The Akatsuki Makes Its Move

** - Thoughts

Sunagakure

Baki - Over the last few years our village has enjoyed stability and prosperity. Largely due to our dealings with the Hidden Villages of the Allied Lands to give one example is our recruits have better trained thanks to new training methods. Methods learned form the hidden leaf village

Advisor - We'll see how much better they are. The chunin exams are almost upon us

Yura - Correct. And that's why these nasty rumors are especially troubling. 

Baki - Rumors Yura?

Yura - Yes Sir. Have you ever heard of a group called the Akatsuki? The Akatsuki is a mysterious organization comprised of a dozen or so shinobi. Everyone of its members is listed in the bingo book as S rank criminals. Of those who have been identified. One is Itachi Uchiha of the Village Hidden in the Leaf. He is a man who annihilated his entire clan in the dead of night. Another is Kisame Hoshigaki one of the seven ninja swordsman the phantom of the Mist. Then there is Orochimaru the Assassin of our late Kazekage who came so close to destroying the leaf. It is said that even he to was once a member.

Baki - I see. Yes I've heard something of this myself recently. So their finally making their move?

Yura - We have this information from one of the legendary Sanin, Master Jiriya himself. So before this meeting, I took the liberty of ordering the village to be secured and I've stationed Anbu Black Ops at key points on the perimeter. No matter how clever these shinobi may be if they hope to take us by surprise their mistaken. We've heard they wear distinctive  black cloaks with blazing red clouds. If our lookouts spot such a cloak they have been ordered by me to attack at once.

Baki - Very well then this meeting is adjourned

Everyone proceeded to leave except Gaara and Baki

Yura and the other board member where walking down the hall

Advisor - Well done Yura. We're all impressed by the promptness and prudence of your actions

Yura - Huh, Well I've have had a seat on the council of advisors for four years and I've learned that...I must...be able to make decisions on my own

He strained at the end making the other advisor look at him

Yura - While always considering...the best interest of the village

The jutsu on Yura's mind released and he stopped walking holding his head. The other advisor looked back toward him.

Advisor - What's wrong

Yura - Nothing it's nothing. I'm just tired that's all

Advisor - Careful you push yourself too hard

Yura - Thank you for your concern

The advisor walked off while Yura fell to a knee clutching his head

*Yura - I see so that's what's*

Deidara, Sasori and CeCe were walking toward the hidden sand village

Deidara - So the one that's here will be the first it seems. The one we sent to Orochimaru will have to wait. This one's turned traitor and has been taking about our movements

Sasori - Can't be helped I suppose

CeCe - I don't even know what will happen once the jutsu is cast

Sasori - Are you sure what you've got in that pouch will be enough

Sasori looked to Deidara

Sasori - Our enemy possess the Jinchuriki host

Deidara - Every one of my Jutsu's is a work of art. Just to be sure I brought along my masterpiece. We can't take any chances when our opponent is the one tail.

CeCe - In any case, if you can not defeat him I will be forced to extract the one tail while you engage him

The ringing of the bell caused the Anbu shinobi to look around. Deidara, Sasori, and CeCe came into view

Tsubusa - Well what do we have here? Black cloaks with red clouds on them, it's them, it must be. Captain Yura must be told at once

He looked to his right ready to leave when he saw Captain Yura

Tsubusa - Captain Yura, the ones you were waiting for their here

Yura - So I see, no need to worry this won't take long

They walked up to the gates and met Captain Yura covered with blood and his comrades dead at his feet behind him

Sasori - Good work Yura

CeCe - You remember us I presume

Yura - How could I forget CeCe and Lord Sasori

Yura bowed down in front of them
