Saving Tsukibara of the Sand: NARUTO FANFIC

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, neither am I gaining any profit from this article. If I owned Naruto I would be renting a room in Bill Gates mansion. But... Enjoy and reviews will be much appreciated.

Prologue

Harugo Uzumaki ran full speed down the street. This was one race he had to win. If he let that Uchiha win again he would never forgive himself. He checked behind him, searching the roads for his rival, Keiyoko Uchiha. ''Not behind, neither above'' thought the young Uzumaki, son of the Sixth Hokage, Uzumaki Naruto. He turned his attention back to the road, but was running too fast to stop himself careening into a stall of crates full of apples. He stood up, dazed, and watched as a figure approached.

''Allways keep your eyes on the road'' said Keiyoko, patting his rival on the shoulder. Just then there was a poof of white smoke. ''Okay, guys, what did you do this time ?'' asked the ANBU ninja. ''I ran into an apple stall'' said Harugo, scratching the back of his head. ''I tried to stop him, but he wouldn't listen'' said Keiyoko, ignoring the death-stare from Harugo. ''So I suppose I have to take you to the Hokage...again!'' said the ninja, yawning behind his mask. ''Whats papa been up to recently ?'' asked Harugo. ''Couldn't tell you if I knew, kiddo'' said the ANBU, and all three vanished in a cloud of wide smok

Harugo and Keiyoko both bowed their heads. ''You need to stop destroying things, or the ANBU will punish you, there is only so much I can do to protect you'' said Naruto, his feet resting on his desk. ''It won't happen again, Lord Hokage'' said Keiyoko, bowing low. ''I hope...'' Before the Hokage could finish, a tall ninja leapt in through the open window, the ninja wore an ANBU mask, a sabretooth cat with flame-like markings stretching across one half of it. ''Ah, Sasuke, right on time, as usual'' said Naruto, standing to greet his old friend. Sasuke looked down and removed his mask, an intimidating look etched on his. ''You see, me and Sasuke have planned a test, an task to see which of you is the stronger'' said Naruto and picked up two small scrolls. ''You will take this to our friends in the Hidden Sand Village'' said Naruto, handing a scroll each to the children. The two bowed to children bowed and turned to leave. ''Oh, one last thing'' said Naruto, sitting back down in his chair. ''You'll be going alone'' said Naruto, and watched the two Gennin leave. ''You really think there up for this ?'' asked Sasuke, stepping out, onto the window ledge. ''The elders believe so'' said Naruto, as Sasuke leapt down, off the window.

''But I have a strange feeling this is going to set something a whole lot bigger in motion'' said Naruto, turning to look over the Hidden Leaf Village.
