Once it was noon we headed off toward the cafe leorio was talking about. We made it to the front door, seeing him leaning against the building.
"Sorry Makota.... We haven't been able to get ahold of him yet.."
"Oh.." Was all I said.
"I'll see you tomorrow okay, we'll keep trying. He said he would be here so don't worry."
"Right... thank you."

It was time for the auction to start. We headed to the building to start our mission. We placed the ear pieces into our ears and made sure we could hear each other. Once that was settled we scattered, taking our places around the building.
I stood on top of the roof next to the auction house watching closely at the passing pedestrians. A lot of mafia bosses were in there, which is why they hired so many bodyguards on the inside and out.

"Makota! Sakura! Something's happening inside get down here now!" Kakashi order.
I used my chakra in my feet to carry me down the building, to the front of the building where Kakashi was.
"What's going on?" I panted.
I saw a bunch men running into the building.
"Let go, someone has penetrated the inside!"
We followed Kakashi inside behind the other men. They all pulled out their weapons, in the auction room where all the buyer were supposed be, was empty. No sign of any person, not even chairs or bags were anywhere in the room.

"What's going on?" Sakura asked.
"Someone is after the merchandise." He stated.
We took off to the basement where it was all kept. Once we arrived we saw that the safe was empty.
"Lets go back out, they shouldn't have gotten far, they're thieves... good ones for that matter... it could be them." He said looking at me.
I nodded, even though my heart was pounding and my blood boiled I kept my demeanor.

We rushed outside, sprinting off, jumping from building to building looking for any sign.
"Anything?" Kakashi asked though the ear pierce.
"No." I answered.
"No- wait! There's an air balloon! That has to be them!" Sakura exclaimed.
"Sakura inform the others and stay at the building!"
"Got it!" She answered him.
"Makota you and I need to follow closely behind. There should be some who have already left. If we go now we should be able to catch them."
"Right."
I met up with him and we took off in the direction of the hot air balloon.

"Makota... it's no doubt that it's the troupe. Our best action is to stay in the shadows and observe them. Our mission was to protect the items and the mafia bosses, not the phantom troupe."
"I understand Kakashi sensei."

We saw the air balloon drop down a few miles ahead. Once we reached the area to where they had landed, we saw the men who left before were already crowded around one man. He was huge, he stood tall, massively hulking. He alone took out the 30 or 40 men standing around. They couldn't even use their weapons to protect themselves. He was so much stronger than anyone there, we saw the headlights from the other cars pulling up below us. The men rushed out of the vehicles toward the man. I looked over and saw the others from the group. There were seven of them... sitting around playing cards. They seem to trust in their teammates abilities so much they don't even look like they are waiting to step in.

All the men that tried going up against him were dead... he didn't even have a scratch on him.
"Kakashi... this guy... he.."
"I know... he's strong."
"More then that..."
"Makota... do you know anything about the shadow beasts?"
"Huh, no?" I shook my head.
"I sense them... watch closely."

I looked over to see three weird looking guys walking towards the massive man.
One of the shadow beast came up though the ground punching him, knocking him back a little. But the punch he returned to the beast was much stronger, it caused an explosion into the ground creating a massive hole about 10 feet deep, killing the ground beast.
