Shikamaru saw the shadow of Pein striking Deidei across the face. That was enough for him to go off. In a swift move, he cast the shadow of his hands around Peins throat and proceeded to tighten his grip. "Back off." he growled. He looked to Deidei. "Get out of here!"

Deidei felt her eyes widen as she saw the Nara. He had followed her... why? Something in her struck and she shook her head. "You get out of here! He'll kill you!" she said grabbing a kunai as the other members back off. They wouldn't interfere. Pein growled and drew up his arm, bringing his elbow into contact with Shikamaru's ribs. Pulling away he rounded on the boy and reached for his throat, intent upon killing him... when something hit him. Deidei had lunged forward, the kunai now pressed into her ex bosses shoulder. "LEAVE HIM ALONE!" she shouted, pulling the weapon out and taking a step back. "HE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS! LEAVE HIM BE!" she continued, a tear gathered in her eye. She couldn't let him get hurt, or killed, this was her fault. She had been stupid enough to come here to seek Itachi's help... and she had to be the one to receive the consiquences, not him. "Shikamaru... go..." she whispered before being slammed against the wall, blood spattering the floor where Pein had been.

Shikamaru coughed harshly as the wind was knocked out of him. He managed to recover quickly, ignoring Deidei's requests for him to leave. "I came here to get you out of trouble! Now..." He rushed up behind Pein, delivering a roundhouse to the head in attempt to release Deidei. "you need to go before you get killed! I'll be fine."
he didnt know what was coming over him, but he was too deep to back out now. He was ready for anything the akatsuki would throw at him. then again, he had a secret weapon in case things got too hairy. A while back, he had stolen one of Ro's tealshards. If need be, he'd summon Jiharu, or warp.

Deidei pushed back against Pein, getting him off of her shortly before Shikamaru slammed into him. "Why are you trying to save me!?" she shouted at him, her leg coming up and connecting with Pein's head. The man was just in between the two of them as they fought, now too amused by them to really fight. It was a tad funny listening to them.

Shikamaru was trying to find a way around telling her just yet. He slipped up, but caught Pein again with his other leg. "Now's not the time to argue with me, ah! Go now!"
Really, trying to start an argument with him here of all places?? Now definitely wasn't the time, and he was NOT about to say it in front of all those people. The akatsuki especially.

Deidei rolled her eyes, crossing her arms over her chest. "I want to argue now though, un!" she said, a slight pout on her features as she stomped on Pein. Pein just lisened intently, with standing the blows just for the fact he was interested in this conversation. Itachi snorted. Deidei really was an interesting girl.

Shikamaru face-palmed. "you're just not gonna wait, ah?" he inquired. He couldn't say it here, though. so he tore the stolen shard from his pocket and activated what little chakra it had left, to warp him and Deidei to a different location. Conveniently, it was in an area just between the forest, and the downtown area. More convenient, just under a streetlight. There was an awkward silence as he stared at the ground, then back up at Deidei, looking like he wanted to say something.

Deidei crossed her arms over her chest. "Well, un? Why were you so adamant on saving me, un?" she said, not awkward at all. Her mind flashed a memory of the kiss from the club and she felt a blush tinge her cheeks. What the fuck? Pushing the memory aside she waited for him to speak.

Shikamaru sighed and rubbed the back of his neck. "Don't think of this as weird, it has nothing to do with what happened at the bar, but..." A flurry of emotions ran through his system. Red auras, pink auras, orange, gray. "I'm in love with you." he said finally, looking her in the eye. "and...I've been in love with you for a while now." 'give or take a few years' he added in thought.
He had hoped that Deidei wouldn't reject him, though she probably would, and it was stupid of him to admit such things. "...I'm sorry, I know you hate me and all, but I wanted to get that off of my chest."

Deidei felt a blush burst out on her face, it was hot. She didn't know what to think, her wide eyes stared at him silently, unreadable. "I..." She didn't know what to say... Taking a step forward she touched his face, before leaning in and kissing him softly. Pulling away she looked down, "I'm still wondering why the fuck I'm returning these feelings, un." she whispered before looking up at him cutely... and kissing him again.

Shikamaru was expecting Deidei to slap him or some kind of injury, but instead he was greeted with a pleasant kiss. He blushed visibly as Deidei pulled away. "Perhaps you are in love as well.." he said, only to have her kiss again. Unsure, he returned the kiss, hesitantly wrapping arms around her to pull her close. A flurry of aura surrounded the both of them before it finally settled on a flaming rose color.

Deidei pulled away after a moment, setting her head on his shoulder. "You asshole, un. I thought I said I wasn't going to fall for you, un." she whispered, her arms slipping around him and holding him close. Shrugging she looked up at him. "loser, making me fall in love, un." she shook her head. Her clothes were still damp.... God she was going to be sick.

Shikamaru smirked, letting out a light chuckle as he held her close. "I told you to take the damned shirt," he joked coyly, trying to change the subject of her little rant. He knew this was going to benefit the both of them, however. "You can still crash at my house you know." he advised, not wanting Deidei to get any sicker than she was now, already developing a cold from what he could tell.

Deidei turned her head just in time to sneeze. "Yeah yeah, come on, un." she said, her hand slipping into his as she pulled away, tugging him towards his house. She'd have to take him up on the offer apparently.

Shikamaru smiled as they walked home together. Finally, balance was set, but what was to become of the others? They'd just have to wait and see... -- Ro stood up and stretched, looking at the clock. "Ne...what time is it?" she asked no one in particular, and glanced at the clock. "Holy crap, midnight." Though it was late, she knew Gaara would have to go home eventually, though she was slightly disappointed that nothing exciting happened on her end. ah well, there was always tomorrow, right?
