It was time to seal the two-tails. All the members gathered, either as hologram or as real people. Yuri, Deidara, Pein, Konan and Zetsu were real humans the rest were the holograms. "Summoning no jutsu." Pein said slamming his hand on the ground. The sealing statue appeared and they all took their places. Yuri stood on the right thumb. "Yuri, you just have to concentrate on sending your chakra through the statue. That is all." He explained. Yuri did as said and concentrated solely on that. After four hours she was bored.
"Is this all? I am bored." Yuri said.
"Yeah this is pretty much it. By the way, can we talk when we are done here?" Deidara asked.
"Sure. though if it is about the kiss then you don't need to worry, it won't happen again." she answered knowing it would be about that. It got even more quiet than before.
"You kissed her? How stupid can you be!" Hidan said. The others agreed, though I wasn't sure about Itachi because he stayed quiet. Leader stayed quiet too but Konan shot a death glare at Deidara. After eight more hours they were half way, but Yuri was almost out of chakra. She could only go on for two more hours before she would be completely out of chakra.
"Why are you so angry with him? It was all Ryutaro's fault. If he hadn't hidden in my room Deidara and I wouldn't have collided." Yuri explained
"Fine. Then I will beat him up." Hidan said.
"You can't do that before our mission otherwise I will have to spend precious money earning time on sewing your ass together." Kakuzu said. Then the usual arguing started. Yuri watched Leader get annoyed and quickly sent Blitz who shocked the two a bit with her chakra, waking them from their argument.
YuPoV
I nudged my head in Leader's direction. They followed my direction and quickly shut up. Then I felt myself getting weaker and weaker because I was past the limit. Someone hit me with a soldier pill. I ate it quickly. The boost it gave me was a nice feeling, but wasn't enough. Blitz always took a lot of chakra to call. My legs started to shake and I couldn't stand still. I fell on the ground, but with my hands still in position. I sent all the chakra I could miss without dying, through the statue and then I fainted. I fell off of the statue and I didn't care, nor was I able to do anything about it. I landed on something soft. It was a human. Tobi. I wrapped my arms around him and fell asleep. It wasn't exactly comfortable, but I didn't care. I went to sleep.
I woke up again when I was thrown on something. That something was my bed and Tobi had thrown me onto it. I didn't mind being fully clothed. I went back to sleep. After a nice dreamless sleep I was woken up by someone dragging my blanket off of me. I tried to steal it back which resulted in a tugging war. "Yuri let go you have to leave on your mission with Kakuzu and Hidan." Deidara said. I woke up and let go of the blanket. I let a clone gather my things. This way I could hurry up and still eat proper breakfast. Five minutes later I was walking to the meeting point. It was close to the border of the land of fire. Tora offered me a ride because I was still a little sleepy. We rode for a few hours until I sensed another presence. I was close to the border.
"Stop right there." A Konoha guard. I knew that voice. I pretended to do some string of hand-seals. A prick in my neck. Senbon. It really was Genma. He appeared with Raido. "This is as far as you will go. Now show us your face. Before we will have to resort to fighting that hat off of you."
"I am disappointed. You already forgot about me, Genma-san?" I said not moving otherwise.
"I don't care about remembering certain Akatsuki-scum." He said
"You should for you might die otherwise."
"I'll remember next time. Now show us your face."
"I'll humor you." I said and I slowly took my hat off. Their eyes widened slightly.
"Azura Yuri, You are under arrest for betraying the hidden leaf village, joining Konoha's greatest enemy, the Akatsuki, Attacking the current Kazekage and his siblings and so on."
"Yeeaahh, No I have better things to do than keeping my comrades waiting." I said and gathered my chakra to call my Animals.
"I don't think so." a female voice.
"Hello Anko. long time no see." I greeted her.
She did a fire technique. I dodged, well I thought I did but I was caught in wire. Like a hare caught in a trap. Tora tore through the wire quickly but my foot got burned. I couldn't stand on it because it hurt too much. Anko was a good opponent. I called jaws and used exploding water colliding wave. My enemies washed away. and I used the distraction to heal my foot and to get away. I was a bit late but met the zombie team at the meeting point. "You're late." Kakuzu.
"I was a little distracted." We walked on but I noticed we passed the border to Fire and followed the route to Konoha. "May I ask what the mission is about?"
"What the hell do you think. It's to catch another fucking jinchuuriki." Hidan answered annoyed that I was late and uninformed.
"And you are aiming for the nine-tails?"
"Yes, on our way to the exchange point, we got in a fight with a team. Hidan killed the teacher."
What did the team's kunoichi look like?" I asked.
"She had fucking blond hair and a body that I wouldn't mind to paint with blood." Hidan said
Ino? then they killed.. Asuma. But.. he and Kurenai..
We walked on for a few hours I walked behind them and watched them argue. We got to some barren land and were attacked. The dust cleared and we watched from behind some dead trees as the enemy appeared. It was team ten. But instead of Asuma, Kakashi was here. "Move!" I was ripped out of my thoughts, by Kakuzu ordering us to move. I saw a shadow moving to the two of them. It didn't move to me. Can't they sense me? Kakuzu and Hidan started arguing and I laughed at Hidan's face, when Kakuzu called him stupid enough to fall for a trap. My laugh made them realize there was a third opponent.
