Chapter four
Meeting the Kazekage
Sasuke jumped away from the wall in surprise. He then looked at his friends to make sure they heard it to. They were all looking wide eyed at the wall except Naruto who missed it and was just looking confused at the others. Then Shikamaru walked up to the wall.
"We are ninjas sent here from Konoha to retrieve the Kazekage's three children. Now, who the hell are you" said Shikamaru in a semi formal voice.
"Oh, we have been waiting for you please come in before you are spotted by those damn sound Nin" said a commanding voice.
Then the sand at there feet moved away and a stair case appeared. They walked down them and opened a door leading to a dark room.
The room was cold. There were two Sand Nin guards sitting in the room. On the opposite side of the room there were two doors side by side. With all of the eight teens and the guards it the tiny room it was cramped.
One of the guards walked to one door and told them to follow. They were walking down a dimly lit hallway. The guard opened a door and they all walked into a bed room. Nine beds with a small table in between each lined one wall of the room. There was also a desk in the room. The floor was dark green carpet and the walls were off white along with the ceiling.
"The Kazekage will meet with you tomorrow morning. This is where you all will be staying. The bathroom is strait across the hall" the guard said and left the room closing the door behind him.
"What the hell this place is big enough. Why didn't they give us our own rooms" Ino said throwing herself on a random bed.
"I wonder why there are nine beds" said Sakura counting the beds again.
"One was for Kiba kun" said Hinata
"I wish Kida was here he always makes things more interesting" said Naruto as he sat on the bed nearest the door.
Shino walked across the room and sat on the last bed. Hinata jumped on the bed beside Naruto. Then the rest of the ones standing found a bed.
Soon every one was fast asleep. Naruto was sleeping closest to the door, Hinata beside him, No one between Hinata and Ino, Sakura beside Ino, Sasuke next to her, and then came Shikamaru, Choji, and Shino.
XxxxxxxX
"Get up you lazy teens" said an older lady walking into the room pushing a cart of food. The smell instantly woke up Choji who ran over to the lady and hugged her.
"Ok, every one has a set on the floor and this nice young man will give you a tray of food" said the old lady smiling at Choji.
Every one walked lazily over to the middle of the floor. Choji quickly gave every one food so he could start eating his own. Then the older lady left to deliver food to other people.
"What the hell. Why do we have to eat on this stupid floor" complained Ino as she opened her tray to see some kind of sand country breakfast dish.
"Aww I wanted roman not this nasty looking stuff' said Naruto pushing the tray away from him.
"It's ok, really Naruto, just try it" said Hinata taking another bite of her food.
"Hey, Naruto, if your not going to finish that then you can always give it to me" said Choji just finishing his and looking at Naruto's hungrily.
"Naruto you better eat and get some strength because you never know what troublesome things are in store today" said Shikamaru sighing just thinking about it.
"Ok, ok fine I'll try it but if I don't like it I'm giving it to Choji" said Naruto taking his tray back.
"Hey Naruto is it any good" asked Sasuke pushing the food around on his tray.
"Just eat it, gosh your so picky" said Sakura elbowing him in the ribs.
"It … great try… Sasuke" said Naruto with a stuffed mouth.
"Hm…figures" said Shino taking a bit of his food.
XxxxxxxX
Everyone had taken a shower and was sitting around in their room waiting for someone to show up to tell them what to do or were to go.
"Oh my god, we have been waiting around here for ever. Sasuke what time is it" complained Sakura who was lying on her bed staring at the ceiling in boredom.
"It's five minutes till noon" said Sasuke glancing at his watch on his wrist.
"I'm going to go to that room we came from last night and ask if they remember we're still here" said Naruto stomping towards the door in frustration.
As soon as he got to the door it opened and there stood the Kazekage himself looking sternly at Naruto. Naruto took a few steps back so the Kazekage could enter the room.
"Please come with me to my office so we can discus this mission" the Kazekage said and motioned for them to follow.
He led them down the same hallway they had went down the previous night. Then he opened the door that lead to the small dark room with the two guards. He opened the second door to reveal a staircase going downward. When the all reached the bottom of the stairs they were in a hallway similar to the other but more fancy. They walked to the very end were two more guards stood in front of a large door.
"Father, when are we …"asked a girl from her bedroom door who looked shocked to see a bunch of teens in her house.
"This is one of my children you will be protecting" said the Kazekage looking at the girl who still had a shocked expression on her face.
"But sir, she looks perfectly capable to take care of herself" said Naruto looking at the girls strong looking arms.
If she kicked or hit me it would probably hurt worse than Ino Naruto shuttered just thinking about it.
"Don't talk about me right in front of my face" screamed the girl as she slammed the door.
"Women" said Shikamaru under his breath.
Ino heard him and hit him hard on the shoulder. He just looked at her in bewilderment and held his arm in pain.
The guards moved away from the door and every one walked in to the office. There were eight chairs sat up in front of the desk. The Kazekage sat down behind the desk and motioned for everyone else to sit as well.

"First off, I would like to thank you all for risking your lives to come here. Now, The only reason I need you to help escort my children to Konoha is because, Gaara is very ill and very weak right now." The Kazekage sighed and continued "After the Akatsuki Organization extracted Shukaku (one tailed raccoon dog) from Gaara's body he has been sick."
"But shouldn't he be dead" asked Naruto who would know of course since he also had a demon inside of him.
"Gaara was revived by a person by the name of Chiyo-baa-sama. Who risked her own life and died" said the Kazekage shaking his head sadly.
"Will Gaara be able to walk or will he have to be carried" questioned Shikamaru who was really hoping he could walk.
"Oh good question… I am guessing he can probably walk but if he can't I'm sure Kankuro and Temari can help him" said the Kazekage.
Then he rang a bell and the two guards came in. They walked up to the desk and waited for orders.
"Go get Temari and Kankuro. Don't worry about getting Gaara he needs his strength to leave the village tonight" said the Kazekage instructing the two guards.

Two teens older than the ones from Konoha emerged in the office door way. On was a female with blonde hair put up in four ponytails. She was wearing a simple short white dress with back shorts and black sandals. She carried a giant fan on here back. The other was a male. He had purple paint on his face and he was wearing a black hooded jumpsuit. He had a puppet on his back. They walked over to their father's desk and stood beside him.
"This is my oldest child Temari and this is my oldest son Kankuro" said the Kazekage pointing to his children.
"Father we have already meet them before so there's no need to intrados us" whispered Temari in her father's ear.
"Oh why didn't you say so? Were did you meet" asked the Kazekage looking up at his daughter.
"We met at the Chuunin exams a few years ago" said Temari looking at here brother to make sure she was correct. He nodded and smiled.
"Ok, since you all already know each other this is great. You will leave as soon as it is dark tonight." He paused to make sure every one was paying attention.
Then he continued "Do not walk on the main road and do not take any trails in the woods. It will take you more time to get back then it did to get here. Go slowly and carefully. Do you understand" asked the Kazekage looking at the teens in front and beside him.
They all nodded. Then they were excused.
