Naruto Fan Fiction ❯ Naruto Sister Sequel ❯ Come Little Children ( Chapter 3 )

 

 

Shattered and broken in body and mind the blonde woman crawled across the floor to the only spot that allowed her to escape the cold air that swirled in her prison with clutching fingers. She lay on her left side curled around her stomach protectively the bump was barely noticeable through her rags and she was very careful of hiding that fact from her captors, lungs that had once been strong and full 4 months ago now worked hard to supply her body as well as the baby she carried with enough oxygen. Every time she breathed out it came as a wheeze her chakra was low feeding the baby growing in her stomach she ate poorly refusing the food they brought knowing full well it was poisoned. She feed the lumps of gray to the rats that had showed up as well as the roaches that appeared later and watched as the first rat died others came and soon she had 6 skinny rats trapped in a small net of chakra. Her lip curled in disgust but if she didn't kill and eat them she would die and be food for them so she feed the first rat the food and watched as its scent attracted others for her to capture and eat. Stomach growling Arashia snatched up a rat broke its neck and used the small stone she had sharpened to gut and skin the animal spreading its pelt on the floor downwind.

“Don't worry little one just a few more days.” She patted her stomach gently smiling tenderly. Gazing at the other pelts she had hidden in her prison Arashia clung to the last image she knew to be true because she had real proof growing in her stomach a silver haired man smiling down at her one eye covered by his hiatie-eta the visible eye closed the lower half of his face uncovered as his lips came down to take her own in a deep passionate kiss. She was so caught up in the memory that she failed to notice the appearance of one of her jailors until he was almost on top of her. She had cleaned and eaten all the rats and their pelts where far enough away from her that he didn't notice.

“Arashia-chan you have left your husband behind again its time to go back.” His voice was smooth as silk void of emotion, she whimpered on the floor.

“Look at me.” He ordered she turned her head and meet the spinning Sharingan eyes of one Uchiha Itachi.

 

 

“Ara-chan you awake?” Kakashi waved a hand in front of her face. Once again her mind had slipped away leaving him alone for several long seconds worried about his love. She blinked her eyes a single tear leaked out dribbling down her cheek before he caught it with his thumb and rubbed it away.

“We are going to see Tsunade-sama this is happening more and more often.” His voice was deep with concern and he had wrapped his arms around her. Arashia allowed her self to lean on him answering at the same time.

“Yes your right I want to see the Godamine.” Tears continued to leak from her eyes and she buried her head in his chest breathing in his scent and savoring it.

 

 

 

Konoha Village Oct 10th 6 AM

 

Predawn light filtered through the curtains of Uzumaki Naruto's apartment the ANBU stationed outside the young mans apartment yawned and stretched, eyes widened in alarm as the curtains fluttering in the breeze revealed an empty bed. The dog masked ANBU listened intently for several seconds before leaping into the blonde's apartment through the window a brief search revealed the apartment to be empty of its owner minus his pack and all of his weapons and scrolls in her hands the ANBU held a folded piece of paper addressed to team 7 and the Hokage. Cursing mentally she jumped back out the apart signally to her relief.

“Go get Hatake-san and his team, hurry!” the bird mask nodded and shot off the roof towards the Copy-nin's home.

“Damn boy!” she said shaking her head turning to go to the hokage tower to wake the woman and inform her of her little brothers departure.

 

20 mins later

 

“DAMN BRAT!” Tsunade glared at the note in her hand, again, the dog masked ANBU had given her. Her fist slammed on the desk the legs groaning under the assault,

“Kakashi you BAKA!” She gritted her teeth the Bird masked ANBU had informed her of the rest of team 7's disappearance most likely when Naruto made to leave his companions had been watching him waiting for him to try and she had naively hoped that when it came to that they would talk him out of it, how wrong she was.

“It appears Hokage-sama that Naruto-kun's apartment has been empty since yesterday. I believe he used a Kage Bushin in his stead.” There was respect in the female ANBU's voice at the blonde's enhanced skill level. “He would make an excellent ANBU.”

“If I don't kill the gaki first!” she growled.

“It's the same with the others Hokage-sama. Their homes must have been empty since late yesterday afternoon.” The male ANBU spoke his voice even and professional, “We couldn't be sure though as your orders were to watch Naruto-kun and not his teammates.” He didn't accuse her he was just restating facts.

Clasping her hands in front of her face and resting her elbows on her desk the Godamine Hokage took a moment to imagine a painful punishment for the teen before she gave her orders.

“Bring me Inuzuka Kiba, Rock Lee, Hyuuga Neji, and Nara Shikimaru.” The Godamine sat back in her chair as the two ANBU teleported out of her office to wake the shinobi requested and bring them to her. Tsunade turned in her chair to look out over the just waking village.

