Warning!: I do not own Naruto or any other Anime or Manga I shall include in this story. Suing me will not do a damn thing! Also many things are not for younger audiences. Viewer discretion is advised.
It was early morning. The Chunin Exams were finished over three months ago. The Akatsuki members were all in the outskirts of Konoha. All of them looked at the village below.
"Today's the day, un?" Deidara said trying to get the others to talk
"Shut up Deidara" Kakuzu said looking at his leader "Lord Pein, Do we start?"
He said nothing.
The girl was by his side. She looked as though she was brainwashed.
Orochimaru laughed, "hmhmhmhmhm, It doesn't matter, as long as we destroy the leaf village, It does not matter when" he said as all eyes were on him.
"Alright, it is time." He said "Deidara, Sasori take to the skies and scout the area. Orochimaru call your village and tell them to stand by, everyone else stick to the plan."
Everyone acted upon his orders. The girl looked up at "Ka...zu..."
"Silence," He said "That name is dead to me"
Naruto was crying over Hinata's lifeless body. He was sad and angry at the same time. He saw a Shadow-faced figure laughing. Naruto's Chakra turned Blood Red and tails came bubbling out of his back. He ran in rage to the faceless figure.
Naruto shot up. He has had this dream ever since the Chunin Exams. It always ends the same, He always ended up crying and sweating like crazy in his bed.
He could not figure out why these images were in his head.
"Hey, Kyuubi?" Naruto
"Yeah Naruto?" A man who appeared in the corner said in a calm way.
Naruto chuckled a little. "I was just remembering,..." he began "Do you remember when you showed that form for the first time?"
He just laughed, " I sure do."
Naruto went inside his mind after he had gotten out of the hospital from the injuries he had from fighting Sasuke.
"Hey fox!" Naruto shouted at the waterway that was in front of him.
"Uzumaki, What are you doing in my domain?" The giant demon fox asked.
"Hey you remember this is my body you're staying in Kyuubi!" Naruto said "I just wanted to thank you for the great fight we had with Sasuke."
The gigantic fox couldn't help but chuckle. "Since Arashi broke the seal you have indeed become more stronger, but you couldn't have gotten that way without me." Kyuubi said.
Arashi had in fact unsealed the fox's cage when he felt that Kyuubi was no longer a threat. But nevertheless, The Death god Seal was still so powerful that Kyuubi could not be apart from Naruto.
"What, you saying I'm weak?" Naruto said smiling at the fox.
"That smile..." Kyuubi started "You remind me much of your father, Naruto" He said "When you're father sealed me inside you, he had that same smile. ... Even back when your father sealed me, I couldn't get that smile out of my mind. It had made me angry at first, but after awhile... It mad me feel... calm... collected..."
"Really?" Naruto asked
"Yes... so calm, it makes me want to..." Kyuubi disappeared from Naruto's eyes. The fox was gone from the cage where he stayed.
"Huh? Kyuubi? Kyuubi?!" Naruto shouted
"Easy Uzumaki, I'm still here" A voice Naruto wasn't familiar with said.
In the depths of the Kyuubi's cage came out a man with long Red-hair. His eyes were a frightening yellow and had whisker marks that resembled Naruto's. He had on a long black coat that covered his legs. His eyes had black linings around them.
"Wh-Who are you?" Naruto asked
"It's me... Kyuubi" he said in a cocky voice as a smirk crossed his face.
"K-Kyuubi?" Naruto said in disbelief. "But... how did..."
Kyuubi put his hand up. "This is my human form." He said "Each of the nine demons has his or her demon form, then it's Human form. Usually demons won't try and destroy villages, some try to live with them and become an equal. But... it's no use now that people can sense our presence. It's mostly just for show nowadays." he explained "And now I'm in my human form, I can do this." Kyuubi said as he disappeared.
"Huh? Kyuubi? Where'd you go now?" Naruto asked
"Hey Naruto, come on out of there." Kyuubi said
"Kyuubi? Where are you Dammit!?" Naruto shouted
"Come on out and you'll see." Kyuubi said
Naruto didn't know what he meant by out. 'The only place I'm in right now, is...' Naruto thought for a moment 'he couldn't mean...'
