Return of The Atatsuki

[Noah Hyuga]

*Noah awoke suddenly to a someone stairing him straight in the face. Noah jumped throwing off the instruder and pulled a kunai to the intruders throat. It was Kakashi.*
Noah - What the hell is wrong with you!! You scared the crap out of me!

Kakashi - well aren't we fiesty. Lady Tsunade asked me to come get you. She has a special assignment for you. But you might want to get dressed first.

Noah - *he stood up and relized he was still in his underwear* yikes! *He ran into his closet and came out black pants and a black jounin vest with a light grey long sleeve underneath and he combed his hair down* Alright. Lets go.

*Kakashi and Noah headed straight for the Hokages office and entered through the window*

Tsunade - Can't you two ever just use the door?! *she looked irritated*

Noah - Sorry. This was faster. What is it lady tsunade? *He went in front of her desk and bowed*

Tsunade - We've recieved word via messenger bird from the Village Hidden in the Flames that Akatsuki members have been spotted again. It appears some new people are bringing it back.

Noah - What?! Who?!

Tsunade - We don't know, but we're not taking any chances. This is an S - rank mission. I'm making you squad leader. Take as many high-ranking shinobi with you as you want. I'll even sacrifice some anbu for you. Now go and get some people to go and stock up for the trip.

Noah - Yes Lady Tsunade! *Noah dashed out the window. He headed back to his inn and stocked up on supplies for himself and then went looking for everyone else. He would take as many as he could get.*

[Chronos]

Itasuske, not having any duties as Chronos at this time, was walking around, looking for Nakita. He didn't mind that she went by herself, she could hold her own, but it annoyed him to no end when she didn't tell him about it. He noticed that there were new items inside the weapon shop, and decided to walk inside.

[Noah Hyuga]

*Noah then realized he didn't have any kunais. He decided to get some more at the shop. As he walked he looked to his left slightly as he entered and walking down the street was a woman with beautiful long ligh purple hair in all black. This caused him to run right into the back of Itatsuke* Oops! Sorry Sir! *stares blankly for a few seconds.* Itatsuke!

(Well, looks like we can just post our entrances, right? I'll use Nabuka for this.)

Having heard some info on Akatsuki members being sighted in the Village hidden in the Flames, Nabuka decided to investigate. He left the little village he found in the Land of Fire, and decided to head to Konoha first.

[Noah Hyuga]

(Yeah you're entrance works and i'll find some way of running into you. lol. "literally" In itatsuke's case.)

[Chronos]

Itasuske barely noticed that someone had bumped into him. "Oh, Noah, what are you doing here? I heard that you made anbu. Is that true? I would but, well, i have a much more important office to fill. By the way, have you seen Nakita?"

[Noah Hyuga]

*Noah shook his head and came back to his senses* No I haven't....sorry, but i do need your help. Tsunade has given me explicit permission to take whatever high-ranking shinobi i need. *Noah leaned up to Itatsuke's ear* Someone has started up the Atatsuki again...

[delta1z2]

(okay wait. Akatsuki or Atatsuki? You're confusing me! )

[Chronos]

(We take it as the same difference. We all know who they are, but there has been confusion in the name. Pretty much if it starts with Ata or Aka and ends with a ki, we all think of the same group. Yeah, we're dumb that way. lol)

"Well, Noah, seeing as how you have authority to take any ninja, it seems i'm obliged to take the job." He quickly stopped looking at the weapons, and turned to Noah. "We have faced much worse in the past, and I think that someone who means harm to others is a man who is out of his time. Alright, were to next? you are the leader, right?"

[Noah Hyuga]

*Noah blinked. He had been confused and perplexed by Itatsuke on many an occasion, but now he was just completely lost, but he did understand that Itatsuke was comming.*

Yeah, lets see if we can find some other people to go...

*Noah quickly purchased some kunais and walked out of the shop. He was putting his kunais in his "Bag of goodies" when he again ran into someone. Noah looked and saw she had fallen to the ground. It was the same girl he had seen not moments before. She was gorgeous...he could help, but stare for a little, she was in a little black dress with what looked like small red-markings, then he came to his senses.*

I'm sorry! Are you okay?! * He asked helping her up*

?? - Oh yes i'm fine Noah.

Noah - *slightly taken aback* Do i know you?

?? - Oh! You dont remember me? *she flashed her headband*

Noah - Saline?! from the chunin exams!?

Saline - Yeup! *she loved those eyes of his.....the were so cold and yet...warm and welcoming at the same time* Well....i gotta go. So i'll see ya later!

Noah - yeah...*Noah shook himself out of the trance he was in and started walking towards the edge of the village* Not a word Itatsuke!

[Chronos]

Itasuske stood there, not saying anything, but now had a new tactic if he wanted to distract noah for any reason. "So, anything else you want to talk about? You likeing a girl from the village hidden in the flames is of little concequence to me, for I already have a wife, remember? Anyway, who else are we going to recruit?"

[Noah Hyuga]

*Noah shook it off*

Well, I think it would be more efficient for the village if just the two of us went for now and scouted out the village and searching for clues. If we determine the situation too dangerous we shall retreat and come back with reinforcements.

*It had been a couple years since they had defeated the Taken and Noah had already been given the title of Legendary Sanin along with Itatsuke, who had taken the title, but not embraced it (so was his nature), and Nakita. We were the new sanin and Twilight himself had made it to Commander-in-chief of the Anbu black ops with Kaori at his side as Liutenant. Mariah had dissapeared. No one knew what had happened to her. Noah now had had many missions with Sakura, Neji, Hinata, Kiba, Ino, and much to his dismay, Sasuke and Naruto. Noah however wasn't interested in being a shinobi full time. He wanted to open up his own tavern in town, but lacked the money to do so, so for now he took w/e mission he could get and on occasion gambled the legendary sucker Lady Tsunade out of her cash. It had been an interesting 2 years.*

Well, whaddaya think Itatsuke?

[Chronos]

"Hey. your the boss, you recruited me, remeber? It's a sound plan. and I will follow."

(so we can provide a little backstory, huh?) *Itasuske in the last two years, had spent most of his time in obscurity with his wife and family. Sure, his children were the top unsude their respective Ninja classes, but other than that, no one knew what the Akira's were doing at any one particular moment.

[delta1z2]

Nabuka had arrived in the Leaf Village in only minutes. He was slowing down, but then again, rumors weren't that important. After being let in at the front gate, he started walking around the village looking for a Ramen shop. Something cheap but still tasted good.

For years, Nabuka has been serving a syndicate with no known name. He's been an assassin for them, his water style attacks perfect for killing people fast. Right at the moment, he's on break. But he's being watched. As long as he doesn't try to dig up info on the syndicate, he won't have to shed unnecessary blood.

As Nabuka was walking along, he saw a strange pair: One guy with Byukugan, and one who only had one Byukugan. The things you'll see in these ninja villages.

(He's not wearing a head band right now, but he is wearing a smile.)

[Chronos]

"hey, Noah, you seen that guy around here? It seems we have new customers here in the leaf." He kept walking, but wanted to keep a eye on the other man. he seemed familiar, but he just coulden't plsce here he hsd seen the man before.
