Tenten hated being tied up. Even worse, her friends were tied up too. 3 seconds is all that it will take, she promised herself watching her friend, Ino, fumble with the ropes tying her wrists together behind her back. 3.2…1! Ino dropped the rope to the carriage floor smiling triumphantly. "Done." she said smugly before moving behind Sakura's back and starting to untie her too.
Ino was amazing at that kind of stuff. She could pick a lock using her nails. Any of them could probably escape using chakra to cut the ropes, but they didn't for the fear of someone sensing it. After untying the pink haired girl, she moved on to Hinata, the youngest of the group. Hinata was 10 month younger then Tenten and Sakura, who were twins , a year younger then Rin her half sister, and 15 minutes younger then Ino, her twin.
After all the girls were untied, Sakura stood up from the dirty cold floor and turned to face her friends. Her expression was glum. Officially Sakura and Tenten were leaders of the group, Rin was older, but she wasn't a leader. She would jump off a cliff if any of the girls told her to do so, and it irritated them to no end. Sakura and Rin were healers, and they were good at what they did. Tenten on the other hand was a fighter. And the reason Sakura decided to going in to healing. If someone insulted Tenten's friends then they were either dead or hospitalized. With Tenten normally hurt in the process.
The carriage jolted slightly before stopping. The girls nodded to each other solemnly before moving to stand on either side of the door. The lock clicked and the door swung open revealing a tired looking guard. Before the he could process what he was seeing Tenten was on top of him hitting his pressure point, the way Sakura taught her.
"Nice" Sakura commented, "And now to get out..."

The girls were standing in a large country yard, surrounded by blooming cherry trees. "Hinata…" Tenten started. "I'm on it." Hinata confirmed, veins appearing around her lavender eyes. Hinata was basically the only reason the girls weren't executed for practicing to be shinobi yet. She had the power to conceal most of their chakra, and could see for miles around with her 'Moon syndrome' as the girls called it. She and Rin were so innocent; sometimes Sakura just couldn't see how they were related to Ino-boar.
Actually she was pretty sure Ino was adopted. They had the same dad, but sometime Sakura wondered about that. The girls looked nothing like each other. Although… It wasn't like she could ask him about it. He was better off dead anyway.
'Yeah, he doesn't have to put up with Ino…' Her inner said.
'Don't be mean' Sakura scolded her 'Anyway you can't talk. At least she met one of her parents.'
'Tchk, Whatever'
"There" Hinata pointed towards a thick set of bushes "Towards four O'clock, there is a wall surrounding this garden and a mansion towards Ten O'clock. If we move down there…" Hinata stopped talking suddenly, her eyes widening in fear.
Sakura didn't bother turning around, she could already see it in Hinata's eyes. Someone was standing behind them. She grabbed the shy girl's hand and ran, Tenten, Rin and Ino following closely behind. The group of five tore through the bushes ignoring the voice that called after them. This wasn't good and they knew it. But this wasn't the closest they have ever being to being executed. 'Ah well' Tenten thought as she ran. 'At least it can't get much worse'. How wrong she was…

Tenten grinned at her sister, feeling a trickle of blood roll down her cheek and drip to the ground. They made the mistake of underestimating the guards. Although some of them were seriously injured, Tenten was proud to say. The only thing Tenten wasn't pleased about was the fact was all five of them were lying tied up on the ground. 'I'll worrry about it later' Right now she had more important things to do. For example annoying her sister.
"See Sakura?" She teased "I told you I was stronger! You had two guards hospitalized and I had six! Lawl!" Sakura kicked her. Or at least attempted too. But the ropes tied around her body, way too tightly, restricted her from causing any damage. An extremely tired guard glared down at the five of them, Ino grinned at the bloody marks left on his face by her nails.
This was way too easy. Ino was already slicing through the ropes, her nails cutting the rough material like a knife through butter. Tenten smirked and glanced at her sister. "Three…" Sakura began. "Two…" Tenten continued. The guard looked at them confused. "One…" Rin and Hinata smiled looking triumphantly at their captor. "Boom" The girls completed, high fiving each other, over the guard's unconscious body.
"Close…" A voice sounded from above them, startling the girls. "But not quite."
The last thing Tenten remembered was a flash of brown, before she collapsed

Rin woke up in a very uncomfortable position. Her arms were tied up above her head and her neck hurt. She yawned and looked around. The girl was used to it. She couldn't remember how she was captured this time. Anyway, it happened too many times for her to keep track of all of them. Her friends were fixated on getting rid of slavery and she would follow them to the edge of the world if they desired it.
