@Combat, Kakashi didn't see the other one looking at him. It wasn't that he forgot they shared vision. He wondered how the Pain knew he was there, and saw the other Pain looking at him and says "Oh right that Pain saw it so this one saw it."

For all Kakashi knew, he was fighting two Pains. He already successfully guessed Pain's objective of using the other Pain's as distractions and more subtle Pains to interrogate. He had no reason to believe the other Pains were coming. So no reason to think that the Asura Path would be revived.

Jiraiya fought 3 of the weaker paths successfully. Kakashi fought 2 of the strongest paths, and then one got revived.
