Hi, I'm back. It's 10:26 PM and my parents still aren't home!

The three continued walking through the desert in dog form. Konan kept an eye on Hidan, because he wasn't acting normal at all. He was walking ahead and kept his mouth shut. He didn't even complain.
"Hidan, you okay?"
Konan asked.
"Just fine, stop worrien'."
Hidan said as they continued walking. They entered the village quietly and looked around. Night had fallen and it was COLD. Konan shivered. She hated the desert because day was hot and night was cold. 'F*ck it.' Konan thought and shivered again. They saw a few lights illuminate houses and kids sitting around in a circle with their family. Konan sighed, she missed the Akatsuki. They were her 'family'. Konan sighed again and looked up at the dark night sky. The quiet was uncomfortable for once. For years in the Akatsuki she's been asking for quiet and here she got it, but it wasn't the kind she wanted. Konan focused on the streets once more. That Gaara kid died for a mysterious reason and this time it wasn't Sasori. The Biju had escaped when the Akatsuki died down to few members. The Shukaku was then sealed into another host. The security was low ever since the Akatsuki disappeared. It wasn't too hard to get in. The three walked into some ones yard and a teenaged boy walked out. He had messy brown and he wore original shinobi gear.
"Hey dogs."
He said. Konan sat and yawned. He looked at the three.
"Then name's Jake."
He said.
"I'm the 'freak' of the village for having this so called Shukaku sealed in me."
He continued and reached out to pet Konan.
"I just need some friends is all."
Jake said and reached to pet Kakuzu.
"I know everyone is different, but they treat me like dirt."
Jake continued and started to pet Hidan.
"Wanna be friends?"
He asked after pulling his hand back. Konan approached him and barked the best way possible.
"Quiet, my mom will hear you."
Jake whispered. Jake looked at Konan in the eyes.
"You seem nice. You've got some sadness in you though. What happened? I know dogs can't talk, but at least I can talk to them. At least you're listening right?"
Jake said and Konan wagged her tail. She turned her head to look at Kakuzu who was looking up at the starry sky. Konan looked up and admired its beauty. The sky was so free, so peaceful. It didn't go against anything. Konan knew that the sky couldn't talk, but she believed that it was watching over them. Jake walked back into his house.
"I'll be back."
He said and closed the door. Konan turned to Kakuzu.
"He's actually kinda nice. Sad that he's in this situation, I mean, be have to kill him and the Biju in him."
Konan said. Hidan yawned.
"Sorry, but we need to kill him."
Hidan said. Konan sighed.
"I just hate this. We need all of the Akatsuki."
Konan said with sadness in her voice.
"You okay?"
Kakuzu asked.
"Yeah…just a little sad about everyone dying."
She said. Kakuzu lay down on the ground and rested his head on his paws.
"Too bad that we can't get all of them."
He said. Then Jake reappeared from his house with some food.
"Sorry it took a while, here."
He said as he set down three chunks of meat on the ground. Konan gave it a careful sniff and ate it slowly. Kakuzu and Hidan did the same. Jake smiled and walked back into his house.
"See you in the morning."
He said.

A week had passed and that night would be one the three wouldn't forget. They were walking into the forest. They had decided to sleep in the forest and Jake knew about it. It was almost night time and it was a full moon. Konan looked up at the sky.
"It's gonna be a full moon tonight."
Konan said and looked at them. Kakuzu sat on the ground.
"What's so great about the moon?"
Hidan asked.
"So? It's beautiful and we're in a tight situation here."
Konan said.
"Okay, okay."
Hidan said.
One hour had passed and the full moon shone bright in the sky. Konan looked up at it and smiled. Then a loud crash could be heard in the small open field part of the forest that rested behind Konan. She slowly approached the field and gasped. Hidan stood in the middle of the field, fur rose as high as possible, lips curled showing fangs and his eyes were red. Hidan growled and drool slowly dripped from his mouth and he looked at Konan, who flinched from the look in his eyes. Huno had done that. That wind clone had fused into Hidan and taken over his body. That was why he was acting so different. Kakuzu walked up to the scene.
"What the heck?"
