Thoughts

Demons

Suna, Friends of Leaf

The team, with Tazna and Kakashi in tow, reached Suna in twenty minutes. In Rin's thought, they made great time considering that they had to carry two people. They were stopped at the gate.

"What do you want?", a Sand-nin asked. Lao let Tazna down.

"I am here to assist with the rebuilding of Suna", Tazna said,"These three are the ninja I hired to escort me."

"And him?", the second guard asked, motioning toward Kakashi.

"Our sensei", Rin said. The Sand-nin looked and nodded. They were let through and the four of them made their way to the Kazekage's tower. They reached there and were met by two more ninja. One had a black hoody with markings on his face and had a furry thing wrapped in bandages strapped on his back. The other one had bandages wrapped on the top of his head and then a white veil went down over his left eye.

"Who are you?", the one in the hoody asked. Rin was about to answer when Kakashi tilted his head.

"Kankorou", Kakashi gasped,"Take us to Gaara." Kankorou looked surprised.

"Kakashi-san?", he yelled,"What happened?"

"We were attacked by some guys impersonating the Demon Brothers of the Mist", Rin said. Kankorou nodded and opened the door.

"Baki-sensei, go get the medical team", Kankorou said as he followed the leaf-nin. Baki grunted, but went off to get the medics. Kakashi was taken up the stairs and Kankorou led them to a big door with a raccoon imprinted on it. He knocked and the talking inside stopped.

"Who is it?", Gaara asked, uncaringly.

"Kanokorou", he replied,"The leaf-nin have brought Tazna to help rebuild. Kakashi-san is injured." Gaara opened the door and nodded at the group. They went in and placed Kakashi on a couch. Inside was a desk that Gaara sat at and on the other side, a woman sat on a chair.

"What happened?", the woman asked, surprised by the large blood stain on the bandage around Kakashi.

"Two men impersonating the Demon Brothers of the Mist attacked us", Rin said. She then explained the entire battle they had. Raj and Lao sat down on some chairs.

"Gaara-san?", Raj asked.

"Hn", was the reply.

"You were friends with my father, right?", Raj asked. Kankorou turned to him surprised, but Gaara kept an uncaring composure.

"Who is your father?", he asked.

"I am Uzumaki Raj, son of Uzumaki Naruto", he said. Gaara looked surprised at that.

"Hmm...So he married a Hyuuga?", Gaara asked, noticing Raj's white, pupiless eyes. Raj nodded. The woman was looking at Kakashi's wound carefully.

"We should be able to help him, but he'll be out of it for at least a couple of weeks", she said.

"A couple weeks?", Rin yelled,"But shouldnt healing jutsus take care of that? I tried mine, but I was only powerful enough to slow the bleeding." The woman nodded.

"Do you need to perform surgery, Ina?", Gaara asked.

"Perhaps", she replied,"And it'll take a couple of weeks because these Demon Brother imposters hit some major organs." Rin lowered her head.

"Is there a chance he'll die?", she asked. Raj and Lao gasped.

"To tell you the truth, I am surprised he lived this long", Ina said. Suddenly, Baki led about five medic-nin in and a small boy with an older sister ran in as well.

"Gaara-sama", one of the medics began,"Should we start here or take him to the hospital?"

"The hospital will be better for him", Gaara said. The medics nodded and lifted Kakashi up, taking him out of the room. "Konkorou. Show Tazna to the reconstruction site with Baki." Kankorou and Baki nodded and led Tazna out the room as well.

"Father?", the boy asked.

"Yes, Kitou?", Gaara asked, looking at the two children.

"What should we do with them?", he asked, gesturing at the three genin.

"It must have been a long day for them", Gaara said,"But before I say, what are your names?"

"Im Uzumaki Raj, as I said before", Raj said.

"I am Hatake Rin", Rin said,"Kakashi is my father."

"I am Rock Lao", Lao said,"And dont worry about that youth stuff my father always went on about. I dont do that." Gaara nodded.

"Raj and Lao will stay in Kitou's room with him", Gaara said,"Rin, you can stay with Len." He gestured at the girl. They nodded and walked off. Raj, Lao, and Rin were pretty down the entire time.

"So, what happened?", Kitou asked.

"Do you know who the Demon Brothers of the Mist were?", Rin asked. Kitou nodded. "Two people used the Henge Jutsu to impersonate them and attacked us."

"Pretty stupid", Len said,"Impersonating the same two people who got killed by the Jounin they fought."

"Not really", Rin said,"That was what threw us off. We didnt expect that." Len nodded.

"He was your father?", Len asked. Rin nodded, sadly. "Dont worry. I heard stories of Kakashi-san. There is no way that wound would kill him." Rin grinned, wearily at that.

"Thanks", she said as they made it to the rooms. They seperated and went inside the seperate rooms to rest. Raj and Lao immediatly passed out on the floor, but Rin stayed up talking to Len in the other room.

"How strong are you as Kakashi's daughter?", Len asked with a grin.

"Strong enough", she replied with the same grin,"How bout you?" Rin was suddenly grabbed and pinned to the wall with sand.

"Strong", she said. Rin chuckled. "Whats so funny?", Len asked, tensing up.

"Pathetic attempt", Rin said as she turned into a log. Len took out a kunai as the sand surrounded her. As Rin leapt down to attack, the sand rose, but instead of punching or stabbing, she had a hand seal ready. "Tomorrow", was all Rin said before lowering the hand seal.

"Fine, tomorrow", Len agreed as they both fell asleep.
