Chapter 17 (Saiya POV)

"Good luck on your mission Saiya!" Suzuki bade me good bye.

After Kakashi had left, Suzuki showed up and walked me to the gate of Konoha.

"Thank you for the farewell but you didn't have to," I said.

"Well, I just wanted to say good bye," he smiled, leaned in and kissed my cheek.

I opened my mouth to say something, but by then he had teleported.

'Well shit,' I thought to myself.

Since when did Suzuki kiss me? Gah! He's good looking, successful, a little older than my taste...wait! I'm with Kakashi now! Aw man, this is conversation I do not want to have with him. It makes it even more awkward knowing that Suzuki is my boss.

I started on my journey toward Sound Country. I took my time. Nothing of significance happened on my journey until I reached the border of Sound. The moment I set foot into Sound Country, a man appeared in front of me.

"Who are you and what is your business here in Sound country?" he asked me harshly, brandishing a kunai.

"I'm just visiting my cousin in Kumogakure," I said innocently. "I've heard a lot about Otakagure; the flowers are supposed to be beautiful here, so I thought I'd see those on my way to see her."

"Who's your cousin?" he asked me.

"Her name is Kimiko," I said, feigning sadness. "She's on her deathbed."

"I don't believe you," he said harshly pinning me to a tree.

"Ah, it was worth a shot," I said sadly.

I had hidden a clone nearby which appeared behind him and knocked him out before he could scream. I tied him up and gagged him. I took his ID and other weapons and donned his clothes. I performed a transformation and went in as him.

"Yo Leo! You okay man? Where did you run off to?" I heard a voice call through the trees.

I just hope the other sound ninja were pushovers like this guy was; apparently his name is Leo.

"Yea guys sorry I just had to take a leak," I said, masquerading as Leo.

"Dude you sick or something? I don't sound like yourself," one of the guys looked at me weird.

"Really? I might be coming down with something," I said genially.
"Ah, well Lord Orochimaru wants to see you," the first guy said.

My insides twisted; shit, I didn't plan for this. I'm outta shape…

"Why does he want to see me?" I asked suspiciously.

"Ease up Leo! You know anyone who sees him eventually becomes stronger! This is a good thing!" the guys patted my back.

My insides were twisting. There was no way out.

"Better not keep him waiting," I mumbled and followed one of the guys.

"I heard Konoha sent a spy to infiltrate us," the guy mentioned, eyeing me closely.

"Really? I didn't see anyone," I chuckled nervously.

"Hm, that's weird, she walked right past you," he whipped around and threw some shuriken in my direction.

I ducked and sent some fireballs in his direction. Other ninja came out of the ground and surrounded me. I was trapped.

"Fine, I'll come quietly," I said, putting my hands up in surrender. "Happy now?"

"Not even close," I heard an eerily familiar voice and before I knew what had hit me, I lost consciousness.
