We were ready, I put on a nice looking tux with a bit of red flair on it, and Sarada had on this gorgeous blood red dress. Seeing her in that outfit had my heart beating out of my chest, when did she get so pretty?
And it wasn't only the fact that she was beautiful, it was something else about her, she had an air of elegance in her look that kept me wanting to look over at her. Wait, nononono I can't like Sarada like that can I?

I brushed that thought off, now's not the time for things like that, we have to focus.

Knuckle went over the plan with us a few times. On the surface, me and Sarada were going to simply walk in, buy tickets and enjoy the show, but in reality our job was crowd control. Knuckle had guessed that if things went wrong the people would get really riled up and so we couldn't let anyone leave. No one in, and no one out once we sat down.

Ren was going to be on stage next to our mind controlled announcer friend, he also was playing the crowd control role incase things got bad. Naomi and Nobuo were behind the curtains controlling the announcer, and Knuckle would be in the back grabbing all the loot. It was a decent enough plan.

Nothing left to do but act, Knuckle dismissed us all to our roles. We knew it would take a while for everyone else to get situated so me and Sarada grabbed a couple drinks at the bar before sitting down.

After order our drinks, this short stubby guy walked up to us. He kinda reminded me of a pig. He pulled up a chair next to Sarada and rudely demanded for a drink. What an asshole.

He must have caught me glaring because turned in our direction and said "What're you two little shits looking at huh?"

"A walking, talking, midlife crisis apparently..." Sarada mumbled

"Huh? You being smart with me little girl?!" The man stood up and grabbed Sarada's wrist making her drop her drink.

I acted on impulse, before I knew it my hand was around his fat neck holding him in the air. "Hands to yourself creep, next time you touch this woman I'll gut you like a fish."

He was struggling to breathe, my hands were around his neck tightly.

"Boruto..." Sarada patted me on my back, "I'm fine, you're causing a scene."

She was right, everyone in the bar was looking over at us. I dropped the guy and watched as he scrambled away tripping over his own feet. On his way out I heard him say something along the lines of "You'll regret this boy, no one embarrasses a don."

I fixed myself and put my arm out for Sarada, she grabbed it and we walked out of the bar with multiple guest staring at us. I still didn't feel bad.

We had found some seats at the very back corner near the entrance way where two guys were seated, I told them to scram and they left quickly finding other seats. After a short while, Ren and the announcer had walked onto the stage, signaling us to close the doors. I had placed a shadow clone on the other side of the door making sure no one else could enter.

"Welcome ladies and gentlemen to Kirigakure's annual auction! We thank you all for coming!" The announcer says. "Mr... 'Rem?' Please bring out our first item!"

Ren, or should I say Rem(real covert btw) went to the back and wheeled out a cart holding a three pronged kunai. "Ahem, here we have the famous thunder god kunai, wielded by the hidden leafs 4th Hokage."

The crowd erupted with chanting, I swear almost everyone hands went up, some holding two finger, 3 fingers, or just a thumb.

"So to bid you just have to put your thumb up like this huh..." I mumble to myself stupidly holding up a thumb

"6 million to the blonde up in row A!" The announcer exclaims."

"BORUTO YOU IDIOT!!" Sarada yells

Luckily someone else had bid higher so we didn't have to pay. Not that that was ever gonna happen.

After a mini bidding war, the announcer had given it to this kid down at the very first row. His parents must be richhhh.

I was enjoying the show quite a bit before eventually Knuckle had given the signal that he was done. At that moment, Ren ripped off his sleeve revealing the massive gun arm he had. The crowd was scared everyone trying to scramble for the door but me and Sarada quickly got infront of it blocking them in. "Sorry folks but you can't leave just yet, please return to your seats NOW." I order, everyone cautiously returned to their seats.

Knuckle came out from behind the curtain wheeling a cart full of bags, him and Ren grabbed all the bags and darted towards the door, we let them pass and tell the hostages to count to 1000 before leaving. Oh and I made sure to grab that kunai, I mean it technically belonged to my family anyways you know.

We catch up to Knuckle and Ren, Nobuo had cut the power to the building in order for us to escape stealthily. This is going really well, I thought to myself. Why did I have to jinx it.

We had stepped outside thinking we were home free but just as our feet touched the ground, a void had appeared. We had stepped into a teleportation jutsu trap. But who could've set it? No okey sensors the hostages knew what was going on.

We ended up in a wasteland, seemingly miles away from the auction house.

"Is everyone alright!?" Knuckle asked

"Yeah everyone's fine boss, you got the loot?" Naomi responded

"Yeah yeah it's all here, where's Nobuo?"

"Right here!" Yelled a third party

Out came this huge guy, he had to be atleast 10 feet tall, he wore a tattered gi and one of his hands looked like it was made of literal steel, like a gauntlet. In that hand he was holding... a head, the head of Nobuo!

"You two, blondie and the nerd girl!" The man pointed at me and Sarada. "You disrespected my boss earlier, he don't take to kindly to disrespect"

He must've been talking about that little guy at the bar.

"Your boss had it coming!"

"Yeah well, I don't doubt that but nonetheless he wants you two dead. You should know this isn't personal though."

Just then he charged us, me and Sarada dodged it just in time but he managed to get his hands around Naomi's neck. "NOOOOO!" Yelled Knuckle.

There was nothing we could do for her, it wasn't long before we heard that blood curtailing snap.

This is my fault, isn't it.
