(Just a little note: Last month no one did their missions so in order to make up for it you need to make a ninja mission for last month and this month. So it'd be best for atleast two ninja from each village to post in here. That will cover you guys. Also all Akatsuki except Krissy, Bat, Zeo, KJ, and Zo post here. Unless you want to.) (The Death Ninja have no need to post here because Satomi and Kazuya are already posting here.)

Deidara held Kymir under his arm as he moved towards the Akatsuki Hideout. The forest wasn't as lush as it used to be which meant less cover. Curse the winter. Moving quickly he glanced over his shoulder to make sure that Xantrex was following him. He wondered how far back that Kage and his little Chuunin was. Turning forward he kept moving occasionally dropping wads of clay. He's cause some problems on the way to distract them.

(That's a big little note.)

Satomi hurried after Deidara. He had kidnapped Kymir and that was unacceptable. Satomi was still distrubed by the explosion he'd nearly been killed by right before Deidara had snagged Kymir. He'd been heading to get Kymir unrestrained when a clone came up on him and exploded. Satomi shook the memory away and moved forward pulling his scythe of his back. He was going to cut a portal infront of Deidara, but just how far would he have to open the portal away. He needed precise caculations if he wanted to do this right. Satomi sighed. He'd never ripped a portal open while trying to catch a moving target. "Why does everything have to be so complex," he asked quietly. He then sliced on the air and went through a portal. He had no idea where he'd land, but hopefully it'd be somewhere near Deidara and Kymir. Seconds later he ripped open another portal and was in the sky above the Akatsuki Leader. "Perfect," he said as he headed towards the two of them. "Death's Scythe." Satomi's scythe blade turned from silver to black and the handle had red marks on it. Lifting his glasses slightly he pulled the blade all the way back and then lashed forward right above Deidara. "Dodge this," he said.

Xantrex ran behind Deidara, looking back every now and then to see how far behind the Death brat and his Kage were. He still had his sword out, propped on his back. Noticing a movement above them, Xantrex looked up only to see the brat with wings coming down with his scythe. How the hell did he catch up so fast? he thought as he took his sword off his back and blocked the scythe from hitting Deidara. He had his hands full with the kid as it was. Giving Satomi a small grin, Xantrex held his blade against Satomi's scythe and said "Heh, you're mine," before pushing the scythe back and aiming a kick at Satomi's side.

(Xan you're quite a pest. Lol)

Kymir struggled against Deidara. He could't get free though. "Help," he called in fear. He could turn but what would that do. Suprise Deidara, maybe, but he'd still get double teamed in the end. Where was Kazuya and the other guy he'd heard Kazuya call Satomi. Giving another squirm he saw a clash of blades. It was Satomi and Xantrex. Those two seemed to be keeping occupied, but who would occupy Deidara!

Kazuya'd managed to get out of the clay, but only from the help of something he'd rather have had stay asleep. He'd been stuck in the clay for a few minutes, enough time for Deidara and the other kid to get quite a bit ahead. Kazuya's paws pounded on the ground as he ran towards the akatsuki leader. He'd seen Satomi had got out of it not too long before he had. Within several minutes, he'd caught up to them, and Deidara in his sight, he ran at him, preparing to bite the arm that held Kymir.

Takashi had just gotten a report about a rescue mission. It seemed as though a child from the Death Valley had been kidnapped by the Akatsuki. And Deidara himself had shown up to do it. Takashi gave a low growl and followedhis former leader's scent. It was hard to believe that he had once been apart of the of the organization. Growling he moved forward pulling out a kunai as he caught up. He could spot to figured clashing blades in the distance and saw a black wolf snappng at Deidara's arm. Takashi moved faster, this seemed interesting.

(So many new things and so much freaking blue.)

Daya had gotten the call from Deidara when he was chillin in his bedroom. How nice it was to get out and do some killing. As he headed away from the Akatsuki Hideout he spotted Deidara and the others. Oh wow Xantrex had shrunk. Daya didn't stop to admire the sudden change because he was on a rampage to kill. As he spotted Kazuya trying to bite Deidara he grabbed him by the hind leg and pulled him back. "Hello Puppy," he said as he licked his lips. "You'd be a perfect warmup," he said as he kicked Kazuya.

(Nice pic.)

Zeo moved from the trees with swiftness. He had gotten the call as well. As Daya went for Kazuya he moved towards Takashi. "Water Style: Striking Water Serpent." Three water snakes slithered across the ground until they caught Takashi in a sticky film.

Pheonix came up as well. He held a stack of cards in his hand as he waited for someone to fight himself. It seemed as though no one was there, but someone was bound to come along eventually. Until then he'd protect Deidara alongside the other Akatsuki.

