A/N: Hello! Sorry for the kind-of-late update. Summer doesn't come without random-time-appearing trips to some country. In this summer, it's Norway. (Honestly, every summer, my parents suddenly decide that we trip somewhere. AND THEY INFORM IT ON RANDOM TIMES! This time they informed me when I was playing Assassins Creed (awesome game) on my Xbox! :U)

Anyway, I really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, REALLY love your reviews. It means SO much to me, knowing that there is people reading my stories :') BIG THANKS TO YOU ALL!

Random PS: I'm eating chocolate coins right now (stolen from my little bro) x3 It is ''somehow'' reminding me of a certain old (but hot!) money whore that has an annoying (but hot! XD) immortal partner...

Kakuzu couldn't believe his ears. Nor his mind. Nor his thoughts. And he certainly couldn't believe his eyes, when he silently and carefully turned around only to see the one and only Aumori Yutaka.

'...What in the hell is he doing here?'

He then noticed that both men, Ebisu and Yutaka, had their backs facing him, and fronts facing the opposite diraction. Meaning the cell in front of Kakuzu's. Which meant that...

'...They are looking at Hidan...'

...Which meant that...

'...They were speaking about Hidan...'

Flashback

''So, you got him?''

''Yes. He's right here.''

''Hm...I'm coming back to check eventually.''

''As you wish, Yutaka-sama.''

End flashback

Why would Yutaka want Hidan to be jailed? And from what Kakuzu heard and witnessed at Toru's, Yutaka was a very busy man. He was rarely home, and the only time Kakuzu ever saw him home was when he stormed into the kitchen and whispered something to his wife. Toru's family was rich, but not exactly. Rich was an overstatement, but not an understatement either. Toru's father was always working to keep the family's finance as it was now. So, he was a very busy man.

So why would he ''come back to check eventually'' and waste his valuable time to check for a prisoner?

But still, Hidan wasn't any prisoner. He came from a very powerful family, which was the head family in the village of Hotsprings. Not only that, he was the heir of that family, not to mention the saint of it's religion, which was the family itself.

Kakuzu decided not to poke his nose into something that wasn't his business. After all, he barely knew the Jashinist, and he wasn't planning to befriend him anytime soon. The only reason that Kakuzu was in talking terms with the immortal was because he wanted to know what the Jashinist wanted from him so that the silver haired male could leave him alone already. But unfortunately, but not surprisingly, his bad luck kicked in again and decided to involve him in something he wasn't involved in, and made sure he ended up in jail.

Someone up there must really dislike him...

Maybe it was that damn Jashin...

Though he thought that Jashin belonged underground...

Because his ''saint'' was like the spawn of the Devil...

Yutaka's voice made the stitched male snap back from his thoughts. ''Make sure he stays here no matter what. If anyone of his family finds out and comes here, deny it. I don't want him escaping. And if that happens, I'll make sure your punishment will be worse that death. Understand?''

''Y-yes, Yutaka-sama.'' Ebisu stuttered.

''Good. I expect him to be here until the Jashin religion's people notice his absence and announce the award.'' Kakuzu frowned. Award...?

''As you wish, Yutaka-sama.''

Kakuzu stared at their backs, when suddenly he saw Yutaka's head move, and he managed to turn his head back before the man caught sight of him. If Yutaka found out that he was here...No, he wasn't afraid of the man. He could easily kill him. But what frightened him is that if the man found out that he had been in prison, the man may force Toru to break up with him, which would lead to the stiched male's death by his parents because Toru was the only one that wanted him. Or worse yet, Yutaka might directly tell his parents, which would lead to worse than death to Kakuzu. Don't misunderstand, he could still kill the man, but something inside him told him that Toru would find out and break up with him, which would, of course, end up with him being skinned alive by his parents. Even if Kakuzu could kill them too, he would never. After all, he still loved his family...

And...Something inside him told him that he wasn't fond of the thought of Toru breaking up with him...

He let out the breath he was unconsciously holding as he heard the metal door close. He waited a few seconds to make sure they were really out, and turned around to stare at Hidan when he was sure.

The Jashinist was sleeping. With an angelic and peaceful expression on his face.

