AN: I'm so sorry this chapter took so long I've busy since school is just around the corner :'(, anyway I think you've waited long enough so here's the next chapter.
It was 2:00 and the whole of Rookie 9 (minus Sakura of course), Gai's team and the sand siblings were all sat in the Living room drinking tea and eating the delicious biscuits Hinata had made.
"So Naruto you going to stuff your face all day or tell us what the plan is." Garaa asked.
"Oh right. He-he. The Plan that I came up with is to get information on Sai and what he's really up to and then when we get the information we: a) kill him or b) tell Sakura and have her kill him.I call it Operation: get Sai!" Naruto told the group.
"That was actually an ok idea up to the part where you said tell Sakura. We can't do that it would probably brake her heart." Ino said and everyone nodded their heads to show they agreed.
"Well fine we'll go with a, that is unless someone has a better idea" At this everyone looked towards Shikamaru. He sighed at the stares and began to speak.
"The idiot has a pretty good idea, I say we go with that. We'll need to split up and go different places for information. We'll need 1 person to ask Sakura about it, and that obviously can't be Naruto or Sasuke since Sakura knows Naruto hates him and Sasuke would probably want to kill him since she's going out with him. It also has to be someone with easy access to the Hokage. Any offers?" Shikamaru asked.
"I will, I've got a meeting with her this after noon anyway." Garaa told them. Everyone nodded and once again looked towards Shikamaru.
"Somebody else can ask Sai some things, maybe get him to spill his plan. I suggest Sasuke since he's just come back, Naruto can introduce them and Sasuke asks questions, it will be like it's just common interest." Both Naruto and Sasuke nodded. "Next we will need people to sneak into his house and see if there is anything lying around that could tell us any troublesome things about him."
"We'll do that, with Lee were shore not to get caught." Tenten told them. "That is if you two are up to it." Tenten asked her team. Neji nodded while Lee started some speech about how youth will help them.
"We will also need someone to go to Kohona library and see if there is any information about him o his clan in there, who knows his family might have been important at one time and that's why he wants to be a troublesome Hokage." Shikamaru told them.
"Me ad Kankuro (sp??) will do that. After all it shouldn't be too hard." Temari told them.
"Ok that leaves my group with following him around to check if he goes anywhere suspicious." Shikamaru said "This is so troublesome."
"What about my team" Kiba asked
"For now you have nothing to do but you will later on." Shikamaru told them.
"ok, fine by me, means I can just relax"
"Lets get to work then, we'll have another meeting the day after tomorrow to see if anyone found anything. Right lets set to work." Naruto shouted.
(With Garaa)
Garaa knocked on the door of the Hokage's office and awaited a reply.
"Enter" He heard Sakura say from the other side and he did as told. "oh it's you. Welcome Kazekage (sp?) I hope you haven't had any trouble while you've been here."
"I told you to call me Garaa, Sakura." Garaa told her as he sat down opposite her.
"Of course Garaa-san. I wasn't expecting you so early." Sakura told him "The meeting isn't for another 20 minutes."
"I was bored so I thought I'd come early and catch up, it's been a while since we last saw each other." Garaa told her.
"It sure has. So how have you been?" Sakura asked politely
"Fine thankyou Sakura. I saw Sasuke earlier, he sure has changed" Garaa watched as a faint blush crossed Sakura's face. 'so she does still like him then' he thought.
"Ye, he did change a lot while he was away." Sakura replied.
"How long has he been back?" Garaa asked.
"He got back yesterday morning." Sakura told him.
"So what's his punishment for his betrayal?"
"Hasn't got one yet, more than likely death, but if he's done what he says he's done he might be let off and given a different punishment." Sakura told him.
"Ah you mean killing Orochimaru and the two Akastuki?"
"Yes how did you know." Sakura's eyes were wide open.
"We got word of the events when they happened, he killed Orochimaru around 3 years ago and the Akastuki a year ago. I thought you would have known about it by now. We buried the Akastuki's bodies and Orochmaru's since he's an old member, with the rest of the group. As for Kabuto and the sound, we burned them along with the village" Garaa told her.