Naruto came out of the trance he takes when he talks to the fox. He was inside his room at the Uzumaki compound. In the corner of the room was the Kyuubi in his human form.
"How are you out here?" Naruto asked bewildered
Kyuubi just chuckled "Well, If I was to come out in my demon form, I would get hurt by the seal because you and me would be apart necessarily. But since I am in my human form, I'm not really away from you, I'm standing next to you." he explained
"This just got weird." Naruto said trying to grasp the situation.
"That sure was weird for a while" Naruto said to Kyuubi
"Well, you should feel lucky, back then, I would have killed you, But now it's like we're best buds you and I" Kyuubi said grabbing Naruto in a choke hold playfully.
"H-Hold on Kyu, There's another reason I called you." Naruto said trying to loosen his grab
"What's on your mind Kit?" Kyuubi asked Naruto
"You know about the dreams I've been having?" he asked "...The ones about Hinata"
"Oh... Well Naruto, It's perfectly natural to think about you're girlfriend being screwed by a tentacle monster." Kyuubi said
"NOT THAT DREAM!!!" Naruto yelled becoming red.
Kyuubi chuckled embarrassingly. "What dream then?"
'You know the one where's she's... She's dead." Naruto said as the dream swam back in his head
"Ah, That one, what about it?" Kyuubi said
"Well, do you know why I've been having such a horrible dream?" Naruto asked
Kyuubi thought for a moment 'it could be that Naruto has gained... that ability...'
"Hey! Kyuubi, are you listening?" Naruto said
"Hmm? Sorry Naruto, I think your having them because you feel a little over protective of Hinata, that's all." Kyuubi said
"Really that's all?" Naruto said relieved "Thanks Kyu,"
"Anytime Kit." Kyuubi said
Arashi walked in "Hey Naruto wake up, Hinata's waitin for ya." Arashi said as he caught sight of Kyuubi. "Hey Kyuubi, how goes it?" he said smiling
"Not too bad Arashi, you?" Kyuubi said
"Meh, regular Hokage stuff... boring as hell," Arashi said smiling
"Kyuubi! let's go!" Naruto said all dressed
"Right!" Kyuubi said as he went back into Naruto again.
Hinata was waiting outside "Hi Naruto-Chan," She said smiling. After the Chunin Exams, they have indeed become very close.
Naruto looked at her face. He saw that image flash threw his eyes again "H-hi Hinata-Chan" He said trying not to worry her.
Hinata caught the look quickly "Is... Something wrong Naruto?" she asked
"N-No, it's just..." Naruto couldn't finish. He could never bring himself to tell her such a horrible dream.
"Hey, Hinata-Chan!" Kyuubi said smiling
Hinata giggled, "Hello Kyu-Chan, you look nice today" she said
"Thanks Hinata, See Naruto I told you this cape was a good idea" Kyuubi said "Hey Hinata, D'ya wanna know what Naruto thinks about you when he's sleeping?"
Naruto turned red again knowing what Kyuubi was talking about "Anyway, it's time for breakfast" he said trying to change the subject as Kyuubi went back into Naruto again.
Hinata gave up and followed him.
Arashi was at top of the Hokage Mountain. He looked at the village below, reminiscing.
"Hey come on Kazu, Run!" Arashi said to his brother who was running as fast as he could from the third Hokage.
"You two get back here!" Sarutobi said running after the two twins.
"No way old man!" Kazuma said smiling back
"Can't catch us!" Arashi said smiling like his brother.
"We're the Shadow Clone Jutsu Brothers!" They said together as they made their clones.
Arashi looked fiercely at his brother "No way Kazu, you're not gonna win this time" he said as Kazuma was staring just as fiercely.
"You'll never win Arashi!" Kazuma said as he picked up his Chopsticks.
They both looked at their bowls "Ready, Set, GO!"
