Disclaimer: Not mine Crys

Ok so here is the awsome story I have been bragging to write about (But was to lazy to actually get to) I have now started my Fanfiction...it...is...called!!!

Shinzui (In english it means life blood)

Spoliers up to chapter 328 (Latest chapter you'll see why it is chapter 328)

So anyway onto the chapter 1 of my story!!!

Chapter 1: Shisou (Shadow)

♥♥♥♥♥♥

It was so dark; she could only see a hint of light through the cracking dissolving soil which hid her from the death that awaited her.

It had been at least two years since the Shisou had attacked Konoha and created that damned barrier keeping all of the Konoha civilians inside of it, the only other place they could go besides Konoha was the core of the Shisou which is now occupying the forest of death.

She remembered what Shikamarus team told her, it had been horrible and just made things even worse for the village.

♥Flashback♥

"Sakura, we found the core of those damned monsters!" Shikamaru said in a troubled voice,

"Good where is it, is it where the Hokages tower used to be?" Sakura asked trying to guess where it was,"

"No sadly, it is in the forest of death where the tower used to be, it is now occupied by the core of the Shisou," Ino commented,

"Well it won't work if it is there; it controls the entire forest and tries to devour you alive!" Chouji said in a shaky yet calm voice,

"Well we need to just keep calm for now, have you gotten any contact from the other 9 hatches?" Sakura asked in a determined voice,

"Sadly no, there hasn't been any contact with anyone else ever since the Shisou started to guard almost every corner of Konoha".

♥End flashback♥

It was obviously morning by the amount of light shining in onto her bed, sadly Shikamarus team has been gone for a week now, Sakura was worried, she wanted to go out to see what had become of the village, to see if everyone was alright, to see it Naruto, Sasuke, Kakashi-sensei, Tsunade-sama, and anyone else who she hadn't seen in two years was ok.

It is horrible, she has to stay in here and wait for injured people who have been poisoned by the Shisou.

She hated it, why did it have to be her to figure out how to heal the injuries when no one else could? Why was it her that was treated like a princess above all? Why did people praise her for helping and saving them? She had done it all before yet now was a good reason to praise her, wasn't it?

She couldn't take it, she had to find them, she had to see them, she had to tell them everything she knew, she had to know if they were even…alive.

♥♥♥

"Naruto you dobe, get up and get ready, were going to see Shikamaru, his team found us, Kakashi is talking to him right now, if we don't hurry they will have to leave." Sasuke said in an impatient yet emotionless voice,

"Yeah yeah I'm up, I'm up, so Shikamaru is in what hatch now? Wasn't it hatch 4?" Naruto asked while putting his orange jacket on,

"Yeah we only have information about hatch's 4, 2, and 10, we just got word that the Akatsuki are coming to the village, and they broke the barrier somehow and got in." Sasuke said in an emotionless voice as if hiding the thoughts of his brother probably being their.

Naruto looked at the hardened soil floor then looked at Sasuke, he moved toward the door and went past Sasuke in a graceful manner, he opened the door and saw many people who occupied this hatch moving around and getting into their own places, some were packing which was a surpise to not only him but to Sasuke also, people didn't usually pack up unless they were brave enough or idiotic enough to actually go out into the Shisou infested village, as he looked at the people his attention was caught by a boy his age whose hair was up in a ponytail with a green vest jacket on talking to Kakashi-sensei.

"Shikamaru, hey how are you and hey Chouji, Ino!" Naruto yelled making a few people stop and stare.

"Hey Naruto, Sasuke, nice to see you guys again we got some information about the core I think you both should hear!" Shikamaru yelled trying to make him self loud enough so Naruto could hear over the ruckuses being made around them.

"Seems the core is in the forest of death, the Akatsuki have gone through and are in the village, the people occupying their group are Kisame, Deidara, Hidan, Kakazu, and Itachi, seems they are coming to get Naruto." Kakashi said while twirling a kunai in his hand and staring at Sasuke who was getting infuriated."

"So we have to get a group together and go after the core and keep Akatsuki off Narutos tail?" Sasuke asked after containing himself from running straight out of the hatch and going on a rampage.

Kakashi nodded, "It will be a split mission, Shikamarus team alone are going to go after Hidan and possibly Kakazu the-, as Kakashi said those words he was cut off by an angry Shikamaru "No doubt we will kill Kakazu he was in league with Hidan and helped kill…" Shikamaru stopped and motioned Kakashi to go on, Ino and Chouji looked down and held back their tears as they thought of how much it effected them when he died, Kakashi nodded, "Then team Shino will go after Deidara, Team Gai after Kisame, then Sai, Naruto, Sasuke, and I will go after the core and kill it, and Sasuke before you get infuriated with me, we are going to find Itachi and kill him, Shikamarus team will lead Hidan and Kakazu in-, Kakashi was then cut off by Naruto who was now angered as well.

"Why does Shikamarus team have to fight two Akatsuki, it's too dangerous, they will get killed!" Naruto said while being held back by Sasuke, "Naruto" Shikamaru said, "We need to go after them…we need to avenge him…they killed…Asuma." Shikamaru said while having a confident motivated look on his face.

♥♥♥♥♥

Omg i'm so sorry Asuma is killed off...it is true...manga chapter 328 Asumas death...he...is actually dead in the Naruto series!! Crys more I didn't want him too die but I had to have a reason to why it was only Shika, Ino, Chouji, going by themselves.
