Naruto, Sasuke, and Hinata stood in the clearing, and in front of them were cautiously standing three Rain genins, eyeing them warily. Both groups knew they would fight, possibly to the death, but either was reluctant to begin the battle.

The first Rain genin was a fifteen years old boy with semi-long brown hair and a mousy look. There was nothing intimidating on this one. In fact, he looked meek and withdrawn, wearing a raincoat with long sleeves that covered his hands.

Sasuke's eyes flashed with interest... only he knew why... as he slightly walked to the left, gesturing with his head to the genin to follow him.

The genin narrowed his eyes, briefly breaking his meek and insecure expression, before glancing at his two teammates and deciding to follow the duck-butt-haired boy. Getting a bit of distance from his teammates would have been for the best anyway. His fighting style was dangerous for friendlies, after all.

The second person from the Rain genin team was a short black-haired boy who threw a glare at the last member, a purple-haired kunoichi who had her hair in an onion-style bun.

"Ajisai, I am going to take on the shorty. Don't mess up and lose against the Hyuuga kid. I am sure even you can beat her. She looks like even a small burst of wind could topple her." He scoffed before sneering at Naruto and walking to the right side of the clearing.

"Whatever... you jealous prick." Ajisai muttered, inwardly happy this team was only temporary.

"What was that!?" The short genin turned around and leveled a heated glare at her.

"She called you a prick, you short prick." Naruto barked out with a laugh, irritated for the idiot poking fun at his height's expense.

Needless to say, the two boys were ready to tear each other a new one.

The two girls that were left in the middle of the clearing looked at each other and resignedly smiled at the antics of their teammates.

"I doubt we could resolve this peacefully, right?" Hinata asked in a weak voice, fidgeting.

"Unfortunately, no. Aoi-sensei ordered us to be ruthless." Ajisai said bitterly. "I am sorry but unless you surrender your client, I will have to kill you."

Hinata blinked and tilted her head at that, "Kill me?" Her eyebrow rose. "Is that so?" A Byakugan flashed into existence and Hinata let out her bloodlust.

Ajisai knew something was wrong when the nervous wreck of a Hyuuga in front of her stilled. Then the girl did a sudden complete shift in personality and the shaking rabbit turned into a fierce cat as the veins around her eyes bulged and the air abruptly became suffocating. The Hyuuga girl dashed at Ajisai, making her eyes widen at the speed of her opponent.

Ajisai instantly realized she won't be able to fight against the girl in taijutsu. She pulled out a tag and aimed it at the quickly approaching Hinata...

Hinata narrowed her eyes, recognizing the tag contained a seal. Ajisai unsealed the contents of the storage seal and Hinata found herself staring at a wall of fast approaching deadly weapons, hurled at her at breakneck speeds.

Not panicking, Hinata instantly started Kaiten, deflecting the rain of projectiles all over the surroundings.

Ajisai cursed as her weapons just bounced from the spinning chakra shield with loud clanging noises. Whipping out a new seal she put it onto a kunai's handle before throwing it above Hinata, timing its unsealing just right.

Hinata noticed the new seal that was above her almost instantly as she stopped spinning. It was still a tad bit too late as a large boulder was unsealed and pushed downward, straight at her.

They were in a clearing so there was nothing Hinata could use for a Kawarimi and she didn't want to risk using Kaiten. There was a chance she wouldn't be able to stop the boulder with it and that would mean instant KO if not death.

Gritting her teeth, Hinata created two Shadow Clones next to her. The clones grabbed Hinata by her hands and with a jerk, they threw the original Hinata away.

Hinata rolled on the ground before she pushed herself back onto her feet just in time to see her clone being squashed by the boulder, smoke being pushed away from underneath it by the pressure of the descending weight. She got back the memory feedback of being crushed to the death and winced, both praising and cursing Naruto in her head for teaching her the technique. At least, most of her chakra returned back.

"You are quite good." Ajisai uttered with a slight unease on her face.

