NoPoV

Yuri was riding on Blitz getting away from Konoha as fast as possible. She was trying to shake the hunter nin off of her trail with clones but they knew. They had probably a sensory type with them. Okay if that doesn't work, then a genjutsu. I wish I could thank Itachi for this. Doing a few hand-signs, Yuri used her own genjutsu for the first time in battle. Itachi and surprisingly Tobi had helped her to develop the jutsu. "Brutal terror." Yuri whispered. This was a very intricate genjutsu because it made the victim think he was under attack of the scariest animal he or she could think of, and that he or she was going to die due to the attack. What made it so difficult to specify what the victim saw was that each victim saw something different. Yuri hadn't perfected it yet but it could buy her time to get away safely.

When she heard the screams Yuri sighed in relief glad that the jutsu worked this time. She thought of how things had come to this.

Flashback in YuPoV

After taking care of the paperwork I went to the waiting room. "Yuri, how are you feeling?" Shino asked me, wrapping his arms around me.

"Much better but..." I looked down unable to finish the sentence. I have to leave for a while. I didn't want to leave but I had to. I had to warn Gaara. This wasn't something I could use Shadow for because of Zetsu. I had to do it personally.

"But what Yuri? Is something wrong?" He asked me. I sighed deeply and faked a smile.

"No, nothing is wrong but I am afraid I can not stay for much longer for several reasons. First of all, It will only be a matter of time before my good friend Danzou decides that I should be the next person making acquaintances with the executioner, second I have to tell Gaara about my latest vision since he is the only one at the moment who I trust with the information, and then I apparently have some business somewhere else. Once again I don't know if I will return alive." A frustrated sigh sounded from him.

"When will you come back?" He asked probably annoyed with that I was leaving once again, especially after last night.

"I don't know." I answered honestly. "Just know that I will always come back to you." I said finally returning the embrace.

"Will you be okay travelling blind?"

"Yes, I have done it before. That was how I came back though I could use chakra in my eyes to see just a little." I explained while we were walking out of the hospital. "I have learned to use my other senses in battle as well and Tora helps me see as well."

Suddenly I sensed several presences and Shino was pulled away from me. Calling Tora and asking Ryuu-sama to be my eyes, I crouched in a defensive stance with a low growl. "Azura Yuri, Hokage Danzou has ordered that you are to be imprisoned for all the crimes you have committed against the village. Come peacefully or we are ordered to kill you this instant." This could help me move freely around the lands. If I was declared a missing nin, I could just leave my headband and act as a civilian in other countries.

"May I have a private moment first please?" I asked.

"Fine make it quick." I felt Shino touch my arm to let me know he was next to me.

"Would you like to help me? I need a bag packed for a week. All you need to pack is in my kitchen. Put the bag in our special place I will find it soon enough. I will be just fine. I want to try to change the vision I had. Kiss me if you trust me on this." After a moment where I almost thought that he didn't want to help me, that he didn't trust me, but he kissed me. I think he put all his feelings into this one kiss. Passion, love, and also worry and anxiety was what I believe he felt. I kissed back with almost the same feelings. Not with anxiety but assurance, trying to tell him that I would get out of this safely. After the kiss and a short embrace whispering I love you, I was forced to let them tie my hands.

When I was put in jail, again, I asked Tora to shred the ropes and Shadow to look out for any guards. Rubbing my wrists so that my blood would run normal again, I planned to make it clear that I was alone in escaping. First I broke out of the cell, with an earth style jutsu. This alerted the guards. From both sides of the hall, several guards came up. I blew a kiss to them and teleported away. It was almost too easy, but that soon ended when I re-appeared at the entrance right behind Danzou, I used a smoke bomb before he turned around fully. Quickly putting a 'kick me or you'll be cursed' sign on his back and kicking him on the floor, I disappeared again snickering.

This time I reappeared at the place where Shino had asked me out for the first time. Inhaling deeply I breathed in the scents of the flowers and the leaves. Tora told me the bag was lying hidden in a tree. He took it for me and then all hell broke loose. I was captured in a net which Tora cut with his claws and Then I called Blitz. I needed her speed to get away. Four hunter ninja started chasing me.

End flashback

I noticed that we were near the border of the land of Wind so it had taken me six hours to get where one usually gets in twenty-four. It did take a lot out of me though, so I looked for a safe place to nap. Tora came and offered me to do the rest of the trip while I napped on his back. I agreed since I didn't really want to lose time. We got to Suna in half the time I would've done had I walked that way. Not wanting to deal with the guards I teleported right into Gaara's office. Bad idea. As soon as I appeared I was slammed against the wall by sand.

"Nice to know I am welcome." I greeted my favourite sand nin. The same messengers from two days ago were with him.

"Yuri, you should learn not to make such entrances."

"I know but I have some additional information to what these two have to tell you. It couldn't wait and it is worth the pain in my back at the moment." I answered him. He let go of me and he ushered the messengers out. Apparently they had done what they had to do. I dusted off my cloak and sat down.

