An hour ago
"You're late," Suigetsu yelled at his red-haired teammate.
"Shut up, I was getting some emergency medicines," Karin barked back at him.
"Why do we need medicines if you are a healer? Don't have confidence in your work? " Karin was annoyed by the mist ninja's mockery. 
"Baka, having some first aid is important. An idiot like you wouldn't understand it anyway."
"Hey wha-," 
"You can carry on with your bickering later, we're heading out to the hideout now," Their leader interrupted them as he was getting impatient. He had to start on his training soon rather than spending time on useless squabbles.
Sasuke had started searching for Itachi for a while now and his luck was not getting better. Since he left Orochimaru words have gotten out, and he's sure Konoha had heard it too. So, he'd had to be careful about the leaf ninjas.
As they were heading to the hideout, Team Hebi was in their usual formation and on their guard for any enemy attacks. Suddenly Karin sensed something.
"Sasuke, someone is heading our way, about 200 meters ahead," She informed her team leader.
"Be on guard everyone, we might have to fight," the Uchiha commanded his team.
Soon enough they stopped on their track as a red figure landed in their way.
"Uchiha Sasuke, I've been looking for you," A male voice was heard. They looked to find a guy in a red robe. He seemed just a few years older than Sasuke, maybe in his late teens. He also carried a sword with him.
"Who are you and What do you want?" Sasuke asked. Karin, Jugo, and Suigetsu were as curious as their leader.
"My name is Fuzen and you Sasuke have information about something I'm looking for," Sasuke raised his brows at that.
"What information?" He asked.
"I want to know the location of 'The Scroll of Toshiko'." Sasuke clenched his jaw after hearing that. No way he was giving away any sort of information about the scroll to this random stranger.
"What is 'The scroll of Toshiko'?" Suigetsu inquired.
"How do you know about the scroll, and why the hell are you looking for it?" Sasuke ignored his teammate and asked. His eyes were throwing daggers at the intruder. 
"That's not something you need to know about, just tell me where is the scroll," Fuzen fired back.
"No," Sasuke stated flatly. He glanced at his teammates," Let's get moving."
"Stop, and give me what I need or I'm gonna have to use force," Fuzen started to get serious for a battle. That didn't bother Sasuke at all. He started to head out. Seeing that Sasuke wasn't going to give in, he took out his sword and went for Sasuke.
Before he could attack Sasuke the Uchiha already took his katana to defend himself. The members of Hebi got ready to provide any backup their leader needed.
"You guys stay back until I say otherwise, I'll handle him," Sasuke instructed his teammates.
Fuzen launched forward with his attack. Sasuke blocked it easily. Their swords danced in a fierce battle. Fuzen was surprisingly very fast, faster than a normal shinobi. He was moving at a great speed that Sasuke was finding it difficult to keep up with even with his Sharingan activated.
Fuzen surely was faster but Sasuke had more skills, giving him the upper hand. After a few clashes, Sasuke managed to pierce the other boy. As Fuzen flinched due to pain Sasuke jumped back to use the fireball jutsu.  Fuzen couldn't escape his jutsu so, he fell to the ground, defeated.
