Chapter 12: Brothers of Blood and Arms
"So exactly where is the rendezvous point with Old man Jiraiya?" Kaede asked as they were down the forest path, moving further and further away from the gates of Konohagakure.
"We're meeting him at a nearby village not longer than a few moments' walk" Kakashi said as he read the scroll that was given.
"If I remember it correctly the only village that close to Konohagakure is-" Misaki wondered out loud as she fixated her eyes on the clear blue skies, the leaves of the trees around them allowing her to do so.
"Yeah, it's been a while" Kazuhiko nodded solemnly as they continued to walk, conversation nothing but a few murmurs to their older companions.
"Kazu, I'm sure he's fine, he is who he is after all" Misaki comforted her teammate with a gentle hand on his shoulder. It had been years since that incident, the day Misaki had report Sasuke's defection and collapsed in the hokage's office, the very day one of her closest friends tried to abduct her on Orochimaru's orders. However, halfway through he abandoned his orders and escaped, defecting the village like Sasuke just did.
Just like Kakashi had stated, their destination was just a few moments' walk from home, upon their arrival they were met with the deafening silence of a desolated village.
"Is this one of the said attacked village? If so they're closer than I thought" Kaede said as she, along the others set up camp for the night to indefinitely wait for Jiraiya.
"No, this village was caught in an accident killing of every Kurama clan member in it" Kazuhiko grimly revealed, sitting down with the rest of the team who have formed a circle.
"Kurama as in, Kurama Akihiko?" Kakashi confirmed, the third phantom member of team Hayate who went rogue a few years ago.
"Yeah, it was just a year after team Hayate was formed that Akihiko's family perished in an accident caused by his sister. Of course we worried for him, but he claimed that he was fine, and nothing has changed" Kazuhiko softly shared the story of their rouge teammate.
"He was a total wreak the night it happened, so much that Misaki had to put him down before he gives anyone an internal hemorrhage with his genjutsu. He was placed under the third's care for a while, Hayate-sensei even went as far as to leave him behind when the team went out for missions, in favor of his recuperation" Kazuhiko continued, looking back, those memories seemed so comically bitter to reminisce.
"Then after almost a month he emerged from his hermit of a life, his treasured golden brown locks cut short and some weird beads hanging of the end of his bangs. Looking back that should have signaled red light for me I grew up with him, but instead like some kind of idiot I blew it off like some sort of moving on mechanism he adapted to" added, his tone, growing even more bitter with every syllable that left his mouth.
"I'm equally guilty, I should have been paying attention to the him, going back it was probably around that time he got unusually stronger, his genjutsu even more so. It only makes sense now that he had helped from another" Misaki comforted with a smile that matched the sadness she felt inside. She had forgiven Akihiko long ago, but deep down, she could still feel the remnants of the bitterness she felt when Akihiko had stabbed their back, she didn't feel like the victim, instead she felt like a traitor for abandoning Akihiko without even having to leave his side.
Kaede tightened her grip, this was no secret. As a matter of fact Kazuhiko immediately reported everything once they returned to the village, but it was the very first time that the remnants of team Hayate had spoken so openly about what happened the day of the incident. Ever since that day Misaki, well Misaki was not even around to talk about it and Kazuhiko had shut himself inside Ibiki's department like an old hermit, lips remaining shut as he learned how to pry other's mouths to confessions.
"It's a good thing he ran away from the bastard Orochimaru while he can, who knows what could have happened to him if remained as one of Orochimaru's collections" Kazuhiko said, a grin falling upon his lips as he cheered Misaki's spirits.
"You're right, if there's one person who could give Orochimaru that slip, it's be him" Misaki said smilling back and staring up at the sky as she laid down on the ground where Akihiko had once walked on, wishing all the luck the gods would give her brother in arms.
"Aki…"
Shadow casted upon her as chunks of long spiky white hair blocked her view of the skies.
"Huh, I thought I'd be the first one to make here, looks like you guys have me beat" Jiraiya's boisterous laugh disturbed the still silence surrounding them.
"WHOAH!" only Kazuhiko jumped up in surprise haven't been able to detect the approach of the group's latest addition.
"Calm down, Kazuhiko, he's our guy" Kakashi said standing up.
