The Commanding Eyes

Twenty

I looked around at the garden of Jashin and smiled when I felt his hand touch my shoulder. Here within the garden I was blind once more and had to rely solely on my other senses. I smiled when I felt a smooth pair of lips connect with my own. I closed my eyes as I leaned into his kiss and wrapped my arms around his neck. Jashin chuckled deeply against my mouth and caressed my cheek as he pulled away to look me in the face. I stroked my hand down his cheek and smiled bigger when I realized he was smiling, a tell-tale sign that we did well in killing Madara and giving him the most corrupted soul in existence.

Jashin ran his hand over where I had been cut in half, "how are you feeling?" Jashin asked.

"Better, I understand that it was required to defeat Madara. I gave my word that I'd give you his soul and I was not going to fail you, my lord," I said as I looked in his direction.

"You've never failed my Makoto, I've always found both you and your brother to be the most loyal servants I've ever had the pleasure of controlling," Jashin said against my lips.

I reached up and daringly pecked him on his lips, "so what now?" I asked against his lips.

He chuckled, "I don't know, you and your brother are immortal, what do you want to do?" Jashin asked as he looked at me.

"I want to die," I said as I took his hand.

Jashin seemed to have been caught off guard as he froze in his movement. I'm sure he was looking at me with confusion as to why I was wanting to die, but I've always served him as long as I can honestly remember. I don't remember a time where I've been free to do as I wish without the looming presence of my gift in the back of my mind, taunting me, reminding me that I am bound to the mortal world until I finish my goal. Now I have completed the ultimate task. I've given Jashin the purest soul of hate he could ever ask for and now I wanted to rest in the garden with him, pass my torch to someone else.

Jashin seemed to snap from his thoughts, "why do you want to die Makoto?" He asked.

I smiled, "I want to be with you in the sakura garden, I want to serve you and Hidan in the afterlife," I said with honesty.

"Are you saying you want me to kill your brother as well?" He asked.

I nodded, "only if he agrees to it," I replied.

Jashin summoned Hidan into the garden and looked over at me, "Makoto wants to die, and he wants to bring you with him, do you agree?" Jashin asked.

Hidan seemed to have been caught off guard judging by the sound he made, "why does he want to die?" Hidan asked.

"I wish to be a servant in the sakura garden, and I want you to be one of my masters," I replied with a smile.

Hidan sighed, "I agree, living day to day for hundreds of years was getting kind of boring," Hidan said with what I assumed was a shrug.

We both screamed as a burning pain tore through our spiritual bodies. I blinked when I could see again and watched as both of our physical bodies spasmed and arched until they finally died and decayed into the ground. I gasped in awe as I saw some of my lords power for the first time. I looked down when I felt a yukata replace my clothing and ran my hand over the silky material. Hidan wrapped his arm around my shoulder and we walked to the Sakura tree, together we reached out to touch the tree and our Jashin tattoos became a light red: the color of the garden. It was to signal that we were spirits who belonged to Jashin as his servants. It would become part of our jobs to initiate the newest priests as they come to Jashin for ultimate power and self-worth. I smiled as an orb of red chakra appeared in my hand and dismissed it as Jashin walked over to me. I looked up into his eyes as he leaned down to kiss me deeply and passionately. I got an idea and smirked.

"Lord Jashin, strip," I said.

Jashin growled seductively when he found himself being forced to strip naked. He knew I would never betray him and he'd be topping regardless, but it was fun to use my ability to my advantage every once in a while. And using it I would be for the rest of eternity.
