Title: Sakura's Summons
Summary: She couldn't protect herself against the two chuunin that attacked her, she tried to scream for help but no words came. Then she remembered a jutsu that she had just read about earlier that day, which could possibly help her. Too bad it wasn't what she expected.
Pairings: One sided Narusaku

Prologue
"The summoning technique is a space-time ninjutsu that allows the summoner to transport animals or other things across long distances instantly. One method involves just hand seals and blood. With this, before an animal summoning can be performed, a prospective summoner must first sign a contract with a given species. The contract can come in the form of a scroll or a tattoo, which is signed in the contractor's own blood and once signed, is valid even after the contractor's death. After this, they need only perform the hand seals, offer an additional donation of blood (biting the summoner's finger being the most common way to obtain blood), and use the same hand they signed the contract with to summon the creature. The amount of chakra used during the summoning determines how big the summoned creature can be. If a user attempts to summon an animal without first signing a contract, the user will be teleported to the home of the animal they have a natural affinity for."
"When an animal is summoned it is transported from its place of residence to the summoner's location. Once summoned, the animal can perform a task or help the user in battle. The summon is not required to help the user, and may be more of a hindrance than an ally. In addition, summons are able to summon their summoner. They may also wear a forehead protector, suggesting a loyalty to only one village."
Sakura sighed as she placed her book down upon her lap and glanced out at the moon which was starting to glow brighter with each waning hour.
"I wonder if that summoning technique is useful," Sakura wondered as she thought about the dogs she had saw Kakashi summon on the bridge.
Sakura brought her thumb up to her mouth and bit contemplatively on her nail. 'Naruto and Sasuke have improved so much since our days at the academy. Compared to them I am nothing,' she groaned.
Sakura reread the passage and practiced the hand signals again. 'I wonder what animal affinity I have,' she wondered aloud as she allowed the book to fall off of her bed and hit the floor was a soft thump.
"Sakura honey, can you do mommy a favor and run to the store and get some more milk. I am afraid that we are all out, and you know how your father gets when the milk is gone," Sakura's mother said with a soft smile.
Sakura smiled back at her mother as she crawled off of her bed and ran her hands over her hair smoothing the stray strands. "Ya mom, sure thing."
oOoOooOoOoOoOoOoOoo
"I can't believe that milk has gone up two cents since the last time I had to buy it," Sakura grumbled as she stared at the receipt in disbelief.
Sakura sighed as she shoved the receipt into her pocket and took a turn down a dark alleyway in hopes of reaching home faster because of it.
"Hey baby, where are you going?"
Sakura's eyes widened slightly as he clutched her bags in front of her chest tightly and started to quicken her pace.
"Aw come on, girl, don't be that way. We just want to talk."
Sakura felt a hand clamp down upon her shoulder as she was forced to turn around. "W-what do you want?"
The two chuunin boys looked at each other with a smirk. "We just want to get to know you a little better."
Sakura looked at the two in disgust as she shrugged off his hand. "Get lost," she spat before turning on her heel and walking away.
Sakura gasped as she was grabbed and thrown up against the side of the wall. "It's considered rude to walk away when someone is talking to you," the boy warned as he leaned in towards her.
"Get off me," Sakura screamed as she tried to push the bigger boy away from her.
The other boy laughed as he grabbed her face and forced her to kiss him.
Sakura attempted to push him away as she struggled in his grip. "I said get off of me," she screamed.
"Hey, now there is no reason to scream," the boy said as he clamped his hand down over her mouth and leaned in close enough for her to feel his hot breath on her face.
Tears streamed down Sakura's face as she silently called Sasuke's name over and over again in hopes that he might suddenly appear and save her.
As the two boys threw her down on the ground, harsh reality kicked in. Sasuke wasn't going to come and save her this time. She had to figure out a way to save herself. Sakura inched back as her mind raced to come up with a way to save herself from these two chuunin.
'The summoning technique,' she thought to herself excitedly as she tried to recall exactly what she needed to do to summon her savior.
"You're a strange one," one of the chuunin mused as he ran a blunted kunai across her face in a teasing manner.
Sakura gazed into the eyes of her tormentor before she brought her hand up towards the fresh cut and covered her thumb in her blood.
The chuunin stared at her funny as she started to perform a series of hand signals and then slammed her hand down upon the ground.
"Hmmmm, so you're a shinobi, eh? I don't know what you just tried to do but whatever it is. I am sure it wo- OW," the chuunin screamed in pain as his arm was grabbed and twisted behind his back in a submissive gesture.
'It worked,' she thought to herself in awe as she watched her summons rise up from the smoke and attack the two ninjas that had tried to assault her.
Sakura frowned as the smoke cleared and she noticed that her summons looked more human like than animal.
"Sakura, are you ok," her summons asked with quiet concern.
Sakura's eyes widened as she got a good look at the man who was now kneeling in front of her.
'This is my summons,' she wondered as she took in his 6'3 well built frame. He had intense blue eyes and spiky blond hair that he wore in a low ponytail. He had a chiseled face and three strange whisker like markings on each cheek. On his head he wore a black Konaha headband. His clothes were simple: a pair of black shinobi pants, shoes, and a long-sleeved shirt, and over that he wore a white overcoat that had orange flames at the bottom of it.
Sakura blushed as she watched him quietly look her over to make sure she wasn't hurt.
"W-who are you," Sakura asked.
"Sakura, don't you recognize me," the blond man asked with disappointment laced in his words.
Sakura shook her head slowly.
The man grimaced. "The name is Naruto Uzumaki, shichidaime of Konaha, and I guess your new summons."

Reviews are the best :D
A/N:
Just an idea that I had floating around in my brain, let me know if you like the idea and want to see more. The time setting is after the Wave Arc before the chuunin exams, and yes little Naruto is still around he doesn't disappear at all.
Anyway I hope you like it and don't forget to leave a review.
