Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto


Chapter Three

They all woke around dawn. Yamato was making breakfast while the others decided to go out and train a little to loosen their muscles up for the upcoming days. They all came in just as he was finishing up.

Soon everyone was done and they were on their way again but this time they were going a little slower considering they were ahead of schedule. They reached the area where Tsunade informed them to meet Jiraiya around noon and he wasn't expected there till dusk. So they set up camp and decided to wait and try and relax.

Jiraiya was just about to meet up with the team Tsunade sent when he heard commotion behind him. He turned to see, Pakkun.

"Oh, uh hey Pakkun. Is Kakashi close?"

"Yes he asked me to keep an eye out for you so I could inform him when you were here. Follow me."

As Jiraiya followed Pakkun back to the campsite, he was contemplating on how to break the news to the team. He knew Tsunade would send the best and the best happen to be them. He knew their heartache after what Sasuke did to them and he hoped they would be able to complete the mission and not let him get to them.

As he reached camp he saw them waiting in a circle for him ready for his reports of Sasuke. He sighed knowing full well that he would have to brief them now or risk the threat of hurt, and the latter most likely happening, he knew of Sakura's temper. But he has a surprise for all them, that no one would see coming.

**Flashback**

"Are you sure you're not suspected?"

"Very, the know nothing of my betrayal. Now you have all the information I gave you?"

"Hai."

"Good. In a weeks' time he'll be at his weakest so that's when they need to strike. I'll fight back against you until the last moment when he's about to go down. Agreed?"

"Hai. Do you want me to tell them? I will have to tell Tsunade but what about the others?"

"No. I will when the fights over."

"Ok, but they may try and kill you."

"I know but they can't." and with that the betrayer disappears.

'I wonder if they'll notice something is up when we start fighting. I hope he truly isn't suspected otherwise this won't work.' And then Jiraiya disappears into the night to get this plan ready before the week is up.

**End of Flashback**

(A/N: ok so you may have figured out who the betrayer is, it's not hard. But if you haven't go me.. It should be revealed in the next few chapters.. hopefully..)

'He better be ok, or else I'm going to die.'

Sakura watched as Jiraiya was coming and sitting down in front of the fire, she knew he knew he had to tell them now. Because he knew what she could do to him if the mood took her.

Sighing as he sat down, he got ready to tell them the information he acquired. "As you all know that Orochimaru is planning on attack Konoha, now I have a reliable source inside his hideout don't even ask me who because I will not tell you. I was told that in a weeks' time he will be at his weakest, and that was a week ago tomorrow. So you see we have to move quick." He took a drink of tea as he let what he said to sink in. They all looked determined and were waiting patiently for him to continue.

"Orochimaru has quite a few followers with him in his hideout, along with Sasuke, but somehow he'll be at his weakest tomorrow around three. We have until then to come up with a plan. I think I should personally deal with him myself, but I'll hash that out with yall and we'll find a course of action."

They all nodded, they knew that Kakashi, Yamato and Jiraiya would come up with the best plan for them to take. As those three started talking about it Sakura decided to get up and look for a stream to wash up a bit, it's been a while since she had a decent bath.

"I'm going to a stream and wash up a bit." She states.

"Don't be long, we're too close for you to be careless." Says a worried Kakashi.

"I will Kakashi, I know better."

"Mhm"

As she's walking towards the stream she feels as if someone is watching her, she hopes its not Naruto or Sai for their sake because she would literally kill them. She didn't think it would be Sai, he's a little unemotional so why would he? It would most likely be Naruto, he's turning into a younger Jiraiya. Training with him for over two years would do that to someone, she thinks as she quickly slips into the stream so as to her watcher wouldn't she her. As she's slowly starting to relax she doesn't sense someone coming up behind her.

'Either she's too relaxed or she's just playing like I'm not here so she can surprise me.' Thinks her watcher, 'well what should I do?' he asks as he debating on whether or not to surprise her or leave her. He goes for the first, seeing as how this would be a chance to actually surprise the ever observant kunoichi.

"Enjoying your bath?" ask the watcher.

She yells and turns around to see……..
