Jutsu looked at Sukai, Jay, Sky, and Tenkuu. She was taking them out camping since she hadn't spent any time with them lately. She'd been awfully busy after a group of loners asked to join the village. It was paper work after paperwork and fights to see waht their ranks would be. Still that was no reason to set aside her kids, even though Jay didn't really come around since she now lived with Micah in the Snow, and Jay was training day in and day out with Lucky for the Chunin Exams.

She smiled, looked around, thenn said. "So you guys ready?" She looked at each of the camping bags then at the dogs and their one kitten. Fangs, Jaxx, Todo, and Spot all gave a small growl of excitement and Berry meowed with joy. "Alright. Let's move out!"

Itachi sat in a tree. He watched silently as the kage that he'd fought several times headed out with her children on a camping trip. He knew better then to let any emtion of any kind to overwhelm him because he knew that Tenkuu, the youngest of her children could sense it and the wolves Jay and Sky could easily smell him.

Tenkuu laughed picking up Berry. "Yeah!!! Let's roll." She ran ahead, leaving her mom behind. "I can't wait to go swimming."

Saruka walked through the open, completely silent, until he sensed an unuaual precense. he looked around and saw the faint shimmer of an Akatsuki jacket through the leaves. Saruka jumped up behind the Akatsuki, and noticed it was Itachi, so he snuck up from behind. "So the all great itachi is here aswell? For what buisness may I ask?" Saruka asked very casually, looking down and seeing Jutsu, Tenkuu, and all the animals.

"Nothing that concerns you," Itachi said starring down at Jutsumaster. Another fight with her would do some good. He looked at Saruka. "I have no time for you, good day." He disappeared.

Jutsu laughed. "Anyone want to bring a friend along?"

Sukai shrugged. "I don't have anybody to bring. I'm single and my clan memeber hasnt shown himself yet," Sukai said with a grunt. He walked up beside his mom and looked up at her. "So where are we camping. You said in teh mountains, but not where in the mountains." He looked at her with pleading eyes.

Tenkuu smiled. "I have someone...Orochi Sani is his name," she spun around once then continued to walk.

Jutsu smiled at Sukai. "I'm not telling." She looked at Tenkuu. "I'll see if we can get him." She stopped and summoned Naga. "Go get Orochi if you can." Naga flapped twice and flew off. "Good boy." She looked at the kids. "Let's go."

"I wanna bring Micah." Jay said looking around. he smelled something on the air, but wasn't sure what excatly what it was.

Sukai started to sigh. "Oh come on mom...The least you can do is give us a hint." He crossed his arms and looked of to the side. "What about you Sky?"

Itachi reappeared as the family moved father up the moutain. If anyone interfers again I'll be forced to fight them. I dont hvae time for these games.

"Hey Itachi, are you stalking these guys?" Saruka questioned. Truth was, Saruka was a bit suspicious on way Itachi would be stalking them, so he had followed them aswell, just incase. Although Jutsu could probably sense them both.

Sky looked in Itachi and Saruka's direction. "Huh?" Is someone up there? He shrugged and looked at Sukai. "I've got nobody to take."
