He sighed, and stared up at the sky. The clouds floated by. He frowned, jealous of them. How they just float along, not a care in the world. When they're mad, all they have to do is rain, and then continue to float around. Unlike him, who had to deal with all sorts of things that he wished would just disappear. He wished he could just float around in the air forever.

"Hidan! Hurry up!" Hidan frowned, his antagonist yelling at him from quite a ways away. Had he really stood here that long? Or had that bastard just hurried up to get away from him? Hidan sighed again, for the billionth time today. He jumped down from the rocky ledge, and landed gracefully on the ground, then quickly followed his partner. He kicked a stray stone lazily, and watched it fall off of the edge of the cliff they were standing on.

They were somewhere in demon country, if he remembered right. They had climbed a precariously steep cliff, only to be met with a dozen cliffs, and edges, and stuff, on mountains that seemed to float in the air. He sighed. Again. Demon Country always freaked him out a little bit.

Hidan kicked another stone, and watched it plummet the hundreds of yards to the hard ground.

"Hidan!" He looked up and frowned, sticking his tongue out at him. Hidan grumbled a bit, but obliged, continuing to walk behind Kakuzu.

"Oof!" HIdan smacked into Kakuzu's back, and sent him stumbling forward. Kakuzu went downwards, then jumped back, and almost crushed Hidan.

"Oi! Kakuzu! What the hell, man?" Hidan yelled, sitting on the ground from the push he'd received from the hundred and thirty five pound Kakuzu basically landing on him, obviously agitated.

"ARE you trying to kill me?"

"What? No! You're the one who stopped all of a sudden like that!"

"Hey, stupid! Look for yourself!" Kakuzu pointed to behind himself.

Hidan frowned, but went over, cautiously, to look. In front of him stood a cliff, the next possible walking route about 15 feet away. He paled slightly.

"Oh."

"Stupid."

"Hey!" Hidan pouted, sulking, as Kakuzu decided how he wanted to get across, since there were several options at his disposal.

He chose to jump. So, Kakuzu, being the person he was, backed up, and jumped across with ease. He then stood, cockily, waiting for Hidan.

Hidan jaw dropped.

"What?" Kakuzu asked. "Jump across."

Silence.

"Hidan, I said, 'jump across.'"

Again, silence.

"Oh, for God's sake, what is it now?!"

"Well, uh, ya'see," Hidan started, "remember when we were battling a while ago?"

"Yeah, get to the point."

"I kinda twisted my ankle, and it's hard to walk, ya'know, and I kinda, um,"

"Get to the damn point!" Kakuzu interrupted impatiently.

"Okay, okay, jeez. It's been dislocated for a while now, and I can't jump that far right now." Hidan looked at the ground in embarrassment.

"And you're just now telling me that? Why didn't you tell me earlier so I could fix it?!"

Hidan shrugged. "Embarrassed, I guess."

Kakuzu sighed, before jumping back across the gap, landing in front of Hidan. "Sit down and give me you're ankle."

Hidan obeyed cautiously, sitting on the ground, and undoing his sandal. Kakuzu sat down next to him, gently touching the swollen ankle.

"You idiot! It's healed that way!"

Hidan's eyes widened. "So what happens now?"

"I re-brake it."

"What, what! No! You are NOT re-braking my ankle dude, no, no way, no way in hell!"

"Shut up and stop being such a pansy! On three, alright?"

"What, NO!"

"One, two,-"

CRACK!

"AAAAHHHH-OOWW! What the fuck?! You completely skipped three? What happened to three, Jashin-damnit!"

"C'mon, get up. NOW."

Hidan made a what-are-you-a-retard face. "Dude, I already told you, I can't make that jump!"

Kakuzu sighed. "Shut up. Who said you were going to make the jump anyways. All I told you to do was to stand up. Now do it."

Hidan frowned, but stood up anyway, being cautious of his injured ankle. "Alright jump on, but DO NOT let go, understood?" Kakuzu turned around, waiting for Hidan to jump on his back. Hidan shrugged, actually surprised at the gesture, and jumped on.

With one bound, they were on the other side.

"Hidan."

"Yeah?"

"You can get off now."

Hidan blushed. "Oh, yeah, ha, right…thanks."
