About, day later, Satori and Tenten was walking down the halls of the Hokage Building. They were on their way to meet up with Sakura and for lunch. They were only feet away from the door when Satori heard Shizune's voice that was filled with urgency. He held his hand out to stop Tenten from walking any further. He slowly moved his head forward to listen in. He heard Shizune talking but couldn't make out all of it. However he did hear that the team never made it to the Feudal Lord's manor. If memory served the manor was only half a day's walk. He turned to his sister.
"Who was on the roster for the Feudal Lord escort mission?" Satori whispered.
"Uh….Two members from Team six and all of Team three." She replied.
Satori's eyes widened, Azumi was on Team three. He sprinted off.
"Nii-chan!" Tenten called.
Satori didn't listen to her; his mind was set on finding out what happened to his friends. He ran out of the building and ran straight for the gates. The two traffic reporters looked up and saw Satori in full sprint and he ran out of the village.
The five chuunins stayed hidden from the Rock ninjas that attacked them over half a day ago. Random battles occurred and the Rock ninjas had the ability to make themselves invisible. The Leaf chuunins weren't going to last much longer.
"Why are they doing this? We aren't at war with them anymore." Masaki said.
"Look who's with them." Shizuka said. "That traitor, Ronin."
"I'm going to rip him apart once I get my claws on him." Yaiba said.
"You'll never get the chance, leaf-brats." A voice said behind them.
They all turned around to see two Rock ninjas had appeared. The two ninjas were using their invisibility technique and snuck up on the five leaf chuunins. The two Rock ninjas moved in for the kill.
"You're all dead." One of them said.
"Who is?" A voice said between the two ninjas.
The two ninjas looked at one another to find somebody had landed on their shoulders. It was Satori. Satori looked up at his comrades and smirked. He then grabbed the two Rock ninjas by their heads, lifted himself up and smashed their heads together. The two ninjas fell over and Satori landed on his feet and walked over to his friends.
"Are you guys alright?" Satori asked.
"We're exhausted." Masaki said.
"What's the situation? I see that there are Rock ninjas out."
"We were on our way and we got ambushed by these guys. Ronin is leading them."
Satori stood up and looked around. "I see."
