Chapter 6: Comrades


(The Inuzuka's House)

"Hinata? Tenten? Are you guys still here?" Hana asked as she entered.

"Yes, we're in the living room still. Kibas' condition hasn't changed at all." The brunette sighed looking back at her friend.

"I brought Lady Tsunade with me to see if there's something we can't do to help until we figure out what really is affecting him."

"Let me see him." Tsunade quickly moved to Kibas side and checked his pulse and some vitals. Her hands began to glow with chakra. 'This is strange. His nervous system seems to be slowing down and his organs aren't functioning properly.' She looked over to the older Inuzuka. "Hana, tell me is this what happens to those who lose the person they've imprinted on?" She kept her look on the ninja in front of her.

"I'm not sure. I've never experienced it myself nor seen it firsthand." The older Inuzuka frowned.

'His condition is much more serious than I thought.' Tsunade continued checking anything and everything of the Inuzuka's to see if she could find something abnormal or out of the ordinary.

"How bad is it?" Hana was on the other side of her brother and watching. Hinata left to prepare tea to help relax everyone.

"How long has he been like this Hana?"

"I'm not sure, They were the ones who found Kiba and they hsd brought him here." The older Inuzuka stroked her brothers' hair.

"Hinata, do you know how long Kiba's been in this state?" Tsunade looked over to the blue haired kunoichi.

"We arrived a couple seconds after he collapsed. He seemed very worn out " She frowned.

"What should we do Lady Tsunade?" Hana stared at her brother worried.

"I can't do much but ease his mind and heal some of his injuries from the battle earlier." Tsunade moved her hands over the Inuzuka and began working on what she could. Her hands once again began glowing. The cuts and scrapes slowly began to close up.

Hana and Hinata relaxed a little seeing Kiba relax more. Tsunade quickly finished up and then ordered the two kunoichi to take Kiba up to his room for rest.

"He'll be out for a while. Now we need to figure out how to rescue Shikamaru and what those ninja are after. Anyway I'm heading out. You guys get some rest and I'll see you both in the morning with everyone else." The two nodded, with that Tenten, Hinata and Tsunade left.

Hana headed to her room; on her way there she stopped at Kiba's room. "Kiba, everything is going to be okay. Don't you worry goodnight Kiba." And she went into her room and closed her door.

(The next day, Hokage's Office, about 6:00 a.m.)

"Lady Tsunade, everyone is assembled on the roof. Shall we get going?" Shizune put down Tonton. The Hokage nodded and the two began their way up.

"It looks like we're all here." Ino looked around

"Yeah all but Kiba, I wonder where he is?" Lee looked at the village.

"Kiba is actually at home resting under Lady Tsunade's orders." Hana stated before kneeling down. The others saw Lady Tsunade and Shizune and knelt down.

"Morning everyone. You all know why you're here, so I'll just get straight to it. We need to figure out where those ninja are hiding as well as who they are and what they want with Shikamaru." She sat down.

"What do you think we should do?" Sakura looked up hoping Lady Tsunade would have something.

"Hinata how far can you see with you're Byakugan?" Tsunade looked at the blue haired kunoichi.

"I can see about ten kilometers out."

"Okay, than right now I want Lee and Sakura to go with you to the main gate and head into the woods to search for anything out of the ordinary." The three nodded and headed for the main gate.

"What should we do Granny Tsunade?"

"Shouldn't we come up with a plan or something?" Ino looked at Naruto.

"We can't just sit on our butts and do nothing! What if they kill Shikamaru or they do something horrible!" Naruto was on his feet and his hands were clinched into fists.

"Naruto, calm down." The Hokage closed her eyes and sighed. "We need to figure everything out first." About twenty minutes passed by before Hinata, Lee and Sakura returned.

"I'm sorry my lady but Hinata was unable to see anything that would have been of help."

"It's ok, you all should relax. I'll see what I can find out, but for now just be ready. If I find anything you guys will be notified and will move out immediately." Everyone nodded and took off.

"Shizune."

"Yes my lady?" Shizune stood patiently awaiting orders.

"Go look and see if we have any shinobi that might be able to track down Shikamaru." Shizune nodded and hurried off.

'I hope we're not too late ' The Hokage stared out over the village.

(Somewhere in the fortress)

"Kenzo I'm bored!" Yin shouted angrily, arms crossed glaring at the man lying against a pillar.

"Not my problem. Don't really care." His eyes still closed.

"You're so mean and boring. Why don't you do anything fun!" She flipped her green hair and turned around and began walking away. "Maybe Hideki or Mayumi will have fun."

"That girl is ridiculous." He sighed and went back to his nap.

"Mayumi! Hideki! Where are you guys?" The green haired nin yelled throughout the hallways. "Is this bore Yin to death day or something sheesh." She was getting more frustrated until she managed to find the Nara chained to the wall in his cell.

"Hey, shadow boy. You still alive?" She kicked a stone towards Shikamaru.

He sat there and ignored her. Not really in the social mood being chained up and all like some animal.

"What makes you so special anyway that our lord would send us after you anyway." She pulled up a chair and sat there talking like he would respond. "I mean you don't look like someone that would be worth his time or anything, plus you seem so blah." Silence. "Don't tell me you're boring too! Geez what do I have to do to have fun!"

"Maybe you could shut up and go away. That sounds fun." The shadow user said still not looking at her.

"Excuse me? Who the hell do you think you are to talk to me that way! That's really mean and besides you're not in any position to say stuff like that." The green haired nin became irritated then an idea popped into her head.

"You're not that bad looking actually. Maybe I might have my fun after all." She smirked. Shikamarus' stomach dropped. "Since you're tied up you can't really fight back and it has been sometime since I've done anything for myself. Let's see if we both can't have some fun."

"Don't you dare touch me."

"Oh please, I'll make everything feel good." With that she entered the cell and walked towards the shadow user.

"Get away from me you bitch." Shikamaru tried to get her away but failed at doing so.

"Just calm down and leave everything to me." She spoke into his ear and reached down his pants. After a while nothing happened.

"You must be gay, I mean usually I have guys turned on. But with you nothing has happened, such a shame. But I know of ways to get what I want, and I always get what I want." She started to remove his clothes. "It's sad that I'm lowering myself to rape a gay guy but beggars can't be choosers right?" She chuckled and Shikamaru stood there unable to fight back.

"Let's really get this started."

His eyes went wide with fear.

(Back in the village)

"I'm not waiting around while a team is being handpicked! Who knows how long it'll take if we wait around!" The blonde yelled, irritated with the situation.

"Ino you need to calm down-."

"Sakura no! Shikamaru needs us, you don't understand we need to save him for Kiba, us, and himself!" Sakura looked down. She knew that arguing would accomplish nothing and the fact that she went through her own ordeal with Sasuke and Naruto.

"Chouji, are you with me?" Chouji stood quietly and then nodded.

"We're a team and a family. We've always had each other's back and we're not going to stop now." Ino smiled and with that they both took off to their houses.

"What should we do? We can't let them go alone." Tenten asked feeling slightly stressed.

"It's simple. We'll go with them after all, we're comrades right?" Naruto stated while appearing from behind a tree.

"I don't know Naruto. Let's get everyone together first, but we'll have to hurry before they take off." Sakura said while quickly hopping up to the roof. "Get everyone at the main gate and be there no less than five minutes!"

Tenten and Naruto nodded before taking off as well.

'Ino please be smart about this...' Sakura looked at the sky. 'So much going on...hang in there Kiba. You too Shikamaru.' She picked up the pace and headed for Naruto's place.
