Feeling Grey

Wilted flowers

Sakura stood in front of a large man, a shiver went up her spine that she tried to hide. She had been here for about 5 minutes, her internal clock supplied, watching. No one had moved..

"W-what do you want with me?" Sakura asked, trying not to let her voice shake. "Don't worry little flower, we won't "hurt you." Rasped the man as he started to walk closer to her. The man grabbed her by her chin and raised her face to look up at him.

"You are going to tell me the secrets of your so-called "Sensei". Mocked the Man as he pulled her closer to him. "What secret?!" Cried the girl as she was then shoved to the floor. "Dammit! The secret about the scroll the secret ninjutsu!!" Yelled the man.

"I don't know anything about a secret! And I don't know anything about a scroll!" Exclaimed Sakura. The girl stared at the man's anger shining in her eyes.

"Fine!" Shouted the man, "If you aren't going to tell me about the scroll then you can go back to your team!" "But first..."

Yelling broke out from where the man had taken Sakura a few minutes ago. The boys shared a look. Sadness danced in their eyes as the voices grew louder. They felt terribly useless.

Naruto sat with his sensei's head resting in his lap as he played with the gray-white locks. Sasuke was leaning against the cell wall. Eyes darting between Naruto and the door. The noises had stopped a while ago. Naruto felt the body resting on him shift. He looked down at the man. Sasuke watched as the shifting happened a bit more before two eyes shot open!

Kakashi shot up from his current position, not the best idea considering how his body protested. He quickly looked around his surroundings. He then noticed his genin. Sasuke and Naruto, Wait where's Sakura!?-

Shouting pierced through the room. Kakashi felt himself tense up. He turned to his remaining teammates.

"What's happening to Sakura?" asked Kakashi. Naruto and Sasuke looked at each other then back to there sensei. Sasuke answered, "They're trying to find out about a scroll to take over the land of Fire." Kakashi racked his brain to figure out what scroll they could be after before it hit him. "We need to get out of here." Said Kakashi.

Sasuke and Naruto sat in front of their sensei as he leaned against one of the cell walls. "How are we going to get out of here?.." whispered Naruto. "Don't worry dobe we will escape right, Kakashi sensei?" Whispered Sasuke. " Maa don't worry so much you two we will get out of this." Kakashi replied in a low tone.

Suddenly the cell door slammed open. The guys they all recognized from before shoved Sakura to the group. Before she hit the ground Kakashi leaned up and steadied her.

"If none of you will talk then you can all suffer!" Shouted the man. He glared at the team then closed the cell door and stomped away.

Sakura clung to her sensei. Tears ran down the girl's face. "Shhh, it's gonna be ok Sakura don't worry we will find a way out, promise." Soothes Kakashi.

Loud footsteps echoed off the walls. A dark haired figure walked towards the cell door. Key in hand he unlocks the door and steps in. "I have a deal for you, Copy Ninja." Sneered at the man. Kakashi got to his feet and stood in front of the 3. "What type of deal would this be.?" Questioned Kakashi.

"SENSEI YOU CAN'T DO THIS PLEASE!!" Yelled Naruto. The boy got yanked to his feet. Sasuke and Sakura behind him as their captures dragged them out of the cell. Behind them Kakashi was being chained up with metal chains. They wrapped around his arms and legs. Shoving the ninjas forward the genin they were then stabbed with a needle. The world around them went dark. The last thing they saw was their sensei's masked face.

Light showed all around. Trees rose to meet the sky. The blue sky was cloudless. Tall Oak and Pines were all around. The Sun glared at the ground. The air was sticky and with it it brought the feeling of sweat. The leaves rusted. A breeze blew through them. Shifting the leaves from side to side.

It was only a dream.

Of course it was.

None of this is real.

Kakashi's eyes shot open as he tried to figure out where he was. A low groan escaped his lips as his vision swam. Taking a minute to get used to the feeling , Kakashi looked around. The room was dark, it held a chill in the air that reached his bones. Feeling himself shiver, He twisting his arms, noticing the chains on them from earlier.

"Shit."

A light breeze was felt on his skin as he tried to open his eyes. Yellow hair being blown away from his face. Naruto snapped open his eyes and found himself sitting by an old tree. Sasuke and Sakura were on either side of him, still what seemed to be fast asleep. He couldn't remember anything... Wait! "Kakashi sensei!" Shouted Naruto. Jerking around he tried to find the silver haired man but he couldn't see him anywhere. They were stuck in a forest without their Sensei! "Sasuke Saukra!, you need to walk up please!" Begged Naruto. The two just sat there slumped. Naruto felt tears prick at his eyes. Anger simmered as he tried to calm down. "Why did this have to happen to us!? What did we do to deserve this!? He cried out. Tears slid down his whisker marked cheeks. "I wanna go home, I just want to be safe with my team again.." whispered the boy.

The sun shone brightly as the team was split up. It shone on as a boy cried out for his family. It shone while a silver haired man was forced to keep secrets. The sun shone on. Then a cloud covered it. The sun was gone. The storm is coming. And it will tear everything down in its path.