"Suppose I'll have to bring back my ANBU then and tell the council." Sakura told him. She actually looked relieved and if you looked very closely you could even see a small smile.
"You're happy he's telling the truth aren't you?" Garaa asked
"No, it means he'll probably live and I think he deserves death." Sakura said while forcing the small smile off her lips.
"Don't lie to me Sakura, we've been friends long enough for me to see when your lying to me." Garaa told her.
"Fine I am happy, but it doesn't mean a thing." Sakura said.
"Ok I'll believe you for now. So tell me has the number one bachelorette got herself a boyfriend yet?" Garaa asked.
"Well actually I do. What about you found yourself a girlfriend?" Sakura mocked.
"Not yet. Tell me a bit about your boyfriend then Sakura." Garaa told her. "After all I have to make sure he's good enough for you"
"Why do you have to do that? It's not like you have a responsibility over me" Sakura told him
"Ah but your like a sister to me and you know how protective I am of my family." Garaa told her.
"Don't remind me" Sakura grimaced as flashbacks of what happened to Temari's last boyfriend went before her eyes. " You nearly killed Temari's last boyfriend, that is after making sure he never has children again"
"At least I did let him live, I should have killed him after cheating on Temari. Anyway stop hanging the subject tell me about this Boyfriend." Garaa told her.
"Well his names Sai, he's an ANBU, his special technique is drawing, and that's all I can be bothered telling you" Sakura stuck out her tongue at Garaa and giggled at the face Garaa was doing. "That's not a nice look on you Garaa"
"Well I wouldn't have this look if someone told me more." Garaa told her.
"There's nothing more to say. That's all there is to him." Sakura told him.
"What about his family?" Garaa asked.
"I know nothing about his family, except he had a brother, at least sort of, they weren't blood related but they still saw each other as brothers. He died though." Sakura told him.
"Ah" Garaa spoke.
"I told you not to say that word when you spoke to me." Sakura told him.
"Ah" Garaa mocked. Sakura huffed and turned away from him.
After the small catch-up the two Leaders started their meeting which in the words of Shikamaru is way to Troublesome and boring to write down.
(With Sasuke and Naruto)
The two were walking down the street looking for Sai, At least Naruto was since Sasuke had no idea what he looked like. All of a sudden Naruto shouted out.
"Hey Sai, come here a sec I got someone I want you to meet." A guy in front with Black hair and onyx eyes. He looked rather like Sasuke.
"What do you want dickless wonder." Sai asked. Naruto went to punch him but Sasuke grabbed him back and whispered something to him. Whatever he said had made him calm down.
"I wanted you to meet my best-friend…" Naruto was interrupted by Sai.
"Sasuke Uchiha. Glad to finally meet the guy that broke MY Sakura-Chan's heart" Sai purposely expressed the my to annoy Naruto, not knowing that he hurt Sasuke more than he could ever hurt Naruto.
"I have my Hinata-Chan so why would I care that you and Sakura are together, apart from the fact that she deserves better" Naruto told him a scowl clearly on his face.
"Excuse the dobe, he doesn't know anything. Sai wasn't it?" Sasuke asked.
"Ye, chicken-butt" Sai smugly replied
"How long have you and Sakura been an item?" Sasuke asked ignoring the nickname given to him.
"About three weeks now" Sai told him. "Why do you want to know?"
"Just wondering, I actually thought nobody would ever like her, at least not enough to ask her out, and stay an item for more than a day." Sasuke told him.
"Well I'm different form anybody else and Pinky grows on you." Sai told him.
"Why do you like her?" Sasuke asked.
"She's hot for one, and her and me have been friends since I was replaced with you on team 7, love just sort of bloomed." Sai replied.
"ok, so are you in ANBU?" Sasuke asked
"Ye, along side dickless here" Sai replied while pointing at Naruto and chuckling at his joke.
"What's your technique?"
"I draw pictures and bring them alive." Sai told him
"Cool technique. Why did you move here in the first place anyway." Sasuke replied.
"Kohona's a nice place, why not. Better than my home at least anyway." Sai lied.
