Last night...
They waited for Naruto and the others to return.
However, none of them came back.
Where are they right now? What happened to them?

Early in the morning...

Algaia and the others were awakened by a loud explosion.
When they looked from the direction where the noise came from,
there were smokes and another beam of light appeared,
another explosion happened by the time the light vanished.

Neji: Hime-sama! That must be..

Shikamaru: Let's go!

Algaia: *nods* (Explosions... could it be..)

I nodded as Neji carried me. Since that way we could run faster..
They must know I couldn't catch up to them if I ran with them.

Algaia: (Explosions..) *bites lips*

And the moment we reached the place where the smoke is coming from..
We saw Sasuke and he was bleeding. His wounds were deep.

And the man who gave him those wounds.. and the one responsible
for the explosions.. is just exactly the one I've been expecting.

Deidara.

DAY 24 BEGINS.

Algaia: (OH MY GOOD HEAVENS IT IS HIM) *jaw drop*

Sasuke: Why are you here

Sasuke held on to his bleeding wound while using his
katana as a support to stand. It seems that Deidara
assaulted him suddenly and he was successful.

Algaia: (Um should we treat his wounds or not I don't know if I hate him or something)

Neji: Akatsuki!!!!

Shikamaru: Why are they.. here..

Shikamaru stood in front of me as if he was trying to protect me.
I don't know how I should feel, but I know we're in danger. REAL DANGER.
If ALL of the Akatsuki members are here TOGETHER, we'll be CRUSHED.
But man, I love them. I want to see them.

Deidara: *laughs* HAHAHAHA! How is it? It's awesome, isn't it?
My art is just that amazing, hmm.

Neji: *whispers to Shikamaru and I* I think this is a battle between
Sasuke and Akatsuki. What do we do?

Shikamaru: ......

Deidara: OI! What are you three talking about over there?! *points at Algaia & the others*
!!!! (Is that..?!) Oi, you! The one with orange hair.

Neji: (Damn!)

Shikamaru: Looks like it won't be a fight between Sasuke and Akatsuki anymore.
If you try to pick on the princess, you will pay for it.

Algaia: (WHAT DO I DO) ... *gulps* (I love Deidei-chan too T.T)

Deidara: Ha! Me? PAY? The hell I wont, hmm.

Deidara swayed his arms around, crossed it and kept complaining about
the same thing over and over again. The moment he mentioned
"PAY", someone appeared. Someone who detects money..

Kakuzu... along with Hidan.

Kakuzu: Who's going to pay? No one. Because paying must be expensive.

Hidan: HA! Shut up Kakuzu, I'm really tired of your bullshit already.

Kakuzu: -_-"

Algaia: (OH MY GOODNESS) !!! (Wait why is Shikamaru not reacting?
Didn't Hidan kill Asuma-sensei? What's going on what time are we in :o)

Shikamaru: (This is getting bad.. with just Neji and I, we cannot take
down 3 Akatsukis. Tsk, what to do.. what to do.. Naruto, where are you?!)

Neji: ....... We can't run now..

Deidara: That's cute, you admit your defeat, hmm. :3

Sasuke: Tsk, weaklings. *evil grin* ....

He used his katana as a support to stand up,
my feelings for Sasuke is a love-hate one.
But since I can't help it..when he was about
to fall down to the ground, I catched him.

Shikamaru: H-Hime!

Neji: Don't just move around so recklessly!

Deidara: Don't try to insult me, hm!!! *throws clay bombs*....KATSU!

Deidara attacked us with his detonating clays, Shikamaru and Neji
covered themselves for they were too late to come near me.

Deidara: Hahahaha! *evil laugh* Now THAT. -is art.

Kakuzu: -_- ugly.

Deidara: WHAT DID YOU SAY?!

Hidan: He said it was bullshit

Deidara: WHAT DID YOU TWO SAY

Hidan: We said it's bullshit

Deidara: WHY YOU, HMM!!

Kakuzu: Wait..

Deidara: O.o?

Hidan: What the f&!@^0k is that?! *points over to where Algaia and the others are*

Deidara: What? What? Wha--- *looks at where Hidan was pointing* O__O'.

However.. without realizing it, that golden barrier had activated again.
The explosion did not affect us. The barrier seemed to protect
everyone I wished to be safe or protected.

Sasuke: (This power.. again.. my wounds are slowly healing..)

Algaia: (WOOOOOO YOU GO STRANGE POWERS)

Shikamaru: *eyes widened* WHAT IS.. THAT?!

Neji: !!!?? O_O

Suddenly.. the Akatsuki members chuckled like crazy hyenas.

Sasuke: So you guys know about it..

Deidara: Shut up, bastard Uchiha, hmm!

Algaia: (What are they talking about)

Kakuzu: We need to report this.

Hidan: What? I f(@!^kin want go fight!! >:@

Kakuzu: Let's go you idiot *drags Hidan away*

Deidara: Heh.

The two left and Deidara glanced over at Algaia & Sasuke.

Sasuke: Get out of here. NOW.

