*Swoop...
The door opened and from it came out a girl with blood all over her body. Behind her was a body which was lying in a pool of blood. This was the fat merchant who was killed by her.
Her eyes were completely devoid of any emotions currently, only a cold and calculating gaze was lingering on her face.
"Troublesome..." She let out a sigh and then with a puff of smoke she disappeared.
---
[Shika POV]
I almost jolted from my place as memories of torture and blood came to me.
"Huff huff..." It wasn't just torture and blood but also confinement and boredom which assaulted me.
"Knew it, something is fishy..." I can't help but let out a sigh, finding the situation troublesome.
After knowing that the girl was a Kunoichi and was earlier in Konoha, I just couldn't let it go unnoticed. So I created a Shadow Clone and made it turn into the girl and let my other shadow clone take her pretending in from of the fat merchant that I got her the girl he wanted.
In reality, I never came in contact with the girl period.
And it's a good thing that my Nara instincts kicked in right time and did so becuase it turned out that this girl was actually inside Konoha and the Merchant was tasked to kidnap her out of the village.
My clone resorted to torturing the fat guy when he showed his real colours. Trying to assault her, sigh...
If it wasn't a clone or a kunoiche then I could only think what might have happened to that poor girl.
The Merchant got what he deserved, I tortured him until I extracted all the information I needed before killing him. And of course, I looted all his money, I mean why not.
Anyways, back to the real me. Now knowing that this girl is SUS AF... my decision to follow her was right.
The merchant was given money to kidnap her out of Konoha. To my best guess, I believe that it was someone working with the girl to take her outside of the village.
This way they could draw the minimum amount of attention towards her.
I don't even know how a Kunoiche was able to get inside the village without others knowing.
There are spies for sure, but Konoha has an advantage in this regard, the sensory barrier of the village, the curtsy of Uzumaki clan Fuinjutsu, can distinguish new chakra really well. So even if they can't find out whether someone is a spy or not but the village sensory team can easily find any new chakra entering the village.
The only exceptions to this are civilians.
In this world, everyone has chakra but only trained shinobi can use it and have noticeably higher levels of chakra spikes than a civilian because of their training.
Anything close to a normal civilian level of chakra and the sensory barrier is useless. This information is mostly a secret but being a member of the Nara clan has some perks.
She is not a Civillain, that's for sure, however, I don't see much chakra in her either. Maybe she fell into the grey area in the sensory range or she might have come to Konoha when her chakra coils were not developed?
Honestly, I have no idea. However, how she pulled it off wasn't important right now. What was important was her intentions.
Why she is leaving the village now? If she is leaving means that she has gotten what she was looking for. Did she steal some village's secrets?
Another thing which didn't make sense to me was If she was pretending to be a civillain then can't she just walk out of the main gate like any other normal person?
Why make this extravagant plan in the first place?
Honestly, there were too many questions right now in my mind but zero answers. I had two thoughts about intersecting her in and getting her intention out of her but that won't do either.
That's way I most likely won't get to the person who is helping her from outside. Seeing that she was still going towards the capital, it became even more important that I find out who was responsible for putting a spy in Konoha.
And thus I didn't disturb her and just followed her till we reached the place.
Turn out that she was moving towards the capital but her destination wasn't exactly the captain of the Land Of Fire.
She was actually going beyond that. With her speed, it took two days and that was the exact time I got the memories of my clone.
And it turned out that my idea was right, trailing her was the right decision.
The timing was right since she seemed to come to her destination.
Soon I saw her slowing down and waiting near an outpost near the border of the land of fire.
It was a completely open area but thanks to it being night, I was able to hide inside shadows.
Waiting for all this time surely rewarded me, soon I saw someone coming to this almost isolated place.
Now it was only her and that person there.
"Hmm, I need to get closer if I want to learn what they are talking about…" I muttered seeing how much distance was between us. So with that said I entered into the shadow and got closer.
If only there was a Shikigami who could transmit voice to me. Maybe I could use a transmitter in one of my Shikigami for this purpose next time. I mused and got closer.
Thanks to Hinata, I have learned that even someone with Bayakugan has a hard time finding me when I'm inside shadows if they don't specifically have their eyes active.
However, I Immediately regretted going closer.
