Drunken Space Ninjutsu

Chapter 6

The ANBU Commander was frowning. Not that anyone knew, thanks to the mask.

If a Hyuuga was inside there, able to use the Juken, then picture was not a fake.
But the one pictured in the photo frame was male. If a female one was also present, in flesh and blood and not a picture...
That raised a lot of questions.
Were they traitors? Was there a plot to help some of the village's enemies?

Or were they...born outside the village? Maybe a Hyuuga on a mission got drunk and-

He stopped that train of thought. He needed facts, not crazy theories about long lost children.

He approached Masahiro, who was still concentrating on the building.

"I need to know one thing, Uchiha-san."

"Just one second...hey watch out, Pyre Team! You're heading straight to-"

"Wha-? Sand? Here?"

"Hey, you! Surrender now and-"

"Sand Binding Prison," stated a cold and monotone voice. Then everything went to static.

"Oh great. Well it seems they're still alive, at least," muttered Masahiro "Now, how can I help you, Commander?"

"The Hyuuga girl. Where is she?"

"Oh, it's about that? No sense wasting time, then." replied the Uchiha, closing his eyes again.

The Commander watched in silence as the sensor concentrated.

"She's still on the floor were she fought the Blaze Team. But she's moving, fast, to the west side of the building."

"I see. Thank you." said the Commander. He changed the channel of his personal radio as he walked to a more secluded part of the Aresawa's residence.

"Snake, this is the Commander. What's your position?" whispered the ANBU leader.

"Commander, I'm on the third floor, moving to support-"

"Negative. You have a new mission. You must find one of the intruders."

"Yes sir. I...see."

"Snake, she's a Hyuuga."

"WHAT?"

"I know. You must capture her alive. Understood? We need answers."

"Of course, sir. After all...I'm the right man for the job, right?"

"Indeed."

Ino was not having a good morning.

Unlike last night's party.
The party had been fun, it had been crazy, it had...she was not sure about much else, because the last clear memory she had was about being offered a sake bottle by someone. After she'd already drunk quite a bit. She could check with her family's techniques later, maybe.

Right now she was ravaged by a terrible headache, plus all the classic hangover package.

She had tried to ease the pain with some medical jutsu, but she was not as skilled as Sakura.