“You better stay safe till I find you, baka.” She whispered. It took less then 30 mins for the group to be assembled, 30 mins in which the Blonde Hokage drummed her fingers on her desk a Sake bottle sitting in front of her unused. The fingers stopped when the door was pushed open and first Neji then Rock Lee entered. Kiba Came next in a stumble he glared over his shoulder at the last member of the requested group as the man slouched into the room a bored expression on his face. His brown hair was pulled into a ponytail on top of his head, his dark eyes roamed the room skirting over the Hokage refusing to meet the woman's gaze. She remained silent eyeing them, the Hyuuga and Rock Lee remained unmoving in the tense atmosphere and predictably Kiba fidgeted, much like the Rokudaime Kiba could not remain silent or still for very long. It was Shikamiru's reaction she was looking for, all though to all appearances he presented the calm bored exterior being an exceptional Medic Tsunade could see the tell-tell signs of stress on the young man. `So he told Naruto.' She gritted her teeth, she could blame him they all had a reason to help him without question and the information team 10 garnered would have been impossible to keep secret considering the Yamanaka girl could keep her mouth shut when she spoke to Sakura.

“Well,” she began making them tense, “what are you planning on doing now?” she asked her tone sweet. Kiba swallowed and shifted his feet Rock Lee, if possible, glowed with fire dieing to make a speech about youthful indevears, even Neji gave off the aura of determination, Shikamiru relaxed slightly, apparently he was expecting a violent display.

“Hokage-sama we believe it best to send back up for Naruto-kun's team since they will be facing the remaining faction of Akatsuki.” Shikamiru spoke his tone bored; his hands were stuffed in his pockets.

“And why, Nara-san, would they be facing Any Akatsuki members?” She was going to make him say it since it was partially his and his team's discovery that created this situation.

“Because when my teammates and I returned from our last mission we ran into Naruto-kun,”

“And you just happened to let slip the location of Akatsuki's last known whereabouts and that they had a prisoner.” Her voice remained sweet and for the first time since entered this conversation she could see the sweat forming on his upper lip.

“Hai.” The answer was short and to the point, she couldn't blame him for telling his friend but she could make them all sweat and punish them somewhat for the lack of discretion.

“I wont be sending back up.” This time it was the Hyuuga that lunged at her desk slamming his hands down forcefully and glaring at her.

“He's the Rokudaime would you let him throw his life away like that!” He was shouting at her his Byukugan activated behind him she heard the others shouting similarly with a few threats to leave the village. At that she stood up power gathered in her form and point her finger at them all.

“Sit.Down!” The abrupt silence was unnerving but the killing intent her chakra leaked into the room filling it was enough to forcing them back into chairs once they all were seated she glared icily at them from narrowed eyes as she remained standing.

“This village is my priority and though Naruto is the Rokudaime,” she held up a hand before they could protest, “He and his team are more then capable to handle this.” The stony expression she was getting told her they were not satisfied and as much as she was enjoying watching them squirm and war with the guilt they all were experiencing she knew if she did let them know that back up had already gone they would undoubtedly all leave on their own to follow the Baka.

“Having said that,” she took her seat again stippling her fingers on the desk, “There is a team of ANBU shadowing them as we speak, and you can rest assured they are competent since two are a member of your graduating class.

“Who?” the bewildered question was voiced by Kiba.

 

“Shino-kun I'm glad you could come with me.” Hinita smiled at her teammate, over the years they had gotten closer and she felt better about having a close friend along on this mission not that she didn't trust Sai she just hadn't work with the young man before and this would be the first time.

Shino inclined his head to her and smile behind the collar of his coat, he too was relieved to have someone along he was close to. It hadn't surprised him when Hinita sought him out an hour after midnight as he was getting off guard duty on the main gates and though he hadn't seen Naruto and his group leaving the bugs had passed it on to him that a group of four people left the village over the wall heading north west. She had smiled nervously at him as she waited for his reply to her request at her side had been the dark haired former ROOT's member. He could only guess that the young man felt somewhat left out of team 7 since the Uchiha's return hence why he was with Hinita now chancing after them.

“Hinita-chan.” He answered her simply then resumed his meal listening to the attempt at conversation between Sai and the Hyuuga heiress.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Authors Notes

Oh woe is me I have had a hard time with getting this out its not through lack of trying but it has been until now that I have had the chance to look this over and put it into something vague resembling a plot. SOOOOO very sorry about the late update I don't think this will be near as long as Crossing over probably the same length as the first one Naruto Sister. I can't seem to write anything that is fluffy or sweet so I will stick to what I know best and what has worked so far. And for all those out there worried that I have stopped working on Crossing Over I haven't I assure you. I was watching so Carlos Mencie and the Ideas just started coming then of all things I got distracted so had to read some other Naruto-Sasuke fics and was highly disappointed that one I have been following avidly wont be finished. OH THE TRAGEDY!! But as I am working on my own I will finish!! JA NE!!
