Chapter 17: "The Second First Impression"

'Jashin-sama, I am forever grateful to you for saving me from that hell hole, one day I will repay you with the sacrifice of that piece of shit that put me there in the first place, but for now I'll have to sacrifice meager souls to you until I can get my ultimate revenge'.

Walking outside his door he noticed the halls were dark, the only light was a small candle in the restroom across the hall. He also noticed the floor had six bedrooms, with three on each side of the hall, his being the one closest to the windows. Placing the knife up his sleeve he walked to the door adjacent to his and turned the handle.

Hidan turned the doorknob with a grimace adorning his face as the hinges screamed for some well needed oil. Whoever was on the other side of the door would have had to be dead or in a comatose state to not have woken up from that noise.

Peeking inside he could barely manage to see a thing, the small candle on-top the adjacent desk had long gone burned out and only a small trail of smoke lay in its stead. Noticing the strong candle in the bathroom he made his way in that direction.

Picking up the candle the dull knife fell out of his sleeve, and made a clanking sound as it hit the floor.

'Fuck! Being sneaky isn't my thing, I should have just barged in there and performed the sacrifice even if it is pitch black, damn..I really miss my badass scythe'

Making his way back to the room he planned to paint with blood he stood by the door and let the candle illuminate as much as it could. He took in the desk, the window; the bed…Hidan smirked as he saw the person he planned to sacrifice was still fast asleep.

With a grin he lunged forward and pulled the sheets away with the dull knife only a centimeter away from his victim's face only to find his heart skip a beat at the sight, for what lay on the bed wasn't what he was expecting to see.

Dropping the knife he sat on the bed next to the sleeping girl and took in her frowning facial expression.

'Geez dipshit…seems you don't always look so nice and innocent'

Sunnora's eyes fluttered open as she felt something or someone nudge her shoulder.

"Hey dipshit wake up!"

'What the hell? Who dares try to wake me?'

"Come on! Stop being so lazy, do as I say, what..you're not going to wake up and look up at me with that goofy smile of yours anymore? I know you missed me"

Hidan kept pestering her by shaking her shoulders and to add emphasis to his point he started poking her sides.

"I won't stop until you get up"

Sunnora couldn't believe some idiot had broken into her room and was rudely trying to wake her up, with anger building inside of her she brought her arm up and punched the man straight in the face. She didn't know why she couldn't see him clearly, she could see perfectly in darkness, so why couldn't she see the man that was going to die by her hands in a few seconds?

Sunnora scoffed as she realized it must be from the consequences that came with doing the demon ritual, she looked at her hand and it only proved her theory correct because the wound was still there. The blood from the wound had seized but she could still feel the injury if she put pressure on it.

'I've become so weak it's pitiful, feeling pain from something this minor, it's almost like I'm human, the embarrassment…'

Moving her body up and in a sitting position on the bed she saw the man on the floor holding his face where she had hit him.

'That hit would have killed him if I hadn't been severely weakened by the ritual'.

"Wow dipshit! What was that for? Are you mad because I left you?"

'Does he know m-…wait did he just call me dipshit?'

Sunnora got up from the bed and sauntered over to the man on the floor.

"I dare you to repeat that again"

Hidan couldn't read the girl's expression, that mask that she kept around her neck was now covering most of her face, maybe she only places it on when she goes to sleep, 'she sure is a weird one'. Why had her demeanor taken such a drastic change? 'Does she think I betrayed her?'

The silver haired male smirked and got up, now face to face with the glaring blue eyed girl.

"Now now come on, don't get so mad at me, I only left you there because I was trying to look out for you, you did put me back together after all, it was no trouble at all, well actually it was and you should be forever grateful to me but you already knew that, you should have seen the trouble I went through to find some water".

Sunnora had no clue what this idiot was rambling on about…'why does every human I come in contact with keep talking to me as if they know me? It's pissing me off'

"I really hope you know that I don't take you walking into my room and waking me up so lightly, and I also want to let you know that I will make you pay for it with your pathetic life".

