Drunken Space Ninjutsu

Chapter 5

"Then we were just spotted"

Beside him, Minato could just feel Fugaku and the Commanders reactions.
Fugaku was probably smirking, thinking how how the ANBU had failed their silent recon. He heard the almost inaudible sigh that escaped the ANBU leaders lips, behind the white mask.

He could swear that the two rivals were keeping score, or something.

"Our cover is blown. Send out the riot teams," he sighed.
That was surely going to inflate the Uchiha's clan head ego, even if it was part of Shikaku's plan.

"With pleasure, Hokage-sama," said Fugaku, in a not-so-stoic tone that only confirmed Minato's worries.

'Note to self: really find a way to improve the situation with the Uchiha's clan isolation. Maybe interacting with the village they'll get better,'  thought the blond Hokage.

"All riot teams, breach and storm in ten seconds. Repeat, breach and storm in ten seconds," said Fugaku's voice on the radio.

"Blaze team, a target is just on the other side of your entry point. Expect immediate resistance," added Masahiro's voice.

"Understood sir, we're going in," confirmed in his earpiece the leader of Team Blaze, signalling to his closest subordinate to proceed.

The Uchiha quickly planted a specialised explosive tag on the wall as the others leaned to the side of it, away from the blast zone.
Once he was done, he joined them and at the last of the ten seconds, he set off the tag.

The explosive did it's job, tearing a passage through the wall and raising a cloud of debris and dust.

Blaze Team stormed in, ready to take out the intruder quickly with their superior numbers and the element of surprise.

At least, that was the plan. Instead, they stopped dead in their tracks once they got inside, surprised by the sight in front of them.

They had breached the wall of a luxurious bathrooms, little barren of furniture but still luxurious anyway. In front of them stood a dark-haired beauty, practically naked, who had been busy trying to make the shower work until they'd blown up the wall.
She stood there, hand still on the not-functioning shower valve, eyes wide like a deer caught in the headlights.

Wait, her eyes...

'She's a Hyuuga? Why is a Hyuuga here and ... is Asuko bleeding from the nose?'

Nobody moved for several seconds, even when the echoes of the other teams blazing entries reached them.

Then the girl finally reacted how any girl caught like that in front of five unknown males would have done.

She started screaming.

The Fire Team was in even before the rubber started to settle on the floor.

Running between the empty rooms, the team leader wanted to use the advantage of surprise before the enemy could react and organise a defence. They stopped only once to open each door, leaving quickly once the room was called clear.

'Nobody's here? Masahiro told us there were lots of chakra signatures on this floor. Where are they?'

The next door was opened by the impatient team leader with a kick so strong it flew off its hinges.

The team entered like before, weapons in hand, only to be greeted by what was the opposite of a prepared enemy ready for a fight.

Knelt by the side of a toilet was a young man with brown, spiky hair, who was sporting the marks of Inuzuka clan on his face.
And he was puking his guts out.
