3.pov
When Mito finally arrived to gates there were four root Anbu waiting for her. Mito softly greated them and was surprised when they returned it. Well they were acting more normal than last time she saw these 4. She didn't know their names but the chakra signals was familiar. Mito was surprised how when she asked how Orochimaru was leading them, or what did they think of Orochimaru. They answered :" Orochimaru - sama, is doing a great job preparing us for your leadership."
Mito froze but then smiled :" are you really that hopeful to serve under me."
The Anbu four answered :" of course, you were the one to kill Danzo, we learned to hate him over time, however we didn't have anywhere to run to or hide. We were his slaves. "
Mito smirked as she asked :" Then you also don't believe that emotions are weakness."
The root members answered :" we don't know, we were thought that they were, but having not experienced them makes us feel empty and hollow. "
Mito nodded and spoke :" that is right i wouldn't let of the pain and hatred ever. Those feelings made me who I am today, but withouth them I would feel stuck in endless cycle of nothing. "
Mito and root Anbu traveled to border with Rain county for two days. And when they got to border it was night so they decided to wait until morning to move in. Mito could feel that some kind of barrier was around the area she supposed that Ame was. The whole area was covered with so much chakra that she didn't know where it belonged and any normal sensor would stay away from that place however Mito know that wouldn't help her.
Mito created 10 clones and ordered them to watch, and just in case every few hours one of them would join them.
The sleep was light. Mito was awaken by sound of birds. And she slowly stood up, only to feel the wetness of ground. Did it rain yesterday, how didn't she noticed.
Mito and the Root Anbu continued their journey.
Mito was surprised surprised to see so much of wasteland. She knew that almost all of people in rain county lived in Ame however she didn't expect it to be this empty. Finally they found a smaller village and all of them hid their Konoha headbands, even chunin jackets were dealt with henge jutsu. Mito entered a inn. She knew that this place had to be connected to Akatskui. There is no way that someone who worked for Hanzo would be here. Mito order a glass of milk and a juices for her friends she said. The henge were just for their uniforms the Anbu now appeared to be same age as Mito and Mito had hidden her hair color.
The inn owner seemed to be nice.
Mito then sighed softly saying :" if only we were able to find them."
The root on her left caught her hands selas and nodded :" it seems like it was a waste of time searching for them."
Mito nodded and mumbled :" we were ready to join them, but this sucks."
The inn owner spoke :" I haven't seen you around here, and I am sorry but I kinda overhead your conversation. Maybe I can help you. I know a lot of things around here. "
Mito decided to play role of naive child :" really then do you know where to find… "
Suddenly a hand appeared on her face from root on her right. He spoke:" You can't just trust anyone here. "
It was such good idea to talk about this before just in case. Well most talks on this journey was Mito and root Anbu created cover stories and improving their acting depending on situations.
Mito the softly spoke :" but miss wouldn't tell anyone right. "
Miss nodded her head and spoke :" we can speak inside of one of rooms if you want."
The root Anbu on Mitos right now nodded and said :" that is fine."
Finally when they were alone with the woman Mito asked :" we are interested in Akatskui group, do you know someone that is there. "
Miss froze for a second and then spoke :" I know where one of them is right now. However how can I be sure that you aren't working for Hanzo. "
Mito nodded :" because I am a cousin to one of the leaders of Akatskui. And I haven't seen Hanzo in my life, because I am not from this country, I and my clansman are looking for our long lost cousin and are hoping to be in his service. "
The woman then suddenly made a handful of handseals and suddenly next to her appeared a doors. The woman spoke :" behind this doors is a document where their base is. Only the ones I approve of can get in. "
Mito nodded :" thank you for trusting us. "
Mito then enetered the passage and whispered to Root :"don't worry about me, just stay here. I don't feel any presence here and we don't know if she really is our friend."
Finally Mito reached inside and saw many maps. Each made of paper that quickly dissappears. Mito could see a lot of things written and only few of those stuck in her head. The directions were in ridlle, however luckily for Mito she didn't need them. Just by feeling the dissappearing chakra of Konan's paper she could pinpoint her chakra. It was lucky because Konan wasn't in Ame right now so she could easily feel her.
Mito exited the passage and said :" we should move."
Root Anbu followed Mito for half of day. They didn't know where they were headed but seeing how confident Mito was they didn't question it. The night arrived earlier than Mito expected, they camped the night again. Mito spoke about the chakra she felt and that that was what she was possibly searching for. Konan's chakra was few more hours away but wasn't moving. Mito decided to move early in the morning and possibly catch them before noon. She now could feel more than one chakra signal with Konan. The Uzumaki signal wasn't there, but it could be good enough if she spoke to Konan alone.
The next morning the group move a lot faster as they ate what Mitos clones hunted while they were sleeping. It took them few hours to reach Konan's group. However they were discovered before they made their appearance.
Konan was first to spoke :" show yourself."
Mito sighed and whispered to Root Anbu saying :" use henge and stay here i Will get down myself. Our mission isn't to scare them."
And just like that Mito jumped down. In front of Konan. Konan was a bit surprised to see young child jump of trees so high. In Ame there wasn't academy to teach you that. And Mito seemed to be 10 in her face. Mito landed gracefully and bowed to whole group :" I am sorry if I disturbed you."
Konan spoke again :" tell those guys to come down as well."
Mito was a bit surprised, she gestured them to come out as she asked :" Are you by any chance a sensor."
Konan didn't answer the question and looked at Mito asking :" who are you and what do you want."
Mito answered :" I want to help you. Who i am doesn't matter to you. "
Konan laughed :" it does."
Mito nodded :" I see, I am Uzumaki Mito, but that information doesn't mean anything to you."
Konan nodded :" that is true. "
Mito smirked :" I am not here to fight with Akatskui, but I would speak with one of founding members."
