Hi
Enjoy 3

"Shaydene, I'm scared.." Shivered Aliya, holding her kunai tightly to her chest.

"I told you to shut up. Or we'll be spotted." Shaydene whispered in a angry voice, her back was pressed against a tree, with a kunai ready in her hand.

It was almost impossible to see in this thick forest. Branches, vines and roots were everywhere. Especially Aliya, the only thing she could see was the blonde hair in her face. She lost the hairpin in their last encounter which keeps her fringe back in place and out of the way.

Shaydene glanced at Aliya, she was a total mess. Shivering like a puppy and her eyes already filled with tears. This girl.. She fears her own shadow. What was the lord thinking sending this girl along with her. She sighed. It couldn't be helped, they knew each other better than anyone and their team work was almost perfect.

Her other team member was quiet, she doesn't think she's ever heard him say a word and his face was always covered under that stupid hood and mask. He never introduced himself either, she'd have to pick a name for him because no one ever said his name. He was never noticed, he only suddenly 'appears' or is not there at all. That's why she called him ghost. He definitely acts like one. Silent follower and kind of creepy.

"Ghost, do you still have the scroll?" Shaydene asked in a whisper, glancing over to him crouched behind Aliya.

Ghost nodded and pulled it out of his pouch to show her.

"Good, we didn't lose it. We need to start getting serious, there's only 3 days left and we've only been playing around." Shaydene said.

She pulled out 3 already chakra infused needles from her fingerless glove and threw them far in separate directions. The moment they hit the tree the impact sends out a small chakra shockwave about 100 metres in diametre and reacts to other forms of chakra. Depending on how fast one throws them the length varies.

She closed her eyes and used the seal of confrontation to concentrate on the chakra. (One hand seal with two fingers pointing up).

"I detect a squad of three and one other guy who's walking away from them. They still have all their chakra so I doubt they've been in a fight."

Shaydene opened her eyes and turned around to face her squad, "ok, Aliya you stay far behind us since you're a long range fighter, me and ghost will sneak up using our muffle jutsu and strike from behind. Got it?"

Aliya and ghost both nodded, they readied their weapons and followed behind her quietly. Aliya slowed down the further they got. She grabbed the bow off her back and a steel arrow out of her quiver, she could see the three people Shaydene was talking about, a fat guy eating chips, a bored looking guy with a pony tail and a pretty blonde girl with he hair tied back looking absolutely defeated.

Shaydene stopped while Ghost went around to the other side of them, out of Aliya's view. Now that she can't see him, she can't protect him either, she's going to have to trust he knows what he's doing or he'll be done for. She trusted Shaydene had a good plan.

The three oblivious shinobi were just standing around chatting, it looked like they were planning something, and totally off guard.

Suddenly a Kunai landed at their feet from the opposite side. They all jumped and pulled out their kunais.

"Who are you?! Stop hiding like a coward!" The brunette with the ponytail shouted.

Aliya saw shaydene pulling out six needles from her belt, three in each hand between her fingers. She was kneeling on one knee, supposedly waiting for Ghost to strike again.

For a moment there was silence.

"Shikamaru, who threw that?" The blonde girl asked, she was already sweating as the fat guy next to her. But almost all fat guys sweat, so that's no surprise.

"How am I supposed to know that, just stay on your guard." He replied, holding his kunai up to his face.

Another kunai came darting out of the bushes, aiming straight for the girls heart.

'Ghost isn't wasting any time killing them is he.' Shaydene laughed to herself.

"Shikamaru jumped in front of the blonde and blocked the attack, "there you are!" He shouted as he threw his kunai straight were the other came from.

Now that they're distracted, Shayde kept herself low and threw three needles straight at their ankles. She heard them scream in pain before falling down desperately looking at what hit 'em.

"Damn it, there's more of them!" The guy with the pony tail exclaimed.

Not wasting any time Shaydene jumped to the next position without making a sound and throwing the last three needles into their other ankles. Then more in their shoulders.

"I can't move my feet!" The blonde girl shouted in fear after Shikamaru deflected the last needles she aimed at their shoulders.

"Cowards!" The fat guy yelled.

'This is called being a ninja, you idiots'. Shaydene thought.

Shikamaru pulled the kunai from the floor and aimed it straight at shaydene. Though his efforts were wasted, Ghost blocked the attack with his Kunai.

Now they know where they are.

"Chouji, now!" Shikamaru ordered.

The fat guy pulled the needles out of his ankles, squealing, he slowly stood up and shouted "human boulder jutsu!" His body turned into a ball and shot off straight at Shaydene.

'He's fast! Aliya!' Shaydene panicked.

Aliya knew, she shot her arrow she was already aiming, at Chouji in an instant. Almost a second later she pulled another out and shot it at Shikamaru who was wide eyed in shock watching his friend get hit in the side with blood already pouring out of his body.

"Chou-!" he couldn't even finished his word before he too was his in the side by an arrow.

Chouji fell flet on his stomach, while Shikamaru fell on his back.

"Shikamaru! Chouji!"

The blood started to pour out of their bodies, their eyes still resembling the worst shock of their lives, because now, they are fearing for their life.

"Ino, run! Get out of here!"

