A/N: Hello! I am fixing this story so bear with me for a little while! I am making changes that I hope make sense to everyone reading! Thank you for reading and I hope to make the story better for your reading enjoyment. I am very sorry to my old reader... this is how many times I've changed it? Too many, but I will work quickly. There are going to be a lot of little things that have changed, some place have not been touched. But the changes I've made are going to be important.

Anyway please ask questions and leave some thoughts!

Chapter 1: Copy Group

The Past:

I remember a few things. I remember the crying and the fighting. I remember the dark eyes. The eyes that haunt me. Eyes that never leave my mind. Eyes that I want to run away from. I never knew about eye like those, no one else has made me feel that way.

I am scared.

I run through the woods. I can hear the fighting. I was told not to look back.

A man drops down in front of me.

"Where do you think you're going little girl?" he asks.

I stumble back. I can't stay here. I was told to get back to the leaf. I have to get to the leaf. I have to let the Hokage know what happened. Mother told me of the horrors, that we should be in the leaf, not in this place.

Another person drops in front of me. Uncle.

"Tooru get out of here! Send help! Remember the way here the best you can! I know you can do it!" Uncle says before he attacks.

I try to get up, I fall several times.

I run the whole way. I have to save my family. Even if I'm just a little girl.

May 10th:

I walk into the village, shaking the memory from my mind. I shouldn't be thinking of when I first entered the village long ago, when I was told I had to come here to save my family.

No, don't think about it.

I am just retuning from a mission. A mission that takes a lot of energy out of me. One that I am the only one allowed to work on. This mission is the only mission I am working on at the moment. As I was coming back I thought I felt chakra but I blamed the tired state I am in, none of them knew I was there. I look around the village.

The Hidden Leaf is peaceful and it has been for two years, since Naruto, Sakura, Saskue and Kakashi brought the Fourth Great Ninja to an end. The great war that allowed for all the hidden villages to come together. Only, there are still secrets that the hidden villages keep from each other.

I sigh, these thoughts should not be in my head. Pesky thoughts like this are what Lord Third told me to keep away.

It is almost 2 am, but I must report to Lord Sixth, Kakashi Hatake, before I can maybe go to sleep. I did send word about my expected time of arrival to Lord Sixth. But there is no way for me to know if I will go to sleep. I feel the automatic movements of my body and my mind begins to go blank.

"He is waiting for you." Tenzo, or also known as Yamato to everyone else except a few people.

I nod, not wanting to speak since most people in the Hidden Leaf are asleep.

I follow Tenzo to the Hokage's office. My hands are behind my back, I feel so natural but Tenzo gives me a look and I understand that I look too uptight. We climb the stairs while I look straight ahead. We open the door to his office, only to see him fast asleep on his desk.

Tenzo and I look at each other, Tenzo gives me a look of sorrow and walk over to Kakashi. But I know that Kakashi needs to sleep, I was punished a lot for bugging lord third about things in the early hours of the morning. Lord Third sat down and had a very long conversation with me about it. To this day I never try to wake anyone up.

"Kakashi, she is back." Tenzo gently shakes Lord Sixth awake.

"Oh good send her in," Lord Sixth looks at Tenzo and yawns.

Tenzo gives Lord Sixth a frown and replies, "Sir, she already is" Tenzo points over to where I am standing.

"Hello," Kakashi sleepily looks over at me, "I am ready to hear you report." He wipes away the sleep from his eyes. "Re-mind me of your mission'" Kakashi grabs a pen and paper with another yawn.

"I was spying on the copy group and try to understand their motives. What I am still puzzled about is when they exactly formed. Their motives are still unclear, along with their members. I do know that these are powerful ninja, since there is 14 we can assume, though I hate to assume on this it is the best I have, that they meet around the Fourth Great Ninja War. Though I do know there are 2 sensory type ninja and that each member possesses a high level amount jutsu's. So far there are no known rouge ninja and by the looks of it they may be a part of a village." I explain.

I stand at attention, forgetting everything else that I have learned other than the group I have been following. I forget being tired and speak, almost as though I am outside of my body. A habit, no a rule to follow. Always something to follow.

"Do you believe that any of them are from the leaf?" Lord Sixth leans on the desk, becoming attentive to the information.

"As far as I can tell no: but none wear head bands during any of these meetings. At first they did wear the Allied Shinobi Forces head bands but they haven't for the last few meetings. They talk in very hushed voices, which make it very hard, even with amazing hearing. Every now and then they exchange files, which this meeting they did. I can only assume that they are copied to not raise suspicion. They need to be very high in ranks, those who can get these files. Only there are a few things that puzzle me about everything. Right now though they seem to be getting ready for something that is going to grow very quickly; and these files are going to be given out at the next meeting. The last files were given out and I could not see anything that was written on them," I pause, taking a breath, "and after they left I tried to follow one but I was unable to track them past a few meters."

"When is their next meeting?" Kakashi asks.

"In three weeks. One of them has a mission. In the three weeks everyone has to get information on ANBU that are highly specialized that aren't well known, such as myself. Causing me to think that they want to do something with power, what they want though is unclear. I have a very bad feeling about this group my lord; this group might have something very different planned than those they are following. Since they do have files we should maybe plant one or two fake files, but we wouldn't know. Maybe after I figure out what they are looking for next meeting. I did get that they want chakra, they talked about it a lot," I reply.