"Ah, not so fast, Ahmmm… "
"Inside, I want it inside…"
[Shika POV]
Finally, after an entire 2 hours of torture, they stopped. They were going like rabbits. Now I know why the girl was running so fast bruh, she needed that thing in her.
Sigh…
It's especially torture for me as I'm 13 and puberty messes you up at this age. If this was the older me then I'm sure that I would have masturbated after getting a free show but nah man, mission comes first.
'I need to get a girlfriend, fast…" I muttered to myself and it was getting troublesome to stand like this. Sigh…
"I love you…" Said the girl.
"I love you too…" Replied the man.
"Ah fuck you…" I can't help but roll my eyes at this. I wasn't here god knows how many kilometres away from the village to hear this. But I gotta have to listen to all their conversation. They might talk about something of use to me anytime.
And I was right. They did start talking business once the post-nut clarity kicked in.
"Did everything go alright ?" Asked the man to which the girl just nodded.
"Have you brought any physical proof ?" Asked the man to which the girl again nodded and looked for her clothes.
Yup, they were still naked in the middle of nowhere even after they had done the deed.
She searched for something from her clothes and ripped it apart from the middle. Not getting what she was up to I kept on observing when I saw her taking out a piece of paper which she swore between two pieces of fabric in her dress.
Smart…
That was the only thing I could say to her. Now things are starting to be put into place as well. This entire thing took place so that even if she was followed, she could put the blame on the merchant and get away with it.
At least that is what I believe was their plan.
'Now the real question is what is that paper which was worth infiltrating one of the strongest hidden villages in the elemental nation.' I slowly inch closer and try to get a glance.
And to my utter irritation, I didn't get it at all. It was some sort of Military document, for someone who has never worked on documents that much let alone official paperwork, it was all new to me. But I could say the way that man was smiling, that paper was bad news.
So, I did the only thing I could at that minute, quickly summon Gama (Toad) and ask him to get the paper from that man's hand.
Toad immediately appeared from the shadows and with his tongue, he snatched the paper out of the man's hand. Startling both him and the girl.
However, this also means that I have blown my cover.
"Who's there…" shouted the man, still undressed and his junk hanging out. Fortunately the girl had more brains, pretty unfortunately for me though, she got a good figure.
"No one important, by all means, please continue. I was enjoying…" I can't help it, right now I was a little frustrated seeing them in action while here I was, only 13, single and not having any action becuase I don't wanna injuries in my growing phase.
Sigh…
"You… give back the paper if you know what is right for you." The man threatened. Though now that I think about it, he looked like he was a Jonin. But since he wasn't wearing any headband I can't say which hidden village he is from.
This could be bad honestly, I acted just to get the paper but if it comes down to it, I might not be his match.
"You are a Konoha Ninja." The man seemed to continue to threaten me while looking for his discarded clothes somewhere when he saw the headband I was wearing and pointed at me.
"You, you said that you weren't followed." The man shouted looking at the girl who was too busy right now getting dressed to focus on anything else.
"No, I wasn't. I promise I made sure that no one was following me. I even took the long way to come here." Replied the girl almost immediately. She too looked baffled at how I was there.
"One minute, it's you. You are the Genin who escorted that fat pig." Suddenly it seemed that the girl recognized me.
"Yes, it was quite a journey. Here I was expecting a boring mission but suddenly the universe throws a runaway kunoichi in love who also happens to be a spy. Just my luck." I rolled my eyes.
"Genin you say." suddenly the man who now was finally in his pants, asked the girl and his demeanour seemed to change.
"Yeah, that fat pig was a cheapskate. He didn't pay much for the escort mission. Even a genin shouldn't take that mission." Replied the girl with disdain in her voice.
"Yeah, I asked him to put out a mission request for a C rank but pay less so no one would suspect a merchant leaving the village without protection." The man replied while getting ready to fight. Now knowing that I was only a Genin, he felt more confident all of a sudden.
"How did you even follow me all this time. I was confident that no one was following me." Asked the girl with surprise on his face.
"I have my ways." I just shrugged, not answering them.
"Don't bother with it. Boy give me the paper or don't bother leaving here alive." Said the man.
"Hmm, well I wasn't expecting to get out of there without a fight anyway. Come on, let's get over it quick. This mission has been more trouble than I thought it was…Sigh.
