Return!

"I'M HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOME!"

Puppet spread her arms wide as she entered the hideout, Chee was already on her way out. She frowned at her, "You're leaving...?" "Yeah, with Saint, Yami, and Kakashi."

Her frown deepened. "Awwwwwwwww..."

"I'll get you something, how about that?"

Her face beamed, "YAY!" She wrapped her arms around Chee. "Good luck mommy!"

They both giggled, and everyone else came into view, most were sitting on the... seating units... some were sitting on the floor, she saw Kakuzu standing against the wall, skipped over to him, giving her back to everyone, and she heard gasps.

He opened an eye at her, "Can I help you?"

"Ummm... well... I have a little problem..." She turned her back to Kakuzu, "Yeah ummm... some people weren't too happy that I killed their leader... so ummm... they threw these things at me, I got most of the ones out of my back and legs, but the ones in my head and neck... I don't want to rip off the top of my head or anything."

There were several metal spikes, about 3 feet long, protruding from her head, and her shoulder and neck.

Kakuzu turned her around, "I'll drug you, and take them out later, when the drugs have time to settle." He took out some needles of some sort.

"The drugs won't have any effect on me... and I don't need surgery, I just need someone to rip them out." She protested.

He shook his head, "I don't want blood on the floor."

"I don't bleed, come on Stitches, just rip them out dammit!"

He gave her an odd look, "If this is the case, why didn't you ask someone else to do it?"

"You're the one who would've done it the cheapest way, would you please rip them out? They're starting to tickle my brain." She started tapping her foot in impatience.

"Fine with me." He turned her around, and ripped them out one at a time.

A shiver riveted down her spine, and turned back and smiled. "Thank you Stitches!"

She skipped off to the others, and continued to be a disruption.
