( I'm surprised I was able to get ch.2 done ^_^ so funny story I did this weird hack where I had my writing turned to speech and I laughed more than I should but it helped me catch alot more errors...probably)
Six hours passed before Hidan was finally able to move after ingesting Seku's blood. The male was lying on the ground staring up at the sky. It was still nightfall but over in the far reaches of the skyline the sun could be seen. Seku was resting against a tree while Kakuzu counted the money he had obtained before tracking down Seku.
"Dammit, how long was I out?" Hidan asked.
He sat up rubbing the back of his head His memory was foggy and he couldn't recall falling asleep after Kakuzu had wrapped him up in his strings. Not much came to his mind because every part of him was numb but a sudden recollection of Kakuzu's fist flying at him popped up in his mind. Realizing what he had done Hidan stood up and looked at Kakuzu pointing at him.
"YOU ASSHOLE! YOU KNOCKED ME OUT!" Hidan shouted.
Kakuzu paid no mine to Hidan's outburst, patting his stacked bills on the ground to even out any uneven bill before putting a band around them. He had only knocked Hidan out after about an hour of his whining and complaining so that he could interrogate the new recruit without Hidan's mouth.
"You lost the bet, Seku" Kakuzu said.
Hidan looked over at the tree, Seku, who was just second ago asleep was now wide awake. Without saying a word she reached inside her kimono and pulled out a small wad of cash, throwing it at Kakuzu he didn't even bother looking as a strand of strings sprung out, catching the money and placing it to a stack he had not yet counted before residing back inside his body.
"You two made a bet on how long I would be out?!"
"More like how long the toxins would last. I lost by 4 hours, but He wouldn't have humored me unless I played with some serious cash." Seku said
Hidan listened as Seku began to explained what exactly her blood had done to him. Simplified just for him she told him that her blood had its own defense mechanism. If her blood manages to make its way into her opponent's body; not just by ingesting, but by open wounds and various sorts then what normally is suppose to happen is the person dies after being a couple hours.
"Buuut, since you're immortal what happened to you is just feeling the pain of your nerves and organs rotting that usually happens shortly after they die."
"I can see why pain wants her, but what about that weird purple light?" He asked
"I'm not going to tell you everything, I told you the same info I told your partner." she said
Pouting to himself Hidan reached for his scythe that was on the ground next to him. He cut his hand spilling his blood on the ground, drawing his cursed symbol he laid back down in the center before stabbing himself with his spear. Now the one confused and curious Seku was wondering what he was doing as she stared at him. Hidan glanced briefly at her before closing his eyes to pray.
"What? I'm not going to tell you everything." Hidan mocked
"Are you fucking 12?" Seku said irritated
Ignoring her to pray to his God, Seku looked at Kakuzu who was now done with counting his money. Switching it out for his bingo book he started to flip through it looking for new bounties. She sighed leaning back against the tree closing her eyes. Thinking to herself that Hidan had a lot of mental issues to flip like that, trying to kill her one moment and then acting like a spoiled brat the next. Their moment of peace only lasted roughly ten minutes as soon shurikens and kunais were thrown at them. Seku and Kakuzu moved to dodge while Hidan stayed in his circle, but the sound of weapons hitting the ground made him stop mid-ceremony to open his eyes. The three were soon surrounded by six shinobis. Seku moved away closer to the center. However, all six had their eyes on Kakuzu.
"So, what did you do wrong?" Seku asked
"Kakuzu's greedy ass collected a well-known member of their group for his bounty." Hidan said
Getting off the ground he cracked his neck meeting up with the other two in the center. The six shinobis closed in on them as they prepared for a fight.
"We will avenge our brethren" one announced.
"More like you sinners will be joining him. Lord Jashin has spoken. He'll take all of you so get ready" Hidan spoke.
There's that Jashin thing again Seku thought. The mentioned when they fought when he was going berserk, and Kakuzu did say he was on the religious side, but Hidan appeared more extreme then what Seku was used to or have ever witnessed. Kinda annoying really.
"WanWan *barking*" she muttered
Hearing her voice Hidan looked at Seku; Seku not realizing that she had been staring at him when she had spoken or realized that she had said what she had said out loud. Pointing his scythe at her he growled.
"What you say?!"
"What I said? You mean WanWan? It's the sound of a dog barking right? And you yapping about Jashin made me think of a that." She said
"You heretic wench don't you even speak of Lord Jashin's name so casually."
"Jaaaaaashiiiiiin" Seku said in a lazy manner
"LISTEN HERE-"
"Enough already, both of you just shut up!" Kakuzu said.
