Chapter 38: Drunken Sailor

"Now, Naruto, is it?" Sono asked as he faced a determined looking blonde across from him. All of a sudden Naruto's expression changed to confusion.

"Y-you don't remember me?" He asked warily.

"Oh!" Sono said with comprehension. "I'm sorry, you must think I'm... my brother. My name is Sono Yamada, my brother was... murdered and I took over for him."

"Ok." Naruto said as he scowled nervously again.

Sono waited for him to speak but when Naruto said nothing and just glanced around the office he muttered, "What can I do for you today?"

Naruto took a deep breath and his eyes seemed to glimmer with fierce determination.

"I want Sasuke."

"Uchiha? What do you want him for? You know he's a criminal, possibly deranged, and a murderer. He killed his own-"

"I know all that already! I still want him back. He didn't do anything really bad. That pervert Orochimaru is better off dead and... Itachi... well he... he kinda wanted to die. So! You have to let Sasuke go! I promise i'll look after him! I'm asking nicely but I'll do anything to get him back!" With the look on Naruto's face, Sono believed every word.

"Only if he wants to leave." Sono replied, knowing Sasuke would never willingly go with his blonde mate.

"Dammit." Naruto cursed. He looked thoughtful then. After a little while he exhaled deeply from his nose and started saying slowly,

"What if... what if I went to him instead?"

Sono tilted his head to the side, curious as to what this person could be thinking.

"Inside the prison?"

"Yeah."

"Why?"

"Cuz I love him."

The answer was so fast and so meaningful that Sono was instantly taken aback. He leaned back in his chair and stared at Naruto for a few minutes. After that he just looked down at some papers on his desk and muttered,

"I cannot bring anyone into Kure-Ji-Kira that is not a qualifiable insane criminal. We don't have a lot of money or budget anyway. It just won't work."

Naruto growled. "I promise you I'm not innocent. I've killed people, and I have an alter ego. Isn't that enough?"

"Do you really? Why would you admit to that? Do you want to go to prison that badly? What is this alter ego's name anyway?"

"Nine tails." Naruto answered instantly. He also seemed to shiver and his appearance darkened just bringing up the name.

"I see." Yamada replied. "I will think about it. You would have to give a lot up though. Kure-Ji-Kira means for life. You would never be free again."

"But i'd be with Sasuke." Naruto said firmly.

"Yes."

"I'll do anything. Sasuke needs me, and I need him."

"I'll think about it. You will know if I come to get you, because it will be unpleasant and rough. Possibly painful."

Naruto just nodded.

"You can go now."

Naruto nodded once more as he walked out. He was shaking, but no tears fell down his face(AND HE DIDN'T FUCKING PASS OUT! WTF?)*.


Hidan stood bent over a table, trying to find a certain page of his Jashinist bible. His concentration is very strong but then suddenly he feels something clamp onto the back of his ankle.

"Eep!" he shrieked as he jumped up and over about five feet. He then noticed Mei starting to cry on the ground behind him and he inhaled deeply. He knelt down next to her and shook his head.

"Don't scare me like that kid! Hey, wasn't Kisame looking after you?"

"Sorry, sorry!" Kisame growled as he rushed over to them and picked Mei up swiftly. "She's fast as a damn cat, I can't keep up. She sneaky too! Not real quiet though..."

"NYAAAAH!" She sounded as if to prove his point.

"At least her weird growling is better than crying and shit." Hidan muttered.

Kisame just shrugged then asked, "Where is Kakuzu anyway, how come he's not looking after this little monster?"

"He's doing some kinda deal. Who knows? But yeah, could you look after her for a little while longer? I'm trying to get some fucking christmas chit going before it's too late."

Kisame stood dumbstruck for a minute before he starting laughing his head off, along with Mei who began cooing and giggling as well.

"Christmas!" Kisame exclaimed through gasps, "What about Jashinmas?"

"Shuuut up!" Hidan growled as a blush rose in his cheeks. "Christmas aint about religion! I'm bored and I want to get people presents and stuff, is that so hard to believe dammit?"

"Guess not." Kisame smirked as Mei wiggled her arms and legs ferociously in his arms. Kisame glanced back over to the couches were he was before Mei had crawled away and was surprised to see Suigetsu sitting on them, seemingly waiting for Kisame to return. Mei noticed as well and reached out one hand towards Suigetsu gleefully. Hidan noticed this and made a interested face.

"He talkin' to you again?"

Kisame sighed. "I don't know. It's a day by day thing with him."

"What the hell happened anyway?" Hidan asked.

