SPRING BREAK! YES!

Enjoy.

Itami was getting very uncomfortable in her hiding spot. She didn't want to move and risk getting caught, but she knew for certain that when her rescuers arrived she was going to yell at them for taking their sweet time.

"Did you check the clothes racks?" Alice asked Sasuke, who was looking like a kid who didn't get what they wanted. Suigetsu laughed from behind him.

"We didn't check the most obvious place?" he questioned before laughing again upon realizing that the answer to his question was yes.

'Shit. My morons have like, less than a minute to get here!' Itami realized, pulling her switch blade from her pocket. She sat in wait, and when the clothes in front of her parted, and a familiar face was there, Itami leapt.

She slashed at Karin, who screeched and jumped back, avoiding Itami. Itami got to her feet quickly and ran through the racks towards the exit where Alice was ready and bracing herself.

"Fuck you!" Itami yelled, sliding under Alice. She stood in time to fly right into Jugo, who had waited for this to happen.

"I hate life. It's so cruel to me." Itami muttered as she fell back onto her ass. She looked around for an escape route as Jugo lifted her up with one hand.

"Drop the girl." Itami grinned upon hearing the voice of one of her morons.

"Yes! I can do this now!" and then, Itami kicked backwards getting Jugo where no male wanted to be kicked with boots like Itami's. He dropped her and she ran to where her morons were. Sasuke, Alice, Karin and Suigetsu ran over to where they were and Itami smirked.

"Itami, you did not warn us this beforehand." Pein growled. Itami shrugged.

"I found it irrelevant who they were." she replied. Pein sighed as Deidara pulled Itami to him.

"Let's get out of here, un." and he disappeared. Konan, Pein, and Sasori followed, but not before Sasori was able to discreetly put a chakra tracker on Sasuke, Alice, Karin, and Suigetsu.

Itami's POV

We made it back to my house in record time, by that I mean we went so fast I thought the air was trying to stab my face. When Deidara placed me down I turned around and scowled at them.

"Well you all took your damn time!" I snapped. Konan gave me a cheeky smile.

"You didn't tell us that there were ninja there, we had to take extra precautions." she replied. I shook my head and turned around, stalking into the kitchen.

"You all can fend for yourselves! I'm making food for me and me alone!" I yelled.

"What?!" various yells came back to me.

"You all heard me!" I shouted back as I checked the time, it was late enough for dinner. I began making food, deciding that Hidan, Kakuzu, my brothers, Tobi, and Itachi could get food since they had no part in it.

You do not piss me off or else you don't get food.

Going back to school after my suspension sucked, especially since some of the freshmen thought they could hit on me and get away with it. And I also had to meet with the fucking hippie counselor everyday at lunch. But other than that, the most interesting things happened at home because of my morons and my brothers.

"We are watching my show!" yelled Jack, face to face with Hidan who wanted to watch some bloody horror movie that was on.

"No we fucking are not!" snarled Hidan. Konan and I shared a look and I stood up. They were wrestling over the remote so I walked over, smacked both them upside the head, grabbed the remote and pushed Deidara out of the recliner. I sat down and flipped through the channels until found one playing Princess Mononoke.

"What crawled up your ass and died today, hm?" asked Deidara as he stood from the floor where I had pushed him.

"Don't tell me it's that time of the month again." groaned Jack from his new position; squished on the couch between Kisame and Kakuzu.

"Asshole, no, I'm just in a bad mood. Just because I'm a girl doesn't mean my monthly time makes me any different!" I snapped.

"It does," Kisame interjected, "You get a lot meaner and violent on that time." Kisame was now the object my scowling was directed at.

"Excuse me! I'd like to see all you ninja guys go through a period just once so that you can see why I try and kill everyone!" I snarled before standing. I threw the remote at Hidan and nailed him in the face before I stomped upstairs.

"Inconsiderate assholes." I head Konan sigh before I pulled my trapdoor up and went on my laptop to entertain myself.

I messed around a little, not really doing anything too serious. But then something caught my attention.

"Hm?" I clicked on the link that led me to a nut job website for people who believed in all-powerful gods and stuff like the end of the world and the apocalypse. What got my attention though, was that I saw Jashin in the link.

"Mm….. interesting." I then began to read the article before I typed it up in my own words for easier reading if I ever needed the information. With the way my life was going, I would think the information would be helpful.

'Jashinism is a violent religion that worships a death god known as Jashin; it is believed that this god is really the true god of death, Shinigami. Jashinists are known to self harm or to have homicidal urges to please their god.' I found that on Jashinism, it's a good thing to know that because I do follow the religion that I'll get homicidal urges. Great.

Next.

'The goddess of life and death. Not much is known about this goddess due to her relation with Shinigami. What is known though is that she represents children, love, life, rebirth, and death. Her name is unknown but she is given the appearance of an angelic beautiful woman who lights up darkness.'

