Kuroraka stared out towards the east, his entire body stiffening, the pawns had been killed, he knew they hadn’t been sufficient, but his master had said it wouldn’t matter…his body twitched and winced, flat black eyes flashing bright green, one hand going up to finger the scarring seal right under his throat, another shudder broke out over his flesh before the seal flashed and his back stiffened flat eyes moved around to gaze at the another missing nin.

“Inform Kabuto-sama they are coming.” He said his voice rough. The nin nodded before disappearing in a whirl of wind.

Kankuro paced the Kazekage office, his face paint fresh on his skin, his puppets properly prepared for battle. He hadn’t heard from anybody about his brothers whereabouts since the letter from Temari, and it wasn’t as if he could leave, with his brother and sister gone, he was forced into the Kazekage position by default. The door opened suddenly and the man jerked his head towards it halting on the spot,

“Kankuro-sama, we have heard news that Gaara-sama has breeched the outskirts—it seems that the Uchiha’s hideaway was to south just beneath our surveillance…we do not know if the Hokage-sama is still alive or not.” Kankuro crossed his arms, his eyes narrowed in thought as they focused on the other man as he gave the report. The shinobi at the doorway waited for Kankuro to respond. The puppet manipulator groaned slightly, politics and leading was not his thing…he was a fighter, plain and simple.

“Has there been any news from Konoha?” He asked finally,

“Only that Tsunade-sama has taken a temporary place as Hokage, and that she will be sending her strongest Shinobi to help in the search, she requests that the borders let her Shinobi to pass without hindrance.” Replied the young ninja.

“Of course, Let them pass, if I hear of anyone stopping their progress I will personally take care of them.” His threat caused the younger shinobi to gulp,

“Yes Kankuro-s-sama.” He stammered closing the door as he was dismissed. The ninja, let out a suffering, agitated sigh. He couldn’t just stay out of the way; this was a fight he needed to be in…. he couldn’t stand the stuffy office…how his brother ever could boggled Kankuro’s mind.....there was another knock at the door and he grunted and looked up to see the same face poking in,

“Another messenger has arrived from the land of waves, along with Temari-sama—”

“Oh just let me in I don’t need to be announced for my own brother!” The door was slammed open and the blonde women gave one glare towards the younger man before strolling in handing the scroll to her brother,

“Rock, Wave and Cloud are all sending Shinobi to help in the search.” She said, gesturing to the scroll, “And you’re going to take them, I know you’ve been itching to find Gaara.” She said yanking the scroll from her brothers hand, Kankuro stared at her then smirked.

“Finally.” He muttered shucking the two large rolls on his back that held his deadly puppets,

“Meet them at the borders.” She barked, but already Kankuro had disappeared from out of the main open windows of the circular room. Temari softened her stance, giving one worried glanced towards where her brother disappeared before looking at the door,

“Temari-sama—”

“Go to the council immediately and inform them of Kankuro’s departure.” She rapped watching as the chuunin fled from her presence. She released a low sigh at his departure, Gaara being gone had caused such instability within the council and the village itself. Some of the Elders had even gone as far as to proclaim that Konoha had been the cause of this and all treatise should be cut immediately, luckily Kankuro was able to threaten them all into reclaiming those views. The sun grew hotter over the buildings and waking city. Temari looked to the southwest, her lips tightening.

Digging his fingers into the thick blond locks Sasuke pushed himself harder into the other man, his mouth sliding wetly, his tongue shoving past the still hesitating lips. Naruto’s closed eyes tightened as the onslaught of emotions spun through his mind, he was dizzy with pain and anger, but the need to pull the familiar man back was strong too. His rigid body slowly began relaxing into the kiss until a flash of familiar chakra barely noticeable flitted right through his spine. Gaara. Yanking away, the blond struggled against Sasuke’s grip.

“You’re not going anywhere.” The raven-haired shinobi growled shoving him brutally back against the wall, his mouth connecting to the blonds like he needed it to sustain life. Gasping, the tongue thrust itself past his own, Naruto shuddered at the feeling but he brought a knee up to gut the other man who barely had a chance to yank away. Wiping the side of his mouth, Naruto eyes were focused solely on him as he gasped a bit, his eyes narrowed on the raven-headed man before him, Sasuke jerked slightly suddenly feeling just the barest hints of powerful chakra,

“Aaah. I see. You’re new lover is on his way, what a disappointment it would be for him if I kept you here. I’ll just have to kill him.” Mused Sasuke, Naruto lounged forward at the words, everything burned, his chakra wasn’t working, but the mention of Sasuke killing Gaara caused more then anger to fill his body, it enraged him and that anger curled red hot through his belly easily fueled by the demon within his body.

“DON’T YOU DARE TOUCH HIM!!” He roared, slamming a fist into the chest, and then swinging a foot around to catch the other man in a powerful kick. Sasuke grabbed his ankle and flipped him so he landed on his back driving all air from Naruto body, his Sharigon whirled in his eyes and he whipped a kunai out ramming it into one hand pinning it to the ground and he grabbed the thick blond hair in one hand ignoring the gasping mouth.

“Sabaku no Gaara will be killed, and in fact I should kill Hyuuga Neji as well…You are mine and no one touches you.” He hissed his red eyes narrowed in anger, Naruto struggled to breathe, and tried to move, but his body just wouldn’t respond,

“…I don’t...belong to anyone.” His fingers from his free hand clawed at the ground, while he tried to pull his other hand from the blade, but his movements only drove the kunai deeper, slicing through skin, tendons and bone. Sasuke stared at him before his eyes narrowed,

“You have always belonged to me.” He snarled before standing up suddenly at the knock at the door. Naruto gasped as he was let go and gulped, Sasuke approached the door and his body shimmered briefly, the flare of Sharigan charka flashing through the room as the door opened. A young ninja slid in, the flat eyes landing on Naruto for a second before turning listlessly to the raven-headed master.

“Kabuto-sama, nins from the other villages are approaching fast, Sabaku no Gaara is among them” He said softly. Sasuke nodded once before dismissing him with a flick of his eyes. The young ninja backed away with a bow and left.

Naruto struggled upward and leaned over tugging the kunai from his hand wincing visibly, the wound bled out fast and hard and the Hokage bit his bottom lip in pain.

“Hiding yourself? Kind of low for you.” He snarled, tossing the blade to the side, Sasuke glanced at him,

“Put something on that wound or it will bleed out.” He replied before he slipped from the room, the door closing behind him.

“Wait! Bastard!” Naruto shouted trying to struggle up but he only managed it a few feet before his body crumpled to the ground, he was loosing blood fast, yanking a piece of cloth hurriedly from his already ripped robes tying it around his hand his eyes closing tightly. Was he that weak that he could fall under the voice again, those lips again? His fingers tightened and his blood stained the cloth.

“Damnitdamnitdamnit!” He cursed repeatedly with a choked cry; his body shuddered with a mixture of pain and anger.

“Your men are ready correct?” A voice asked in the coming darkness, the shinobi’s in the area nodded once and in seconds the disappeared into the trees,

“We will reach our destination within a day and a night. We stop for nothing.”
