[CONFIDENTIAL: LEAF ONLY]
We have received word that Sound plans to attack in three days. Konoha is now on high alert. ANBU captains and jounin are required to report to the admin building IMMEDIATELY for briefing. All other ranked ninja are required to prepare for immediate and emergency defense -- this city will become a fortress, and we will not allow infiltration.
This information is SENSITIVE and CONFIDENTIAL.

It is hard to read Kabuto's motives, or even to trust his information. However, at the advice of those who are trustworthy, and who happen to trust him, I will take his word and prepare the village for an attack.
This is SO not good for my blood pressure.
After a thorough investigation, it has been revealed that after Ino-san fought the Sound ninja, he showed surprising mercy and allowed her to live. Though it may prove that there is hope in the goodness of Sound, one can only think that it was part of a larger plot to ... to what? Prove that even they can be merciful? I have yet to come up with a solid theory, and that worries me. As much as I am thankful that she is alive, Yamanaka Ino should be dead.
I can tell that my worsening mood is affecting everyone around me... especially Genma, who I know is worried even though he likes to pretend nothing bothers him. I just wish I could tell him how I really feel, but the words are so hard to say. One word.
Stay.
