Two of them, jsut to...in their black cloaks, with red clouds, and their wierd straw hats...they enter the area of the gatehpus without trouble, as the guard is asleep...they spot you, and walk over, and hold up a colored picture, it was gobi!

"Have you seen this creature?"

the one man asks politely, and bows low,"we are travelers, looking for this beast, if yo culd help us in any way, we could reward you...

"Yes...I have seen this beast. It is a sacred being. Why do you seek it?" Sovelis said, his hood hiding his face from Itachi as he leaned on his staff.

"Hmmm where have You seen it? and we seek it for our own purposes..." The man said...the blue man nods...sifgnifying that he agreed with secrecy...

"East. I will lead you to Gobi." Sovelis said quietly. Great....more fricken ninjas...what else can go wrong... he thought as he started to the woods. "Carefull, this place is dangerous, who knows what'll pop up."

"lead the way..." the man said... then started to follow sovelis, the blue man also followed, thopug reluctantly...

"So...where are you two from? Never seen anyone like you before." Sovelis said to the blue giant. "Wierd eyes you have there." he noticed Itachi's sharangan

"HMph, we...are from the kingdom of fire..." the man lied...

"We are adventurers, looking for money, this beast will brinmg us a fortune!" said the blue man...

"Right...if you can catch Gobi. I'd like to see you try." Sovelis said as the began to get closer to the woods.

"it shouldn't be too difficult..." said the blue man..

"Quiet!" the man barked, there, in front of the group, was gobi...

"Why have ou brought them? sovelis, they are my enemies!" gobi baked.

"They shouldn't be to hard to defeat." Sovelis said, drawing the Tempest Blade.

..but it was too late, itachi was in front of sovelis, and punched him in the gut, sending him to his knees. gobi was advancing slowly on kisame, the two have revealed them selvs as members of akatsuki...

"Ow...I'll kill you for that..." Sovelis mumbled as he got up and slashed at Itachi.

Only to be blcked by samehada. Kisame makes a swing for sovelis and makes conact, barely cutting the last tempest.
Itachi and gobi were at it, gobi manipulating lightning energy and throwing it at itachi, who dodges it easily and replies with amateratsu, a black flame that will burn for three days. itachi also attempts tsukuyomi, but can'tr get gobi's eyes...

"Damn it!" Sovelis said as his armblade slid out with a scraping noise. "I'm sick of your swor already. DIE!!!" Sovelis drew deeply upon his own power and forced his body to move faster as he slashed at Kisame, fire burning around his sword and mechanical arm.

" WATER DRAGON!" kisame shouted, making handsign, a dragon formed out of water, comes out of the lake and hits sovelis head-on, sending the empest flying and putting out hois flames. gobi is still advancing on itachi, who contiues to try ameteratsu...but to no avail, gobi bites itachi in the leg...
