As the months went on, Hitomi found that her stomach would become heavier and she'd waddle instead of walk. To top it off, she couldn't hold back from wetting herself since the children sat on her bladder. It was difficult and she was hungry often for cravings that drove her insane. She would have to deal with pains and things she'd never dealt with before.
And god forbid the pain she experienced with contractions and when it was time for the babies to come? Holy. Fuck. Pain beyond any pain she'd had before in her life. Her pelvis felt like it was cracking in half, like it was ready to explode and shatter into a million pieces. God it hurt so fucking much! When they finally got to the lab where the personal doctors were ready to help her give birth, they put her under pain medications and the only thing she could remember happening afterwards was a lot of screaming and she grabbed Hidan's arm at one point and screamed as loud as she could,
"YOU DID THIS TO ME!"
All Hidan could do was to laugh and then he proceeded to pass out on the floor.
-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-
Some hours later, Hitomi was holding two small babies, a boy and a girl, fraternal twins. The little boy had brown hair and big brown-black eyes with tender lips and slender fingers but a chubby body. The baby girl took after Hidan with a tuft of silver hair atop her head and striking lavender eyes, slimmer than the boy but still chubby. They both held onto their mother and Hidan was brought back in after having been dragged out since he passed out.
"So those are the kids, huh? Oh my Jashin I'm a daddy." He grinned from ear to ear, "Oh look, he looks like you and she looks like me. They're so damn... small. How did they get so small? Where did they come out anyways?"
"Well if you hadn't passed out you would have seen where they came out and so help me god-"
"Jashin." He interrupted.
"So help me Jashin," she continued, "If you ever make me pregnant again I will kill you. I don't care what it takes, I took you out of the ground and I can just as well put you back in there. That fucking HURT."
"Alright, alright. I don't need little seeds of doom running around everywhere anyways... you know, I heard kids were whining, crying, shit machines but these two aren't doing anything..." Hidan frowned, poking the boy's nose.
"Oh just you wait.. it only gets worse from here..." Hitomi sighed, having helped raise four siblings she knew about kids and how unfun it was to deal with them sometimes.
"Right... well... what should we name 'em?" Hidan asked, climbing into the bed and lying beside Hitomi, one arm around her and the other held by the girl's mouth where she was sucking on his finger.
"We can each name one, how about that?" Hitomi nodded, "I'll name the boy and you name the girl, okay? Is that a deal you can live with?"
"Sure." Hidan nodded as he thought, chewing his tongue a moment before blurting out, "Bunny. I want to name her Bunny."
Hitomi blinked, "You're serious?"
"As a heart attack. I want to name her Bunny." He nodded, his eyes showing he wouldn't take no for an answer.
"Maybe I should name the boy Jesus." Hitomi smirked.
"If you do that I will murder you in your sleep." Hidan glared.
She frowned, "Fine. I want to name him Christopher."
"Alright... Chris and Bunny... got it." Hidan nodded.
Hitomi smiled and kissed the children's heads. Hidan looked at the children and Hitomi before smirking and whispering,
"Guess what?"
"What?" Hitomi asked.
"I'm a Daddy." he grinned.
Hitomi rolled her eyes, chuckling softly.
Just then, Emiri ran in, "HITOMI! What happened! Did it go okay! Are you okay!"
"I'm fine." Hitomi smiled and nodded, "Meet Chris and Bunny."
"Bunny?" Emiri blinked.
"Hidan named her." Hitomi explained.
"Oh... that explains it." Emiri nodded, "Why'd you name him Chris though?"
"After my Uncle Christopher." Hitomi nodded, "I looked up to him."
"Isn't that the Uncle that committed suicide?" Emiri blinked.
"YOU NAMED OUR SON AFTER A DEAD GUY!" Hidan burst out.
"Hey! He was a great guy!" Hitomi snapped.
"Alright, alright..." Hidan sighed, not saying another word.
-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-
After a while, Emily had to leave on a mission to help Akatsuki and Hitomi was in hiding in a house. Hidan would stop by every now and then when he could, when he wasn't busy, or when he was in town... not very often in other words.
One morning she got out of bed, feeding the babies, changing them, and then letting them sleep while she went to make breakfast for herself. A three room house wasn't easy to be in since Hidan had moved her again. The place was tiny and it was tough but liveable.
She sighed as she heard a noise signalling that Bunny was up and had woken up Christopher... again. She walked from the kitchen into the bedroom and picked them up, one in each arm. She heard the front door open, it was in the kitchen. She blinked,
"Hidan? You're home early. I thought you said you were going on a mission..." She peeked out the door and gasped, "Oh dear god."
She closed the bedroom door and locked it, holding the children close and trying to hide behind the bed. She whimpered and began to pray quietly.
"Hitomi... come out... you know you can't hide from me..." Kakuzu's voice came through the door.
"You don't have to kill me! How did you find me!" She hid the children under the bed, trying to quiet their crying.