...Though the Jashinist's loud snoring wasn't complimenting the expression.

...And the fact that the immortal was anything but angelic and peaceful wasn't complimenting the expression either.

But Kakuzu had to admit that the immortal was breathtakingly gorgeous...

WAIT...W-what? Did he just think that...that thing...was gorgeous? Sure, his looks were nice. Very nice, indeed. But his personality was dog shit. Kakuzu would never feel attracted to...

NO! N-not that he even thinks he will! That though was out of the question. There was no way he would feel such a thing for anybody...Okay, maybe Toru, but still...

He quickly shook the disturbing thoughts off of his head, thinking that he must be sleepy. He almost took another glance at the sleeping saint but stopped himself at the last moment. Yes, maybe Kakuzu though that the immortal was good looking, but that didn't mean he felt anything but hatred and annoyance towards him. And who could blame Kakuzu? There were tons of girls and even boys that worship the silver haired Jashinist's looks, but even if Kakuzu may have admitted that the immortal was hot, he didn't give a damn about him. Yes, that's right. Those fans of his are no lifers...

He shook his head again, wanting to clear up his mind. Minutes had gone by when he finally fell asleep, in a more comfortable bed than the one he owned in his home...

000

Takeshi was now very worried. He had already looked around half of Konoha, but still, no sign of Hidan. Where could the idiot be? It was night, and very late that even Takeshi would have to get back home, where his mother would probably scold him for coming back so late...

Oh...His parents. How would he tell them about Hidan? How would they react? Takeshi knew that his parents loved and treasured Hidan even more than himself. They would freak out...

But he had no other choice, had he? He would have to go back home and tell them. Even if he stayed and kept looking for his brother, it would be much harder to see since it was pitch black, and he was very tired...

He decided to look for Hidan early the next day. He swore that he would spend the entire day looking for his little brother, and headed back towards his car, all the while thinking of a way to tell his parents without it sounding too bad, and of course, he was thinking of places that he would have to look around the next day...

000

Toru was laying on his bed, tired and sleepy. Yet still, he wasn't asleep. He couldn't sleep. Something was bugging him. He didn't know why, but he had a feeling that something bad was up. He shook his head, thinking it was just a feeling that maybe his dad has lost in whatever country he was in again...

His dad...Every time Toru thought about his dad, a wave of sadness hit him. He rarely talked to his father, and when he talked to him, it was either about his grades in school or how his relationship with Kakuzu was going.

Not that his father even cared...

All he cared about was the Himura family and his own family's relationship. That relationship would grow stronger once Toru and Kakuzu get married, which would bring the Aumori family more reputation and power, since the Himura family was richer and more powerful than the Aumori.

But that didn't mean that Toru cared about that.

The brown haired male couldn't wait for the day he and Kakuzu finally wed. He knew that Kakuzu was a little uncomfortable with him, but he also knew that Kakuzu loved him. He understood why the stitched male was uncomfortable. Kakuzu had never been loved that much, let alone been loved the way Toru loved him. He knew that Kakuzu was afraid that he only pretended to love him for the relationship with the Himura family, since the stitched man thought everybody hated him. Toru was aware of how Kakuzu's family treated him, and he was planning to move with Kakuzu away to another country once they get married. He was very angry knowing that Kakuzu's family treat him that way because of his abnormality, and he only put up with them because of the fact that his father would kill him if he protested.

Kakuzu's abnormalities...

Toru was awestruck once he first saw the stitched male, sitting alone in the kitchen when Toru and his family visited the Himura. The brown haired man couldn't believe how people disliked Kakuzu. He was unique. How didn't people realize that normal persons would have died before they got such stitches? It was a mystery how Kakuzu survived, but Toru didn't ask him about it since he knew that Kakuzu rather not talk about it. And the stitched male's eyes... Toru felt like killing the people that looks at them with disgust or/and shock. Yes, he knew that Kakuzu could easily do it himself, but he didn't. He never did. People doesn't see how normal Kakuzu actually was on the inside. People may think that he had no heart since he obviously didn't look normal, but on the inside, Kakuzu was as human and normal as everyone else. He feared being hated, just like every other person on the planet. He actually feared hatred even more than most people, because even his own family hated him. Toru wondered how many people actually felt something positive about Kakuzu for once, because he knew that Kakuzu still loved his family, regardless of the treatment and hate he received from them.

