Deidara walked outside and grinned as the sun stretched across the rocks that surrounded the hideout. They'd have to move sooner or later. Just for safety measures. I'd have been nearly half an hour and the Akatsuki were suppose to meet here to give Deita, a test. And maybe have a few more face off. Either way, he just wanted to see how well Deita would fair against everyone. He'd already fought with Xantrex, but how would he do without restictions?

Deita had pretty much sat in his room for the half hour before his test. He wasn't too fond of the other akatsuki yet. That might change, and it might not. Who knows. Deita sheathed his sword with a slightly nervous sigh and slung it across his back. Taking one of his shoes off, he rubbed his foot against the rug, building up static that appeared visibly around one of his hands. Putting his shoe back on, he forced the static electricity to disappear from his hand. He'd have time to use it later. He didn't want to give it away. Walking out of his room, Deita walked down the hall and out in front of the akatsuki hideout where he saw Deidara waiting, but it seemed no other akatsuki had come out yet.

Deidara looked at Deita and then turned back to the rocks. "Aren't you peristant," he said. He then sighed. "If you pass, then there willl be a chance you will be able to survive this place. If not, then you'll possibly die." He said. He turned and faced Deita. "It's the truth." He then turned back. "And it'll determine, how intense your training will go."

Xantrex walked out of the hideout and leaned against one of the walls as he came outside, looking at Deidara and Deita. For this kid's sake, I hope he does well, he thought silently. "Hey kid," he said looking at Deita. "I hope you're ready for this." He gave a glance to Deidara. The kid'd just got there. Xan wondered if Deidara really thought that highly of the kid to test him against the stronger akatsuki on his first day. He sighed and shook his head slightly. This kid must be one powerful brat, he thought, looking at Deita.

Pheonix appeared outside a few feet away from the door. His expression was blank and his hat was tipped forward. In his hand he was flipping a card. It read joker. Occasionally it'd change to the picture of a joker as he looked up at Deidara to see if he had anything to say.

Daya had just gotten back from town when he saw Akatsuki gathering outside the Hideout. He gave a chuckle. Someone must have been getting beating to death by Deidara. Advancing on the groiup he saw that no one was getting beaten, much less tossed around. "What's all this about," he asked.

Xantrex looked at Daya as he walked up with an amused spark in his eye. Perhaps Deidara would make Deita fight Daya. Try saying that five times fast. Giving a small smirk, Xantrex glanced at Deita then to Daya. "Deidara's decided to test his new recruit. The others should be coming out soon enough."

Krissy walked out with a small smirk on her face. Perhaps she'd be the one to test the newbie. That would certainly be fun. She'd show this kid just how long he wouldn't be able to last in the akatsuki. She looked around and frowned at the lack of other akatsuki there. Deidara was always one to put on a show, so he probably wouldn't start until the others were there. She sighed and thought They'd better hurry up and get out here.

Itachi showed up next to Deidara. His eyes weren't focused on the leader though, they were on Krissy. He still remembered that day when she had made him show the side that had brought him to slaughter his entire clan. Turning his head slightly his eyes switched into Sharigan and he faced Deidara. "Who shall we test him against." He wasn't sure if Deita understood who he was, because he'd merely just stated his name inside, not his position.

Deidara looked at Itachi and grinned. "Didn't you once tell me not to let emtions play a role in my judgement," he said. A hint of something dangerous lay beneathe the surface as he spoke to Itachi. He then looked over the Akatsuki who'd showed up. "Bat and Krissy for sure," he said. "Daya as well, just to see how much the kid can withstand." He then looked to Deita and then back to Itachi. "Your choices?"

Deita stood next to Deidara, looking at the other akatsuki who were showing up, then to Deidara as he stated who he was going up against. He couldn't help but admit that he was glad that Krystalia was going to be one of them. He already didn't like her. But there was a guy who came up with red hair that he didn't recognize. Maybe that was the guy that Deidara had just mentioned, Daya. Deita looked to Itachi quietly as Deidara asked him who his choices were.

Krissy looked at Itachi as he walked out, but when she saw he was looking back, quickly turned her gaze away, looking almost nervous. A small grin came over her when she heard Deidara say that she was going to be one of the people to test the new kid. Awesome, she thought slyly.

Itachi's eyes narrowed as Deidara spoke to him. "Are you trying to say something," he asked, his voice just as dangerous. "If so, then you might want to speak up." He then turned to look at Deita. "Pheonix and Kadaj." He then turned back to Deidara. At this point in time he could care less for the newest member, what he was after was Deidara.