Miyuki was in the back cheering Arashi on "Come on Arashi! You can beat him this time!"
Arashi took the second bowl right after Kazuma did with his. On their fifth bowls it all came down to the noodles at the bottom of the bowl.
Arashi slammed his bowl down "Done!"
Kazuma's bowl clanged right after Arashi's "Damn! Oh well," he said, " you won fair and square"
Arashi stood up expecting his prize from Kazuma, but Kazuma ran off " Doesn't mean I'm gonna give you my Ramen Money!"
"Get back here Kazuma!" Arashi said as he chased after him.
Arashi and Kazuma were standing side by side staring at Jiraiya "I'm Arashi!" Arashi said smiling.
"Stop lying Kazu, I'm Arashi!" Kazuma said smiling as well.
"You're Kazu, I'm Arashi!" Arashi said
"Will you two stop messing around?!" Jiraiya said
It was a dark night; 6 years have past since they were Genin.
"Why Kazu? Why are you leaving?" Arashi asked Kazuma who was packed
"This village is weak Arashi. If you follow its ways, than you are weak too." Kazuma said coldly
"Kazu... don't leave you idiot!" Arashi said holding back tears "You don't have to do this Kazuma!"
Kazuma laughed coldly at his brother's response. He appeared behind his brother and hit his nerve that made him fall to the floor fainted. "That name means nothing to me Arashi."
Those memories plagued Arashi mind. That he could do nothing for his brother.
Sarutobi was behind him.
"Have you felt it Arashi?" Sarutobi asked
"Yeah, something just doesn't feel right." Arashi said, "it feels like... we'll be attacked"
"So, it wasn't just me," Sarutobi said, "Maybe we should take evasive action?"
Arashi smiled "yeah! I have a feeling this one's gonna be tough!"
"Still, I can't shake that feeling... that it's him"
Sasuke was on top of his house with Sakura. Sasuke shook,
"What's wrong Sasuke?" Sakura asked
"Dunno, it just seems like... something is coming" he said
Sakura looked at his hurt face "It's... Itachi isn't it?" she asked
Sasuke was a little surprised at first. "Y-yeah, it feels like... he's close..."
"I've felt it too. It feels... cold and dark," Sakura said shivering.
"It's... how I felt that night," Sasuke said remembering the day when Itachi left.
"I think we should tell Arashi." Sakura said, "he probably can feel it too." they both left to the Hokage tower.
Naruto was eating with Hinata at Ichiraku.
Hinata couldn't help laughing.
"What's so funny Hinata." Naruto said smiling.
Hinata smiled at him. "You forgot what today is didn't you?" Hinata said
"Uhh... is it... our anniversary?" Naruto guessed
Hinata laughed "no..."
"Uhh... Hiashi's birthday?" Naruto guessed again
"No"
"...Take your monkey to work day?" Naruto guessed jokingly
"No... Come on Naruto-Chan!" Hinata said
"Uhh... I give up what is so special about today." Naruto said
"You know, I know a lot of people who forget some things, but I've never met someone who forgot there own birthday!" Hinata said
Naruto looked at her. He had no idea it was that day again. "Oops, guess I forgot." he said rubbing the back of his head
"How can you forget you're own birthday Naruto?" Hinata asked
"Well... I never really had any reason to celebrate it. The only one who got me a gift was Iruka-Sensei" Naruto said
"Well..." Hinata said reaching into her pocket
Naruto was looking at her when Arashi's voice rang in his head "Naruto! Come to Hokage tower quickly!" Naruto got up. "I'm sorry Hinata we'll celebrate tonight I gotta go see my dad!"
Hinata put the item back in her pocket "a-alright" she said looking down.
Naruto was already out of Ichiraku. Hinata ran outside as well "Naruto-Chan! Happy Birth..." but Naruto had already used the yellow flash.
Naruto showed up on Hokage Mountain in a yellow flash. "I'm here what's up?" He asked
Arashi turned around "Naruto, I need you to gather as many Chunin as you can." he said
"why? What's wrong?" Naruto asked
Arashi looked at the village "we're gonna be attacked"
Naruto looked surprised "by who dad?"
