The group had made it into the Land of Iron and were on route to the location of the drop off. "Where are we taking her?" Haruto asked.
"Just a little way more." Konohamaru said.
"Why is she being targeting?" Kei asked.
"Tanya is the daughter of a General high in the Lord of Iron's favor so if he suggests a treaty that would change the politics of the Land of Iron." Konohamaru said.
"And whoever hired the bandits would not like that." Ryousake said.
"Then we have to get her back home as fast as we can." Haruto said.
"That is not needed." A voice was heard and they show a platoon of armored Samurai. They were being led by a man with long black hair that was spread out behind him wearing the same armor as the rest with a single sword at his side. The platoon stopped and the man spoke. "My name is Kenshin, i serve under General Takei, He was worried about attack so he sent us to investigate."
"We are ninja of the Leaf sent to escort this girl to her father. Your General I presume." Konohamaru said.
"Well it is good that you got her this far safe. Now if you don't mind we will take her the rest of the way." Kenshin said as he started towards the carriage. Just as he was getting close a kunai was thrown at him and he jumped back. "What is the meaning of this?"
"You goofed." Konohamaru said. "You came without a helmet on. Also this amount of men for recon is too small. Also your movements are to relaxed." Konohamaru said. "Finally, only generals would carry a single blade."
"Is that so." With that Kenshin jumped back in front of his platoon. "Well no need for the charade anymore." Kenshin said. He then draw his sword and charged at the Genin but Konohamaru blocked the attack and countered."I will take you out first Leaf Ninja." With that they started to fight.
"Team take Tanya and go." Konohamaru said.
"But Sensei, We can't leave you." Haruto said.
"Haruto, you and the others will go. Kenshin here may not have been sent by her father but he is still skilled enough that I can't fight and protect the four of you. Now go." Konohamaru said in a serious tone.
At that the Genin took hold of Tanya and left. Kenshin pushed Konohamaru back. "After them and remember to bring the girl back alive." With that the men that were with him ran after the Genin. Konohamaru was about to go after them but Kenshin stopped him. "I don't think so."
Meanwhile with the Genin and Tanya. They have been running for some time and have found a place to hid and caught their breath. "Are we safe?" Kei asked.
"They are approaching fast, we have to get moving again." Haruto said. They were about to leave when Tanya fell over. "Tanya, what's wrong."
"Let me see her." Ryousake said as he went up to Tanya. "She is still weak from the operation and pushed herself too much." He then looked her in the eyes and said. "We can't stay here, I am going to carry you is that okay?" Tanya nodded. "Okay help her onto my back." With that Haruto picked her up and placed her on Ryousake's back. "Hold tight." With that he started off and the rest of his team following him. They soon got to a old shack and entered it and placed her down. Ryousake then started to look her over.
"What are you doing Ryousake?" Haruto asked. "We don't have time to sit around. We need to think about our next move."
"Quiet Haruto." Ryousake said. "If you are so worried go and keep watch."
"Whatever." Haruto then stepped outside.
Kei then stepped out with him. "Still made about leaving Konohamaru sensei?"
"Yeah but that Ryousake, what makes him think he can give orders since sensei is not here?" Haruto asked.
"Haruto, what do you now about Ryousake's parents?" Kei asked.
"I know that his mom is Lady Sakura, head of the medical corp, and that she was on my dad's team." Haruto said.
"And of his father?" Kei asked.
"Just that his name is Sasuke and that he is Jonin." Haruto said.
"What you don't know is that his dad was a rogue ninja that was wanted by the Five Great Nations." Kei said. This shocked Haruto. "Think about it, being the son of a traitor."
"Kei, you talk too much." Haruto said. He then activated his Byakugan. "Here they come." With that he and Kei got ready for a fight.
Back at at the fight with Konohamaru and Kenshin.
"You are strong." Kenshin said. "That is why I must not let this mission fail."
"What mission is that?" Konohamaru asked.
"Since you must be killed I will tell you, The Land of Iron must stay neutral, we cannot interact with the shinobi world and must not let you shinobi from invading ours." With that he charged at Konohamaru and he was sent to the ground. "That wound will not kill you but I will take you life in time but first I must make sure that the girl is retrieved." With that he started off leaving Konohamaru there.
Back at the shed.
"Where is the girl?" asked one of the 'samurai.'
"What makes you think we would tell you?" Kei said.
