Kakashi was pacing back and forth in the living room in irritation. Where was she? Where was Naru? She had taken off to do something earlier while he had been asleep and hadn't come back yet. It was getting late, usually she was back home with in two or three hours. It had already been four. He growled, something must be wrong. There was no other reason why she would still be gone. There was a knock at the door, and his head snapped to the side and he rushed over to the door and opened it to find Itachi and Minato standing there. Glaring at an small envelope that Itachi was holding.

Kakashi's worried expression catching their attention as he sighed and turned his back to them. "Hey, Kakashi. Is Naru around?" Minato asked as he took the envelope from Itachi. Kakashi ran his fingers through his hair and shook his head no.

"Haven't seen her since this morning."

"Oh, how long has she been gone?" Itachi asked curiously. Kakashi gave him bleak look and held up four fingers then went back to the middle of his living room and resumed his pacing.

"I'm sure that she's fine." Minato said optimistically as he looked down at the envelope again. It had Kakashi's name on it, written out in blood red ink that resembled Danzou's hand writing. What would Danzou want with Kakashi?

"I thing your wrong. Something doesn't feel right." Kakashi said as he paced even faster, his anxious behavior was starting to worry the two men. Itachi reached out and snatched the envelope from Minato's hand and quickly opened it, the kid wouldn't mind since they were practically family now. He pulled out the letter inside, looked it over and snarled something viscous that made both Minato and Kakashi look at him.

"Itachi what is that?" Kakashi asked as Minato too the paper and paled for a second after reading what it said. Oh fuck.

Kakashi,

I have your wife. Come to the root head quarters, and don't bother rushing. I've given your wife to my men, and your all ready too late.

Minato looked at Itachi who nodded at him, he knew what he was thinking and he was definitely in. Naru was his daughter too, and he wasn't the kind of man who would leave hi own flesh and blood to suffer such a fate. "Kakashi, we'll go look for her. You stay here just in case she comes back, and we'll go see if we can find her." Minato said as he quickly walked out the front door, Itachi gave Kakashi a peculiar look before he followed Minato out.

Their littl girl needd her daddys and by god they would save her or die trying!


Naru slowly came back to consciousness an hour or so later in a small cell, laying on the cold floor, almost naked apparently from the feel of things. She shivered against the cold and lifted her head to look around after she quietly checked herself for any wounds that might hinder her when she decided to break out of the cell. She found none but couldn't help noticing that her body felt hotter than normal. They had used some sort of drug o her, but she wa'nt worried since it wouldn't keep her from slitting the throats of anyone who dared to touch her.

She frowned and looked down at herself. Someone had undressed and redressed her. She wasn't wearing her pants an her sky blue sweater from earlier, she was wearing an almost sheer white cotton shirt that hung down to her hips and that was it. There were thick leather bands around her wrists and ankles, chakra suppressors. Bastards. Did they really think that these stupid things would stop her?

Kit....

Kyubbi, is everything okay?

Barely, but yes. Forgive me for being silent this past week, but I needed to rest and regain my strength.

That's fine. I knew that you would need the time, it's why I didn't bother you for answers to my questions.

Have you figured out the answers?

Yes, and thank you for what you have done. A girl couldn't ask for a better gift. She felt the demon smile at her in her head. How do you plan to get out of this mess?

Very carefully. I have a plan.

Oh?

Yeah, I'm going to kill everyone I can get my hands on..... Naru thought viciously as her violet eyes flashed scarlet with little comma's around the pupils. Kyubbi laughed, his kit had always had trouble playing well with others.


Minato and Itachi pushed their way through the front doors of the Root head quarters an killed the five men who had tried to stop them. If these losers thought that they were going to keep the two furious fathers from their kid, they were dead wrong. "I hope she's okay." Minato panted as they ran down the spiral stair case that would lead them to Danzou.

Itachi nodded his head silently, he hoped that she was alright too, yet could'nt figure out how the man had managed to capture Naru unless he had set a trap of some kind or caught her unawares and used something to keep her from fighting back.


Naru was on her feet in the middle of the cell when the door was opened and a group of men who were only wearing their masks and pants walked in. Her eyes scanned the group as she sized them up. There were nine of them in all , each of them gave off a certain air of arrogance, and confidence meaning that they were very sure of their skills. They were all probably jounin level. Under ordinary circumstances she would be completely helpless, and afraid, but since she had partually merged with Kyubbi her power had increasedover a thousand fold and she was able to defend herself even whith out using her sage jutsu or her chakra.

These men would'nt be enough to keep her here. She would kill them and destroy Root once and or all.
