Raven Blossom series: Midnight Blossom

Five Nights At Itachi's pt.2

Itachi

"I'm really surprised you called me here Itachi." The purple haired women said. Kisame, Deidera and Hiden sat closer to my side of the table as far away from her as possible without it being obvious. Sipping soda threw a straw she silently waited for either of us to speak. Taking a deep breath I opened my mouth to talk, now I know what your thinking 'why are the guys so scared of her.' Simple answer because she's scary even to me. "We need you to dress up like Chica." I said. Her purple eyes widened, she ran her pierced tounge over her top lip then smiled, "Is this some kind of weird cosplay sex thing?" She asked while raising her slender eyebrow. I felt Deidera stiffen by my side and Kisame almost choked on his water. She busted out laughing then pointed at us.

"If you guys could see your faces right now." She giggled. Kisame started coughing and Deidera almost fainted, smirking at her I sighed before saying, "Missed you to. But no really I've put together a thing where I'm going to scare my brother and his friends tonight and to do that I need everyone."
"Ha playing pranks on Sasuke those were the days." I smiled at the memories, our group used to be bigger in high school. It used to be Kisame, Deidera, Hiden, Kakuzu, Konan, Sasori and Tobi. After we graduated we all kinda separated. Sasori moved away, Kisame works part time at the deep sea aquarium, Deidera creates what he calls art, Hiden does whatever, Konan is going to college, Kakuzu was caught stealing and is in jail and Tobi is doing what ever it is Tobi does. Wow now I feel like I'm boring the audience. "So? What time does the fun begin?"

Ino

I wiped my brow for the hundredth time. I sat outside my house on the front steps waiting for Sasuke but I couldn't seem to sit still. My mind continuously tracked back to the bottle of my fruity friends that was now hidden safely away in my nightstand but I felt like I needed them badly. Standing I started to pace, 'Calm down Ino, keep acting like this and they will defiantly know somethings up.' I screamed inside my head. Another ten horribly slow minutes later Sasuke pulled up. I wiped my brow once again and smiled at him, "Hey."
"Hey. You ok?" He asked while looking me up and down.

'Shit he knows!' I yelled inside my head, laughing nervously I handed him my purse. "Would you mind holding this really quick I forgot something?" I asked. He nodded so turning quickly I ran back into my house, straight up to my room and rummaged threw my nightstand. Once my hand closed around the all familiar bottle I poured a few of my fruity friends into the palm of my hand. But then instead of swallowing them right then and there, I just stared at them. Because of them I've gone from Ino Yamanaka to becoming a complete and total stranger but the worst part was that I was loving who I was becoming. Swallowing the four pills I put the bottle in my pocket then ran back down stairs to where Sasukes car sat waiting. Hopping in the passenger side I smiled at him while sweeping my bangs out from in front of my face, "Sorry about the wait. We can go now everything is going to be fine." Deep down tho I knew the words I had just spoke would come back to bite me in the ass.

Sasuke

At first Ino acted all jumpy and twitchy but then after taking a trip back into the house she came back out in a better mood. "So how has Sakura been. Hopefully not to mad at me. My phones been acting up recently so that's why I havnt been calling or texting." She said while staring out the window. I couldn't quite put my finger on it but something was up with her, "She's been ok. Just worried about you, everyone has been even Shikamaru." I said. She visibly flinched at the mention if Shikamaru's name, "Oh well. What's going on at your house tonight? You having a party?" She questioned, "No just something Itachi has planned." I muttered while watching the dark storm clouds roll overhead.

The rest of the drive was quiet that is until I pulled up in the driveway. Shikamaru and Kiba stood outside in the yard talking to Naruto. As Ino and I got out Neji came pulling up with Tenten and Hinata in his car. Once Shikamaru saw Ino he turned pale but thankfully Sakura saved everyone from a very awkward conversation. She came running up and hugged Ino, "Alright! All us ladies need to catch up so girls follow me!" She said, I knew that was code for find out what Ino's been up to and a way to keep her and Shikamaru away from each other. Once all the girls left us guys just stood awkwardly in a circle out on the lawn. "So umm...anyone wanna watch Supernatural season ten final?" I asked. Everyone nodded and smiled, ok now we have a plan.
