CHAPTER 1

Bombs and Children's Rooms

"What did you just say, you MORON?!"

Oh crap. Run. Run.

"Consider yourself DEAD, do you hear me?"

The blonde began running as fast as he could. He never thought his one and only best friend would get so mad. It was just a joke, right? But when he found himself running in the middle of a park at midnight, he began to doubt it.

"NARUTO!" He heard her shouting his name. She chased after him and in that moment he regretted listening to his friend Konohamaru when he said he had an idea.

*FLASHBACK*

"OH, NO! Today is Sakura-chan's birthday and I forgot to buy her a present. What am I going to do now?" Naruto closed his beautiful blue eyes in order to focus on coming up with a solution.

"I have an idea. I got a couple of animal totems yesterday. Why don't you give her this panther totem? She kind of reminds me of one," Konohamaru said showing him the object he had in his hand. "You can have the fox totem, and you can say it's meant to be as a special connection between the two of you for being best friends."

"Hmmm," Naruto was processing the idea, "You're a genius!"

"Aaaand don't worry about the Birthday card, I'll do it. At the party, you will read it to her and you'll be known as the best friend in the whole world! "

With a solution in hand, he felt a huge relief inside him.

"Thank you man! I owe you one!"

I owe you a kick in the ass. Naruto thought sourly. Nobody starts a Birthday card with,

"Sakura,

Happy Birthday.

You're getting older

As your forehead gets wider..."

"STOP HIDING YOU IDIOT!" Sakura shouted, interrupting his thoughts. She wanted to find him but it was very difficult considering the circumstances they were into.

The park had trees everywhere. They couldn't see anything apart from the huge oak tree illuminated by the moonlight and surrounded by a lot of bushes filled with colorful flowers.

Naruto was desperate. He needed to find a place to hide until Sakura got tired or to, at least, rest for a couple of minutes. In that moment, the oak tree seemed like a fortified shelter.

Trying to be as quiet as possible, the blonde crouched to hide behind the bushes. He had to regain his breath before he started running again. When he was started to move again, he got stuck with some fallen branches and tripped. Naruto expected to hit the ground immediately, but it happened otherwise...

She was so furious at him. How dare he say those things to heron HER birthday? The only day where she can enjoy herself with her friends and even forget about everything she's been through lately (which was a lot since her father's death). HE was her best friend; he should have known that it would upset her. Was he masochis-

"AAAAAAAHHHHHH!"

Now what?! Sakura said to herself. That annoying scream of terror could only have come from the whiskered blonde.

"NARUTO! What have you done?!"

But she didn't get an answer.

"Get out of wherever you're hiding and face me like a man!"

Silence.

The pink haired could only hear a cricket's sound and started to get worried.

"This is not funny." She said with a weaker voice. Who was she trying to fool? Sakura was worried about her friend, and scared for herself. Who could blame her? This is a horrible place. If it wasn't for their little "hide-and-seek game" they would still be at her house.

Then she saw it. The great oak tree in the middle of everything, the best place to start looking for her fool of a best friend. It was easy to climb and the top would give her a perfect view of the park.

She ran across the field and started climbing the tree as soon as her legs allowed her. She suddenly stops and realizes that she sucks at climbing. She was so determined to get to the top she forgot all about it.

*CRACK*

The branch suddenly snaps in half and she starts freefalling to the ground.

'Is it going to hurt?' Was the first thing it came to her mind. Then she saw a giant pile of leaves that seemed soft enough to land on... Or so she thought, instead there was a hole big enough for a person to fit in.

'NARUTO!' She thought.

The moment he had been waiting for years was right there in front of him. Naruto watched the wonderful sunset nature was giving him. Not only him, but her as well.

It was the perfect summer afternoon. The perfect weather, the perfect spot in the perfect beach with the perfect girl.

His hands moved and accidently touched hers. His gaze met emerald eyes just a second later. He didn't know how much time they had been looking at each other. For Naruto, it felt like hours.

Their heads leaned in slowly. They were just inches away and their lips were as closed as he could have ever imagined, they closed her eyes and he moved forward in order to kis-

"NARUTO!"

He woke up and blinked a few times. The ground felt hard and cold. His blue eyes felt heavy, but little by little he began to open them. He saw a black silhouette in front of him.

"Oh my gosh. Thank God you're ok. I was so worried." He heard a soft sob and a pair of soft arms embracing him.

"Sakura-chan?" Naruto was still half asleep and he thought he was still dreaming. As soon as he recognized her best friend's voice, he decided to continue with what they were doing in his dream. He was ready to kiss her when...

*SLAP*

"WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU!?" Sakura said angrily. The worry that was driving her insane just a moment ago was now long gone. Instead, her mind was filled with thousands of ways to make him pay.

"That HURT, YOU KNOW!" He said while rubbing his cheek. Naruto couldn't feel half of his face. If he looked himself in the mirror, he was sure he'd have a red hand marked on his face. "Wh-what happened? Where are we?"

