Chapter 5: Hunter Society

Deidara sighed as he stepped out of Eien's car. "I could've handled myself you know." He said, "There's no reason to go out of your way and have me stay at your home un."

The raven haired man just walked up to the door, "I don't care. You're staying here until I can figure out just who took your mother." With a sigh, Deidara grabbed his bag and stood in front of the mansion. It was exactly as he had pictured Eien's place to look like. (Picture the Phantomhive Manor. I'm too lazy to be original. XD.)

"Come on Deidara-kun. You can marvel at the mansion later." Stated Eien in a playful tone. Deidara stuck his tongue out at the man before heading inside after him.

The inside was a sight too. The main entrance was decorated in red and gold. The chandelier hung from the ceiling proudly, and the blood red carpet was spotless. The paintings that hung from the walls left the blonde in awe, "No way…are those real un?" he asked as he stopped forward. Eien chuckled, "Yes. Yes they are Deidara-kun. As a vampire, you tend to live long enough to find such delicacies."

As Deidara turned to ask just how he was able to obtain such pieces, a loud blast of rock music sounded from upstairs.

"Ah, Sasori must be home." Stated Eien.

And that was when it hit Deidara.

He was going to be staying with SASORI. His heartbeat sped up as the thought sank in. Was it a good thing or a bad thing?

"Follow me." Said Eien as he headed up the extravagant stairs. Deidara gulped and followed. "Your friends are more than welcome to come over and spend the night if you want." Offered the raven haired man. Deidara nodded, "Thanks…" he said as the music grew louder.

Well I'm not a Zombie, but I feel like one! Today~ Sell me pills, comatose, chemical da~ze. My head is always spinning from this dizzy blurry vision and my stomach has had enough! I feel like a lady that is pregnant with a baby cause I'm always throwing up!

Eien banged on a blood red door that had a black bat and a red scorpion on it. "Sasori! Lower the music!" he called out. After twenty seconds, he frowned and thought a minute as the music didn't lower. A smirk played across his lips and he said in barely a whisper, "Deidara-kun is staying over."

The music stopped abruptly and the door opened slightly. "Deidara?" It was merely a whisper, but the green eyes were clearly visible from the shadows of the room…and they seemed to look into Deidara's soul…like they usually did.

As he just stared, dazed, Sasori opened the door a bit more, "Um…why…is he here dad?" he asked, a bit startled that the blonde was here. Eien sighed, "…Ai has been taken."

Sasori's eyes widened. Deidara's mother had been kidnapped? "By whom?" he asked. Deidara shook his head with a sigh as he regained his composure, "I'm not sure yet un. But tomorrow I'll be sure to head over to the Hunter Society to see if they know anything."

With a nod of understanding, Sasori looked up at his father. "Yes Sasori. He's staying with us until we can be sure it's safe. And no, he's not staying in your room." The younger Akasuna blushed slightly and glared at his father in turn causing Deidara to giggle.

At the sound, Sasori smiled slightly. The blonde was too cute. "Come on Deidara-kun. You can stay over here in the guest room." Eien said as he opened the door across the hall from Sasori's room. The blonde nodded and entered the room.

Looking around, he had to look back at Eien, "Wow, you sure are rich aren't you un?" he said sarcastically. Eien chuckled. The room was huge! The walls were a nice blue color with silver decorations aligning them. The bed was made with blue and silver sheets with a snowy design on it.

Deidara turned back to Eien with an all knowing look, "You were planning to ask my mom and I to move in with you guys weren't you?" Eien chuckled, "No pulling the wool over your eyes is there?" The raven haired man's grey eyes got a serious look to them, "I'll be back. If you want, you can have your friends over Deidara-kun."

He spun on heel and walked back out of the room, "Sasori, you know the rules. They don't change in your case." He said before heading back down the stairs and out the door swiftly.

Glancing across the hall, Deidara saw Sasori staring at him intently. "What un?" he asked, wondering what in the seventh hell the redhead was looking at. Sasori smirked, "You're here, what else do I need to look at but your face?"

