Akatsuki's Possession ✗

part 30. the devil is here

It took a while to catch up to the Deidara as he had stormed off pretty far in such short time.

"Hey!" I called out once more before halting, panting for air. Running, my weakest sport yet.

Luckily, he had stopped in his tracks and stood there, perhaps anticipating what I wanted again.

We were on the first floor; the freshmen's. It was particularly empty considering how we were the only ones who had ditched class today.

"Why're you acting odd today?"

Silence, as expected.

"Deidara! Look at me while I'm talking to you!"
I moved to stand in front of him now, his glare directly upon me as I reflected the expression.

"What?"

"Um, I asked you something." I chewed on the inside of my cheek slowly while waiting for him to the explain himself.

"And I told you don't bother."

"Dammit, answer me properly!" I was annoyed at how he kept dodging the questions, so I didn't hold back in punching his arm. "What's wrong?"

"Oh, drama?" A voice interrupted.

"I don't feel like talking, especially to a slut."
Now at this statement, both me and Sasori - who'd just arrived at scene, where left bewildered.

"What.. what do you even mean?" I managed to pry further despite the pang of hurt in my chest.

"Oh, nothing much aside from the fact that you were all over Gaara last night and then getting heated with Uchiha boy up there." He shrugged, expression calm and tone cold and envious.

"Okay, first of all, Gaara is my friend. I've known him longer than I've known your uglyass. I don't know anything else about anybody. So watch your tongue."

"Deidara-"

Sasori was cut short as the blonde hastily turned around, moving swiftly to be only inches away from me, his face contorted with anger.

"You were in his lap, holding onto him. I saw you that night after I fucking kissed you with Sasuke, yeah. You're just like them other girls, into Uchiha's. To think I wasted my time on you."

"I heard my name." Ironically, Sasuke and his brother had shown up right beside Sasori, all standing to witness this pathetic fight.

"Deidara, you've gone too far." Sasori stepped forward, a hand pulling the blonde back.

"No, I got played because little raindrop here can't resist the urge to rub up on all the boys in the-"

He deserved that slap; that harsh, stinging slap.
After throwing chains of false accusations, it shouldn't have bothered me, but it did.

"I fucking hate you.." I held back the burning urge to spit in his face, so I turned and stormed off.

"I'll go after her. You keep the loser with you. Let's go, brother." The raven-haired male shot Deidara a glare before he left, the blonde standing still with shock and realization.

The entire school had shown up outside, some standing in formed lines while the others took this chance to chat away.

"Alright, everybody. We don't usually have a grand show like this but we've got extraordinary exceptions on our hand." Gai-Sensei announced as he stood on top of a flipped over bucket for height.

Sasuke and Itachi were beside me, somehow in their own way calming me down and telling me to forget everything about 'small penis boy.'

I'm pretty sure I saw Sakura's noticeable pink hair amongst the assembly, but paid no mind.

"He's here, my brother is finally here."

I turned to see a psychotically grinning, Crow. His eyes remained glued ahead of us.

"Please welcome our new prodigious students, sons of the founder of this college itself!" Gai cheerfully spoke out as he moved aside, two boys walking up.

"Indra and Ashura Ōtsutsuki!"

"Tsk, why's he here?"

"I dunno, but something doesn't feel right." Itachi replied back, his eyes narrowing slightly.

"And our last, but not least, new student! Please, come up!" Gai instructed, as a dark-haired boy shifted to stand next to the previous two.

My eyes widened in horror and unbearable shock, no way was this actually happening right now.

Itachi and Sasuke- both who were known for barely expressing much emotions, seemed just as visibly taken aback with disbelief as I was.

Wait, how do they know him? Why's he even here?!

The devil itself has shown up for me.
