It was completely silent in the base, until a loud roar came from deep inside the bathroom.
Tobi flew out of the door in a rushed panic whilst crying,

"tobi is so sorry Itachi-san ! It was not Tobi's fault !"
A crowd had gathered outside the bathroom door and were peering in to try and sneek a peek at the outcome. Kisame pushed his way to the front, walked into the bathroom and locked the door behind him. Itachi was leant forward over the bath, leaning on his right hand and the shower head in his left. he was breathing heavily and his head was too far over for Kisame to see what had happened. He slowly stood up straight and turned towards Kisame, his wet hair flopped in his face, still dripping. All Kisame could think to do was let out a huge, bellowing laugh,
"Its ORANGE !" he cried between gasps and giggles. "You have orange hair ! YOU ! Itachi Uchiha has ORANGE HAIR !" he yelled.

"No. Shit." itachi replied. "What the fuck am i going to do ?" Kisame had managed to pull himself together by now but his ribs were aching badly.
"you're gona have to face everyone sometime, better sooner rather than later..." Kisame panted.
Itachi replied with,

"hn." He prepared himself for what was sitting in the living room. He opened the bathroom door as fast as he could, stormed past the crowd that had gathered outside, and took his place on the living room floor. There was uproar of laughter as the remaining 7 ninjas were rolling on the floor, pissing themselves laughing.
Through gasps for air, Deidara finally managed to struggle out,

"wait, why has it gone Orange ? Surely it would only go orange if... Ooooohh..."
"If what ?" Hidan demanded. Deidara let out a sly giggle in response to the pleading looks coming from Itachi.
"It would only go orange, if you have numerously dyed your hair a dark colour. I think dear Itachi here has something to share with us..." Deidara grinned. There was an awkward silence for about 30 seconds until a loud sigh came from itachi and he said,

"Its true, Im not a natural dark blue. My hair is naturally brown, much like my fathers, but i started dying it when Sasuke was born. It kinda stuck with me since then, because everyone assumed it was my natural colour." The room was silent, and a gasp came from the group that were pacily making their way towards their seats in the living room.
"So, now you all know," he continued. "Do me a favour, and save the piss-taking until after, we have a game to finish." he growled at Kisame, who was still vigourusly giggling to himself, and who would still be giggling many hours later. Once everyone had gotten back to their seets and had calmed down, Pein said,

"Seeing as itachi completed his dare, It's his turn to spin the bottle," whilst motioning to Itachi to spin the empty glass bottle. He reached out his slightly shakey hand and span it clockwise as fast as it could. There was an almost panicked look on each ninja's face as it spun swiftly past them. As it got slower and slower the faces became more and more panicked, until it finally stopped, in Hidan's place, or where Hidan used to be sitting.
"Where the fuck is Hidan ?" Itachi exclaimed. Everyone echanged confused looks and Itachi continued to stare at the empty seat.
"Said something about Lord-thingy-majjig... Jashin ! Thats the one ! he said somthing about a sacrifice to Lord Jashin !" Kakuzu remembered, sounding very pleased with himself that he had remembered the message. A look of severe dissapointment passed accross Itachi's face.
"Oh, brilliant." He said sulkily, "I was REALLY looking forward to daring him to do something stupid, him being immortal and everything." Pein motioned to the bottle again,
"Technically, you get another spin," he grumbled. Itachi didn't say anything in reply, he just reached for the bottle and span it again. This time it didn't land in Hidan's place, and sadly not in Peins either. The medium sized green glass bottle landed with its neck pointing clearly at Tobi.

Hidan and Beth were walking through the woods that cleverly disguised the tiny little cottage they had met in not so long ago.

"Do you think they've noticed you're missing yet?" Beth said in an innocent sounding voice.
"Probably," Hidan replied, "Not long now until we get there. Its not much, but its private, I like peace when i do my rituals."
Beth looked at him with understanding eyes,

"I know how you feel," she agreed. "Although, privacy is all you seem to have when you're on the run." Hidan paused for a second, and studied the new information. Shes on the Run? Why would someone like her be on the run?
"Because I did something I shouldn't have," she claimed regretfully. Hidan looked at her, shocked. He wasn't expecting her to say that, infact, he wasnt expecting her to say anything at all, seeing as he didnt say it out loud.

"What the fuck ?" He exclaimed. "How the hell ?" Beth giggled slightly under her breath and began to explain.
"Basically, its my bloodline limit. I can enter peoples minds, and sometimes talk to them in their heads. Its not like reading minds, it's different to that. I haven't got complete control of it yet, practice makes perfect. Sometimes i sub-conciously enter peoples minds. I cant help it, it comes naturally to me, its who i am." Hidan was a little taken back by this explination, and didnt really know what to say in reply, but he didnt need to, because they had arrived.
It was a small porch-like set up, all made of wood with a very large Jashinism symbol carved into the back wall, stained dark crimson with blood. Many weapons and tools were sprawled accross the floor, all covered in blood. There was artierial spray patterns accross the walls and many little minature cirlces with triangles in the middle were drawn onto the wood. Beth reached inside her top and pulled out her long silver chain which had a charm identicle to the symbol carved on the back wall hanging off it. She closed her eyes and squeezed her charm, then she placed in back inside her top.

"Snap," Hidan whispered in her ear, whilst holding the pendant that was usually hanging around his neck.
The beautiful purple themed girl spun around to find herself face-to-face with the S-class criminal. This startled her and she took a few steps back, tripping over the uneven wooden pannels and landing with a heavy THUD on her left ankle. There was a grotesque snapping sound when she tried to stand up as her ankle gave way and snapped in half. Due to the fact she was a jashinist she really couldn't care less about the pain, but the sight of it was disgusting.
"Holy Jashin ! That was one hell of a snap !" Hidan exclaimed. "We better get you home before that heals funny, otherwise you'll be deformed !" Beth looked down at the broken bones and pool of blood. "But... My house is hours away, we'll never make it in time! Were going to have to sort it out here.." She said, slightly worryingly.
"There is another option.. We could go back to the base, but you'd have to be mega quiet. You remember Kakuzu ? Well, hes sorta the medic, he'll help us." Grateful at the fact that she might not be deformed for the rest of her life, Beth accepted the invitation to visit the illusive Akatsuki base and she let Hidan carry her back, well, she had to be careful not to damage her ankle anymore.