'Ah... So she's Ino. Definitely suits her, she's so pretty' Aliya thought so herself. She bit her lip, those wounds on the guys looked really horrible... They're already loosing heaps of blood, she wished she could help them.. But they're enemies, she can't help her enemies!
She saw shaydene come out in the open, her hands filled with needles and her face looking determined.

"You're not going anywhere, Ino." She snapped.

"Ino-.. How do you know my name?! Who are you?!" Ino screamed, she couldn't run, the needles were still in her ankles and bleeding quite a lot.

"Because he said you're name just then." Shaydene said, pointing the Shikamaru who was lying down, gagging on his own blood.

"Shika..." Ino whispered, her eyes started to tear up, she couldn't run, she couldn't fight. She can't do anything, she'll never make it. Her friends were down as well.

Aliya sat back and sighed, she looked up at the trees. Watching people suffer like this, seeing all the blood come out of their bodies, there was nothing that made her more sick. It's just horrible. She closed her eyes, she doesn't want to watch how they'd die. Shaydene, she doesn't care at all. Sometimes it actually looked like she enjoyed the killing.. But that's not possible, no one does..

"Ino, now!" Shikamaru gagged, which sounded like his last breath.

"Wha-!"

Shaydene was paralyzed, she couldn't move, but how?

"Mind transfer Juts-"

Just before she could finish her words, her hands creating the seal were pinned to the ground by a kunai. It went straight through her hands.
Ghost jumped out of the woods, showing himself.

Then the loudest scream Shaydene ever heard ringed her ears and catching Aliya off guard. She jumped and gawked at where it came from.

'Oh no, that poor girl! The kunai is pinning her hands down on the ground, it went straight through her hands!' Aliya held a hand before her mouth, already feeling nauseous.

Shaydene unblocked her ears once the screaming turned into crying,

"What scroll do you have and where is it?" She asked.

Ghost went into the pouch of Shikamaru and pulled out the Earth scroll, then holding it up so Shaydene can see.

Shaydene cheered, "good job Ghost! How did you know it was in there?" Her question was answered by silence. "Oh right, I see, well thanks for explaining."

Aliya came down where shaydene and Ghost were after she put her bow on her back again.

"Sorry, sorry, I have to get my arrows back. I'm sorry!" She apologized before slowly pulling out the arrow from Shikamaru and Chouji's side. She noticed the blood puddle beneath them, there's no way they can survive this even if she helps them now.. They've lost so much blood. She glanced over to Ino who was gritting her teeth from the pain.

"Ok guys, let's go, now we have both scrolls. We have to be quick before anyone comes. That girl screams loud as.." Shaydene sighed and started walking off.

Ghost put the scroll in his pouch with the other under his almost black, green robe and followed beside her.

"Ok, I'll catch up with you guys, I just need to do something." Aliya said with a innocent smile.

Shaydene snickered, "fine, we'll be just up there, don't kill yourself. As in, don't let someone kill you." She and Ghost ran off before aliya had a chance to nod.

Aliya made sure they were gone before she kneelt down beside the blonde girl.

"You're name is Ino, right?" She asked gracefully.

"What do you want.." Ino said in a weak, raspy voice.

Aliya slowly pulled out the needles from her ankles, then healing them with weak medical ninjutsu.

"Stay still, or this would be even more painful."

"I don't want your help! Get away from me!" Ino shouted and kicked Aliya in the stomach right after she healed her foot.

Aliya fell on her back, but a weak kick like that can't keep her down.

"Stop, let me help you, I hate seeing people like this." She whimpered, trying to calm Ino down. She got closer and pulled out the other needle while healing her.

Ino studied her outfit, she had a quiver on her back filled with arrows and a bow around it. She must've been the one who shot her comrades then.

Ariya slowly pulled out the kunai knife from her hand but held her tightly around the wrist, then began healing her palms.

"It's the best I can do, your comrades won't make it, I don't think, but at least you're alright. I'm sorry for your friends, but they attacked my friend so I had no choice." She stated.

Ino whimpered and sat up, she felt her palms, even though they were healed she still felt a shot of pain when she put pressure on them. Then she rotated her ankles to see if they're good enough to stand on.

"Thank you... But I won't forgive you." She crawled over to Shikamaru and petted his face. His cheeks were covered in blood and he was still choking and suffering.

Aliya didn't need to be forgiven, she left without saying a word and went after Shaydene who was waiting for her.

"Ino..." Shikamaru coughed, his eyes were closed from the pain.

"Shut up Shikamaru, don't talk, we have to get you out of here." Ino spat, "and Chouji too." But it didn't look like Chouji was breathing.

"No... In a few minutes I'll be dead, you have to get out of here, and quick.. The guys here are dangerous, so avoid anyone you can. Just get away from here." Shikamaru coughed a few more times, it felt like it was raining, but it was only ino's tears landing on his cheeks and mixing with the blood.
It was getting harder and harder to breath, the pain wouldn't go away and the blood wouldn't stop pouring into his throat, he felt his energy slowly draining.
He couldn't tell if his eyes were closed or if he just lost vision, then suddenly everything went quiet and the pain stopped.

"Ino... Go..." He forced out with his last breath, his body stopped shivering and fell silent.
