Back! So here is the next chapter! Hope you all enjoy!
-K.
"Again! We have to circle the entire perimeter-you know that! Come on, move it!" Several shouts rang out from the outskirts of the village of Suna. Several groups of Sand ANBU were circling the outsides of the village every few minutes, as they had been the last few weeks. The village had been put on yellow alert for the duration of this time, warning of impending trouble, but the inevitable irritation rising in the ranks of the Sand ANBU was becoming more and more apparent. Why was Kazekage-sama having them keep this up? Nothing had been spotted for weeks, and it was growing wearisome to keep circling the village like this every day. Really, if something was out there, it would have made itself known before now. Any sensible man would have called off this state of alert weeks ago…
"BOOM!"
A cloud of sand rose from the point of the explosion, sending a plume of tan smoke towards the sky. The ANBU darted around the crater in the sand skillfully, although a few of them had to hang back from the explosion and were stuck for a few precious seconds behind their teammates. Thankfully, as the team surveyed the other members of their group, none of them appeared to be injured. There appeared to be no one in the clearing besides themselves, but that didn't fool the Sand village ANBU. They were here somewhere. The leader of the group yelled out confidently, "Show yourself, you cowards!" The others were already quietly mumbling into their earpieces, letting other ANBU and their superiors know of the situation.
"Hmph. He is a cocky one, isn't he Raiden-sama?" A man stepped out of the clearing, a cunning smirk plastered on his face.
"Yes, I daresay he is, Arashi-san," another man stepped out of the clearing. His tone suggested that he was at great ease with his surroundings, and his tone even contained a happy lilt. "Shall we?" The man-Raiden, as the ANBU had heard the other man address him-grinned, and in a split second the two were gone.
For a second, the ANBU team was in shock, but then they snapped back into action. Now screaming into their earpieces, they took off after the two rogue nin in the direction they thought they had traveled. However, they knew it wouldn't be easy. The two had left absolutely no chakra trail to follow, and none of the ANBU within the group could catch their scent.
Inside the Kazekage's office, Gaara fought the urge to hit something. Hard.
The bastards were finally here. They were here to take Hinata.
While Gaara was somewhat relived by this-now he wouldn't be worrying constantly about when it would happen or if he could protect her from them-he was furious at the notion that they actually had enough gall to go through with it. They would not in any way hurt Hinata. He simply wouldn't allow it.
On a much lesser scale than his anger, though, Gaara was absolutely astounded at their idiocy. After all of these years as Kazekage, someone was honestly stupid enough to go through with something like this? He thought he had shown everyone before when the Akatsuki had attacked his village, and when Matsuri, his beloved student was kidnapped, that he would die to protect things important to him.
Gaara had thought he'd made his point. You didn't touch things that were his. Period.
Although he now supposed he didn't quite make his point get through to everyone. No matter; He would now.
When a team of his ANBU had radioed in that they had engaged two rogue nin by the name of Arashi and Raiden, Gaara instantly leapt from his seat, screaming for the ANBU messengers to get Hinata in his Kazekage offices' building. With all the ninja constantly swarming the place, she would be safe for the time being. There was even a hidden tunnel system underneath the building filled with supplies, clothes, and bedding for his employees in the event of a crisis. It was one of his better ideas. After all, when an enemy attacks the village, they expect to see the Kage and his affiliates in the streets, the former protecting the village and the latter running home to gather some things before evacuating. This way, they would be protected faster, and they would have some time to gather or destroy precious documents that the enemy nin could be after. This way he had an enormous advantage.
He had been informed a few minutes ago that the two ANBU he had sent to her had made contact with her; they were waiting on her to pack a few things so that they could bring her back to the office building. Knowing that she had two ANBU with her was a huge relief, and Gaara quickly assembled a weapons pouch and reached for his gourd and coat. Without another worry or thought, he ran out the door to assist his ninja in the capture of the two scum who dared challenge the Kazekage of the Sand and his girl.
Hinata hurriedly gathered her belongings into the small pack she had brought with her from Konoha. Two ANBU had just showed up at her door and informed her of their orders: they were to take her to the Kazekage's office building until the red alert that the Kazekage had just placed on the village was lifted. The streets were clearing rapidly as people were hurriedly trying to make their way off the streets. Ninja were running around the village, ensuring the civilians were safe and everything in the village was indeed locked down. Of course, they kept an eye out for the rogue ninja as well, but they knew that the ANBU and the Kazekage were trailing the enemy nin at this very moment. Hinata knew of this situation firsthand-she and her teammates had been doing the same thing when the attack came on the leaf during the chuunin exams and the third Hokage had died. A feeling of great sadness overtook her at that thought, and almost as quickly as the former had come, another thought took its place and she went into a near panic. What if that happened to Gaara? Here? Now?
Today?
The thought refused to leave her, and her body started to shake violently with fear. What would she do if anything happened to him?
Ever since she had come to Suna, she had been feeling an inexplicable attraction to the Kazekage. Although she knew she shouldn't allow herself to feel such a thing, it had just happened, and she had no control over it. Over the past few months and during their training sessions, the kunoichi couldn't help but feel closer to the former jinchuuriki. Oh, who was she kidding? She was in love with him!