"Who cares how I found you? Just open the door. Do NOT make me open the door. You don't want to make me angry do you? You know what I'll do when I'm angry, don't you? You just might lose the kiddies if you make me angry..." He growled lowly, "Now open the door..."
Hitomi reluctantly got up, opening the door but leaving the babies in the crib. She looked up at Kakuzu and gulped, eyes wide.
"Good girl..." he looked at her and nodded, glaring as usual, "Leave the kids, you're coming with me... Hidan will notice I'm gone soon and he'll come to check... He'll get the kids... now come along.."
"I can't leave them alone! They're just babies!" Hitomi gasped.
"Well they're going to be dead babies if you don't shut your trap and come with me." He growled.
She sniffled but followed him, not saying another word. She could hear her babies crying as she followed him, hoping to anyone and everyone that Hidan would find the children and keep them safe. She certainly wasn't expecting the two-day trip that Kakuzu took her on. After two days journey they came to a small shack-like house. It was worse than before. All it had was a bathroom and a bedroom. Kakuzu shoved her in and closed the door.
"I'm going to lock you in here and you will stay here until I decide to let you loose, understood?" Kakuzu explained.
"But... why?" she looked at him, scared. To be honest she was terrified she was going to die...
He leaned in close to her, pulling his mask down and she could see the stitches trailing lines across his cheeks as he spoke, they moved, "No questions asked. By now Hidan has found the children and realized I've taken you... but be assured it isn't without reason... I've talked to Leader and we've made some agreements... You just have to be the good little girl and obey. Got it?"
She felt her bottom lip tremble as she nodded. She thought to herself, "Dear god, what are they going to do with me?"
Kakuzu nodded, "Good girl... now that step one is over with of the plan... on to step two."
He reached out and yanked on her shirt and she heard a tear before she tried to back up, holding what was left of the shirt to herself, "WOAH! What the hell are you doing!"
"I said no questions. Now shut up and obey your orders or else I'll have no choice but to kill you." he frowned and threads moved out of his sleeves, wrapping around her wrists and ankles.
"Leader would never agree to this though! Would he...?" her eyes were wide with fear.
Kakuzu frowned, "Don't worry... I'm not the only one... I just get to start... Leader will get his turn in time and don't think that your friend Emiri will be left out of this... Leader will let Itachi know what to do with her..."
"You're insane! You can't do this!" Her eyes watered and suddenly threads were at her mouth, gagging her.
"I said shut up... now... we can do this the easy way or the hard way... you choose. You can choose to enjoy this, it's not that hard." He stepped closer to her, running a finger along her skin, "Hm. Smooth skin..." Unlike his rough skin from working hard and fighting.
She lowered her gaze, falling silent as she realized this is what she was ordered to do and she had promised to follow orders. Afterall, she had gone with Kankuro, hadn't she? She might as well enjoy this... or try to... If she was going to hate herself, she'd better have good reason for it. She was so lost in thought she didn't even realize that Kakuzu had undressed her. He didn't undress himself, however, he just looked at her and made a face.
"Ugh... you're still just a kid..." he growled and let the threads slide away from her mouth.
"Can I please have a couple more days?" she asked, sounding defeated, "Just a couple days to get ready... to prepare... then I'll please you... I won't fight and I'll behave... just a couple days... please..."
He frowned at her, "Fine... but only because I'm not in the mood anyways." He dropped her to the floor and picked up the clothes, "But I'm taking these with me..."
He turned and left without another word, locking her in the shack with no windows. When she heard the lock click she cried herself to sleep on the dirt floor.
-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-
When Hitomi woke up she heard noises outside, sounded like...
"Kankuro!" she called out and the sounds paused before a voice replied.
"Who's there? How do you know my brother's name?"
"Please! Where is Kankuro!" she called back, "I'm locked up here, I know him personally!"
The noises came closer and the person called from right outside the wall, "Are you in there? Who should I say is looking for him?"
"I'm in here. Tell him that Hitomi is locked up by the Akatsuki member Kakuzu." she called out to them, whoever they were.
"Just a moment and you can tell him yourself... I'll be back soon..." the noises went off into the distance, leaving her alone once more.
During the whole time that she waited, she was terrified that someone, Kakuzu, would come back before her saviors could help her. When they finally got back, Kankuro's voice came out,
"Hitomi? Are you in there?"
"Yes! It's me!" she began to cry for joy, "Please, get me out of here!"
"Don't worry, we're getting you out..." He nodded and whoever he was with broke the lock.
Kankuro opened the door and peeked in before catching sight of her, dirty and naked, and he hurried over, "Where have you been? What happened?"
She just cried, falling to her knees and hugging him around his calves and knees, sobbing. Kankuro helped her out to show that Gaara, his brother, was the one who had heard her first. Kankuro took off his shirt and let Hitomi wear it, taking her back to their camp.
There would be a lot of explaining to do...
