PROLOGUE

"Please son I'm begging you…I'm…I'm g..Going to double whatever they paid you please…" the fat man begged as he sat in a sofa like a sack of beans. His assailant who was not more than thirty looked at him; his expression was flat…there was no mercy in his eyes.

"I don't need your money just tell me where I can find him." The assassin said flatly. The fat man shifted uneasily in his seat, he swallowed sweating profusely like ice.

"I…I don't know what you are talking about…I can lie to you …"

The assassin slowly fixed in the silencer of his .45 colt, he looked at his prey without compassion. He needed to know where the killer of his entire clan was hiding.

"S-see I've got kids…I 'm a father…I have a wife…she is young." The fat man wept. The assassin pointed his gun at the fat man aiming at his head.

"I'm not going to ask again Tyler."

"Ok... ok I'll talk" the fat man swallowed. The assassin dropped his gun hand. He tilted his head on one side to hear what the fat man was about to say."Ok…I saw him last night at…" the fat man sniffled.

" where?"

"The Black House." The fat man answered. The assassin knew it was a lie but every information was useful in his sight. He knew the Black House was the den of some illegal gun dealers, Itachi was not a gun dealer but a drug dealer. He had always wondered why his brother killed everyone, he needed some explanations. He had to find him at all cost or else he wouldn't stop killing.

The assassin didn't say a word.

"I…I'm telling you the truth."

The assassin leveled the gun at the fat man.

"no please don't…" his cry was cut short as the assassin shot him in the head as his blood splattered the walls behind his head. Feeling no remorse the assassin backed out of the room silently.

CHAPTER 1

Naruto looked around the crime scene; his lips formed a thin line. The medics had not carried the body away, the forensics were dusting everywhere for fingerprints. Soon Shino, Hinata and Shikamaru walked in ,without turning his back.

"it's him again." Naruto said calmly. The job was a clean one , it was clueless. That was Sasuke's style; there was no doubt about it. Shino looked round with his hands in his pocket.

"this is the tenth in two weeks…what's his motive?" Naruto faced them .

"n-naruto calm d-down." Hinata said quietly.

"What else would it be for? Revenge." Shikamaru spoke flatly.

"He is crazy. Totally crazy." Naruto was getting angry.

"n-naruto c-calm down…"

They have been unable to get any information about sasuke's whereabouts, he never leaves any clue for him to be traced. That was the most annoying part. This was because sasuke was formally an inspector in the wooden leaf police force, he was in the same team with naruto and sakura headed by kakashi and was far better than naruto in all ramifications as regards the police force. When sasuke's clan was massacred by his brother itachi ,the police found it hard to find itachi but sasuke was soon impatient he decided to put laws in his hands by killing anybody connected to itachi.

One of the forensics brought an ID card in a rubber bag.

"You need to see this…" the woman announced as she passed the bag to shino.

"Tyler McGregor…"

"Do you know him?" naruto asked puzzled.

Shikamaru put his hands behind his head. "He was once arrested for illegal weapon possession and rape ."

"w-why would s-sasuke k-kill this man? " hinata asked the same question everyone has their minds.

Sakura stood in front of Tsunade her mentor, there was worry written all over her face. Tsunade crossed her fingers on her table, looking intently at sakura. That moment tsunade's personal assistant walked in hurriedly, then she whispered into the older woman's ear before hurrying out again.

"sakura haruno I'm assigning you to the child trafficking issue I need answers in two days." Tsunade ordered.

"I want sasuke's case…I can make a difference in two days." Sakura said in a bid to convince her superior. Tsunade shook her head slightly.

"it's too dangerous for you girl. Sasuke is crazy."

The truth was that she loved sasuke and she wants him back, but his crimes were enormous to make her scared , she was blinded by the love.

"I know…but I can bring him back." She said.

"interesting." Tsunade understood her plight. "Ok I'd see what I can do maybe team seven can live again."

Sakura smiled and saluted tsunade. She was so happy but she was going to team up with Naruto again .

"bad luck" she said to herself. "why not Rock Lee ?"

i hope you are impressed…please review … thanks a lot… e she pupo.
