Cloud Country, Huui's territory

Damn! Things weren't supposed to happen that quickly. How did they even have the time to do such powerful genjutsu. There were two simple possibilities. 1: They knew that they were coming because they were the responsible of the explosions of the 2 compounds but there was a snag in this possibility. If they were really the responsible they would have attacked earlier, ne? They wouldn't have waste their time to eliminate them in their territory. They would have killed them directly at the second they would have sensed their chakra signatures behind them. The second possibility and the one which seems to be the most probable; it was an ambush for anyone who crossed over their turf. This option leads us to an almost certain fact: this clan wasn't the culpable. They were just defending what was theirs. Tenten moved closer to Ino.

"Ino… You know that kind of mission where you have to use your charm…" Tenten whispered.

The mind controller looked at her wide eyes.

"I can't Shika is here."

Tenten rolled her eyes.

"He won't mind at all if you save his dear lazy ass. Do it already! We don't have all day."

Ino shook her head. 'Shika will hate me if I do it…'

"What don't you do it?! I don't want to do this kind of things in front of my fiancé."

"In case you have forgotten, Ino, Neji is here. He would kill them all if I do something like that."

The 2 women shivered thinking about what the King may do if the woman he had apologized to does something like that.

"Fine, let me try the 'we-are-lost-with-the-puppy-eyes' act. If they don't buy it, you will have to do something."

Tenten nodded slightly.

"Do ahead I'm dying to watch the act with the puppy eyes." She smirked.

Ino closed her eyes and approached the men sniffing with her hands on her chest. She opened her eyes with her best puppy eyes looking at them.

"We are sorry to have crossed your territory… but please don't kill us we were lost." She stated sniffing with her lips trembling.

Tenten thought she was going to die laughing while the boys were staring at Ino wide eyes. They knew Tenten and she had whispered something but they thought it was a good plan not a try and guess game. They sweat dropped. 'This is never going to work.'

"Stop your act, woman, you are the one who broke the genjutsu. In other words, you are ninjas."

The men stared at each other from the corner of their eyes. 'I knew it was never going to work.'

Ino turned around on her heels and did a slight move of the head towards Tenten who rolled her eyes.

"Okay… We need to talk guys. It's an emergency."

The forty-five men began to laugh and the three ninjas sweat dropped again. 'What kind of plan is that?'

"If you don't listen carefully I will kill you all one by one and if you even dare to think I'm joking well that's your funerals."

They stopped brutally laughing and Tenten smirked. 'Now the final blow…'

"I want to talk to the Leader of the Huui. Tell him The Death wants to talk to him."

They widened eyes staring at her not knowing if they had to panic or to laugh. One of them laughed and broke the row of men. He had a scar under his silver eyes. His black hair was almost touching his shoulder. He had a gait of a noble. The man approached the chocolate haired woman facing her.

"What do you want, dear? I'm the Leader of the Huui clan, Jee Huui. Now, tell me what The Death is doing in my territory with a bunch of friends."

Tenten smirked and drew a kunai under his throat. The men of the Huui clan approached but were stopped by Kiba, Ino, Neji and Shikamaru who told them through their eyes that if they walked any further their chief he was dead.

"Do you really think I am that stupid?"

Jee cocked his brows looking at her.

"Since when does a leader will come out that easily? I mean I just state I was The Death and you come out fresh like the wind of the morning. No, a true leader would have stepped back and sent one of his men to pretence to be him. Don't you think? Because a leader will never take the chance to be killed. He would probably hide for a while then come out if he judges that everything is alright. What do you think about that plan?"

She pressed the kunai on his throat and the supposed leader 'pouf' being soon substituted by a man dressed in robs of a high ranked officer. She smirked and the immobilized the man on the ground with her foot on his abdomen.

Soon the same man with the scar came out.

"Liberate my officer, Madam." He ordered coldly hands joined in his back.

Tenten removed her foot from the officer who stood up and ran behind his Leader in a military stance.

"What do you want and what are you doing in my territory?"

Neji approached him and threw the bag full of money at the feet of Lord Huui.

"We want to talk business. I'm Neji Hyuuga, the leader of the Hyuuga clan."