"I see you're awake" a voice said coldly to her right. "Hello" She smiled. Not quite able to make out a face in the shadows. "My name is Rin. What's yours?" She could almost feel the temperature drop. "My name. Is none of your business." Rin tilted her head. "O.K" she agreed. " It isn't". After thinking about it for a second she asked "Where are my friends?" A chuckle echoed through the room, it was cold and emotionless. "Friends? Slaves can't have friends. They'll stab you in the back as soon as its turned." Upon hearing this Rin laughed. Genuinely laughed. "I pity you" She said "If you have friends like that." Rin looked at the shadows in which the person was located. 'Probably a slave' She decided.
Her friends will be here soon. She wanted to use her chakra and go find them herself, but had a feeling the person it the shadows raise the alarm about her escape. Another chuckle rang through the room. " But do you honestly think I'm a slave?" Rin tried to make out the owner of the voice but still couldn't. "It's none of my business" She reminded him. The person in the shadows was quiet for a moment."Kakashi" He said. Rin raised an eyebrow. " The name is Kakashi" Rin nodded. Her friends were late. As always. " Sure" She agreed, her voice indicating that she thought she was talking to a little kid. A hand shot out of the darkness. Long, slim fingers wrapping around her neck. " And don't use that tone with me."
"Kakashi…" She whispered, her oxygen supply running out. "Its 'My Lord' to you." The hand retreated, giving her space to breathe. "Sleep." The voice commanded. Rin shrugged and complied. Her head dropping on to the wall with a soft thump. Her eyes closed. 'I love them and everything…' She thought. ' But can they be any quicker!? After all... We do have an important mission to complete. "
"Kakashi…" She called softly. "You haven't answered my question." There was a blank silence. " They're in a similar situation." He said expecting her to act concerned. She shrugged. "So that's what's taking them so long" Rin said closing her eyes again. She could wait. 'I can't believe he did that' Rin thought reffering to the way Kakashi tried to strangle her. 'Tenten will kill him.' She smirked, before realizing something. 'Oh crup! I'm going Ino! NOOOOOOOOOOOO!'
0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o00o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0
Tenten groaned and opened her eyes. Her hands were tied by her sides, her back leaning against something soft and warm. "Hinata?" She guessed. " " Hinata stuttered quietly. This told Tenten two things. Hinata's voice was extremely quiet which meant someone was in the room with them. The second thing was she realized, was that whoever it was, it was a guy. Otherwise Hinata wouldn't stutter. "Do we have a chance Hina?" She asked curiously, wondering whether they could just quickly cut the ropes, defeat whoever was in the room and escape. However she was surprised when a cold voice from somewhere behind her answered instead. "No, for one, there are two of us. Also, we are trained to deal with imposters like you." Tenten smirked. "Sure you are, little guy. Whatever you say."
Hinata flinched as the young man on the other side of the room got up and took a step in their direction. As soon as Tenten sensed her friend's fear she was on her feet, Hinata, still strapped to her back. Making a sharp turn she kicked out at their captor, her foot colliding with his palm. The next thing she knew, she was flying backwards, about to squish Hinata. Well she wasn't about to let that bastard hurt her friend.
Twisting her body sharply, She let her face collide with the floor, the wound on her forehead reopening. She looked up to see a guy standing over her. His long brown hair reaching just below the waist. His face solemn. Another boy pushed past him, he had blond spiky hair, and was wearing a black and orange ninja suit. He looked at the girls worriedly. "Oi, Teme be gentler." He told the bastard that pushed her. Tenten decided she liked him. After helping the girls get back in to a sitting position, He introduced himself. "My name is Naruto and I will be the next Hokagage after Lord Hanzo!" Tenten's face twisted in to a mask of hatred at the name. Naruto reared back at that expression "And this is Neji-teme!" He said, quickly changing the subject. Tenten's face became even more furious.
'This is going to be a long day' Hinata decided
0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0
Sakura woke up in to an unpleasant situation. As usual. Her left hand and foot were cuffed to Ino, who was sleeping like a log. She sighed. Seeing as she never went to school, she knew only a couple simple of equations. For example 'Waking up + Sleeping Ino = certain death.' So Sakura stretched using her free hand, and sat up, careful to not wake the sleeping bear. She was sure her friend will wake up in a few moments anyway.
The room she found herself in was the weirdest one yet, followed closely by that time she woke up dangling by her ankles off a cliff. This room however was even worse. It was shaped as a pentagon, and on the walls there were rows and rows of photos, pictures and masks. But the fact that all these artifacts were of the person she hated most, infuriated the girl. Heck, event the ceiling had the face of that Madara trucking idiot on it. "Danzo" She hissed, glaring at the pictures.