I had decided to think that this goddess was the angel that visited me before, like when I had been shot and when my lack of sleep had caught up to me. She fit the description, angelic and pretty, so my deduction did make sense!

Finally, I researched the Prime Being that the angel called me stupid over.

'The Prime Being is a subject not many know about. However what has been deducted is that it is a mystical being that controls space and dimensions. It has given lands and jobs to other gods and goddesses; it is the origin of the powers of the gods and goddesses. It has no human form and in other religions is much like God, and the Prime Beings 'disciples' would be the gods and goddesses created by it.'

I had been very satisfied with my work and went downstairs to cook in high spirits.

After the dinner I had prepared for myself and my morons I went back to my computer. How my phone caught my attention as it started ringing. I grabbed it and picked it up when I saw it was Kayan calling.

"Yeah?" I asked, picking it up.

"Hey Itami…" I heard Kayan mutter on the other end.

"What's up?" I inquired, hearing the sadness in her voice.

"My brothers going away to a boarding school, even though he's an annoying little asshole it makes me sad he's going away." sighed Kayan.

"Ah, that sucks…" I paused as I heard some yelling from downstairs, "Damn it, my morons are being morons." Kayan laughed.

"Your morons are being morons? Your morons are those people from the mall right?" asked Kayan.

"Yeah…." I heard a crash, "That doesn't sound good; I'm going to go down and see what's up." Holding the phone to my ear I trooped downstairs to find Jack and Chris yelling at Hidan who was yelling right back. All the while, Tobi was cowering in the corner.

"What happened?" I questioned Konan who was shaking her head.

"Tobi changed the channel on your brothers and Hidan. Hidan broke that frame trying to kill Tobi." Konan answered before pointing to the broken picture on the wall of my brothers and I when we were young. I sighed as I heard laughing from my phone.

"Morons!" I yelled, causing Hidan and my brothers to stop and look at me, "What the fuck do you three think you're doing?"

"He started it," all three pointed at someone else, making it a circle of pointing, upon realizing this all three exclaimed, "No! It was him!" And then they changed who they were pointing at. I shook my head as Deidara and Kisame began laughing from behind me.

"I don't care who started it but I'm ending it, go to sleep before I kill you and have Zetsu eat the body." Giving a round of glares to them I pulled my phone back to my ear and headed back to my room.

"Eat the body?" I heard Kayan ask.

"He's from my therapy group, he thinks he's a cannibal so he would try to eat you. If given enough time, he might be able to." I dismissed easily, Kayan being Kayan believed me with no question.

"Anyway, so how are you?" I sighed when I heard Kayan ask this. Ever since I was shot, she always wanted to know how I was.

"Hey Kayan, tomorrow you and me, let's hang out, walk around the city, you'll see that I'm fine and not dying." I ordered.

"Sure, tomorrow at noon?" asked Kayan.

"Yeah, we can meet down the block from my house. See you." I hung up and tossed my phone onto my beanbag chair, a new edition to my room, before I threw myself on my bed.

"I'm going to need as much sleep as possible to deal with Kayan." I groaned before turning my light off and trying to sleep. I didn't even care that I hadn't changed. And surprisingly, I fell into a deep sleep moments later.

0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o 0o0o

The next morning I woke up because there was a bright light on my face. I blinked a few times to get used to the brightness before I turned to look at the clock.

"FUCK! It's almost noon!" I jumped up and looking in my mirror to make sure I didn't look like a complete mess. I pulled my hair from its messy pony tail and allowed it to fall down in neat, pin straight strands. Instead of pulling it back up I instead just pulled off my sweatshirt and pulled a new one on. Now I looked fine.

I opened up my trapdoor and ran down it before I ran into the kitchen where I found my morons all sitting around on various chairs we had taken from various rooms.

"Tami, you disappointed us. You didn't wake up for breakfast."Jack pointed at me. I just gave him a death glare and settled for grabbing a chocolate pop tart from one of the many boxes they had pulled from the pantry.

"I'm going out with Kayan today." I informed everyone.

"What if you run into Sasuke and them?" questioned Itachi. I shrugged.

"Run away, hide, and call you guys again probably. It was effective for the most part." I replied simply as I shoved another pop tart in my mouth.

"Where are you two going?" inquired Konan. I shrugged again.

"Kayan's been worrying over me since she thinks it's her fault I was shot, we're just going to walk around to prove that I'm not dying." I answered as I checked the time again.

"Its noon, see you guys later!" I jogged from the room and left my house. My neighbor gave me a dirty look as she straightened her front garden, more specifically her garden gnomes.

