Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto.

How many of you are going to Otakon? Wanna meet up somewhere? XD I'm gonna be Sai! And any Naruto's and Sasuke's that wanna have a threesome, w00t! ... j/k ... I'm not a naughty girl u.u

Hidan's OOC... but I wanted him to be like that. He needed more of an eccentric personality.

Sorry it's short. I'll make up for it next chap... Check out my manga site at SmackJeeve's! It's called Prayer!

Hinata was the first to cry, tears silently sliding down her cheeks as she was hugged by an equally sad Lee. She, being very attached to Naruto, had bit her bottom lip as she watched him toss his large suitcases full of valuable items onto the airport's luggage belt, Silo by his side, holding his chichiue's hand. She had tried hard not to cry, but being as weak as she was, she couldn't help herself.

"Don't cry, Hinata!" Naruto waved his arms around frantically, "I-I'll come back and visit, I promise! And I'll call you every day!"

The blue-haired girl nodded, but her tears didn't stop flowing, the salty liquid dripping from her chin and hitting her feathery coat, "I-I hope you ca-can be happy b-back in Japan," she whispered shakily.

Sasuke stood away from the group, a cellphone to his ear, his special Armani glasses on. He spoke in Japanese so no one around him could hear, and he cringed away when a loud booming voice yelled over the phone, "I miss you Weasel-san! Remember, when you come back we gotta have sex!"

That was Shungiku Hidan, a member of Akatsuki, alongside Itachi. Of course, it wasn't Sasuke he wanted to have sex with, but his older brother, Itachi, who was standing two feet away, picking at a green salad smothered in vinegarette (Tobi had left the night before). The elder Uchiha raised a brow behind a matching pair of Armani glasses and he placed a few dripping lettuce leaves into his mouth, his pink tongue slipping out between luscious lips to wipe the vinegarette away.

Sasuke twitched at the site, "I'd appreciate it if you didn't yell into the speaker. Next time you do that, I'll fire you, understand?" he growled.

Itachi stepped in, "You can't fire him, he works for me."

"But he's my driver," Sasuke added.

"If you fire him, I'll defile Naruto-kun," the weasel took another large bite of salad and munched on the leaves almost thoughtfully, "hm, this is pretty good. I should buy another one before we board the plane," then he walked away, completely ignoring the scowl on his otouto's face.

Fuck, I hate him, the raven hissed mentally, going back to his conversation with Hidan, "listen, have the car there by ten tonight. We should be there by then," there was a silence, then Sasuke snapped his phone shut when Hidan began mumbling about how he missed the feeling of Itachi's skin on his-- "Why can't I have normal, well-behaved workers?" he asked in annoyance.

He glanced over to see Lee giving Naruto a speech about the spirit of youth, Hinata still crying, Sakura biting her bottom lip, and Sai just staring off into space, as if purposely trying to ignore everything around him. To him, it did in fact seem like everything was moving too quickly. It was just the other day that he'd heard Naruto make the decision to move. And now, he was leaving his good friends.

"I'll miss you," Sakura whispered as she hugged her blond friend, "promise me you'll call? Or text message? Or something?" she smiled.

"Every day! It's a promise!" he kissed her on the cheek softly before doing the same to Hinata. He gave Lee a very manly pat on the back, then turned to look at Sai, the other male not looking his way, his cobalt eyes downcast, "Oi, Sai, I don't get a good-bye kiss?" he grinned, hoping to see a smile light up his best friend's face.

Sai let himself look at his best friend and first crush, his lips twitching upwards a bit, "What's the point?"

Naruto blinked, then frowned, "We always kiss before I leave to go somewhere! It's our tradition, asshole!" he then shoved Sai backwards against the large pillar inside of the airport, causing Hinata to yelp in surprise, Lee to cover his eyes, and Sakura to blush, just a bit. Deep, deep, deep down she was a yaoi fangirl. As is every other female in the world.

Sai averted his eyes, "Naruto-san, I--"

"Don't get shy on me now, I want a kiss!" Naruto grinned, oblivious to the odd stare Sasuke was giving him. He swooped down and took his best friend's lips into a heated kiss. Behind them, Sasuke swore he could see a tongue. Sucking on Sai's lower lip, Naruto bit down and pulled away with a tiumphant smirk.

Sai laughed and licked his lips, "I love you, Naruto-san," he whispered so no one else could hear.

Naruto ruffled the other male's hair and smiled, "I love you, too, asshole. Keep yourself healthy and find yourself a good man, ok? For me?"

Sai nodded hesitently.

"And get one of those new womb implants that guys can get. I want little nephews and nieces. Little butt babies," he grinned.

Sai sputtered, "E-excuse me?"

Sasuke sort of felt bad for the other raven. He wouldn't admit it, but unrequited love was one of those things that bothered him to no end... And it bothered him for a very good reason. A very personal reason. He clenched his fists as he saw the pained look on Sai's face, feeling his own heart thump, as if reliving a memory of himself.

A young raven-haired, fourteen-year old ran through the practically empty streets, chasing after a car, his heart beating fast, tears mixed in with the falling rain. His legs wanted to give out, but he kept his fast pace, not wanting to lose sight of the vehicle.

