Message for Whom?
Still unable to find the ring, Shikamaru has lost a sizable amount of hope that he will.
Downtrodden, his shoulders more stoop than the usual, he doesn't sense the ominous aura of the shinobi standing before him. It isn't until his shoulder bumps the other's shoulder that he looks up. He looks up straight into Gaara's displeased and ultra cold gaze.
"Gaa—ra, wh—at are you doing here?" Shikamaru stammers, his shoulders straightening abruptly.

A half hour or so upon her arrival on her own camp, Temari receives a note.
The note says:
Temari, just tell Kankuro his presence is required in there to get things done. It's definitely far more important for no one to intervene. Tell him to use kunai and shuriken.
Signed
Gaara
.
Temari frowns. Somehow, she gets the feeling that the message is meant for her more than it is for Kankuro.

A/N: Yep, that message above is coded and yep, it replaced something. If you are one of the very few trying to answer the one that I removed, here it is again:
Untitled
Shikamaru asks a stupid question, mark of his disturbed thought processes.
He struggles hard. It's not apparent, however, as it's solved, the task at hand.
.
...I have to replace it because the hidden message is actually a sort of A/N. Hence, the Untitled title. You can still solve it though and discover what it meant.. And of course, Untitled and Message For Whom? have the same pattern...
Clue: Just use kunai and shuriken to defeat the messages.
And to Player Zero, thanks :)