"Huh, that's him?!" Kazuhiko said giving Jiraiya the once over.
"Jiraiya-san, this is Sarutobi Kazuhiko, Kazu this is-" Misaki was cut short when Jiraiya raised his palm in front of her face stopping her introduction midway.
"Feast your eyes! From the-" Jiraiya had a taste of his own medicine when Kaede buried her knuckles on his head.
"Enough of your shenanigans!" Kaede scolded.
'Tsunade, I thought I just saw an image of Tsunade' Jiraiya thought as he stared at Kaede as he landed on his butt.
"Sorry Jiraiya-san, but now's really not the time to be fooling around maybe some other time" Misaki smiled, holding her hand out to her ex-instructor.
"They're right, we do have some more pressing matters as of this moment," Kakashi added standing up to join the towering team in front of Jiraiya who was still sitting on his butt.
"Ehh, even you Kakashi?" Jiraiya whined disappointed that his grand entrance was once again ruined. But despite his exterior, he had made a quick but precise assessment of the team before him. Kakashi, considered to be the genius of his generation, expert tactician together with being a strong ninja in itself, even more so with the power of the sharingan at his side, the only one known outside the Uchiha clan to ever utilize the dojutsu. Kaede, one of the esteemed students of his former teammate and the current hokage of their village, killer medical-nin but also deadly with her threads and her temper too. Kazuhiko, grandson to the late third hokage and his master, considered an expert in interrogation and a powerhouse flame user, at a young age and displayed promising potential to surpass his predecessors, and lastly the midget of the group, red head Misaki who had shown just as much potential as her parents before her, who made a killer pair in their time, who knows what things she could achieve with the vision of her parents behind her, lethal with her kenjutsu, even more so with speed that rivaled only her father's.
It was a strong pick, even Jiraiya had to admit that to Tsunade, even though half of the team is on the youthful side, it didn't hinder the fact that this team is well equipped to go against the akatsuki.
Needless to say, right after Jiraiya's ungraceful entrance, the newly completed team set out what they were tasked to do, to dig a little deeper in the Akatsuki's business, since they have been sinking their claws a little too deep for Tsunade's or anybody else's tastes.
However it was getting more and more difficult to attend to the task at hand when day by day, village after village was found destroyed and desolated.
"What happened here?" Kaede finally voiced the question that has been running in her mind a few village back.
"Looks like it's been attacked, this was no accident" Kazuhiko said inspecting the grounds amidst the debris that are still wet and fertile. Which can only mean one thing, the fire didn't spread from building to building, and each one was destroyed one by one.
"It's a highly planned attack, I suspect the survivors of this village barely made it out alive, though I wouldn't be surprised if none made it out alive" Jiraiya added.
"But who could have done this, surely if this happened a month ago, the village would have known, but this, this is fresh." Kakashi observed.
"Yeah, but who could have the capability to destroy a small village in such a short time's notice?" Kaede asked.
"It's not Akatsuki, that much is certain whatever their goal might be, their movements are highly specific, too high to even bother with an entire village no matter how small it is, they don't care about witnesses. Remember when they capture Gaara? They attacked hard, but it's because they knew where to hit, no unnecessary effort spared, they wouldn't bother to slaughter an entire village, even if they could. This is a small village, so clans with special techniques don't reside here, so there goes the theory of Orochimaru" Misaki explained pinching her chin with her index and thumb, all the while unconscious of the four pairs or eyes staring at her, wondering the exact same thing.
'How is she able to identify the patterns?´ surely someone as experienced as Jiraiya and Kakashi can do so, as a doctor, Kaede can analyze a disaster's aftermath and Kazuhiko specialized in intel collection, so how was Misaki able to profile something, all four of them would have to work together to formulate?
"How are you able to tell it's wasn't Akatsuki that did this" Jiraiya asked, he suspected just as much, but he wanted to know how Misaki came up with her conclusion. Misaki look at him then turned her gaze on the burnt rubble, hesitant to provide the answer, but even she knew there was no escaping the query.
"During our travels, we were able to encounter places who suffered the aftermaths of attacks, villages big or small from several countries were barely harmed, some didn't even realize the akatsuki till after they were long gone, what about Amegakure?" Misaki theorized a question, referring to the splatters of blood, coincidentally or purposely patterned to imitate the hidden village's symbol.