Algaia: (BUT)

Neji: He's right, hime. Let's go!

Shikamaru: What are you waiting for? Come on! *holds Algaia's hand*

Deidara: Hand over that girl! *throws detonating clays* KATSU!!!

Algaia: (STOP ASKGASKJ)

It happened again..
That golden barrier.
Protected them.

Algaia: *opens mouth but no voice comes out*  (I want to fight.)

Shikamaru: (She wants to.. fight..?)

Neji: What?!

Deidara: Hmm!

Sasuke: You..

Meanwhile..in another dimension...

France: It has begun. *smiles*

Morpheus: The Goddess, Athena..

France: I wonder how her power would affect the princess's mind? x)

Morpheus: It's going to be crazy. Specially if she will use it on this world.

France: *laughs and licks his icecream* Hahaha.. Oh definitely.

Now back at Algaia....

She stood in front of Sasuke and raised her hands.
Covering him from Deidara.

Algaia: (Deidara-sama! I love you and I want to fight you! :D)

Deidara: So you're going to fight me, hmm? Too bad sistah,
I cannot kill you. Hmm. *shakes his head*

Algaia: (Eh..? .___.) .... *pouts* (But I really have this strong feeling
inside my head and it's begging to burst out already. I feel like.. fighting..)

Sasuke: What the hell do you think you're doing?! Move away!

Sasuke stood up and he was about to push her back,
but suddenly...

Naruto appeared.

He entered the field with such speed and carried
Algaia, he took her away from Sasuke.

Algaia: (N-Naruto!! O_O)

Sasuke: You..

Naruto: Heh! Baka-hime!! I told you, I'll do it for you!
So don't stress yourself out and force yourself to fight.

Shikamaru: N-Naruto.. o.o..

Deidara: NARUTO!! You're here! But then that means you will
only die, hmm.

Naruto: Well you see.. I'm not alone though, you know! ;)

Lee, Kiba, Shino & Choji arrived. It seemed that they had found
Lee.. but Lee was bleeding so bad. He can barely stand.

Algaia: (Lee! What happened asdhsakd who did this)

Shino: We found him unconscious somewhere within the forest.

Kiba: There was another masked shinobi and he just sat there,
watching Lee groan in pain.

Choji: We woke Lee up so that we can save him, but the masked
guy didn't fight us.. he laughed and ran away.

Deidara: ......*smiles* .......... KATSU!!!

We were unaware that Deidara has already planted a really
huge and strong detonating clay beneath us, and another one
he just threw. It exploded together. The impact was too strong.
I was unable to protect Naruto and the others.. I only screamed.

Did my voice come back or was it only my imagination..?

I went blind.

It's too bright.

And lost consciousness...

By the time I woke up...

I was separated from the others.
I am inside a cave, it wasn't that dark.

When I got up from lying down,
I looked around and immediately
laid my eyes on Sasori. 

Sasori: Oh, you are awake. I thought I would wait even longer.
I don't like waiting.

Algaia: (!!!! IT'S SASORI OH MYYYY) O__O *jawdrops*

Sasori: I see, you can't speak, can you? But you exceeded our
expectations a while ago. You screamed and a really strong,
wide magnetic golden field appeared and caused an insane
explosion when it impacted with Deidara's explosions.

Algaia: (I.. I did that? O_O?!)

Sasori: I don't like this. I feel like as if I am talking to a wall.
Here. *walks up to Algaia and gives a tablet*

Algaia: *tilts head* (What is this..? o.O)

Sasori: Take it or die.

Algaia: (ASGSKSA YES!) *swallows it immediately*

Sasori: Speak.

Algaia: Okay

Sasori: Hm.

Algaia: !!! O_O My voice..

Sasori: It will only last for a while. Use it wisely.

Algaia: Y-Yes! T-Thank you.. Sasori-sama! (Dayuum, I love you, you
hot red head!)

Sasori: It's actually nothing, I only did it for myself. I do not like
one sided conversations.

Algaia: (Cold...) xD..

and then Deidara appeared.

Deidara: Yo, Sasori-danna! What's up?! :3

Sasori: She's awake.

Deidara: Oh, she is! Hmm. Hey you, how did you
do that? You are awesome. That explosion was wonderful!

Algaia: R-Really..? Actually I really fascinate your art..

Deidara: *blushes* I-Is that so?! >___> W-Well.. thanks.

Sasori: Hm? What about mine?

Sasori walked up to me and his face was so close to mine.
He bent over to me, for I was sitting down on a rock. He
raised a brow with his arms crossed and asked me.

Sasori: Well?

Deidara: >__>

Algaia: Your art.. it's puppets, right? They're awesome too!

Sasori: You know?

Algaia: (EH!! Yeah T.T) .... umm I heard about it from Naruto and the others!

Deidara: Oh, that kid Naruto told you about us?

Algaia: Yeah, Naruto and the others did. Naruto and the others.. NARUTO AND THE OTHERS.
WAIT WHERE ARE THEY OMG WHAT HAPPENED TO THEM WHAT *panics*

Sasori: Deidara, shut her up.

