The Sannin Cells
Summary: What if the Sannin never split up? What if Orochimaru never turned bad? What if each of them took up a cell of children? What if one Sannin fell for one of their students…?

Chapter 8: Escort Mission Part I
Oki wearily made her way to the gates. She was still a bit freaked out by her dream the previous night. What the hell was that, anyway? And after she had prayed for her mother and slept there all night…Very odd, very odd. Apparently, she was the last to arrive. She looked at her group and gave a weary smile. "Hey, Guys, let's get going."
"You alright? I know about last night." Kakasha looked at her with worry. Oki nodded. "Yeah. I slept at the cemetery as I normally do so I woke up a bit late. Sorry." She slipped her hands into her pockets; was it just her, or was Orochimaru looking worried? Kakasha and Razi started to walk and Orochimaru immediately did as well, walking out of the gates and heading along the travel path they'd be going on.
Fortunately, Orochimaru knew where he was going. Oki stayed behind Kakasha and Razi, on her guard in the back so that attacks wouldn't hit from behind. She moved stiffly—leaning on a tombstone all night wasn't the best thing for one's back—as she kept her senses sharp. She waited, quite honestly, for something to happen.
Razi and Kakasha sat on their beds in the inn. Orochimaru and Oki had been stuck sharing a different room (thanks to Razi and Kasha voting as such), leaving the girls alone. Razi smirked. "Kakasha…I will bet 100 ryo that those two end up hating each other."
"And I bet 100 ryo that they'll fall in love."
"Deal."
Tsunade sat bolt upright in her bed. She looked at the window and quickly pulled on her shoes, running out in her pajamas. She could sense that chakra signature again…She went to the edge of the village, where it was, and it was gone…Again. She looked around and sighed. What was going on?!
Well, sorry. Writers' block. Also, another thing, school's coming up and I wanted to get this chapter out. I've had it stuck here for a day so I figured I'd send it out. Sorry.
