**Author's note: MORE MATURE CONTENT AHEAD. Hidan being a general creep. Skip if you don't want to read it! :)**

"Well, that's just fuckin' great!" Hidan growled, covering his head as heavy rainfall showered over him and his temporary partner. Although the storm was harsh and thunder rolled nearby, the grey haired man made no effort to hastily get into shelter, unlike the black haired Uchiha girl who skittered inside the cavern once she saw it. "Fuckin rains back home all the god damn time, and now it's fuckin rainin' here." When he finally reached the cavern, he looked over at Sakaria who was wringing out her soaked hair and scowled, "I'm blaming this shit on you, kid. I've been out with Kakuzu damn near a thousand times and it hasn't rained once, but take you along and, sure as shit, it's hurricane season!" Sakaria looked up at him, remaining silent. Truthfully, she wasn't sure what to say. The entire mission had been a disaster from the start, and she hadn't really been able to muster up the courage to say a full sentence to Hidan after hearing all the things he was capable of and how devoted to his sadistic religion he was. "Speak, bitch." He commanded, taking off his robe and running his hand through his soaked silver hair.

"I..." She looked back at the ground, trying to think of what Itachi would say in this situation, but nothing came to mind. That was probably because Itachi wouldn't have said anything. Determined to get out of her brother's shadow, she furrowed her eyebrows and spoke up, "I don't know what you want me to say." She listened as her voice echoed off the cave walls, sounding almost unfamiliar to herself. Hidan raised an eyebrow at this and smirked slightly as she continued without facing him. "Trust me, I don't want to be out here with you anymore than you want to be out here with me."

"Well, well, well," Hidan said sarcastically as he hung his akatsuki robe on his scythe while it leaned against the cavern wall, "Looks like that pretty little mouth works after all. I wonder what else it does." He said cooly. Sakaria rolled her eyes and took off her robe as well, tossing it on the floor as she sat on a nearby boulder in order to remove her sopping wet shoes.

"Nothing for you," She replied hatefully as she shook the water from her sandals. Hidan laughed.

"You got some nerve talkin to me like we're buddies all of a sudden," the grey haired man replied, walking closer and stopping just before her so that he was towering over Sakaria's petite frame. "Where'd all this attitude come from, small fry? I've been nothing but fuckin' nice to you so far... and that's been a real test for me cause I know Lord Jashin would love an Uchiha sacrifice." He placed his index finger on her chin to raise her face to him, but she swatted him away causing him to erupt into laughter again. "Still though, I gotta admit, I like you more this way. Your feisty little ass turns me on." Sakaria grimaced more to the floor than to him and drew her bare feet closer to her on the rock, trying to cover her chest with her knees as much as possible. Hidan was sure to lean in, feeling his own hot breath ricochet off her face as he spoke, "You scared yet, little girl?"

"No," Sakaria said, standing from her seat on the rock, and gathering some stones nearby to form a fire pit. "I'm afraid of plenty of things, Hidan, but you are not one of them." She stuck her nose in the air a little, hoping to fool him with her arrogant front.

"Hm," Hidan snorted, seating himself on the ground in front of the area Sakaria was building the fire, "Funny." He leered up at her as she used her jutsu to ignite the sticks she had found and sat across from him. After studying her closely for a moment, he stretched and leaned back on his hands. "It's been a while since I've spent the night with a girl. You wanna play seven minutes in heaven or some shit?" He grinned sarcastically.

"As if." Sakaria snarled, poking at the fire without looking at him.

"Aw, c'mon, chick," Hidan almost whined, "You know how fuckin boring it gets hanging out with that sausage fest?" Sakaria looked up at him and raised an eyebrow. "What I mean is, there's what, two whole girls in the akatsuki?... three if you count that Deidara bitch, but it's not like I can get off to that. And Konan's so damn high strung, it's not like I'm gettin anywhere with her either. So that leaves..." He rolled his hand as if he were coaxing her to finish his sentence but she simply looked back down at the fire, annoyed. "You know, it ain't like I can't just make you help me out." He grinned wickedly causing Sakaria to swallow hard.

"You wouldn't," Sakaria muttered, "Itachi would-"

"Ha! Itachi!? You think I'm scared of some pea brained little twerp like him? Sides, he used your whole family for target practice, why would he care what happened to you!?" He scooted closer to her and watched as Sakaria's fists clinched in her lap. "I'm going easy on you, doll. In fact, I'm gonna have to ask Lord Jashin for forgiveness for not tearing you open right now in his name." His arm snaked around her shoulders and he pulled her into him despite her physical protests.

