Agh, im typing this at like…midnight I've been walking all day my feet are utterly killing me!!

Kyoshi woke up, after what seemed like an eternal rest it was surprisingly a day full of sleep. Kyoshi was bandaged, he had gray sweat-pants and medical tape around his chest and arms, his hands were heavily bandaged, the fight was all a big blur to Kyoshi. His face got scratched up, he could feel it, and he still felt insanely sore, his muscles were all tense, a sharp pain was felt when he moved. Kyoshi gave up trying to get out of the bed, and just laid there waiting for what would happen next. He was in a serene room, there was a window near to him and some jutsu scrolls hanging on the wooden walls. The floor had a rug on it, and there was a mini-stove and some wrappers on the ground. He then heard foot-steps he found Saila walking up to the room Kyoshi was in she wanted to see if he was awake.

"Oh, you're awake?" Saila stated, surprised

"Of course I'm awake, how long have I been out?" Kyoshi asked his voice low like most people have when they just wake up.

"Well, a day and a half, its night time now I decided to check on you before I went to bed." Saila said

Kyoshi was shocked, he slept for one day? He never slept that long, it was always around five hours of rest before he had to go back up and train again. Saila noticed Kyoshi's shocked expression and they both remained quiet for awhile, Kyoshi was the first to break the silence.

"Where's Kidiri." Kyoshi asked, he felt bad when he tried killing him, not even for his own good. He had hoped he forgave him for his wrong doings.

"Oh he left once we brought you here; he said he wanted to stop whoever had done this to you." Saila said slowly

Kyoshi's eyes widened "Stop whoever had done this to me, he must mean by my evil ways from the past months, which means he's gunning for the Akatsuki. And it also means he's after Itachi." A cringed was sent into Kyoshi's body when he said the word; Itachi, it made him sick just thinking about that man.

Kyoshi darted his attention to Saila; "Why didn't you stop him?" he asked

"He left when I was asleep, he left me a note…he's been gone ever since." Saila said hanging her head low, she wish she could do something.

"We got to do something! We have to do something he's gonna die if we don't stop him!" Kyoshi exclaimed as he tried moving but that action was halted by Saila's hand lightly pressing on Kyoshi's chest.

"No, you need to rest; you're no good to us if you're injured. I'll find Kidiri and I'll make sure he comes back alive." Saila promised as she got up

"You don't understand, there coming for me they want me. Pein; the leader of this organization had warned me of betraying the akatsuki, if I did they would all come hunt me down till I was presumed dead." Kyoshi said, his voice raising from the tension in his body.

"Yes, but for all they know, your dead…they think Itachi killed you, your like a ghost now if you just hang low and word never gets out of your life, we'll all be safe." Saila said grinning

"So just stay there." Saila ordered as she went to her room, got into her regular lightning village jounin vest, and black ninja kimono, and black pants with blue ninja sandals. She didn't put her headband on, she didn't want her village to be known, since she might get into a bad mess up and get deep rivalries.

She shut Kyoshi's door after saying good bye to him, she secured the house then walked out of the village. She had no idea where to start, she could've gotten locations from Kyoshi, but the akatsuki would have known who it was. She started to just walk, she caught a few carriage rides and eventually got to the Earth village. Saila was confused, after three days of traveling she had no leads. She started to ask around, someone should know something about the akatsuki.

Saila then came across a black cloaked figure on top of the Earth village's wall, she saw that the figure noticed her noticing him and dashed to the forest. Saila dashed towards the figure, she could vaguely see him, and she started going faster. Adrenaline was making her run faster, she had no idea who this was, but the fact that he was running from her just glancing at something…he had to be up to something. Saila took out an explosive kunai and drifted to the edge, the left side from where the figure was running, she used up a lot of her energy getting this close. She threw an explosive kunai at a tree, once it exploded it hit the guy full force, slamming him into the ground. Whoever this was he wasn't too observant. Saila jumped down and pounced the man, putting a kunai to the figures neck.

Saila removed the hood, she was shocked in seeing who it was.