The light ahead turned red, but the car didn't stop speeding, and the boy felt his chest clench. Fear consumed him and his feet abruptly stopped, causing him to skid a bit. His breath came out in foggy huffs and as the car reached the stop-light, his throat constricted.

"Stop..." he whispered.

The car continued on its way towards the light.

He began shaking, then took a step forward, "Stop!" he yelled, but the loud honking of a horn cut off whatever else he was going to say. A truck slammed into the car and sent it overturning a good four times before it came to stop. It didn't even look like a car anymore and oil was spilling onto the streets, as well as a red liquid.

The teenager's eyes widened and he ran forward, more tears staining his cheeks.

"Sanji-sensei!"

Sasuke was snapped out of his memory when Silo tugged on his hand. He looked down and saw the small boy with a kitty hat on, stubby ears sticking up. He'd bought it for the child at one of the many gift shops in the entrance to the airport. Smiling a bit, he said, "Yes?"

"Everyone's left and Chichiue's having trouble finding our terminal," he pointed to the tall blond who was looking around with a confused expression. Itachi was standing beside him, eating another salad, offering no help whatsoever.

Sasuke chuckled and wrapped his fingers around Silo's tiny hand, leading him to the idiotic man he called his friend, "Dobe, we don't need to wait in a terminal."

"Why?" Naruto asked, curious.

"Our plane's here," he turned Naruto towards the large glass windows that seemed to make up the entire wall behind them. The huge plane rolled up, "Nippon Flights" printed on the side.

"...Smartass," Naruto growled, taking Silo's other hand.

Looking from one hand to the other, Silo smiled. He had his beloved Chichiue holding one, and a man he respected very much holding the other. And he knew that both Naruto and Sasuke were very close, so to him, it felt like he had both parents with him again...

xXxXx

A man with stunningly gorgeous violet eyes and silver, slicked-back hair stood in the Tokyo Airport, his arms high up, fingers gripping a large cardboard sign that read: Weasel-san! Your chariot awaits you!

He had a large grin on his face, much similar to Naruto's but with less of a glimmer. He wore the same wardrobe as Itachi and Tobi, the black, red, and white cloak loose on his frame, his creamy chest exposed. Blinking when he saw a plane arrive, he ran past a bunch of chattering people and awaited the entrance of his best friend and long time bed mate. Not lovers... bed mates.

"Weasel-san!" he chirped when people entered, Itachi being the first, his shades still on.

"Hidan," the older Uchiha greeted with a warmer than usual tone. He didn't resist when the silver-haired driver leaped on him and gave him a wet smack on the cheek. He smirked, and straightened Hidan's collar, "Deidara chose not to come?"

Hidan nodded and looked over his friend's shoulder, "He and Sasori were getting rid of some newbie at Orochimaru's company," he grinned slyly, "soooo, where's Sasu-chan's lead actor?"

"Good ol' Japanese oxygen! You can't beat it!" Naruto laughed as he, Silo, and Sasuke entered, all of their hands still linked. Silo had insisted they keep it that way, content with the warm feeling that bubbled in his chest. It was the feeling of having a complete family.

Hidan raised a brow, "He has a kid? Man, that alone is going to make him just as popular as Sasuke, don't you think? Girls dig a single father," he laughed and ran to greet the blond, "Yo! My name's Shungiku Hidan, and you must be Uzumaki Naruto!" he held out his hand, "I'm Weasel-san's best friend, bed mate, and partner in crime!" he struck a pose.

Naruto blinked, then shook his hand with a wide smile, "Nice to meet you. This is my son Silo," he pushed the little crow forward a bit and the boy bit back a yelp. Silo slowly blinked thick lashes and took Hidan's offered hand, his small palm pressing against the large one.

"Hi there, kiddo! You know, Itachi and I were thinking about adopting," Hidan snickered when he heard an annoyed "hn" behind him, "so maybe you could have a little playmate. There aren't really any kids on the set-- Oh, wait!" he turned to Itachi, "doesn't Kakashi have one?"

Sasuke narrowed his eyes, "He only comes to the building with him every day," he growled.

Hidan laughed nervously, "Yes, well, I don't pay attention to small details," he waved it off, "By the way, where is ol' Scarecrow?"

Sasuke crossed his arms, keeping a look out for any possibility of fangirls or fanboys, "He came back to Tokyo two days ago. Didn't he contact you?"

Itachi cut him off, "He said he was going to take Haruka to Hokkaido for a while, to visit his mother."

Naruto turned to Sasuke in confusion, "Haruka?"

The raven knew he'd have to tell Naruto. The child was kept a secret from the public because of the scandal it would've brought to the papers, but Kakashi did indeed have a child. A young boy named Haruka.

"He's Kakashi's seven-year old son. Just remember not to mention him during interviews or in public."

Naruto nodded.

"So!" Hidan interrupted, "I think we should get going!" he grinned, "I'm starving, my head hurts, and I still need to show you your new place. I think you'll like Kinpatsu-cha! It's HUGE!"

"Kinpatsu-cha...?"

Itachi snorted, "Don't mind his humorless nicknames."