Arashi didn't answer.
"Right Chunin!" Naruto said as he disappeared
Arashi didn't move. "It is you isn't it."
Behind him Sasuke and Sakura came running "Arashi!" Sakura said, "We have some news! It's Sasuke's--"
Arashi put his hand up to stop Sakura "it's Itachi..., isn't it Sasuke?"
Sasuke looked surprised. "Yeah, I can feel his presence. We both can." he said looking at Sakura.
"Find Naruto, he's gathering Chunin as we speak." Arashi said.
"Yes sir." they both said as they went on a Naruto hunt.
Naruto searched the village for people he recognized. He had already got Shikamaru, Choji, Ino, Lee, Tenten, Neji, Shino, and Kiba, but he couldn't find his team or Hinata.
"So what's going on Naruto?" Shikamaru asked
Naruto was quiet at first "my dad says we'll be attacked today, I'm supposed to gather as many people as I can." Naruto said
"I see, who's attacking?" Choji asked chowing down on his bag of chips.
"Even I don't know Choji, my dad wouldn't tell me." Naruto said "but I got a feeling it's gonna be like when the sound attacked."
"Naruto!" Ino said pointing ahead.
Naruto looked and saw Sasuke and Sakura. "Sasuke! Sakura!" they both looked at Naruto as he came with everyone. "Listen, my dad thinks--"
"--We know already Naruto" Sasuke said
"Hey, have you guys seen Hinata-Chan?" Naruto asked
"No, we thought she was with you." Sakura said
"No, I can't find her anywhere" Naruto said worrying about the dream he had.
"We'll find her" Sasuke said "but for now, let's go back to Arashi."
"You guy's go on ahead, I'll keep looking." Naruto said
Everyone agreed and went to Hokage Mountain without Naruto.
Naruto was worried he had been looking for about an hour now and still no Hinata.
"Where could she be? I've looked everywhere." Naruto said as he looked around Ichiraku
"Welcome Naruto. D'ya want a bowl?" Ayame asked as he came in.
"Not right now Ayame. Listen, did Hinata-Chan tell you where she would be going after she left this morning?" Naruto asked
"Mmm... I think she said she was going to train today. She said she was going to train near the monument today." Ayame said
"Really? Thanks Ayame!" Naruto said as he hurried to the monument for the Ninja's who died in action.
Hinata was training hard with her Byakugan. Naruto was rushing over quickly.
"Hinata-Chan!" Naruto yelled as he caught his breath.
"Naruto?" Hinata said looking behind her.
Naruto rushed over and hugged her tightly. "Naruto-Chan, what's wrong?" Hinata asked as he let his grip on her go.
"Sorry, I... was just... anyway, my dad needs us at Hokage Mountain, he thinks someone is going to attack the village." Naruto said explaining.
"let's go then" Hinata said
"Hold on to me Hinata" Naruto said. Hinata grabbed Naruto as he and her disappeared from the Monument.
Everyone was already on Hokage Mountain as Naruto and Hinata arrived.
"It's almost time" Kakashi said from behind them.
"Kakashi sensei!" Naruto said
Sasuke was the only one who didn't greet Naruto and Hinata "Hey, something's been bothering me." he said
"What Sasuke?" Arashi asked
"What is that?" Sasuke said as he pointed to a white figure in the sky.
Arashi looked at it. It looked as it dropped something. "Get down!" Arashi acted quickly. "Ninja art: Giant Shield!" he said as a giant yellow shield appeared over Konoha.
The little white figure that it dropped exploded. The shield protected the entire town from the blast.
Everyone took cover from the blast.
"Alright... It's begun. Neji?" Arashi said
"Yes sir?" Neji said standing forward
"You, Kiba, Shino, and your team go find that white thing." Arashi said
"Right!" Neji said disappearing from where he was with his team.
" Sasuke, Sakura, you support the North Gate."