"Jourin!?" Saila exclaimed, she dropped her kunai and fell back

Jourin was way different, her hair wasn't all neat and tidy, and it was dirty and sweaty. His kendo jacket was stained, he had a rougher out look, and his right arm was gone, his right leg was badly damaged and he had grown a beard.

"How…how did your survive I heard that Kyoshi killed you!" Saila said standing up, they were almost eye to eye, it seemed Jourin got a bit shorter, if it's possible to shrink.

Jourin chuckled "The student, can never kill the master. I simply played a trick on Kyoshi, making it seemed I was dead. He made me loose my arm, in the fire of course." Jourin said as he started to explain how he got out.

Flash-Back

Jourin was now stuck, his arm and the right side of his body was covered in burning debri left from the changed Kyoshi. He waited for the demented Uchiha disappear, he grinned as he used his reserved strength to flip over to debri, then made some hand-seals and put out the fire. He made the external fire stay, so it seemed the house would crumble. Jourin then ran, but was stopped by his right arm, it had been severely burned who would have thought. Jourin quickly ran to the hospital, being sure Kyoshi's eyes wouldn't catch him. Jourin cloaked his chakra signal weakly in the house so it seemed he was slowly dieing, which would please Kyoshi. Jourin quickly got his right arm medically removed and leg some-what healed.


"Your leg will never function the same again, we tried our best. What mess did you get into now Jourin?" One of the doctors joked, but was also serious at the time.

"I don't need it to function properly, I just need it to help me walk. That's all." Jourin said grinning, ignoring the question the doctor asked and he disappeared.

Jourins possessions were gone, all he had were these white medical robes, they would have to do as his old kendo robes and hakama were better off "dead". Jourin did save his scroll that could easily teleport him to the water-fall village. He used that if he ever needed to get to places within short time. Jourin used his scroll and was teleported to his dojo, he got some old clothes of his. A blue kendo robe and a black hakama, it was minorly ripped.

Jourin put on a black hooded cloak as he followed in Kyoshi's foot-steps, he cloaked himself within to earth to witness the akatsuki's plans. With his new physical state he wasted all his mental energy to sustain his chakra so it couldn't be detected. He spied on Kyoshi for days, witnessing on how his independence had grown. He then followed him to Konoha, secretly, and pretended to be a citizen of Konoha; bad choice. They both started fighting in slow motion, Jourin was insanely impressed on how one of his greatest students, is capable of fighting toe to toe with Itachi it equal skill. Jourin slowly got out of the range of there fire, and traveled from Konoha, he watched it as it crumbled. The glory of the hokage faces were the only thing showing.

End Flash-Back

"Jourin you sly fox. So you have been watching us all this time, well you've been watching Kyoshi, I would have never thought. I couldn't sense you at all!" Saila said, trying to not get off topic

"You said that you went to the akatsuki hide out, can you take me there, a friend of mine and Kyoshi's, Kidiri has gone on a revenge streak, he wants to make the people who made Kyoshi how he is pay, which means he's gunning for Itachi." Saila said, deathly worried

Jourin nodded "I can take you there, if you give me of Kyoshi's location, I would want to see him, I sensed a feeling of guilt rage in him about what he did to me, and I would like to complete his training with him, so he can finish what he had started." The old man said, he knew Saila wouldn't understand, she even knew she wouldn't.

The two then started quickly jumping on tree limbs to reach the akatsuki hide out, trying to find quicker routes, getting lost in-between.

Kidiri looked at the over-view of the land, he was in the grass village, and it seemed he had drifted a bit, he had a feeling of where the hideout was. He could actually sense it, the first time him and Itachi meant he concentrated on Itachi's chakra signal, so now he could track where-ever he was, and then find him and kill him.

Again, this is another short chapter, the rest of these chapters will have a changed story, if you say. What im trying to say is that it won't be focused on one person anymore it will be split by Kidiri Saila, and Kyoshi. I might add some of the rookie 9 (in other words the actual main characters in Naruto) so be on the look out for that. Anywho see ya.