That was why Toru fell for Kakuzu.

He didn't care about how he looked. He was amazed by his personality and kindness. Kakuzu, unlike what his looks told, cared about what people thought of him, because he needed someone to love him. That was why Kakuzu feared the hate people sent him. He knew Kakuzu was very thankful that he finally had someone that cared about him, and that was Toru.

The black eyed man smiled to himself.

He finally decided that he will talk with his father about the marriage.

And decided that the marriage will be soon.

''This food fuckin' stinks! Is that even food? Look at it, dammit! It looks like fucking shit!''

Hidan couldn't believe it. He, the awesome immortal saint, was expected to eat food that even a pig wouldn't eat.

He glanced at Kakuzu, who was looking at the plate handed to him, and also had the same look as the Jashinist.

The prison smelled like vomit and dung mixed with cat piss, and the smell was coming from every cell, caused by the very food that every prisoner had to eat, including the almighty Hidan...

''HOW FUCKING DARE YOU? GIVING ME THIS CRAP! MAY JASHIN-SAMA SMITE YOUR SHITTY ASSES! YOU FILTHY FUCKING HEATHENS! I'LL BE DAMNED IF I EAT THIS PIECE OF SHIT YOU CALL FOOD! JUST WAIT YOU FUCKING-''

''Shut. The fuck. UP!'' Kakuzu growled loudly. He'll be damned if he let the silver haired maniac cause yet another fit.

''But, look at this shit! How are we supposed to eat this?'' The Jashinist said, pointing at the cursed crap.

''Then don't eat it.'' Was Kakuzu's simple reply. He already planned on not eating anything handed to him by the guards, even if it was normal looking food. It may contain poison, because, after all, no one knows what the ''food'' they hand out is made out of.

''But I'm fucking hungry!'' Hidan whined.

''Deal with it, unless you want to eat that thing. And shut up. Your acting like a spoiled brat. Oh wait...You are a spoiled brat.'' Kakuzu said with sarcasm, and hidden amusement. It was actually fun talking (arguing) with the Jashinist.

''I'm not a fucking brat! And no way in hell I'm eating their diarrhea! And wow, you hide your amusement pretty well.'' Hidan smirked. So Kakuzu actually found it amusing talking (arguing) with him? Things are improving...

Kakuzu frowned. How in the hell did that twerp know? Kakuzu always thought that he was very good in hiding his emotions(1), such as amusement. ''Whatever...'' He said, turning back to stare at the wall. He didn't want to talk to the Jashinist. He didn't want to be his friend. He didn't want to like him...Right?

Hidan scowled. Why, oh why, was Kakuzu such a cranky sourpuss? He acts like a grouchy old man. Though the Jashinist was still happy that Kakuzu found him amusing. At least he was smiling...

Wait...SMILING!

''YOUR SMILING!'' Hidan shouted.

Kakuzu cursed under his breath. He should have hidden his face somewhere! He couldn't help but smile when he saw the expression on the Jashinist's face, but quickly turned around to prevent him from seeing the smile. He tried to hide it, but unfortunately, he was late.

He sighed. ''Yes, I am smiling. You have a problem with that?'' Kakuzu glared.

''Uh...You're actually scary when you glare... And OF COURSE no! This is special! I mean this is the first time I ever saw you smiling! You should smile more often!'' Hidan said, grinning like the idiot he was.

Kakuzu's eyes widen.

Flashback

''So what's the occasion?''

''Occasion? What occasion?''

''There has to be some sort of special thing happening today! I mean, your actually talking to me! And greeted! And smiled even!''

''Is there something wrong with that?''

''Wrong? No dammit! It's great! You should smile more often!''

End flashback

He wondered if Toru realized that he wasn't at home. Maybe Toru visited his house, but didn't find him, and now he was looking for him. Or maybe he hasn't done his daily visit yet. Or worse...Maybe he knew Kakuzu wasn't there, or knew that he was in jail, but didn't try to look for him or rescue him...