She had known that from the start, but oddly enough, didn't want to come to terms with it until now. After all, if she had, how could she have faced him? She probably never would have admitted it to herself, either-at least until now. Apparently the threat of losing something you love really does open your eyes.
Hinata shook her head, trying to clear her thoughts. She needed to focus, and finish packing. Her ANBU guards outside her door were waiting for her.
…but did she really want to go with them?
She was a perfectly capable kunoichi-foreign or not-and whether Gaara wanted to admit it or not, she needed to be out there to help his village. Biting her lip, Hinata took a few precious seconds to make a decision. If she went with the ANBU guards outside her door, she would be safe, she knew, but would feel like a burden. If she disobeyed the Kazekage's orders, however, she would not only find herself in a lot of trouble, but it could perhaps forever damage his trust towards her. If she did disobey him though, she would be able to help save his village. As a fellow ninja, she understood the importance of the latter.
Stealthily she made her way toward her open window and carefully dropped to the ground beneath the ledge, so she wouldn't attract her two ANBU guards' attention.
Chiasa circled the perimeter again one more time before speeding off toward the village. She had to wait on those two idiot teammates of hers-Arashi and Raiden-to create a big enough distraction that would divert a majority of the more powerful nin away from the village after them. Her mission was a simple one, yet an important one-no matter how inane it sounded, as Raiden had professed many times. She resisted the urge to roll her eyes, as she drew ever closer to her destination. Honestly, how ridiculous was this-she a fully grown and powerful kunoichi, having to do something as stupid as this? Sure, she volunteered for it, but it was only for the girls' own sake, if that. She knew if she sent Arashi to do this, he wouldn't be able to control himself, and as for Raiden-Chiasa resisted the urge to shudder. Yes, it was much better this way.
Finally, she had reached her destination. The trip there had been fairly easy. Only a few chuunin had seen her running, but with a quick genjutsu, they had been dealt with. They were only asleep though, and would wake up within the hour. Unlike her reckless, power-hungry teammates, she hated taking lives unless absolutely necessary.
Chiasa peered around the corner of the building she was currently braced against, making sure the coast was clear before proceeding towards her ultimate destination. The kazekage's mansion, eh? The girl must have known how to make an impression, if she was being allotted a room in luxury like this.
She slipped past the few outpost guards placed around the house with ease; they were good, but not good enough to notice her suppressed spirit chakra. Chiasa resisted the urge to smirk-spirit chakra was the strongest and most potent of all chakras. According to her clan's scrolls, it harnessed and controlled the energy given off by the soul. Chakra of the body was the most common form of chakra, but when that was completely used up, the user was dead. The village hidden in the leaf was the closest group of shinobi to come close to harnessing the spirit's chakra, because of their ideals of the "will of fire". When a loved one was in danger, they were able to tap into their spirit chakra to an extent, but it was still nothing compared to what an experienced spirit user could do. Hers had been of the few clans to use it, until they were wiped out by the attacks of the Bijuu. It was a rare technique nowadays, and not many knew of it, let alone knew of its weaknesses. Still, it made for some rather boring battles, in her opinion, when her opponents stood no chance from the very beginning.
There. Chiasa's eyes narrowed. The girls' window was on the third floor-not too terribly high for a ninja. Gathering chakra to her feet, she ran towards the building, and pushed off from the ground, shifting her weight from the ground to her chakra-laden feet. She was now scaling the wall with ease, and within seconds she had hopped into the girl's open window with absolutely no complications. It seemed as though everyone had abandoned the room, although it hadn't been long ago. There were no chakra signatures outside the door-or on the entire floor, in fact. Her eyes narrowed and mild skepticism soon replaced the woman's suspicious look. There were no guards anywhere nearby, no one on the entire floor, and the girl didn't booby-trap her room? Interesting. After a quick sweep of the room, though, she noticed the girl's bag-still opened-with its' contents nearly spilling out of it.
'So, the girl left in a hurry,' Chiasa deduced, 'but her weapons are gone. Hmm…she must have rebelled against orders.' Chiasa resisted the urge to smile. She hadn't even met the kid yet, but instantly Chiasa knew this girl was something else.
Realizing she was pressed for time, the rogue kunoichi hurriedly slipped the note she had been ordered to deliver out of her jacket pocket, and glanced about the room for a decent place to hide it.
'I can't put it anywhere someone might easily find it, but it has to be somewhere the girl can find it soon enough-ah-ha!' Chiasa bit her lip, suppressing her delight. Her luck couldn't have been any better. Delicately, the rogue kunoichi stepped forward and placed the envelope amongst the contents of the Hyuuga girl's opened bag. It was perfect-the note was not in plain sight of anyone's vision, but she knew as soon as the girl unpacked her things, the note would fall out. As for the fact that anyone could be in the room while the Hyuuga girl discovered the note, well…that was a risk she was going to have to take. There was nowhere else in the room that provided such an obvious opportunity as that opened bag.
Stealthily, Chiasa once again made her way over to the opened window, and this time did not hesitate as she dropped to the ground and began her retreat.
Fin!