The 2 Lords began an eye contest while everybody sweat dropped.

"Neji, we don't have time to waste! Ask your damn questions that we can get out of here."

The King slightly nodded towards Ino because the thing she wasn't saying out loud was that her chakra was too low for a battle. The Genjutsu Released was a useful jutsu but it used almost 75 percent of the user's chakra. It was a very good thing that she had taken a chakra pill before because she would be barely standing.

"Did you attack Konoha?"

Tenten slapped her forehead. What kind of question was that? Of course he would say 'no'. What kind of idiots will answer 'yes'. The Huui smirked amused. The chocolate haired woman moved in front of Neji.

"Are you the one who invent the Soul Torture no jutsu?"

Lord Huui frowned slightly.

"We are a clan of Torture users but we don't have any kind of soul torture. Konoha had been attacked?"

She rolled her eyes. His question was cliché but the innocent tone wasn't there.

"Yes. The Inuzuka compound and The Uzumaki compound had been blow up."

The men snorted around them and Jee Huui laughed.

"I'm not stupid. Nobody is that stupid to attack the Uzumaki clan and less the Inuzuka. With those dogs they can smell us because we even stepped in the Fire Country. We didn't do anything besides if we were the one to do such a thing do you really thing we would have let you step in our territory. We would have stopped you before by killing you all. Besides…"

He did a quick move of the hand and a needle flew towards Tenten. She grabbed it examining it.

"A needle for acupuncture and with a poison on it to intensify the pain… Your clan throws these needles in the acupuncture's point to plunge the victim in pain but with the poison it's 2 times worse."

"The acupuncture's point? You mean the chakra point?"

"No… The Hyuuga clan is the only one able to se the chakra point. Their techniques are about the weaknesses of the human body, like for example between the bones or simply under a bone. In one word, their techniques had nothing to do with any soul torture."

Lord Huui nodded satisfied.

"Exactly, but the Bifhou clan uses Genjutsu. Maybe they have developed a new technique. I don't know. We don't talk at all. We are mostly rival clans because we are 2 clans of Torture users. However, I think that your thing smells the Gushij clan."

Shikamaru laced his fingers together for several seconds.

"He's right. Nobody attacked us. No one would have waited until we stepped in their country to attack us. No, he's right. This mess is the result of the Gushij clan. The Bifhou clan would have attacked us before we stepped in their country to prevent us to alert the King. This kind of thing is considered like a high treason so they would have lost everything. From their compound to their money in bank so they will try to stop even if the half of their clan dies. In other word, we don't have a second to lose. Konoha is in danger and the team you send in the Sand too."

The 5 ninjas bowed their head in the direction of the leader of the Huui clan.

"If you would excuse for our intrusion but we need to go. You can keep the money; it was too heavy for Neji anyway… Bye!"

They disappeared running towards the Fire Country. After 2 minutes Shikamaru was obliged to pick up Ino bridal style because her chakra was too low. He signed a troublesome woman as she fell asleep.

"What are we going to do, now, Neji?"

He frowned looking straight in front of him. Tenten bit her below lip. He must be mad or maybe he was just feeling guilty. After all, maybe that if he had married Lady Amaya like the elders had told him this situation would have never happened. Maybe it was the revenge of the Gushij clan because he had refused to marry the brat and heiress of their clan. He closed his eyes. Maybe nothing would have happened in the first place if he had accepted the proposition. His economy would have climbed, the 2 compounds will never have been blow up and his people would not have died in the explosion. He signed. There was no way back. Everything was already done… However, if the Gushij clan was the responsible of all this mess, it almost means that they were the one who killed the Jurinai clan. Even if the second part was his fault they had already killed a clan of his people. They must pay. No one messes up with a Hyuuga and get out alive. It was a fact. However, more he was thinking about it more he felt like something was missing in the puzzle, something important that he was not getting at all.

"I don't know, Tenten… But this clan will die from my hands I swear."

She smirked looking back in front of her.

"However, you will stay hun?"

"What do you mean?"

"I mean that you will stay in Konoha even if I don't need you to act as my bride anymore…"

She rubbed her neck avoiding his white eyes.

