"Come on Hidan, there's no way she could be here." Kakazu said. Hidan and Kakazu were walking through a small village looking for someone that they didn't even know.

"Shut the hell up, Pein said that I'll know her the moment I see her. And the only girl I know would hang out in a place as unpopulated as this." Hidan responded.

"And who would that be."

"My sister and fellow reaper." He mumbled.

"You have a sister?" Kakazu asked.

Before Hidan could respond, he saw a figure shoot up in the sky carrying a scythe.

"There she is." he cried and went after her. They chased her past the village and beyond an empty field of grass. They traveled through a vast canyon and on to another plain of grass that stretched on to a forest. Hidan looked up at the bright blue sky, and saw her dark wings glistening in the sunlight.

He threw a kunai in the air, but she was too high for it to reach her.

They continued to follow her through the long miles of the field towards the forest.

They caught up to her in a small meadow in the forest

"Brother, why are you following me?" She asked, licking fresh blood from her scythe.

"Hehehe, well now Dark, you were aware this whole time." He sneered. Suddenly she was right in his face; scythe behind his neck pulling him closer till their noses touched and her black angelic wings were spread out.

"Do you think me a fool, brother?" She asked, slicing his neck open.

"Well the last time you and I were near each other you were such a little weakling."

She pushed the scythe farther into his neck; blood pouring freely from the new wound. He winced a little causing more blood to flow.

"Let me make a guess. Your little leader told you to come and find me and make me join your petty little organization."

"You guess correctly." He grumbled.

"Well sorry to disappoint you, but I only serve lord Jashin." A look came across her face, and just as suddenly as it appeared it vanished replaced by her cold hearted glare. "I have better things to do, then listen to a worn out old fool."

Before they could protest she vanished.

Yamino Mitsukai

I flew up into the air leaving Hidan and his friend behind. So what if I didn't want to join their stupid organization I was aware of everything that they did. I knew all the rules. I even knew that anyone who refused would be killed.

So of course I knew that Hidan wouldn't falter; that and he's really stubborn.

I could hear Hidan and his weirdo friend's pursuit underneath me.

Morons they don't even know I'm in the air, I thought and snickered.

I flew up higher and headed to the small cave that was embedded in a nearby cliff. Lately I've been using that as my refuge for the past few months, coming out only to do sacrifices; which I've been doing more frequently.

I had built a small fire pit for warmth during the cold nights and I had "found" a small mat that I could sleep on.

I threw a paper flare in the fresh logs and deactivated it just as the wood set aflame. I spread out the mat and let my wings vanish and lay down. I looked at the high ceiling of the cave. Night struck very quickly and I was soon fast asleep.

The next morning I woke up to voices outside the mouth of the cave.

"Where the hell is she?" My heart hammered in my chest as I heard Hidan's voice.

I shot up and spread out my wings.

"So I see you aren't going to give up." I hissed.

"So you are here," Hidan said and stepped into the cave. "You know me; I don't give up to easily." He grinned.

"Sadly, I do." I mumbled.

He chuckled.

"So have you made up your mind? I'm sure leader would be pleased to have your skills in the organization."

"Who is your leader?" I questioned slightly relaxing my fighting stance.

"Heh… his name is Pein." His friend said, and Hidan narrowed his eyes. Pein, somehow that name sounded strangely.

"That's interesting…" I trailed off, thinking. "Perhaps I will." I relaxed my arms still planning.

"I thought you'd put up a better fight..." Hidan mumbled.

He stepped outside the cave and I followed, stretching my wings for the long flight.

"Are you ready yet?" He asked, impatient as usual.

I turned to him a sly smile playing at the corner of my mouth.

"Only if you're ready to catch me," without further warning I shot up into the air and flew off.

"Damn it Yamino Mitsukai!" He shouted from the ground.

"Have fun, brother" I laughed at him.

Hidan

"Fucking bitch." I growled. "I should of fucking known she would do something like this. Shit. Come on lets go find her ass." I said to Kakazu. He didn't say anything as he went off in the distance where Dark had flown. I headed after him, and we both started our search over.

"You've got to be fucking kidding me."I mumbled. "It's been a fucking week and we haven't spotted her," I growled.

"Maybe it's better that we don't bring her back; she could cause a lot of trouble." Kakazu said

"Might as well get back to the hideout and tell leader she got away then." I said

Yamino Mitsukai

A week ago….

"So you came here of your own accord?" Pein asked me.

I nodded smiling at him.

"And Hidan and Kakazu have no idea you're here?"

I grinned. "No." I giggled.

He sighed.

"Well they'll have to come back eventually." He grumbled.

Hidan

Present time

I came through the doors of Pein's office exasperatedly.

My jaw dropped to the ground when I saw Dark, sitting on his desk swinging her legs and Pein with an annoyed look on his face.

"Brother!" She shouted and jumped up on me.

"What the hell?" I yelled.

She slapped me.

"Don't yell in my ear, asshole!" She shouted.

"I'm the asshole! Why the hell are you here? How did you get here any way?"

She laughed.

"I know more than you think."

"She's been here for a week. Where have you been?" Pein asked.

The moment he spoke, Dark went right behind him and placed her hands on the back of his chair; which just made me hate him even more.

"We've been looking for her scrawny ass," I said, and glared at her.

"Don't be mean because I changed my mind." She said sweetly.

I growled at her.

She stuck her tongue out at me.

"Why you little-"

"That's quite enough." Pein interrupted.

"Whatever, I'm outta here." I mumbled and walked out.

Yamino Mitsukai

"That was fun," I smiled at Pein.

"Yeah, real fun." he muttered.

He rubbed his temples.

"Aww do you got a headache?" I asked

"Why wouldn't I have a headache?"

I laughed a little.

"I don't like you standing behind me."

I laughed again and sat back down at his desk.

"Do you know what I like?" I asked.

"What?" He grumbled.

"Power. I love power. I always have been attracted to power. I love a good fight against a man with the sense of power. And you…" I trailed.

He looked at me.

"What?"

"Well you have this strong sense of power. Being in your very presence makes me want to rip the flesh from your body, and guzzle down your blood as if it were soup. That's how I felt when I first met you and your friends as a child." I stood up straight and headed for the door.

"Where do you think you're going?" He asked standing up.

"Well as I recall from our earlier conversation, you wanted me to leave you alone." I raised my eyebrows at him, giving him an innocent look.

He walked towards me and shut the door just as I opened it a crack.

"Not now I don't, I have questions I want to ask you." He glared at me. I laughed.

"Oh so now you're interested? Sorry but that's enough info for one day. If you want you can write down your questions and ask me tomorrow." I smiled at him.

He grabbed my wrist and twisted my arm behind me.

"You will answer me." He growled.

I leaned up against him.

"What do you want to know?"

"How did I meet you?"

"Let me think back on that." I murmured.

"Are you going to tell me?" He asked.

"Maybe some other time." He sighed and let me go.

"What you're not going to pry the answer from me?" I asked. He looked at me a tired look in his eyes.

"You're being stubborn. There's no use in trying to pry the answers from you." he sat back at his desk. My lower lip struck out, and a disappointed look came across my face.

"Where's the fun in giving up." he rubbed his temples.

"I'm not giving up, I'm simply waiting," he retorted.

I turned my head and made an angry humph before striding out of the room and grabbing my scythe that was by the door.

Hidan

I was sitting outside cleaning my scythe when Dark stormed out, fuming and growling.

"What the hell's wrong with you?" I asked. She glanced at me, and then glared.

"None of your damned business." she grumbled before taking to the air.

"Jeez, must be the time of the month…" I mumbled before standing up and heading after her.