"Right!" Sasuke said as they disappeared
"Shikamaru, you and you're team will take the west gate."
"Yes sir." Shikamaru said
"Kakashi, you will support the east."
"Yes Sensei." Kakashi said as he disappeared
"What about us Dad?" Naruto asked
Arashi just smiled "you two will come with me to the South gate" he smile faded "…there's someone there"
"Who Arashi" Hinata asked
Arashi looked down at Hinata and chuckled lightly "just my guess Hinata. Let's go!"
They all disappeared.
Neji took his team and Kiba and Shino through the woods.
"So where did it go?" Kiba asked
"It looks like it went towards the forest." Neji said following it with his Byakugan.
"it doesn't look like it's going to initiate another attack." Shino said
Akamaru was whimpering as they got closer and closer to the white figure.
Kiba noticed this quickly. "What's wrong boy?" he asked
Akamaru barked at Kiba "... hmm really? I don't smell anyone else."
"What is it?" Lee asked
"Akamaru says he smells someone else in the forest... A powerful person." Kiba said "But I can't smell them for some reason."
"It's pretty weird." Tenten said, "Usually you can smell just as well as Akamaru can."
"Yeah, but It's not precisely like a dog's scent." Kiba said
"It's probably nothing" Neji said
Kiba looked up at Neji growling, "Are you saying Akamaru is wrong?"
"That's not what I'm saying" Neji said still looking forward "I'm saying that it's nothing to worry about right now. The main priority is to find that bird."
Just then Kiba was struck down by something. Kiba was pinned to the tree and coughed up blood.
Everyone looked back and saw Kiba being forced down by what looked like a bone.
"Kiba!"
Kiba looked like he was fatally wounded. Everyone looked around to find the Assailant.
"My, My." Someone said hidden in the forest "That wasn't too hard"
Everyone turned to the sound of the voice. Two people came out of the forests hidden interior.
One looked as though he had not gotten much sun. The other had four extra limbs.
"Is that the best the leaf has to offer?" The one on the left said.
"Just as Lord Orochimaru said, it's a village of weaklings." The other said
"Orochimaru? Who are these guys?" Neji thought
"We're being rude don't cha think Kimimaro?" The spider like man said to his comrade.
"You are right. Our prey should know the names of they're hunters." He said, "My name is Kimimaro"
"And I am Kidomaru" The spider like one said
"I don't care if your names are Tweedle-dee and Tweedle-dum! You're going to die for harming my comrade." Shino said surrounding himself with his insects.
"Tell me one thing." Kidomaru said, "You're a Aburame Ain't cha?"
"It's no business of yours. You are already dead." Shino said stepping in front of Kiba as to protect him from further harm.
"I'll take the Spider-man wanna-be" Neji said activating his Byakugan.
"I'll help Shino with the pale one." Lee said
"I'll help you Neji" Tenten said
"No Tenten" Neji said quickly "You stay behind and protect Kiba and Akamaru."
"Right" She said looking disappointed.
Kimimaro didn't waste time by shooting another projectile towards Lee.
Shino caught it in mid air with his bugs.
"Not... here" Shino said leading Kimimaro and Lee to an open field.
While Neji stood his ground against Kidomaru. "So you and you're girlfriend are gonna beat me?"
"Don't underestimate me." Neji said "And certainly don't underestimate Tenten."
"Neji..." Tenten said touched by the comment.
"Heh! You think you are going to defeat me you have another thing coming!" Kidomaru said as he spit his web toward Neji. Neji cut the web so easily it was like tissue.
Kidomaru had a surprised expression on his face. "Nicely done kid!" he said in a sarcastic way.
Neji tried to go after Kidomaru but he was too fast. Kidomaru tried his web again. Neji scoffed at his obvious move. Neji used his kunai to cut it again. But the web went around Neji and wrapped itself around him.
"What in the...?" Neji said he was sure he cut the web.
"Heheheh, surprised?" Kidomaru said as his skin turned a blood like red, and marks started to form. "The web is infused with my Chakra so it can be reattached. And now you have no chance now that I have my second stage."
