Log;

Maybe it was because they had not remembered him, or maybe it was because Gai-sensei was not here to instruct their actions, but Rock Lee felt a bit disheveled in this current situation. Of course, Shizune had told him, or rather warned him, about these curses, but it was one thing to observe his closest comrades in their distress.

He stood upon the roof of the building surveying the 'City', as it was dubbed, and immediately his bushy brows narrowed as he waited for Neji to arrive so that they could begin their self-assigned mission. To the horizon, he gazed, pensively staring as he analyzed and took all of this morning's conversations in. It pained him to hear his comrades talk as if they had never met, but from what his elder had said, it would only last these twenty-four hours.

Though if they would be able to get through these twenty-four hours would be another story.

[Argh. Sorry this is so late!]

Lee had nodded once again with the same fire burning in his eyes and followed suit, unaware of the potential dangers that lurked in the near-by shadows. Like Neji, he too, was ignorant of what this foreign land was capable of.

He trusted the Hyuuga's Byakugan, though, almost to the point where he would risk his life to prove it. And even though he knew Neji did not remember what they had as teammates, a Konoha shinobi would never abandon another of the village.

"Please, tell me when you have spotted her."

A voice came from farther ahead in the darkness. Two eyes were shining just a little farther ahead and began to approach the two ninja.

"What are you doing down here, may I ask? It's not exactly safe in this area."

She froze, making sure her chakra was masked, watching the proceedings with Byakugan. A frown marred her features as she formed seals, prepared to mold her chakra as needed.

They are MY prey. If you interfere, whoever you are, I will not hesitate to destroy you as well.

Neji's eyes raked over the figure in the distance, as Byakugan focused.

"We are looking for a civilian girl from our village. We heard she was in trouble down here."

"I've not seen her, but I can lead you around if you wish."

"That would be appreciated, sir." If he was at all wary, Lee did not show it. Instead, he followed beside Neji, brows knotted like a bow. "She wears her hair in two buns and is only slightly shorter than the two of us."

He tried to keep his voice in check, trying to keep his composure in line, but it would not be as simple as he had first anticipated.

"We are in your hands."

"Let us go, then."

He began to lead them into the depths.

"On your guard, humans."