I walked out of the shadows and took my hat off.
"I must thank you, Konoha for I haven't laughed like this for a while. I almost forgot what it felt like." I said after I stopped laughing. Team ten looked surprised that I was there too. Shikamaru probably didn't count on a third opponent. I could see the wheels turning in his head. Before he could say anything Ino was starting to form her signature hand seal. Merlin attacked her distracting her. Before I could make a move, Kakashi was gone. I looked around Shadow warned me he had gone underground. I poured chakra into my leg and stomped on the ground. Kakashi apparently anticipated this and he moved out of the ground using Tiger → Snake → Dragon → Dog and summoned Pakkun and the pack, they grabbed me before I could use anything. That shit hurts like hell. The pain made it unable for me to move. Tora came out and made the pack disappear. I fought Kakashi but my heart just wasn't in it. He was still my neighbour and friend for most of my life. That was my weakness in this fight I still hadn't learned to control my emotions enough.
At a certain point in our fight, I was bound by a few shuriken to a tree. It was now that I noticed, that Kakashi had separated us from the others. "Yuri, calm down. I know why you hate the village. I have done some research on your clan using the Third and the Fourth their information and I found out why you don't want to stay for long in one place. It's because of Tora. A Tiger is always alone except for their mating season. Since your first Animal is a tiger, you got the trait to travel too. Like every other member of your clan got a trait of their first Animal. We aren't mad at you." Damn it, it's true.
"I also know why you couldn't kill any of your friends and left Team eight unscratched." Please don't say it.
"An Azura clan member mates like swans do, for life. It's a wild guess but I think that you found your mate." Don't react at all, Yuri. Control your emotions. I lowered my head. No! Stop! That was all Kakashi needed as an answer.
"As I thought. I am guessing that your mate is Shino, isn't he?" I hid my face not showing any emotions through my eyes. It was hurting me not being with Shino anymore though it was for the best. If I would return, I would probably get executed for betraying the village and trying to kill it's ninjas.
"Yuri, it's okay. Tsunade has convinced the council that you can have a job that requires a lot of travelling but then you would still be loyal to us and our allies. I have a scroll with me with all the information you need on this. when you have read this, you need to contact Jiraiya three days after." He put the scroll in my weapon pouch. He freed me and left me to my own devices. I read the scroll as soon as I was alone.
Name assigned Ninja: Azura Yuri.
Rank of mission: S-rank. lovely
Duration of the mission: As long as the assigned ninja stays alive.
Description of the mission:
Collect any requested intel for the higher ranked missions (ranking from B- to S-rank.) Sent all the intel you found for a mission to the village who requested it. Sometimes you will need help from our other collector Jiraiya. contact him only when necessary. Once a month you are to report in Konoha or Suna about your achievements. The Kage will be judging the quality, quantity and your ability to continue the job.
I decided to take this mission. reading further I found a seal. Unsealing it I summoned a toad. it was blue and yellow. It gave a message scroll and I filled in the needed information, while planning how to defect from Akatsuki and surviving it. It would be hard for I couldn't defeat them all. Maybe Deidara because I know his tricks and I don't know what the others will do.
I went after Kakashi when I heard "Rasengan!" If Naruto is here, then Sakura is here too. This is my chance to kill her. I rushed to the fight. There they were. I landed next to Kakuzu. I didn't see Hidan anywhere. Neither did I see Shikamaru.
"You're later and you let the copy nin live. You are getting weak." Kakuzu said. Right then and there something seemed to snap.
"I am not weak. I'm just not interested in a fight with a Sharingan-user. I want pinky over there." I said as calm as possible, pulling my Sasori-face. I never did that so he probably thought that I was very serious. "I see you lost a heart, maybe you are the one getting weak, old man."
Secretly I had let Shadow dig a trap or two around the pink haired bitch. I could forgive Gaara for he couldn't help it that Akatsuki wanted the bijuu, but I couldn't forgive Sakura. I was a bit low on chakra so I had to make it quick, or else I would have a problem. Naruto seemed distraught that I joined the enemy. I didn't care anymore, though a plan for leaving Akatsuki came to mind. It would be hard to survive this but it's worth it if I can find out how Shino is doing. I attacked Sakura using earth barrier raging wave. Of course she was defended by a dark haired boy who used lions made of.. ink? As soon as Tora tore through them the ink splattered on the ground before evaporating.
Sakura attacked me with a blue glowing fist. I avoided the attack by jumping towards her and grabbing her arm. I used my body to throw Sakura on the ground. She landed and jumped forward attacking me again. Suddenly handcuffs made of wood caught my wrists. Naruto was still fighting Kakuzu, who had lost four of his hearts already. "I wish to thank you for all you did for me. I apologize I wasted so much time." I told him
"Thank you. I finally got rid of that annoying partner of mine. Don't waste too much time on being unhappy, just go for your precious person." He answered knowing that we couldn't win. Suddenly his final heart started bleeding out. Hidan. Goodbye Kakuzu-sensei. They took me to the village. but not before taking Kakuzu's ring. Mine was burning a little indicating that Leader wanted to contact me. I tried ot ignore it but the burning got worse. I concentrated my chakra into the ring and talked with Leader.