"D-Dammit!" Neji said as the web started to encase his head.
"Neji!!!" Tenten yelled as Neji's head was now covered in the strange web.
'D-damn! I don't want it to end like this.' Neji thought.
Outside the web Tenten tried to open the cocoon that held Neji with her weapons. "Open! Open! Open!" She said as she fell to the floor.
"Heh! It's no use girl! Your boyfriend is probably dead by now!" He said laughing at her. 'This should be fun' Kidomaru thought as he looked at Tenten. He started to go after her.
Neji didn't know what to do. The web was as hard as steal. 'This web is filled with Chakra.' Neji thought. Neji heard Tenten's blood curdling scream outside. 'ghh, Tenten's in trouble. I have to get out there quickly' Neji concentrated hard thinking what he was going to do.
'Maybe...' Neji activated his Byakugan. He smirked 'just as I thought' Neji strategically hit the web in specific spots.
Tenten was outside trying to fend off the red monster that was chasing her. but she stayed right near Kiba so she could protect him as well, Tenten fell to the floor and started crying as Kidomaru rushed to feel the perverse rush of killing her. "Hey! Asshole!" Neji said as both Tenten's and Kidomaru's head turned toward the cocoon.
The cocoon split in two as Neji came out, his Chakra was visible around him. "You made Tenten cry."
Kidomaru took a step back.
"You're gonna die for that." Neji went straight for him and executed his attack. "8 Trigrams 2 palms." Neji hit him in hi stomach twice "four palms!" He hit him twice in each shoulder. "8 palms!" he hit him four times in each leg. "16 palms!, 32 Palms!," He hit him in each of his arms many times. "8 Trigrams 64 Palms!" he hit him in each of his ribs many times.
"Now for the Hyuga style secret technique. 8 Trigrams 128 palms!!!" Neji hit a barrage of attacks into his heart.
After this, Kidomaru was no more. He fell from the limb he was on into the forest below.
Neji deactivated his Byakugan. He went next to Tenten. "Are you alright Tenten?" he asked as he wiped her tear from her eye.
"Y-yeah, It's just... I thought you were gone.," she said as she hugged him and cried on his shoulder.
Neji was to be honest, a little stunned. But nonetheless he hugged her back. "It's... It's alright Tenten."
They both heard laughing form behind them. They turned to see who it was it was Kiba. "Hahahah! I knew you two had something!" he said as he stood up. Akamaru stood up as well and jumped back into Kiba's jacket. "Good boy! You were very convincing." he said to Akamaru.
"You were okay this whole time?" Tenten asked
"Yep and I Have got it all on tape!" Kiba said holding a camera.
"Why didn't you help me? That guy looked like he was about to rape then kill me!" Tenten said
"As a matter of fact, I was just about to get up when he came in for that last blow, but I heard Neji, and I knew you'd be okay." Kiba said smiling, rubbing the back of his head
They were both staring at the bone that was lodged in his heart. "Oh!" Kiba said not missing a beat. He took out the bone and gave it to Akamaru. The tip had been shattered. "You wouldn't believe what dog food does to you're bones.
"If you value your life Kiba you'll give me that camera." Neji said fiercely.
"Heheh! Can't argue with that!" Kiba said throwing the camera towards him.
"Now let's go help Shino and Lee." Neji said crushing the camera.
Tenten and Neji went on. Kiba put the Memory stick that held the recording in his pocket. 'Wait till Ino gets a hold of this'
Shino and Lee made it to an opening in the forest. Kimimaro wasn't far behind.
"Is this where you want to die?" Kimimaro asked in a cold voice.
"No..." Shino said
"Then why did you take me out here?" Kimimaro asked
"I didn't want Tenten to see what I'm going to do to you." Shino said darkly. "Plus there's enough space for your grave." Shino took his glasses off.
What Kimimaro and Lee saw was a little surprising. Shino's eyes were Blood red. It looked like a fly's eye instead of human. Insects started coming out of his mouth.
