Chapter 12: Bounty Hunt
"Where are we heading to?" Jonathan asked.
"Temple of fire." Kakuzu answered.
"Do we have a plan?" Regina asked.
"This time round three of you will be the ones to kill." Hidan replied.
"What will you two be doing then?" Rebecca asked.
"Nothing." Kakuzu answered.
"What!? That's so unfair. You were the ones who wanted to kill him." Regina complained.
"Pein's instructions. Complain in his presence then."
"Are you sure that's Pein's instructions? I'll ask him later." Jonathan shouted.
"Whatever and don't shout. Hurry and finish up early." Kakuzu was checking his ear if he had gone deaf.
At the temple of fire
"We'll wait for you outside the entrance. After killing him bring the body along with you. Remember not to damage the body too badly. We might not be able to get the bounty if he can't be recognised." Kakuzu instructed.
"Okay. But can you at least break down the door or something?" Rebecca asked.
"Oh right." Kakuzu realised a seal has been placed on the statues flanking the door to form a barrier on the door. Kakuzu use the Earth Spear jutsu and smashed the door down.
"Wow, the door Super thick! It's even thicker than Rebecca's height." Jonathan exclaimed.
"Are you calling me short? I've already grown taller throughout the years." Rebecca shouted at Jonathan attempting to strangle him.
"Stop it and hurry in."Kakuzu stopped Rebecca.
When they went in their target was already standing in front of them with the rest of the monks behind him.
"I'm not going to do the killing. I'll only help to weaken or subdue him." Rebecca informed.
"Alright." Regina agreed.
"Hey Chiriku! Roll over and let us capture you!"Jonathan shouted.
Regina looked at Jonathan in bewilderment while Jonathan looked proud of himself.
"Jonathan!" Regina exclaimed.
"Well it's worth a try." Jonathan explained. "We'll leave the rest of the monks unharmed if you come with us peacefully."
"That's so not going to work." Rebecca mumbled.
"Do I look like an idiot to you?" Chiriku looked insulted.
"Yeah, totally." Jonathan smiled brightly at him.
"Now he's done it." Regina slapped her forehead in frustration.
"Oh let's just get this over and done with." Rebecca took out her sword, took position and attacked. Regina and Jonathan did the same thing and charged forward but they were stopped by the monks who were about to attack too.
Jonathan made use of his wind element to wipe out the monks to the other further end of the temple. That cleared the way to Chiriku
Rebecca took this chance to drown Chiriku and Jonathan freezes the water with cold wind. Regina heats up the ice so that it is easier to remove the ice berg with Chiriku in it.
Just when they were about to leave, the monks were heading their way and Regina creates a fire ball using Goukakyuu no Jutsu to burn the temple as well as the monks.
When they meet up with Kakuzu and Hidan, Kakuzu went up to check the condition of Chiriku's body.
"Well there you go he's in perfect condition aside from the fact that he's in an ice berg." Jonathan pushed the ice berg to him.
"Ya, he's in perfect condition so aren't we entitled to get half the money?"Jonathan asked.
"We should get going before the fire approaches." Kakuzu started going off.
"Hey how about the money? Don't avoid the question!" Jonathan shouted.
"Forget it kid, you'll never be getting anything out of him." Hidan said.
"Who are you calling kid?" Jonathan shouted.
"Er...like you, duh."
"That's it. Let's take it outside."
"We're already outside. Dumb."
"Who are you calling dumb? The only people to call me dumb are my sisters!"
"Oh then let me rephrase that. Idiot."
"Who are you calling idiot? The only people to call me idiot are my sisters!"
"Shut up Jonathan. You're hurting my ears." Regina glared at Jonathan.
"Fine." Jonathan kept quiet all the way
"Oh and earlier on, you don't just get any guy to 'roll over', like that would ever happen. It's like the dumbest thing to do ever."
"Oh isn't it just so him?" Rebecca interrupted.
"That's so true."
At the morgue
"We're not going in to the male toilet." Regina and Rebecca said in unison.
"I'm not urgent too." Jonathan refused to enter after smelling the pungent smell of the toilet.
"Fine have it your way." Kakuzu replied and went in with Hidan.
Five minutes after they went in, Hidan came out smelling very badly while Kakuzu was still inside counting his money.
"Ew you smell Really, really bad." Jonathan pinched his nose in disgust.
"Shut up." Hidan mumbled.
Shikamaru captured Hidan with his shadow possession jutsu and Kotetsu together with Izumo tried to kill Hidan. They thought they managed to kill Hidan and Shikamaru said, "That's one down."
"Ouch, that hurts." Hidan said.
Kotetsu and Izumo looked shocked at Hidan when Kakuzu came out and punched Shikamaru thus releasing the shadow possession jutsu.
Asuma appeared out of no where and started attacking Hidan.
"Well, Hidan… Looks like you've hit the jackpot for once." Kakuzu said, with a smirk under his mask.
"DON'T YOU DARE TOUCH THEM!" Hidan screamed, pointing his scythe at Kakuzu. "They're for my ritual. But you can have the money."
"Fine, whatever you want. But don't let your guard down or you'll die." Kakuzu warned.
"Every damn time…"
Hidan made a circle with an inverted triangle in it with his blood dripping from his wound. Hidan tried to get Asuma's blood to activate the curse.
Hidan swung his scythe and cut Asuma's face. Hidan licked off Asuma's blood from the scythe and stepped into the symbol of Jashin. Asuma ran after Hidan using the Haisekishouand burn Hidan but because Hidan was already in the symbol of Jashin, Asuma got burned as well.
After Asuma and Hidan got burned, Asuma ran towards Hidan to attack him and Hidan used his scythe to stab his leg and Asuma fell flat on his face and press on the wound that appeared on his leg.
"Er...you know the leader's going to get mad at us if we don't hurry." Regina interrupted the fight.
"Ya Hidan, we can always get him later." Kakuzu agreed.
"Then what? Let them get away?" Hidan shouted back.
"They're from the Hidden Village of Leaf right? You can always go there and find for them." Jonathan said.
"Wow Jon, when did you become so smart?" Regina and Rebecca said.
"Fine." Hidan gave up and use the Shunshin no Jutsu. Kakuzu, Regina and Jonathan followed suit. Rebecca uses her water jutsu to wash away the symbol of Jashin before going too.