"Highly unlikely, that might just be a coincidence, or it can mean an entirely different thing, nevertheless, it could not have been Amegakure" Kazkuhiko answered, to which Misaki immediately agreed upon.
"Why not?"
"Too obvious" the two youths answered in unison, smiling for himself, Kaede couldn't believe how fast those children had grown, and seems it was only yesterday that the two of them were on her case running around her house.
"We have to report this back to Tsunade-sensei, if this goes on, this could spell trouble not only for the hokage, but also the Fuedal Lord" Kaede said bringing herself back from her own medicine of nostalgia.
"I agree, we will send a message to the hokage at once, also I'm sending Kazuhiko and Misaki return to the village to report our findings to the hokage personally" Kakashi ordered.
"But-!" Kazuhiko tried to intervene, the mission isn't even half way through and already, Kakashi is ordering them back home, for reasons they don't know.
"Kazuhiko, Kakashi has his reasons, trust him" Misaki said, and although she herself is having trouble doing so as she cannot understand his decision herself, still she trusted him.
Watching as the younger members' backs disappeared in the distance, Kaede waited until they were long out of sight, till she made her statement.
"Kakashi, don't you think you're being a little too overprotective of Misaki?"
"On the contrary, I can quite understand Kakashi's decision, with villages just close outside the village in that state, it's just a matter of time when something hits Konohagakure," Jiraiya explained.
"And I'd be much at peace knowing Misaki is there for Naruto" Kakashi finished as they continued on with their mission.
"What do you think Kakashi had in mind when he ordered us back to the village?" Kazuhiko said as he and Misaki made a small stop for the night to take breather and some water.
"I'm not really sure" Misaki said and Kazuhiko choked and splattered water all over the place.
"What the heck, you sounded so sure of yourself!" Kazuhiko yelled at Misaki who only smile embarrassed as she rubbed the back of her head.
"Well what the heck, you have known him far longer than I have, so I guess you know him better than I would do" Kazuhiko sighed as they packed up and began their trek back to their home village.

"Then there were no developments that would suggest the Akatsuki organization?" Tsunade asked the jounin who stood before her that fine morning.
"Yeah, but there is no denying that a serious situation will develop. It was a horrible sight, the village was attacked in one night and most of the villagers were dead, and sure enough as if weaving along the border, several other villages were attacked after that, they were all Land of Fire Villages" Asuma reported his team's findings with their latest mission,
"Asuma, don't rush to conclusions" Tsunade warned.
"I understand that, they go to the trouble of leaving the Amegakure mark-" Asuma didn't have the time to finish his report when the door unceremoniously opened, revealing two of the four man cell she sent out to aid Jiraiya in snooping around Akatsuki activity.
"Although the marks do resemble something like the insignia of the Amegakure, but we don't think it's on purpose, we find that it pertains to another different meaning, that coincidentally happen to resemble the Amegakure's village" Misaki announced herself as she entered with Kazuhiko not far behind her.
"Kazuhiko, Misaki, weren't you supposed to be with Jiraiya and the others.?" Tsunade asked standing up.
"Sorry for the intrusion, Asuma-san, we were kind off in a rush to report. Kakashi thought it best if we return to the village to report our mission's recent developments." Misaki said bowing to the older Sarutobi in the room.
"Eh, that means we came before our message? Cool!" Kazuhiko exclaimed, earning him his uncle's fist on his head.
"Have some respect you're in the hokage's presence, besides you still haven't apologized for intruding!" Asuma scolded with a sigh.
"Eh, didn't Misaki already did that, isn't that enough for the team?" Kazuhiko reasoned earning him another fist on the head.
"Respect is not a team effort!" Asuma ground his teeth at his nephew's devil-may-care attitude.
"Enough of that, Misaki, Kazuhiko, you were about to report something?" Tsunade inquired, bringing everyone's attention back to her.
