"What the hell, Kakuzu? I don't know what you're talking about! I swear! Who's the hell is the 'her'?" I was about to punch him when a scream howled though the halls. Both of us where off in running before we knew it. Cyn… I hope she's okay; the scream was a girl's and came for mine and Hidan's room. Shit, I passed Hidan in the hall! He was going to our room! I started to run faster and smashed the door open, almost throwing it off its hinges.


Kakuzu P.O.V
Kisame and I stood in absolute disbelief. No one said a word; the only sound was the painful whimpering from the floor.


Aishi's POV
I stood there at the man called Kisame, what an interesting name…. His eyes, they remind me of a vast ocean. I can just stare at the blue beauties for hours at a time and be impressed by the incredible creation that is Kisame's eyes. I wonder why he keeps one covered up…. I think they're beautiful, much more than my monstrosities.

….. Wait. Why am I thinking this? I just met this blonde, even if he is incredibly sexy…. Wait. Not helping!

"So Kisame, when do I get my cloak?" I ask the blonde, who I CANNOT stop thinking about. He looked at me for a moment like 'um, what?' then he seemed to remember something.

"I don't actually have them myself. See, Deidara is the one who will give them to you. I just point people in the right direction…" This seems a little off… I think he's not telling me the whole story.

Suddenly, someone angrily bursts though the door.

"Deidara! Where did you put my puppet? You failure as an artist!"

The light pops on, it all makes sense. He isn't Kisame; he was just playing with Cyn. I hope he didn't get her in much trouble. Then when I wanted what the real Kisame has he had to say part of the truth, the fact that he doesn't have it… so he switched the names around again.

"Hey, Aishi chick, un!"

"Huh?"

"About time." The red one said. " You were in La La Land for a few minutes now… you okay?" Oh, I have to stop doing that whenever I think…

"So, Deidara. Where can I find Kisame?" I say to let him know that I figured his scam out.

"Fuck. I wanted to mess with your friend, okay?" He tried to explain his actions, most likely so this wouldn't get him in trouble… "Let's make a deal, yeah. I show you where to get your cloaks and you forget what happened." As I'm considerin-

"Brat, what did you do to the poor girl?"

"Oh, sorry Danna. I almost forgot you were there, un."

"Oh, really. Well, 'almost forgetting I'm here' could cost you getting cleaning duties for the next three months from Pein."

It seems I'm observing a rather interesting conversation. If I don't talk much I think they'd forget that I'm here… but, I still do need Cyn's and my cloak.

"Sasori, that's unnecessary, un. When have I ever done something like this to you?"

"Well, you just stole my puppet. Or did you forget that so quickly, brat."

"Well, you greedy 'artist'. Anything I can do to please you, un?"

"Let me think about it for a second, brat. How about an apprentice to assist me built puppets? The better art."

"I think I could do that, un. Hey, quiet girl. Do you like woodwork?"

What? Is he trying to throw his punishment onto me? He still owes me. He really is an idiot. However, it could help my relationships with the Akatsuki. That isn't necessary a bad thing.

"Alright, but then you have to get our cloaks from Kisame and put them in our rooms, and you owe me." Hopefully this will come in handy later.

"Come here girl, I'm restoring some right now. Brat, get my puppet and put it back from where you found it." Without another word the monotone ginger walks out and leads me with him.

As we're walking down the hallway we stop and listen to the highest pitch scream I've ever heard. Did Deidara do something that could hurt Cyn? I better go find out.


Kisame's POV

For a few moments I and Kakuzu didn't know what to do. A few more members quickly skidded into the room and stood into the same shock as us. Deidara was the first of us to gain composure. He burst out laughing holding his stomach and soon all of us save for the quite girl and Sasori joined him in laughing.

"Fuck you guys! This hurts god damn it!" Hidan cussed from his crippled position on the floor. Blood dripped from his nose as he curled more into the fetal position holding his crotch. Cyn look mighty proud of herself.

"You deserved it, fuck'n pervert." Her smirk quickly turned to a scowl as she looked at one of us. "There you are Kisame!" She growled, wait what the hell did I do? "Not so tough when you're on the ground, eh? Where are our cloaks?" Wait, what? What the hell did I do! Oh… wait… She's not looking at me..?

"It was you Deidara? What do you have against her?" Kakuzu yelled pissed that he went after the wrong 'Kisame'. A look of oh-shit passed over his face before he bolted from the room Kakuzu quickly on his tail. Cyn started to laugh and Kakuzu returned just a fast as he left, Deidara over his shoulder. He threw the blonde to the ground on top of Hidan as the little one moved to speak up.

"Cyn, I already talked to him about it. Leave him alone, he just wanted a little fun. He'd said he get our cloaks to make up for it."

"Aww! Does my little Aishi have a crush on the flying fuck'tard? Strange taste…." I had to laugh at that one. Aishi turn beat red just as Cyn spoke. "Oh you're blushing!" Deidara looked up over his shoulder with some hope gleaming in his eye.

"…Just leave him alone."

"Ah, fine, but it isn't me who he ended up troubling." She looks up to Kakuzu who just gave her a shrug. "Oh! I got an idea! Since he's your pet, Aishi, make him do something to make it up to Kakuzu and Kisame, eh?" I don't think she liked Cyn's terminology.

"Pet…" both Aishi and Deidara inquired. She smirked. Sasori silently left, I don't think he enjoyed seeing his own pet fawn over his partner.
