Kurai sits around the Akatsuki lair with the rest of the organization, playing a sad tune on her guitar. How she missed Deidara... she looked down at the ring she had taken from the reckege. However this suvived, she didn;t know, but she really missed him. At least, we are together... in my hands. She gave a sad smile, and kept playing. Her and him were both misunderstood artists, and she was now wearing his ring. They were truly conected by their hand... well, hers, at least.
"Ne, Kurai, you OK?" Zetsu ask, breaking the music and the silence. She looked up at him from her guitar and gave him a fake smile. She told him, lying, that she was fine, and went back to her guitar. He knew she wasn't, though. He knew that she wanted Deidara back, and she was dying to know if Tobi was OK. If he was dead, one himself and her mother, Kai would like her in this damned organization. She couldn't have that. She stood up, telling the other members that she was going into her room, and walked away, leaving her guitar behind.
If Zetsu-sama knew, she thought, he would worry. I can't let him know. She walked into her room, and didn't leave until the night came over the depressed cave.

"Kurai-chan!" A muffled voice sounded from behind the door. "Kurai, c'mon, we're gonna play a game!" She opened the door to find her mother, Kai, standing outside her door. She grabbed the child's wrist and pulled her to the sitting room, where the rest of the group sat around a table with sake. "Join us!"
"I can drink? I'm only 13...," Kurai sadi, looking at the bottle of sake that was pushed into her hand as she sat down. Kai told her that it was fine, and that they were playing Never Have I Ever, and told the girl to join. "Hell, why not?" And the game began.

Hours past and the game was going. Most of the members were smashed, save for Pein, Kurai, Kai, and Leader. Kurai was almost smashed, Pein and Kai weren't anywhere near tipsy, and Leader was almost sluring. Kurai's head rolled onto the table, and she was out like a light.
"She needed to get smashed," Pein stated. "She felt terrible about Deidara. She really needed to forget."
"You're right," Kai agreed. "She's young, but she's still gonna mourn him."
"Yeah...," Leader looked down at his bottle of sake, his strange eyes lidded and glazed. "poor kid." Kai suggested to take the smashed girl to her room, and before she left the room, left a pail under her by the bed just in case she puked.

Kurai mourned for Deidara for a long time, but she kept telling herself that he wouldn't want them to be sad that he died, but happy that he lived. And that's what she did.