"Along our mission we came along several small scale villages under the protection of the fire and the leaf completely destroyed, leaving no survivors. The nature of the attacks doesn't suggest a movement from the akatsuki or Orochimaru and the Omo-nin, though there is a probability that the attacks were led by the Amegakure, they wouldn't leave behind evidences that would instantly trace these attacks back to them." Misaki relayed and nodded towards Kazuhiko who pulled out a scrolled map of their destinations, the villages that were found desolated were marked with 'X' and next to it was a scribbled date or a time frame.
"Each village we encountered, we marked the map and wrote the estimated date of the attack, if you look closely you'll see a pattern that the recent ones are growing nearer and neared the village." Kazuhiko explained the map in detail.
Tsunade stared down at the map thumb between her teeth as she though deeply on what movement she is about to commence with the details she had been presented to.
It's like playing shogi, only she is working against multiple opponents and that she has no idea what kind of pieces her enemies have.
"Take the information you have gathered and work with Ibiki," Tsunade ordered and Misaki and Kazuhiko followed as such. On their way out, Captain Yamato was just about to enter, who greeted them with just a nod. Just like him to prioritize his mission than his friends.
"Ah-Misaki!" the pair both turned their gazes to the source wherein Naruto stood, together with Sai, Sakura and a young monk.
"You're back, hey does that mean Kakashi-sensei is back to?" Naruto asked hopefully
"Sorry, but no, we were sent home to report the developments outside the village, Kakashi-san and mom both continued with the mission with Jiraiya-san" Misaki said as she approached her brother.
"It's nice to see you too, Sakura, Sai and I don't believe we have met before" Misaki greeted earning an 'oh yeah' from Naruto as Sakura glared at him for his indecency.
As Naruto was scolded by Sakura and Misaki watched closely, smiling in amusement along with Sai as Kazuhiko jested seeing something similar to the way Naruto and Sakura act with each other with his parents.
It all seemed such a ruckus but to Sora it was a serene scene, the noises were drowned to nothing in his ears, as his eyes focused to one thing and only one thing. The breeze from the opened window fluttered against her hair, the sun light bouncing off her vibrant red hair, and her eyes that reminded him of clear and fresh water of the ocean.
"Oh yeah, where are my manners, Misaki, Kazuhiko-san, this is Sora, a monk in training, he's here to aid us in our mission whilst Sai is recuperating" Sakura explained as Sora stood properly, bowing and thinking of way he could introduce himself, but when Misaki felt the dilemma she smiled and initiated the conversation.
"Nice to meet you, it's so kind of you to be helping us in place of Sai's recuperation." Misaki said giving Sora her million dollar watt smile.
"It's nice to stay here and chat for a while, but we have are orders Misaki" Kazuhiko reminded Misaki who simply nodded.
"Oh, right, sorry to cut it short, but we really need to get going, oh and Sai, take care of yourself," Misaki bid her good bye as she caressed Sai's shoulder, the two sharing a look before Misaki and Kazuhiko completely left the scene, with Sora watching as Misaki left his sight.
"Damn it! I looked like a total idiot I didn't even get one word out" Sora pulled at his hair as he stomped on the ground.
"Eh, what are you whining about now?" Naruto yelled at him, irritated that Sora is having a tantrum, but even more irritated at the way his eyes followed Misaki.
"Shut up you you idiot!"
Meanwhile, when Misaki and Kazuhiko were indeed too far from earshot from the group, Misaki looked out to the skies, eyes blank as if she was able to see something farther in the distance.
"Hey, Kazuhiko, did you notice something about that monk trainee?" Misaki inquired, unconsciously caressing her right hand.
"Hmm, not really no, why?" Kazuhiko pondered, placing his arms at the back of his neck.
"No, it's nothing, probably just my imagination" Misaki answered absent-mindedly still staring off into space.
For the two of them, the rest of the day remained uneventful as they relayed everything to Ibiki, who was able to spread this information.
It was only that night just as Misaki was staring off into the skies, again that she notice a powerful lighting shooting from the ground towards the skies, in fact it was so powerful that she could almost physical feel currents of electricity down her spine.
"What the heck was that?!" Misaki exclaimed standing up to alert someone.
Sure enough, the next day, the entire village of the Kohaku clan was reported to be destroyed overnight, around the same time and same place where she saw the powerful lightning.
