Daichi--the mission
Day two--2:17am

I've been tossing and turning for hours now and all I can focus my attention on is Neji's voice. He keeps threatening me in his sleep.

Is he really asleep? Maybe he knows I'm awake and he's watching over Tenten. But why would I harm her?

Hn...this boy is more protective of her than I thought.

Let's see if I can fall asleep...

flashback

The Konoha gates opened for us, a simple family of three. Me, a tall man with auburn hair and a gentle smile on my face, and my wife, a petite woman with dark brown hair and her caring golden brown eyes starring at our most prized possession. In the her arms was an infant of about 7 months.

Our child started struggling as we started walking into the village. "Shhhh." My wife soothed. "Calm down sweetie."

We were greeted at the gate to a friendly grin from a man with spiky blond hair and common clothes on. We bowed to him out of respect. He was our new leader after all.

He brought them to his office and talked to us about our living situations. We would be placed in a decent sized apartment. But because we are runaways from Kumo, one of Konoha's enemies, we were to be put on probation. We couldn't leave the village and we were couldn't do missions or anything. We were to be normal citizens of the Leaf Village.

The elders didn't trust us at all. And I wouldn't either, naturally. We were huge enemies of the great Hyuuga clan. And they were our next door neighbors.

"Daichi...kill...blooood..." Okay, Neji was starting to scare me now. I've never heard someone talk in their sleep as much as this boy. And he's saying how he wants to kill me. I don't know what I should do...maybe do away with him before he kills me?

No. That wouldn't work...I don't think I could handle killing someone. Especially when someone else loves them so much...

flashback

"The Hokage's here Suzume!" I yelled to my wife "It'll be okay. All we have to do is last a little longer and then this'll all be over!"

She stood up weakly and gave me a reassuring smile. The thumps from the giant frog were getting nearer and nearer. As of now, there was only me and Suzume fighting. Everyone else had backed off or died. There was no way I was going to give up at this point. There would be no point in me fighting at all if I gave up.

"I got one last trap set, stand back Daichi! It's a big one!" Suzume yelled at me and I followed her orders. She wasn't too good at setting traps, but the ones she knew how to set up were usually big and caused massive explosions. I watched her clip a wire with a kunai and just a split second later there was a huge explosion at the feet of the Kyuubi. It fell to the ground and let out a painful screech. Débris flew every which way, and dust clouded our vision.

"Yeaaa, I'm good." She joked.

I looked up at the Hokage. He was meditating and the Kyuubi was starting to head right for him. "Suzume, stay here!" I yelled as I started to run to where the giant frog stood.

"Daichi! Stop! You're going to kill yourself!" She yelled back, but it was too late. I already found myself standing right in front of the Hokage in a defense stance.

I knew what I had to do, protect my home, my leader, my wife, my daughter. There is no way I am going to go down without a fight.

The Kyuubi drew nearer and I preformed a few hand seals. The clouds darkened in the night sky and thunder started to roar. Lighting fell from the sky and struck the 9 tailed fox. It stopped its charge towards the Hokage and let out a scream of pain. What I didn't notice was, standing behind the Kyuubi, was my wife standing on raised earth. She had attacked the demon fox from behind.

The Kyuubi's tails were flying around at threatening speeds and its teeth were bared. Saying it was pissed off would be an understatement.

One more attack on the monster and then maybe the Hokage will be done meditating. Suzume knew what I was thinking. At the same time we both made our hand seals for another attack. I called forth another round of thunder to fall from the sky and it struck the head of the Kyuubi. But for some reason my wifes attack wasn't there. The ground didn't melt and suck the demon fox into it.

I frantically looked to the back of the Kyuubi and saw that my wife had been knocked to the ground by one of the Kyuubi's swinging tails. I was terrified at the sight of my wifes broken body laying on the ground in a twisted mess.

Tears wet my cheeks as I prepared for another attack. The monster had regained his composure and raised its paw to strike me. I jumped into the air to evade the attack but I was still struck by a lighting fast reflex attack.

My vision went black.

end flashback

I quickly opened my eyes and drew a sharp breath. It seemed as if I was holding my breath for eternity. I wiped away the cold sweat that lay on my forehead. It had been quite a while since I last had that dream. And it was much more real to me this time.

I have got to tell her, but not yet.

Not yet.