Hinta moved with speed as he hurried to catch up with Takashi. They were on a mission to retrieve Kymir from the Akatsuki, but what lay ahead of them was the question. As he got closer he saw Pheonix. The other ninja were busy with their own Akatsuki matches and yet Deidara was still moving. He didn't have time to play with Pheonix today. Quickening his speed he dashed past him and went for Deidara. Drawing a kunai he threw it at the Akatsuki Leader.

(Hey Daya!)

Takashi stepped into something slimy and fell face first. "What is this," he said as his hand ended up getting stuck as well. Trying to pull himself out it felt like super glue. "This is just great," he mumbled and then he saw Hinta go past. "Hin...." Sighing as Hinta didn't stop he looked at the snakes. "Wolves don't eat them, but it's a first time for everything," he said as he shifted and bit down into the water. Takashi knew within seconds that he shouldn've done that for his jaws snapped shut. He tried to open them and he pictured a person from one of those cartoons with several wads of gum in there mouth. How's ridiculous..... He though miserably. Struggling was pointless.

"Need some help?"Kenjiro asked,bending down in front of Takashi and holding out a hand.He'd been following them for quite some time and decided he'd show now.

Deidara saw that Kazuya was coming for his arm and pulled out some clay to shove down the mutt's mouth when he saw Daya grab Kazuya leg. "Good to see you," he sid as he turned and moved on. It seemed as though the villagers were sending help and even though this was a fact his Akatsuki were on their way as well. "Just as planned," he said giving a laugh and then he looked to Kymir. "Shut up," he said to the boy. He then spotted Hinta's kunai. Where they being outnumbered? Shaking his head slightly he threw the clay at the kunai causing an explosion. "No one can stop me!"

(Guess who!!!)

Mikey'd caught word of what was going on, and came as soon as she could. She knew with something like this, Deidara'd be there. As soon as she came, sure enough, there was Deidara, setting off an explosion. Before he had a chance to see her, she did a jutsu, causing two rock pillars to come out of the ground at opposite sides of him, and sped towards each other, trying to catch Deidara in between when they impacted. Mikey'd noticed that he'd been holding a kid, but Deidara'd be able to dodge this attack easily, but it would probably distract him long enough for her to get a decent hit.

Satomi hadn't expected Xantrex to block his attack and when he was kicked in the side he was caught off guard. Landing on the ground he stood up. "Why do you keep protecting him," he asked as he ran forward and jumped into the air. "Dark Wind Blades." He swung the sythe and a forceful wind came from the scythe.

Xantrex grinned as the kid asked him why he kept protecting Deidara. Was he really that slow? "Why do you keep attacking him?" he asked sarcastically. As the kid jumped into the air, and practically announced what he was about to do, Xantrex drove his blade into the ground, holding onto it as the wind almost blew him back. Damn, he thought angrily. That attack would leave him completely vulnerable, so he needed to recover his balance fast.

Saya walked with a lollie pop in her mouth to the location of the fight. Her ears twitched with excitement for she was going to be finally fighting something. Upon arrival she tossed the lollie pop to the ground and looked at Hinta who was going for Deidara. "Goody goody," she purred. She then pulled out a kunai and threw it at him. "Take this," she said.

Kinaga'd gotten word that the akatsuki'd kidnapped a kid from the Death. Unfortunately, he was short-handed on capable ninja, having most of them out on missions at the moment, so he had to go himself. He had to admit though, it beat doing paperwork. Running towards the forest, he wondered where his other ninja was. He'd assigned another ninja to go with him, but they were yet to show up. As he approached the battle, he's taken in everything quickly. There were already several akatsuki there, most of them taking on ninja from different villages. He noticed Deidara holding a small child, and a girl doing a jutsu that caused rocks to fly in to crush Deidara. How reckless, Kinaga thought. The child could've gotten hurt as well if Deidara was too distracted to move. He gave a quick glance around. There were too many people to try any sort of lightning moves, so he'd have to stick with the basics. He'd go for Deidara first. Taking out a kunai with an exploding tag on it, Kinaga threw it onto the side of one of the rock pillars. It would explode when the pillars collided, so even if Deidara did dodge, the kunai would blow up the rocks, sending shards in Deidara's immediate direction.

Deidara saw the rock pillars and gave a grin. "Little Mikey's join the fight I see," he said as he dropped Kymir on the ground and stepped on him. "Time for a little explosion," he said and just as he did the pillars exploded. "What..." Quickly he picked up Kymir and moved. A then threw a kunai to block the kunai that were coming at him. Deidara gave a small sigh. "You worthless twitts, if you don't get these two ninja then I'm going to end up usuing you as a sheild," he said to his Akastuki. He didn't care if they had their hands full. God gave them two so they could use them, one for each ninja!

