Sorry for not posting for such a long time! School is now killing me! But it would be nice to see some reviews! Thanks! And thanks to those who did!


"Are you serious?" asked Thanerah as she was outside – for the first time without having to fear any deadly Ukrahs – with her beloved husband who was putting on some ice skaters on.

He grinned at her sheepishly, "Come on, Tha! This is going to be f**king fun! You'll see!" He tied the laces together tightly and stood up from the stone that he was sitting on. He held out Thanerah's own pair of ice skaters and waved them to her, "Come on, Tha. I know you f**king want to."

She sighed heavily as she shifted her weight on one leg and wrapped her arms around her to keep herself warm from the bitter cold. "You're beginning to sound like Tobi. You know that, right?"

His glumly stared at her and flatly said, "Please don't remind me of that annoying childish f**ker. He really gets on my nerves." He mentioned her to come here, "Now come here. I'll even help you."

She sighed heavily once more and looked around the scenario before her. There was a large frozen pond while the land was covered in snow and the trees were bare from the cold. They were all alone while everyone else was back in Jontha and they were preparing to go to the Hunting Grounds.

But Hidan didn't seem to be bothered by right now.

She had to ask him, "Hidan, why are we not preparing to go to the Hunting Grounds like the others?"

He sighed heavily and she could see a heavy fog coming out from his mouth. "Tha, I f**king know the routine of this game. And I've already f**king prepared us for the Hunting Grounds so don't you f**king worry about it. Right now, can we f**king enjoy our time together?"

She shivered a bit since the cold was really getting into her. She glanced over her shoulder to look at the path they went through to get here. "Well…" she returned her gaze to her husband who was crossing his arms on his chest, "…I suppose so. But I don't know how to skate."

Hidan smirked widely at her, "Don't worry, Tha. I'll help you."

He held out a hand out to her and she accepted it without hesitation. He brought her down on the stone that he sat on before, kneeled down and helped her putting on her ice skaters. She watched as he tied her shoe laces together tightly and groaned softly when he tied it tightly.

He only grinned up at her and stood up. "Come on. I know you're going to f**king love this." He held out a hand to her as he faced towards the frozen pond.

Thanerah felt incredibly nervous when she glanced at the frozen pond but she found comfort when she looked back to her husband. She accepted his hand with a soft smile and he brought her on the frozen pond.

She nearly slipped when she first stepped foot on the ice but he held her tightly to prevent her from falling down completely. He chuckled as she was holding onto him for dear life when she fell. He teasingly said to her as he held her up strongly, "Don't worry, Tha. I got you."

She softly glared at him.

But he only chuckled more.

He enthused to her as he wrapped an arm around her waist and held her hand, "It's really simple. Just try to skate around a few times."

She felt incredibly nervous right now and she tried to move her feet but she found it quite difficult to move at all on the ice. She groaned deeply in frustration when she gave up, "Argh, this is impossible!" She pleaded him, "Can we please go home?"

He shook his head with a crazy grin, "No. Not until you learn how to f**king skate."

She grimaced when he started to pull her with him as he skated around a bit. She slipped a few times but he managed to hold her up every time, but there were times when he nearly let her slip. She scolded him for that and wanted him to stop playing around with her but he was enjoying this too much.


"Remind me never to go ice skating with you again…" groaned Thanerah as she was leaning the side of her face against his chest while he was carrying her back home in bridle-style.

He chuckled a bit and said, "But babe, you have to admit that that was pretty f**king hilarious."

She softly glared up at him, "You're not the one who fell on your butt 13 times after your spouse surprisingly pushes you!" She whacked his chest but he didn't seem to be affected by it.

He simply shrugged, "Hey, I was only trying to help you skate."

"Well don't because I'm not going to do that again…EVER!"

"Don't be so f**king sure about that, Tha. We're immortal, remember? You might change your mind in the future."

"…Probably but I know that I won't skate any time soon."

He chuckled once more, "Okay, okay, fair enough."


Days later…

"So this is the Hunting Grounds?" asked Thanerah as she looked at her surroundings after the ship landed on a clear spot in a large forest.

Her husband appeared by her side, "Yep."

"And you think this Kryselis is still here? Even before the end of the Ukrahs?"

"Many beasts lived in the outside with the f**king Ukrahs. I don't know how the f**k they did it but they just did."

Tagor appeared by her side, "But that doesn't mean that we should put our guard down. These Kryselis are deadly; especially their poisons."

Thanerah arched a brow at her older brother, "You've hunt a Kryselis before?"

"No. I just heard these rumors. Nothing more."

"But did you ever wanted to join the hunt?"

"Why would I be interested in a hunt while I was still trying to protect my own skin from Ukrahs? Ukrahs are enough, thank you very much. This kind of competition is favored by the Jashinists. Not werewolves."

She held her arms out in a defensive way, "All right, don't need to get all offensive, brother. I was just asking."

She held a hand out to let the light snow to land on her palm and it melted when it touched it. Then suddenly they heard a loud screech from afar and it echoed through the woods.

"That's a Kryselis cry…" mumbled Hidan and he flexed his shoulders a bit as the other Jashinists were coming out of their ships after landing. He turned his gaze to the two siblings, "But first we have to settle before we can begin the f**king hunt. It's going to be a long one; Kryselis are not f**king stupid, unfortunately."

He grabbed his wife's hand and dragged her towards a direction. Tagor sighed heavily and followed them from behind with Thunder walking beside him.


Thanerah let out a long relief sigh when she entered the warm room that they were given after reaching the Ceremonial place. It was true of what her husband said before. Inside it was warm like spring but outside was still snowing.

She placed her bag on the double sided bed and gladly sank on it but she was surprised when she heard the bed creaked by rough springs. "Oh no…" she muttered.

Hidan looked at the bed with an uneasy look as she tested the bed once again by hopping on it a bit. She looked at him queasily and asked him, "Do we really want this room? I mean, this bed is so…so…"

", f**ked up?" he finished her sentence and placed his hands on the side of his hips.

She agreed with him with a nod. She glanced at Thunder and asked him, "What do you think?"

Thunder's response was a nod as well.

She asked her husband, "Can we change rooms?"

He sadly shook his head, "No. The rest of the f**king rooms are already booked with the others. Guess luck is not on our side, babe."

"Yeah, but if we…" she softly blushed "…you know…Do you think the others will hear us?"

"No doubt about it." Then he suddenly made a big grin, "But I don't really f**king care of what they think. Let them be envy of us."

Her blush darkened and she didn't realize that he was right in front of her. She snapped back into reality when she felt her lips being covered by his and she muffled in surprise. Before they could get any further, she softly pushed him away but not too far.

She softly smiled at him, "Hidan, as much as I would like to do that. We have to hunt."

He frowned at her deeply and whined, "Come on, Tha! I'm already turned on." He tried to reclaim her lips again but she held him back strongly, surprisingly.

"We can do it after we're done. And I'll let you be in control if you'll behave."

He sighed heavily and moved to sit on the bed next to her, "Fine. If it makes you happy, then I'll f**king behave."

She firmly planted a kiss on his cheek, "Thanks, love. You're really a good man."

He rolled his eyes a bit, "I'm not a good man, Tha. I'm a good husband. Those are completely different, you know?"

She gave him another kiss on the cheek, "Keep telling yourself that, but I won't change my mind about it."
