As the villagers crowded the four Kohaki stood alone, silent and watching, forever watching thie every move.
"So tell us about her." Kakashi said as he sat down. Sakura was next to him, then Sasuke on her side, and Naruto was on Kakashi's other side. The village priest sat across from them and set some teacups on a small table.
"So you have heard about her being a girl? No matter. You will still get rid of her, correct?" the priest asked. Kakashi affirmed this with a nod. "I'm afraid we don't know much, except for what we have seen and heard. She won't come into this village unless absolute emergency. Then she only goes to the medical house, which isn't too often."
"She's not in this village?" Sakura asked. The elderly man shook his head. "No, she resides in a small hut just ouside the front gates. However, she has servants come in here often to pick up her needed supplies through a secret door in the gate on the eastern side."
"Servants?" asked Kakashi. "Yes. She takes n servants, one at a time, usually for just one month but there has been times when she's kept them for longer. And they are always small children."
"Bu--! You're saying she kidnaps kids and turns them into slaves!? How cruel! That's not right!" Sakura exclaimed. The priest nodded. "She is just horrible and must be dealt with severly."
"She doesn't kidnap anyone! She's never have and never will. And she doesn't have servants, she has--"
"Shut your mouth, boy!" Sasuke turned to see Kohaki, his fist were clenched and his eyes were narrowed. 'It's that kid again, was he one of her servants?'
"You're lying! And you know it! She's not horrible! She's never kidnapped a person in her life! You know that as well as I!" Kohaki accused. "See what she's done?" the priest said to Kakashi, "After she has no more use for them she brainwashes the pour souls."
"I am not brainwashed! You're just trying to get rid of her because--" the priest, amazingly fast for his old age, grabbed Kohaki and gagged him with his sleeve. "Boy, you should watch your tongue." he warned into Kohaki's ear.
"Put him down." Sasuke said calmly. "Let the boy speak." said Kakashi. With fear in his eyes, the priest released Kohaki, who quickly ran to Sakura. "Sakura-san you have to believe me! Everyone thinks she's evil just because she's an assassin!" Sakura nodded and smiled. "Don't worry, Kohaki-chan. We promised, and I never go back on my promises." Kohaki smiled up at her in joy.
"Is this true?" asked Kakashi. "So what if it is!? We're paying you good money to execute her." Sakura instantly stood up in rage. "Execute! Why do you want to execute someone who's taking care of your orphans!?" she demanded.
"We never agreed to execute anyone. We were told to get rid of a low-class assassin, that's all." Kakashi said sternly. "She's not low-class anything, she's a wonderful person." Kohaki whispered sincerly.
"Anyone who kills another is evil!" shouted the priest. "So you pay us to kill her?" Sasuke asked, turning the tables on the old guy. Naruto growled and stood up next to Sakura. "I can't stand this guy!" he yelled. "He's a stupid hypocrite!"