Of course, this statement caused Deidara to blush and avert his gaze from the vampire. He pulled out his phone and punched three on the speed dial. Holding the gadget to his ear, he waited for the person on the other line to answer.

"Fuck you Itachi! Yea Dei? What's up?" asked a very sleepy, and apparently irritated, Hidan. Deidara smirked as he reasoned that Itachi had tripped Hidan again when the albino was trying to get to his phone.

"I'm at Eien's place un." he explained. There was the sound of someone falling and Hidan exclaimed, "Akasuna's place? Why the hell are you over there?" He sounded even more irritated than before. Deidara sighed, "My mother was kidnapped un. I contacted Eien and he insisted I stay at his place for the time being."

"Your mom was KIDNAPPED?" there was muttering on Hidan's side of the connection and he said, "We'll be right there," And Hidan hung up.

With a sigh, Deidara tossed his phone onto the bed and threw himself onto said bed next to the phone.

Now everything was catching up to him. His mother had been taken. And he hadn't been there to protect her…He buried his face into the pillow and let out a scream. He had failed his mother. What kind of Hunter let his family get caught by the enemy? He wasn't sure if it was a vampire, but to be able to take his mother…they had to be one strong son of a bitch. His mother was a retired Hunter after all.

But he still felt so…helpless.

"So much for the grandson of the great Atisuto un!" he yelled into the pillow.

A hand was placed on his back and Deidara jumped slightly. Looking to the side, he saw Sasori standing over the bed. "Are you ok Deidara?" he asked in the gentlest voice Deidara had heard from him. Deidara shrugged and blinked when Sasori's hand reached towards him.

Softly, Sasori wiped away the tears that Deidara hadn't even noticed were falling from his eyes. He leaned forward and kissed him just as softly causing Deidara to press into the kiss. The redhead pulled away and smiled softly at the blonde. "It's gonna be all right Dei. You've got the head Vampire of New York and his son on your side. We'll find your mom."

A smile spread across Deidara's face, "Thanks Sasori." He said.

The two were interrupted by knocking on glass. Turning, they saw Hidan standing on the branch of a tree near the window. Deidara rolled his eyes and opened the window, letting in Hidan, Itachi, and Konan. Sasori raised a brow at the three. "You know…we have a front AND back door." He said. Hidan just scowled at him, but Konan smiled nervously, "Sorry, Kakuzu was at the front door and Hidan didn't wanna interact with him."

"Ah, the guys are here?" asked Sasori. Konan nodded and Sasori looked at Deidara. The blonde nodded, "Its ok un. I'll be fine now…thank you Sasori." Sasori smiled at the blonde and pushed some hair out of his face, "No problem Deidara." And with that, Sasori left the hunters to themselves.

Konan was the first to react. She randomly pulled Deidara into a bone-crushing hug of doom. The blonde couldn't breathe for crying out loud! "I CAN'T BELIEVE SOMEONE TOOK YOUR MOM! I'M SO SORRY DEIDEI!" she screamed (in his ear mind you). "Konan…can't…breathe…" Deidara managed to choke out. The blunette pulled away, "Sorry! I just…"

As she let the sentence fade, Hidan asked, "You don't know who the bastard that took her is?" Deidara shook his head, the same emotions from before beginning to bubble up. Hidan put a hand on his shoulder, "We'll find her. And kill the bitch that took her."

Deidara couldn't help but smile at Hidan's statement. The albino always knew how to make him feel better. That's why they were best friends. Hidan smiled back at him. He knew that he could always make Deidara laugh…he was always there to make him feel better…so why was it that he had lost out to that red headed VAMPIRE?

But he wasn't about to let that side of him out.

He could never get mad at Deidara…he loved the blonde way too much. And jealousy wasn't what the poor blonde needed now. He needed someone to make his nerves calm down…

~Meanwhile~

Sasori stepped into his room to see Kisame thrown onto his bed, Pein picking something to put on the stereo, and Kakuzu on the floor. "What are the Hunters doing here?" asked the brunette. Sasori threw himself on a bean bag chair he had in the middle of his room and said, "Deidara's mom has been abducted by someone."

