You nodded and looked at the Bodyguarding mission. "I say we bodyguard." You stated.
The rest of your teammates nodded. "Alright then." Kakashi stated. "Let's take the bodyguard mission."
Lord Hokage nodded. "Send him in."
The doors swung open and the man walked in. "Apologize for my tardiness Ninja-san… I've had to make a stop." The man wore robes of a priest, a brown garb that covered much of his body, but you could tell it was a disguise his real identity. He smiled as he looked at you, your team and Kakashi-sensei. "Kakashi Hatake I presume?"
Kakashi's eye narrowed before he nodded his head. "Yes."
"Excellent." The man started clapping his hands in enjoyment. "My name is Shu, at your service… or rather, you are at my service for the remainder of this mission." He smiled. "We must move to Waterfall sir, there is a poker tournament we must get to before we get to the land of the moon."
Kakashi sighed. "We were tasked to bring you to the Land of the Moon, not go on detours."
"I'd read the contract again than Lord Hatake." You immediately saw Kakashi freeze in place, but he did nothing else to show any sign of distress. He was surprised.
"Why did he call sensei that?" Futaba asked.
"Kakashi is the Clan Head of the Hatake clan," Itachi stated. "He has the title of Lord to any of his subordinates or retainers… or for inclined individuals."
"We should get going," Kakashi stated, distress and worry in his voice. "I hope you brought money, we're about to go to the gambling capital of the mainland."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Shu was rather annoying, boasting about how once he wins the tournament, he would be able to pay off his debts and live free.
"I am going to pay a hefty bonus of course." He stated quietly. "I promise you that."
"How did you get a debt like that anyway?" Futaba asked.
Shu smiled. "I had a run of bad fortune… my parents passed leaving me with something precious. I was a fool back than, and I gambled it away… now I'm trying to get it back."
His smile frightened you. "And ninja bodyguard?"
"A sign of wealth and status, of course, can't get into a poker tournament unguarded." He stated.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You were halfway through your journey when you noticed something was off. There was a caravan nearby, within sight of the Byakugan. There were following on the road nearby. You had told Kakashi that, and he nodded.
He had prepared himself for battle, and quietly told you all to get into a triangle formation. The Caravan was going to converge at a fork in the road. But with a civilian with you, one that wanted to walk with his own two feet, you couldn't avoid it.
"Kakashi, we're going to be meeting with an unknown caravan at the fork," you stated. "I don't like this."
"I know." He stated.
"You think they're debt collectors?" You asked.
"No, most debt collectors travel in small groups, not caravans," Kakashi stated. "Prepare yourself."
You nodded and looked to Futaba and Itachi. "Kakashi makes the first move."
Your two teammates nodded and prepared themselves.
The caravan almost reached you but you felt something was off.

"Sorry kid, but I need some extra hands for this job." Shu stated as you felt your world went limp, gas entering your mouth as his hand covered your face. You had seen him move, but he looked like he was trying to cover his face in fear. "And well, I cannot resist Kakashi Hatake himself helping to pull off the heist of the century."
Your team fell, darts puncturing their skins with a speed that Kakashi barely had time to notice. But it seems that Shu had another ninja on his payroll… because he fell to the ground.
"Load them into the back, we need to make up lost time." Shu stated.

You awoke in front of a painting of a fountain… a fountain with a woman on it.
And a large towering casino above you.
Welcome to Jade Siren Casino! Was above the gate, with large neon letters.
Who do you wake up with:
[]Kakashi: He seemed out of it, but you were going to check to make sure he was okay, and heal him of any injuries. "Don't touch his neck!" A voice called out. It was from a radio!
[]Itachi: The Young Uchiha was clearly in pain as he covered his eyes. "Good Good, the seal for his eyes works… Get up we have to get you prepared for your big debut in the gambling world."
[]Futaba: Futaba was standing up, her face red as her hair. "Great, he stole my Yari… what the heck am I supposed to do with this?" She looked to you and immediately hugged you. "Your okay!"
[]An Unknown Iwa Nin: The blond teen was… very angry. "Quiet you little brat, and listen, and you will survive!"
[]An old woman in a Kimono: She looked at you with her dead, red eyes, and a silent whisper crawled into your head. "Are you Hyuuga... Are you from Konoha?"
[]A very… Strange man in priest garb. "JASHIN WILL HAVE YOUR HEAD FOR THIS TREACHERY!"
[]Alone: You were left with... a strange device on your arm. "Your awake... good, good..." The voice came from it, imitating from a speaker. "It seems my plan got a little disrupted by the security. Listen to me, and every one of your companions will make it out of here alive. I have a plan."
AN: You should have seen this coming.
