The Plan Begins:

Cheetah was waiting for them when Widow, Taka, and Jackal entered the base. The cat masked Anbu stood tall and straight. "I take the mission was a success if you three are back," she said.

Jackal stepped forward. "Yes, Captain. Everything went according to plan," he said.

Cheetah nodded. "Good. I expect to see the full report on my desk tomorrow morning. Also, Widow. I want a report from you tomorrow as well," she said.

Widow saluted. "Hai, Captain!" she said.

Cheetah eyed her before grunting in acceptance. "Alright, that's all for tonight. The three of you are dismissed," she said. As she got ready to walk away, however, a grunt from Widow caught her attention.

Turning around, she gave the girl her attention. "What is it, Widow?" she asked.

The spider masked operative stepped in front of Jackal. "Well, Captain. Taka had something to show you," she said.

Cheetah turned to Taka, but before she could even ask what he wanted, Jackal trapped her with his shadows. Taka held up two fingers. "What the hell," she said. However, before she could react, it was over.

Widow snapped her fingers in front of her. "Captain, are you alright? You suddenly froze on us," she asked.

Cheetah shook her head as she looked at Jackal and Taka. The two hadn't moved from where they were standing. "What happened just now? I thought Taka had something to show me?" she asked.

Widow snorted. "Oh he did, but unfortunately he's too low on chakra right now to do so. It's a real shame since it was an awesome technique," she said.

Taka grunted to show his annoyance at the situation. "My apologies Captain. I thought it was going to work," he said.

Cheetah growled. "Well, next time, make sure you have enough chakra before you waste my time. Now go clean up for dinner," she said, marching away.

If she had turned back, she would have noticed the smirks on her charges faces. Widow removed her mask to reveal a beautiful pale-faced girl with violet-blue eyes, pink plump lips, and gorgeous red hair. "So the plan begins," she said, her voice nothing more than a whisper.

Jackal and Taka nodded beside her. Taka removed his mask, revealing a pale faced, black-eyed boy with black spiky hair. "The Genjutsu is in place. So how do you want to do this?" he asked.

Jackal removed his mask, revealing an olive-skinned boy with brown hair held back in a high ponytail, and brown, narrowed eyes. "I say our best course of action is to take the rest out one by one. What do you think, Naru?" he asked.

The girl turned her violet-blue eyes on her teammate. "I trust your judgement, Shikamaru. What do you think, Sasuke?" she asked.

Sasuke nodded. "It's decided then," he said.

Naru turned away. "Well then, we better get ready for dinner," she said.

The three then parted to their rooms. Shikamaru and Sasuke went to the left and Naru went right. Naru wasn't surprised to find the hallway leading to her bedroom empty. It usually was these days, which was fine by her. As her door came into view, she paused in her steps. Quickly, she searched the area for any hidden chakra signatures. To her eerie, she found one hiding on her ceiling.

Naru's eerie quickly changed to mirth. A small smirk played on her lips. "Boar, today is not your day," she thought.

Walking into her room, she shut the door behind her. Acting like she was unaware of the intruder in her chambers, she began acting like she was getting ready for a shower. As she pulled her gear off, she felt Boar's chakra spike. Grabbing a fresh set of clothes, she got her hygiene supplies and headed to the shower. She paused as she reached the bathroom, acting as if she forgot something. Unsealing her katana from under her clothes, she turns. "Wind Style, Wind Cutter!" she says.

Boar, who had used the invisible jutsu to hide himself, materialized. "Damn it, that hurt Red. If I didn't know any better, I'd say you were actually trying to hurt me," he said.

Naru's eyes were cold as ice as she stared at Boar. Getting into a battle stance, she aimed her katana at him. Boar eyed her. "I see you're not playing," he said.

Naru threw her sword in the air. "Wind Style: Wind Blade," she said. In an instant, a sword made of wind came at Boar.

The Anbu tried to move but found to his surprise that he couldn't. "What the hell!" he said. Unfortunately, that was the least of his problems as the jutsu hit its mark.

The man doubled over as he coughed up blood. He glared at Naru. "What the hell did you do to me?" he asked.

Naru jumped down as she finished retrieving her sword. "I hate to break this to you, Boar, but you're an idiot. Did you think I didn't notice the lust filled way you act towards me? I've known for a while that you've been spying on me at night when you think I'm asleep. With that in mind, I added poison seals on the ceiling in case you did ever try to attack me," she said.

Boar gritted his teeth. "You knew about me spying on you? Then why didn't you report me to Cheetah?" he asked.

Naru stared at him impassively. "It wouldn't have done anything. Besides, I like to take care of my own problems," she said.

Boar tried to stand. "Well, don't think I'll fall to you easily. Prepare yourself, little girl," he said. The next few seconds were a blur to the man, as he realized in shock that he couldn't move.

At his wide-eyed stare, Naru smirked. "Tranquilizers are a wonderful thing, don't you think? Your large physic has always given you an advantage. Unfortunately, tonight it's your downfall. One-hundred seals should keep you down just enough for me to finish you," she said.

Boar couldn't speak as he dropped to the ground. Naru appeared behind him in no time. "Good night, Boar," she said. In one quick slice, she beheaded the man.

Naru stared at the body for a second before summoning two clones. "Deal with this," she said. The clones saluted and were just about to begin their grizzly task when there was a knock on the door.

Naru turned to the door, watching as the person on the other side tried jiggling the knob. "Whose there?" she said.

A second of silence lapses before a feminine voice sounds through the door. "Naru dear, open up. It's me Niko," she says.

Naru scowls. "Shit, what the hell is she doing here? I thought the boys were going to take care of her?" she thinks.

Turning to her clones, she gives them their new orders. "Put him in the closet," she says, her voice a whisper.

The clones salute and rush to do their task. Meanwhile, Naru stalks to the door. "I'm coming Niko," she says. Oh well, plans change. She'll deal with this unforeseen hindrance then she'll finish the rest.
