Hello! I think this chapter is the better of the two! Things are heating up!

Disclaimer: I don't own anything of Naruto.

I stood facing the two S-ranked ninja; I should have kept walking. I should have ignored their presence and went straight to the town and lost them. Then again I should have done a lot of things. This could be one of the worst ideas I have had in the last 3 years…

"What was your first clue?" asked Inner.

I ignored her. I needed to show that I wasn't this little girl who couldn't handle herself. I was Hokages apprentice. I was a Konoha kunoichi. I was a medic Nin from the leaf one of the best under Tsunade. I trained under one of the legendary Sanin. I asked to be her apprentice shortly after sasuke had left the village and right before Naruto had left on his two year journey with Jiriya, another Sanin. I was tired of falling behind my fellow shinobi, my friends and my teammates. I could do more than handle myself now thanks to Tsunade. I was more insulting her now with my defection; she didn't understand my choice. But she let me leave.

"You could always go back to Konoha…let boys handle it." Whispered Inner.

I scoffed. "Without some sort of progress? Or even some sort of information on the Akatsuki? I don't think so." I replied. Inner disappeared apparently dissatisfied with my answer. "Fine. Be that way" I said stubborn as always.

As I watched Itachi, I started thinking about sasuke again. I was nowhere near his level. I would never be. Nevertheless, if I could take him down at least I would be happy even if it meant losing my life in the process, which probably would be the outcome.

"Kami, What is taking these guys so long-" I started mumbling. But then it hit me.

"Shit!" There was no way I, the queen of Gen Jutsu was, in fact trapped in one. I quickly made the handsign and my chakra surged.

"Release!"

When the air around me shimmered, I groaned inwardly. I looked quickly around looking for the men. They were nowhere to be found. I grabbed a kunai and closed my eyes looking for any sort of chakra signature.

My senses expanded as I thought about my stupid situation.

These guys would never leave on an open invitation. Especially not knowing who I was and whom I had connections to. The Nine-Tailed Jinchuriki, Naruto Uzumaki…that's who they were after. If the Intel was right that is. It was now painstakingly obvious why they were following me. They wanted Naruto.

"I knew you should have kept walking." Inner chastised me. It was unnecessary since I already knew the stupidity of my actions.

Where were they? Those god dammed ninja we're hiding their chakra signatures I was sure of it. "I told you…you should have kept walking. But then again when do you ever listen to me?" That was it. "Would you just-" I started losing my focus to concentrate on Inner.

"Hello Sakura-San" Whispered a hot voice in my ear.

My stomach dropped. "Shit…"

Well That's Chapter 2! Pleas Review!

Arigatou,
