"Sasuke! Sasuke please don't leave me!" shouted Sakura in tears. Sasuke ignored her and continued walking. "Sasuke! Stop now or I will scream!" cried Sakura. Sasuke suddenly appeared behind her and whispered "Sakura, thanks for everything" in a soft voice. Her sight was blurry and in a few seconds Sakura fainted. Sasuke picked her up and laid her on a bench.
Sakura woke up and was shocked to see Naruto and Kakashi Sensei infront of her. But what shocked her most was where she was now. "Sakura! Your awake!" said Naruto. "Where am I now? Wait! Where is Sasuke?" scream Sakura. "Calm down, Sakura. You are in the hospital." explained Kakashi Sensei. "Tell us what happened, Sakura. Why were you sleeping on a bench?" asked Naruto. "I-I...Sasuke." said Sakura in a sad tone. She explained what happened from A-Z. Naruto and Kakashi Sensei was shocked when they heard what happened.
After Sakura recovered, she and Naruto went for a walk. "Naruto, can I ask you a favour?" said Sakura. "What is it, Sakura?" replied Naruto. "Can you please bring back Sasuke? Please!" Sakura started crying. Naruto didn't want to see Sakura cry so he replied "Yes." Sakura stopped crying and looked at Naruto. She then gave him a smile. "Thank you, Naruto." In a soft and low voice. Naruto smiled but deep in his heart he didn't know what to do.
Naruto went to the Ichiraku Ramen shop to eat. There he saw Kakashi Sensei. "Sensei! It's a surprise to see you here." said Naruto. Kakashi smiled. "Naruto, what did Sakura say?" asked Kakashi. Naruto kept quiet for a while and replied "Nothing." Kakashi knew something was going on. "Are you sure?" asked Kakashi again. "Sakura asked me to bring back Sasuke." replied Naruto. Kakashi was not surprise. He knew Sakura would ask Naruto to bring back Sasuke, but he didn't expect Sakura to ask him now. "And what are you going to do about it, Naruto?" said Kakashi. "I'm not sure, Sensei." said Naruto. "I don't know if this will work, but I think you should go and find Jiraiya Sensei and ask him to teach you a few jutsus." suggested Kakashi. "Learn new jutsus? What for, Sensei?" asked Naruto. "Because you will need them to battle Sasuke later." replied Kakashi. Naruto was shocked. "Why do I have to battle Sasuke?" said Naruto. Kakashi too was unsure why. But what he knows is that Sasuke will not come back unless Naruto defeats him in a battle.
Naruto stared at the ceiling of his room. Naruto kept hearing Kakashi Sensei's words. "Because you will need them to battle Sasuke later." He did not know what Kakashi Sensei meant but he knows something bad will happen. 'Sasuke... where are you now? Why did you leave us Sasuke?'
Naruto went to Jiraiya Sensei's house and knocked on the door. *Knock, knock, knock* "Who is it?" shouted Jiraiya from inside. "It's me, pervy sage!" replied Naruto. "Come in!" said Jiraiya. Naruto opened the door and saw Jiraiya writing something on a piece of paper. 'Must be one of his silly novels that Kakashi Sensei likes to read.' Thought Naruto. "What are you doing standing there? Come on in." said Jiraiya. Naruto came inside and sat next to Jiraiya. "Pervy Sage, I would like to learn new jutsus from you. Kakashi Sensei said that you know a few cool jutsus." said Naruto. Jiraiya dropped his pencil and looked at Naruto. "What for?" asked Jiraiya. "Kakashi Sensei said that I need to learn those jutsus so I can battle Sasuke." explained Naruto. 'So it was true, Sasuke did leave the village.' thought Jiraiya. "Ok Naruto, I will teach you the first jutsu called 'Rasengan'. It is a very powerful jutsu created by the Fourth Hokage. It took him 3 years to master and perfect it." said Jiraiya. "Huh? 3 years?" shouted Naruto. "Yes, 3 years." replied Jiraiya. 'Woa, it took the Fourth Hokage 3 years. Can I master it?" thought Naruto.
