[Yamato]
"Naruto-kun, Yamato-taichou, someone's coming to intercept our position and they're fast." warns Hinata, with her Byakugan in full effect.
"Alright. Be prepared for a fight, everyone." orders Yamato. His companions nod in agreement.
It didn't take long for the hooded figure to materialize in front of him. He held a woman with western features on his back. Yamato recognized the face. Wonderful.
The woman's face breaks out into a smile as she hops off of the hooded figure's back.
("WOOD BOY!") she chimes as she waves enthusiastically in his direction.
"Marie-chan.." Yamato greets with less enthusiasm. ("Your boyfriend other person?") he asks. The hooded figure still hadn't revealed their face.
Marie nods solemnly.
The hooded man, Kabuto, takes off his hood to reveal that half of his face had been transformed into...well, Yamato wasn't entirely sure what it was.
Half of Kabuto's face had turned stark white and was a sort of scaly texture.
"Yamato-taichou. Naruto-kun. Hyūga-sama. It is good to see all of you." says Kabuto, bowing politely.
Naruto and Hinata shared in his confusion over Kabuto's appearance.
Hinata activates her Byakugan and gasps in shock.
"What do you see, Hinata-chan?" asks Naruto.
"It's...his body is being taken over by Orochimaru. And that girl...she has no chakra!"
Yamato and Naruto look at Hinata in confusion.
Kabuto laughs. "That was my reaction as well. My Marie is special in many ways."
"What do you want, Kabuto? Is it true that Orochimaru is dead?" growls Naruto.
"Orochimaru-sama has been defeated by Sasuke-kun in battle. I have absorbed what is left of him into my body. But do not fear. I do not intend to harm you."
Naruto, Hinata, and Yamato visibly wince.
"Then...what the hell do you want then?" demands Naruto.
"I have acquired some information about the Akatsuki that you may find useful. In addition I have a request."
"And that is...?" asks Yamato.
"I need you to take Marie to Konoha. She knows many things about the Akatsuki that even I don't know. Keep her safe. I intend to return for her when I maintain control of my form."

[Marie]
After Kabuto finishes talking to Wood boy, Naruto, and...Hinata (omg her eyes! She's so cute! I love her hair!!!!) Kabuto turns to me.
"You're going with them."
...The fuck?
I stare at him. "I am?"
"Yes. I don't trust the man I'm about to work for. I don't want him anywhere near you nor do I want him to know what you know."
"Might I remind you that Danzō is still fucking alive? I'm not letting him anywhere near that information."
Kabuto smirks. "Good girl." He kisses my forehead gently.
And then he was gone.

Author's notes: Just reminding you guys that I have made a separate companion fic for filler drabbles and such based on the 100 themes meme thing. It's a lot of fun, and I've enjoyed writing them, so check it out if you want to read a ton of fluffy nonsense.
This is short because I should be studying for finals and I'm not but I wanted to continue the story a bit.
Review and enjoy!
