Netra closed her eyes and tried to feel the world around her. She was better at sensing things in the open. Here the echo. was blocked by buildings and trees. She couldn't find anything worthwhile.
"This is fucking stupid," Netra said.
Vihaan gave her a sharp look. "Just do your thing and help us out."
Shikamaru seemed to sense Netra was going to strangle Vihaan.
"I think we should split up for a few moments. We need to take a break, but it looks suspicious if we are all together." He grinned.
Netra understood what he was offering. He would take Vihaan so she could have a moment without her annoying 'cousin.' Why they needed the most annoying member of the Takeda clan was obvious, but not something Netra enjoyed. Her mother had asked her to do this, which was why she was even here.
This is fucking annoying, fuck family. Netra slung herself down on the softly passed floor. The fucking forest screwed with her. She was used to sand and the wind. Konoha was killing her skills. She felt weaker. She wanted to go home, but there was no home to go back to.
She felt a warmth in her chest, bubbling hysterically under her skin. She wanted a nap. She needed to just... leave here. To run until no one knew her.
Drawing her abilities back into her, she sighed.
They had been tracking Jacket for the better part of the morning. All they had were ghost stories from some very iffy sources. Netra didn't like that people knew they were looking for someone. It bothered her on a lot of levels. She wanted to disappear from this shitty city, especially when she noticed the signature following them. She had seen a man trailing her.
She let her mind wander. Shikamaru didn't seem concerned. He told her that people were always going to be suspicious of them. They were a ninja squad, even with the most powerful disguises, they would make sensitive people take a step back. Or Vihaan and Shikamaru did. Netra seemed to inspire people to get way too close. It came with being short.
Sometimes she would see a blonde girl turning the corner just as she walked past a street. The man was more persistent, seems to appear when she just wanted to be alone.
She jerked up, lurching into a tree right as the blue strings descended. She had been stupid to completely cut off the world, even if she was tired. The man was back, this time wearing a stupid cat eared hat.
"Can I help you?" Netra demanded.
"I am looking for Takeda." The man drew back his strings. They seemed to be made of Chakra. He was Sand. Or formerly... He didn't have a headband on. His skin was too light for him to have been in Sand recently.
He didn't have the same smell, the burnt leather scent that clung to those who lived among the smooth rocks and smothering heat. He was a City Boy, though, she could tell by how white his palms were. He lifted up a hand to show her was unarmed-something she didn't trust for a moment. He was a puppeteer. Those strings could come out at any moment.
"What do you want with me?" Netra asked. "Do I look like I'm from a clan?"
She let bitterness tinged her words. Where was Shikamaru? Knowing the asshole, he used her as bait again. She was the smallest, baby-faced, and able to convince most people she was harmless. Not that this guy seemed to believe it if anything he was warier. He must know who she was.
His next words confirmed it. "I am sorry, Baba, but I have need of his help. The enemy of my enemy is my friend..." he said. "I am Kankuro of the... I am Kankuro."
"You're the asshole who has been following me," Netra said. "I guess I need to go now."
She moved towards the other side of the clearing. She didn't expect the chakra net to completely block her in. It seemed to come from nowhere. She knew the technique, it had just been awhile since she saw a Fisher's Net in real life. The nostalgia stopped her.
"It's good," she said as she turned. "What do you want?"
"I wish to speak with Takeda," Kankuro said. He grinned. The net fell away. "We need to talk about the girl you are following. Kondo the Slaughterer."
Netra felt her feet grow hot. "Kondo the Slaughterer?" she whispered it like one whispers a curse word around a parent. "Who the fuck would try to hunt-I am going to kill him!"
Netra felt her chakra boil. The air around her grew hot and started to spin. She was about to unleash a cutting blast when Shikamaru and Vihaan landed beside her.
She turned her anger on the moron. "Does Shikamaru know the person you are having us track? Jacket? How cute! A little nickname for someone who- Drove us from our own home. I refuse to die for this mission. You told me it would be a retrieval mission, not fighting the one person who killed my own sister. Did you know? Shikamaru, did you know?"
"Yes. I knew she had killed some of your clan, but not who she was or what she did exactly. Vihaan is here because he is the only one who can..."
"I don't care. I'm out." Netra moved to leave the clearing, but Kankuro stepped in front of her. Netra spun under his arm and took off down the path.
"Should we?" Vihaan asked.
"Not you."
Shikamaru nodded to Kankuro. "Just don't be an asshole. I would like her returned in one piece."
Kankuro nodded.
Then he too was gone.