"I don't know…"

"Why not? Tenten, don't you have enough of running all around the world? Stay in Konoha with…me."

"I don't know, Neji, I really don't know…"

She looked down at the necklace he had given her which was moving across her chest at each of her movements. She didn't want to leave but at the same time it was like an obligation. She knew it wouldn't be good to stay in Konoha especially if other people like Kiba still remembered her. In the other hand, Neji… She shook her head. Everything was too confused. She will think about it later when everything will be finished, when Neji will rule a peaceful country, when the Gushij clan will be disgraced and when she would finally accept her past…

Suna, Gushij castle

Lord Gushij was walking around his office in front of his officers and the scribe who was still writing down what he had dictated.

"I have finished it, My Lord, do I have to sign it?"

He passed his hand through his beard in a thinking position. If he doesn't sign the letter they would have a little more time and Lady Hyuuga who was in charge of the Country will begin to panic which will probably be a very good torture for her mind, to agree at the condition of the letter and to be hated by her dear brother or to refuse and to be hated by her brother to have refused to save his people. He smirked still caressing his beard. However, to sign the letter can be a good idea too. She will have to choose between to be hatred by her brother, to give the Country, to save everybody and to agree to the letter at the clan of Amaya, the one who could have averted all that if her dear brother had chosen to marry her. In fact, it was completely false from A to Z but he was certain that Lady Hyuuga would think something like that. Furthermore, she will probably begin to panic because her dear brother had chosen the wrong direction. If Lord Gushij was lucky, she would even think that it was a trap. Yes… That was a good idea. He turned on his heels to face the scribe smirking.

"Add at the bottom that some of my men are taking care of her dear brother and of his men. Then, put the seal of our clan."

The old man nodded and did what he had been told. He handed the letter to the Lord who read quickly. He nodded slightly satisfied. He handed it to another man who disappeared in a pouf of smoke. He appeared in a big room where he tied the letter on the paw of one of the fastest eagle they possessed. He appeared back in the room and bowed his head.

"The letter had been sent, My Lord."

Lord Gushij smirked. Now he just needed a way to oblige the King to give him the Kingdom of the Fire Country without a second thought. He must find something that he cherished too much to let it go and to give up My Lady to him. What is the most precious thing for him? He passed another hand through his beard under the cold stare of his subalterns. They knew that if they do even a slight sound the Leader of the Gushij clan would probably kill the responsible to have interrupted his thought. Suddenly, a clear plan drew by itself in his head. He smirked. The real question was: Who was the most precious person for the King? Who will make him abandon his Country and his supposed fiancée? Who was the first person he would ever choose to save in any situation? His smirk grew wider as he turned around to face his best officers.

"I have a mission for you dear Kaede."

The woman smirked and approached his leader.

"I'm listening, My Lord."

"I want you to get…"

He moved a picture on his desk in her direction.

"… This person and to meet up with me in the Forest of Konoha on in the usual point. Understand? You take 10 men with you. I supposed it will be enough. Dismissed."

She bowed and vanished in a pouf of smoke with 10 men who were already in the room.

If everything happened like they were supposed to, Konoha, the Fire Country and My Lady will be in his hands within 3 days. He smirked and sat down behind his desk.

"Now, we wait… But it will worth for. A Deadly Weapon will soon be executed in front of all the court. Of course you are all invited!"

They laughed around him as his smirk grew wider. Suddenly, the door opened and a General entered bowing his head at the sign of his leader.

"Three men will soon penetrate our territory. Do I kill them right now?"

"Tell me who are they."

"The woman is the sister of the Kazekage, there's a man who doesn't possess any ninjutsu or genjutsu skills at all and an Aburame. It seems that Kankuro has replaced The Kazekage and that Lord Kazekage had quit the country to help Konoha."

"Then, it seems that we will soon possess Suna too… Bring me the woman and locked up the 2 men in the prison. All of you go! I want them under chains before they even dare step in my castle. Dismissed."

"Hai!"

They all vanished at the same time leaving the Lord laughing hysterically. Suna and the Fire Country will soon be his.

I told you! I love to finish my chapter in a dramatic way!

LOL!
