The wide reaching and old forests of Hi no Kuni was quite beautiful at this time of the year. Most people would stop for a moment and marvel at the lush scenery. But Kakuzu did not have that luxury. Even if he did he, never cared much for plants. He was moving about as quiet as possible, not wanting to draw much attention to himself. Practically every country was on the lookout for Akatsuki. If possible he did not want to face any Konoha shinobi in battle for now. It would take away his precious time, and chances where that even if he did face on in battle and take him out, he would have little to no bounty on his head. For now he just needed some time away from Hidan and his stupid rituals and prayers. Never before had the leader paired him with a more annoying partner. Kakuzu had already lost count of how many times he had tried to dispose of his partner and failed.

The nukenin let out a long-drawn sigh and walked onwards. He was getting quite close to Crater City.

[Hidan]

Body flicker Technique ((OOC: Surprise))
"Where the Fuck Have you been", Hidan screamed at his partner completly obliviouse to what he was doing.
He stood there with his scythe strapped to his back, arms folded and jashin pendant in hand as always.

He had been looking everywhere for his partner, god he hated him.
All he ever wanted was money, probably what he was after now.
" So... what the hell" He continued not giving him a chance to answer the first question.

[shi]

The nukenin formed a string of handseals and stun around on his feet when he heard someone approaching him from behind. He launched a punch in the direction of the sudden enemy, before even confirming his identity. The now dark brown fist broke through the air, coming closer to... Hidan. Of course it was him... If it was any other Akatsuki member he was about to punch, Kakuzu would most likely have stopped the attack. But seeing as it was Hidan after all, he really didn't see any reason to stop.

[Hidan]

Hidan being hidan was far to slow to get out of the way so of course the super chargerd arm smacked him square in the chest, knocking the wind out of him and causing him to cough up blood, He bent over in pain.
" God damn what is your problem, that hurt you know... christ.", He said breathing heavily, it was always the same with kakuzu smack first collect bounty later.
" Im pritty sure you punctured my lung, you could have killed me" He said again with a smile as he raised from his bent over postition he always smiled this way when mocking about either of their deaths.

He knew he was to slow to hit kakuzu with his scythe so decided to give up on that idea.
he stood there and whiped the blood from his mouth.

[shi]

Kakuzu took great pleasure in hurting hit partner. But sadly Hidan sometimes seemed to enjoy it even more... He let out another sigh.
"Quit sneaking up on me. I might seriously kill you one of these days."
Kakuzu too, could see the futility of their battles. Neither of them could kill the other, yet not 10 minutes would pass without one of them threatening to kill the other...

He turned once again, heading for the city once more, ignoring Hidan's interruption. He really needed a drink. He was quite happy that he could change his organs as he pleased. His current liver had gone through a lot of challenges lately because of his new partner...

[Hidan]

Hidan could see he was irritation the hell out of kakuzu,
" So... what are you doing and are we there yet.", He said slightly louder than his indoor voice, He enjoyed being irritating becouse its not like he could kill his partner, might as well make him suffer.
He walked along ignoring the fact kakuzu seamed to be trying to draw as little attention to himself as posible.
He decided to bring up one of there countless points of view taht differed.
" You know jashin and i don't belive in killing for profit, you know your going to hell, why du need money anyway, you just take what you want ... (etc)" He carried on like this for a while.

[shi]

The constant stream of ignorant and religious views of his annoying partner rained down upon Kakuzu for a while. After five minutes time of this, Kakuzu had enough. He grabbed his partner's throat and held him up against a tree, feet flowing freely. He looked him in the eyes, annoyance visible in his eyes.
"Hell is ruled by money and power, just like this world. Once i die, hell itself will be in my palm. Money is everything. If you have enough money you can but a country from a Feudal Lord and do as you please with it. You can shape the world around you with money. Without money, there would be no ninja villages and no reason for ninjas to do jobs. The great countries would collapse if they where not supported economically by their hidden villages."
Kakuzu made a short pause to enjoy the sound of his partner choking. He had started to calm down a little.
"Your religion, your god, your rituals. All of them are useless and a waste of time. But you are young. Given enough time, even you will recognize the need for money."
With that said, he finally allowed his partner to breathe. Not like he really needed it... Once Hidan was on the ground again, Kakuzu was much more calm. Giving that punk a piece of his mind was just what he needed.

They where finally able to hear the distant sounds of the city.
"We're going."

[Hidan]

He ignored his partners Command.
As soon as he had breath in his lungs with which to retort with a torentual amount of profanities he continued his argument but lauder, much louder.
"... Your like as fucking immortal as me, what the hell du need money for, you wont die so wont go to hell you prat... And another thing, with out my god, my religion and my rituals i would go to hell, i would die and i would make you happy so to avoid all these fucking things i will continue to sacrifice, perfom rituals and waste your time and money as much as i can !" , After this he decided to follow his partner.
" So where are we going ? " He asked.

[shi]

Kakuzu could not help but think for a moment if he even wanted to let Hidan know where they where heading. One one hand, he could stay silent, but if he didn't tell him, he would start pestering him even more about it. on the other hand, even if he DID tell him, he might start complaining about it and begin lecturing him in the ways of that idiot god of his.

"For a drink. I need to get a new list of bounties anyway, so we're hitting two birds with one stone to save time."

And now he braced himself for the incoming rain of complaints and lectures. That guy was lucky to be immortal. It was the only thing keeping him from facing Kakuzu's full wrath. The pointlessness of trying to kill him made it so very dull to even try...

[Hidan]

Although drinking was against his religion he decided to let kakuzu have this one of his onl simple pleasures, he might need him to fix a severed limb some time so it was better to have him in a good mood.
" Ok" He said in rather a huffy voice,
He was unhappy that his partner hated him so, the only real reson hidan hated him was becouse of hismoney hungery godless, blashmemic alchohalistc ways... ok there was alot to hate, but he had sown him back together many times.
And the banter was not bad even if it was life threatining.

