AN:Hello~ i had wrote this story 'bout a year or two back and had published it on Quizillia, Well i've recently stumbled across it once more and decided to upload it on here. It's only the first chapter (seeing as i never bothered to continue the story)..Anyways it's been heavily revised and hopefully its a bit better than it was two years ago, let me know what you guys think ^.^' BTW:Naruto nor any of its amazing characters belong to me.
Hidan sat crossed-legged on the floor in the middle of the dim lit room. Head lowered, with his worn prayer-beads clutched tightly in hand, as his lips moved slowly in silent prayer. Suddenly a single, loud abrupt knock sounded on his door, breaking the silence of his ritual.
A slur of colorful swears were grumbled under his breath before sharply jerking the door open. Eyes so narrowed they were mearly thin slits of purple orbs. Expecting it to be his annoying money hungry, dumbass of a partner Kakuzu. Talking some meaningless Drabble. Instead he found the last person he'd expect on the other side, Uchiha Itachi.
"Eh? what do you want?" Hidan inquired sharply. Unperturbed in the least by the hostile greeting, the stoic man simply said "Taichou-Sama has called upon us" "Well Taichou-Sama can kiss my ass, I'm busy..." Hidan said in a flippant tone over his shoulder as he turned to close the door. But the action was halted. Turning back around only to discover the Uchiha's hand holding the door.
Hidan turned on him with the nastiest glare he could muster. "He wants to see us NOW" The Uchiha said meeting his gaze, still devoid of any emotion. Knowing that the stubborn Uchiha wasn't going to back down and would continue being a pain in the ass until he went to see what was needed of him Hidan slowly and deliberately exited the room.
When the leader would call these "meetings" To Hidan all that meant was "Hey, lets gather everyone so I can go on in an infinite tirade of money expenses this, ,catch the jinchuriki that" blah blahh la-di-fucking-blah, If he wanted to hear this much talking he'd have gotten married, at least he'd be getting screwed if that was the case.. And not in the bad way either.
As they started down the hallway, Itachi a few feet in front of him leading the way, with Hidan trudging behind at his own pace. "So any idea what's so urgent anyways?" Hidan said after a moment breaking the silence. "How should I know? Orders we're to simply retrieve you and report to Taichou-Sama" Itachi said without looking back.
"Retrieve me?" Hidan repeated, phrasing the word out across his tounge. "What the hell do I look like a damn dog?!" The jashinist grunted. Not responding to his question Itachi entered Pain's quarters. Turned away towards the window as if in deep thought, Pain finally faced men who stood in his doorway after a moment.
A puzzled expression crossed Hidan's features for a moment. He'd been expecting the other Akatsuki memebers to be present. But before he can question this observation Pain had jumped right to the point.
"I've called you here in order to assign you both to a mission" Pain explained before glancing towards Itachi than Hidan. When their were no inputs from either of the members who listened intently he continued.
"An outside source of the organization has given word of Ninja who hold a forbidden item in their possesion. I want you two to intercept the targets on there way back to the land of lighting. Your probly wondering why I called you both here without your respective partners. And the reason for that is because these are no normal Ninja."
"These targets are some of the most elite of vigorously trained Jonin Captins who hail from the land of lightning. And in there possession is a scroll, of a powerful forbidden jutsu which happen to be created by the doings of our previous member Orachimaru"
An inward cringe of disgust crawled through Itachi at the mention of that snake's name.
"This item can be of some use to us. And Itachi as you know, as a former Anbu captain how high of a rank that is and how lightly they cannot be taken. Your abilities and experience could be of use should battle occur." Itachi inclined his head before replying "Understood"
Pain than turned to Hidan. "And Hidan as you know Kakuzu is out of commission due to injury for a couple of days, Or else I'd have sent him along. But no matter, From what we've gathered on the fighting style of these targets, your weapon allows you to wield it from long range, mid-range to short range, This should accommodate well with Itachi's fighting style ensuring that it'll be difficult for the enemy to gain the upper hand. That and the fact that you cannot not be taken down by any normal means-..
"GEE boss..." Hidan said in a cheeky-tone cutting off Pain's next words. "Good to know that you only see me as a recyclable voodoo doll made to be slaughtered, only to come back again and again. Ya' know I'm into the whole pain equals pleasure thing, And I may be immortal but the whole impaling yourself to "death" part still hurts like holy hell, Don't even get me started on-...
"When do we leave?" Itachi said. His deep mono-tone voice cutting off Hidan's tirade as the swears and slurs increased in creativity as well as volume. He wanted to shut him up before the loquacious Jashin made Pain do something he'd probly regret.
"At sunset, your rendevous point should take about 3 days to reach." Pain concluded before giving them a dismissive nod. Both men giving him looks of understanding before leaving, Hidan still grumbling incoherently.
About an hour later prepared, Itachi exited his room. Not really ready for the mission that was about to ensue. He never was ready for any type of mission really, at least not any of this sort seeing as they all meant dispute. And if the enemy showed enough resistance that would mean taking lives. Something that he detested with a passion. As he made his way towards the entrance of the base another door opened behind him and out stepped his partner for this mission.
Hidan stopped for a moment, adjusting his Triple headed scythe so that it shined against the light, before touching the tip of one of the blades.
That one delicate placed touched managed to draw out a bead of blood on Hidan's index. With a seemingly satisfied grunt at the sharpness of the blade, he licked the blood off before making his way past Itachi. "Come on weasle-boy... Let's go bathe this beauty in our enemies' blood!" Hidan said over his shoulder with a curt laugh. What would become of his sanity from spending three days with this guy?
And though he was seemingly unperturbed on the outside, Itachi's inner musings were those of discontent. More to the fact that his temporary partner could go from zero to sixty in a matter of seconds, not to mention who's vulgar and erratic behavior spelled out trouble, And who clearly didn't know the meaning of the phrase 'Foot-In-Mouth', And finally The fact that his name had been used out of term... And frankly Itachi didn't know which one upset him most.
Well R&R i guess :D ..i think i have a good idea of which direction this story should go in, Just wondering if it's worth continuing though haha.
