Naruto, Gaara and Fuu just stared at them right back. Yagura sighed and clapped his hands together loudly. Naruto, Gaara, and Fuu suddenly turned to him and stood at attention, their biju placed on their heads so that they could do so properly.

"Okay, today it's the Konoha's teams turn to be guard the bridge builder. we will be protecting his family and training today. Naruto, Gaara, you two will be accompanying Inari while Fuu and I will guard Tsunami. Leave five shadow clones to train with mine and Fuu's shadow clones. We'll be training in the clearing you woke up in this morning. Keep the link open and keep your summons with you. Dismissed!" Yagura then elbowed Tazuna. "Aren't you supposed to head to the bridge and get started for the day?"

"Oh, right. Come on you lazy ninjas! We've got work to do!" he yellled as he headed out the door. Everyone from Konoha followed after him somewhat grudgingly except for Iruka who said that he would catch up.

Iruka waited til his team was out of sight then pulled Yagura off to one side. Yagura saw the look on his face then sighed and waved Naruto, Gaara and Fuu outside. After they left, Yagura turned to Iruka and told him "If you want to ask something then get on with it. I need to go and train the others."

"What type of group is Teru?" Iruka asked, worry clear in his eyes. "When I look how your group reacts to each other I though you guys were like a family or a group of childhood playmates. But ever since last night there have been times where it seemed like you guys have had training like that of Root from our village, and they were disbanded because the training was too hard and cruel for the children it was meant to train."

Yagura stared at him and sighed. "There is no reason that I need to answer you, however, I know that you are only asking out of concern for them, so I will answer you anyway. Everyone that was brought into Teru was taken from a village that discriminated against them and treated them horribly. We were raised together so we do regard each other as family. However, because of the say we were treated on out previous villages, there were times where some or even all of us would withdraw into ourselves and get trapped in our memories, completely unresponsive to the outside world. It was apparently impossible to get us to eat and some times these episodes would last weeks at a time. Eventually, the one who rescued us trained us to the point where there were things that we responded instinctively to. He realized that he could use this and started to do things a bit differently. That instinctive response to some things after a while allowed him to get us to keep our bodies properly fed among other things. He decided that it was fine to keep us trained like that if it kept us fed and once we started taking missions, he taught the older kids better mental discipline and what it was that we were reacting to so that we could continue to function on missions even if the younger minds were not all the way there. They have gotten a little better so they'll snap out of it pretty soon. But the fact that their still reacting to it means that they have not completely come out of the shock of revisiting some of their memories. They'll snap out of '"eventually so you don't need to worry about it."

"Okay, thanks for explaining it to me." Iruka said as he left to catch up with his team, mind though still a bit troubled more relieved than anything.
