Hello everyone.
i'm so sorry about taking so long to update, my excuse had been lablelled: School.
i know this isn't up to my usual standards, but fot the most part, the seriousness is over after this chapter.
please enjoy,
thanks BlueBB
The car ride home was the most uncomfortable and awkward 10 minutes of my life. No one talked; no one even made a sound.
I was surprised by Konan's reaction to the car, she didn't even flinch once while we were on the road, but I had a feeling that she was just keeping it all inside.
Once I parked the car I got out and headed inside, the other two were right behind me. I got inside and headed to the lounge room where I saw Emily, eating a block of chocolate on the couch and watching a movie. I don't know how, but she could eat all the chocolate in the world and never get fat.
She looked up as we came in, "Hey guys, oh you found Konan. Hey guess what I saw on the TV, Deidara is wanted by the police, how cool is that!?" she said happily, not noticing the tension in the room.
"Yeah we saw that this morning on the news." I said, sitting on the couch next to her. Madara and Konan sat down as well on the other couch.
"What's up with you guys?" Emily asked, finally noticing the tension in the room.
When neither of the others said anything I decided it going to be me that had to explain, "Well, some little kid came up to us and practically told them everything. You know, about the manga and anime series and stuff." I said.
Thankfully she was able to see the seriousness of the situation, for once in her life. "Oh, well that really sucks." She said, looking at me with eyes that said she wasn't ready to die. I felt exactly the same way.
"So what is this all about? Suddenly a little girl knows us, even though where not from this world, and starts babbling on about some TV show called Naruto and says we are characters off it. Would someone please explain." Or die at right here and now, Madara's voice seemed to say.
"And I would also like to know everything else you know about us." Konan put in.
"You're explaining!" Emily suddenly said, pointing at me and hugging a cushion as if it would save her from Madara's wrath.
I sighed, "Fine, well you two already know that there is a manga and anime series about Naruto. I guess it follows his life, from when he was 13, but it shows the demon fox inside him and everything. The series skips two years when Sasuke goes to train with Orochimaru, and then it comes back when Naruto returns from his training. It then follows his adventures from then on. You guys are shown because of your intensions to capture all the tailed beasts." Yes, I know that summary sucked heaps, but I had no idea where they were up to in the series, so I couldn't say much more than that.
"So you know of our intensions, and you obviously know all the people in the Akatsuki. The question now is, what else do you know about our organisation." Madara said, obviously contemplating whether or not we knew too much to be kept alive. If that was the case, we knew hardly anything.
"Um, well we know a bit about the people in the Akatsuki, such as some of their childhoods and stuff." I said trailing off.
"Whose childhoods?" Oh shit, I can't stuff this up, I thought desperately.
"Well, it shows how Itachi killed off his clan, when Deidara joined up with the Akatsuki and when Konan and Pein were training with Jiraiya." I said, thinking that those were the safe options. I knew I definitely couldn't say that I knew Madara's past.
"Hm, It seems you don't know that much then," he said, making relief spread through my veins, only to be frozen by his next statement, "unless you're lying, in which case we will defiantly find out." He said, making me squirm inside.
"Now, why would we lie to you," Emily said, looking at Madara with innocent eyes.
"Well in that case, we will continue living here and you two can continue helping us. That is unless you don't want to help anymore, in which case we would have to go somewhere else. If we do that though, we wouldn't be able to leave people who know so much about us behind, would we?" which meant if we didn't help we would die.
"Of course we will continue helping you guys," Emily and I said at the same time.
"Good, well then we had better get the stuff out of the car," Madara said, his voice returning to the good old Tobi that I didn't realise I missed so much.
With that said we all went out to the car to help get in all the shopping. The next hour was spent putting away all the food and Emily making Konan dress up in everything she bought and make her show her. Emily could never resist those sorts of things, especially when it came to clothes. For most of our life she had been telling me what to wear, it got really annoying sometimes!
Amazingly, things went back to normal very quickly, which was very surprising seeing as how much tension there was before. It was nice though, even though there was still that underlying thought.
The rest of the day went without a hitch, that is if you don't count me yelling at Tobi because he ate all the cookies in the cookie jar. I wouldn't have minded if he had of asked, but the fact that I found him hiding behind the couch and scoffing them all down, made me greatly annoyed. Other than that, nothing much else happened.
"I think that tomorrow, we should start searching for the others," Konan said as we sat around the dinning table and ate tea.
"Yay! Hopefully we will find everyone and then we can start searching for the family." Tobi said happily.
"Yeah, I think both of us could take a car each and start searching in all the nearby towns," I said to Emily.
"Good idea, we should take one of you guys each too, so we have more eyes to look." Emily said and everyone agreed.
Tomorrow then, that's when we would start our search. Hopefully it would go really well, and we would find more than just one of the others.
As I was going to bed I prayed that nothing unlucky would happen tomorrow, because unlucky things seemed to be happening to me a lot lately, and at the wrong times too. Maybe tomorrow would be different, but then again, maybe not.
Please review, you should all know by now that it makes me happy!
see you soon! Bye!
