Chapter 10: Captor Pursuit
I updated on Quotev and now I bring to you another Chapter!
~Lee's POV~
It's been at least 3 hours sense Naruto and I planned to pursuit the Cloaked Man. And in that time, I havebeen Training.
I stopped Training with the thought of where (Y/n) may be. What that man wants. Or, what he wanted...
I made sure to stash up on Throwing Stars, Kunai Knives, and one Shuriken attached to my back.
Night soon fell, as I waited patiently for Naruto to at the Village Gates. But as I was waiting, a certain voice startled me.
It was Sakura and Hinata. "Hey Lee, you look like you're going on a mission, what for?" Sakura asked, suspicion in her eyes.
"And we haven't seen (Y/n) all day, do you know where she is?" Hinata questioned timidly.
I struggled to find the right words, but in the end, I gave in. "Do not say a word to anyone, but earlier today, (Y/n) was... Kidnapped..."
"What?! By who?!" Sakura shouted.
"We do not know, he was wearing a cloak the whole time... But Naruto and I are heading out to find her. As soon as he gets here that is,"
"Well I'm coming too!"
"As will I..!"
My eyes widened at the both of their sudden bravery. And the looks in their eyes told me that they were not going to take 'no' for an answer...
"Alright, you may come, but be prepared for anything! (Y/n) informed me that the man has all different types of weapons,"
The both of them just smiled and nodded. We all then waited for the last member of our team.
"Oi, Bushy Brow! I'm here! We can--" Naruto started, but then stopped at the sight of Sakura and Hinata.
"What're they doing here?" He asked bluntly, pointing at the two Kunoichi.
"We're coming to get (Y/n) back, Dumbass! What does it look like we're doing?!" Sakura shouted in a whisper tone as she bashed Naruto upside the head.
"Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow..! Alright! Alright! You can come!" Naruto grunted, holding his head in pain.
"Good, now will you keep it down?! We don't wanna get caught! Let's go!" Sakura instructed.
We all nodded and followed her orders. We leapt from the ground up into the trees, making our way out of the Village and into the Forest of the Land of Fire. (That's where the Leaf Village is, right?)
As we jumped through the trees, we had finally gotten about 1 mile away from the Village. We stopped to rest on a branch, and to plan our attack and search places.
We sat down while Naruto pulled out a blank piece of paper from his pouch, I provided a pen that I always keep with me to take notes.
Sakura ripped the page into four pieces and handed one to each of us. Drawing a different part of a map onto each piece.
"Okay, if you find anything suspicious, mark it down on the map, don't investigate, just search for anything more, then head back to this spot," Sakura cut a small slash-mark into the trunk of the tree. "Be back here in 15 minutes,"
I handed everyone a pen, kept one for myself, and then we all disbursed into all different directions.
~Sakura's POV~
As I searched for any clues on where (Y/n) could be, I tracked my location vary carefully on the map.
I jumped down from the tree, hoping to find any form of footprints. Of course, to my dismay, I found nothing.
I sighed in defeat and started moving again. Still keeping an eye on the ground for anything unusual.
~Naruto's POV~
It's been about five minutes sense we all split up to search for clues. And still, I've found nothing!
I stopped to catch me breath. But as I squinted my eyes, I saw what looked to be foot prints.
I hopped down from the branch I was on, and eyed the footprints closely. I saw that they lead on for a while, but I did as Sakura said and marked it on my piece of the map.
When I was done, I started searching for more clues that may be nearby.
~Lee's POV~
10 minutes have passed, and I have not found a single thing. But I stopped at a sudden glimpse of something oozing from a bush below.
I leaped down, and slowly moved leaves and thorns out of the way as I kneeled down. My eyes widened as a strange (f/c) substance covered a whole patch of grass.
I marked my location on the map and started back towards the tree Sakura had told us to meet at.
~Hinata's POV~
As I jumped from tree to tree, I used my Byakugan to search the area. But as I was moving farther and farther, I finally got a glimpse of something.
I headed towards a shadow that looked like a rundown building. I marked it on my map because I couldn't see inside with my Byakugan.
I retracted my Kekkei Genkai and started back towards where the others should be. Aware that it's been a little over 15 minutes now...
I quietly moved through the trees, following in my previous footsteps. Once I finally got back, the others were already there.
"Where've you been Hinata? We were about to come search for you!" Sakura exclaimed worriedly.
"Sorry... I found something farther away than I thought," I replied shyly, fiddling with my fingers.
"Well, that's fine, but come on! Let's compare maps!"
I walked over and placed my map down to complete the others' pieces. "Naruto, wh-what did you find?" I asked, trying my best not to stutter.
"I found these weird footprints," he replied, pointing to his spot on the map.
"I found this odd oozing substance on the trail. It was glowing like it had some sort of chakra," Lee explained, gesturing to his mark on the map.
"I didn't find anything... What about you Hinata?" Sakura asked as they all looked over at me.
"I-I found an abandoned building. But I couldn't see through it with my Byakugan, so I marked it down," I replied, stuttering once again.
"Good. We'll check Lee's destination, then Naruto's. Then after that we'll investigate the building," Sakura wrote down everyone's name on their piece of the map.
She held up Lee's and put the rest into her pocket. "Let's go,"
And with that, we all headed to the place Lee had marked down.
What's going on? Where is (Y/n)?
Whataya' think? Worth the wait? Well, whatever the answer, I hope you enjoyed! I'll update sooner or later