Hinata nodded, "You have an interesting fighting style too."

The two stared at each other for a second before Hinata whipped a kunai from her pouch and threw it at Ajisai. The kunai was intercepted mid-flight by a shuriken but Hinata used this small distraction to start running in the direction of a clockwise circle around Ajisai, throwing shurikens at her.

Ajisai didn't want to use her stored weapons or any of her storage seals until Hinata was a bit closer so she only threw her own weapons in retaliation, intercepting the shurikens as the two kunoichis entered a stalemate.

'I can't let her get close.' Ajisai thought disgruntledly. 'But my weapons are not infinite. Once my supplies are depleted, I am screwed. I gotta either end this fight before that happens or stall until Aoi-sensei returns.' That only made Ajisai even more dejected.

She didn't like the Aoi guy. He was appointed as their jonin for this mission but... she was barely fifteen and he subtly hit on her almost every hour. Basically, he was a prick and Ajisai was not sure about his capabilities. Waiting for him to rescue her from the stalemate was a gamble she was unwilling to do.

'All out, it is...' Ajisai inwardly sighed and her eyes gained a determined glint as she crouched and pushed herself forward, straight at Hinata.

Seeing it, Hinata jumped back instead of rushing to confront Ajisai in her niche, the close combat. Ajisai didn't like that the taijutsu-oriented kunoichi was trying to avoid getting closer. She instantly became wary but sped up a bit. She needed to get to the mid-range so her stored projectiles would have the best chance at hitting the Hyuuga.

As Ajisai was rushing forward, she was passing by the line of deflected kunai and shurikens, when her world suddenly shifted and she found herself falling down onto the ground.

'Wha-?' Her mind confusedly asked before she registered the piercing pain from her foot. Stifling a pain-filled scream, Ajisai looked down and noticed her Achilles tendon was slashed. Her eyes widened and her body involuntarily curled into a ball as her hands grabbed her leg when the second Hinata slowly emerged from the ground nearby, holding a bloodied kunai.

"Hyuugas eyes can see through things. Hiding Like a Mole Technique is incredibly good with them." The second Hinata gave her a small regretful smile.

The original Hinata approached, "I created two clones. You should have checked if both were dispelled by the boulder." She added as if lecturing the girl.

Ajisai gritted her teeth, her arms snapping into her pouch as she tried to pull out her seals in an attempt to fight until the bitter end when something grabbed her wrists, both her hands just an inch away from her pouch. Ajisai found her world spinning and quickly found herself flipped upside down before her cheek painfully crashed into the ground, making her involuntarily whimper.

The original Hinata and the second Hinata watched as a third Hinata sprang from under Ajisai, flipped her from her back to her front, and ended up pressing her knee to the girl's back while pulling her hands back, ready to snap them at any given moment.

"Shadow Clones can create other Shadow Clones." The original Hinata pointed out.

"H-Heh... I... never stood a chance, huh?" Ajisai mumbled into the ground, relaxing her body. "Are you going to kill me?" She bitterly asked, knowing there was no way out of the firm hold with her skillset. Especially since the second Hinata approached and took away her pouch with seals and weapons, throwing it away from them before searching her body for more hidden weapons.

"No. I will not kill you." Hinata crouched down, making sure she was not at a striking distance from Ajisai, "I think Anko-sensei would be interested in your budding fuinjutsu abilities so I am capturing you. What about becoming a Konoha kunoichi?" She innocently asked.

Ajisai couldn't believe her ears. This was just ridiculous. "Fuck you. Just kill me now. I won't betray my village." She spat out.

"We shall see..." Hinata eye-smiled, causing a chill to go down Ajisai's spine before the world became back as the second Hinata knocked her out.

"Poor girl. Brainwashed to valiantly die for the cause. In this situation, you should agree and secretly plot your eventual escape, you dolt. What do they teach their recruits in Rain...." Hinata exasperatedly shook her head, "Now then, I wonder how Naruto and Sasuke are faring?"