The other three all turned their complete attention to the red head. "Abducted? By who?" asked Kisame. Pein and Kakuzu were even a bit shocked. Who would dare kidnap someone that was not only an ex-hunter, but also the girlfriend of the Head Vampire of New York?

Sasori shook his head, "We don't know yet. But father is furious." Pein nodded, "Who wouldn't be? They took his girlfriend." And Sasori knew the auburn haired teen was thinking of how he would react if someone had taken Konan.

"So what do we do Sasori?" asked Kisame. The red head thought in silence for a moment before saying, "See if you can find anything out. And if you find anyone that's out of place, remind them who's in charge." The three nodded and vanished…

~The next day~

Sasori awoke to soft singing.

There are little birds so high in the sky~

Was that…Deidara?

Questioning all their reasons why~

Heading down the stairs, he saw the blonde in the kitchen, making himself some breakfast.

Solitary singing their song, searching for someone to sing along.

"You have a beautiful voice." He said. Deidara jumped and turned to face Sasori. "Oh, good morning Sasori. I didn't notice you come down un." he stated before turning back to the food he was preparing. "I thought your friends had spent the night?" asked the red head. Deidara shrugged, "They tend to disappear. Like yours un."

Sasori frowned. He didn't like that they had left him alone. "And why did they?" "They went to ask some other Hunters if they had seen anything un." explained Deidara as he placed the food on a plate. He held it out to Sasori and the red head raised a brow. "Just take it un." he said. Sasori smiled and took the plate. "Thanks." He said. Deidara just blushed slightly and turned back to make some more food.

Sasori took a bite of the pancakes that the blonde had made and brightened. This was really good! Deidara had put chocolate chips in them and Sasori swore he tasted a hint of cinnamon. "This is delicious Deidara!" he exclaimed. Deidara smiled adorably, "Glad you like it un." Sasori couldn't help but smile back at him.

Why hadn't he said something to the blonde sooner? It was nice to be able to see Deidara smile, especially if the person he was smiling at was Sasori himself. Reaching a hand out, Sasori touched Deidara's cheek gently. The blonde's smile softened and his eyes slipped shut as he leaned into the touch.

Sasori just stared at Deidara's serene face, taken back by the blonde's innocence. How could a Hunter be so innocent? One that used all that they could to kill vampires? Sasori didn't understand it…but Deidara pulled it off. Leaning forward, he captured the blonde's lips in a gentle kiss. "You're adorable. You know that?" he asked. Deidara blushed and cleared his throat…

~A bit later~

Sasori looked the blonde up and down, analyzing the Hunter outfit that he had on. "You don't have to come Sasori. I've never heard of a vampire that willing walked into the Hunter Society before un."

With a chuckle, Sasori headed down the stairs, "And miss a chance to see it for myself? I don't think so. And besides, it's not like I don't know what I'm walking into." He said. Deidara followed him out the door, "I guess…but you'll need to be very careful un. I mean…you're walking into a place that will be full people trained to kill your kind." Smirking, Sasori turned back to face the blonde, "You said that the others were going to be busy, right? So why not let me keep you company?"

With a sigh of defeat, Deidara nodded, "Fine, fine un. Just…behave?" With a chuckle, he watched the blonde walk for a minute before Deidara broke into a full sprint. Sasori's eyes widened before he swiftly followed. "You're fast." He said when he caught up. Deidara smirked, "The fastest Hunter there is un." "Really? Well, good to know." Sasori replied.

After a few minutes, Deidara slipped down a dark alley and knocked on a black, metal door. Sasori stood next to him, hearing footsteps near the door before a small compartment opened. The eyes Sasori saw were a dirty brown that looked him over. "A blood sucker?" said a raspy voice. Deidara cleared his throat and the eyes shot to him. "Deidara-kun? He's with you?" the same raspy voice asked Deidara, his eyes motioning to Sasori.

