"Why would they use a barrier that is sensitive to fire attacks if they knew that we had dragons under our command?" Kakashi then thought of another possibility. They might not have figured that they ever could have convinced the dragons to help them out. Blinking for a moment, he considered this but then turned his dragon downward as best as he could. "I think that she negotiated her way out of this."<br/><br/>Eventually Hidan blinked toward Kakuzu since he had no recourse. He never gave any thought to what he would have said to the other had he shown up. After all, he had been too overcome with emotion before to give into such thoughts. Blinking again, Hidan figured that Kakuzu would merely have to follow his orders.<br/><br/>"...we would find it more fruitful to capture another prisoner."<br/><br/>Surely Hidan wasn't at all used to being questioned, therefore he figured that he wouldn't have been. Then again, that was his altered mind talking. Kakuzu more than likely wouldn't have accepted that.