"Now tell me what you know."

"Have I ever told you of those visions which caused me my blindness?"

"Yes but you have been able to break through the block in your eyes."

"Well, after the last vision I can't even do that anymore. I am now completely and unrepairable blind. Anyway, those messengers asked for your presence at a meeting, correct?"

"Yes."

"You will not be the only one. All the five Kage will be there though instead of Tsunade, my best friend Danzou will be going as he is named Hokage until Tsunade regains consciousness. The meeting will be about what to do with Akatsuki and Sasuke. For some crazy reason I don't get yet, I will be there as well though not as a kage but as a representative of the hidden Rain village. I don't know how or why." I explained.

"Do you know the outcome of the meeting?"

"War."

"I see. I thank you for the information, and I shall see you at the meeting." He dismissed me.

Before I left, I turned back once and said; "At the moment I only trust you as a leader, Gaara, for I can only trust you with the information I have. The current Hokage is not to be trusted easily. When you see Danzou, give him my best regards." and I left. Riding on Tora I went to Amegakure knowing that that was where I would need to be for what I don't know but I hoped that he wouldn't be ordering me to go to the summit. It took days to get to the village that was still hidden in rain.

"Finally she returns to the master." I heard then it was dark before my eyes and a sharp pain through my head.

I woke up to a door opening. I was in a room chained to the wall. I hadn't eaten since I left Suna. I tried going for the food that I could smell was right in front of me, but my chain was just a little too short. I tried to break free but it wouldn't work. I couldn't use chakra because I didn't have any left and when I tried to get my pouch where a few soldier pills were, I felt that my pouch was taken.

"So she awakens finally." a familiar voice said. Smelling the air, I could tell it was Suigetsu. If he is here that must mean that Sasuke is as well and that must mean that he did join Akatsuki. Lovely. My stomach roared again and this time it hurt. I reached for the food again but still no good end result. Then the plate was picked up and it moved closer. "Karin must have been jealous again. Leader-sama did order her to give you some food." the white-bluish haired nin said while he watched me eat. a pang of hurt was shot through my heart at the title he gave 'tobi' and I growled as reaction.

"Suigetsu what is taking so long. Is she done yet?" another voice asked. It was Kisame. He was still alive then. My feet were freed from their chains and I was forced to walk. "We are taking you to Madara." Kisame told me.

"I guessed as much. I am surprised that you changed your loyalty so easily from Pein to him." I answered. "Unless you knew who was the real leader."

"I didn't know." Kisame said.

"Then please don't die on me as well. I couldn't bear losing another one I care about after losing so many." I said as the faces of those I lost came to the front of my mind.

"Just hear what he has to say then you and I have a mission. You and I are now the only ones except for Zetsu who are still alive." Kisame finished the conversation ignoring my words. I was pushed in a room where I sensed the dark aura of Tobi and Sasuke. I shivered from the cold and dark atmosphere.

"On your knees." Madara ordered. I didn't want to but my body moved involuntarily. Once I sat on my knees with my face to the ground, he spoke again. "Yuri, you have disobeyed my rules and that's why I will be using you as a practice dummy on the way to the kage summit. However in this state, you are useless to me so I will have to give you new eyes." I bowed.

"Thank you master Uchiha." I spoke quietly. He started to torture me until I almost died then he left me to someone. It was a woman. Probably that Karin person.

"Listen up, if you even think of getting close to Sasuke, I will kill you." She threatened.

"I am not interested in Sasuke like that. I already have a boyfriend and he suits me just fine. Though I don't know how long we will be together if I keep leaving all the time or doing horrible things to my village." I told her honestly. I really didn't know how Shino could take me back after I, did so much against the village, and left him so many times unexpectedly.

"If he keeps being with you after you do all that stuff, then he must truly love you a lot. I wish I had someone like that." She said. That surprised me. Usually the Sasuke-fangirl was all about Sasuke this and Sasuke that, Sasuke is so perfect etc.

"Then why pursue a dream boy, when there are enough better men. I am sure that someone like you could find a man that does give you the attention you deserve." I told her.

"You think so?" She asked.

"I know so." I answered with a small smile.

"My name is Karin." She introduced herself.

"Azura Yuri." I introduced myself as well. She healed me and we talked a bit more. This girl really was more of a fangirl. Sakura was really in love with Sasuke. Karin, can I ask you a favour?"

"depends." She answered.

"If you are in a village with a mailing system, could you send a message to the Leaf village for me? I really want him to know that I am alive and well and that I miss him but I don't think I can get away to send it."

"Of course. I don't mind doing that for you, but you are leaving after you get your eyes which will be pretty soon so you are the first to get to a village."

"Oh, I didn't know I would leave so soon. Thank you for wanting to help anyway." I thanked her

"Your welcome." She said and she left. I was alone thinking for a bit until I had to get new eyes. It was Kabuto who would implant them. I am curious as to who's eyes I would get. Soon Kabuto walked in. It was time
