"You're saying you were held captive by the Konoha ninja, Hinata?" Tsunade looks infuriated by that, her pupils flaming with the idea that the most innocent of all the Hyuuga family could be taken captive by such scum.
"Uh-huh," Hinata pushes her fingers together, looking down at them. The pure hatred in her Hokage's voice terrifies her even more than the initial shock of being kidnapped…kinda. Well, in hindsight, it wasn't really kidnapping, more as hanging out with them for a couple of hours. Yeah, that's probably a good way to say it. Hanging out. Yeah… When Hinata realized that Tsunade was still talking…err… ranting, she tuned back in.
"…Scum! They're cold hearted, heartless, cold blooded, killer monsters with a lust for blood! They don't feel anything, they can handle anything."
…line…line…line…line…
"Deidar-uuuuuuuuuuh," I whine, slumping into him. "I'm freeeezing~" He shoves me off and grunts.
"We're all cold so shut up, yeah," He says glaring a little at me.
"Tobi's a cold boy," He says shivering like a little penguin. I squeal quietly to myself at how cute he is before wrapping my arms around him.
"Here Tobi, our combined body heat will keep us warm," He gives a happy noise and hugs me back.
"Tobi loves hugs!" He says glomping me. I give a quite "ack!" and fall over into the snow. Deidara laughs at me and Tobi laughs on me. He's seriously on top of me as he laughs. I glare up at him and he "meep!"s before scampering off.
I sigh and get up, brushing the snow off and trying not to shiver even more.
"You guys are heartless," I grumble under my breath and Tobi looks at me. I deadpan when I see the tears streaming down from his one eyehole.
"TOBI IS NOT A HEARTLESS!" He wails collapsing into a puddle.
"Heh…heartless…" My eyes glaze over in happiness as I remember Kingdom Hearts. "I miss my little Heartless…"
"Your what, un?" Deidara almost looks interested. Almost. He's too busy looking 'cool' to actually show interest. Feh, guys. I wave him off, not feeling like explaining the entire Kingdom Hearts story to him in the span of the rest of the time we're stuck together. It's bad enough that I'm trudging through the snow in freezing weather. Kumori is not a happy person when it comes to cold. Deidara and Tobi look fine now and, when squinting reeeeeeeally hard, I can tell they're using chakra to keep themselves warm.
Those bastards.
…line…line…line…line…
Later, once we've settled down for the night in a fairly roomy cave, I find myself sitting near the fire with my arms around my legs, my chin resting on my knees. Tobi's curled up into a little ball in the dark corner and Deidara's at the mouth, dozing as he keeps watch.
I pull a stick out of the fire with my free hand and prod the fire a couple of times to coax up a few flames. Tobi mumbles something that sounds like "Oh that's nice…" and lets out a sigh of happiness. I sigh myself, shivering and missing my job. And microwave popcorn.
I miss it too~ Inner Kumori wails throwing herself down on a picture. She's drawn a grave with "RIP MICROWAVE POPCORN" written on it in giant block letters. She skips around and throws flowers onto it before twirling and collapsing. Entertain me.
Bite me.
She opens her huge mouth to respond but then there's a breeze and Deidara and Tobi are crouched by the door in defensive positions.
"Wha-?" Deidara shushes me with one finger, glaring death. I hear the thump of footsteps and automatically scurry back into the back of the cave to preserve myself. I'm not a fighter, I'm a fleer.
There's the rumble of a low voice and a higher pitched one follows it, I can almost make out what they're saying. It sounds almost familiar. Deidara relaxes after a couple of seconds but I can tell from the way the vein in his neck is tensed and pulsing he doesn't trust whatever's coming for us. A bead of sweat runs down my temple and down my neck but I resist the urge to wipe it away.
This isn't good.
"KISAME-SAN! ITACHI-SAN!" Tobi yells jovially and runs down to greet them. Kisame gives a booming laugh and ruffles Tobi's hair like a favorite uncle would to his nephew.
"Yo," He greets with a small smirk to Deidara who grunts in return, crossing his arms. Itachi doesn't acknowledge us of course. I get up and walk to the mouth of the cave to Deidara, who stops me with a look.
"Something isn't right, yeah," He says under his breath, so much so I have to strain to hear him. But I know from the way he's looking at me out of the corner of his eye, it's meant for me. I nod slightly, pushing up my glasses. He stretches but I feel something brush past my shoulder blades and tense, noticeably I regret to say.
Itachi's eyes meet mine and narrow a little but I grin stupidly. "I think there's bats in here!" I yell cupping my hands around my mouth so he can hear me. Itachi doesn't say anything but brushes past me as Kisame and Tobi walk up behind him, going on either side of Deidara and me. They settle by the fire and Tobi listens intently as Kisame recounts the latest battle he's been through, which looks recent because of all the blood on Samehada.
"Kumori-chan, un," The blond says and walks out of the cave. The message is clear that he wants me to follow him. So I do. He walks ahead of me for a ways before slowing down so that he can match my pace a little better.
"?" I give him a look that says "don't hurt me I don't know anything" as he turns to face me.
"Something's up with them, yeah," He says leaning against a tree, his arms crossed against his chest again. I notice his hands are drooling.
"What do you mean?" I ask shivering a little. The moonlight shines down on us dramatically.
"I mean, there's something odd about them, un," Deidara says looking like I'm the idiot here.
"Uh…" I deadpan, not really knowing what to say about that. "Maybe it had to do with all the whispering that was going on at that last meeting."
He nods. It's true, I had been spying a little… I just happened to be walking past when I heard whispers from inside the "Real Members Only" meeting room. Of course me and Tobi were the only ones left out.
"We're being hunted more, un," Deidara says and I know what he's about to say must never leave my lips again. Even under pain of death. Well fuck. "They want the rebellious ones to die, yeah." It takes everything I have not to cover my ears and start singing the song that never ends just to block out the hell I know is coming. "Leader-sama has talked about us going our separate ways in small groups in order to make sure our hideout isn't found, like it was when I killed that Suna brat, un," I nod to show I'm listening. It's one of Deidara's favorite and least favorite moments. He killed the Kazekage but he also lost one of the dearest people in the world because of a mistake. He makes sure not to show it around the guys but I can tell from the misty look in his eyes that he really enjoyed arguing with Sasori-san.
"Leader-sama said that he'd make sure to send out the signal when we were to break and when we were to meet, so they shouldn't be here, yeah. Unless something's really wrong." The wind blows my hair over my eyes and I push up my glasses again, knowing deep down that there is something wrong. Something that'll change us.
I don't like the feeling my stomach is giving me and I'm betting it's not that rancid dango Tobi forced me to try.
Well fuck.