He asked confused as he looked at the crazed Hidan. Hidan looked at the two and charged. Kakuzu jumped back and sent threads in Hidans direction. Hidan angrily opened his mouth, fangs much sharper that usual and clamped down on the threads. Kakuzu growled and charged. Hidan growled and charged again. Kakuzu jumped over Hidan.
"Konan!"
He called and Konan sent paper shuriken at Hidan. Hidan growled and his body started turning into the wind clone. Kakuzu quickly took the time to hold 'Hidan' down with the threads. They wrapped around Hidans legs as the clone roared angrily. Konan jumped into the air and placed a paw on the clones' forehead. Wind dangerously whipped up and blew in every direction. 'Hidan' stood up on his hind legs and raised a paw, claws sharpened and swiped at Konan. Konan jumped back, only getting a small slit on her nose. The clone growled and rested back on its four paws. Kakuzu tried to hold the clone down for more time, but it freed itself and charged at Konan. Konans eyes widened as the clone raised its paw again and growled angrily as it swiped its paw. Konan was slashed across her face, four claw marks on her face. Konan yelped and stumbled back. 'Hidan' growled and charged again. Kakuzu jumped in front of the clone and growled angrily. The clone stopped and smirked. Then Kakuzu and Konan could hear Hunos voice.
"Whenever the full moon shines, your friend will lose control."
He said. Kakuzu growled.
"Show yourself!"
He barked.
"I'm not here."
Kakuzu then looked at the clone as it spoke.
"My master Huno has sent me to take care of some business."
The clone said. The clone smirked and lied on the ground, gaining original color. Hidan slowly stood up.
"Owww…what the f*ck happened?"
He asked. That was normal Hidan. Kakuzu looked over his shoulder and saw Konans wounds weren't bleeding. Just scratch marks. He then turned to face Hidan, who was walking up to the two. Konan jumped right up and was ready for another fight. Hidan stopped.
"What's up with you?"
He asked. Konan growled. Hidan saw Konans large wounds and his eyes widened.
"Who…?"
He started.
"You did it."
Konan said. Hidan was shocked.
"What?"
He asked. Konan sighed.
"You did it."
She repeated a little more slowly. Hidan looked away.
"Why?"
He asked and looked at them.
"Why did I?"
He asked.
"It's not your fault."
Konan said.
"Where are we?"
He asked, finally noticing his surroundings.
"I guess that clone knocked him out the minute it bit him. He was out for the time."
Kakuzu muttered to Konan.
"What?"
Hidan said.
"Hidan, do you remember that wind clone?"
Kakuzu asked, taking a step foreword.
"Whoa, what's up with the CSI act?"
Hidan asked.
"I'm not making it a CSI act. But do you remember that wind clone you fought?"
Kakuzu asked.
"Yeah…"
Hidan said.
"Do you remember being bit by it?"
Kakuzu asked.
"Yeah, but if you're going to go any farther than that then I don't remember the rest."
Hidan said.
"That's because your body was taken over by the clone."
Kakuzu said. Hidan froze.
"What?"
He asked.
"You were out for a week Hidan. The wind clone controlled your body the minute you passed out from the fusion."
Kakuzu said. Konan looked at Hidan.
"I missed your old self."
She said and licked his nose.
"Oh come on, don't get all mushy on me."
Hidan said. Konan sat and smiled.
"Hey, the original you is way better than that wind clone."
Konan said with a wag of her tail.
"We made a new friend. He's the Shukaku kid. Not Gaara though, he's dead. He doesn't know we can talk human so lets keep our mouths shut okay?"
Kakuzu explained.
"Okay."
Hidan said.
"So, why did I hurt you Konan?"
Hidan asked.
"Don't worry, it wasn't you. It was that wind clone. But wherever there's a full moon, you'll attack us in the wind state."
Konan said.
"Okay, but I'm gonna have to beat that f*ckn' clone until it begs for mercy."
Hidan said with a smirk.
"Okay."
Konan said with a smile.
"Well lets get some sleep and have you actually meet Jake tomorrow okay?"
Kakuzu said. Hidan nodded and let Konan lead him to their small sleeping space in the forest.
"Good night you two."
Konan said.