*_-+% =o#$*_-+% =o#$LINE_BREAK*_-+% =o#$*_-+% =o#$*_-+% =o#$
"With him, it'll be a fierce struggle…I mean, like a wild uproar" Naruto whined sitting on the chair next to Sai as he rested on the hospital bed.
"Sounds like your kind of crowd Naruto" Misaki entered their conversation, placing the basket of flowers and books on Sai's bedside table before sitting down next to Sai on his bed, sandwiching her between Naruto and Sai.
"Never seen you so worked up in making a friend before" Misaki said scrutinizing Naruto, soon Naruto got so fed up with being made fun off by Misaki he left, even more confused than he was before.
Once Naruto left, Misaki noticed the worried gaze on Sai's face as he looked out the window, she figured it had something to do with Danzo and a ninja wearing Amegakure's insignia passing by his window, in chains surrounded by the hokage's Anbu. Misaki sighed, Sai was to young to be worrying over such matters of secrecy and darkness, especially with the likes of Danzo.
"Say, tell me how someone as meticulous as you get caught enough to get his arm broken in a low class mission of grave robbery none the less" Misaki standing up to prepare him a plate of fruit.
"Oh this, I actually got this when I stood in between Sakura and an enemy spider" Sai said and Misaki offered him a piece of fruit from the plate.
"Sorry, you protected Sakura from a spider" Misaki said raising an eyebrow.
"Well, I read it in a book that if you sacrifice yourself, it would boost friendship" Sai said showing the book. Misaki laughed at his antics, and sat beside him on his bed.
"You know it's okay that you're really making an effort to get closer to your friends, but seriously you really don't have to risk your life to get friends, what's matters is that it comes from here" Misaki said pointing at his chest.
"I don't understand, from my chest?" Sai asked innocently and Misaki just laughed.
Despite the urgency of their report, and the certainty of last night's lightning phenomenon and that it might have something to do with the obliteration of the Kohaku clan, Misaki stayed with Sai the rest of the day, due to the fact that her partner is called out by his sensei for interrogation purposes or something confidential. Misaki watched over Sai, until night fell and he fell asleep, whilst she read him all kinds of haikus. And when he fell asleep, she watched him wondering how such a smart man can be so clueless, how he can be ruthless and at the same time so innocent.
Misaki was snapped out of her thoughts, when the lights, no, the entire power source went out.
"What the heck is going on?" Misaki exclaimed, standing up and opening the window to look out to the completely panicked villagers.
"Misaki, thank god, the hokage has summoned us" Kazuhiko yelled, barely slipping his head on the door before disappearing.
"Sorry Sai, I'm going to have to leave you alone" Misaki bid and bolted out the door to following Kazuhiko, unbeknownst to her, Sai had been awake.
When they got there, Misaki gasped at the scene before her, everything was in a disarray, papers strewn across the room, the furniture upside down.
"What the heck happened here?!" Misaki asked Kazuhiko who stood next to her.
"Sora attempted to assassinate, the fifth hokage" Kazuhiko said with a grim face. Misaki covered her mouth, how did this happen.
"Misaki, you're here, good" the woman of the hour entered the dim room, standing before Misaki and Kazuhiko.
"Our enemy plans to use the technique called limelight" Tsunade told her, and Misaki gasped, and from Misaki's reaction, Tsunade knew that she didn't need to explain to Misaki the gravity of the situation.
"That's why there was a loss of power, they plan to burn the entire village to the crisp" Misaki whispered.
"Yes and until we can find a way to stop it, you are the contingency plan, you did mention that you can divert lightning techniques" Tsunade said.
"Wait hold up, Misaki divert the limelight technique, do you know how that would mean for Misaki, with that kind of lightning power, an equal amount of chakra has to be stored in her, besides if she makes even just a small mistake, she could die!" Kazuhiko yelled at the current hokage, with no regard whatsoever.
"Kazuhiko" Misaki's voice was serious and strong.
"We have to believe in the hokage's decisions, besides I don't doubt that they would be able to find a way to stop this" Misaki said with a reassuring smile.
"But for now, we need to help the others in the front lines" Misaki said stepping out of the window and into the night skies.