Hidan was shocked for a second at the girl's words but after a moment of silence between the two he started to laugh like a maniac.

"Wow, I almost believed you for a second there, but you can't fool me, I'm not stupid, now come on we should go already, we have somewhere to be".

Sunnora scoffed at the man's words and was about to snap his neck just to shut him up from his useless talk but her eyes widened as the man stepped forward into a view from the shadows as the candle he was holding illuminated his face quite clearly.

'That face, I would recognize it anywhere, but it can't be-'

"Hidan"

Hidan raised an eyebrow at the girl then frowned, "don't get so familiar with me, just because you're my new lackey doesn't mean you can address me without honorifics, remember, it's Hidan-sama".

'How is he in one piece? He should be in a million pieces in those woods, that's where I left him…but I do recall waking up with him being nowhere in sight…ah this is so confusing, why can't I remember anything?'

Feeling frustrated Sunnora placed her head in her hands and tried to remember anything she could about that night but it was all a blur, she remembered being sent to this human realm, the unbearable pain, the children she almost killed, talking with the priest, going back to retrieve the scroll her father assigned her, reading that said scroll and getting pissed off because she had to rescue Hidan, going to rescue the idiot, digging him up and leaving him in a pile before she almost took her frustration out on him because her father had refused to send her back home…and..and..'ughh this is so frustrating, I remember everything so clearly up to the point where I get burned alive by that unknown phenomenon'.

Hidan sighed as he saw the innocent girl turned psycho latch onto her head, and face downward. "I knew you would come around, but we don't have time for apologies, we need to go, the sun will be rising soon and we have a long walk ahead of us".

He started walking out of the room and snickered, "It really sucks having to be this responsible, I don't know how Kakuzu did it..must be an old man thing".

Sunnora snapped out of her thoughts when she heard the door close, and realized she was once again alone.

'Maybe my memory might come back if I talk to Hidan…No! That's just impossible, I can't even stand looking at the guy without my blood boiling in anger, it's not like I can even act to be nice around that bastard! I hate him'

With determination in her eyes she decided she would torture Hidan into telling her what exactly happened between the time she dug him up and she woke up in some random forest. Even if he did talk without the need for torture she would do it anyways, it wouldn't be fun without some blood being shed, a grin appeared on her face as she pictured it, 'then I'm going to do what I was planning on doing before I was almost burned alive, and that is, attempt to kill him so I can use the same method on my father'.

With a set goal in mind, Sunnora walked out of the room and tried sensing his presence but it was futile, for her demon energy was almost non-existent and her regular energy was still too low, 'bastard, I would have been feeling much stronger if I hadn't been woken up from my sleep, but he'll pay for that soon enough'.

Sunnora made her way downstairs in search for the silver haired nuisance, she clenched a dull knife she had found on the floor of her room in her uninjured hand but stopped when she spotted a familiar face.

"Oh dear, is something the matter?" the old inn owner wore a concerned expression that made the goddess cringe with distaste.

"Nothing is wrong"

Masa let out a sigh of relief at her words and quickly cheered up, "That's good to hear child, I was worried all night for you I barely slept at all".

'Well that makes two of us, stupid bastard Hidan'

"You shouldn't be up so early though dear the sun hasn't even risen yet, how about you go back upstairs to sleep and I'll fix you up something to eat, I don't usually do this but you're a special guest after all".

"Don't trouble yourself; I have no interest in your mediocre food".

Masa laughed which caught Sunnora off-guard but ignored it as she had noticed a pattern in a human's random and frankly naïve reactions, 'no wonder they are such weak creatures'.

"Did Yasu tell you that? He would insult my cooking but I assure you child, I was once a restaurant chef, I'll make sure it's delicious, you can tell me what kind of stuff you like and dislike and I'll try my best".

Masa's smile made Sunnora cringe, 'they are all fools'.

