Chapter 3

The Retrieval.

Sarra and I waited for about ten minutes, and then we both saw the other teams start to arrive. "Ok, is everyone here?" I heard Tsunade ask. I looked around and saw Tsunade, Naruto, Yuka, Naraku, Neraku, Suki, Gaara and Ali. "Looks like it." I said to her. "Ok, let's get started!" Naruto said, almost yelling. "Shut up!" Sarra and I said at the same time. "We have a visitor." I said to everyone. "Well, who is it?" Naruto said getting impatient. "It is someone who thinks they are truly hiding from our eyes." I said starting to laugh a little. "Soooo?" I heard from Naraku. "Her name is Kiara Hatake." I said with a sigh. "I have heard of her. Isn't Kakashi Hatake, The Copy Cat Ninja, isn't he, her caretaker, or something along those lines?" Yuka asked. "That seems to be right." I said to her. "Now there are about five rooms. There should be two Akatsuki members per room." I said. "We can deal with them." I heard Naruto, Neraku, and Suki say simultaneously. "Then it's unanimous. We go in as a group, and when we encounter some Akatsuki, we leave two behind to fight the two Akatsuki members." I said starting to walk towards Amegakure. The others start to follow. When we get about halfway to Amegakure, I start to run, and so do the others. About ten minutes after running, we were at the Amegakure Gate. "Now let's split up, and if you find the Akatsuki base, radio it in." I said putting an earpiece in my ear, and I hand everyone else an earpiece. "You can come out now, Kiara." I said activating my Byakugan. Sarra activated her Byakugan. "How did you know I was… Never mind." She said seeing my Byakugan midway through her sentence. I yawned. "Stay here." I said sternly to Kiara. She sighed then she nodded. "Everyone else, split up!" I said jumping towards the northern area with Sarra. Naruto and Tsunade went south, Yuka and Naraku went eastward, Neraku and Suki went westward, and Gaara and Ali looked around the central area.

After about an hour, I heard Yuka radio in. "We found the base! I repeat: We found the base." Yuka said. "Got it!" Sarra, Tsunade, and Ali said simultaneously. When Sarra and I got there second to last. Just after we got there, Gaara and Jiraiya get there a few seconds Sarra and I got there. "Now is everyone here?" I asked. Looks like it, but our little visitor is here again." Sarra said, and then I sighed. "Get back out here, Kiara." I said looking at where she was. "Awww, why can't you let me stay hidden?" She asked me, with her arms crossed. "Because we might attack you, thinking your one of the enemy." I said. She sighed, and then I started to open the door. "Door one… Zetsu and Tobi." I said. "Who wants to fight first?" I asked looking around. "We will!" I heard coming straight from Ali. "Looks like Ali and Gaara fight in the first room, but both of you come back alive, you hear me?" I said. Ali rushes into the room, and Gaara follows her, but he is walking. The rest of us enter the room, watching Ali fight Zetsu, and Gaara fighting Tobi. Everyone except Ali and Gaara follow me. I open the second door without much noise. "Second room… Hidan and Kakuzu…" I said. "Who next?" I asked. "Us." I heard Neraku and Suki say. "Ok… but you have to come back alive… you have to promise me that." I said to them. "We promise." Both of them say. I see that Hidan and Kakuzu started to run toward us. "Fire Style: Misty Flames Dance Jutsu" I saw Neraku make the necessary handsigns, and then he blew out a mist of flammable gas. "Fire Style: Fire Ball Jutsu" Suki also made the necessary handsigns and she blew out a ball of fire, which ignited the mist. "Let's go!" I said, jumping through the wall of flame after Sarra. "Right" I heard come from behind me. I opened the third door to the third room. "Looks like its Itachi Uchiha, and Kisame Hoshigaki." I heard Sarra say. "It's us." We heard Naraku and Yuka say at the same time. "You two better stay alive, Ok?" I asked. "Ok." Naraku said. Sarra, Naruto, Tsunade, and I all go to the back of the room after Itachi, and Kisame engage in battle with Yuka and Naraku. Tsunade opened the door to the fourth room it seemed to be empty. When we entered there were two more Akatsuki. They were Sasori and Yuki Uchiha. "So we meet again…" I heard Yuki say. "Looks like it." I heard from my left. "Sarra, how do you know her?" I asked shocked that she encountered Yuki. "No time for that lets just get into the next room." She said starting to run towards the door. I started to follow her. Tsunade prevents Sasori from attacking Sarra and me. Sarra opens the last door. In the final room, there were three Akatsuki members. "Pein, Konan, and Deidara." I said. "Were out numbered, and even you won't be able to beat them without help Sarra." I said, looking at her. "I know." She said, clenching her right fist. At that moment we all see Deidara fly to the back of the room, and when he hit the wall, there was an extremely large dent. "What the…?!?!" Sarra and I said simultaneously. "How do you like that?" We heard, then Kiara came running in. "Why are you here, Kiara?" I said, looking at her. "I was spying, and I saw you two were out numbered." She said, running up to us. "What was that jutsu that used on Deidara?" Sarra asked, looking at Pein. "It was a projectile version of the Lightning Blade. It's my version." She said, getting into a fighting stance. Sarra and I both also get in a fighting stance. "Let's get started!!!" All three of us yelled. Deidara got up slowly, with a grunt. I saw Konan and Pein both make handsigns. Konan starts running towards Sarra, but Sarra jumps above her, then lands behind her. Pein starts to run towards me. I see Deidara making a clay figure. I make a handsign. "Water Style: Water Claw" I said as water formed around my right hand, and the water formed what could look like a claw. "Let's fight!" I said. I saw Kiara running toward Deidara. It seemed Deidara had finished the clay sculpture. The sculpture looked like a medium sized spider. I heard Pein running towards me. "Never divert your attention!" I heard Pein yell to me. I then felt a blunt pain. I heard Sarra grunt in pain several times. I also heard Kiara yell. "Art is… an EXPLOSION!" Deidara yelled, and then there was an explosion, in which she was sent flying out of the cloud of dust which was made by the explosion. "What?!?!" I said trying not to get hit by Pein. Deidara was lying on the ground, after the cloud of dust cleared. I got hit several more time by Pein. I slashed at Pein with the Water Claw, but he dodged. I deactivated the jutsu. "Let's do it, Sarra." I said jumping to help her. "Right." She said, making some handsigns. I also made some handsigns, mine were extremely similar except I had made two different handsigns. "Rokubi! Thunder Seal!" I yelled. "Shichibi! Earth Seal!" I heard Sarra yell. "Seal weaken!" Sarra and I yelled simultaneously.

