Sorry it took so long!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! School, ya know? ;This was requested by one of my friends soooooo…………….thank Lexi-chan !

Hhhmmmm, is the story worth continuing? I don’t know…………………… tell me k?

Dei-chan is an…….IT!!!!!( P.S. I KNOW DEIDARA IS A GUY!!!!!!!!!!!!OK?!)

Disclaimer: If I owned naruto, would I really waste my time on a site for FAN FICTION?!?!!?

“ Itachi………” a young man with spiked hair spat out disgustedly. He wore an open, white kimono top and black pants, tied together with a purple sash. He fingered his blade with murderous intent, looking at the Uchiha.

“…………….Sasuke……..” Itachi replied.

The two stared each other down, never taking their eyes off one another. Tension was in the air. No one moved.

Itachi stared at his little brother, “…Sasuke…………………….” the boy flinching at his name. “………………have you gotten taller?!”

Sasuke stared at this quite, well……….”Out-of-character” Itachi.

“Oh! You have gotten taller! My little brother is growing up.” he said, measuring his height to his brother’s. “Just a few more inches and you’ll be as tall as Ni-san!”

“ Sasuke!”

“ We’re here…”

“ To save you!” they yelled out, making everyone turn to see them standing in ridiculous hero poses.

“ WE”

“ARE”

“TEAM…..”

After a dramatic pause, they struck new poses and yelled in unison, “HEBIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

……………….the rest, however, just stared. Until a certain blond yelled out,

“ They’re funny! UN!”

“ Sasuke-kun,” Suigetsu grinned , “ are these the freaks we get to beat up?”

“Suigetsu?”

Suigetsu turned around to see a tall, shark-like man.

“K-kisame?!” he cried, “ Kisame!!!!!!! Look, I have a big sword too!!!”

“ Suigetsu!!!!!!! You’ve really gotten tall! And, hey! Isn’t that Zabuza’s sword?!?!!?!?!”

“ Uh…………….………..…….” he lied through his smile.

“…..OK!” Kisame excepted it, not that he really cared either way. Suigetsu went off with Kisame as they started talking about the good old days.

“ Remember when we killed that old guy?”

“Oh yeah! That was the best! Ha ha!”

The remaining team members looked back to Sasuke. He was still with his brother, who was determined on measuring just how tall Sasuke was compared to him. The duo stared blankly.

“Uwaaah Sasuke-kun, you and your brother look sooooo cute!” Karin squealed.

“….” Sasuke fixed her with a glare that could freeze fire, but she just thought it was cute, and squealed more.

“So………who’s the big guy?” Hidan questioned the last remaining member.

“I am Juugo, nice to meet you, sir.” he said solemnly.

“Hm, well, he sure ‘aint a freak the other ones…..”

“Yeah……he’s actually kind of boring….” Sosari added.

“Kill…”

“Huh?”

“KILL!!!!!!!”

Everyone present jumped back from Juugo’s sudden out-burst.

“I-I need to….KILL!!! SOMEONE, ANYONE!!!! KILL!”

“HE’S A FREAK!!!!!!!!” Hidan yelled. “Man, the dude has, like, bio-polar disease, or something! It’s another Zetsu!!!!!”

All was in uproar. Sasuke and Itachi were having small a family reunion. Suigetsu and Kisame were reminiscing about who they had killed in the past. Karin was clinging to both Sasuke and Itachi, fan-girl squealing. Juugo was chasing Sasori and Hidan around, arguing with himself over which would be first to die.

“Ok, everyone!” Leader shouted agitatedly. “WHAT have we learned today?!”

Answers came pouring in.

“Don’t poke psychos….”

“ Appreciate yourself by allowing yourself the opportunities to grow, develop, and find your true sense of purpose in this life.”

“ Jashin-sama rules you all.”

“ Bunnies can be deceiving.”

“ An apple a day keeps the fan-girls away.”

Leader smacked his forehead pleadingly. He walked off without any further ado. The Akatsuki and Hebi were left alone. The room was filled with silence.

………………………………...

“………..Does anybody want to see Sasuke’s baby pictures?” Itachi inquired cheerily.

“Eeeeeeeee! YES, YES, YES!” Karin dashed over to where Sasuke and Itachi were. Sasuke desperately tried to grab the photos, but to no avail.

“Jump, jump, Sasuke! You’re still not as tall as Ni-san!”

“YOU’RE PRUE EVIL!!!” Sasuke yelled in desperation.

Kisame and Suigetsu turned to each other.

“Hey, what about that time when-”

“OH! Yeah, and he was all like-”

“Exactly!”

“Ha ha! Man……”

“the best of times, totally!”

Juugo and Zetsu busied their selves in a quaint conversation.

“So…..kill anyone lately”? Zetsu inquired.

“ Oh, ya know… a few here, a few there….”

“Yeah, totally…..”

“Uh huh…”

“Yup…..”

“……”

“…………”

“KILL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

“KILL!!!!”

The rest watched, amused.

“Hey, Kakuzu, do we any popcorn?”

“No, Hidan! Popcorn coast money, and money is not something that should be spent!”

“What the & are you talking about?!?!?!!? MONEY is ment to be SPENT!!!!!”

“Are you even CRAZIER than I thought you were?!?!”

“NO, I AM PERFECTLY SANE!!!!!”

“ COULDA FOOLED ME!”

“&$#&!!”

“Don’t you use that tone of voice with me, young man!”

“I’ll $ use whatever &$ tone of $!$& voice I $ want to, &&$#(!!!!!”

The remaining Akatsuki which were not in squable, were, well, fascinated at just how much of an uproar four teenagers could cause.

“ This is quite the day, huh, Deidara?”

“You betcha’ danna!”

“……w-o-w-”

“TOBI IS A GOOD BOY!”

(at the end of the day, after Hebi left.)

“Dattebayo! We’re back!” Naruto yelled into the Akatsuki cave. “Who missed us?!”

“I know I sure didn’t miss these imbeciles…….” Gaara murmered aloud.

“OH! Un, Naru-kun, you missed it! Sasu-kun was here!”

“D-dattebayoooooo?!?!?!!?!?!!?”

“YUP! And he told me he’s gonna stay as far away from us as ninjaly possible, un!”

“SAAAAAAAAASUUUUUUUUUUKEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! COME BAAAAAAAAAACK!!!!!!!”

Naruto was out the door, running as fast as a fox kid in an orange jumpsuit could run. Akatsuki stared at him going.

“So………” Gaara said, breaking through the silence. “ Wuzup?”

A/N: SORRY, again, for how it took! Writer’s block & school don’t go hand’n’hand for a fan fiction writer……. ; & I just decided, I kinda felt a little inspired, so it may noit be as good, &, for that too, I apologize!

The part, “COME BAAAAAAACK!!!!” is kind of an inside joke with my friends & I there was this character (hyperactive/paranoid) in an Asian drama that, whenever his spacey/gloomy friend would get knocked out, he’d start shacking him & yelling “COME BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” Trust me, IT IS HILLARIOUS!!!!!!!!!! If I remembered the name of it, I would SO recommend it to you all I can remember is that it had “proposal” in the title.
