Chapter 2

Violet eyes stared into plain brown eyes as Amaye shifted to stand up properly. There was no way in hell this was Hidan…

"Oi, who are you? Don't you know what trouble is, bitch?" the man who was supposedly Hidan asked.

"S-sorry…I didn't mean to do anything! I-I mean… I'm supposed to be an angel who's watching over you. You know, as in guardian angel? Yeah…" there was a pregnant silence until Kakuzu, who had appeared a few minutes before, broke it.

" Hidan, that is an angel, meaning she died. Only shinobi can see her. What is your name, bitch? Or do you prefer us calling you that?" he mumbled.

"I-I'm Amaye,"came the nervous reply.

"What was that? Amaye? That sounds really familiar…Were you a kunoichi we murdered, bitch?"

Amaye's eyes were wide as she heard that. One, she and Hidan were partners when they were in Yugakure to prevent the tourist site from happening. Second, how many kunoichi had they murdered in the time span of four months?

"N-not you…just a few months ago, I was killed by my own village for voicing out my own opinion…" she whispered. Why was she telling them this?

"Well, whatever, just don't get in our way, bitch," Hidan smirked as Kakuzu glared at her.

"I-I won't be a bother! I'm just here to watch over you, not help you fight!"

"Again, whatever."

"Let's stop here. We won't make it to Amegakure until tomorrow, anyway," Hidan stated casually.

"What, are you tired already?" Amaye attempted to get rid of the bastard-ness in him and get the old teasing Hidan back.

"No, bitch. You're an angel, so you don't get tired! Jashin must hate me for being unable to sacrifice you."

Fine, be that way, Amaye thought angrily, stomping to the other side of the cave they were in. Soon enough, she found the will to go back to heaven to find answers.

On the other side of the cave, Kakuzu and Hidan stared at her, both thinking the same thing: Women.

"You are going to find a way to sacrifice her, aren't you, you rascal?" Kakuzu predicted.

"Hell yeah. Do you know a way?"

"Try to make her want to be human, then sacrifice her. You didn't know that, you idiot?"

"Of c-course I knew that! Wait, there must be a catch to you giving me answers this easily. What the fuck do you want, you bastard?" Hidan's slow brain finally saw a flaw.

"Give me the full salary for the rest of your life. What will it be: no satisfaction from that poser god of yours, or no money for the rest of your life? Choose wisely, stupid Hidan."

"Oi! Jashin-sama is not a poser god! And I already know what to do, now that you've told me, so I won't have to give up my money. Not that I'm a money whore like you or anything, but Jashin likes a bit of money every now and then."

"I also know a way to reverse this method. You forget that I'm wiser than you, that is your mistake."

"Fine, I choose the satisfaction of Jashin-sama. Are you happy?" Hidan grumbled in defeat.

"Yes, I am quite content."

"That was a rhetorical question! And you say all that 'I'm wiser than you' crap."

Amaye stirred on the other side of the cave, as she was coming back to the living world. The two Akatsuki men instantly shut up to make sure they wouldn't spill their plans. Come on, this was a wonderful plan!

They were stealthy, but Amaye still caught on. "You guys are hiding something from me!" Being a former kunoichi had its benefits, right?

"So what if we are? It's not something a stupid, useless soul like you would need to know," Hidan sneered.

Stupid and useless? Amaye had been called that plenty of times by commoners and shinobi alike. Suddenly, she was glad that she was dead—now she couldn't show her stupid and useless tears. This was nice, but she could still sense her aura of annoyance turn to one of misery.

Being men, the two missing-nin didn't sense any change, only a slight chill in the air that disappeared as quickly as it came. Only one thought crossed the angel's mind: Men. Don't we have a wonderful sexist world?

"You guys get some rest. I-I'll take the first shift tonight," Amaye stated. The two men nodded reluctantly, not trusting her at all, but giving in to their exhaustion.

"Damn, this is so confusing!" Amaye hissed to herself once she was sitting alone on a tree outside the cave. "Hidan only acted like this when we were in Yugakure to people he didn't trust…Does he really not remember who I am? We were really close friends back then—he was so open to me. But…I guess we weren't that close at all.

"And joining the Akatsuki?! How could he just betray Yugakure like that? Did he kill anyone before he left? Does anyone remember me back at that village? Fuck, I am so confused! If I were to scream my name out right now, would anyone recognize me? Nice now I'm ranting to myself…"

Right below her, Amaye sensed a presence with no chakra, but with a firm aura. There were lights surrounding it, too.

Did Hidan and Kakuzu hear the loud bells chiming in her ears? Did they see that white light that blinded her? Amaye glanced at the cave expectantly, but she could hear the soft breathing of the two men. Were they just tired, or were they oblivious to this awesome thing?

"Awesome? Not quite, my dear. More like…routine." It was a male.

"Who are you?" Amaye's pipsqueak tone was not as she wanted it to be.

"I am God…" He said, "This will be explained later, but I want you to return to Yugakure after three days. Do I make myself clear?"

Oh, so straightforward, Amaye thought sarcastically, recalling the way he showed up.

"Good to know, Amaye,"God nodded. She couldn't see him through the blinding light, though.

What?! He can read minds? Fuck! she thought.

"Yes I can. Please do not cuss in my presence, though. Thank you." With that, he disappeared.

"Three days? Why? What's the date, anyway? Will Hidan or Kakuzu notice I'm gone?" she voiced her baffled thoughts. There was no one to answer her now.

I really hate myself for this, but… I'm not gonna update this until I get at least five reviews. I'd like to know what you think of this fanfic, so… Plus, there have been a lot of readers, but no reviews except from cheeky half-demon.

Thanks so much for readin though…Please leave a review, just for the sake of a new update. Give me some ideas or advice, too!!
