Disclaimer: It's called Fanfiction for a reason.
Last Chapter:
"Alright we will go in two different groups. Kiba you're in the front, then Shikamaru, Ino you're after Shikamaru and Neji you're in the back.
Shikamaru you're in charge of your group. My group will be consisted of me in front, then TenTen in the middle and finally Hinata at the back. We will use these to communicate. (A/N those mikes you talk in to and have an ear piece in your ear.) Contact my group if you cme across anything. We will split up in 2 different directons that way we won't e caught of our gaurd. Please be careful."
With all that said the two groups split up and headed off into differernt directions.
Chapter 2:Team Haruno made its way through the forest slowly drifting apart. The two groups were far away from each other now. Then Sakura's group found something they would rather have not found this soon.
"It's Itachi. Everyone hide yourselves amongst the trees. I will contact Shikamaru. Hinata keep your eye on him, i don't want him getting away."
"Hai." Hinata and TenTen moved out and hid while Sakura hid in a high tree and communicated with Shikamaru.
"Shikamaru we have found Itachi."
"Sakura we can't help you. We ran into Kisame. They split up. Somehow they knew we would so they did as well. Can you handle him?"
"Yeah……just be careful. We will meet up at Konoha. Make sure your group gets there in one piece." Sakura growled her last few words and then went to where her group was hiding.
"Alright we are on our own. They split up so we have to take him alone. Then we will meet up with them at Konoha. Be careful you guys. I will make the first move. If I am badly wounded both of you take him."
"Ok but you be careful as well. Itachi is stronger than Kisame."
"Mhhm" Sakura's answer was muffled as she made her way to the ground.
"Another ANBU captain I get to slaugter oh and it's a girl. I think I'll have some fun before I kill her."
Before Sakura could react he had pulled her hood down and had a kunai to her throat.
What he didn't know was that she was prepared for this fight. She escaped him easily but her disguise was ruined. The only thing left for him to remove was her mask.
"Surprised to see me?" Sakura gave a questioned look as she turned her head towards the voice.
"Hmm……who is it that has pink hair? I can't seem to remember! Why don't you take that mask off for me and let me see your face?" He was screwing with her but she remained perfectly calm only on the inside was she slowly beginning to panic.
"I don't know what you want but i won't let you acheive your mission.
"Ahh I see so that's how it is, but let me ask you one more thing. Do you know what happened on this day exactly 2 years ago?"
Sakura's answer was silence.
"So you don't. Then it's no surprise that you weren't surprised to see me. Hmm aren't you supposed to be weak? Always needing protection? But seeing your uniform I must be wrong. This might be funner than I thought.
Sakura gulped but showed no sign of fear. She knew he was strong. As she thought of a last minute plan to defeat Itachi she failed to notice the smirk forming on his lips. Something was going on and it was right under her nose only she didn't know it. The only one's that noticed the smirk was a worried Hinata and a nervous TenTen.
"Hinata..."
Flash Back
Hinata made her way to another tree as Sakura grabbed TenTen's wrist.
"TenTen I can already tell what's going to happen. As soon as you get the chance make your way back to Konoha. Be careful ok. Don't let him see you. I will be alright so don't stick around. You need to inform Tunade-Sama to be prepared for something close to a war."
A tear rolled down TenTen's face as she answered her captain and friend.
"But what if you don't make it out alright?"
"I will. Have faith in me! I can take care of myself." Sakura smirked once she saw the expression on TenTen's face. It was priceless.
"Alright……I will inform Tsunade-Sama of our news and Akatsuki's plan. As soon as we figure it out Hinata and I will head out. Just be careful."
"One more thing…Take care of Hinata since she can't handle real rough situations try to make it out as soon as possible. I will try to get answers from him before our gruesome fight."
After words and tears were shared TenTen made her way to the tree as did Sakura awaiting their next choice of what to do?
End Flash back
"Sakura can take care of herself. We need to inform Tsunade of the situation and there plan." Hinata grew impatient as she watched TenTen speak.
"O-ok….but f-first let's hear h-his plan. T-t hen t-tell Tsunade- S-Sama." Hinata trembled as she looked at the young raved haired S-ranked criminal.
"Alright once we are at the gates I want you to contact Shikamaru's group. I will inform Tsunade-Sama of the plan and then meet up with you back at the gates. Be ready to fight."
"Hai." A tear rolled down Hinata's face as she used her Byakugan.
Meanwhile
Shikamaru stood there gasping for breath. He had used too much chakra but he needed to win. He looked to his left to find Ino lying on the ground bleeding. He looked to his right to find Kiba on Akamaru's back unconscious. Then he looked behind him. Neji was still conscious and wouldn't give up not without a fight to the death. Shikamaru gave a quick glance at Neji while Neji nodded in agreement. They had come up with a plan and not a moment too soon. "Take Ino to Tsunade…..and quick. I'll take care of Kiba."
Neji's reply was a nod as he picked up Ino leaving Shikamaru behind to face Kisame.
(A/N I'm just gonna skip the fight scene since not much happens)
Shikamaru defeated Kisame and just in the nick of time. He was almost out of chakra. He had enough to get him back to Konoha quickly. Akamaru and Shikamaru took off leaving Kisame badly wounded or so it would seem.
"What are your motives? What or who do you want from Konoha?" The young rosette haired kunoichi asked.
"Not much. All i will tell you is that it has nothing to do with my foolish little brother or the Jinchuuriki or Konoha really. What my objective is... to capture you Haurno Sakura.
Sakura gasped but showed no sign of fear. She took her fighting stance and look towards TenTen and Hinata.
TenTen saw Sakura look their way and knew it was time to inform Tsuande. As much as she didn't want to leave she had to, for Konoha's sake. TenTen and Hinata looked at eachother and silently ade their way towards Konoha.