"Good job Tooru." Kakashi waves his hand dismissing me.

I bow and walk out of the office. Walking down the stairs and making a left to go home. A familiar route I take every day when I go to the office.

Man, I am tired. Not sleeping for three days takes a toll on a person. Not to mention that I have to remember as much of the information as I can from the meetings. I sigh and listen to my feet hit the ground. The streets are so quiet, not even a cat is walking around. I look up at the clear sky, all the stars are bright. I make another turn to go home, my only goal is to go to bed. I need to sleep for a good few hours and then actually do things.

I only allow myself a few hours of sleep a night. But if I cannot sleep I go through information or go train. Which is normal and no one has asked me any questions yet. I know that I need to focus and that is what I am doing. I was too late for them… my family but I will not do the same thing for the village.

Though, it does hurt me in the long run there is nothing that I can do to change it. I have to focus more on what is going on right now. I have a duty to my village and I do not plan on bringing any harm to it. If anyone gets hurt when I am calling the shots, I cannot even think about what will happen to me as a punishment. But, I don't think will come tonight, even if Lord Sixth commanded me to sleep, it would make it hard.

I turn the corner and see my house. I look at it. Tenzo stayed with Kakashi, they are probably talking about what is going on. I only know that this group is bad news. Trying to get information out of these guys is just as bad if not worse than any other group. Their meetings make sense and the members are mysterious. Everything about them adds up, but at the same time it doesn't add up at all. Nothing about them is useful.

I open the door, remaining silent. I have things to do, things that can't wait until the morning. I take off my shoes and walk toward my room. The house is spotless, I already know this Unless Tenzo left something in the sink, which he knows he should clean up. Rules are rules. I cannot break them, so Tenzo cannot either.

I open my door and walk in. Once I set down my bag I look to my shelf, I pull out a notebook, this is to keep track of the information I have about the group. I read it over.

14 members.

Spiritic meeting.

High level?

From different villages.

No head bands.

Chakra.

Name? Cannot hear.

What do they want? What is their end goal? Are they going to try to take over the world and take away the peace that the world has been feeling?

Targets?

I write in, they need information, information on people who are high level and are unknown except to the Kage's.

Still, this doesn't explain anything. The position that these ninja are in is too great. Do they believe that they can take out the world with the villages being united in a way that has never happened before? None of the five Kage's would allow for that to happen.

Not to mention that the fact of the matter is that these ninja are traitors. The ninja that are involved are committing a great crime. They want to destroy the peace that is in the world, and for what? For once life has been easy, almost to where lady fifth was going to let me go out and meet new people, but now I have to worry about this group.

Unlike any one would talk to me anyway. I am still an outsider.

I still failed. Uncle told me to run and I did, but I didn't run fast enough.

I shake my head. This is not the moment to be thinking about such things. Those are things that should never be brought up.

Why people with high levels of jutsu? They want power and is this what they need to further their plans? But information that the Kage's only know. Now that is going to be hard to do since this kind of information is under lock and key. Getting the information seems like a lot to do, and to get this kind of information in three weeks too. They have their work cut out for them. No way is this type of information going to be out in the open like that.

Meaning I have a lot of work in terms of planning.

I sit back in my chair. I need to think this through, but I am having a hard time pulling any new information out from the meeting's, they can go months without meeting. But if there are people in the village connected to this group than I could pull information from them, only I have no idea who it is. Anyone could be in this group, which is making things harder. Their group is so big that I have no idea what is happening to cause them to act like this.

Do they know they are being followed? Have I failed? No, they would have come after me by now if that was the case.

I stand up for my desk and put away the notebook.

I need to figure out what these people want. I don't know what is going to happen in a time like this. I know for a fact that this work will be hard. If Kakashi puts someone with me than all they can do is help. I refuse to let anyone come on a mission with me outside of the village. Because no one has for a long time.

I glace at the clock, almost four in the morning. I shouldn't leave the house, Tenzo would be mad if I left. He has special orders to make sure I try to sleep. Which doesn't work most of the time. I get four hours in max since that is the minimum someone needs to survive. Tenzo just makes sure I don't leave the house in the middle of the night.

Speaking of I feel his chakra coming into the house. I look out of my room and see him walking to his room which is across from mine. I lean against my doorframe and watch him. I need to talk it out wit someone.

I know Tenzo is allowed to know about this. So I can talk with him about it and get a better handle on things. But it is polite to see how someone else's day was first.

"Hard day?" I ask.

"Tooru, can we not do the brainstorming right now?" he asks.

I mentally flinch, Tenzo is close with Kakashi, if anything happens it will get back to Kakashi. Something that I don't want to happen, because that could mean a punishment.

"What do you mean?" I tilt my head.

Tenzo sighs, "Every time you come home ask how hard my day to week was and I tell you. Than you manage to turn around the conversation to talking about your mission. And we stay up until the sun comes up, I have a mission to leave for in a few hours and I would like to sleep."

There is a pause. I know, but he helps me. I need help for once, and Kakashi said I could ask for help. Normally Tenzo does help me.

"You usually help me though…" I mumble.

"I'm not in this mission, this is yours. I shouldn't know this much. Good night," Tenzo shuts his door.

I slink back into my room. I… I should try to sleep I guess. I haven't slept in about three days. I lay down on my bed and stare at the ceiling.

I don't know what they want, and I have no idea how I am going to figure it out.