Konan was a bit taken aback how this girl knew what they were and about them as trio.
Mito spoke again :" I see, Jiraiya really did not say anything about me to you, and he didn't want to say anything to me about you. "
Konan was yet again surprised with this girl in front of her. She didn't let it show though. She wondered how this girl knew Jiraiya and why he didn't speak about her if they were close
Mito seeing that she wasn't getting a response leaned on the tree next to her :" Konan - San, I know you are one of three founders, I wish to send a message through you to other two, since I am not allowed to get in Ame. Tell them not to believe Hanzo."
Konan was surprised again and asked :" just who are you. How do you know so much. "
Mito answered :" an unfortunate soul who sees future. "
Mito then looked at her right as she felt a sudden rise of chakra.
In next three minutes Mito and her company were completely surrounded by Akatskui. Mito wonder why she didn't feel them sooner. But then she noticed how their clothes were wet and wet with same chakra around Ame. What was more the group that arrived seemed freshly out of battle. Nagato and Yahiko were there. Mito panicked because they seemed to be hostile. Nagato was the first to speak :" do you think that your henges are good. Stop hiding you Hanzos dogs."
Well shit now the henges costed them this. Mito nodded. And then spoke :" we aren't here to fight. We aren't Hanzos people. "
Konan spoke :" I don't think that we can trust them they are too knowledgeable. They even knew about three of us."
Mito cursed and then smiled :" it seems like you aren't as peaceful of group as you claim to be. "
Nagato was then one who spoke next :" is it wrong to eliminate the enemy that attacked us first. "
Mito nodded :" but you don't have proof that we attacked you. We aren't even from here"
However that didn't stop the attack that came to them. Mito cursed and she had only two thoughts in her mind make sure none of her teammates die and that actually nobody dies. Mito then unleashed all of her and Isobus ki, that gathered over years, even though Isobu was timid he could be scary. The amount of ki froze everyone even the Nagato and Yahiko. Mito was the only one that was able to move she spoke :" as I said I didn't come here to fight you. If I did you would already be dead. I might regret not killing you but that is for later. I came to deliver a prophecy to you but it seems that you aren't interested in hearing it."
Mito then turned around and touched the Root Anbu unfrozing them and she ordered :" lets go back. I don't care what happens anymore. If they are smart they will listen to my words. "
Mito mumbled the last part :" it seems like Jiraiya knew something like this would happen so he didn't tell me anything about them.,"
When they left. Akatskui finally could move and Nagato could feel something weird that said to follow this girl. His eyes were fixed on the direction she left.
Nagato said :" Konan, Yahiko I want to follow that girl and this time listen to what she actually wants to say."
Yahiko was surprised by sudden words of usually most calm friend. Nagato was usually composed because if his feelings were out of control his powers were too.
Yahiko nodded and he said :" You guys head out to headquarters and Konan, I and Nagato will try to speak to this girl."
They asked :" Are crazy she can kill all of you."
Konan answered :" she said that she could kill all of us so it is better if she kills someone it kills less people, but seeing how she had chance to kill all of us and did not is good enough for me. "
Mito could feel that they were followed by three chakra signatures, she wondered for a second why. So she decided to stop saying to roots :" be ready to attack, but don't do it, I think they just want to talk. "
After waiting for few more minutes the trio finally appeared. Mito looked at them unimpressed as she asked :" why follow us."
Nagato was the one who spoke :" it felt like a right thing to do. "
Mito smirked and nodded :" You shouldn't be following your feelings with those eyes Nagato, didn't Jiraiya teach you that."
Nagato froze his eyes were hidden by his hair and there was no possible way this girl knew about them Jiraiya said that he didn't spoke about them to anyone. Mito smirked again :" Nagato, do you not know how you got those eyes. It wasn't just a coincidence. There aren't yours at all."
Nagato froze he always wondered why did he have them.
Mito smirked :" seeing that you are willing to listen i will tell you what you need to know. Your eyes Nagato were give to you on your birth by very powerful man called Uchiha Madara. He chose you because of your genetics. Like any Uzumaki your chakra reserves are larger than normal and only you could weild those eyes. "
Konan asked :" didn't you say that you were Uzumaki too. "
Mito nodded :" I am, I suppose that we are cousins. That is way I am delivering this message even though Jiraiya lied to me. You guys are his precious students and I can't let anything happen to you guys because you are the force that can change many things. I just got the whole world under control and now you are making troubles. "
Nagato asked :" You said that I was Uzumaki and that you are too. You are saying that Uzumaki clan lived somewhere. So could you tell me more about it. "
Mito looked a bit sad :" there isn't much of Uzumaki clan to tell you about. We were slaughtered and only survivors. I personally know 3 others Uzumaki and now you. However I am not here because of family reunion. I am here to warn you. Don't let Hanzo trap you by asking you to treaty. It will end blodly. "
Konan asked :" Did you see that in vision. "
Mito nodded :" I did. However I don't know what exactly happens. "
Root Anbu knew how to keep secrets and wouldn't let anything slip their lips especially if it is about Mito.
Yahiko was the one who spoke :" why don't you come to our headquarters, just stay for few days. "
Mito looked a bit surprised by the offer. She didn't have a deadline to return and she didn't know if something would happen here. Mito thought about it for few seconds. Root Anbu then said :" we will accept your offer. "
Mito was surprised by the sudden response. She asked :" Did you just act politely and sociably accepting. Did you give yourself I check."
The Anbu nodded. Mito couldn't belive as she nodded :" it seems it has been decided that we will accept your offer."
Nagato and Konan then whispered to each other but Yahiko was still smiling brightly at them. Mito said :" um, hello, i Don't mean to be rude but shouldn't we just go to headquarters."