Satomi looked at Xantrex. "I do it because he's nothing but trouble," he said right before Xantrex left himself to an open attack. The moment Xantrex was vulnerable Satomi knew he had one chance. "Death Scythe." Instantly the blade of the scythe turned black and red greek symbols were engraved into the handle. Satomi's entire outfit changed. He was now wearing a red jacket with a black sleeveless shirt and a pair of black pants. One shot, he told himself. Just one. In a blur he moved to Xantrex bringing the scythe across him. In less than a few second he was behind Xantrex facing the other way. Sighing he dropped to the ground his breaths coming in shallow gasps and sweat poruing down his face. He'd used one of his most powerfulest jutsu and he prayed that it had hit it's mark because if not he'd be as defenselss as ever.

Xantrex rolled his eyes at Satomi's answer. That was rhetorical, idiot, he thought before he looked up to see the kid coming down with his scythe. His eyes widened and in only a moment, Xantrex saw the kid in front of him, then he was gone. The next half second, his chest was searing with pain as a large slash appeared across it. Dropping his sword, he fell down to a knee, holding his chest. There was no chance he'd be able to reverse something this severe, and in this much pain, he wasn't able to think straight either. Looking behind him to see where that damn brat was, he noticed that the kid was on the ground. The technique'd drained him. Well, if he couldn't heal the wound, the least he could do was make it less severe. Taking his hand off his chest, Xantrex started a jutsu, then put his hand back to his chest. Only some of the blood receded, but he'd only been able to reverse time enough to heal the wound partially, despite the quickness of the attack. Looking back at the kid, Xantrex picked up his sword and placed it on his back. At least he could move now. Starting a jutsu, Xantrex's shadow headed towards Satomi with the intent to bind him to the ground. Stay down dammit, he thought angrily. Looking at Deidara, he noticed two more people were on him. Sighing angrily, Xantrex started a jutsu and threw shurikens into the shadow of a tree, causing them to come out of a shadow of a tree next to Kinaga.

Satomi felt a chill run down his spine. Pure fear filled him when he noticed Xantrex coming towards him. There's no way, how did I miss? Satomi replayed the attack in his mind. Didn't he hit his mark or did his eyes fool him? Swallowing he tried to rise but felt himself stop. "What is this?" He couldn't move. Now he really was about to die. Trying for a hand sign he failed. It was useless, he couldn't get out. Was this really the end?

Bell rushed to the battle scene. Her mind racing at the thought of a child being kidnapped by the Akatsuki. What was the possible meaning of this. What could the Akastuki gain from kidnapping a child? When she was at the battle she saw Satomi and Xantrex. It looked as if the Death Ninja needed help. Going towards him she threw a kunai at Xantrex and then jumped into the air and pulled out a scroll. "Four Style Ninjutsu!" She grabbed the scroll and called out the elements. "Water, Fire, Wind, Earth." Each came with a random jutsu towards Xantrex.

Gabe held a kunai and paper bomb in hand as he headed for the battle feild. Ester had given him his report as he'd come to make his report on his mission, but now he was at it again. He was dead tired, but he couldn't deny the request. There were barely any ninja in the Magma and they could barely spare him and Rumiko, but it would benefit later in the time of need when they needed help. When he was in view he noticed a kunai going to Kinaga from the shadows. "Not this time," he said as he threw the kunai he'd drawn earlier. It canceled out the other kunai and he immediatly went for Deidara. Pulling out another kunai to stop him.

Xantrex's felt his jutsu take hold of the brat ninja, and just after he'd thrown the kunai's at the Storm Kage, he noticed a new person targeting him as well. This day just was not going good for him. Taking out a scroll quickly, he swiped some blood off his chest onto the scroll then made a handsign and held the scroll out in front of him. "Shadow's barrier," he said agitatedly. He hadn't wanted to use this during the fight, as these were exceptionally hard to make. Where Xantrex's shadow was on the ground, it was replaced by a dark circular shadow. As the jutsu's headed towards Xantrex, they stopped in front of the scroll, deflected, and Xantrex gave a small flinch as he saw some light shining through the shadow shield on the ground. Only a second later, the shield shattered and the scroll disintegrated into ash. Damn, he thought angrily as his jutsu on the Death brat also broke. He couldn't keep this up forever, Deidara needed to get out of there with the kid, and quick. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw another teenage brat going for Deidara. "You've gotta be kidding me," he said, pulling a few shuriken with smoke bombs on them and throwing them at the kid and a few at the ground, causing an immediate cloud of smoke to cover the area. In the commotion, Xantrex attempted to punch Bell.