[shi]

Though he was quite surprised at the indifference his partner seemed to display, he said nothing. Kakuzu had a feeling that Hidan was just buttering him up to make him buy something. That must be it...

The two of them finally reached the town. They walked slowly through the city, keeping a low profile, looking for a small and quiet place. Kakuzu only knew the name of this place from one of his associates, he had never actually been there...

[Hidan]

"So where are we heading anyawy weve been walking for hours" He said in a whinny voice.
He knew that hours might have been a little of an exageration but he didnt care.
He was not keeping as low a profile as his partner, glaring at people, it was probobably there fault he had to walk this far anyway.
Damn godless heithens.

[shi]

The old ninja ignored his partner for a while as he looked on a neon colored sign flashily introducing the bar bellow it as the "Blue Dream". Kakuzu briefly looked at Hidan before saying "We're here...".
He pushed the door open and took a quick glance across the bar. There where no shinobi inside as far as he could tell. Excellent.
They had a habit of making his job a pain in the ass to do.
He walked up to the bar, face covered by his hood and mask. He sat on a empty chair and once the barkeeper turned his attention to him he asked him for "The Usual". It did not take long for the man behind the desk to figure out the meaning. He gave him a bow and took a couple of sheets from bellow the counter and handed them to him discretely.

[Hidan]

" Yo Kakuzu what the fuck are they ?"
He asked rather loudly and bluntly pointing to the bits of paper, he half knew what they were but if and he hoped to jashin that it was true, but if someone else seamed to work it out, they would have a fight on there hands, a fight in which to sacrafice to jashin.

The bar fell silent, as one or two looked over in there direction.
He wasnt sure what would happen but he help his jashin symbol to his mouth in hope and prayer.

[shi]

Inside his usually calm mind, Kakuzu cursed his idiotic partner. He had a very very strong desire to rip off his his head with his bare hands and not sew it back on for a coupe of weeks. He slowly turned on the bar chair, sending a chilling glare across the room, daring anyone to look at him.

He deposited the papers inside his cloak, accepted the drink that the bartender had put forth for him. He took down his mask for a brief moment to gulp down the liquid, and once it was down, he put it back on, rose from the the chair and grabbed his partner by the collar and dragged him out of the bar under high protests. Fuck him...

[Hidan]

( i can now call up 2 god mods )

Hidan was kicking and crusing all the way out of the bar " That the fuck you weirdo, fuck is your problem i just asked you a question "[/color].
Hidan knew what was coming, it was going to be a fight, he heated these, he would end up loosing a limb and hiving it stolen for a while and since kakuzu too was almost immortal he would have to pray to jashin one fuck load.
He knew it was to late to apologies, far far to late.

(god mod one) Still in kakuzus graps he pulled out his kunai and slashed at kakuzus under arm, drawing enough blood to consume it before even he could react, he licked the blade and began to pray loudly to jashin, this was almost all he had to do, just a symbol and the Jujutsu was complete.
This would shut him up.

[shi]

Kakuzu wasn't prepared for Hidan's attack. The kunai sliced through his almost dead skin, several of the aging nerves screamed in agony, But they where unheard. Kakuzu ignored the pain and focused on Hidan. He wasn't dumb enough to let him finish the ritual he had seen him do so many times. He had been analyzing it over and over again, and found several flaws with it.

First of all he could keep Hidan out of the circle, making the jutsu useless. He could also destroy the circle, to make it inefficient.
Or... that was that third way.
Kakuzu formed three quick handseals and put one hand to his mouth.
Suiton: Suijinheki
A stream of water hit the ground and started to flow and ripple outwards, leaving a small layer on top. It was no use trying to draw on top of water.

[Hidan]

Hidan did not expect this, he knew his partner had been analysed it but this was insane.. On the other hand he did have other methods>

Since Kakuzu used his hands for hand seals Hidan was free to do a seireis of backflips along the water covered floor then using chakra in his feet attated himself to the wall.. he only had to draw the symbol it didnt have to be on the floor, he stabbed his leg and began to trace the circle in blood.

[nena]

Amatersu had been sitting in a bar enjoying herself and her drink. She wore a white dress with a slit up past her ass. The neck line was low cut as well, going almost to the tips of her breasts, and the dress its self was a very form fitting. She raised her eyes casually as two men entered, akatsuki judging by their cloaks and she smiled to herself. Maybe she would meet the whole motley crew.

Her hand flew to her umbrella as the two began to fight, one dragging the other out side. The bar keep threw desperate glances around, not wanting his place to be destroyed. Ama couldn't blame him, she owned her own buisness as well. She rose slowly and threw back a shot of tequila before opening the door to see one on the wall next to her and the other standing there. She looked down at the water around her feet as some went rushing into Blue Dream before she shut the door again quickly. Amatersu smiled her seductive smile and looked at the one on the wall. "Your a Jashinist I presume? And the man you are attempting to sacrifice would be your partner am I correct?" She leaned against the door casually, ignoring the water around her knees and the obvious danger of confronting two very dangerous shinobi.

[shi]

Kakuzu started getting worried. It wasn't like Hidan to be this determined. But Kakuzu would not let him have victory this easy. He formed another string of handseals and two water clones emerged. They both charged at Hidan head-on, while he was about to use yet another jutsu to finish his partner. But he was interrupted by the woman. She seemed to care little for the two of them fighting in the middle of the city, completely uncaring about what might happen to anyone around them.

He regained his focus. This was no time to space out. Hidan wasn't likely to stop from something like that. But luckily his clones where closing in on him. He only hoped they could make it in time.