Seku and Hidan looked at Kakuzu for a moment and then back to their opponents, all furious from being so easily ignored they all charged in at once. Separating the three into opposite directions.
"Seriously though, I had no part on his plan I literally just joined them." she said
"Then you can die with them" one of her attackers spoke
"Not interested"
She reached behind and pulled out her Naginata though invisible to them. They laughed thinking she had no weapons on her person.
"Going to try and defeat us with air?" The other asked.
Seku chuckled and swung her weapon. With no intentions of dodging the two were surprised when their vests and clothing were suddenly cut, blood trickling from the light cut her blade had made across their chest. Still invisible she held it by her side. The attackers jumped further back from Seku pulling out more of their weapons preparing for another attack.
"You know I think almost every ninja thinks that their opponents are stupid or weak, and sometimes they are. What I don't get is that after so many weak opponents the victors act like their next opponent isn't any different so they automatically doubt them and their abilities. You guys thought I was just pantomiming a weapon to swing but now you know better." She said
"Are you seriously lecturing us?" One spoke
"I'm not really sure, but that wasn't my intentions."
Lowering her weapon Seku charged at the two throwing her arm back she swung down at the two, both dodging as the blade causes a small crater in the ground the weapon visually flickering from the strong impact to the ground. The two moved to the opposite side of Seku, throwing their kunais. Seku picked up her weapon and at a sacrifice took one kunai to her left shoulder to block the one coming from her right, but in the same move she lifted her naginata and swung once more. Further back then what the weapon could reach the male smiled, but it wasn't a lasting expression. He gasped in a sudden pain as he felt the blade strike his stomach. He fell to the ground with a thud and his partner was left in shock. Staring down at her hand he noticed she wasn't holding anything her hand was fully closed. She had thrown her weapon at his partner, but now she was left with no weapon, he knew he could take her out before she could retrieve her naginata, pulling out his last kunai. Seku turned looked at him as he charged.
From where Kakuzu and Hidan were a scream was heard, having finished off their attackers Hidan was laying back in his circle while Kakuzu removed the hearts. Since it wasn't a girl screaming they knew it wasn't Seku.
"Well, she's still alive." Hidan said
Seku rejoined the two shortly after. In her arms, she carried clothes that she had removed from her attackers. Her kimono had gotten more torn around her waist the fabric stained with blood.
"Well look at that she's might die on us, hmph and after that tough talk." Hidan said.
"Shut up, it's not mine." She said
"That's a pretty nasty close call, they tried cutting you in half." He said.
"It wasn't from them Wanwan."
Hidan snarled being called Wanwan standing up from his circle he started to walk over to her. Seku watched as he approached her. Reaching for his scythe. Seku rolled her eyes and without warning removed her top. Hidan paused as he was now staring at a partially naked female. The "partially" part being that her chest was bound by bandages, but now he could see that the tattooed markings covered most of her chest and around her waist was more black markings that looked like rope, or possibly a tail.
"You're staring Hidan." Kakuzu said
"Oi, Oi it's not my fault. This walking blasphemist started stripping like some loose whore."
He turned his head as Seku grabbed the shirt, Since the male, she stole it from was larger then her she had to rip some of the material and tie it for it to fit her but because of the cut from her first swing, there was a small gap flashing some of her tattoo markings. Before all this had started she did have a bag with a change of clothes but because Kakuzu and Hidan kept chasing her she left it behind prior to joining them.
"The only thing loose here is your mouth and the screws in your head. And unless you're going to be a gentleman and let me wear your cloak so I don't have to do this then be quiet." She replied.
Hidan turned to retaliate but stopped when Seku removed the lower half to her kimono, of course, she was covered but it still made the reaper face turn red. Seku didn't seem to be bothered by it, In fact, she seemed comfortable with changing in front of guys.
"You have no shame."
"I have no clothes, and I'm not going around in a torn kimono, running through the woods it would work its way down and I would probably trip." She said
After making the adjustments she needed Seku was ready to leave. The three took off as the light from the rising sun started to shine through the trees. If they all kept a steady pace they would be back at the base within a weeks time surely. Kakuzu in the lead Seku kept her speed to match his. Hidan stayed in back the whole time he was staring at Seku. Being a "virtuous" man he had better things to have his mind on then Seku's tattooed body, but what kept bugging him was that her kimono was torn and stained with blood at the waist, and the blood wasn't even hers, nor did she have any wounds or cust where the tear was, and under her bust was something that looked like a black diamond.