Kisame just shrugged and, feeling a bit nervous as to where the conversation was going, walked away from Hidan and back towards Suigetsu. When he got there he hesitated for a moment until Suigetsu glanced up at him. He then smiled slyly before handing Mei over to a surprised Suigetsu. She giggled happily and began reaching to grab a hold of his lower lip like she was gonna pull it off.

"She's going for the teeth. She does it to me too." Kisame said as he sat down in the chair opposite Suigetsu.

"O- oh." Suigetsu mumbled shyly. "She's kinda cute I guess- Wah!"

Mei started to wiggle out of his arms and onto the floor. When Suigetsu wouldn't let go of her she turned to him and glared. He faltered for a moment then let her drop to the ground. She instantly perked up and tried crawling back to Hidan.

"Stop her!" Kisame said hastily.

Suigetsu's eyes widened then he jumped up and sat, legs spread, between two couches, preventing Mei from going past. For a second she looked like she was about to cry, but then Kisame placed a small rattle on the ground next to her and she smiled, instantly picking it up and shoving it in her mouth. Soon slobber was running down her face and she was more than distracted.

"A lot to handle, isn't she?" Kisame joked.

Suigetsu looked away as he muttered, "Mom said I was a tough baby too, always getting into trouble."

"Really?" Kisame asked. "I can see that."

Suigetsu didn't say anything for a few moments and they both stared at Mei silently. Then after a while he muttered,

"I was thinking about it, and I decided there's at least one good thing about you being my..."

"Dad?" Kisame added.

"Yeah." Suigetsu replied.

"What's good about it?" The elder shark asked.

Suigetsu smirked. "You can give me Samehada as an inheritance."

Kisame chuckled. "I was gonna give it to you anyway. I don't care if it's in a fatherly way or any other way but I like you. The one good thing about you being my son is that at least you're a son I can be proud of."

Suigetsu didn't reply but Kisame could see his face grow redder.

"You do realize you are proud of a son who is in prison for life at age 16?"

Kisame just laughed.

On the other side of the room Karin smiled. She was happy for them that they were getting along. She also liked how sweetly Suigetsu was treating Mei. So NO, she was not as heartless of a slutty bitch as everyone seemed to think. Karin had feelings too. In that one moment Suigetsu had started raping her she understood something somehow.

She suddenly felt her headache return and she wanted to sit down. She sat on a bench and put her feet up as she did. They were really starting to hurt, the headache wasn't helping anything. Konan saw her and decided to go sit next to her.

"How's it going, girl?" Konan asked, then she laughed. "I said that to Deidara once, he nearly blew my head off."

Karin smiled then grimaced.

"Konan are we friends?" She asked.

Konan was a bit taken aback by this question but she just shrugged and nodded. "Sure."

"I really need to tell someone..." Karin muttered quickly under her breath. "Come here." She started dragging Konan towards the tiny girls shower and bath room.

"I had sex with Suigetsu." She said hastily.

Konan's eyes widened then she laughed. "Is that all? I'm glad! I knew you guys had all that sexual tension going on between you. Then again I kinda thought he liked Kisame even though they were having that weird fight. So how was-"

"That's not it." Karin cut her off. She started zipping down her jumpsuit until finally a small bulge showed as her stomach did. Konan gasped.

"I'm three months." Karin explained as she covered herself back up.

"It's too late for an abortion then!" Konan said nervously.

"I... I know. I've known that. It's ok. I'm ok with it. I just don't know how to tell-"

"Suigetsu." Konan finished for her.

"Yeah. You think he'll flip?"

"Totally." Konan replied.

Karin sighed. "I'm just going to keep waiting then. I don't know how much longer I can-"

She was cut off suddenly by a loud,

"WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO TO MY BABY?!"

Both Karin and Konan heard a very unfavorable tone in Hidan's voice that made then glance at each other nervously and run back into the main room. They entered the same time as Kakuzu and they all saw the problem at the same moment.

Hidan was in the middle of the room, holding Mei as blood once again covered her face.


Ehem. Ok. so, yeah cliffhanger. And I finally answered the question you all kept asking. Karin = preggo. (OMG, lookit the fast update!!!)

* Because in the last chapter of Naruto, Naruto embarrassed himself and every one of his fans by passing out. No, seriously, he hyperventilated. Just as Sasuke-DOUCHEBAG was kicking some ass, he passed out into the snow. Because he was overwhelmed. By emotion. I really hope there was some decent point behind him fainting, cuz if not, it's just really embarrassing.

I think that's all I was gonna say... besides of course: Review.

TTFN XD
