The rest of the Akatsuki ran to the bridge, after seeing the message Kakuzu received. Konan, Sasori, and Kisame said that they'd stay to watch the base. Konan gave Kakuzu a death glare, which made him come along also.

They found Hidan at the bottom of the lake, he was completely dry, but his heartbeat had stopped.

"He must've inhaled some water when he was down there." Pein said, lifting his head from Hidan's chest, after hearing no heartbeat.

"He'll be fine. He's immortal." Kakuzu said, resting his head in his hand. "He'll be fine in a few minutes."

Pein looked at him. "Thanks for the tip." He said, and picked Hidan up. "Let's move back to the base." Then they all tele-portated to the base xD.

--

When they got back to the base, Konan gave Kakuzu his fiftieth scolding, about how emotional Hidan can be. Deidara would'nt leave Hidan's side, waiting for his best friend to awaken. Then, slowly, one-by-one the akatsuki pairs were called down to Pein's office. Where they were told an order, and left the base.

--

Hidan awoke to no one in the room, he sat up, coughing up a bit of water. He hugged his knees and closed his eyes, coughing again. A sharp knock came off the door.

"Hidan, report to my office." Pein said.

--

"Uhm. Konan, Im going to need Kakuzu for a bit." Pein told her, pulling Kakuzu into his office.

"I hope you give him a good lecture too!" She told him, then walked away.

--

They were in Pein's office, Hidan in the same room as Kakuzu, sitting as far away from him as possible.

"Okay, so...Im pretty sure you've seen everyone else leaving?"

"Yes." Kakuzu replied.

"No."

"Good. The same will happen to you. I want you two to set off towards the Burning Village of Miacraf."

Kakuzu's eyes widened, Hidan's eyes did the same.

"But, that's only a myth! A fairy tale to scare little children!"

Kakuzu shot a glare to Hidan, "How will we know where to find it?"

Pein shook his head. "I'll give you a map to follow. The village is intensely hot, so I would prefer you to dress in the proper outfits. The people there are very...different. Im sure you wont mind that though, seeing as how you're no different either." He eyed Hidan.

"Any Questions? No? Dismissed." He waved them away with his hand.

--

"Hidan."

"What the fuck do you want?"

"I found your cell." He handed it over to the Jashinist.

Hidan snatched it. "Don't fucking touch my stuff." Hidan ran out the room, wearing nothing but his Akatsuki pants.

Kakuzu sighed, this would be a long trip.
