Late the next morning we arrived outside the Hidden Sand. Two men were waiting for us as we approached the entrance of the village.

"We've been waiting for you," one of them said.

The other scanned our group before his eyes landed on Temari. "Lady Temari, thank goodness you're with them. Follow us."

The two men started jogging in the direction of town, and as we followed them they gave us more information on the situation at hand.

"What?" Temari said, her voice cracking. "They got Kankuro too?"

One of the men nodded their head. "Yes, Master Kankuro went after the men who captured the Kazekage and was poisoned in the process. We haven't been able to find anything that works as an antidote."

"Damn it," Temari cursed under her breath.

"Don't worry, Temari," Sakura said as she sped up to stand next to her. "Let Jin and I take a look at him before you start thinking the worst."

Temari nodded and the group of us stayed quiet until we reached the infirmary where Kankuro was being treated.

As soon as her eyes landed on her brother, Temari rushed to his side.

The medical nin surrounding his bed didn't hesitate to hand over Kankuro's charts to Jin and Sakura. It was almost like all medical ninja had an unspoken understanding of what to do in a high-stress situation like this. It was amazing to watch, but my amazement was short lived.

"Damn you! Prepare to defend yourself or die!"

I spun around to see an elderly woman charging at Kakashi. Her wrinkled face was pulled back in a viscous sneer and she moved incredibly fast in spite of her obvious age.

Two clones of Naruto appeared to block Kakashi, but in spite of his own age, the woman was still able to force one of the clones to puff out of existence. She easily defended herself from Naruto's attack and jumped back in a fighting stance.

"Why would you attack Kakashi Sensei? You wrinkly old prune!"

"Naruto!" I snapped.

His other clones disappeared and Naruto mirrored the old woman's stance.

"I haven't forgotten what you did and I've waited for this day a long time. The day I reap vengeance on you, White Fang of the leaf! For what you did to my son!"

Kakashi raised his hands up in surrender. "No no no, you see I—"

"That's enough talk!"

The woman raised her arms in what I assumed was going to be an attack, but another elderly man stepped forward to stop her.

"Take a closer look at the man, Chiyo. It's true there is a resemblance, but this one is not the White Fang. Besides, you know that the White Fang of the leaf died long ago."

Kakashi gave the woman a small wave, but I could tell the whole situation made him uncomfortable.

"Well, never mind," the old women said.

Before Kakashi or Naruto had the chance to speak a word, Kankuro began to groan in pain.

"Listen, it'll be best if everyone clears out so that we can take a closer look at him," Sakura said.

I watched as Jin took off the fabric cuffs he wore on his arms and laid them to the side before focussing on Kankuro. It was strange to see him so serious. He was definitely the goofball out of the three boys on my team, but seeing him like this also made me feel a sense of pride.
