Immortality Chapter 2: The Akatsuki
The boy awoke to hear someone rustling through the bushes. He frowned and lay still, trying not to be noticed. A tanned hand, looking nearly leathery, shot through the leaves and grabbed his leg, causing him to squeal as he was yanked out of his sleeping area.
As he was quickly yanked out, he slicked his hair back, hissing and batting at whoever was pulling him.
"Let me the FUCK go, you ass hole!" He pushed his shirt down so that it covered his slender body, tears forming at the corners of his eyes as the grip on his leg tightened unreasonably.
"You're already annoying me, brat. I was sent to find you and take you back, so shut the hell up before I kill you right now." A deep, gruff voice harshly spoke as he was lifted face-to-face with a masked man who had green eyes and red cornea.
The boy's eyes widened in fear, but his lips quirked upward into a mocking smirk as the fear faltered slightly. "Just you fucking try it, ass hat."
The man shook his head in an annoyed way and threw the boy onto the ground, causing him to yelp as he landed on a slightly large, yet dull rock.
"Ouch! That fucking hurt, fucker!" The boy gripped the pendant around his neck. It was a circle with an upside-down, equilateral triangle on the inside of it.
"What is that?" The man's eyes flickered to the pendent.
"None of your damn business; now go the fuck away!" The boy stood, his eyes widening as his ankle made a loud snapping noise and he fell back down onto his front. "GAH!" He screamed in pain as he looked at his ankle, which had cracked out of place and was now twisted sideways. "LOOK AT WHAT YOU FUCKING DID!"
The man roughly picked the teen up and swung him over his shoulder, carrying him towards a different village.
"Put me down!" The boy thrashed, beating the man's back.
"Shut UP!" The man threw the boy to the ground again. "Now. What the hell is your name, brat?"
The boy figured that this man might at least attemptto help him, so he swallowed nervously. "H-Hidan…"
"Kakuzu. Now, either I carry you, or you walk on your own, brat."
Hidan's pretty, pink eyes widened in fear as he shook his head swiftly.
"What is that supposed to mean?" Kakuzu looked at Hidan's eyes and his frown deepened. "Do you wear contact lenses?"
"C-carry me!" Hidan crossed his arms, feeling pathetic. "Fucker. And I could ask the same fucking question for you, bastard!"
"Answer my god damn question and then I'll carry you."
"You mean Jashin…"
"What?"
"Jashin!"
"Who the hell is Jashin?"
"My fucking god, dumb ass!"
"Oh, so is that why you wear that pendant? You're a Jashinist and that symbol is for your religion?"
Hidan's eyes widened slightly. But this man could help him, so why fucking lie? "Y-yeah… And I don't wear contact lenses…"
Kakuzu nodded and lifted Hidan bridal style, beginning to walk again. "Go to sleep. You'll need the rest; it will help heal your foot faster.."
Hidan nodded but didn't close his eyes.
"Didn't you hear me? Go. To. Sleep."
"No."
"Why not?"
"I'm wondering."
"What?"
"Where did you come from and why did you come?"
"I came from the area in which I live in and I was sent on a mission to find you."
"Wait one fucking minute! Will I be fucking turned in and arrested!? Oh, Jashin no! If I have to go to jail again, I'll fucking—"
"No. I was not ordered to turn you in. Now shut up and listen to the whole damned story." Hidan was really pissing Kakuzu off. "I was sent to find you by our leader-sama to test your strength and ability to join."
"Join what, exactly!?"
"The Akatsuki."
Hidan's eyes widened at the word. Akatsuki… Where the hell he did know that from?
… …
Oh! It was an organization for people who had betrayed their villages and who were really strong! Hidan was considered and S-ranking nin, so he'd be able to join as soon as he had all his strength back, which meant eating.
"Will I be able to fucking eat before I get fucking tested?" Hidan's eyes glittered with weak hope.
"What kind of question is that?" Kakuzu's eyebrow twitched unnoticeably, but he kept walking.
"Well, I'm damn hungry and don't have my full strength yet, so I have to eat to fucking get it back!"
"We can ask Leader-sama."
"Hmmm… Okay, I guess that that's a fucking good answer…"
Did you like it? I should make the chapters longer, huh? Sorry if it's bad; I haven't written a story in SO long! I just have a lack of inspiration... Any ideas?
