Chapter 2: The warning
-At an underground castle-
A group of people was gathered inside a room where it was quite dark to see people's faces. "It's almost time. Zei Shu! Chin Chin!" the guy, who was sitting on a chair unlike the rest of them, called out. As from how it looks, he seems like the boss.
"Yes Lord Wei Yan?" the two responded as they came out of the darkness. The girl, who is most probably Chin Chin (duh! joke!), has curly, short light green hair and has dark blue eyes. The other guy, Zei Shu, has blonde spiky hair and crimson eyes. Zei Shu has a big sword hanging on his left shoulder while his right hand holding the handle of the sword.
"Before we visit, we should send them a message, shouldn't we?" Wei Yan, their leader, said. The two of them nodded.
"Well then, we should send them a message that we are coming so they can have the time to prepare for our coming. Go to the Konoha kingdom and send them our message." Wei Yan ordered.
"We shall be going then." Zei Shu said as he and Chin Chin disappeared.
"It is almost time for us to rise and take over this dynasty." Wei Yan said then laughed evil-ly (not that loud, the quieter kind of laugh, but in an evil way. I hope you got the picture).
-In the Konoha Kingdom-
"Ugh… Another boring day… Nothing to do." Tsunade complained.
"Why don't you try to do your work, then maybe there's something to do?" Shizune said, emphasizing on the words try, do, work. Tsunade just sighed.
"That's boring." Tsunade stated, now Shizune's the one who sighed.
"Sasuke, Sakura, please bring these paper works in Empress Tsunade's office." Kakashi said. Sasuke and Sakura took the very large pile of papers.
"Why are there a lot of them?" asked Sakura.
"There wouldn't be, if the Empress would just do them." Kakashi responded emitting little laughs from the two of them. Kakashi left leaving the two of them to carry the papers to bring to their Empress.
They arrived at the entrance door of Tsunade's office and knocked in. Shizune opened the door and they saw Tsunade who seemed really bored. "Why does she look really bored, she still has a lot of things to do." said Sasuke.
"But the thing is she doesn't want to do those things she needs to do." Shizune said as she carried the papers Sakura was carrying and placed them on the floor then getting Sasuke's next. After that they left the office.
When the two of them were on their way to train with Kakashi, there were kids who just passed them by who was chasing each other. "Hey, you might trip." Sakura tried to warn but too late, a girl tripped while her other friends didn't notice and ran off.
The girl started to cry. "Hey there, don't cry. Let me see." Sakura said as she knelt down to check the knee of the girl. "It's okay, it's just a little bruise, here." Sakura placed a band aid on the bruise and wiped the tear of the girl away and gave the girl a sweet smile.
"Thank you." the girl said as she ran off. 'She's so caring.' Sasuke thought as he stared at Sakura who was still kneeling.
Sakura stood up and smiled at Sasuke "Shall we go?" Sakura asked.
"Hn." was all Sasuke said.
Lee was sent flying off, hitting a tree. "Aw man Neji, next time, I'll beat you for sure." Lee said as he wiped off the blood dripping from his lips. Lee, Neji, Tenten and Gai were training in an open area, not a field, tiled area, with trees at the some parts.
"We'll see when that happens." Neji said.
"That's good Lee, keep training. And your youth and hard work will bring you the victory. Oh Lee…" Gai said as he started to cry.
"General Gai!" Lee said as he started to cry as well.
"Stop! Don't even think of hugging each other while calling out each other's names as if you're far away from each other, then a sunset background appears. Don't even try." Tenten said in a very threatening voice which made the two of them freeze.
"Let's go ahead." Neji said. Tenten nodded and went off.
Hinata was in the park with some little kids. Hinata sometimes goes to the park with little kids when she has time off to play with them. "Ms. Hinata, do you want to play with us in the swing?" asked Hana, a little girl who is very close to Hinata. Hinata shook her head with a smile. Then the girl went on to the swing with her other friends.
"Hey there Hinata!" Naruto greeted, as he passed by the park and saw Hinata there.
"Oh, hi Naruto (I can't put kun can I now?)." Hinata said as Naruto sat down beside her in the bench.
"You seem really tired." Hinata said
" No, I'm just bored, I have to wait for 20 more minutes till General Kakashi to arrive for our training, but I'd suspect he'd be late as usual, so I'm here." Naruto explained.
"Oh, I see." Hinata said.
Zei Shu and Chin Chin just arrived at the front gate of the kingdom. Several guards went there. "Who are you and what is your purpose for coming here?" the head of the gate guards asked.
"We're here to send a message to your dear Empress." Zei Shu answered in an arrogant tone.
"Who sent you?" the head of the guards asked.
"You don't need to know that." Chin Chin said.
"Then you cannot enter." the guard said.
"Well, not the kind of welcome I wanted for our little visit, but I guess this will do. We don't really need to enter, but we can entertain ourselves here for the meantime." Zei Shu said as the guards charged at the two of them.
"Hey, I better get going, Sasuke and Sakura might be there by now." Naruto said.
"BOOM!" an explosion could be heard. Naruto and Hinata stood up at a sudden shock. "What was that?" Naruto asked. Hinata gathered the children and told them to go home. Then she and Naruto went to the front gate to see what happened.
They arrived at the front gate together with Neji and Tenten. " What the--" Naruto and the rest were shocked at what sight they saw when they arrived there. The guards were down and were badly injured, then the two people who were standing there at the front caught their attention.
"Who are you?" Neji asked.
"You don't need to know our names for now. We were just sent here to deliver a message." Zei Shu started.
"Oh yeah? Well then, what's the message?" Tenten asked sternly.
"Whoa, we have a tough one here." Zei Shu said mockingly, this got Tenten pissed.
"Stop it. Anyway, tell your Empress to prepare her best warriors and get ready for a big battle. Tell her to prepare for the coming of the Yang Army." Chin Chin said.
"What? What Yang Army? Who are you?" Hinata asked in confusion.
"You'll know soon enough. Oh and tell your empress to get ready to give up her reign, for soon, this dynasty will have a new ruler." Zei Shu said.
"What do you mean?" Naruto asked but the two (Zei Shu and Chin Chin) disappeared before their questions could be answered.
The new captains, the generals (Kakashi, Kurenai, Asuma, Gai, and Anko), the legendary Jiraiya, some other important people who are not so important to me so I'm not mentioning them (elders, etc.), Shizune and Tsunade were in the conference hall discussing about the incident that happened a while ago.
"We must take action Tsunade." Jiraiya said from the corner of the room where he was leaning. The generals and the captains were sitting at the long table with Tsunade, Shizune was standing, and the elders had another table.
"But we don't know who they are and--"
"But even then, we mustn't take this at ease, they were powerful enough to beat all of the guards that guard the front gate." Sasuke said cutting Chouji off.
"Also, they were only two that time. And there were around 15 guarding the front gate." Sakura said.
"And they said 'army', so that must mean there are more of them." Shikamaru stated.
"We must do something, this isn't a joke." Kurenai said with a very stern face, all of them had stern faces, or rather, Kurenai always had a stern face.
Tsunade banged her hands on the table. Everyone looked at Tsunade "Fine, all of you, prepare yourselves as well as all the other warriors you hold under you. Prepare for an attack at any moment; do not let your guards down. We don't know who our enemy is or how strong they really are, but even then, be prepared. Meeting is over." Tsunade said as she stood up and left the room followed by Tsunade. Everyone in the room had serious faces and they obviously have a lot of questions lurking in their heads. Soon they all left as well.
