Of course Shikamaru didn't want Deidara to stay dead. But he couldn't just think about what he wanted. Yes, he wanted his friend back, wanted him back as soon as possible. But he remembered all the things Deidara had said, the importance of impermanence to him. If only they'd had more time to talk, then he might know what to do right now. He just didn't want to make a mistake while he had the chance to do the right thing.

But what was the right thing? What Hidan said was true. Shikamaru knew it better than anyone else from working at the station every day. Most of the police were crooked. Hell, Yaha was the main suspect and he was one of them. But if Shikamaru gave up on the justice system, gave up on all the things his dad had taught him about the law and about good, then what was he left with?

Shikamaru looked from Deidara to Hidan, then at the reaper. If he gave the body up, Deidara would come back to life, but they'd never know for sure who had done this unless Deidara remembered it himself. Which he wouldn't, from what Shikamaru already knew about those who ended up auctioned. There would be no investigation, the killer would be free to kill again, and this would just keep happening.

Unless he and Hidan put a stop to it themselves. Wasn't it obvious who had done it? Even the motive was clear. No one would know Shikamaru found the body, so they had a head start. If Yaha turned up dead, no one would know who had done it. This agent would never talk. They never did. They were the Omega.

"Fine," Shikamaru muttered darkly, stepping aside. "How long before he goes up for auction?"

A brief glance to Hidan, listening to the other's rant. His expression didn't change from the vague annoyed look that he had. Did he really have to stand and listen to all of this babble on affairs that did not concern him? It seemed as though he would if he did not want to have a fight on his hands over a corpse. "Honestly. I would rather not feel like a common body snatcher." He muttered, more to himself than at the two. Letting out an annoyed sigh, it seemed like he was finally allowed to do his job.

Stepping forward, the clippers of his scythe snapped out to grab onto the back of Deidara's -- as that seemed to be the blond's name -- neck. It lifted the body with relatively no ease before snapping back towards the reaper; who would carry the body much like one would a deranged flag. William reminded himself that he had a change of clothes at the Ministry building should any bits come off onto him. Could have hefted him over his shoulder, but with transit, pieces might eventually fall off before he actually got to where he must be. If anything, he wanted the body to be as intact as it must be for recycling, but what got what what got. They would always replace the bits lost -- beggars should not be choosers.

So much trouble.

"That is not my department." He finally answered now that he had the body in his possession. "But if they are doing their job, it might be as early as tomorrow. Good day. Once more, I apologize for the inconvenience." A brief bow of his head to the two. Like he could worry about his subordinate and all the other groups that ran the Ministry. Before he would be caught in another argument with the two, he jumped from the sidewalk to the nearest rooftop -- with mild jostling of the body -- to the next; finally heading to Elysium.

Usually, Hidan was pissed one way or another. But right now, at this moment, he was just looking like a smug bastard. Seemed as though his whole lecture got through that retarded skull and pierced that shitty brain. That was good. Hidan was pretty damn proud of himself by convincing Shikamaru to do what he wanted -- and it was easily shown by the pursing of lips that pulled into a wide smirk. So he wasn’t that fucking stupid, Hidan just thought of different things that worked on irrational gears.

Hell, he didn’t even give a fuck if Deidara was dead anymore. That bastard will be back, and when he does, he was going to lose a few (dozen) teeth and have a bruised face for longer than a month. Hidan paced around Shikamaru, and then cackled a bit, turning his head to see that Omega cocksucker saying some bullshit that wasn’t even that interesting to listen to and flipped him off. Goddamnit, Hidan should have killed that bastard when he had the chance and steal Deidara’s body...heh.

That would’ve been pretty funny. For one reason or another.

"Tch, what a dumbfuck." He muttered after the Omega guy pissed off and looked down at Shikamaru. God, wasn’t he meant to say something nice or something? Well, he could fucking try right? After all, Shikamaru got it through his head that personal vengeance was the best sort of punishment. Hidan was just better with physical shit than vocal, "Aw man." He scratched the back of his head, "Fuck this! God, that guy fucking pisses me off!" He snapped, pointing at where William was, "I’m going to rip that cunt’s throat out next time I see him, seriously!" Hidan yelled.