"Hey Teme we gotta go, come on." Sasuke nodded and walked of with Naruto.
"I have to admit even though I hate the guy I love his nickname for you." Sasuke chuckled.
"Shut up teme." Nauto told him, both walked back home.
(With Gai's team)
"Lee you take lookout, if he comes get us as fast as you can." Neji told Lee.
"The power of Youth will not let us down." Lee told him as Tenten and Neji walked into the house.
"You take upstairs I'll take down." Neji told Tenten, he gave her a kiss and walked towards the kitchen, as Tenten went upstairs. Both searched the house, top to bottom, and had no luck so far. Neji finished the bottom floor and went up to help Tenten.
"Hey Tenten, found anything?" Neji asked.
"no, I've just got this room to look in but it's got some sort of seal on it." Tenten told him.
"Bykuugan (SP?)" Neji activated his Bykuugan and looked at the door. "I can't brake it, only Sai can" Neji told her.
"That'll be where anything is if there is anything then. We need to get in somehow." Tenten told him. Neji deactivated his Bykuugan.
"We'll get Shino to send one of his bugs, they should be able to get in, for now though lets just go." Neji told her. She nodded and both left the house, got Lee and left to train.
(With Temari and Kankuro)
"Right Kankuro you look through the records and I'll look through the computer."
"Why do I get the hard job." Kankuro wined.
"Because I said you do and if you care about Saku then you'll go and check them records NOW!" Temari shouted at him.
"shhhhhh!" everyone in the Library said to Temari.
"Sorry" Temari apologized.
She went to the computer and began to search for anything on Sai or his Family and Kankuro stormed off to search the records while mimicking Temari. Half an hour passed and all Kankuro or Temari could find is the village he came from, and his position in ANBU. Nothing about his family was on the records at all, so both the siblings decided to just give up. (AN: sorry I had no idea what to write for these two, after all the Library isn't the most exciting place in the world)
(With Anko's (is that right?) Team)
Shikamaru and his team had been following Sai all day and still they had nothing, he didn't do anything suspicious at all. First he had gone to see Sakura, then he had his Chat with Sasuke and Naruto, after hat he went home and had a nap and he was still doing that now.
"Shika , I'm soooooooo bored, can't you make him do something." Ino whined.
"Troublesome women sure I'll just waltz over to him and tell him that we've been following him all day and want him to just tell us what his plan is." Shikamaru sarcastically replied. Ino stick her tongue out at him and looked back at Sai.
Sai had just woke up and opened some little black book he carried with him. He wrote something down and went downstairs to eat with the book in hand.
"That's like the 5th time he's wrote in that book, We need to get it off him somehow." Shikamaru told them.
"How are we suppose to do that if he carries it around with him all the time?" Ino asked.
"We'll have to get sum1 very quiet to sneak in his room at night and grab it off him without waking him up." Shikamaru told them.
"I know, Hinata, she's probably the best at the sneaking thing. She'll get it no problem." Ino told the two boys with her.
"I… agree with… Ino… on… this one" Chouji told them between munches of his chips. "She… even got… a packet of… Chips of me… once" He frowned at that and hugged his bag of chips while mumbling something to them.
"Sorted then, we'll just get Hinata to get it. I suggest a few nights away though, after that nap he'll be on full alert at night." Shikamaru told them. We'll tell her at the meeting.
The next day Gai's team got Shino to look in the room In Sai's house with his bugs, all that was in there was pictures, mostly of his brother, with a few of them being of Sakura while she does her work. Everyone else had no look with there part, they couldn't find anymore information at all and they all waited for the meeting the next day anxiously hoping someone else found something.
An: that's chapter 6 finally over, I made it extra long to repay you all for the wait you've had. All I know Garaa was way OOC, but it was only with Sakura and he did say she was like a sister. Also I've been told Sasuke is OTT OOC, sorry about that it's just he needs to be for this story. Also please give me idea's of what you want Sasuke's punishment to be. The person's who idea it is will have special thanks posted in the chapter of the punishment, don't worry I wouldn't take credit for somebody else's work. Cya next chapter.