No, Toru wasn't like that. Kakuzu knew that the black eyed man was kinder than that.

''Hey! Kakuzu! You hear me? HEY!''

Kakuzu snapped back from his thoughts. He looked at Hidan.

''What?''

''You were spacing out. Did you hear what I was saying?''

''No.''

''Oh. Then listen cause this is a very exciting one! Once upon a time, Pinocchio dolls invaded the world. And every damn second, a new doll was born...uh..I mean created. And one of these unfortunate seconds, a certain doll was born...argh...created. And they called it Sasori. After some while, Barbie dolls kicked the Pinocchio dolls' asses and took over the world. And their leader was a Barbie doll named Deidara. You see, Deida-''

''I don't want to hear your stupid story! What are you? Five?'' Forget the amusement. Kakuzu hated such stories.

''What? It's not a story! I mean, the characters fucking exist! Barbie and Pinocchio dolls exist! And Sasori and Deidara too! Though they are both fucking bastards. Especially that damn ass Deidara. He's fucking threatening to blackmail me with that video he taped when your sister was showing how much she sucks at dancing, stepping on my fucking foot! And I was fucking unwilling! Freedom, people! Find out what that is! THIS IS HARASSMENT! FUCKING HARASSMENT! OPEN UP THE DAMN BAAAAARS!''

Kakuzu sighed. He really regretted ever calling the Jashinist and agreeing to meet him...

Takeshi immediately jumped out of bed when his alarm clock beeped. He was going to spend the entire day looking for his brother. And he will find him. No matter what. Not only because of his love for his brother, but for the sake of his parents.

Flashback

Takeshi sighed, looking at the floor rather than his mother's and father's worried faces.

''I looked in half of Konoha. He wasn't there. I asked the citizens and looked in their houses, but I didn't find him. The only thing I found of him is his rosary, and you know he never takes it off no mater what. I don't think I have to tell you what I assume happened...''

His mother started crying, and his dad hugged her, trying to comfort her. He was too very worried. What could've happened to Hidan? He knew that Hidan wasn't dead, it was impossible since he was immortal. So what could have happened? Was he lost in the part in Konoha that Takeshi hadn't looked in? Was he kidnapped? Maybe he just happened to drop his rosary and nothing serious happened...?

No, Hidan treasured his rosary more than anything else he owned. There was no way that he would let it leave his neck for the shortest second...

''Takeshi.'' Osamu said, looking at his sobbing wife.

''Yes, father?'' Takeshi said, not looking up from the floor.

''I want you to inform every citizen in Konoha, that anyone who finds him and brings him back, will earn an award of ten million Yen.''

Takeshi's eyes widen. Ten million Yen? Wasn't that too much...?

He mentally slapped himself. How could he think such a thing? It was for Hidan! Who cares how much money? The only thing he should care about was finding Hidan.

He cursed himself. ''Alright, father.''

End flashback

He still hated himself for thinking about the money like that. He would give everything he had just to find his little brother.

Konoha was already informed about the award, since he picked some shinobi from the Jashin people and ordered them to inform every Konoha villager. Now all he had to do was keep looking...

He quickly finished his breakfast, kissed his still crying mother on the forehead and told her that he will find Hidan, and ran towards his car, determined to get Hidan back home as fast as possible.

End chapter 6

I think you now know what Yutaka is planning? ;) But don't worry, Kuzu will eventually stop him (He have to. Yen, people! You thing Kakuzu, the money obsessed Kakuzu, would miss such an opportunity? XD)

And I'm not an expert at Yen and Dollars and money and such. So I don't know if ten million Yen is the ''right'' amount for such awards :L

This chapter was kind of long XD Not that I'm not happy :D I actually managed to write a long chapter? HELL YES! è,é

(1): I always wondered if amusement is an emotion (I know I sound pretty stupid for those who knows, but really, I don't know it!) :o If you know, I'll appreciate it if you tell me :)

THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO IS FOLLOWING THIS STORY! And I'll love you even more if you leave a review! I know I am review addicted but I can't help it. SO PLEAAAAASE! Even the smallest little review would be greately appreciated!