Deidara: But how?

Sasori: I don't know, kiss her.

Algaia: (NARUTO, KIBA, LEE, SHINO, SHIKAMARU, CHOJI & NEJI WHERE R U BABIES)

Deidara: Y-You do it.

Sasori: Fine. Hey you.

Algaia: *stops* !!! O.O??

Sasori: Don't move, I'll kiss you.

Algaia: WHAT

Deidara: As expected from my man

Sasori: Close your eyes.

Algaia: OH MY, OKAY. *closes eyes*

When I closed my eyes, I felt a really, really,
rough kiss? I don't even know if that was really a kiss.
And when I opened my eyes.. The one kissing
my lips is...

ANOTHER PUPPET!!!!!! >___<

Sasori: So? Can you shut up now?

Deidara: Sasori-danna, where'd you learn that? Now I know
how to shut Hidan up, hmm. Can you let me borrow one of your puppets sometime?

Sasori: Oh sure. Just don't break them. I can still use them.

Deidara: Oh yeah, hmm! :3

Algaia: HOLD ON WHY DID YOU USE A PUPPET .___.

Sasori: What were you expecting?

Sasori moved in closer again and I backed away in fright.
He's scary like Akashi.. they're like twin brothers XD..

Sasori: ..this?

I was surprised by what he did next.
HE ACTUALLY KISSED ME. OH MY GOD.

Deidara: !!! O___O *what the hell face* *disgusted look* O~@

Algaia: *eyes widened* O___O *gulps*

Sasori: You were expecting this, right? Admit it or I'll kill you.

Algaia: (OMG Okay) *nods nervously* (I am blushing like hell..)

Sasori: See? She admits it. Now tell us whose art is better?

Deidara: Oh come on my man, stahp this nonsense, hmm

Algaia: Umm.. (I honestly love you both) .... (AND HEY THEY'RE
ACTING LIKE AS IF NOTHING HAPPENED I MEAN COME ON MAN)

Sasori: So?

Deidara: -__-? *crosses arms* hmm!

Algaia: I really love both. *smiles*

Sasori: ......... *slowly turns red and walks away* (You're too cute,
I am not safe.)

Deidara: O-Oi, Sasori-danna! Where are you going?!

Sasori: Anywhere safe *vanishes*

Deidara: W-Wait! Hmm! *sighs*

Then he looked at me and sighed once again.

Algaia: What's wrong? XD

Deidara: You're an enemy who appreciates our art.. I wish you were
on our side.

Algaia: Ehhh? XD(I ALWAYS WANTED TO BE IN AKATSUKI BUT NARUTO AND ASKDGSA)

Deidara: Your amazing destructive powers! They mesmerize me, hmm!
They're even stronger than mine.. That's why he wants you..

Algaia: Who?

Deidara: SHHH! Pretend to sleep!!! Hurry! Hm!

Algaia: W-Wha..? (Why)

Deidara forced me to lay down, it seems that
something is going to happen..? I obeyed
what he said and closed my eyes.

"Deidara!!!"
A deep, scary voice yelled out to him.

Deidara: Y-YES?! O_O Hmm!

"Why did you keep her? I told you to wait for Orochimaru
  to come out of his hideout then when the kyuubi retrieves the voice,
  snatch it immediately and take the kyuubi too."
The person with such a scary voice said.

Deidara: W-Well pardon.. I thought we could use her this way.

"Whatever, she's already here. keep her. We'll use her in
  the future anyway. KEEP AN EYE ON HER."
 

I can tell that the person is gone, I heard his foot steps
as he walked away.. and I kinda felt the chakra, and now it vanished.

Deidara: Phew! I can't believe that guy is.. (Madara...) hmm!

Algaia: *opens eyes* Who was that

Deidara: Nothing. Hmm

Algaia: (His vibes are killed.. xD) um can I go no--- (WHAT)

Deidara: ??? o_O

Algaia: (My voice!) *panics* (It's gone.. again..)

Deidara: Your voice is gone again, isn't it? Hmm.

Algaia: *nods*

Deidara: Oh. Well look outside. *points*

Algaia: (It's dark o_O)

Deidara: Right it is exactly what you see. You are a princess,
you should sleep already. REST, HMM!

Algaia: (BUT WHERE ARE YOU GOING NOOO I AM SCARED)

Deidara: I will go out for a bit. I need to kill someone.
I'll be back, hmm.

Algaia: *keeps moving her mouth* (VOICE, VOICE, COME ON VOICE)

Deidara: Shut up or I'll kiss you

Algaia: (what) *stops*

Deidara: *kisses her*

Algaia: O___O ... (BUT I SHUT MY MOUTH ALREADY WHY)

Deidara: HAHAHAHA K, bye *jumps on his giant bird clay*

Algaia: (Nooo wait T__T It's scary here.. It seems that..
we're on a high place.. wait why is there even a cave
here. WHAT?) .... *lies down* (Naruto.. what's gonna happen..)

DAY 24 - Kisses from the artists
