So yea, sorry if I don't update for awhile...it's going to be hectic! XD So here is what I'd got so far, it's short I know, but at least it something, after today I pack. BUT we may be getting a SUGAR GLIDER!! They are sooo cute! Um...getting of track, but nothin much to say so here is this measly chappy. I don't really think this is a very good chapter, and it's short, but maybe you all will like it (I pray) Also, I didn't send this to my beta since I wanted this out now, so there are gonna be some mistakes...

Kumori, Hidan, and Kakuzu all stood in Leader's office. Leader himself was sitting in a very comfy and squishy looking chair. the reason they were here; Kumori was going on her first mission.

Ever.

Not her first mission as an Akatsuki, her first one ever. At the Facility, they only had training periods where they were to complete a challenge, and undoubtedly go through many unnecessary and unavoidable torturing to see what the curses reactions would be. But never were they sent on an actual mission. Someone could have escaped, or they could miss valuable information.

"Your mission is to retrieve a scroll containing valuable information from Iwagakure. It is located in the Tsuchikage's main chamber. Where the main chamber is exactly is unknown. Do not be detected, you have one week. You are to also map out the building for future purposes. However if this is unable to be, then skip it. You will return to it another day. The map is ONLY a side mission. Any questions?" Leader spoke with his words clipped, and Kumori was once again reminded that he was the leader. Over the past few days, she had become accustomed to the other side of Leader. The one that was sorta nice and cared. This Leader had eyes of permafrost and an attitude to match.

The silence past for a few seconds before Hidan spoke up.

"So what's in the damn scroll anyway?"

"Information on what Iwagakure know of us, and of any bijuu information they contain." Leader answered flatly. Another few seconds of silence past, before Kakuzu, Hidan, and Kumori were dismissed. Silently the three split off into their rooms to pack.

NEXT-SCENE-NEXT-SCENE-NEXT-SCENE-NEXT-SCENE-NEXT-SCENE-NEXT-SCENE-NEXT-SCENE-NEXT-SCENE-NEXT-SCENE

Thump, thump, thump, thump.

Kumori stared ahead making sure that she didn't run into a tree branch. the forest was silent except for the thump of ninja sandals on the trees. Occasionally Hidan and Kakuzu would bicker over something useless, but Kumori remained silent.

Her mind was elsewhere. Back in the bathroom when she had...well basically cut herself. Did this make her like those suicidal people like back at the Facility? A self-mutilator? Was she like those people who are sent away to get help from a psychiatrist?

Great, now she's a mentally disturbed S-Class nin with the snake-teme sannin on her ass. Anything else to add?

"Kumori! Wait up damnit!" Hidan called from behind her. Startled, she twisted her neck around to see she had nearly left them behind, she could barely see them! She came to a halt as they ran to catch up.

"Would you wait up? We don't have your ridiculous speed." Kakuzu growled through pants.

"Seriously! And listen too, we've been calling your damn name forever!" Hidan snapped. Kumori hotly replied;

"Well, I'm sooory that you are to slow!"

"Damnit we are NOT SLOW!"

"Then keep up!"

"That isn't fucking possible unless you can somehow carry both of us!" Hidan seethed. His face turning a bright shade of red.

Without saying anything, Kumori's form began to change. Taken by surprise, Hidan lept backwards into Kakuzu's chest, who fell in a fork in the boughs.

They watched as her neck began to grow, the bones popping and breaking, some all together disappearing. Her hair fused with her skin, and on the back of her neck it hung loosely. She fell on all fours as her spine unfurled, her thighs widened. Her arms grew out, as did her legs, and a chunk of her hair grew from her lower back.

The disgruntled men took in Kumori's new form. She was a large horse with a white coat, red mane and tail, and of course her eyes were red. The horse glared at them.

Thankfully they weren't that far from the ground, so Kumori jumped of the bough and landed gracefully on the forest floor.

"Get on." She ordered.

"Why should I?" Hidan said sarcastically. With an annoyed growl, Kakuzu pushed the Jashin worshiper off of him. Kumori trotted (literally) over, and caught Hidan. Then, Kakuzu jumped down, and landed square on Hidan's back. Both Kakuzu and Kumori ignored his violent thrashings, curses, and attempted stabs. (which only succeeded in him stabbing himself)

Hidan finally excepted the fact that he was bent over Kumori's back with Kakuzu sitting on him when the kunoichi began to run. Instead he held on and tucked his head in so as it wouldn't get caught by a tree. Kakuzu hunching over her neck for the same reason.

Two were definitely NOT used to running through the thick forest, not on a path, at speeds that were only humanly obtained by Might Gai or Rock Lee being on a sugar rush AND no weights.

How Kumori had this speed with no added chakra...who the hell knows.

So, for several long hours the rode/ran. Until it was dusk. Kumori slowed to a walk, and asked a bird something. The bird jumped back and gave a loud screech when a strangely colored horse talked to it. After the small chat, the kunoichi trotted off to the right for a small way, before they came across a large thorn bush. Taking a few steps back, she charged, and jumped at the last second, barely clearing the bush. Hidan gave a yelp from the sudden action, but was cut short when the air was knocked out of him at the landing.

"Couldn't we have had a warning!" Hidan yelled at the horse, a few curses mingled in. She merely snorted before changing back into her human self. Kakuzu jumped of in time, but Hidan got a part of melting spine to the face.

"Damnit!" As Hidan slid off, rubbed his nose, and tackled Kumori Kakuzu looked around, and set up camp. He figured that Kumori was getting tired, and quiet frankly he was happy. He was really stiff and wanted off. Looking over to Kumori and his lover, he gave a small smile, which was hidden by his mask, before laying everything out.

Oh my! You found out a secret! GASP
