Kakashi sat by the dying campfire, keeping watch and musing.. He was about to put another log on the fire when he froze, hearing noise off in the distance. He quickly woke up Naruto and Sakura. They both looked at him and he pointed at his ears, indicating they were to listen.
Slowly noises made themselves heard. They could here the soft pounding of feet, the occasional shout, rasped breathing, getting closer with every minute.
Being ninja's thy were naturally on guard in seconds. The sounds came easily now, . Suddenly a boy of ten burst through the bushes. Before they could over there shock he slipped past them. He flipped over the fire and spun as he landed, causing dirt to spray over it and put it out. The he kept on dashing.
As he disappeared through the other side of camp two ruff looking me came bursting in from were the boy had just come from. They were obviously men of battle, judging by there scars and swords.
Kakashi acted swiftly. "Sakura retrieve and contain that boy, Naruto your with me, we want them alive." Everyone sprang into action. Naruto and Kakashi jumped at the men, Kunai's drawn while Sakura took off in the opposite direction.
She saw him running up ahead and sped up. Once she was above him(she was using the tree branches) she dropped down in front of him.. He jumped backwards in surprise but quickly took a defensive stance.
She was surprised by his reaction speed but said in a calm voice. "calm down , there's no need to get ruff. I want to help you but I'm going to need you to come with me." her voice could have soothed a bawling baby to sleep but he didn't even falter.
"Move!" he commanded.
"Try and make me." She retorted. Of course she didn't expect him to actually make her, after all she was a chunnin, apprentice to one of the legendary three, while he was a kid, not even old enough to be a gennin.
Instead he took up a stance she hadn't seen before. He slid his left leg a few inches in front of his shoulder, first two finger pointing at the middle spot between his legs. His right leg was just behind it's respective should with his right arm at a 45 degree angle to the ground, pointing up and leaving him open.
"Sakura" Kakashi appeared behind the boy causing him to silently curse. Whiles his attention was averted Sakura performed a quick genjutsu. The boy instantly fell asleep.
