Kakashi

Chapter 10

I followed Sakura's directions, and followed Goemon. This was weird. I was the one usually directing the missions, but now my old students where taking over.

We stopped at this waterfall and pond. I could smell her scent close. I loved the way she always smelled... like apples and jasmine. Sasuke stepped foreward to the water's edge, and he ushered Sakura infont of him. "It's here. I remember this..." he said.

"I can't smell her anymore..." I said, and walked tpo where the two where. Goemon was staying behind us.

Sakua looked at me. "What do you mean you can't smell her anymore?" she screamed. Sasuke grabbed her before she could do anyhting.

"Her scent has dissapeared." I said, and ran a hand through my hair.

"Ummm, Kakashi?" Goemon said franticly.

"What?" I snapped.

"I think ou should jump to the left about twenty feet!" he yelled.

I looked up and saw a giant redwood falling down. I did as Goemon said to do, and jumped to the left about 20 feet. Sasuke grabbed Sakura and they jumped to the right, watching the tree fall by their side.

Sakura ripped free of Sasuke's arms, and jumped ontp of the tree as it layed on it's side. She squinted her eyes, and looked ahead. I felt an evil and strong chakra coming towards us.

Just then, a rummble was heard and felt through out the whole forest.

"Sakura move!" Goemon yelled, and he jumped up and swept her away from the tree.

Just then, a giant snake was cutting throigh the woods like a hot knife through butter. The snake stopped in the middle of us, towering above head about 100 feet above. We could not see who was perched above it, but I had a good feeling it was that bastard that kidnapped my wife.

Then, the snake layed his head down, flattening some trees in it's way, and we could see two silhoueted figures ontop of it's head because itwas dark at this time.

The tallest figure started to chuckle a very familier chuckle. One that Sasuke and I have despised for many many years.

"Well well well," it said. "It looks like they came for you my pet."

"Oh?" said the feathery female voice next to him. "And who might they be?"

The moon came out from behind the clouds and light up the surroundings, inculding the figures. I looked upon the face of the man. None other than Orochimaru... but I looked to the woman that was so lovingley hanging on him...

"Ayasae..." I whispered. The scent of Jasmine and apples reached my nose, and her eyes fell over me.

"I'm so sorry to worry you, Kakashi, but you're wife is fine. But unfortunatley, she does not remember anything about you all. All she knows is that I am her master, and she must obey me or she will die." the monster hissed.

I looked upon this evil man with such hatred. He has taken my wife's memory, and now she will kill us for Orochimaru. That monster.

"You better not go soft on her now, Kakashi. She has her mind set on killing you all, and giving no mercy. I know Sakura will have no problem in hitting her own teacher, with all of the pressure through training... but will she hit her sister?" he laughed wickedly.

"You're sick!" Sasuke hissed.

"So everyone tells me." Orochimaru seemed bored with that subject.

I looked at the woman I called my wife, and wondered if she was capable of doing such evil. She may have lost her memory, and may think she's just another of Orochimaru's subjects, but her heart is still Ayasae...
