"Just run!" I yelled towards the others as we ran away from Kisame and Itachi. "Um, (Y/N) there is a sand wall coming towards us." Kiba says as he looks up at the growing brown wall coming towards us as we run. "Hinata can you see a cave?" Shino yelled out as I threw a knife to block the oncoming ones. One struck me in the arm as I blocked the hidden one that was behind another knife I blocked. "Found one." Hinata yelled and pointed towards the wall of sand and in the distance, you could see the cave at the beginning of the sand wall coming towards us. "We won't make it." Shino said as he turned towards the two men coming for us. I closed my eyes and said, "Start running towards it. I can make an entry point through the sand for a little bit so let's go.". As I opened my eyes they turned to a clear blue as a gust of wind circled around me. We all started to run once we got caught in the sand I sent a gust of wind leading to the cave. Hinata made it first, then Kiba. Shino was right in front of me but I had a feeling and I pushed Shino a little and...

"Wake up (Y/N)!" Kiba yelled into my tent as I shot up from the yelling. "Kiba." I groaned out. "We will be heading out in 10. Get ready." Kiba said as he shut the tent and walked away. I rub my face and groaned. That was a weird dream last night. I stood up and got dressed. As I opened the tent everything was already taken down and packed away. "Sorry I slept in." I said as I start to take my tent down. I still couldn't shake the bad feeling I had from yesterday and the dream didn't help at all. "It is okay let's go after you get done with the tent." I was rolling up the tent when Hinata came into view. "All clear we should get going again." Hinata said. I shoved the tent into my backpack and nodded my head as we began on the road again. We are in the same formation from yesterday Hinata and me in front and Kiba and Shino in the back. "So are you excited another day and a half you will see Kankuro?" Hinata asked after a couple of minutes of walking. "I will be happy to see him again." I said as a smile graced my lips. "How long will we be in Suna?" Hinata asked as she turned towards Shino. "Should be a month if we need to stay longer we can we would just need to inform the Hokage." Shino said as he turned around and looked at the road behind us. We all stopped and looked at the road as well. "I think we are being followed." Shino whispered. Crap.

Kisame Point

"Where did you get the fish?" Itachi asked me as I awoke. "A little girl got lost and in exchange for help out of the forest she gave me two fish." I said as I stood up. Itachi glared and nodded as he stood up as well. "We should be heading out." He said as he made his way out of the forest. I was already packed and followed. "What did the girl look like?" Itachi asked, his voice sounded curious. "Well she was pretty small, her eyes were a (E/C) color and her hair was (H/L) and the color was (H/C). She was cute too." I said and smiled not used to this side of him. He seemed to be in deep thought as we continued. When we got to the road he asked "What was her name?". "Aimi. Why?" I asked now getting curious why he is asking so much. Itachi face changed to shock. "We need to find her." He said as he turned around. "Why?" I ask as I pointed to the direction she went last night. "Because her name is (Y/N). The one Pain wants." He says as he walked down the path I pointed as I stood there in shock as I couldn't tell if she was a normal kid or a killer. Her smiling face popped in my head as the last thing she said ran through my head "You're not a demon, you're my hero, Kisame!".

(Y/N) point

'Run!' was all I wanted to yell when Shino said he thinks we are being followed. I knew his cue was to keep going without looking like we knew. I looked at Hinata and she was shaking a little knowing that we might be attacked soon. "Hinata, how is Neji doing?" I ask trying to get her mind off of the danger that we might be getting into. "He is doing good. He is home now and feeling much better. Thank you again for saving him." I smiled and nodded. "We should pick up the pace we are falling behind schedule." Shino said. We all nodded and jumped into the trees and ran through the treetops. About five hours later we still hadn't taken a break and I know that Hinata was getting tired. "Shino, we should take a break for five minutes. We are almost to the border and we will make it in a couple more hours." I suggested as I slowed my pace. Shino thought about it and said, "There is a tea shop coming up we will stop there." I nodded and went faster but making sure I was still with everyone. Most likely the people that are following us are for me. "I see the Tea shop!" Hinata yelled out as she headed out of the forest. The shop came into view and we all went in to get something to drink. My stomach growled as I smelt the food within the shop. "Someone is hungry." The waitress said as she sat us. "Something small please." Was all I said as I sat down and kept an eye on the door. Shino took out a map and sat it down on the table. "We are here and I want to be at the border before nightfall." Shino said as he pointed to the map. "If we keep the pace up we should get there way before sunset. We should set up the tents on the border of the sand." I said as I took a sip of water. "If we make it before nightfall I want to travel in the sand for a little." Shino said. "No, the sand is unpredictable if we camp in the sand we can be caught in a sand storm." I said. "We will talk about it when we get there then." Shino said as the waitress set down a plate of steamed buns. After we ate we took off again. The whole time we were traveling I felt two chakra signatures following us. I knew I needed to protect my team if they are after me.