"It does not matter, I will kill you two and make the other one tell use." Another said as he charged at them.
Kei then ran forward and then 'samurai' that attacked was on the ground. "What?" Said one of the 'samurai.'
"That girl has some skills with a sword. But she is both a child and a girl so she is weaker then us." With that several of them attacked.
"Then why must you attack all at once?" Kei then placed her sword into the ground next to her and then took out from her bag a scroll and then opened it to reveal a blank scroll. She then took a brush and quickly draw on the scroll in ink. She then performed a single handed sign."Ninja Art: Super Beast Scroll." At that ink-drown Lions come out of the scroll and attacked. The 'samurai' destroyed them easily but then saw that Kei had already gotten to them and slashed them. "They seem not to be that strong." She was then kicked back.
"Kei!" Haruto then jumped up and caught her. "You okay?"
"Yeah, he caught me by surprise." Kei said.
"Give us the girl and we may let you live." One of the 'samurai' said as several of them were standing ready to fight.
"Never tell me to give up." Haruto said. He then formed his hands into a cross sign. "Shadow Clone Jutsu." With that twenty copies of Haruto appeared.
"How did this brat do that?" Asked one of the "samurai.'
"It doesn't matter, get rid of them." With that they charged in the 'samurai' attacked but they dodged and then thrust a palm at them and disturb the flow of chakra. "Gentle Fist and Shadow Clone using Genin, how is that possible."
"We are not getting paid enough for this." One of the 'samurai' said. "Get them." Just then Ryousake stepped out. "One more will not help them." With that they charged.
"I guess I have to use this." With that Ryousake performed hand signs and launched his jutsu. "Fire Style: Fire Ball Jutsu." With that he launched a stream of fire and used it to cut off their path.
"We're surrounded." At that Haruto's clones then finished the job.
"You okay?" Ryousake asked Kei.
"My chest hurts but I am fine." Kei said.
Ryousake's hand then glow light green and he held it over Kei's chest. "The guy is a medical ninja." This is my chance to get the girl while they are distracted." The remaining 'samurai' crawled towards the shed but then Ryousake appeared before him. "Please have mercy."
"You are in luck. I don't like fighting fakes." With that Ryousake's eye turned from black to red with three black tomoes."
"The Sharigan that mean this is the son of Sasuke Uchiha..." With that the man went to sleep.
With that done they were getting ready to go and head back to the Leaf with Tanya until Kenshin appeared and slashed Ryousake. "Ryousake!" Haruto said.
"Two sure ways of winning a battle. Eliminate the leader and eliminate the medical support. Now that I have taken both out then I will give you one last chance, give me the girl." Kenshin said.
"Ryousake!" Said a voice from the shed.
"Oh there she is." Kenshin said.
"I will not let you take her, not as long as I still take breath." Haruto said.
"Fine then." Kenshin was about to attack until he felt something. "What is that?"
"Miss me?" Konohamaru said.
"How can you still move?" Kenshin asked.
"You never asked, what my name is. It is Konohamaru Sarutobi." He said.
"The Second Ninja Professor." Kenshin said.
"So even a ronin has heard of me." Konohamaru said. "Now tell me who hired you to take her?"
"I am not telling." Kenshin said. "Plus I will kill you like I killed your student."
"Haruto?" Konohamaru asked.
He then activated his Byakugan. "He is till alive."
"Well then I will have to take care of you then." Konohamaru said. Just then shruiken came flying towards them and the two separated. Kenshin then ran away. "He got way." Konohamaru then ran to Ryousake and then started work on him. "There, how is that?"
"Not perfect but it will work." Ryousake said. Tanya then peeked out of the shed. "It is okay I am fine." She then ran up and hugged him. "Ow."
"Sorry." She said.
"Okay Tanya, we will be taking you directly to your father, once there you will be safe." Konohamaru said.
"Okay." She said and with that they were off.
Meanwhile elsewhere. Kenshin was still running until he got tired and laid against a tree. Someone then approached him. He was about to attack until he saw who it was. "You are getting sloppy." Said a woman in a black hooded cloak.
"Shut up, you told me that those men you gave me were skilled." Kenshin said.
"Well I never expected that they were going against such skilled ninja." She said. "Well your plans are ruined."
"Not exactly." He said getting up. "My plans are about to go into the second stage." This confused his partner.
