Hello my fellow innocent bystanders!! My dad is getting on my back about how I'm being lazy. Can't he see that I'm doing something academic?! Oh, and Lucy, I realllly hope you enjoy this chapter buddy!! Hehe, I hope you enjoy this chapter fellow innocent bystanders. :)

"Shut up!!" I whispered to my team.

"Excuse me?" Sam whispered back.

My team consisted of Kakuzu, Tobi, Itachi, Kisame, Sasuke, Madara, Pein, Konan, and Sam and me. Anyone outside of the Akatsuki was not needed for this dangerous mission that could end up killing us.

"Just go with it shrimp, Manga is in charge for this mission," Kisame nodded to Sam who sighed.

"Fine," Sam grumbled.

"Why am I involved again?" Kakuzu sighed.

"Because I share half of my profits with you and I help you count money?" I reminded him. He still looked ready to bail.

"Because everyone here is paying you five bucks each?" Madara also reminded him. Kakuzu looked a little less ready to bail.

"Because we're getting revenge on Hidan?" Sam reminded him. That seemed to hit home because Kakuzu nodded.

"So you know the plan?" I whispered to everyone and they nodded in return. Sam rolled her eyes at me.

"Of course we know the plan Manga, you've reminded us about fifty times," Sam retorted and I shrugged.

"I really want my revenge. So does Sasuke," I nodded towards Sasuke who hned.

"Manguke shouldn't have and never will happen," Sasuke's voice was icy and I grinned. Since Lucy JUST got over with that two-faced bomber I decided I would help her get a date like she oh so helped me.

"So operation Lucan is basically a revenge scheme?" Itachi asked and I nodded.

"Personally I think it's cute that Lucy tries to pair you up with someone," Konan shrugged and I glared at her.

"Not everyone needs a boyfriend!!" I whispered/hissed. Konan rolled her eyes and Sam snickered.

"Touchy subject? Sam mocked and I stuck my tongue out at her before I returned to looking out for Lucy and Hidan. So far everything was clear.

"Would now be a good time to tell Manga that Lucy is getting chocolate in town and Hidan is doing his sacrifices?" Pein asked Sam who glared at him.

"That was supposed to be a secret!" Sam hissed at Pein.

"This whole time I was trying to make sure Lucy and Hidan couldn't overhear me, and they weren't even here?!" I twitched and Sam smiled.

"Nope," Sam replied, popping the p.

"I hate you," I sighed.

"Love ya too," Sam snickered.

"You two are dumba**es," Sasuke snorted and we both glared at him.

"Excuse me?" we both hissed.

"I sai-"

"If you value your life you will shut up," Madara hissed at Sasuke as he hit him over the head. Sasuke glared at Madara but didn't say anything else. I smirked.

"So Manga, I've noticed something," Sam poked my shoulder and I raised an eyebrow.

"What?" I yawned. How early was it anyways? 9:00 a.m.?

"When Lucy shipped you and Sasuke, you had a shipping name," Sam pointed out and I winced.

"Please don't remind me," Sasuke and I both said at the same time.

"Anyways, and now we gave a shipping name to Lucy and Hidan. But what about me and Itachi?" Sam pouted.

"What?" Itachi raised an eyebrow and I stifled a laugh.

"Right, um.....here's one: Sachi. Does that sound good?" I asked.

"That is the most retarded-" Sasuke started to say before Sam threw her hands into the air, one hitting Sasuke.

"I LOVE IT!" Sam yelled and all of us winced from how loud that was.

"Sam hurt Tobi's ears," Tobi anime cried. 

"Shrimp hurt all of our ears," Kisame whined.

"Whiners," Sam stuck her tongue out.

"Is today act like a kid day?" Kakuzu sighed. I looked at him seriously.

"Yes," I said. Sam started laughing.

"Manga, you idiot! That's not until next week!" Sam snickered. I slapped my forehead.

"I forgot!"

"You two are so weird," Konan sighed.

"I'm pregnant," Sam said.

"What's your excuse?" I hit Kakuzu for asking that.

"I simply act like a kid sometimes," I shrugged.

"Getting back to the task at hand...when do we do this?" Itachi's voice cut in and I nodded.