"Ok, we will now learn the basics." said Jiraiya while taking a water ballon from the bag. "Here, take this." Jiraiya gave Naruto the water balloon. "What is this for, Pervy Sage?" asked Naruto. "You'll see." replied Jiraiya. After learning the first step, Naruto moved on to the next. Jiraiya came back with another bag filled with rubber balls. And after this step was mastered, Naruto moved on to the final step which Jiraiya said was the hardest. "Here, take this balloon." said Jiraiya. "Ahh, I'm exhausted. Can we take a break now?" pleaded Naruto. "Alright, we'll sleep in one of the motels in the city." said Jiraiya. Naruto couldn't shut his eyes. His eyes kept shaking. Jiraiya went somewhere and isn't back yet. Naruto tossed and turned the whole night but couldn't sleep. He kept thinking about Sasuke. "My dream is to kill a certain someone. And my dream is not a dream, it will be a reality." 'What did he mean?' thought Naruto. Who did he want to kill? Is it.. me?
Naruto had a problem mastering the final step. "The Pervy Sage was right, this last step is hard." said Naruto. After a few days, he finally mastered it. Jiraiya said it took him 1 week to master it and he was impressed. "Congratulations, Naruto. You could master it after all!" said Jiraiya. Naruto smiled wide. He was proud because he mastered the Fourth Hokage's jutsu in 1 week. "Ok, now we will go back to the Leaf Village." said Jiraiya. "But what about the other jutsus?" asked Naruto. "We will learn those later, you will have to look for Sasuke now before it's too late." explained Jiraiya. 'Too late? What does the Pervy Sage mean?'
They finally arrived. Naruto went to Grandma Tsunade's office to tell her something important. "Grandma Tsunade, I'll need all the help I can get from the guys." said Naruto. Tsunade looked at Naruto and said, "What for?" "To look for Sasuke." said Naruto. Tsunade was shocked. 'How is he going to look for Sasuke? And even if he does find him, how is he going to bring him back?' thought Tsunade. "Ok, I will appoint Shikamaru as the leader." said Tsunade. Naruto nodded.
A few hours later, Naruto, Shikamaru, Kiba, Neji, Shino, Chouji, Lee gathered at the Leaf Village gate. "This is such a brag, why did you call us, Naruto?" asked Shikamaru. "Listen, guys. I'll need your help looking for Sasuke. I promised Sakura that we will bring him back." They all looked at Naruto in the eye. "What? Us? Look for Sasuke? Naruto, do you know how much trouble that's going to cause us?" said Kiba. "Naruto promised Sakura that we will bring back Sasuke. So we will! Let's goo!" said Lee with his 'nice guy pose'. "This is a drag but since Lady Tsunade said yes, we will look for Sasuke." said Shikamaru.
"Ok, are you all ready?" asked Shikamaru. "Yes" replied the others. They went through the deep and dark forest searching everywhere. "Kiba, do you sense his smell?" asked Naruto. "I think I'm getting a familliar smell. It's somewhere in the Valley of the End." replied Kiba. "Good, Naruto, you go to the Valley of the End, we'll take care of the enemies." said Shikamaru. "Are you sure?" asked Naruto. "Yes, go on, Naruto." said Shino. Naruto left his friends and ran fast towards the Valley of the End.
Naruto couldn't believe his eyes when he saw Sasuke standing on a Statue which looked like Madara Uchiha. "Sasuke! Sasuke is that you?" shouted Naruto. "What are you doing here? Come and follow me home to the Leaf Village!" said Naruto. Sasuke began to laugh. "Naruto.. You've always been a naive little idiot. I don't need the Leaf Village, I'm going to follow Orochimaru to train. I don't need you either, Naruto!" said Sasuke.
