Hitomi awoke early and left some breakfast beside the men while she made her way to the "x" on her map. Looking around her she began to dig where the "x" was. She worked quickly for someone could come at any given time.
The trees rustling, she kept digging until she found a hand. Moving carefully but quickly she found the whole body, except for the head. Then she heard footsteps.
She had the body in a canvas pack but the trip would be for naught without the head. She searched frantically and finally, she lifted his head out and, grabbing the pack, left.
Running through the forest, she wouldn't have had time to fill the hole. The pack was on her back while she held the head in her arms. That's when Hidan opened his eyes.
"Hello Hidan sir," she kept running "we're almost there. Pretty soon you'll be in one piece and here we are."
She slid down the hole and ran through the hall in a rush, into the room. She locked the door and set Hidan down.
"Comfy?" She asked.
"I'm fine. Now what the hell is going on?" He frowned.
Hitomi walked to one of the tables and removed the white sheet on top of it to reveal Kakuzu. He was dressed in an Akatsuki cloak and wore a mask. He also had a ring on his left middle finger.
"I'm going to bring him back and you'll be put back together. Then, I can make it look as if nothing happened."
Hidan blinked.
"The two men over there will help too." She gestured in the men's direction. "Cinnamon hair is going to bring back Kakuzu while Stocky is going to be there in case you want to do a ritual afterwards." Hitomi began to move jars, matches, candles, books, medical equipment, and other various items.
"And who or what's to stop me from sacrificing you?" Hidan questioned.
"Well, I can put up a fight but if you really want to than I'm shit outta luck." She looked over.
Cinnamon sighed when she unlocked his chains.
"Hidan, I apologize if you get annoyed or angered but this is going to take a while. I'll work as quickly as I can."
Then Cinnamon was laid down on a table bseide Kakuzu. Hitomi began a complex series of handsigns, too fast to read. Yet, as fast as she worked, it wasn't until an hour later that she was finished with the handsigns.
At that moment, she moved to Cinnamon and cut the flesh into a flap above the heart. Cinnamon was still living as she lifted it up with a squelch. He gasped for air while she carefully cut through the rib-cage.
He had to live until she got the heart in Kakuzu.
She pulled the heart and cut the tender muscle. Her hands were soaked in so much crimson, they were black. Cinnamon's hair clung to his forehead with sweat. Hitomi opened the front of the cloak on Kakuzu and inserted the heart in the spot where it should be.
Cinnamon was pale and dying while she repeated the handsigns until he gave a final, shuddering gasp.
She looked at Kakuzu, then Cinnamon, then Kakuzu.
"Did I mess up?" She stood beside Kakuzu looking at Cinnamon.
Suddenly, Kakuzu grabbed the neck of her shirt and pulled her to look eye to eye. She yelped and held her breath while Kakuzu stared into her eyes.
"What is your name?" he asked.
"Buremeru Hitomi." she squeaked.
"Hmm." He pushed her away and sat up. He stood and walked over to Cinnamon.
Hitomi backed up to the wall and slid down. Stocky slid towards a corner, or as close as he could get. Kakuzu had a short conversation with Hidan that Hitomi couldn't hear. The someone knocked on the door.
