Bold is for attacks

Fu's POV

"Wow you rock Eyebrow-Sensei!" Naruto cheered as we locked up Kisame in a stock Captain Yamato made "You beat that guy."

"So Kisame." Deidara took a seat "Got any new info?"

"…" he only blinked.

"Come on we're buds Mhm~" Deidara hummed "You'll share with me right?"

"…"

"I'm going in." a man walked up and placed his hand on Kisame's head, borrowing his mind for information.

"RAHH!"

"GAH!" the man stumbled back "He bit his own tongue off to force me out with pain!"

"ROOOOAAAA!" Kisame roared and busted out of the stock like it was made of paper.

"Holy crap!" I yelled.

"He just doesn't know when to give up!" Guy said getting ready to attack again.

"We want him alive!"

"Water Style: Water Prison Jutsu!"

Kisame surrounded himself with a bubble of solid impenetrable water.

"Don't panic I should be able to blow him out with a bomb." Deidara said "I just need time to mold one."

"We don't have time I'm pulling him out myself!" Yamato said turning his hand to wood.

"Summon!" Kisame wagged his tongue and two sharks appeared in the water.

Yamato moved to grab Kisame but at the same the summoned sharks turned and bit into Kisame, before any of us could react the water prison turned crimson red with blood and popped.

"He had the sharks eat him…" I gasped.

"He was too weak to escape." Yamato said "He knew…"

"So that's the end huh…" Deidara sighed "Kisame Hoshigaki…it was fun while it lasted, wasn't it…Hmm…You're death…was a real explosion."

"He died as to not give up his comrades." Guy-Sensei said "He was a worthy opponent, this was a man who died as a true Shinobi, Kisame Hoshigaki, I won't forget your name."

"We should confirm what they wrote and then destroy it." Someone suggested "Figure out what they wanted to learn."

"Right." Guy-Sensei opened the scroll which glowed bright.

"It's a trap!"

We were all suddenly trapped in water prisons with a shark and a new shark was summoned to take the scroll out to sea.

"It's getting away!"

By the time we all managed to get out of the water prison it was too late, that shark was long gone.

Deidara's POV

"Now they know so they'll be coming for them." I said "Only Zetsu and Madara remain…they won't swim after a giant turtle, they'll have to fly if they want to make it in decent time…cut my leash and I'll slow them down."

"Alright, you have permission to patrol the air." Yamato said "But try anything and that seed I put in you will rip your insides apart."

"I know relax." I said jumping on a giant clay owl "Leave this to me."

I headed into the air and it didn't take me long to find something suspicious, a big mechanical bird with two riders.

That's…

"Sasori…you look like crap." I flew in front of him "But then again you are dead."

"Deidara…so you intend to stop us." He asked.

"Oh trust me, I'll blow you to pieces." I smirked "Why don't we finally settle who's got the better art, Mhm~"

He quickly started swiping strings at me which I blew back with small explosions.

The only way for Sasori to be here is for someone to have used the Inhuman Resurrection on them…it's probably that guy on the bird.

So who's your friend?" I asked blowing up a small butterfly bomb.

"Kabuto." He sighed.

"If we kill Deidara that will give me yet another Akatsuki member for my collection." Kabuto smiled "That will be nice."

His face…what happened to that guy?

"HYA!"

Kabuto was suddenly punched in the back.

"No way…" I looked on "What the hell are you doing here Old Man?!"

Onoki looked at me "I'll deal with you later."

I gulped "…yes sir."

"To be ambushed by the Tsuchikage and his disciple, how interesting." Kabuto said.

"You not fooling me." The old man said "You're a clone."

Kabuto and the bird he was on shattered into wood and the clouds behind us broke to reveal the real body and Sasori's new bird.

"Hmph." I smirked "Nice try Katsu!"

I knocked them off balance before flying back towards the old man who was now accompanied by his granddaughter and the fat sidekick of his.

"I was pretty shocked to hear you were with the leaf and alive Deidara." The old man said.

"My bad Mhm~" I smirked "I didn't have time to write you a letter."

"You have the same bad attitude as ever." Akatsuchi said.

"Lay off tubby." I grumbled "Hmph…Kurotsuchi…you got taller."

"It's nice to see you too Deidara." She fake smiled trying to hide her pissed off look.

"We can do all the catching up later." I smirked "I've gotta protect that island, you three gonna give me a hand or not Mhm~"

"You still so aggravating." The old name groaned.

"If you're too old-."

"Shut it brat!" he snapped.

"Come on Master." I smiled "It'll be just like the old times!"

"I found it, let's go Sasori." Kabuto said.

"They've found it so quickly?!" I hissed.

"After them!" Onoki yelled.

"Oh thanks I hadn't thought of that!" I yelled flying after my former partner.

"Scatter Shot Air Bomb: Katsu!"

Sasori weaved around my attack and a giant snake appeared and flipped the giant turtle.

"It won't swim on that side." Kurotsuchi said.

Kabuto jumped off the bird and got on the island while Sasori turned to face us.

"Come on, you still those flimsy puppets are art?" I asked him "Everlasting is so last season, true art…well that…"

I crossed my fingers to detonate the spider on his should.

"Is an explosion!"

Sasori was rocked to the side as Kabuto landed and took off running.

"You're not getting away!" Onoki said preparing to shoot a dust beam at him.

"Don't do that." Akatsuchi said "You'll blow up the whole island with that."

"Look alive old man!" I yelled as Sasori shot poison daggers at us.

"We gotta get Sasori away from the island if we plan to fight him seriously." I said "My explosions and the old man's dust are too powerful to use near the turtle."

"Deidara…I was disappointed to see what you had become." Sasori said "To betray us…"

"We all have to make choices, and I made mine." I said "I'm turning my life around. Kisame gave himself up to protect Akatsuki, something I couldn't…he was a true ninja, I'm just a coward, but there are things a coward like my can still do!"

I jumped off my owl and slapped clay onto Sasori's chest.

"I can still put my partner back to sleep!" I said "Go back to sleep Sasori!"

"Hmm…"

Just as I was about to detonate my bomb, a coffin appeared and sucked him up, vanishing.

"Dammit." I hissed.

Without a word we headed back to the island.

"What happened?" I asked "are the Jinchuriki still hidden?"

"The Akatsuki puppet user escaped us." The old man said "What happened down here?"

"Yamato the Wood User was captured." Motoi said "Kabuto escaped as well. I can't sense them…wherever they went they're gone."

"If the Jinchuriki are safe that's fine." Onoki nodded "It's that Yamato, he might give up information."

"Yamato would never do that." One of the Leaf Ninjas said.

"It doesn't matter, if he's taken to Madara, the eyes will tell him all." The old man said "We should move the island quickly."

"We'll prepare." Motoi said running off.

The others left and I was left to wait with the old man and his two bodyguards.

"So…" I rubbed the back of my head.

The old man looked at me "You have lot to answer for."

"Yes sir." I got on my knees and bowed "I've brought shame upon our village and you as my teacher, I'll accept any punishment you deem fit, even execution."

"Get up Deidara." He sighed "In this war we'll need every soldier we can get, and especially ones as strong as you, so for now you're on extreme probation. Besides, as your master some of this is my responsibility."

"Thank you Master." I nodded "I won't forget this."

"Being on your knees doesn't really suit you Deidara." Kurotsuchi snickered.

"Oh but it would suit you so well Mhm." I smirked.

"Knock it off!" Master slapped my head "That's my Granddaughter you're talking to!"
