Kurenai struggled as she hopped from tree branch to tree branch trying to outrun the men pursuing her. Just a few hours ago Kurenai had been sent out with another Jonin to check on a rogue group that had been terrorizing Tea country, but when they arrived her supposed teammate knocked her out and when she woke up she was injected with a drug that would shut down her motor skills. Kurenai had managed to escape and was now trying her best to get back to Konoha but she was already losing feeling in her arms and legs.
Taking another leap to land on another tree branch Kurenai could no longer support herself and fell to the ground bellow hitting it hard she looked around to see that the group after her was already in her line of vision. Three men landed infront of Kurenai and looked down at her "Look boys seems the bitch can't run any longer" one spoke while another kneeled down close to her face "you know we are gonna have a good time with you" he said and chuckle sickly. Kurenai couldn't believe what she was hearing she was gonna be made into a sex toy for a group of disgusting men, She would scream but she couldn't bring herself to do so. Seeing that the men were not gonna wait Kurenai closed her eyes a single tear running down her face.
Kurenai was not expecting to hear what she did next "Step away from her you scum". Kurenai opened her eyes to see a figure staring down the group of men he was wearing a black trench coat over a chain mesh shirt with black Anbu pants and combat boots and had black bandages wrapped around his head making sure no one could identify him. "and what are you gonna do if we don't Brat" What appeared to be the leader of the group said almost laughing. A Scythe appeared in the mysterious mans hands as he looked at the group of as he would call them scum "then I will have to kill you" He said in a cold and emotionless tone sending shivers through two of the bandits spines.
The leader of the Bandits looked back at Kurenai "we'll have fun with you once we deal with this brat" he looked back up at his men "lets get him". Kurenai watched as the man who had threatened the bandits spun his scythe and got into his stance before one of the bandits rushed him and went for a slash to his head with a katana he had had on him only for the man to side step it then quickly bring the blade of his scythe up decapitating the bandit quickly before he dropped back into his stance. The bandit leader looked up at the man and growled "you'll pay for that you little brat we were gonna make it quick at first..." Before he could finished the Mysterious man appeared behind him with his scythe to the mans neck "Say hello to the shinigami" Is all the scythe wielding man said before pulling his weapon back relieving the bandits shoulders of his head as he turned to looked at the last remaining of the group.
The final member of the group was shaking I thought being a bandit would be easy not some nightmare the rookie bandit thought as he watched the man who had just killed his two allies walk towards him. The final bandit felt metal against his neck before everything went dark. Kurenai laid there looking at the man who had just appeared out of no where and killed the men who were about to rape her and finally noticed the kanji on the back of his Trench coat it read "Reaper". Reaper turned around and walked to the woman who was defenseless on the ground and knelt down only to watch the drug take full affect as she passed out.
When Kurenai re-awoke she quickly opened her eyes only to see the bright white ceiling of a hospital room and looked down to notice she was on a hospital bed. Looking out of the window near her bed she noticed she was back in Konoha. "Ah good to see you are awake Kurenai-san" Kurenai turned to see the words had come from the elderly third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi "Thank you Hokage-sama... um how did I get here". The Hokage looked at her and raised one of his eyebrows as he took a puff from his pipe before saying "I was hoping you could answer that question Kurenai-san. A nurse found you here". "maybe it was that man" Kurenai said talking more to herself than anyone else but Hiruzen hear her. "what man would you be talking about Kurenai-san" Hiruzen asked her and she turned to look at him and began to inform him of all that happened.
"I see so you had been betrayed by your teammate and were about to be raped before a figure whose whole figure was concealed appeared and rescued you but appeared to be no older that 16 am I correct". "yes Hokage-sama" Kurenai replied with a nod. "Well I am sorry you had to go through that Kurenai you will have a week off to recover but then I will need you back on duty am I understood" Hiruzen said with kindness but also authority in his voice and got a response of "Hai" from the Genjutsu mistress before he got up and left the room.
A few inutes later found Sarutobi Hiruzen sitting in his office looking at a picture of a smiling blonde child he had on his desk and he smiled lightly "Could it have been you Naruto" He asked himself as he looked out the window of his office only to stand up out of his seat and walk over to the window over looking the village to see a figure just like Kurenai had described standing on top of one of the buildings across from the hospital. The man known only as Reaper stood and turned around to meet eyes with the Hokage of Konohagakure no sato and he gave a light wave before he vanished as if he had been blown away with the wind. Sarutobi stood staring out of his window with his mouth slightly agape and only had one thing to say "cocky brat but how are you sixteen" He looked back at the picture on his desk before he gave a happy smile to know that his self proclaimed grandson was alright and carving his own path into becoming a great ninja
