Chapter Nine
"The two month waiting period is over. Now you must strike. But be careful: those cowards hired some ninja to protect their village. Konoha ninja. You know them as Team 13. They have a new kunoichi added to the roster as well; a water user with a summoning. Watch her." "Understood sir," Itachi and Hermione said, kneeling before him. "Good. Now go," the leader commanded. With that, Itachi Uchiha and Hermione Kimochi exited the Akatsuki base and embarked on the long journey to the Wave country. But not just as partners, as lovers.
(Katie: That means love, everyone. Me: They know!! Our readers aren't stupid!!) After a few silent jumps through the trees, Hermione spoke up. "So, you think this'll be easy, or will we have a problem?" Itachi smirked. "No, there won't be any problems with these novices. We shall defeat them without effort." 'But what about the water user? She sounds familiar,' Hermione thought. "Something wrong, Hermione?" Itachi had seen her troubled look. "No, it's nothing. Nothing you should worry about, anyway." "You sure?" "Yeah, I'm sure. Let's keep going." When Itachi seemed content, Hermione sighed of releif. He noticed this, so Itachi scooted over and gave her a kiss on the cheek, then continued ahead. 'I hope it's nothing she can't handle,' he thought.
"Neji, Guy-sensei's plan is not working." Neji sighed at his long time rival. "That's because he knows nothing about the wills of a woman's heart. Take it from me; I got TenTen. Kenisha shouldn't be any different. Now listen--" "What are you two talking about back there?!" "Nothing, TenTen!! Just mission tactics, that's all," Neji said quickly. "Okay, just try to keep up, you're slowing down," she called, then went back to talking to Kenisha. "You sure it didn't work?" "Yeah. I told you I wasn't a big fan of dresses, didn't I? All guys do is stare at my ass!!" TenTen frowned. "I guess that's true; Neji did the same thing: I had to pin him to a tree with a shuriken. He never tried it again...that I know of."
Kenisha nodded. "You can't trust them when hormones get in the way; it blinds their inner self. That's why I haven't tried getting a guy until now. It's so hard being foreign." TenTen put a hand on her shoulder and patted it gently. "I know, believe me. Missions in other countries can lead to so many things." Behind them, Neji and Lee were staring at them quiziccally. "What do you suppose they are talking about up there?" "I don't know, but something tells me fate is not on our side this time!!"
"Target is in range, sir. Attack at once?" Two men were standing in the shadows, watching the three parties advance to the Land of Waves. (Katie: Reminder: Akatsuki, Sand Team +1 and Team 13 + 1 Me: They know!!) "No, wait a little, young one. You will want to see how this little battle royale turns out," said a deep voice. "Yes sir," said the young one. "What do you think will happen if we wait and they kill eachother?" The older man looked out into the distance, where mist shrouded everything in sight. "No, no, young one. They won't kill eachother; not after such a disastirous (Me?) time apart. Not after losing almost everything."
Emily: Damn you cliffhangers to hell!!
Katie: Shut up; you're scaring our readers.
Emily: No I'm not!! And I'll scream all I want!!
TenTen: SHUT UP BEFORE MY KUNAI TELL YOU TO!!!!
Emily: Yes ma'am...(runs in fear)
Kenisha, Lee, Temari, Shikamaru, and Neji: Damnnnnnn...
Everyone: Review Please!!!!