"Yes Kochi, he's with me un." replied the blonde. The compartment closed and there were a few loud metallic sounds before the door opened. In the doorway stood a man with dark brown hair that was spiked out in all directions. He wore a suit that was similar to Deidara's, minus the long coat. In between his fingers he held a lit cigarette."All right, I'll let him through, but only because I know you don't trust just any blood sucker. Go on through kiddo." He said before stepping to the side.

As Deidara and Sasori walked into the dark corridor, Kochi said, "Ah, and your father's here Deidara-kun…" Deidara stopped a second before he continued towards the end of the corridor. Sasori followed silently, not wanting Kochi to be within ear shot when he spoke with the blonde.

At the end of the corridor was a circular staircase heading downwards. Deidara swiftly headed down. Sasori glanced back at the Hunter at the door. Kochi was staring at him and moved his hand to wave him down before taking a drag from his cigarette. Sasori turned and followed the blonde.

"Your…father? He asked, his voice a whisper in Deidara's ear. The blonde sighed, "Yeah…I don't really get along with him un. He's the Hunter Jaaku." Sasori looked at Deidara oddly, "YOUR father is the infamous Jaaku?" he asked. Deidara nodded, "Yeah, hard to believe someone as sweet as my mom could fall for someone as horrible as him right?"

Hard to believe someone as kind hearted as Deidara could be produced from such a monster as Jaaku actually, but Sasori wasn't gonna voice his opinion. "Yeah…hard to believe…" "Just…behave. I don't want Jaaku to try to hunt you un." "Wait…Jaaku's last name is Junsuina…and yours is Katsu?"

Deidara shrugged, "My father hates my grandfather, so he threw away his family name. Katsu Atisuto? He's my grandfather un." "Him I know…I've met him before…" "Really un? Then he must've not found you dangerous." Said Deidara as they walked into what looked like a large courtyard. Sasori's eyes widened as he saw the many Hunters that were gathered here. Scanning over them, he already knew there were more than two hundred.

And all eyes were focused on the only vampire in the place.

For a minute, there was an awkward silence. And then Deidara cleared his throat, "He's with me un. No threat here." He said. The eyes hovered a bit before going back to whatever activity the hunter was doing. Deidara started for a large group in the back of the courtyard, Sasori following, his eyes on the alert.

"Deidara my boy!"

The redhead blinked as a man with whitish hair and light blue eyes pulled the blonde into a hug. He had a scar on his left cheek and what looked like a burned in cross over his right eye. Deidara smiled at him, "Hey Gramps un! It's good to see you!" The man ruffled Deidara's blonde hair, causing him to pout and move to fix it. "What brings my favorite grandson here?" he asked with a chuckled.

He looked at Sasori and continued, "And what brings the son of the Head Vampire of New York here?" Sasori bowed slightly at him, "Pleasure to see you again, Atisuto-san." Deidara frowned, "Kosho wa ari un." (There's trouble.) Atisuto's smile fell, "Nani desu ka?" (What is it?) "It's mom. Karera wa kanojo o totta." (They took her.) "Dare?" (Who?)

With a shake of his head, Deidara got this determined look in his eyes. Atisuto glanced at Sasori, "And I assume…we have the help of a certain raven haired vampire in finding my Daughter-in-law?" Sasori nodded, "We'll help in any way we can." Atisuto smiled at the statement…

"A vampire's help? How pathetic."

Sasori's eyes flashed red as his gazed searched for the source of the voice that has stated something so disrespectful. Deidara's frown became more pronounced as he turned to face the new man that had stepped forward. This man had dirty blonde hair and silver eyes. His face had a similar cross on it, though this one was burned into his left cheek. His eyes held an arrogant look in them and his step was just as prideful.

Deidara took a step forward, "Hello Jaaku."

(A/n) And there! Chapter 5! Enjoy!
