The Revenge
I do not own any Naruto stuff.
Naruto has just recovered from his injuries sustained by the Leaf Villages ninja and is training for his revenge…
"Uh." Naruto grunted after throwing his numerous shurikan into a homemade target. Once again he had hit with all but one shurikan. He was getting frustrated.
"AAAAAAAGHH! If I can't hit the target every time I'll never be able to extract my revenge on that cursed Hidden Leaf Village and its pesky ninja!!" Not wanting to further disappoint himself Naruto contented himself by going for a twenty mile jog through the forest.
Meanwhile at the Leaf Village….
Sasuke was walking through the Village enjoying himself when the summons came. A ninja in all black appeared as if out of air right in front of him and said "You are to come to Lady Sunata's briefing room immediately!"
"Whatever." Was the reply the black clad ninja received. Sasuke quickly made his to the room and was surprised to notice many other shenobi already there.
"Alright now that everyone is here the meeting may begin." Sunata announced, "Now as you already know Naruto was band from the Village a month ago. At the time we thought he would just go off in a lonely hole and die, but we have reason to believe that he is working with ninja from the Sand Village." That drew a gasp from the assembled crowd. "I have gathered you here to hunt down Naruto and his band of evil ninja while I stay and build an army of elites to attack and destroy the Sand Village!" Another gasp. Destroy the Sand Village! It was unheard of! But what of the benefits?
"Now everyone on the hunting party each has his or her own specific skill so everyone will have a different job. When I dismiss come by to the front to receive your info packets. Now dismisses and Good Luck." Sunata paused and then, "Oh you depart Tomorrow at 0200 hours." And that was it. The shenobi that composed the hunting party consisted of Sasuke, Sakura, Shikamaru, Choji, Ino and Hinata.
Naruto slept fitfully that night. He was having that recurring nightmare that had plagued him often from the time he left the Village. In the dream he was pursued by a group of ninja through a burning forest. He would trip over and upturned root and be set upon by the ninja. Instead of dying though he would be tortured and hurt for until the dream ended when he would awaken. He awoke drenched in sweat and set about getting breakfast.
"We're on his trail." Sasuke stated. The trail was easy enough to follow it was of broken twigs, batted bushes and large quantities of blood. "And we're catching up."
The ninja raced through the woods until they came upon a campsite. Knowing this was Naruto's they settled in to wait.
After eating his breakfast of squirrel and berries Naruto began his training. As always he started of practicing Justsu in a nearby clearing. After that he did push ups and other exercises. Then he did his kunai training back at the campsite. He didn't notice the rustling bushes and he began his target practice. The target was a piece of wood made to resemble Sasuke. As he got around to the one exercise that he hadn't mastered he heard a cough and was instantly on the alert. He stood stalk still for half and hour waiting. After finally deciding it was just his imagination he decided to continue training. He once again missed the target with a kunai but this time he was awarded with a cry of pain. Instantly he grabbed several kunai and prepared to fight.
After the cough the entire party had gone still and silent. They knew that if they struck in daylight then Naruto would inflict casualties upon them so they had decided to wait till night, but now they might have to fight if Naruto decided to investigate. Thankfully though he didn't. Naruto continued training and that's when the kunai struck.
"Aaaaaaaaaghhhhh!!" Sakura cried in pain and surprise. Instantly Hinata rushed from cover and attacked Naruto with everyone else following closely behind, everyone but Sakura that is. She had been struck in the eye and the kunai and penetrated deep.
Naruto quickly defended himself and fought hard. Sasuke though was quickly on him and the fight escalated. After knocking out most of the attack party or disabling them it came down to Sasuke vs. Naruto. Sasuke though overpowered Naruto with his sharinghan. Naruto fell to the ground and appeared dead. Sasuke to worn out to check quickly gathered up his friends and Sakura and high-tailed it back to the Village.