Finally, we made it to the border of the sand and we had a little bit of sunlight left. "Let's set up camp now." I said as me and Shino started arguing about it. "No, we continue." He said. Hinata was setting up a tent as we argue and Kiba was keeping an eye out. We no longer felt anyone following us but we still wanted to make sure no one was going to attack us. Shino looked at Hinata as she was about down setting up the second tent. "Well fine if the tents are set then fine." Shino sighed in defeat. Kiba sat down next to Hinata as she just sat down from finishing the tents. I smiled knowing this was a smart idea. My smile disappeared as I throw a knife hitting another one heading towards Shino. The other three stood up and took a defensive stance. "We know you were following us all day, why don't you show yourself." I said as I threw up my knife and caught it. Next thing I know I see Kisame stepping out of a bush with a small grin on his face. "So Aimi, you want to tell me the truth." Kisame said as Itachi stepped out of the bush. I kept my calm face but I was freaking out on the inside. "I see you met my lovely brother." I said as I started to signaled the others to start running. "What?" Kisame asked looking at the both of us. Shino was getting his bugs ready, Hinata already activated her byakugan, and Kiba was in an attack move ready to strike at any moment. "She is messing with you. Let's just take her and get out of here." Itachi said as he stepped forward at the very same time I threw a knife at his feet. As he was distracted I punched the ground, cracks spread out away from my hand and the ground started to separate from itself. The next thing the two men saw was us running through the sand to get away from them.

We just need to run. Get away from them. I knife grazed my arm a little as it drew blood and hit the ground next to me. This was my dream. It is turning into reality. I thought about what the next thing that happened in my dream was. A sandstorm. "Hinata, find a cave for us to hide in please." I yell as I turn around to face the two men behind us. "Like that will help us hide from them. Really smart (Y/N)." Kiba said sarcastically. "Just do it!" I yell as I hit more knives away from the team. Shino stood next to me to help me with the many knives being thrown at us. "Do you know what you're doing?" Shino asked. "I had this dream last night. It is playing out just like it, and the next thing that happened is a sand storm. It is the best and worst thing at this time." I said as I ran towards the two men and my eyes changed to an orange color. I jumped the moment I got close to them and with the pulse hitting the ground at the same time I landed, sand was flying towards them. They were covered in sand. I ran toward Hinata and said, "I bought us some time, did you find anything?". "I did find something but there is this big wall coming towards us it's weird I can't figure out what it is." Hinata said. I looked back to see Itachi throwing more knives. I pulled out five knives and threw them to counter them, but there weren't five knives there were seven. I pushed Hinata out of the way as one knife hit me in the arm and another one in the shoulder chest area. "No time to figure it out just run!" I yelled out as I saw the top of the sand storm over the horizon. Hinata started to run, Kiba ran after her and Shino was helping me up. "Thanks. Now run." I said as I started to run. That sand storm was getting closer and closer. I saw Hinata make it in, great. I barely saw Kiba make it as sand started to blur my vision. The worst feeling grew in my stomach as I knew Shino and I wouldn't make it. We were really close to the cave entrance, I looked up to see the back of Shino and barely the cave. My hands came up, and I pushed Shino.

Shino point

I saw Kiba enter the cave but the sand was making it really hard for me to see the cave entrance now I kept the straight path to it. In a couple of seconds, I could barely see the cave entrance. I had a bad feeling in my stomach knowing (Y/N) and I wouldn't make it. My mind went blank when I felt two small hands on my back and a force pushing me into the cave. The next thing I knew I was in the cave and (Y/N) screamed being taken far away from us. "(Y/N)!" I screamed trying to run out of the cave but for Kiba and Hinata holding me in. "We will find her after the storm. It will be really hard right now. We can't even see in front of our face, how we will find her?" Kiba said as he let go of me. We will find you, I promise...
