Stupid Geniuses Ch 7

Happy (belated) fourth of July you guys! :3 I love this holiday personally seeing as I am an AMERICAN! *woo* Heh…Yeah… *pokes fat* I fit the stereotype pretty well if you ever wondered what I look like. I'd draw a cartoon of myself but it'd be a fat stick figure with glasses and dirty-blond hair. Drawn in crayon. Badly. Anyway… ON TO ANSWERING THE REVIEWS I LOVE SO DEARLY!

demon of my heart and mind: Aww, I'm sorry. I fail epically at skating too! XD You're so lucky you get to babysit cute kids every weekend! *jealous* I don't really babysit much because my neighbors are all tweens… :/

Piper: Kumori's really mad about that XXDD I'm so happy you still like it~

Maiumaora: O_O"" Are you okay?! That's gotta kill! Ha~ Akatsuki dominos. That'd make a cute fanart. *nudge-nudge-wink-wink*

Likes to Smile: *grins evilly* Oh yes. I kinda live off of fluff and jealous characters!

Bad-LuckCharm: O3O You really like it~? YAYZ! ;3 Thanks so much~

Thanks to demon of my heart and mind and DanceScreamSing and .x for the alerts and Bad-LuckCharm for the favorite!

I blink a few times before pulling my legs around so they're on either side of my body, my hands in between them. My glasses are falling down my nose and I glare a little up at the mugger-ninja who were supposed to be keeping me upright.

"You did that on purpose," I say accusingly as Hidan skids to a stop in front of us, spraying shavings of ice all over me.

"Did that on purpose," Hidan says bending over so his hands are on his knees. He's grinning down at me as I wipe the shavings off my face. His eyes are closed. An evilly evil thought hits me and I quickly make a snowball out of the remaining ice.

"Hidan~" I sing, getting him to open his eyes before I throw the snowball in his face, getting up and trying to run. I go a whole two inches before I'm pretty much running in place. I look back and see the three standing there, just staring at me. Completely deadpan.

"I could kill you right now. Seriously, that's not even funny how pathetic that is," Hidan scoffs crossing his arms as I promptly fall back on my a$$ again.

"Ow…" I groan feeling two slender arms hooking underneath my own. Looking up, I see Tobi standing above me, pulling me too my feet.

"C'mon, 'Mori-chan!" He says skittering out in front of me like an overly-excited puppy. He holds his gloved hands out to me and I hesitate. "Tobi will help 'Mori-chan!" I put my hands in his and he starts backing up slowly, his steps never faltering on the slick sheet of ice. I shuffle tentatively, reassured by his strong grip. Before long, his hands are less needed and I'm skating (very, very slowly) almost on my own.

"Very good!" He crows and lets go completely, clapping his hands together. Surprised by my own achievement, I fall backwards again. Looking up, I see Kisame and Itachi instantly by my side as Hidan and Kakuzu tense near us. Deidara and Zetsu both have weird pointy knife things in their hands and Tobi is trying to pull me off of the ice.

Then I hear a gunshot and freeze up.

"Move!" I hear Kisame bellow and the world seems to slow down. Tobi is dragging me under the bleachers they have set up because of the local hockey games that often occur here. The rest of the mugger-ninja are running towards the door and the position where the gunshots came from. I hear laughter and a couple more rounds go off into the ceiling.

"This is beast, man! All these guys are grody!" Their leader says with a slight slur, stumbling a little as he comes in the door.

"It's five o'clock somewhere," I say under my breath as Tobi and I start moving towards the door.

"You!" We both freeze when one of his minions point at us. "Stop movin' around dammit…"

"Don't order them around," Itachi says pointing a knife thing at him. "Or I'll kill you,"

"Ooo," All of the drunk men look at each other, laughing. "What are you going to do? Glare at us?"

"Or this," He throws the knife at one and hits him in the shoulder. He yells in pain, trying to pull it out but soon more knives start flying. Along with bullets, but strangely none of the mugger-ninja get hurt…Crazy mugger-ninja!