He took a look were surrounded by a deep, threatening darkness, only broken by the light that it came from the hole made by their bodies. With it, the whiskered boy could see some rotten leaves on the floor and a few bugs that would make Sakura scream if she were to see them. He got distracted by a distant shine, but his concentration got interrupted by his wide foreheaded best friend.

"I was running after you when I heard your scream. I looked for you but I couldn't see anything, so I climbed the oak tree to have a better sight. I fell on this huge hole and found you here unconscious." Sakura explained with her arms folded.

As soon as she explained everything came flooding back to him. He was trying to flee from her when he fell off the tree too.

"Does anybody know we are here?"

"What do you think? If someone knew, we would already have received help. I tried to call but I must have dropped my cell phone." She said. "Guess whose fault it is..."

"Maybe I still have mine with m-"

"Don't bother. While you were dreaming about WHO KNOWS WHAT," She said reminding what he did after waking up. "I looked for it. Guess you left it at my house."

Naruto checked his pockets but they were empty. Sakura was right. He didn't have time to take anything with him after what he did; if he had he would most probably be in hell right now. He wondered how deep she had searched his clothes, but there were more important matters to think about.

"Well, that means we have to find our way out by ourselves." He stood up and cleaned up his clothes a little. The black jeans he was wearing were full of dust. He offered Sakura a hand to help her stand up. She took it but she fell back down due to the sudden pain in her arm.

"Are you alright? Are you hurt?" asked Naruto in a worried tone. What a terrible friend he had been! He hadn't asked her if she was okay. He was very surprised he didn't get a single scratch after that kind of fall.

"Yeah, I think so." she replied, but her face told otherwise. It was obvious she was in pain.

"I promise you we're going to get out of here soon," Naruto said trying to comfort her. "Believe it!"

**** 2 Hours later****

The seventeenth year old girl sighed. "We're NEVER getting out of this place!"

"Aww c'mon, Sakura-chan, maybe in the morning we can find a way."

"The morning?! Are you... are you suggesting we spend the night together?!" She blushed right after suggesting it, but she tried to hide it in the darkness "This-This is all your fault for running away in the first place!"

"Well EXCUSE me for trying to stay alive," He shot back. "It's YOUR fault for coming after..." But then he felt her hand over his mouth.

"Shhh, look there, there's something shining, it might even be my cell phone!" She said pointing at a blue light that it came from the farthest place she could see. They ran towards what seemed like their only hope. Unfortunately, what they found came as a disappointment to them.

There was a giant blue rock lying down and it looked like it had fallen from a really high place due to the marks on the ground. "Is...This a meteor?" He asked excited. It looked like so cool, especially with all the smoke that came out it.

"WOW that was a pretty technical word for you Naruto..."

"Don't be so mean... Anyway, should we get close to it?"

"I'm not so sure... It might be dangerous, don't you think?"

"Naah! What could possibly go wrong? It's just a piece of...wow...It's getting brighter as we step closer."

"See? I told you, we shouldn't mess with it. What if... What if it suddenly explodes? We might even die!"

"I don't think that'll ever happen, it's just too cute to be a bomb! It's like something you put in a child's room, except for its size and the fact it's all burned"

Okay… Mental note: do not let Naruto near a child's room. The pink-haired girl thought.

"Look, it's totally harmless," He said while getting closer to what they supposed it was a space rock.

"Stop right there you idiot! We have to think this through."

"You're overreacting, Sakura-chan. It's completely harmle-"'

Oh no... Why now? Of every time she's prevented me from doing something, why does she have to be right NOW? Naruto thought.

The ground started crumbling around the stone, which was shining more than they had ever seen (which wasn't a lot, either) and a light came out of the rock and went up into the sky. They could even be found with its help.

"WOW, what's that?!" said the blond pointing at the light that came from her chest.

"Wh-What are you LOOKING AT you filthy PERV?!" She was running out of patience and losing her temper.

However, this time she was the one making a mistake. She lowered her head following Naruto's gaze and noticed a blue light coming from her blouse. It was the strangest thing that has happened today, considering what they've been through.

She screamed and turned her eyes to him, pleading for help. Instead, she only found a light on his chest too. Luckily, as he had his shirt wide open, she noticed the source of the lights. The totems! Where the hell did Konohamaru get them? But that was the least of their worries now.

"You've been wearing the totem I gave you all this time?!" Naruto asked, pretty moved by that fact.

"WHERE THE HELL DID YOU GET THEM?!" Sakura shouted. She was pissed.

"You know, that's not a really polite question... But if you really want to know, Konohamaru said he had-"

"That stupid little BRAT! How come you trusted him of all people?"

"It looked like a good idea, I didn't have much time and needed to get you something, it was your birthday after all."

"Wait, are you saying that you forgot to get me something?!"

"If you say it like that it sounds really harsh, it was more like...hey what's happening?!"

"Oh don't think I'll be that easy to deceive, you idi- hey! What's going on?! "

And that was the last they could hear of each other, apart from their shouts of terror. They were lifted into the air and dragged into an enormous dark hole generated by the shining stone, which disappeared and took away everything, including the light emanated by the rock and Sakura and Naruto.