Hidan rubbed up against the taller Uchiha and purred, "Oh, you know you like my silly nicknames, Weasel-san," he huffed when he was pushed away, "Hm, well, let's get going. I left the limo on so it could heat up. It's fuckin' cold out!" he yanked his arms into the sleeves and crossed them inside, over his chest, not wanting to freeze his poor little fingers.

"You left it on?" Sasuke asked, incredulous, "someone could've stolen it."

"Maa, I doubt it. That car has three alarms. One that shocks whoever touches it that's NOT me, one that sets off a loud ass siren, and then another that vibrates the keys in my pocket," he snickered, "kinky as shit, right?"

Naruto laughed, already liking the guy.

Sasuke groaned beside them.

xXxXx

The black limo drove up the gravel hill, a house coming into view from behind a large mass of mangroves, their roots jutting up out of the ground on the sides of the road. Hidan purposely drove over one of them and Silo buried himself into his father's chest, whining. The silver-haired man laughed and parked the car just outside of a large garage.

The home, itself, was enormous. It was a light peach color and it reminded Naruto of one of those nifty beach houses on MTV Cribs. There was a pool in the back that you could just barely see from the front yard and there were large trees everywhere, moss hanging from them, some scattered in the green yard.

Naruto grinned, "We're seriously living here? It's huge!"

"Yep, that's what I told you," Hidan commented while pulling out a pair of keys and handing them to the excited blond, "here you go, Kinpatsu-cha. The place's all yours."

The newbie actor motioned for Silo to move in front of him and he gave the child the key with a smile, "You do it, ok?"

Silo nodded eagerly and put the key into the clean door knob, pushing the door open and gaping. The inside was--was--

"I've always dreamt of having a house I could get lost in!" Naruto ran past Silo, laughing his ass off as he searched around. Sasuke came up behind the small crow and lifted him up, setting him on his shoulders.

"Let's follow him, hm? Don't want him to get lost," he smirked and Silo giggled cutely as they trailed after the blond.

Itachi looked over at his best friend with gleaming eyes. He'd noticed that Hidan was a tad bit more cheerful than usual. Of course, it could just be because he'd missed him, but Itachi had gone on long trips many times and Hidan had never acted any differently when they met up in the airport. Something must've happened.

"He and Sasori were getting rid of some newbie at Orochimaru's company."

The raven turned toward Hidan (who was inspecting some naked angel statue near the kitchen) and touched the man's shoulder. The other Akatsuki member craned his neck and blinked violet eyes, "What is it?" he asked, a bit calmer than before.

"In the airport, you had said that Deidara and Sasori were getting rid of someone at Orochimaru's company. Did that snake make a move not planned?" he asked, his tone serious.

Hidan gave him a reassuring smile, "Don't worry about it, Weasel-san, you know we won't let your company sink. No need to worry about what Orochimaru does, huh?" he grinned, the same toothy grin that attracted Itachi.

"Yes, but I want to know what he did," Itachi pressed on.

"Oh, you know, same as always," Hidan waved his hand absently, "paying little sluts to come into our company and try to get information," he snickered, "man, doesn't he know most of the higher ups are gay? WELL, like I was saying, he sent in some chick and she pretended to be someone wanting to get a job in the acting business. Deidara played along for a bit, but when the girl tried to put the moves on him, he slammed her against the wall and pulled out a gun," he grinned, "I'm sure that she's been put into a brothel already."

Itachi scrunched his nose up in distaste, "I despise women. They think they can seduce any man with their hideous bodies."

"Weasel-san, why can't we just kill Orochimaru?" Hidan asked, "it'd be a lot easier than just getting rid of the tramps he sends out. Shoot the bastard in the head and get rid of the body. Lead evidence to someone in his company, or something."

"To the public, his company and mine are seen as rivals. If he were to suddenly die, then everything would lead to us. As everyone in Japan knows, people in the acting business will kill to get just about anything," he smirked and watched as Silo ran around in the large living room with his blond father, the two of them trying to convince Sasuke to play hide and go seek with them.

"I'm sick of just dealing with his puppets," Hidan scratched the back of his neck, "Hn, well, I guess I'll just have to wait until he makes his move first, eh?" he grinned and fingered the gun in the pocket inside of his cloak.

Itachi nodded slowly, "But you already know not to do anything stupid. If you do and get yourself killed, your body's going into a kiln. I won't dirty my hands digging a grave for a reckless fool."

Hidan laughed, "Yeah, yeah, I know. Nothing reckless. But I'm sure you'd dig a grave for me, even if I did do something stupid."

"Hn."

"Awww, you would, wouldn't you?"

"..."

"Admit it, you love me!" the silver-haired driver waltzed around the other Akatsuki member, swinging his hips like an idiot, "say it! Say you love me! Say 'Oh great Shungiku-sama! I bow down to you and kiss the ground you walk on! Oh merciful-- GAH!"

Itachi retracted his fist from the male's stomach and shook it, his knuckles sore.

"D-Damn, I knew I sh-should've kept m-my mouth shut..." Hidan held his stomach and whined.

What great friends those two were.

Sorry it was so short. I'll make up for it!
