Eternal Flame - Art Is An Explosion!

Konan Nē-San

"What. Is. This. Mess." Asked a very angry Kanako. Well, it was more of a statement, but whatever.

A few minutes earlier, Kanako had just walked into the kitchen, about to make breakfast for everyone, when she saw that the whole kitchen was covered in batter, ash, and various other ingredients that had been burned by who knows what.

She turned around to face two very sheepish Akasuki members, Deidara and Tobi. Apparently, they had been trying to make cookies, and something messed up.

"It's alright, Kanako. I was planning on going to the closest village for some things today anyway." Said a voice from the lounge. Kanako looked past the two male Akasuki members to see Konan in a plain black cloak, her Akasuki one nowhere to be seen.

"Thanks, Konan!" The happy girl said, smiling, "But would you mind if I came along too?"

"That's fine!" Said the woman, "Go get changed into traveler clothes, than we'll be on our way. We might even be able to get you some more clothes!"

"Cool, I'll be there in a sec!" Replied the now seemingly happy girl. That is until she turned to face the troublemakers, "I'm going out now," she said sweetly, "But when I come back...You boys are in big trouble, Deidara, Tobi."

The once again happy girl skipped to her room, ignoring the scared males who were staring at her receding figure.

"Kanako-Chan is scary..." Said Tobi.

"Yeah. Really scary, un..."

A few minutes later...

"Alright Konan! I'm ready to go!" Shouted a very excited girl, bouncing with excitement.

"Alright, lets go!" Said Konan, running out of the base with Kanako right behind her.

In the village:

The Akasuki had recently moved bases, as to stay undetected, and currently they were staying in the base near Sunagakure.

Konan handed Kanako some money and said, "Alright, I'm going to get some things. Spend this money on whatever you want, get some food, meet some people, but don't get too close and do not tell them who you are. Okay?"

"Got it!" Said the girl, not being able to wait any longer.

"Alright, go have fun." Said the woman, waving her off, only to find that she had already gone.

'Just stay careful.' Thought the woman, walking off to find the materials she needed to surprise the girl.

With Kanako:

'Hmm...What should I go to first?' Thought the girl, looking at all the shops.

'I say go to the kimono shop!' Said the demon.

'Alrighty than!' Thought the girl, running to her destination.

After an almost long day of shopping:

"Alright," the girl mumbled to herself, "There's only one place left to go.

The girl walked over to the shop, and went inside, looking for the things she needed. After a while she had everything.

•A bunch of poison ingredients.
•A lot of wood for doll/puppet making.
•And a scroll to hold it all in for easy carrying.

She went to the front of the store and paid for all her items, before sealing it in a scroll and putting it in her pack.

She then left the store and headed to the front of the village, where Konan would be waiting.

As she was walking, she sensed three unfamiliar chakras behind her, trying to be stealthy.