"Sh-shino..." Lee said as he looked at his eyes.
"Did you think I wore these for a fashion statement?" Shino said "I want you to stay out Lee." he said handing him his glasses.
"...But... Shino-" Lee started
"- Don't make me repeat myself Lee." Shino said as he looked at the pale looking boy on the other side of the field.
Lee could feel the killing intent Shino had. "R-Right!" Lee said as he backed off.
Kimimaro was waiting rather patiently. "Are you ready to die?"
"Are you?" Shino said
Kimimaro shot many of his bones at Shino. Shino didn't even move. His bugs landed on the bone. The bone was no more. The insects went straight for Kimimaro. Kimimaro activated his second stage of his curse mark. Bones were protruding through his skin.
'I can't believe this kid is so strong. I have no choice but to do it so early.' Kimimaro thought.
"It will not help you" Shino said
Kimimaro was confused. But he didn't give it any mind. He Shot his extremely huge bones at Shino.
This time Shino dodged them.
"What's wrong? Have you're insects left you?" Kimimaro said.
"No, They're just doing they're job." Shino said
"What do you mea-" Kimimaro's eyes widened as he felt pain. He fell over in pain clutching his head "GYAAAHHH WHAT IS THIS?!!!"
His left leg splurged blood, then fell off. Kimimaro couldn't figure out what was going on. Then his left arm, then his right leg, then his Right arm, and finally as he let out a scream that the gods themselves would hear, his head.
Shino's bugs came out of his corpse as other insects digested what was left of Orochimaru's former follower.
Lee came out from the tree where he was and approached Shino.
"L-Lee," Shino said struggling "My glasses..." he said as he fell to his knee, his eyes closed.
Lee handed Shino his sunglasses. Shino put them on and got up.
"What was that?" Lee asked looking at the bugs that were feasting on the corpse disappear.
Shino was catching his breath. "Death insects. They only appear if I have my glasses off."
Lee looked at what was left of Kimimaro. "I never want to make you Mad." he said
"Most wise of you." Shino said.
Neji, Tenten, and Kiba appeared out of the woods.
"There you are!" Kiba said
Shino walked up to Kiba.
Kiba stepped back. "ghh! Wh-what's up Shino?"
hit him on his face sending him across the grass.
"Ow! What the hell?" Kiba said rubbing his face coming back.
"That's for making me think you were dead." Shino said
"Whatever, let's go back to finding that bird." Tenten said as everyone went back in the forest.
"What?!" Shizune exclaimed "But, Lady Tsunade, Why did Arashi do something as stupid as send Chunin after the Akatsuki?" she asked as Tsunade turned her chair around to look at her
"Dunno." She said as a smirk crossed her face "Maybe he just trusts those kids."
Shizune didn't want that for an answer " But he's putting them in danger! they haven't been Chunin long. And some are still Genin! Lord Hokage, you understand, right?" Shizune motioned over to Sarutobi who was sitting next to Tsunade.
Sarutobi smiled "Shizune, I know your concerned," Sarutobi started.
Shizune sighed, "Thank you for understanding Lord Hokage, I knew you'd-"
"-But don't be." Sarutobi finished. Shizune was taken back. "If Arashi trusts them Than I trust that they will not fail."
Shizune gave up. "But... Don't you think you should give them some extra help?"
"Oh, You don't have to worry about that Shizune. Arashi is getting some outside help." Tsunade said
"Do you think those kids are still following us Master Sasori un?" Deidara asked
"Don't count on it. They would have to go through those subordinates of Orochimaru first." the scorpion-like puppet said.
"You really think that highly of Orochimaru, un?" Deidara asked
"Heh! Not really, his subordinates are being fueled by a power boost. That curse mark of his, unlike us who need no power boost to take a Jinchuruki into our clutches." Sasori said
"That's right, we don't need it but it almost makes weaklings like them become almost as strong as us." Deidara argued
"They were just as strong as you?" Someone said from behind them.
They both turned around at the Hyuga whose eyes were as white as snow "Then this should be no problem."
