Land of Fire, North;The next day, riverbank.

Hinata finally woke up, she got up with difficulty, she was covered in bruises, it wasn't a surprise, that river has a very violent current and the river has several large rocks in the riverbed, on the way to this place she ended up hitting these rocks a few times, as soon as she managed to get to her knees, she pressed a certain pressure point and vomited all the water she had swallowed, when she felt better she could ration again, she punched the ground in frustration and sad...

HInata:-"... Hanabi !..., damn it !... "

-"... BE FREE FOR BOTH OF US !!!... "

Remembering her sister's words, she calms down and gets up to continue on her way...

Hinata:-"... Hanabi..., I promise I'll save you..."

She walks even though she is in pain, not having asked Sakura to teach her some medical Ninjutsu was costing her, she walks through the woods until she finally finds a road and even sees travelers on it, however, what comes to her mind is a detail that she and Hanabi had forgotten, her eyes... obviously as soon as they saw her they would know that they were Hyuugas, and, they would be persecuted by both Konoha and nations interested in the Byakugan, so she decides to stay hidden in the woods, in the meantime, she checks her backpack, and, fortunately, money and clothes were there, and, food and medicine were enough to save...

A whole day later...

The day came and went, it was time to find a place to sleep, while walking, she noticed a light in the middle of the trees, she goes towards that light and finds a camp of a ninja team of four people, she overhears their conversation and discovers that they were on a cartography mission, she notices that one of them is wearing sunglasses, just what she needed, when they sleep, she sneaks into their camp and steals the Shinobi glasses and a map of the region, soon after she leaves there quickly...

The next day...

Hinata finally finds out where she is, in the northeast of the Land of Fire, very close to the Land of Hot Springs, fortunately there is a village nearby, the " Village of Coal "...

Hinata:-"... Great... "

She puts on her glasses, covers her head with the hood of her blouse and continues down the road...

The coal village is a " ninja village " that was born around a mine, the quotation marks in " ninja village " are because this ninja village is not very conventional, it does not get involved with political issues, matters of large nations, etc..., this village practically only does Rank C & D missions, there ninjas are known as " a jack of all trades who can kill ", this fame is so strong in the village that there the missions are laid out on papers on a board in the middle of the village, literally any Shinobi from any village can go there and take a mission and do it, very useful for Hinata..., after arriving there, she settles in an inn and starts taking some missions...

Days later...

Things were going well for the Hyuuga, she was on a cargo mission to take supplies to a restaurant, until, on the way, she saw people she knew...

-"... Come on Choji !, we're in a hurry !... "

-"... Okay, okay, okay..., calm down Ino... "

-"... Give me a break..., we didn't find anything, not like we were going to turn the corner and find the answer...

-"... Shikamaru is right... "

All of Team 10 was in the village, she quickly hid before they could see her... then she followed them stealthily and listened to their conversation, apparently, rumors were that both Akatsuki and the Jinchuurikis were approaching that region...

Ino:-"... I can't wait to find that damn redhead ! She's going to get me for what she's worth... "

Shikamaru:-"... Give it a rest, she broke your jaw, so what ? She's friends with the Jinchuurikis and attacked you for being on their side... "

Asuma:-"... Forget Shikamaru, she didn't hear a word you said..."

Hinata:-" (... Gaara, ... Fuu, ... Karin..., Naruto-kun... )"

Hinata remembers Karin's story from when they were trapped in the cave, she thinks that maybe they would accept her too, but she would have to convince them that she was an ally now, after the four of them take a good distance, she leaves, finishes the delivery and runs back to the inn and collects her things, then leaves the village after the Jinchuurikis...

Meanwhile, somewhere in the region...

Hidan:-" (... Seriously, if we keep having these meetings all the time, we'll lose the Jinchuurikis and there we go once again, it'll take forever to find them..., seriously, I envy their hiding skills... ) "

Pain:-" (... These meetings are necessary to organize Hidan... ) "

Konan:-" (... So, besides Hidan and Kakuzu, who else is in the area ?... ) "

Kisame:-" (... Well, Itachi and I were also in the area... ) "

Deidara:-" (... I'm also in the area..., with these two freaks here... ) "

Zetsu ( White ):-" (... Hi... ) "

Tobi:-" (... Hi hi... ) "

Pain:-" (... Well, five members ?..., that's good enough... ) "

Konan:-" (... We wish you luck... ) "

After the conversation ended, they all followed after the Jinchuurikis, talking about them...

Yugito:-"... It seems like they already figured out where we're going... "

Fuu:-"... How many do you think are behind us ?... "

Utakata:-"... I guess about 20 or 30..."

Yagura:-"... I wouldn't worry about that, I'd worry about our location..."

Karin:-"... I looked at the map and we're close to the border with the Land of Hot Springs and the Village of Coal..."

Roshi:-"... Sounds good to me..."

Naruto:-" I agree..."

At the same time, the Sound Village found the Jinchuurikis' tracks again and prepared to send their hunters again...

And so several groups and people went to this region: Hinata, the Jinchuurikis, the Akatsuki, the Leaf and the Sound...