"Itachi's right. Our plan will fully be in action at seven p.m," I announced and Sam rolled her eyes.

"No Manga, we were gonna think that it would be at five a.m.," Sam mocked.

"You're on a roll," I replied icily and Sam grinned.

"I know."

"Okay, so the groups are Itachi, Sam, me, and Konan for group A. Group B is Kakuzu, Kisame, Madara, Pein, and Tobi," I reminded them and they nodded.

"Good. Group A will target Lucy and group B will target Hidan. Any questions?" I asked and Tobi raised his hand.

"Yes Tobi?" I asked.

"Can Tobi go to the bathroom now?"

"Yes Tobi," I sighed and Tobi bolted for the bathroom.

"Okay, anymore questions that don't have to deal with using the toilet?"

"Yeah, what happens if we get caught?" Konan asked and I shrugged. I opened my mouth bt Sam stopped me.

"I got this one Manga. We run like h***," Sam nodded and everyone looked concerned.

"That's it?" Kisame asked and I nodded.

"Run for the nearest safe house. Which are as listed..."

*5:56 p.m.*

"Lucy! Come over here for a second!" Konan motioned Lucy over and she came.

"I'm kind of busy guys, I really need to make myself food" Lucy sighed and Konan nodded.

"That's the thing! We want to go out to eat! The others are going to meet us there! It's really fancy so dress nice" Konan explained and Lucy nodded.

"Okay, I'll go, what's the worst that can happen?" Lucy shrugged and walked away to go change.

"She has no idea," Konan snickered and Sam and I high fived each other while Itachi shook his head.

"I have no idea how you guys rope me into these things," Itachi sighed and Sam smiled at him.

"Because you love me and you are secretly scared of me," Sam grinned. Itachi didn't say anything else.

*7:00 p.m.*

"Where the heck are you guys?!" Lucy's voice was staticy through the speakerphone.

"Do you see the guys yet?" I whispered to Sam who was spying on the spot that Lucy was sitting at with binoculars.

"No," Sam whispered.

"We're running a little late Lucy. Don't worry, we'll get there soon," Konan lied and I gave her a thumbs up before turning my attention back to Sam.

"Anything?" I whispered.

"No....wait! I see Hidan coming! Yes!" Sam cheered and I shushed her.

"Not so loud," I reminded her and she nodded.

"Well hurry up! The only other person here is Hidan, and he's still outside!" Lucy hung up and I smiled.

"Excellent job Konan. You're such a good liar," I complimented her and she smiled.

"Thank you, I try," Konan grinned.

"Manga! They're having a deal on desserts! It says that all of the desserts are half off this week!" Sam pointed out and I pumped my fist into the air.

"Yeah! We'll have to go get desserts sometime," I suggested and Sam and Konan nodded.

"Girls are so weird," Itachi sighed. I had forgotten he was with us.

"They have dango," Sam told him.

".....We go tomorrow."

*7:38 p.m.*

Itachi was reading a book, Konan and Sam were on the lookout for people while they talked about what food was better than the other, and I was now on the task of spying on Lucy and Hidan. Hidan had actually not taken his shirt off for once. They were talking, but I think they were talking about Hidan's religion because he was really into the conversation.

"At least they're talking," I mumbled.

"Yeah, so I have a question. How the f*** did you find a tree this big?" Kisame twitched and Sam shrugged.

"I asked Zetsu where a good hiding spot was," Sam yawned.

"Something is happening!" I whisper-shouted to them. The others had met up with us a few minutes after Lucy had hung up on us.

There was a waiter who had spilled something on Lucy and Hidan was beating him up. I pointed it out to everyone and they started to laugh, cheer, and shake their heads.

"Tobi wonders how they can't hear us."

At that moment Sam's phone rang. She told us all to shut up before she pressed the talk button.

"Hello?"

"We can see you," Lucy's staticy voice cut through and I gulped. Hidan had stopped mid punch to turn around and glare at us along with Lucy.

"Do we run now?" Madara asked.

"Now would be an excellent time to run," I nodded and we took off like h*** was freezing over.

I stopped in the middle of my tracks and everyone looked at me like I was crazy.

"LUCAN FOREVER!!!" I yelled and I turned around and proceeded to run.