After we weakened our seals, there was enormous amount of chakra coming from us. The chakra that was surrounding Sarra and I, it was visible. The chakra surrounding me was yellow, and the chakra was of the Lightning Element. Sarra's chakra was brown, and her chakra was of the Earth Element. I saw Deidara get up slowly, and Pein was in front of him, unknowingly. "Lightning Casket." I said as some lightning shot through the roof and hit Deidara. "Thunder Funeral!" I said as the lightning disappeared, and then there was no trace of him, except for a piece of his cloak. I saw Sarra start to run toward Pein. "Sarra! NO!!!" I said trying to stop her. I saw Pein activate a Kekki Genkai. "This is my Kekki Genkai. The Rennigan." I heard him say. Then somehow Pein split from being one to being four of him. "Sarra, STOP!!!" I yelled to her, but she didn't stop. I was watching Pein, and when I saw Konan appear near me, I tried to defend myself, but I wasn't fast enough. When Konan stabbed me in the stomach with a Kunai Knife, I heard a scream. "Sarra!!!" I said and when I looked her way, I saw her get launched through the room where Hinata and Neji were being held in. "Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu!" I said making about nine hundred ninety-nine shadow clones. I ran toward the room where Hinata and Neji were. I enter the room and I see Sarra, she is bleeding horribly. I pick up Sarra, and I have some of my shadow clones untie Hinata and Neji. "Thanks." Neji said coldly. "T-thanks b-big brother." Hinata said nervously. "I need to get everybody else, and get out of here." I said to Neji. "Right." He said leaving the compound with Hinata. I went to the side of the room where Pein, Deidara, and Konan were. I had one of my shadow clones pick up Kiara. All of my shadow clones go through the fourth room. "Naruto, Tsunade… We need to go!!!" I said running through. "Right." Tsunade and Naruto say, also starting to run out of the base. "You're not going anywhere!" Yuki said. "Yes we are." I said to her. "Suki, Neraku, Naraku, Yuka, Ali, and Gaara, we need to get out of here!" I said radioing in to everyone else. "Right." Everybody said at once.

When I got to the first room, the doors shut. "Here I go." I said still running toward the doors. I start to form a ball of chakra in my left hand. "Rasengan!" I said, using the jutsu on the wall, which made the wall to be just about destroyed. "Naraku, you take Kiara, and we need to get away as fast as possible." I said handing Kiara to Naraku. When I handed her to Naraku, we all disappeared, and then we appeared in Konohagakure.
