Digging wasn't the hard part. The hard part was listening to the complaining man next to him.
"Man, why did Jashin-Sama make me wait so long?"
The man shrugged and kept walking.
"Where are we going?"
The man sighed and pulled up the collar of his trench coat.
"We're going to the Waterfall village. Rumor has it that's where you come from."
"Jashin, the people there are pains." Hidan stretched and cracked his bones, which hadn't been used in a few years.
Hidan stopped walking and sat down. He and Jashin were in the middle of a conversation in his head, and it was too annoying to walk and talk to Jashin at the same time. Hidan nodded his head a few times as Jashin gave him his orders and then smirked once he realized how much fun he was going to have.
"Heh, maybe it wouldn't be so bad to go there after all." He stood back up again, and the two men talked abou t what they would do when they arrived.

The pink haired Kunoici stood where the ceremony had taken place many hours ago. Her head hung low and silent tears fell from her puffy red eyes. She hadn't even noticed the blonde-haired boy that stood behind her. Right now, it was as if she were the only one in the world - no one else existed.
She stood near one man's picture - a man she couldn't believe was never coming back. She couldn't believe she would never see him again.
"Lady Hokage, we could not retrieve Kakashi Hatake's body."
Sakura's mentor nodded and dismissed the ANBU. She looked to Sakura and Naruto, her honey-colored eyes deeply saddened.
"I'm sorry," she said.
To hear her sensei was no longer alive had been the hardest moment of the whole ordeal for Sakura. Kakashi had been their team leader since they were twelve. He had been their sensei. She had almost expected him to come and say something stupid and hardly believable like, "Hey guys, sorry to worry you I was just lost on the path of life." But that wouldn't be happening, not this time. This time he was gone. This time he wasn't coming back. She would never see him or any of the others who had died again. They where all gone now.
The battle had been long and difficult, but they had won, she should be happy about that. But so much was gone now. The village was being rebuilt from the burnt soil. No matter how much she told herself it would get better now that the Akatuski was, gone, she couldn't be happy.
The rain fell as if the sky was crying. It reminded Sakura, reminding her of the Third Hokage's funeral, only it was harder this time. The rain wasn't forgiving, it was cold and it just kept falling harder.
In spite of herself, Sakura suddenly felt warmth come over her. She brought her swollen red eyes to meet a pair of saddened blue ones.
"Come on Sakura-chan, you're going to get sick if you stay out here any longer," said Naruto, forcing a smile.
She nodded at him as he placed his jacket over her shoulders. He slowly led her away from the memorial.
