Chapter Two
Spiders Have Feelings Too
Shizune gave her Hokage a funny look as she took the scroll from her hands, "What's so funny, Tsunade-sama?"
"Nothing, nothing…" the older woman chuckled, "Now send that message straight to Suna and don't let any one else read it, got it?"
"Yes, Tsunade-sama…" she said, casting one last confused look over her should before walking out to give the paper to the awaiting ninja.
As soon as Shizune was gone, Tsunade burst out laughing, "HA! Wait till Sakura finds out I really did tell Gaara she thinks he's cute! Hee hee hee…" Reaching for her beloved bottle of sake, the blond woman thought of the redheads reaction when he found a note scribbled at the bottom of the monthly Konaha-Suna relations report. She glanced at the clock, uncorking the bottle, and frowned. It was already nine o'clock…where was that apprentice of hers?

Mean while, some where in Sound…
"Did you get her? Let me see!"
"Whoa, Pinky sure did change!"
"I want to see!"
"What's going on?"
"Get away you vultures!" Kidomaru yelled, flailing his arms and affective shooing the people from his vicinity, "don't you have any thing better to do?"
"No…" they all replied.
"Every since Sasuke-kun came Orochimaru hardly has any time for us." Kin said with disgust, "You two were lucky you got a mission at all."
Dark looks came over the small group along with mutterings of things like 'stupid Sasuke' and 'Sasuke-teme' and the such.
Kidomaru sighed. It was true and no one could deny it. Orochimaru clearly liked Sasuke better than any of them and only kept them around for back up and minor missions, "Be that as it may, Dosu and I have been assigned to watch her so-HEY! Let go!"
"I want to see." Kimimaru said, tugging at the girl in his arms, "I am curious."
"Stop that! She's not a toy!" the Sound spider snapped, sweeping the girl away from him, "and I though you had no emotions! Why are you suddenly so intere-ZAKU!"
"What?"
"I saw that! Keep your hands to yourself, perv!"
"Her hair is still glossier than mine." Kin said, tugging at a buble gum lock.
"AAAAAAAAAAUUUHG! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?" Kidomarue screamed before turning and bounding down the hall, taking the new 'guest' to her room.

There was a knock at the door and Tsunade yelled, "Its about time! Where have y- oh…Hyuga. Nara. Can I help you?"
"We're looking for Sakura-san. Have you seen her?" Neji asked, leaning against the doorframe.
The Hokage frowned slightly, "No…Sakura isn't here at the moment."
"How troublesome…" Shikamaru sighed, "All we wanted was to ask her if she wanted to come to our Shogi Tournament tonight."
Tsunade smiled softly. Over the years the three 'geniuses' of Konaha had become good friends, often seen training or playing Shogi, "Actually, could you two do something for me?" Neji nodded and Shikamaru groaned, "Sakura was supposed to meet me here a while ago. I want you two to go and find her. Then you can ask her to play and I'll get my student back. Ok?"
"Very well." The pale eyed prodigy said, "Come on Nara."
"Troublesome…" Shikamaru mumbled. They both walked out the door, heading to the Haruno house.

"How did I get stuck with these freaks?" Kidomaru grumbled, opening the door to the 'guest' room and walked in, "I mean really…it's like they've never seen a girl before!" laying the pink haired girl down on the bed, he stood back, looking her over. Sure, she was cute…ok really cute. She was monstrously strong and, according to their spies, very intelligent.
Leaning down, Kidomaru brushed a cherry stand of hair from her face. She looked so innocent and vulnerable just laying there. Was this really the girl who had tried to gnaw Zaku's arm off? Blinking, he realized his hand hadn't left her face yet and his thumb had begun to gently stroke her cheek. He pulled his hand back like she was burning him and glared at the offending appendage, "Not you too…" he said to the arm. But, of course, it said nothing nor did it offer any explanation for the tingling in his stomach.

"Shizune, did you take that massage to be sent?"
"Yes ma'am."
"Good. Now I was thinking-"
"HOKAGE-SAMA!"
Blinking, the busty blond looked up to see Neji and Shikamaru bursting into her office. Both were looking more anxious than she ever remembered seeing them, "Hyuga? Nara? What is the meaning of-"
"She's gone!" Neji snarled, trusting something in Tsunade's face. She frowned at him, his pale eyes burning with a cold fury she hadn't seen before. Looking past him she saw Shikamaru looking positively miserable as he slid down the wall, "What is this?"
"She gone…" the lazy mastermind mumbled, as if trying to convince himself, "She's gone…"
Feeling rather unnerved, Tsunade looked down at the thing Neji had given her. It was a plain envelope with a single music note on it. Paling she turned it over and opened it slowly. Two things fell out. One was a piece of paper which she picked up and read, "Dear Hokaga, We have taken your apprentice. We have some needs of her. Stay away and you may get her back some day. Any attempts at rescue may end unpleasantly for your adopted daughter. I hope this hurts as much as when you tried to kill me under the impression of being my friend. All my love, Orochimaru."
"That bastard!" Neji screamed, grabbing the letter, "That slimy, freaky, gay BASTARD!"
"She's gone…" Shikamaru repeated again.
But Tsunade ignored them both. Instead she was glaring down at the second item, "You forgot sick and twisted…" she said softly, crumpling the picture of young her, Jiraiya and Orochimaru.
Darkkinkachu: Orochimaru scares me. I mean really…he is uber creepy (Especially when he's in the he-she-it disguise in The Forest Of Death. –shiver shudder-). And he strikes me as the kind of thing that would execute a cruel cold revenge so…yeah. I think I had a little too much fun with the Sakura-arriving-at-Oro's-house-thing-and-every-one-wants-to-see-her. mah bad…I also noticed I've been spelling some names wrong. Oops…
Dosu: hey! I wasn't in this chapter!
