Deidara simply hopped off the clay bird and commanded it to hover around and scout the area, he pulled off his straw hat as his long blonde hair flapped with the wind. He took a quick glance at Kenshin before turning his gaze to Pein.

Hmm, what next, un?

Tobi was wondering around the area, waiting for the other Akatsuki members. Tobi was staring at his Akatsuki ring while he was walking and admiring it. Tobi was too busy staring at it that he didn't notice where he was walking and bumped onto Deidara where he fell on the ground, landing on his bottom.

Oops! Sorry, Senpai!

Deidara stepped forward and whipped around to see who bumped at him, his upper lip twitched as a low, dangerous snarl ripped out of his lungs once he noticed it was Tobi, his eyes flared and growled from his throat.

Tobi, un..

Tobi waved uncontrollably like an idiot, behind his mask was a huge smile. Tobi jumped up and dusted himself, poking Deidara randomly

Deidara-Senpai. You're good to poke!

Deidara took hold of Tobi's finger and glared murderously at him with his one sole blue eye, he shifted his gaze to Pein and cleared his throat.

Excuse me, un.. I'm going to take Tobi elsewhere while you and Kenshin speak, hmm.. is that okay with you, Leader?

No, I need Tobi to be here. HE is Kenshin's cahllenge. Pein looked at Deidara who could've sworn that a hint of enjoyment could be see on Pein's face

Tobi titled his head in confusion. Unable to understand what's happening so he held out his hand to Deidara to show him his ring

See Deidara-Senpai! I got an Akatsuki ring!

Deidara let go of Tobi's finger and spat on the ground, stepping back from Tobi to make distance, taking a deep breath to keep his composure.

Fine, hmm..

Tobi flailed his arms, wondering what was happening. He took a step forward towards Deidara and poked Deidara's cheek

Senpai! What's happening!?

Tobi, stop poking your senior - said Pein calmly - Deidara... If you don't want to stay here and keep getting insulted, I suggest you continue your search for Jinchuuriki

Deidara swallowed down a wad in his throat and nodded. Gesturing for the clay bird to come back down by waving his hand just a tad.

Alright, hm. I'm heading to Sunagakure, un... Capture the Kazekage, and come back with him.

Once the clay bird was down, Deidara hopped on and the bird flapped it's wings hard enough to take off the ground, Deidara waved goodbye and headed to Suna.

And Tobi.. I have a task for you too. This shinobi - Pein points at Kenshin may join our organization. I want you to test his fighting skill by fighting him, Tobi

Kenshin sighs, seeing his opponent is Tobi, a silly dolt.
Do I really have to fight him?
Kenshin asked as he takes out a kunai.

Tobi sat on the ground indian style. He noticed a pink flower and started poking it. Tobi took the flower and got up, walking towards Pein

Look Pein-Senpai! I got you a flower~

Tobi handed the flower to Pein

Kenshin sighs, realizing Tobi is his next challenge, Kenshin simply gives a punch to Tobi's masked face, cracking the mask.
Do me a favour and don't waste my time, I'd prefer it if you just fall down now.
