Chapter 7: A spin to the story
Sasuke and Sakura were still tied on each opposing pole, while Naruto battled against Itachi's ally; Sachi.
While the two young ninjas were unconscious of what is happening outside Itachi's lair a shadow passed through the wall and sneaked past the ninjas guarding Sasuke and Sakura.
The shadow first stood in front of the unconscious Uchiha prodigy and pulled out a kunai then the rope wrapped around him slipped from his arms. The shadow was about to cut off Sakura's ropes when Itachi showed himself before the shadow. Itachi made some seals and the shadow disappeared before him and now standing before him was a young girl with crimson colored hair and dark green eyes.
"Sayaka, why are you helping our prisoners?" Itachi walked closer to the girl.
The girl backed away. "Just doing someone a favor." She replied.
"Who might it be?" Itachi smiled mischievously.
The girl smirked and formed some hand seals and a dozens of kunais rained down from the ceiling straight to Itachi. "None of your business!" she added before rushing off to cut Sakura's ropes.
Itachi dodged every kunai aimed at him. He looked passed his prisoners and found them being carried by two kage bunshins of Sayaka.
"Sayaka! Give them back to me!" he demanded, chasing after a swift runner Sayaka.
"Not a chance master!" she closed her eyes and then BOOM. An explosive kunai interrupted Itachi's chase for his two prisoners.
Sachi stopped running away from Naruto when she heard the loud explosive. Naruto also stopped but he found a clear opening at Sachi and aimed his own kunai to her right leg, which stabbed Sachi's leg after many attempts. The woman winced in pain and fell off the tree branch and hits her head on a rock. Naruto began to feel pity over her but he must save first his friends.
"Sakura! Sasuke!" Naruto jumped into an opening in Itachi's lair and found the same red haired girl coming up to him. "Hey! Why are you carrying my friends?" he asked worriedly.
"Are you these two's companion?" she asked stopping in front of Naruto.
Naruto nodded.
"Here! You must go now, my master will be looking for you anytime soon." She favored.
"How about you?" Naruto picked up Sasuke.
The girl smiled at him and nodded. "Go now! I'll be all right!" then Naruto was off.
Before they were about to leave Itachi's premises, Naruto glanced over at the already burning lair and then it struck him… that girl was wearing a necklace that looks exactly to the one Tsunade was wearing.
Who is the mysterious red haired girl that maybe linked to Tsunade's past? Could she be another enemy to Konoha or an ally against Itachi's clutches?
