A/n: Hey guys. I'm back again with another Naruto fanfic. This one might be a little confusing, everythings different than the actual Naruto storyline. Enjoy!!!

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or any of the characters in it. Although, Li Haruno, Kai Nushandoi, Tiachoie and this fanfic are my creations, so I guess I own them. Yay!

Chapter 1

It was a crisp winters night. Everything was silent apart from the slight ripple of leaves across the ground. They lifted as the wind became increasingly harsh, and were soon scattered all over the dusty woodland path. The moon shone brightly and cast eerie shadows over the earth. The woods were serene, all life that had once been there had long since left. The silence was spooky, it seemed so unnatural. It was like these were times when nothing could move, and that a whisper on the wind would cause the whole world to collapse. Nothing was ever out of place. It was as if someone came around everyday to make sure that all was tidy. It had to be neat.

The village in the woods was home to few, but those who lived there loved it. There was never a wrong word said about this village, never a wrong word said about its inhabitants. They were all well known, all for good reasons, yet not many knew the whereabouts of the homes. There were no quarrels between neighbours, no arguments between friends. The village was a happy place, were all could live freely, yet even in the village of leaves, freedom does not come without a price.

All of the villagers were trained from a very young age. They trained morning till night to become the best and so they were ready for their missions. The training missions consisted of getting around unnoticed, shooting arrows, stars and other things at targets, as well as many other different tasks. People respected these trainees as much as the adults in the village. What they were doing was amazing for children of their age is what they'd say. They didn't have to train out of sight. They didn't have to hide who they are trying to become from the rest of the villagers. They didn't have to hide the fact that they are ninjas.

In the seemingly calm night woodlands, 6 of these ninjas were training. Sasuke Uchiha, Li Haruno, Itachi Uchiha, Kai Nushandoi, Kakashi Hatake and Sakura Haruno had been training all through the night. They had decided to play a game of hide and seek...with a twist. Everyone was trying to find everyone else at the same time as hiding from them all. This was a way to improve all their techniques whilst having a bit of fun. As everyday was a constant day of training there was hardly time for any amusement at all. Games were few and far between and humour was in short supply. The few times that games were played they had to be part of the training scheme and had to involve exercise. Hide and seek was the best game to fit this description, so it was the only game the team ever played, thanks to sensei.

There were times when the ninjas resented their sensei, Anko. She was only young, the same age as the Genin, but she was a great ninja warrior, of the Jonin variety. Jonin was one of the highest ninja ranks. They were qualified to lead squads of Genin or Chunin on missions of different ranks. The 6 Genin in Anko's squad enjoyed her company but hated her strict training routine. They once wanted to lead a more normal life, but of course, they soon realised that to be ninja, you have to leave your normal lives behind.

Anko was overseeing the current training exercise when she sensed a sudden drop in the temperature. She knew what it meant. He was here. The Genin were in danger but what did he want with them. Who was he after.

"No! It can't be! Why do they want him? Why now? His training is incomplete? He couldn't be after both of them! No! That's not it! I'm coming! I'll help you!!! Ahhhhhhhhh!!!!"

Someone grabbed her from behind.

"Darling. You thought that you could save him. No-one can! He's mine for the taking. But before I leave my number one, I think I'll leave my mark somewhere else. You'll never defeat me so you aren't worth the trouble of destroying you. The village hidden in the leaves will fall to me, Tiachoie, your old sensei's...well, you'll find out soon. And even you, my elite darling, cannot stop me from achieving my goals."

Anko was confused. She knew who he was and why he was here, but she had never had anything to do with him. The only person who's number one I was was...Before she could think the situation through anymore,Tiachoie bit into her neck. She cried out in pain as he sunk his teeth in deeper with each passing second.

"You can't take...him. I won't let...you. I...won't."

She gave one last cry of pain and hung limp in Tiachoie's arms. Her hair fell over her tender skin. Tiachoie led her down gently on the floor and carefully brushed her hair away from her face.

"I'm sorry, darling. I had to stop you from getting in my way. No-one can stop my plans. I'm so sorry. I'm sorry to have to leave you here. I'm sorry, but you won't survive."

He knelt down next to her and gave her a swift kiss on the forehead.

"Goodbye Anko."

He stood up and chuckled.

"If my departed brother could only see me now. He'd be so angry at me for treating her like that. I just hope she figured it out. Anyway, that's part one of my revenge over."
