They sat in a restaurant with a man who was old, and weary. His gray hair was tied back and he was wearing some really dirty clothes.

"So this shinobi, is in the Land of Waves?" Anko asked again, buying the man another plate of food.

"I swear it. I saw him, and then glanced at the wanted poster. We met three times,and he raped...raped..." he replied. The way he broke down into tears suggested the worst.

"Sounds like our guy!" Naruto said triumphantly, but Yuki held up a finger.

"I want you to describe him in explicit detail," she said firm.

"He was about this woman's height. Green hair that hung to his hips. Vivid blue eyes. He carried a very unique sword. It was small, and he held it backwards. He wore almost a black shirt that came down to his knees, and blue ninja pants, with some wooden sandals. Across the shirt a white strap carried his sword. On the sash was his headband which hung from it. That's about all there is to tell."

"Any scars, that you remember," Yuki probed.

"AH!Yes...the one on his cheek. It was shaped like an x that had line connecting two of the points. Like this," he stated, drawing the symbol. Yuki was satisfied and sat back.

He's seen him, and he has suffered some loss at his hand, so vengeance is what he desires. We were assigned to kill him, and that is exactly what we intend to do. He's given us some solid information.

She waited for them to finish up, and headed for a breath of fresh air, joined by Naruto.

"You ok?"

"Yeah. An A-rank mission on my birthday? I can't wait to take this guy down!" she replied, her body psyched at the idea.

"Ahhhh. But, don't you think...that what you're wearing is a little to scanty?" he asked, not realizing the way he said it was inappropiate.

Yuki felt a vein pop out, and instead of arguing, settled herself, for patting Naruto's cheek a couple times, and walking away. She swung her hips seductively, hoping for some unknown reason that Kyuubi was watching.

As they regrouped at the lz, Kakashi described the enemy as the book did.

"Apparently he has fought Itachi Uchiha and fooled his Sharingan. Once. Granted the fight was ended with Itachi the victor, but his genjutsu is so powerful, that he has twenty four parts. It is said that looking into the thirtheenth is fatal. Keep your guard up and do underestimate him. There is not a single one of us other than me, that is capable of warding off his genjutsu. He sucks at Taijutsu, I'm told so Naruto, you will fulfill that continuum. Make sure he doesn't leave your grasp. Anko...ensure you keep an eye on Yuki and help us keep him in our sights. Lastly, be wary of his sword. I am told it has five elements inside of it, so if we take that away from him, his ninjutsu should be lacking. Ok?"

Everyone nodded in agreement and they headed towards the Land of Waves.
