Chapter 15: New Faces
"Yo."
"Kakashi-sensei! What are you doind here?" Naruto asked. Kakashi shrugged "Hokage-sama called me, and it looks like along with everyone else." He said facing the other ten people in the room.
"I called you here to simply tell you that the kunoichi in your team will be going on a long mission, so do not expect them to come in only a few days. And I'm certain you can handle your missions on your own." Sarutobi told them.
"But you said there were no D or C ranked missions yesterday." Kiba said. Sarutobi sighed He just had to remember that.
"And if this mission is above C-rank, shouldn't they have a Jounin with them? Three of them after all only became ninja three months ago." Kurenai added.
"For this mission they were chosen specifically, with no extra members. And I'm sure they can handle it on their own."
"What rank is this mission exactly." Asuma asked. "S." Sarutobi quickly said, but then his eyes widened How could that have slipped out of my mouth?!
"What?" exclaimed Lee, Naruto, and Kiba. "That's like higher then a A-rank mission!" exclaimed Naruto but then he mumbled "So lucky."
"You do not need to worry. They are all ready for any of the challenges they'll face. You are all dismissed." But while they were heading out Sarutobi said "I believe I have some missions for some teams." At this they turned around.
"Is it also S ranked?!" Lee asked.
"No, it seems we have a few D rank available."
"The girls are sooo lucky!!" exclaimed Naruto, the boys mentally agreed with that. But Sarutobi just sighed You don't know how wrong you are, Naruto. They are lifting a heavy burden that none of you would be able to carry...

At the Land of Wind One Week Later...
"We're almost there! If we continue tomorrow at dawn we'll be there before nightfall." Hinata-Sakura said examining the map.
"Remember what Tsunade-sama said?" Sakura-Tenten said starting up a conversation.
"What?" Ino-Hinata asked.
"The necklaces. The symbols are like the elements. Water, earth, fire, and lightning. And she said when we get back to normal the necklaces we wear are the ones for the mind not body."
"Yeah. So?"
"Our special gifts. They all deal with the elements. Water, no need for air underwater. Earth, touch a plant and it becomes a weapon. Lightning, gives off electrical energy. Fire, well nothing happened to me, a.k.a. Sakura in Tenten's body, yet."
"What are you implying?"
"Hinata is in my real body. But I don't think that means the water power belongs to me. It belongs to Hinata. Same with all of yours. Our necklace is what symbolizes it. But nothing fire-related happened to me yet."
"So that means I'm earth? I thought the real Ino would be earth, not me." Tenten-Ino said. Sakura-Tenten shrugged "But do you really think Hinata wouldn't be water?"
"You're right there. But the elements. There are five-"
"Ahem."
They faced the new voice. It was a man around his twenties, that had red spiked up hair, yellow eyes, he wore a fishnet top with a red jacket over it, and black baggy pants, with dark red sandals. He had a forehead protector but the symbol was a flame.
He also had a weapon, two blood red daggers in his hands. They seemed to emit some sort of flame.
Somewhere High Above...
The female, who can sense things, looked up remembering something "Did I forget to tell him?"
"Tell him what? That he used too much gel again?" The other immature female asked.
"No-"
"That he should stop eating spicy food?"
"No-"
"That you love him?"
"Shut up."
"You're gonna have to tell him sooner or later-" the first female bonked her on the head. The other one winced "Fine! What did you forget to tell him?"
"That the ones travelling are incomplete."
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO
"You mean they are heading here right this moment?" A female asked.
"Yes." Tsunade said.
"Are they aware that they might encounter some trouble?"
"... Not exactly."
"You did send for the last one though, correct?"
"Of course. But I wonder how they'll react to her... attitude."
"What do you mean?"
"You can call her plain out mean to girls her age."
"But she is two years older."
"Its still close enough."
She sighed "They really are the incarnations."
"What do you mean?"
"Even their relationship with each other is still the same."
Back Down...
The male arrival examined them I have to keep my guard up, one could be hiding anywhere.
He raised his two daggers, the girls got into their fighting stances. He smirked at them "Do you honestly think you can stand a chance?"
Ino-Hinata scoffed "Its four against one. We have you outnumbered." His smirk disappeared Four?
"What do you want anyway? We don't want a fight." Sakura-Tenten asked. He shrugged "I just want to see how weak the so called 'saviors' are. Is that so wrong?"
"Saviors?"
"You don't know? That must be why you asked. So why don't I get rid of you all now? Before you enter the grown ups area!" Then he headed towards them daggers ready.
Sakura-Tenten readied her scrolls, and sent hordes of weapons at him. He blocked them all and the weapons went flying back to her. Ino-Hinata headed towards him with her gentle fist, but he attacked her with his weapons.
He headed for her feet but she jumped up and his daggers hit the ground. When she landed back down she got stuck in floor. He smirked then was about to attack her when some vines wrapped itself around his arms.
Tenten-Ino was holding onto a tree and her necklace was glowing. Sakura-Tenten headed towards him with kunai ready but his daggers gave off even a bigger flame and burned up the vines. He jumped back from Sakura-Tenten and Tenten-Ino's onslaught of weapons.
He jumped into the air "Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!" A huge fireball headed towards them, they were able to get away but Ino-Hinata's feet was stil stuck to the ground.
Sakura-Tenten came in front of her then the fireball hit the two. But when the smoke cleared the two were okay. Ino-Hinata smiled "Looks like you really are fire." noticing the fact that the fire didn't affect her at all. Sakura-Tenten smirked.
Then they faced the enemy. He frowned The one with fire and earth can already do techniques. I don't stand a chance against all of them if they all have been trained like that. I need backup. Or... I have to fallback.
But before he could do anything a strong gust of wind attacked him. But he didn't get hurt, he disappeared in flames. Ino-Hinata used her Byakugan "He's gone. But someone else is here."
"You got that right." The blonde with four ponytails said. They faced the girl.
She smirked at them "Tsunade-sama did say I would encounter some company. I just didn't think they would be close to losing against only one openent."
"What does that mean?" Ino-Hinata asked her.
"It means you Leaf ninja really are weak."