"Damn old coot, I'm not a punk." I muttered as I walked past her house. She thought I was a punk who caused everything that went wrong, honestly! The people that I live around. We have a crazy woman who lives with her dog who spreads gossip like crazy, a paranoid lady who blames me for everything, a normal family that I don't mind, the crazy pervert next door, and the cat lady who has more cats then I can count.

I should have given her the cats I found in the box; my life would have been easier. I wouldn't have to feed, deal with, or house extra people.

"Itami!" Moments after hearing my name I was tackled in a hug and knocked over. After being hugged for about a minute I shoved my attacker off and glared at Kayan. However, then I stared.

"You cut your fucking hair." I stated, staring. Kayan's once long brown-blonde hair was now just to mid back and not waist length.

"Now it's a similar length to yours." Kayan said proudly in reply to my statement. I shook my head.

"Kayan, your hair was to die for when it was seriously long. But enough hair talk, let's go for a walk." We headed into the city with Kayan talking a mile a minute. However something didn't escape my notice. She wasn't herself, she was quieter, less bold, she stayed out of certain topics that before she would jump into and she just seemed more…somber.

I did not like this.

"Kayan, you ok? You seem different lately." I commented, actually worried for my friend. Kayan shrugged.

"I guess….. I'm fine…. really. No need to worry." Kayan grinned at me, and I gave her a fake smile back. I looked past her smile though to her eyes, and I saw she was hiding something. But I didn't push it.

"Ooh, can we stop in the video store? I want to get new equipment." Kayan asked excitedly, pointing to the store. Now, Kayan wasn't the smartest tool in the box, but she was a wiz when it came to videos. She could edit things; add in things, special effects. Her skills were unbelievable and I saw her going far with them.

"Sure." We walked in and Kayan immediately went over to one of the sections. I simply leaned against the wall, waiting for her to finish. Kayan spoke to me a mile a minute, but I was only half listening. Rather I was thinking.

What had caused the Akatsuki and Hebi to come here? I had figured out why I had gone back and forth between places, my mind had traveled. However the Akatsuki weren't in the same boat as me, their mind and their only body was here. So how did they get here?

Next is what they're going to do, how they're going to get back. We need to figure out how they got here, obviously, but I had no idea. I was able to figure out what happened to me because of an angel, but I'm not going to be visited by the angel again so I couldn't get a hint again.

What happened now could have happened to anyone. Two men, dressed all in black with ski masks entered the shop. As soon as they were in, from one of their pockets they pulled out a gun.

"Freeze! No one move!" Kayan whipped around and I merely looked from the corner of my eye. Kayan's eyes widened and I could see she was breathing heavily, staring at the gun. She was afraid.

"Don't shoot!" begged the man at the counter, a middle-aged guy with balding brown hair that was turning grey.

"Give us all the money you have!" ordered the man without the gun, he pulled out a large sack that he held open. The balding man slowly began to pull things out from the cash register; the guy with the gun took a shot at the wall.

"Hurry up before the cops get here!" he barked. He took another shot, this one dangerously close to Kayan whose breathing started coming in quick, short gasps.

Unfortunately, the man at the counter instead moved and hit a button that set out an alarm. The man with the gun took a shot and the man ducked behind the counter, not moving.

"Shit." I muttered. The man with the gun shot at the counter, making the glass shatter. Without thinking, I took off in the direction of the man with the gun. I was lucky though, they hadn't noticed me. I could have pulled it off….. could have.

"Itami, no!" Kayan yelled, announcing my presence to the man. He whipped around as I reached him. I grabbed at his gun and hit his arm up, so that when he shot he shot the ceiling. We wrestled for the gun and I was too preoccupied with the gun I didn't notice the other guy come up from behind me.

"Fuck!" I was hit on the side of my head, but I didn't lose my focus on the gun. Instead, I kicked backwards, almost grinning when the guy behind me yelled in pain. It was a reflex for me to kick for that spot on guys, an excellent defense as you can see.

"Itami!" I heard Kayan scream as the gun went off again. It slipped from our grasp and flew across the room, sliding across the floor. The guy and I both took off after it. I dived for it as the other guy grabbed my foot and slid me into the wall. He reached the gun as I got up. He turned to me and pointed the gun at me.

"Don't move or I'll shoot!" he yelled, his finger pushing the trigger slightly.

"Then shoot." I ran forward and threw myself to the side, miraculously managing to avoid being shot. That move worked this time, the first time I had tried that move back in the alley I had been too slow. This time I was faster, stronger, and I was trained more.

I tackled the guy and we rolled across the floor, the gun being pushed back and forth. I heard a thud somewhere away from us and caught a glimpse of the man from behind the counter, nursing a bleeding arm, tackle the other guy who had got up to aid the guy I was fighting.

"Asshole!" The man I was fighting kicked me and I flew back, landing in the glass from the broken counter. I groaned and stayed down, the shards digging into my back. The man gave me a look before he turned to Kayan who was cowering in the corner. He grabbed her and held her with the gun to her head.