"Please, Hidan..." Sakaria grimaced, still trying to push him away.

"Mmm, that's it. I like it when you beg," He leaned in closely and cooed in her ear, "I'll make you a deal. My religion tells me it isn't virtuous to be greedy..." He reached into his pocket with his free hand and pulled out a black and gold coin purse, "And, you know, I'm a very devout follower... I'd like to share the wealth a little..." He opened the small bag revealing a rather large amount of money he'd received as payment for years worth of slaughtering. "But, I'm struggling here, cause my religion also tells me that it's a sin to be a sloth and you should work for what you receive. You get what I'm hintin at, little girl?" He said, dangling the now closed coin purse over his partner's head. He watched as her fight faded and her eyes followed the pouch back and forth like a pendulum as if he were trying to hypnotize her.

"What do you want?" She moused, almost intrigued by his offer, but mostly convincing herself that if she didn't give in to him, it would happen regardless, with or without the incentive or her consent.

"You know what I want," Hidan grinned, his hand snaking down to her waist as he gripped her tightly.

"I..." Sakaria sighed, feeling her chest get heavy, "You just want to get off, right?" She asked, feeling out of her element while she tried to speak in a way he'd understand.

Hidan raised an eyebrow at this. "Well, no shit."

"So... If I help you... do that. I can have all that money?"

"And the bag to go with it," Hidan promised, his eyes flashing eagerly.

"It doesn't matter how I do it?"

"What are you trying to get at, bitch? You gotta work for what you want."

"I know, I just," Sakaria pulled herself to her knees and put one hand on his thigh, causing him to twitch and unfold his legs excitedly. "I think some acts are more valuable than what you're paying." She said, looking down at his lap.

Hidan suddenly understood and sighed, slightly annoyed. "You don't wanna fuck, is that it?" He was never one to beat around the bush and grew impatient when others did.

"Y-Yeah..." Sakaria admitted nervously.

"Alright, let's see what your mouth can do then," Hidan said, quickly freeing himself from his pants and grabbing the back of her head, forcing her face close to his erection. "If you can finish me off this way, I'll give ya the damn money. If it takes ya too long though..." He eyed her up and down, his hand still placed roughly on the back of her head.

"You didn't!" Deidara almost gasped, looking wide eyed at his friend. Sakaria sighed and looked at her lap.

"I mean, it was gross, but if I didn't do that, I would have had to do a lot more I guess," she shrugged. "I got the money and I kept my clothes on so I guess that's probably the best I could expect to come of that."

"Why the hell am I just now hearing about this?" Deidara said, disbelievingly, "I can't believe Itachi didn't blow him to smithereens. He wouldn't even let me talk to you for who knows how long when I first joined the akatsuki, so I know he must've flipped his lid when he heard about that! Hm!"

Sakaria quickly put her hands up to him, trying to shut him up as though her brother could somehow hear, "Itachi doesn't know. You can't say anything to him. Promise you won't!" The blond man beside her looked at her puzzled.

"Wait, what do you mean he doesn't know? Hm? Itachi is the whole reason you're not allowed to go out on scouting missions with Hidan anymore, isn't he? Why would he tell Pain not to send you out with him if he didn't know..."

"Part of the deal was, Hidan couldn't tell anyone anything...When I came back from that mission, Itachi asked me a thousand times how things went and I just told him everything was fine..." She sighed and hugged her knees guiltily, "Itachi has always been able to tell when we were lying to him..." She thought back to her childhood with Sasuke and Itachi for a moment then looked back up at Deidara, "We always tried to be truthful with one another, and Itachi really didn't like me keeping things from him, so he just decided to prevent anything that I'd have to hide from happening ever again." Deidara looked at the floor for a moment then put a hand on his friend's shoulder in solidarity.

"I won't tell anyone," He promised, looking over at her seriously. "But what are you going to do if something ever happens to Itachi? Hmm?" He would never say he was planning to be the cause of her elder brother's demise, but it might throw a wrench in his plans if Sakaria wouldn't be safe without him.

She thought hard for a moment as though it hadn't occurred to her before because it hadn't. Suddenly, the harsh reality that Itachi might not be around soon weighed heavily on her, and she wondered what she would do once he was gone. Would she even want to stay in the akatsuki? Would she even want to be alive? Just when she smiled at her artistic friend and started to speak, the moment was quickly brought to an end as the doors to the temple creaked open. Both ninja quickly jumped away and hid behind a pillar that had fallen and cracked into several colossal pieces in the far corner of the sanctuary.
