    You woke up to a piercing pain in your leg. Never before had you experienced anything as agonizing as this. You did your best not move much. When you opened your eyes all the way, you realized you were in a dark area, possibly a cave, surrounded by small, lit candles. The air was damp and you detected the faintest smell of blood. You were paralyzed not only with pain, but also terror.
You managed to sit up just a little and you saw a dark figure sitting cross legged a few meters in front of you. At first, you didn't recognize the person, as their skin was pitch black accented with white, skeleton-like markings. It wasn't until they spoke that you recognized exactly who they were.
"Well...look who's awake,"Hidan said as he stood up, not moving from the spot he was in. You had no idea why he looked the way he did but it certainly made him more intimidating. The worst part was the look he was giving you. It was filled with bloodlust and maliciousness. "Now now, don't you think it was just a little rude of you to run off from me like that?" He growled just loud enough for you to hear. You tried to speak, but the words wouldn't escape your lips, so you just sneered at him instead. He let out a dry laugh,"c'mon, that's no way to treat your savior. If it wasn't for me, Kakuzu would have had you killed already. I'm giving you a few extra hours of precious life before I have my way."
Your thoughts were racing a mile a minute by now, and each passing moment you felt a rise in dread. Hidan leaned forward a little, still not stepping any farther. "Say something! Now! I have a ritual I want to perform and I can't keep Jashin waiting any longer!" When he began yelling like that, you sat up some to lock eyes with with. As soon as you did you felt a warm pain in your leg and you collapsed onto your back again, but not after you caught a glimpse of your wound. There was a huge, open gash along you calf. Hidan chuckled at your pain,"it hurts, right....? Don't you just LOVE it?! I think it's time we share that pain..."
With that, he pulled out a long stake that glimmered in the candlelight and raised it above his head. "I'm sure Jashin will appreciate such a pretty little sacrifice," he started with a hint of a laugh in his voice,"don't you agree? Of course we don't want to ruin that face of yours so I'll start somewhere else!!" With that, the stake came plummeting down into his other arm, right above the wrist. You shrieked out in agony as you felt something pierce your wrist, unbeknownst to what it was. Blood poured out into the dirt around you as you screamed. Hot tears ran down your cheeks; you could not longer contain yourself.
With all the effort you had, you sat up and cradled your wrist. Your eyes met with his and you cried even more with confusion and panic. "STOP STOP PLEASE!! I'm BEGGING you!!" you yelped. His face twisted into a frown. "What? You don't like that...? Why don't you keep fuckin whining, I adore the sound of your agony!" You could barely hold in your emotions as you sobbed uncontrollably.
"H-Hidan," you managed to barely whisper,"I'll do anything...anything, please just end this...." Your blood was draining rapidly, causing your vision to get faded and blurry. "You really don't appreciate this pain as much as I do, huh, you little bitch? Why don't I just end it already then!!" He yelled, sweat dripping down his brow out of anger and exasperation. He tore the stake out of his wrist, causing you even more suffering. With a deep growl he pressed the tip of the stake into his chest just enough to pierce the skin on both his body and yours.
You were so close to death and you knew it, which caused more tears to surge from your eyes. "I'm begging you....Hidan...." You locked eyes with him once again, more desperate than ever. He looked back with rage, his nostrils flaring. It felt like hours passed. Nothing happened, neither of you moved. You struggled to stay conscious and keep eye contact.
His face softened. His grip loosened and he dropped the stake on the floor and dropped to his knees. "I can't do it...what the hell, I can't do it...." Your breath deepened as you relaxed your body and pain flowed through you. Ultimately, you were unable to keep yourself up and you fell on your back and everything faded to black.