"Stop moving or else I shoot her!" The balding man from the counter stopped, the gunman gestured to the register, "Money, now. Stop fooling around!" I pretended to be unconscious as they both approached me as I was by the register. When they were close I kicked up, sending the man's gun up. He once again shot the ceiling and Kayan flew out of his grasp. He pointed the gun at her and without thinking I jumped up and stood in front of her, my arms wide.

Our situation now was like this. He was pointing the gun right at me and I was standing in front of Kayan to protect her. Glass shards were embedded in my back, and from Kayan's burning gaze I could tell my back was bleeding badly. It hurt, sure, but the adrenaline coursing through me numbed it a bit.

"You gonna shoot me?" I asked the guy, "You really going to take a human life?" I was out of options, I was going to try and negotiate now. I probably should have tried this first, but I had acted before I could think.

"I could, are you afraid girl?" he laughed, thinking he had the upper hand. I laughed at him in return.

"Afraid? I was shot before by a gang member, I was stabbed before, I don't fear death. I don't fear guns, I don't fear being shot, and I definitely do not fear you. Go ahead and shoot me, but then if you get out of this you get to live with the heaviness of stealing someone's life on your shoulders. If you're brought to jail, you get to stay there for what? Twenty years, I think, I'm not studying to be a cop but I think that's what the cop shows say. Then add the robbery charge." The man flinched slightly, but kept pointing the gun at me.

"I will shoot, I'll kill you. Then if I can't get out, I'll kill myself, won't have to live with it." I shrugged.

"Then do it, but what about after death? Whatever you believe in, hell, heaven, God, gods and goddesses, what would happen then? To take a life…. if you think you can do it… then pull that trigger." I paused then, a sudden flash making me turn my head. I smirked, looking out the door to see police cars; I nodded at the window, "See that? You're screwed; don't add my death to your record." The man lowered the gun slightly, and I grinned.

"Good choice." But then, he surprised me by picking it up again.

"Then I'll take you all down with me!" He pulled the trigger and I felt pain throughout my entire torso. He continuously pulled the trigger until all you heard was the clicking of the empty gun.

"ITAMI!" Kayan screamed blood murder, which this would possibly end up being. Mine of course.

I managed to stand though, and as I felt blood pour from bullet holes on my chest and blood dribbled from the corner of my mouth, I looked at the man. His gun was empty now; he had used all his bullets from hitting nothing and hitting me.

"Heh, happy now?" The doors flew open as police officers entered the building after seeing him shoot me. The man who had held the sack was taken down, and the guy with the gun was cornered. He looked between the officers and me, and dropped the gun. I started coughing, causing more blood to come from my mouth.

I fell to my knees, then to my side. I heard officers yelling and running, paramedics came in. A black haze was coming around my vision and I heard Kayan screaming. I turned my head and saw Kayan being pulled back by some officers. I managed to look down at my chest. I wanted to see my injuries, but I was unable to focus.

I was dizzy, my vision was blurring and I was losing sight fast. My hearing was faulty, everything coming in wrong. I closed my eyes as I started laughing. I don't know why I was laughing. I think it was because I found it funny. I was always getting hurt, to near death.

Heh, and hadn't I just said that I probably wasn't seeing that angel again?

"ITAMI! Stay awake!" Kayan's screaming made me open my eyes and as my vision began to completely fade, I looked at her. And, I smiled.

Then, everything went black.

I think life hates me.

AN

Yeah... guns and Itami don't get along. And if you've just read Wide Awake and not Insomnia, you may be confused...

So yeah….. I hate this chapter. Hate it. With a burning passion. It's because I couldn't think of anything for the beginning, then the thing with Kayan I had planned for later, but it just….came to me.

You may not get a chapter for quite awhile because my lovely beta won't be able to beta until the 7th... so hope i manage to get the next chapter done and sent before she can't look at it.

A-I have a ton of stuff, an Akatsuki lanyard, Naruto videogames, I have a Deidara, Neji, and Tobi plushie, I have a VERY soft Akatsuki cloud blanket, an Akatsuki wall scroll, three Naruto necklaces including the Leaf symbol, the Uchiha symbol and a Jashinist pendant. I have an Itachi shirt and an Akatsuki cloud shirt, i have an Akatsuki cloud beanie, i have a disc set of Naruto, and I have Shuriken earrings. I also have Akatsuki pins but i always forget about them. Then today, my Akatsuki sweatshirt came. It's two big for me and my dad was wearing it to piss me off because it's his size. I had to tackle him to get it back.

Q-Hmm... What's a good movie? Like... your favorite movie. A movie you would recommend. If you can't think of a movie, then give me a book. Or a Fanfic.

Sayonara!