An acute inhale, and he said to Shikamaru, "All right...all right, so. What now?" A stern expression displayed itself, "Oh, right. You’re going to go after that tranny." A snort of disapproval, "Fuck, whatever. Whatever." Oh man, why was this so fucking hard?! "Go on then, try to do some shit by yourself since you want to so damn hard." Damnit, he wasn’t meant to say this! Fucking mouth running off as usual. He exhaled darkly and placed his hands in his pockets.

He grunted with some sort of awkward frustration and then placed his hands on Shikamaru’s shoulders - the grip at first was almost bone breaking until his body uncoiled. "Yeah, I’m gonna be worried shitless about you! I hope that makes you happy!" So he, yeah, maybe he should just shut up. Which he did, after he removed his hands from Shikamaru’s shoulders and grumbled under his breath, "I’m going to call the dumbass boss, see what the fuck he could do with this auction shit. Then I’m going to bust Yaha’s ass. You got it? I’m not taking 'no fuck off Hidan' as a answer!...or whatever."

As early as tomorrow, the reaper said. Shikamaru looked away, not wanting to watch as the body was hauled away in case it made him want to change his mind. I'm sorry, Dei, he apologized silently as he lowered his eyes. You'll have to live to be a little older. I'm too selfish to say goodbye yet.

He was left alone with Hidan, and suddenly he was aware of the great big void. For a while now, it had been the three of them dealing with problems like these. They were all comrades when preparing to go up against the military. A team of three. That just seemed like how it was supposed to be. Now they were reduced to two, and pretty soon Shikamaru would go off on his own.

Hidan wasn't pleased about that. Shikamaru looked up at him when he felt those hands on his shoulders. "It's just Yaha," he murmured. "I have my shadows. He won't even know what hit him." Was he really doing this? Was he capable of killing someone... just like that? But every time he thought of Deidara's empty eyes, his body displayed like that with such grotesque disrespect, he knew he could. For justice, he could.

As early as tomorrow... He would have to make sure there was no way Yaha could have access to the auction. Until then, he had to go to school and make everything seem normal. That way he'd avoid suspicion later. "Deal with your boss," he told Hidan. "I need to get to school, class already started. Look, if you're worried about me, just call me. And definitely call me if the auction starts. I want to know when he's bought, okay?" And if anything went wrong, then Hidan would know because he wasn't answering his phone. That was the best he could do. If Hidan insisted on coming with him for the confrontation, then his plan wouldn't work.

[holyish]

Unlike Shikamaru who was mentally mourning Deidara, Hidan was mentally screaming and yelling as his top row of teeth dug into the soft flesh of his bottom lip until the meat blossomed softly with crimson. His fists were clenched at his sides and head lowered with anger surging through ever inch of him. It wasn’t that he didn’t trust Shikamaru to not be careful, more like he didn’t trust that shithead Yaha to just lay down and fucking die like the creep he was.

A deep breath and he arched his back, a deep groan and the ball of his palm rubbed an eyesocket painfully - though really, it didn’t seem all that painful, the immense tension he felt died down soon enough. Really though, Hidan knew that Shikamaru could fucking kill. The little shit found out he had his powers of shadows or whatever the hell they were - and yeah, he was the brother of a psychopath killer anyway. So why the hell shouldn’t Shikamaru be able to kill him.

His anger started to dull down to nothing but not giving a shit, "Whatever..." He murmured, almost sullenly, and then there was the rage there once again, "WHATEVER! FINE, FUCK OKAY YOU DO IT!" And damn, it was pretty damn obvious that Hidan wanted to bash in that faggot face once again. It was all pretty overwhelming, because instead on acting on impulses he usually did, he actually had the muster the small amount of brain cells he had left to actually think!

"Okay, okay. You fucking do it. Just call me when you actually kill him, got it?" He demanded harshly even if it was just some stupid retarded whisper. Goddamnit, he felt so damn restless, and yeah, so he just idly kicked a bit of rubble on the road and avoided Shikamaru’s gaze. "You owe me, seriously." He muttered under his breath and he turned to Shikamaru. Okay, what was he meant to do now apart from piss off? Right, right. Comfort, comforting was always good, wasn’t it? Well, least he could give it a fucking shot. Hidan made his way to Shikamaru and wrapped his arms around his younger brother, his hold on him was tense but not all that rough, and he muttered with clear hate. "Don’t you dare let that bastard touch you. Or whatever the fuck, like that shitty pedo crap. Whatever." And with a squeeze, he released Shikamaru and fucked off like he was meant too.
