Mmk, well, Here's another chapter! My writing lately has been kinda crappy, so I apologize for that...I think I needed a seriousness break before I entered the -major plot- zone. D8

Deidara and I began to walk back to Leader-dude's office, and I blinked at Deidara.

"So.....I hear that you like to blow shit up...." I stated, shifting my eyes around.

Deidara sweat-dropped. "Er, yeah, I do, un..."

"Well that's nice." I stated innocently, then resumed walking silently.

I began to notice little things lately, probably because I had forgotten to rid myself of the Asturi. I noted to ask Kanna how to take it off. How Deidara's steps made slight noise on the cave's floor, and mine were light and made no noise. And how The cave had multiple hidden exits in it's stony walls.

So....I mused, If i just stopped walking would Deidara notice?

I promptly stopped walking, and I ran quietly the other route to Leader-dude's office. Soon I had heard a Deidara's shout.

"WAH! WERE DID AMAYA GO, YEAH?"

I giggled, and entered the doors. I hid silently in the shadows, listening to Leader-dude chuckle quietly.

"Hey, Leader-dude? Scince I'm never going to wear that cloak can I make it into like a necklace or an bracelet or something?" I asked.

"Knowing you, Amaya, you already have." He stated, slowly.

I nodded, then poofed a large Akatsuki-cloth bracelet on. Deidara burst through the doors not a minute later, and looked at Leader-dude, shouting.

"AMAYA WENT OFF SOMEWHERE, I HAVE NO IDE--"

I grinned slyly as I put my hand over Deidara's mouth from behind.

"I'm right here, Baka-chan. You may now leave again." I whispered smugly, then withdrew my hand.

Deidara walked out of the room to let me and Leader to talk together about my brother.

"So, Leader-dude, you know where I can find my brother?" I asked.

Kanna trotted up to me through the slightly open door.

'Hey, Amaya.' She thought nonchalantly.

'Hey...' I thought back.

"Yes, In fact I know your brother's exact location." The leader stated.

Wait. Stop. Pause. FRIGGEN PAUSE! Ok. What was this guy's name, anyways? We all just called him 'Leader'. Like, what the hell? I mused his name.

Koto? Kina? Kyo? Nagi? Naga? Nagi? Nagehiko? I giggled. What if he was a she and Konan liked a girl?

"Wait, Leader. What's your name, anyways? I just mused around with it and, well...something not-so-pretty showed up. Can you like, bleach my mind with the truth or something?" I asked, blinking away the image of Konan with a girl.

"Err... sorry, I can't do that." He said.

I shuddered, and Kanna whimpered, scratching her head.

"Fine. I suppose my name to you can be Pein." He stated, looking at Kanna, probably figuring the image was pretty bad.

I blinked. The mind-bleach slowly washed over, and I was okay again.

"Alright. Where is he, Pein?" I asked, seeing what the new name felt like on my tongue.

It rolled off easily. Guess it was really one of his names. Wonder what Konan calls him....

"Your brother is in The Leaf currently with Orochimaru's pawns Kagura and Tayuya."

"What the hell? Is my brother some sort of pimp? Why's he with two girls?" I asked, scowling.

Pein stared at me.

'Err, Amay-chan, you said that aloud...'

I giggled. Oops...

Deidara, Kanna, and I packed our traveling things into small bags, and I made sure I had my Akatsuki-bracelet on still, then we went to the trees. Deidara and Kanna both jumped on the branches seriously, but I thought we were too serious. I mean, we're just paying brother-dearest a visit. I chuckled darkly. Anywhoo, while Mr. and Mrs. Serious/Serous wolfy-pants were jumping branches, I was swinging and vaulting myself around like some aerobatic circus woman. We ran for a while, until Kanna spoke to me.

'Amaya, I'm hungry.'

I sighed.

"Yo, Deidara! Kanna's hungry." I shouted, willing him to stop.

"Alright, un." He stated, slowing down.

We weren't stupid. We slowly got our heart rates down, because, unlike some people, -coughpeincough- we could die from letting our heart rates down so drastically in a short period of time. When we had finally stopped, We sat down and I popped out some steak for all three of us. Where the steak came from? I have no clue. But I thought it was cool, so I poofed it away and then brought it back fully-cooked on a few plates with rice. The steak was, obviously, already cut up, so we just ate our meals slowly. I savoured the taste of my steak. After eating fish for a while--you would too. I already knew how to poof things, because Deidara had shown me what I used to do. He bluntly put it, 'You like, waved your arm or something and I guess you thought about it, and it came, yeah.'. So I had learned how to do that and I have already used it numerous times.

"Great steak, yeah..." Deidara mumbled.

I grinned. "I know."

I began to think of the woods, and how much I loved them. Especially the greeness of the woods. I took a bite into my steak, but, suddenly, it WASN'T a steak. It was a fresh, green, cabbage. I blinked. Why did it have to be cabbage? Every time my mind wandered, anything that I had freshly poofed and was in my hands, would turn to cabbage. It was honestly crazy. I mean, I wouldn't care if it was like-- an apple or a stalk of celery, but why cabbage?

"Amaya, yeah, we're leaving, un..." Deidara stated, slowly.

"Oh, yeah." I said, getting up.

But as soon as I stood, a large-kind of a Big Cat, jumped at me. Deidara began to curse, and brought his hand to his pouch.

I poofed a nicely sized Katana in my hand, and began to think of a battle strategy, but then I sealed my own fate,

and my sword turned to cabbage.

LOL The pimp part came out of nowhere. Sorry about that. I couldn't re-write it in my brain. My brain was like 'Holy shit. Her brother is an effing PIMP!'

Amaya yells at me for it, but, meh. Deidara just is completely ignorant, and Kanna sweatdropped. How do i know this, you ask? Well, my characters become little people in my brain. 'Nuff said.