"You know…" A voice said lazily from behind her. "He isn't going to die if you glare at his pictures". Sakura looked at the person who said this. It was a young man sitting cross legged on the floor. His eyes closed. The thing that struck her as weird about him was the pineapple shaped head. On closer inspection it turned out that it was actually, only the hair shaped as a pineapple. His head was perfectly normal. After classing him as harmless, she glared at the pictures again. "Sadly." She muttered.
"What's this?" A cold voice said to her right. "Are you saying that there is something wrong with Lord Danzo?" Sakura was about to make a witty reply when suddenly her friend stirred, woken up by the sound of the cold voice. 'Oh, Crup!' Sakura thought as Ino sat up and her hand flew to the source of the irritating sound. Unfortunately that source was located right behind Sakura, which meant she was the one that ended up as Ino's target. The blonde's hand connected with Sakura's cheek, which in turn, became an amazing shade of crimson. The pink haired girl waited for a couple moments for her friend to realize what she has done. "Sakura?" Ino asked sleepily. "Did we get caught again?" Sakura rubbed her cheek and muttering a quick "yeah", turned around to face the cause of it.
It was a boy about her age, give or take a year, crouching next to her, his eyes emotionless. "Hey, chicken ass!" She greeted, referring to the way his hair was piled in a neat looking chicken ass the back. Ino looked at him too, and giggled slightly. "Hot ass, more like". Sakura ignored the comment and glanced at the other guy. "Oi, Pineapple head, whateveryournameis!" She called. The boy opened his eyes and looked at her lazily, "Shikamaru" he answered "And the other guy is Sasuke." Sakura looked at the said boy before realizing something. "You are an Uchiha." It wasn't a question so Sasuke decided not to answer. "You are Itachi's younger brother."Sasuke stood up and glared menacingly at the girls. "Yeah so what?"
The girls smirked remembering how they managed to escape from the ANBU, and lock Itachi in a cell. He didn't seem to mind though. He could probably easily escape and capture them, but the girls had a feeling he disliked Danzo as much as they did. "Nothing" Ino and Sakura chorused. Shikamaru glanced at them. "You're weird."He muttered. "It's called a personality" Ino started "Get one!" Sakura completed. Oh, the joy of pissing off people you don't like.

After, on lord Fugaku's orders, the guys made sure that their captives were tied up and had no ways to escape, they all gathered in the dining room to discuss why the heck Sasuke's father would want slaves such as those in the house. Naruto sat on the table swinging his legs carelessly. "They seem okay" He said. "Although Tenten is a bit scary". Sasuke who was leaning against a wall, let out a displeased "Hn, dobe, you find everything scary" To be rewarded by a shoe to the head, which he easily blocked. Kakashi shot them an angry look. It was obvious he was the leader, he was also the oldest. "Well, Rin, the one I got, was definitely no leader. Although, it does seem like she is a loyal follower." Naruto shot him a curious look. In battles Kakashi always killed the leader first. That was the best strategy in his opinion.
"It isn't Hinata either. Too shy, and follows instructions way too easily." He shared. "Could be Tenten though" Sasuke thought for a moment. "It could be Sakura or Ino. I didn't really get a good look at the latter so I'm not sure. Shikamaru spoke up. "There is a good reason for that." Sasuke looked at him confused. "Good reason for what?" Shikamaru sighed "This is such a drag." He cleared his throat before continuing "Ino. You didn't get a good look at her, because Sakura kept distracting our attention to herself. It almost seemed…" He glanced at Kakashi knowing their leader wouldn't believe what he was about to say. "Protective." To his surprise Kakashi, just nodded. "They don't care what happens to those who don't abide rules because they're worse than scum already." Neji looked at his friend. This was the first time Kakashi didn't badly criticize someone for breaking rules.
"So you have absolutely no idea why any of them are here?" Sasuke shook his head. "But…" He looked at his friends making sure he had their attention. "Apparently there is another slave arriving this evening, as well as Gaara of the desert" Naruto shook his head. It just didn't add up. "Why don't we just go and ask them?" He suggested. The rest of the group nodded. Kakashi as the leader decided that Rin would be the best choice.
After tying her up he locked her in a guest room with no windows. Just in case she got any ideas. Just as they made the last turn Kakashi stopped, getting Naruto to walk straight in to his back. The hyper active boy took a step back rubbing his nose. "Hey what's the big idea!?" He shouted. "I'm sure I locked the door" Kakashi muttered, ignoring the younger boy's loud complaints.
Opening the door he stopped in his tracks, expecting to see anything but what he did. "How did you!?..." He gasped.
