In the land of the sound, four residents woke up every morning to the same pissed off voice.

"Jirobo you fat piece of lard! Where the #e!! is my breakfast?!" Sakon, Ukon, Kidomaru, and Jirobo woke with a start. "Coming Tayuya!" "Impossible girl!" he muttered. Once everyone had showered, dressed and eaten Jirobo's "delicious breakfast", they continued their regular Saturday. Tayuya ate her sushi from MoMo's. (She never ate Jirobo's food after she looked at it.) The sound four had a cat named Neko. Tayuya found Neko in an alley on one of her patrols. She had a soft spot for cats. "Seems impossible" Sakon once muttered. That earned him a nice black eye.

In the afternoon, Kabuto came down to tell them that they had an two assignments. One about the Chunin exams and one about an Uchiha .

-After Battle-

Every breath hurt. Tayuya couldn't feel her legs. She struggled, but interrupted by Kidomaru's voice. "Don't struggle. I've contacted Sakon, somehow he survived too. Even Jirobo, can you believe it? It has got to fate that saved us from those leaf brats. Don't worry, when they get here, we'll get this tree off you. You won't be a cripple. We'll heal you! I swear we will! Oruchimaru will kill us if we go back, but we won't. Think about it! We could start our own village! Have our own system! We could be great! After all this time, we are finally free! Free, Tayuya! At last, free." Tayuya finally slipped back into unconsciousness with a smile on her face.
