They had decided to set up camp after the pinkette's knees gave in and she nearly collapsed. It was about two in the morning and they hadn't stopped nor slowed down once. The four year old had done exceedingly well, it was her first mission and she was managing to keep up with two experienced shinobi.

Nozomi-san picked up the little girl, making her way down to the ground. The unnamed country, as they decided to call it, was foreign to them which made it dangerous. Since they had no idea of what to expect the trio were automatically on guard.

The redhead set the girl down against a tree. Fishing through the young girl's things she pulled out her canteen and held it to the four year old's lips.

"Drink." The woman commanded. Sakura obeyed the order understanding what the change of her tone indicated.

She gulped down the water, trying not to drink the whole of the bottle's contents. They had no idea how long it would be until they came across another water source and Sakura would rather not die of dehydration.

Whilst the seventeen year old was looking after the pinkette, Shisui was busy with securing the perimeter with traps and multiple layers of genjutsu. They probably didn't need that much protection but Shisui preferred to be safe then sorry.

Nozomi-san put away the canteen before standing up and facing the preteen. "We should rest here for the remainder of the night, I'll take first watch and wake you up in about an hour." The boy nodded before laying down to get some sleep, he was out before Nozomi-san had turned back to the pinkette.

The redhead kept her word and woke up the Uchiha two hours later. She instructed him to wake her up after an hour before laying down next to the four year old to sleep. Shisui spent the hour sitting on the branch of a tree, staring up at the sky through his charcoal coloured eyes.

He woke up his two teammates an hour later and they checked their belongings before continuing on their journey. Sakura yawned tiredly as they jumped through the trees. The poor girl was still recovering from the travelling they had done only hours before. Her legs were sore and her tummy was empty and she really needed the toilet. She sighed, she would just have to be patient.

The trio didn't arrive in the Earth country until a day later and it took an extra day to reach their destination. They had set up camp a mile away from where the underground base was located. It was around ten at night and the small group were huddled around a smokeless fire, going over their mission.

"Step one is for us to actually infiltrate the base and the step two is for us to spy on them and steal any scrolls or secret information we can find." Shisui said, he had a scroll in his hands and was looking over it's content with a frown on his face. "We are allowed to eliminate the organisation if needed."

The sleepy pinkette could tell that Nozomi-san was grinning madly under her mask. She frowned as she worried her lip, surely they wouldn't have to actually kill anyone.. right?

"So are aim is to get in, steal any important information and kill anyone if necessary before getting out?" The redhead was inspecting the fire as she spoke.

"Yup that's basically it." The Uchiha said. "We should probably go through our plan to enter the base before we go to sleep." Sakura sent a glare at the Uchiha.

"Aye aye, pretty boy!" The older female exclaimed as she took the scroll off the boy. She looked at it thoughtfully before turning back towards her two teammates. "We shall spend the tomorrow trying to find the entrance to the base and observing them for a few days. Pretty boy, when the guards change or whatever you shall cast one of your genjutsus on them and me and the squirt shall sneak deeper inside the base. You'll be our lookout and will warn us incase anything goes wrong. Me and the brat shall search for the archives and steal stuff that looks important, then we can all get out undetected." Shisui sweat dropped at the basic plan.

'Are we seriously going along with that?' He wondered, sneaking a glance at his small teammate. The girl seemed unaffected by the simple plan and had moved on to laying down; she looked ready to fall asleep. Not that he could see her face or whatever but she gave of that energy.

It wasn't that the plan was a bad one it was just that it felt.. incomplete. What if something went wrong? What if they got caught? They didn't have a backup plan and it made the Uchiha slightly stressed.

He was about to open his mouth and voice his concerns when he realised that both his teammates were fast asleep.

'Guess I have first watch then..' He sighed.
