Ok, what do you mean by 'who she is with?'. Is she actually a secret follower of Orochimaru as well? I hope not because I really like her. I have read the manga but not really well between the current part in the anime and up to about Mange episode 200.I definitely must have missed something because I never really noticed her until she appeared in the anime