"I'm gonna go find Ryuu," I whisper into Tobi's mask and he nods a few times.

"Tobi will cover 'Mori-chan," He says quietly and helps me get back to the nursery.

Inside the worker is gone and Ryuu is sitting in a playpen surrounded by blocks.

"Awntie Mowi!" He squeals throwing his arms up, the blocks go flying.

"Shh," I put a finger to my lips, crouching over like they're actually after me. He looks confused but puts his entire hand to his lips, going "TBTHHHHHH!" I blink a few times, wiping spit off my face. "Close enough," He giggles and holds his arms out to me. I sigh and pick him up.

"Awntie Mowi," He says cuddling into me happily.

"Hey kiddo, let's get out of here," I say and turn around, coming face-to-face with the barrel of a gun. It's pointed right between my eyes and Deidara is frozen in mid-step, his hand reaching out to me.

"'Ello," The leader has blood dripping from the corner of his mouth and there's a bruise forming on his eye. "Don't move or I kill you,"

"Got it," I squeak, going as white as milk. It doesn't take long for the rest of the mugger-ninja to get here and pale as well.

"Well f*ck," Hidan says bluntly, scratching his eyebrow. "Looks like we've got a bit of a dither here don't we?"

"No sh*t Sherlock," I say under my breath and glare at him. Ryuu coos in my arms, reaching up for the gun. I pull him away from it, ignoring the leader's look. "Get me outta this,"

"Shaddup!" The leader growls, back handing me easily. I yelp quietly, biting the inside of my cheek so I don't do anything stupid. "Good b*tch," He says with a drunken laugh.

"HEY!" Hidan yells clenching his fist. "Only I can call her b*tch, you f*cking heathen!"

"One more word and the girl d-" He makes a move to pull the hammer of the gun back but goes starch white, seeing the weapon in Kakuzu's hand. He's idly twirling it around one finger.

"You were saying?" He asks tilting his head to the side slightly. I can see the corners of his eyes getting crow's feet as he smiles. I can see the blood lust starting to seep into Kisame's gaze as he pulls his giant-a$$ sword from his back. The leader starts shaking as Hidan licks his lip, getting his scythe off of his back.

This leaves me with one question ringing in my ears.

"How the HELL did you guys not get caught by police for having those things?!" I ask slumping against the wall, my arms around Ryuu as he claps his hands. Tobi sits next to me, obviously worried that I'm going into shock, as he checks my vital signs and such.

"Magic," Zetsu grunts and his black half cackles. "Can't wait to kill this f*cker! He's been p*ssing me off for way too long!" The man pales even more if that's possible as I put my hands over Ryuu's ears for the screaming.

…line…line…line…line…

"I need a coffee," I groan shoving Ryuu into Itachi's arms and stumbling into the nearest brand-name coffee place. Kisame ducks in the doorway, coming after me as I go to the front of the line, ordering a white chocolate mocha and a chocolate cream cheese muffin. "You want anything?" I ask craning my neck so that I can look up at him. He's staring at the menu like it just said he's been put in the running for president. He starts ordering a long line of lattes and mochas and teas, ending with a hot chocolate for Tobi.

My wallet shrivels into nothingness as I pull my money out of it, paying for the over-priced coffee drinks. I slump against Kisame's leg, chibi tears streaming down my cheeks as I look up at him.

"You guys are going to be the death of me," I say tearfully and he looks at me with three dots over his head.

"Next time you want to buy something, we'll do it our way. Okay?" I nod as he picks me up by the back of my jacket, throwing me over his shoulder as he grabs the drink carrier and muffin before leaving. "I swear, you're the weirdest girl I've ever met,"

"I resent that!" I say to his butt. "You're so mean,"

"Careful not to touch Samehada," He says casually, making me deadpan hugely.

"Are you not listening to me at all?!"

"Not really~"