Kadaj opened the door to the Akatsuki Hideout and sighed. What was going on now. Looking at the Akatsuki who had gathered outside he went to stand next to Krissy. "What I miss?" He asked. Kadaj hadn't been there for the 'welcoming party' but when he noticed that nearly all the Akatsuki were out he decided to take a look outside. And here he was, standing outside with the rest of them, clueless.

Deidara clenched his fist as Itachi opposed him. This man would not live through this day if he continued. "I don't repeat myself," he said in a low voice. He then turned to his Akatsuki. "Daya, Krissy, Bat, Phoenix, and Kadaj, you all will be fighting Deita." He looked to the kid. "Who do you want to fight first?"

Itachi looked at Deidara. He could see that he was becoming angry. All the better to provoke him into a fight. "Maybe you should start," Itachi said. "Because as far as I'm concerned, your Akatsuki don't give a damn about what you say. It'd be in your best intrest to learn how to truely show your rule...before someone challenges you," he said. Itachi then turned away.

Deita swallowed lightly as Deidara named off all the people he'd be fighting. But then his expression turned from nervous to shocked as Itachi spoke up. Deita'd heard that Deidara had always run the akatsuki unopposed, and if that was true, what was happening here? He wondered if he should answer Deidara, say something to Itachi, or stay completely silent. It struck him that if he said something to Itachi, he could very well end up being killed. He could probably have been killed by any one of the akatsuki at this point, he wasn't very strong yet, afterall. Deita looked down quietly, his hand fumbling around nervously with a kunai in his pouch. If anything broke out, he'd be ready to help Deidara. Probably...

Zoey slowly went outside. She had no idea what was going on and the new kid was obviously the center of attention. "Hey there, I'm Zoey, but everyone calls me Zo for short," she said with a smile before going over to Kadaj. "What's up?" She asked.

Xan's eyes scanned the situation as it progressed. Deita was to fight quite a few people. And aside from that, Itachi was challenging Deidara's authority. Things wouldn't turn out good. If worst came to worst, someone would die today. The best they could hope for was that Itachi would be kicked out of the akatsuki, but Deidara wasn't soft enough to do just that. Xan kept his place against the wall of the hideout, staying in the shadows.

Pheonix hesitated to move when he heard the exchange of words between Itachi and Deidara. Why was Itachi pushing Deidara in the first place, had he missed something. Looking to the others he could tell they were in the dark about what was happening as well. It was too much of a risk to not proceed towards the two leaders and Deita, but it was far more risky to interfer with the two. He was trapped. Making a quick decision he proceeded with his head bowed and stopped a few feet away.

Deidara noticed that the surrounded Akatsuki were slowly becoming aware of the situation that was unfolding. Was this what that bastard Itachi had planned all along. Making him look weak infront of his subordinates. Deidara clenched his fist. He had to regain control and deal with Itachi later. He turned to the Akatsuki. "What are you waiting for, get a move on," he snapped.

(I'm lazy.)

Zeo and Bat exited the building at the same time. Zeo went to stand near the side of the Akatsuki wall and Bat went next to Krissy. As Itachi and Deidara had a short little exchange of words Bat looked at Deita and grinned. It looked like they'd be going head to head. Looking at Deidara as he lost his temper Bat walked up to Deita. "So, who's going to make you their victim first," he asked casually.

Deita looked at Deidara as he yelled for them to get a move on. He was glad that there wasn't going to be a fight between Deidara and Itachi. He then turned to look at Bat as he asked who was going to victimize Deita first. "I don't plan on being anyone's victim," he said stubbornly before looking around at his choices. There was Bat, Kadaj, Daya, Pheonix, and Krystalia. His eyes stopped on Krystalia. He really didn't like her. And if he was going to fight her, he wanted it to be at full power. Whether he could take her down or not, he'd at least inflict some kind of damage. "I want to fight Krystalia first," he said, his eyes still on Krissy. He wondered if this was the best move, but there was no turning back now.

Xantrex was only minorly shocked when Deidara decided not to take on Itachi. Anyone else would've never gotten away with something like that. He grinned as Deita chose Krissy as his first fight and gave a small chuckle. The kid had just chosen his own death. But then again... he thought, his grin fading slightly. Maybe that wasn't such a bad move, kid. You were gonna end up fighting her anyways, he thought, starting to think that the new recruit was smarter than he looked. Or maybe he'd only picked her because he didn't like her. Either way, maybe it wasn't the worst choice he could've made.

Deidara grinned at Deita choice. "Okay, let's start," he said. "You can do whatever you please, there are no rules, just don't kill one another." Deidara then backed off. "Begin." He stood a good distance away. This would be interesting to watch. A child of the Moon and Krissy, one of his top Akatsuki.
