"So what is the plan?" Sai asked

"Well we need to look around the area, before we can get info on the kage of this land. So we know are way around. Thin we came back here, and talk about what we found." Shikamaru said

"Ok... Will we be going in teams?" Neji asked

"No not to day. Tomorrow we will be, to get info on the kage in groups of 2." Shikamaru explained

"Ok so we need to find possible living areas, important areas, and simply areas?" Sakura asked finally colm down after what happened earlier in the morning.

"Yes now we should start. Everyone take a different direction. I'll take west." Shikamaru said

"Hai!" They responded

Earlier that morning

Sakura shivered do to the cold, so she cuddled up to the warmth that was next to her. The warmth wrapped around her waist.

'So much better' Sakura thought to herself with a sigh.

Sakura could hear people whispering. The warmth started to move so, Sakura opened her eyes.

She immediately closed thim again, and moved away from the warmth. Her face turned red, it would put Gaara's hair to shame.

'I was cuddling with Shika-kun!?'

'Yeah... I could have told you that..' Inner mumbled

'Shut up!' Sakura thought back to Inner.

Sakura look over to see Shikamaru, and see his cheeks have a dusting of pink on them.

The both look over were the whispering was comeing from, and see Sai, and Neji smirking at them.

Back to the present

Sakura sighed as she walks around.

'That was awkward' Sakura thought sighing again.

'Yeah it was just a little..'

'Hey Inner I have a question..'

'Oo, ok what do you need?' Inner asked

'What are you really?'

'Hmm I guess I'm your demon part' Inner responded

'Why do you say that?'

'Well as you know I'm more aggressive, and I like to kill, and thangs like that. That might explain why I have my own soul, and all. If I'm not the demon part of you then I might be the instincts of your demon blood.' Inner explained

'Whith that I think you are my demon part it makes more sins.'

As Sakura was talking with her Inner she was scouting the area. Sakura sees a building that old, and run down, With guards around it.

'That looks promising.'

'Go there again with the others... don't go alone..'

'Ummm why is that Inner?'

'Trust me.. you'll find out soon enough..'

'Umm ok...' Sakura said walking by the building.

'Anyway... I have another question...'

'Ok?'

'Who is my dad?' Sakura asked

Inner was quiet for a moment.

'Why do you want to know?'

'I know nothing about my dad, and I figured you do... So do you?'

'...' Inner was quiet again before responding.

'You'll find out soon enough... you don't need to know yet...' Inner said before going into the depths of Sakurm's mind.

'Umm ok..' Sakura responded

'Why do I get the feeling that this mission, will be more then it supposed to be...' Sakura thought to herself