Whilst jumping from house to house, she can't help but notice the bots of electricity shooting from the grounds towards the skies, already prepping to perform the powerful lightning technique. However she didn't focus on that, instead focused on getting to the front lines wherein several konoha shinobi were battling against…corpses?!
"Genma-san" Misaki said landing next to him on the battlefield.
"Ah, Misaki, it's reassuring you're here, we could use a hand" he greeted the red head as she assessed their enemies.
"Aren't those…"
"Yeah, villagers from the Kohaku clan" Genma confirmed and Misaki gritted her teeth, not only did these people took lives, but desecrated their bodies. Misaki gripped her sword, swung it a few times before standing in an attacking stance.
"This is simply unforgivable" Misaki said and began slicing body after body, being careful not to use much of her chakra.
It was a never ending battle, whenever they take out one, five more will arise seemingly from their graves, everybody was beginning to lose their juice, until Shikamaru came and directed their attacks.
"Misaki shouldn't you be off resting and collecting your chakra?" Shikamaru approached her.
"I'm fine, I've been using mainly kenjutsu, besides, we need more people here to keep them at bay" Misaki said, wiping out her sweaty brow, Shikamaru nodded and let the girl do as she pleased. It was only a matter of time when the zombies began to disappear, first one by one, then simultaneously until the wave of land and corpses disappeared altogether.
Not long after that, the lightning bolts from the ground disappeared, seems like the enemies plans have been spoiled.
'so why doesn't feel like the end'
Suddenly an explosion rang through the entire village, and a sick, but familiar chakra burst from the ground, like a signal beam in the distance.
"Naruto" Misaki whispered, unconsciously caressing her right hand once again.
*_-+% =o#$*_-+% =o#$LINE_BREAK*_-+% =o#$*_-+% =o#$*_-+% =o#$
Misaki arrived at the scene together with Shikamaru and the others to find that it wasn't Naruto that had begun rampaging, but someone completely unexpected.
"Sora" they observed Sora as the nine tailed cloak wrapped around him, growing tails considerably fast.
Everybody tried attempt after attempt to get Sora to snap out of his rage, but each one a failure as he wielded the borrowed, yet terrifyingly effective power of the nine tailed beast.
Somehow Naruto was able to hold Sora down, but all that it did was call out to its host, wrapping Naruto himself with the nine tailed cloak.
Soon, Naruto's skin began to tear and Sora had completely lost his human form.
"This is bad" Shikamaru grunted as Sora's transformation caused an explosion pushing them all back.
Without saying anything to warn them whatsoever, Misaki strode to the center of the chaos, and placed both hands against Naruto's shoulders, ignoring the chakra burning her hands. She wielded her chakra to control his and almost as if instantly, the nine tailed cloak begun to disappear.
"Sora needs you now more than ever Naruto, he's counting on you whether he like it or not" Misaki greeted Naruto with a smile who nodded at her with a grin.
"Misaki, lend me your strength" Naruto asked standing up and Misaki nodded with a smile, and together, they both lunged at Sora, holding him down, with Naruto reaching for Sora's consciousness, just as Misaki shoved at his chakra.
"SORA!" both sibling yelled.

Chapter 12 everyone, hope you liked it, I realized I made an anachronism on the previous chapter, Yugito died after the Twelve Guardian and her death sort of becomes the catalyst for the Akatsuki Suppression Mission, but I accidentally placed it at the beginning of the Twelve Guardian Ninja arc, so for those of you who are already at this point, I have re-uploaded the chapter, but if it's too much work, I'll just be altering the parts where it was specifically mentioned, which is leaning more on the ending side, I am so sorry for that.
On another note, I have mentioned that I have been planning on making a gaiden or two about Kakashi and Kaede since during the course of the story their relationship might be taking quick abrupt turns, but that's because the picture isn't always focused on them. That being said, I still haven't finished it, I mean the outlines are done, but some scenes are just too tasteless or sometimes too strong and I just can't get the mix right.
Another thing is that I am currently working on an Itachi gaiden, but I am at odds if it would be smart to post it earlier, because I might be revealing things a little too early.
Lastly, I've also outlined Misaki's version of Road to Ninja, wherein she's trapped in an alternate universe, maybe I'll post that one, given that it might NOT reveal things that are still about to happen.
Anyway see you next chapter,
