Naruto Fan Fiction ❯ Link of Fate ❯ Bad Beginning ( Chapter 3 )

[ P - Pre-Teen ]

Futai sat there. Just thinking, thinking about what she was here for and why she was attacked.

*why was I only given a minor injury. Who would do that?* she was thinking.

All these thoughts ran through her head. She finally came up with a conclusion.

“They know.” she said in a dark voice. She squeezed the sheets with anger.

*I cant stay here. There isn’t much time left. I have to get out of here. . .NOW*

She looked around for her bag. . .”Damn it!” she yelled.

She walked over to the door. “Not there.”

She looked in the closet. “Nope.”

When she finally found it, it was next to her bed.

“I am so pathetic.” she said ,annoyed, walking towards the window.

“Wait a minute. . .an I THAT stupid?” she growled.

Futai was making hand signs. “Okay, I don’t feel any charka’s outside the room. “ she whispered reassuringly. “Im good now.” she laughed with a sigh of relief.

As she reached toward the window pane, three kunai darted into the upper pane, making it impossible to open the window.

*Shit!*

“And where are you going?” asked a man in a teasing voice.

~~~~Naruto~~~~

Naruto sat there next to Sakura and Sasuke. Tsunade had sent them on a mission to find any evidence as to who went after Futai. But it was also a part of their training and it was useless in trying unless Kakashi was there to tell them what to do.

“I cant believe he’s late AGAIN.” groaned Sakura.

Inner Sakura: “Chyaa! Now its just annoying!”

“Hm.” said Sasuke turning his head.

They had no idea if he was agreeing or what.

“Well, he’d better get here soon.” Naruto grumbled, staring at the ground.

“We might as well just start looking around.” Sasuke said in a dead tone.

“Yeah. I agree with Sasuke.” sakura said, unsure of what they were looking for.

“What do you mean?! We don’t even know what to look for, how are we supposed to look for something we have no clue about?!” yelled Naruto, having yet another tantrum.

“Shut up. . .baka.” an annoyed Sasuke commented.

“Just look for things that are unusual.” he said not adding much detail.

“In other words Naruto, bloody kunai, pieces if clothing, blood stains, things like that.” explained the pink-haired kunoichi.

“Lets split up. Sakura search the road to the village. Naruto show me where you found that girl, then you can search the surrounding area.” said Sasuke

Naruto was having a huge argument about why Sasuke got to make the plans but of course, he lost the argument.

Sasuke looked at the tree where Futai was found. There was a huge bloodstain where her back would have been against the tree. There was also a partial Genjutsu entrapment seal.

---Sakura-----

“Why couldn’t I go with Sasuke?” she jealously said.

“Stupid Naruto.”

There was no use trying to analyze the footprints. They all looked the same to her. Many people go in and out of the village each day. She gave up and decided to take a walk.

Sakura walked to just about the middle of the forest. It was so quiet and peaceful. That is where she always went to clear her mind.

*Who is Futai and where is she from? She was wearing the village headband but she is not from our village.*

She felt a strong chakra heading towards them. It was mostly the same as Kakashi’s so she didn’t look too much into it.

*And her name. . .it’s Hatake. Could she be. . .? No. But somehow she is probably related to Kakashi sensei. How though?*

All of a sudden she felt the strong chakra stop.

Then she heard a scream.
