I don't own Naruto. That honor belongs to Kishimoto.
AN: Just a little short that I came up with. Enjoy.
The blonde Namikaze heir ducked under the one of the flying forms that had gotten close enough to take a shot at him. He looked over at his compatriot, Uchiha Sasuke. "What should we do?"
Sasuke jumped over another one of the forms, this one going into a steep dive from a balcony above them. "We need to make for the roofs!"
Naruto nodded and the two ducked into an alley way. There were two ladders leading to two separate roofs. "We might have a better chance if we split up."
"Good idea," the Uchiha heir said.
The two boys were each almost to the top of their separate ladders when a shadow fell over each of them.
"You're mine now!" the two forms shrieked in unison.
The stricken boys threw themselves at a ledge not too far from the ladders, barely getting their feet over onto the roof to avoid the forms falling to the ground.
"There they are!" a voice called from the ground.
"Sasuke run!" Naruto yelled as he pulled his feet under him and took off, Sasuke on his tail.
They ran across the village rooftops, barely avoiding the pursuers dogging their steps. As they passed by a low hanging tree, each of the boys ripped off a thin, yet sturdy branch.
"There's too many of them!" Sasuke cried, sweat pouring down his pale face, and matting his raven hair to his head. "We'll never escape! They've blocked off the routes to the estates!"
Naruto pointed up to the highest building. "Up there, we can make a stand until our reinforcements arrive!"
Without waiting another moment the boys ran to the tower and climbed as fast as they could, all thoughts of safety flying from their minds as the shrieks followed them to the top of the spire.
When the boys crested the rise, they stood in the center, back to back, while holding their sticks at the ready as if they were swords. Within moments the first of the forms leaped from the edge to the pair. Naruto swung true, sending the form flying off the edge, only for two more to take its place.
The boys fought valiantly, fending off their foes. But for every one struck down, two more took its place.
"There's no end to them!" Naruto yelled.
"Where are the reinforcements?" Sasuke cried out, before one of the forms got inside his guard.
There was an excited shriek from the forms and Sasuke was pulled to the edge as the forms started to retreat. The Uchiha caught the edge of the roof with his finger tips.
"Sasuke!" Naruto yelled, jumping for his comrade, grabbing his hand.
"Naruto," Sasuke gasped. "Tell Sakura I love her."
Naruto had no time to respond as he jumped back from another of the forms reaching for him, only for Sasuke to pulled down.
"SASUKE!" the blonde cried.
In his anguish, he didn't notice the form leaping at him from behind until it was almost on him. His eyes widened as he realized he didn't have enough time to react. He was saved as a foot kicked the form off the building and two girls landed in front of him.
"Naruto-kun!" the purple haired Hyuuga Hinata ran to Naruto and held him tight.
"Naruto, where's Sasuke-kun?" the pink haired Haruno Sakura asked, kneeling next to the shaken blonde.
"He fell," Naruto said distantly, his chest shaking in horror and grief. "They got him. They got him and I couldn't stop them!"
"Who did?" Sakura asked, tears leaking out of her emerald eyes. "Who took my Sasuke-kun?"
"Them," Naruto said. "T-the... fangirls..."
