Something wasn't right. Deidara felt stalked for some reason, and turned to see for himself.
He studied every bush, grass straw and branch for minutes. " Hello?.. " .
He took a step away from the tree, looking around more, " I know there's someone out there! Un! ".
" Hello there " , a young man adult voice responded from upon. About twenty years old perhaps. Deidara swiftly turned back to the tree, and looked around even more confused. But no one was beeing sighted there. How weird..
Movement took action behind him swiftly, and the blonde turned around once again. This time, a tall masked man with black clothing stood there. He had long, spiky black hair. The mask seemed to be new, and was yellow with black flame pattern. There was one hole, probably for being able to see anything.
" Excuse me?.. " , Deidara snorted, looking up.
" What's your name, young child? " the masked man muttered.
" Why should I tell you? It doesn't matter to you! " , the blonde growled back. But the man before him grabbed his throat, " Tell me now. What is your name? ".
" D-Deidara... " , Deidara tried to kick the stranger away. But he didn't need to as the other let go of him. The blonde rubbed his throat, " What was that for?! Un! Who are you?!".
" Who I am does not matter. Do not ask that again. But I see that you have earned this village's kinjutsu. You're lucky to have these " , the masked man grabbed the blonde's hand hardly. Deidara bit his lip, growling silent. He knew that the stalker meant his mouths, but why?
" Why? Let go of me you idiot! Tell me who you are! "
" Do not ask anymore questions, Deidara. Never. I'm just here to help you with these " , he tightened the grip.
" COWARD! "
" You'll be useful in the future, I know you will. That's why I want you to listen to me. You must show these things that you're the master, and if they don't listen you shall punish them. "
" Punish them..? "
" Hit them against the table, or just simply cut their tongues. They will learn sooner or later to listen. It's about your pride inside too. Never become inferior of them. You are the reason they live "
The blonde tried to pull himself away, but the stranger was too strong. " Got that? " , the older man growled.
Deidara nodded, " Let me go now! ". He was set free, and bumped against the tree. The masked man still stood there, looking nothing but an object. " We shall meet again " , the other spoke before poofing away. Deidara only blinked, highly confused.
Who in the world was even that? Some pedophile for sure. Useful in the future - ew!
The blonde eyed his hands, and sat down against the big tree that was his closest friend now, literally. He had no choice but to follow the masked man's orders, they were kind of smart to be honest. He had to be the boss from now on.