"I like bloodshed; it is what I live for, carnage and death"

Masa blinked several times trying to comprehend the words the girl had spoken and suddenly it all clicked in the old man's head.

"Ohhh~ haha you young kids and your slang, I'm an old man dear, you shouldn't use those kind of phrases with me but I understand, I'll make you a delicious juicy steak, rare of course, with all the blood and juice attached, now if you'll excuse me, I'll head to the kitchen and get started on that, you head upstairs and rest".

Sunnora was once again alone.

'What the hell just happened?'

"What do you mean Yamato-sensei? Shikamaru is down there? But I don't sense anything, how do you know for sure?" Ino was having a hard time comprehending the situation.

"Yes, for your best interest I planted small tracker seeds in your food before we left, and Shikamaru's seed is down there, along with faint signs of chakra from some other individuals"

Ino and Choji were both shocked at this news, "he could be surrounded by enemies, we have to help him", Choji was about to head in the direction of the thick fog when he was stopped by Yamato.

"Don't rush off like that Choji; I have a bad feeling about this fog"

"Could it be the enemy's ninjutsu?"

Yamato shook his head in dismissal, "no, I don't sense any chakra, it's much different but whatever it is, let's not be hasty".

Ino and Choji were both very concerned about their team partner but they knew rushing into things always made the matter worse. "Okay Yamato-sensei, what should we do?"

"Ino, I need you to use your mind transfer jutsu on one of those birds, see if you can get a better view of the situation from up above".

"Got it", Ino locked eyes with a bird that was flying just a bit ahead and took the position.

"Mind Transfer Jutsu"

Choji caught Ino's body before it hit the floor and looked up to see the bird flying in the direction above the fog, "she did it".

After watching the bird circle around the radius of the fog, the bird took a turn and kept flying away from the area, Ino's body started stirring and the two males awaited to hear what she had learned.

The blond girl's eyes opened with a startled gasp, making the other two very uneasy. "What is it Ino? What did you find?"

"Yamato-sensei, we have to help them, I saw not only Shikamaru but the other two teams that were in that room with us when we got our mission, it seems the fog covers a pretty extensive area, about a mile in radius. I tried to get a better look but I couldn't really see much, the fog was too thick, and when I tried getting a closer look I was hit with something sharp from the sky, almost scraped the bird's entire wing but I was able to dodge most of it".

Yamato frowned at the news, why were Team Kakashi and Team Gai over here in the first place? This was nowhere near the location where the incident with those kids occurred, something was off.

"Okay, Choji we have to get rid of the clouds, I have an idea, first I'm going to need you to use your multi-size jutsu followed by your human bullet tank jutsu".

Choji nodded and transformed, his whole body becoming ten times larger, he then transformed again into a huge boulder.

"Good job Choji, I'm going to create a wooden pillar to get you at the right level with those clouds, with enough rotation we should be able to move the clouds away, along with the fog, I hope you're not afraid of heights", Yamato started his jutsu after receiving a confirmatory nod from Choji.

"Ino stand back a little please", Ino jumped back and watched the whole ground level under Choji start lifting up at incredible speed until she could barely see Choji, even at his enormous size.

"Okay Choji, I'm going to grab onto you as you spin so you won't fall off, just spin at a counter-clock wise direction", Yamato yelled then extended his arms into the air as they became wood, latching onto Choji with ease he gave the signal to commence.

Choji started spinning at tremendous speed creating a huge pressure of wind to start gathering. "Wow, it's working Yamato-sensei" Ino watched from below as the clouds were being pushed away from them and in the other direction.

Yamato along with Ino gasped as the fog made way to a landscape covered in black liquid, the once green grass was completely engulfed with little traces of green left.

'What on earth could have caused this?'

I really do feel bad for Sunnora, it's like she woke up from a bad hangover and can't remember what happened the night before, only demon version lol, now let's see how light Sunnora handles all the trouble dark Sunnora caused *sigh*

Thanks for reading, now don't forget to review~
