It was a cold day as was per usual in a small town at the heart of Kirigakure. The brunette surveyed the sleepy little town while his white haired partner started to throw a fit about what he "could" have been doing if he wasn't there waiting for some "dumb" bounty. With a roll of his eyes he looked out from behind his hiding place and searched the people filled street. He ignored the cultist and who just seemed to become louder and louder. As he watched the street his target sauntered into view. The brunette turned to his partner only to find him continuing his rant. With which he ended, indefinitely, with a very loud.

"Go suck a dick, Kakuzu!" A smug smile was plastered on his face as a light snicker left his mouth. "Got nothing to say to that do ya, asshole!" Kakuzu shot him a blistering look in return, shutting him up for good. Kakuzu continued surveying the streets as his partner, Hidan sat near him, pouting.

"Keep an eye on the target." Kakuzu ordered. Whether Hidan would listen or not was up

in the air, at the very least he would have something to do while pouting. Kakuzu continued watching his bounty as it walked from store to store, weaving through the jumble of people on the busy street. Stalking his bounty like pray, he searched the street, barley noticing his partner's movements. With a sinister smile Hidan walked into the busy street. As he sought out the nearest person he grabbed their arm while pulling out his scythe and forced them into a maneuver with their hands behind their back and his beloved scythe dangerously close to slicing through their carotid artery.

The world spun and time stopped but the busy street continued moving. An ear-shattering screech came from the captured woman's throat and the bustling street came to a halt. Some people stopped and stared in horror. Others tried to scurry away without being noticed. One man in particular was staring Hidan down and yelling profanities. Kakuzu watched as the display continued. The man was either a complete idiot or had some brass balls yelling at a hot tempered idiot with a scythe.

While Hidan was busy yelling at the idiot, Kakuzu moved from his hiding spot swiftly and deftly while creating a new one on the roof of an Inn. Knowing that the Anbu would be here shortly. Swarming the area in an attempt to prevent anyone from getting hurt. Kakuzu watched everything play out as the Anbu filtered in. The arguing continued, curses and insults being slung around, threats lashing at pride and argument had reached it's peak. Seeing this as an opportunity the Anbu began their strike.

Kakuzu leaped from the top of the Inn stealthily. He took down several of the Anbu, making his way towards Hidan. Closing in on the last foot between himself and Hidan he grabbed the annoying civilian arguing with Hidan and deftly paced a kunai to his throat. Pressing the edge of the small blade into the mans throat, it sliced swiftly through the soft flesh. The blood came pouring out as soon as the blade left the warm cavern of flesh. He dropped the body allowing it to fall to the ground as it convulsed and the blood continued pouring out. Walking the last steps towards his inept partner he grabbed one of the Anbu who was hiding in a nearby bush. Dragging him to his feet he used his kunai to make his intentions known.

The captain of the Anbu shuttered, they had heard there was a hostage but he never would have dreamed it would have been this bad. Worse yet both perps. were in the bingo book. Once they had made their way to the square and almost captured the first guy, the second one came out of nowhere. He had killed their distraction, a harmless enough civilian, along with plenty of his men and they had another hostage. It was down to him and his newest member who was being held hostages. Today had gone from bad to worse. He would attempt to negotiate with the criminals meanwhile stalling and, waiting for backup to arrive. He place his hands up in the air, showing he surrendered and meant no harm.

"Shall we negotiate?"

At this meager attempt of negotiation Hidan scoffed. He had exactly what he wanted. The Anbu had nothing to offer him in return for his victims life. The only offer that would entice him was allowing him to use everyone in this town as a sacrifice to his lord Jashin. Of course for that he could just take their lives and use them as he pleased.

"Demands and terms?" Came the gruff voice of his partner. Hidan's head whipped around to face his plastered on his face.

"Why are you playing along with this? Anything we want we can take!" With a stern glare Kakuzu quickly shut Hidan up. He held the kunai to the victim's throat and reiterated.

"What are your demands and terms. Then I shall make my own." Silence hung in the air as everyone waited for the Anbu to answer.

As if chewing a hole through his lip the captain thought carefully about what would be reasonable demands. They would have to assure the safety of everyone and keep the criminals preoccupied until backup could reach the designated area.

"If you release the victims I can assure that you, and your partner can make it out of this village safely." Hoping that this would appease the pair the captain took a step closer. Whether they agreed to the terms or not he couldn't honestly let them just leave. These demands and terms were just to satiate the criminals and convince them to release the hostages. Once the hostages were free all the demands would be forgotten and the criminals captured.

"No." Came a gruff reply as Kakuzupushed his kunai dangerously close to the young Anbu's throat. A small sliver of blood began trickling down the boys throat and his whole body began to quiver with fear. If the captain thought so little of the criminals intellect then surely this boy would die in a short amount of time. A strong stench filled the air as the boy realized he would soon join his comrades. His bravery had let him down and in spite of everything it seemed as though even his dignity would be lost.

The captain looked around nervously as he noticed the small stream of blood coming from the boy's throat. Accompanying the blood was pungently smelling urine. As dark wet spots appeared to run down the boys pant legs. With a wince the captain continued on trying to persuade the criminals.

"If you let them both go I can give you whatever you'd like money, perhaps. Being absolved of your crimes? Name it and I'll do what I can." Desperation tinged his voice as his options were running out. Hidan broke out in a fit of laughter startling everyone except Kakuzu.

"He fucking pissed his pants! What kind of a pussy does that?!" Hidan continued with his fit of laughter. "Even the bitch hasn't done that yet!" A sinister smile plagued Hidan's face as the laughter began to dissipate. His three teared scythe gripped tightly in his hand. One fluid movement and the scythe sliced through bone and flesh as blood gushed into the air. A resounding plunk was heard as the woman's head hit the soft ground a look of surprise frozen on her features. "Off goes her fuckin' head! Still want to negotiate, Dick wad?"

The captain kept his face void of emotions as he watched the woman's head get sliced off. He just needed to stall for more time and somehow keep his cowardly recruit alive. The taller one seemed to be the smarter of the two so he would have to keep him occupied.

Something, or rather someone in the distance had peaked Kakuzu's interest. The new set of Anbu had arrived, it was time for this game to end. Kakuzu turned his attention to the captain and swiftly gutted his hostage. Throwing both the boy and his intestine at the captain. Retaliating the captain charge at Kakuzu intending to capture and wound him. Kakuzu turned to Hidan and punched him in the stomach, adequately incapacitating him. With a look of confusion Hidan fell to the ground limp and lifeless. Kakuzu turned to face the full power of the blow that had been launched at him. He watched the oncoming Anbu as he allowed himself to be overpowered and pushed to the ground. His face being shoved into the dirt. The prick of a needle signaled that he would be drugged with tranquilizer. His plan was coming together nicely. He would be thrown into Jail, find his prey and escape. A knowing smile on his face he relaxed on the hard soil and succumbed to the will of the tranquilizer.
