The end of chapter 3. I don't own Naruto.

If you hadn't come today, we would be sold off." Sesshomaru said. He gently put Inuyasha's arm around his shoulders. Inuyasha was out cold from some drug.

"Guys, we got trouble here. The Warlord has a kid hostage and we can't exact attack him " Naruto's voice sounded over the link. Ryska spoke.

"On the way." Ryska said. Demi freed the others and they met in the hallway

"Demi, take Sesshomaru and Inuyasha to Tsunade. You know her. Tell her will meet at the spot." Ryska said. Demi nodded and took Inuyasha's other arm.

"Kahani, come with us. Where are Jack and Erik?" Ryska said. Kahani, a beautiful woman with brown skin and golden eyes, spoke.

"They are waiting for us at the gate. Jack thought it best." She replied. Ryska nodded. Akumaru who had been quiet til now, woofed softly. Kahani smiled.

"Your pup?" Kahani asked Kiba.

"Yeah, we are trying to get better..He is part of me and I him" Kiba replied as the group raced to the spot Naruto was at. Soon, the group saw the warlord, a scarred man with an ugly face, holding a little girl hostage. Kagome and Jagen were there rubbing their wrists.

"Coward! A real amn wouldn't hide behind a child." Naruto scoffed. The man laughed

"It's dog eat dog. This piece of meat will insure my safety and who knows maybe I'll keep her for some... entertainment." The warlord said smiling evilly. Ryska glared at him. Kiba walked to Shikamaru

"Shika, you got a plan?" Kiba asked.

"Unless we catch him of guard, he's got the upper hand. I..." Shika began. Suddenly, a little cat jumped on the Warlords back, it's claws going on his eyes

"AAAAHHHHHHREEEGGGGGGGG!!!! MY EYES!!!! YOU MONGREL!" the Warlord yelled, throwing the child. Neji grabbed her before she hit the ground. The Warlord tried to grab the cat but it jumped away. Suddenly, a tiger came from the sky, grabbing the warlord by his throat and breaking his neck. Ryska scoffed at the dead man.

"Scumbag." Sakura said. The group made to leave the fortress, burning it to the ground. Rin was in Kagome's arms. The group was walking back when a black blur knocked Sakura over. Sakura grunted as she fell down. A figure appeared in front of her with his hand outstretched.

"My apologies, Hiei often forgets to look were he is going." A smooth voice said. Sakura looked up at the angry at the voice but was lost in the greenest eyes she had ever seen. Her heart fluttered. The speaker was a tall redheaded man with pale skin and very handsome. Sakura accepted his hand and he helped her up.

"Thank you..."

"I am Kurama. My friend Hiei knocked you down."

"Thank you Kurama, I'm Sakura." Sakura said. Ryska walked over to the duo.

"Kurama, where are the others?" Ryska asked

"They decided to wait in the valley over due to the fact a warlord has been attacking that area. Hiei and I came alone." Kurama said. Hiei jumped out of the tree.

"If Pinky wasn't in the way I wouldn't have been late." Hiei scoffed. The whole group got quiet. Sakura glared at Hiei.

"Did he..." Kiba said

"Yep..." Ino said.

"Troublesome."

Sakura then proceeded to bring her first down on top of Hiei's head hard. His face was in the grass and his ass was in the air.

"Never...call...me...pinky." Sakura said. Hiei could only nod. The group then continue to the campsite where Tsunade has set up a med tent. Kagome, Jaken, and Rin went there immediately to be checked. Ryska's friends went to wash the stink of the dungeon off of them. The group then shared all the information they have been able to collect. As they were talking Jirayia came through running for his life. He was being chased by lioness who chased him up a tree. Ryska glared at him.

"You were peeping?!" Ryska said.

"Well...yes." Jirayia said. The lioness growled.

"Kahani, change back. I'll deal with Peeping aTom." Ryska said. The lioness turn led into Kahani, her golden eyes blazing. Ryska spoke, her words chilling.

"Let's see. Ah yes." Ryska said, a smile on her face. Jirayia gulped.

"This spell I cast, I cast it.niw on a peeping Tom. Let that appendage which he thinks with shovel and shrink and never rise up until this spell has been removed by the speaker of." Ryska chanted. Jirayia looked at her astonished.

"You... you'll remove it?" Jirayia said. Ryska smiled.

"Maybe, maybe not. I told you no peeping or do you prefer castration?" Ryska said. Jirayia then ran away to his tent. The group.looked at her.

"Life lesson never be a peeping Tom." Ryska told the group..They all nodded unaware of the red eyes that watched them. They had followed every move from the night and wished to join the group but would they accept them?
