Sure." he grinned.

"Cue." the DJ hit play.

"Yes, no, maybe
I don't know
Can you repeat the question?"
Itachi sang.

"You're not th boss of me now!
You're not the boss of me now!
You're not the boss of me now, and you're not so big!"

"Bwahahahaha, un!" Deidara fell off his chair, and Kisame twitched.

"You're not the boss of me now!
You're not the boss of me now!
You're not the boss of me now, and you're not so big!"

"Kisame? Why are you twitching?"

"I'll kill him." Kisame twitched again. "I'll kill the little brat."

JK: Wow. I had fun. Anyway, the song was Boss of Me by They Might Be Giants. I heard it a few weeks ago and saw Itachi yelling this at Kisame. That's pretty embarrassing, if you ask me. I'm going to update later today. Review so I have a 'reply to reviewer' section!! See yah later!
