Authors note: Okay I don't think anyone was able to tell me where this came from before I posted it up… So I shall give you all more time and give you the next Chapter.
Here is a Hint: Here is the Japanese title: 大激突!幻の地底遺跡だってばよ
And I am telling you now Sakura in this series is going to be OC at times, as to why? You will have to continue on to the next Season… =P And you can guess if you would like, I may give out hints throughout this series.

It was a bright and sunny day outside of Konoha, as a small animal scurries along the forest floor. Up, over, below, and through the roots this animal scurried even up a branch to get to a grassland. Walking into the grassy plain two red eyes hiding behind a dark brown fur like mask popped out over the yellow flowers followed by four whiskers, a wet black nose, two tanned ears, its muzzle was tan as well as a diamond smack down in the middle of the dark brown like mask. Its body was the tanned color, and if you looked closely you could see his two front paws were a dark brown as well. Brining his nose up to sniff around before jumping further into the grassland area, (A/U: ohh a hint) its bushy dark brown tail could be seen for a split second before it was under a rock. Pocking his head out of there, the animal sniffed here and there now in a mossy/rocky vine like area. Spinning its head around it found what he smelled and brought its two front paws up to eat the tan-ish looking treats.
Behind him a rather peculiar looking blue eyed, and blond haired creature smiled…his plan going well. If you looked carefully . . . well if you looked at this creature you could spot out above its eyes was a dull gray looking Konoha forehead protector…and covering him a unique looking blue and orange jump suit. Not too far from him pink haired poked up above some rocks followed by green eyes a curious look on her face. Finally on a side of a tree not too far from the other two a brunette haired creature with dull brown eyes and a Konoha vest on peered over at the furry.
Continuing on its food route the furry ate some more as the three figures stood watching…waiting to pounce. The pink haired and Blond were behind the same tree while the brunette hiding behind the tree opposite of them. Scurrying past the three due to the lack of food, the furry left behind those stalking him as they continued observing. As the furry followed the smell of food, the figures looked down at the camouflaged trap they set up that the food ended at. Walking up to the food, the furry looked left before jumping down away from the food and toward another. Biting down on that he continued on his little journey as the blond grinned and spoke. "All right it's heading towards it!" He mused in a low whisper before the pink haired figure spoke up. "Hey, hush up this is important." Brining her finger to her mouth to emphasize she huffed lowly as the blond merely looked on, smile still intact. Going over a rock, the fury munched down on three skillfully placed snacks. Before growing curious at the structure above him…brining its paws up on it, without a warning the structure fell down. Frightening the furry as it jumped away from the remaining food and away from the loud noise. Not even heading in a real path it hurdled over a couple of rocks turning left and up the hill looking for cover. Finding what looked to be like a secure cave like structure it darted in without a second thought, and just as it did this 'cave' fell down revealing a stuffed like furry on the top of it.
"He went in." The brunette spoke as the blond ran from behind the tree with a bag yelling something along the lines of 'we did it.' Jumping down from her hiding spot the pink haired female followed the two toward the cage. Kneeling down she lifted up the trap slowly before the furry weasel jumped onto her shoulders stopping onto her right as she petted the animal.
"Ani~ You're a good boy right?" She mused at the animal as he squeaked some to the petting.
"The back leg has black fur. Alright it seems like there is not mistake." The brunette spoke looking at a picture while the blond grinned much like a fox before bringing his arms, and case, behind his head. "Naruto the cage." The Brunette finished just before Naruto cracked up laughing having to clutch his stomach before letting go and speaking…in a way to the furry.
"That's so stupid." He began pointing at the trap twice before pulling the case under his left arm and continuing, "To be caught in this lame trap!" Instantly he upset the furry as it snarled and ruffled its fur the pink haired female glanced over at it before Naruto looked up. "Huh? What is it?" He then asked as the pink haired female stopped petting the animal.
"Hey, Naruto did you do something?" She questioned instantly suspecting he had done something while she and the brunette hadn't been watching.
Confused Naruto spoke up, "Something I just…" Was all the blond could get out before the furry barked and jumped onto his face biting and scratching. "Hey, ow! Ow!" The blond spoke as he lost his footing and fell back, before the furry ran off with him in chase.
"Stupid! Don't let it get away Naruto!" The brunette first spoke up instantly following the Blond, not wanting to have to start from the beginning…again.
"If you let him get away, I am going to personally kick your ass Naruto!" The pink haired female yelled right behind the brunette already holding fists waiting for the inedible.
Running down the top of the hill Naruto slid down and grabbed the animal, as it let out hisses. In the process the blond fell into one of their own traps, and ended up hanging upside-down by a rope from a tree. How much did that even bring back memories for him. He let go of the animal just as he reached the top, the furry bit down onto the male's cheek not wanting to fall. Catching up to the two the brunette kneeled down and placed a hand on his forehead. While the female stood there shaking her head and tapping her foot. (first difference.) Somewhat smiling, whether it be from the animal holding onto his skin, he being upside-down, or out of pure exhaustion the male set there and swung to and fro before coming to a stop.

Walking back to where the client was a falcon flew above cawing here and there. "To go through all that trouble to find him for such a small amount is a letdown." Naruto spoke he up front of the two carrying the animal on hi
"Its our mission to find him and take him back to his master after all." Shikamaru spoke in a matter-of-fact tone. As he stood next to the pink haired Sakura who was currently gazing up at the sky dully, not paying too much attention to the males.
"It wasn't a cat, you know." She stated, before smiling and running up behind the Blond to the case and opening it. "They say it was a ferret." Looking inside she decided to continue, "It looks pretty cute if you ask me. Such a cute face." The ferret looked up and seemed to be glad to see the female before Naruto took his turn to talk.
"In any case, lets return him quickly, then go back home to the village." Was all he could say as Shikamaru now behind the both of them gave the pink haired kunoichi a questionable look. Seeing this from the corner of her eye the female quickly shut the pack before standing next to Naruto and smiling with her eyes shut. The group stopped as their route narrowed.
"When we cross that bridge…" Shikamaru started, pulling out a paper to glance over directions. As Sakura stopped next to the male…and Naruto a good three feet ahead, just as he was about to speak once more he was interrupted.
"Alright!" Naruto yelled running up ahead as Sakura and Shikamaru paused for a second or two to stare at the blond wide eyed and mouths hung at his sudden outburst. Shikamaru being the first to recover hurried after him first.
"Wait, Naruto!" Well if you consider taking a step following that is. Turning back and looking at the two the male had taken a good couple steps across the bridge before he spoke.
"Let's cross this and finish the mission as soon as…" he started still running before falling into a lose plank. Luckily with quick reflexes he grabbed onto one of the ones that hadn't broke under his weight and hung there watching the planks fall down… and down… and down… and down into the black foggy pit bellow. Now with a pretty scared facial feature, he hung onto a rope and swung there for a minute mumbling gibberish to himself before the pink haired ninja walked up and looked down at him.
"If you sat back and listened you would have known that this bridge was dangerous." She spoke much like her silver haired sensei would. "Not that I care too much about what happens to you…but we need the ferret to finish the mission." She continued looking down at him and smiling with both her eyes shut. As Shikamaru stood back behind the two looking at the map.
"Sakura-Chan, that's too much…"Naruto whined as she pulled him up before the two looked back at the brunette.
"Shikamaru is there something wrong?" She asked obviously faking a look of surprise. Shikamaru took note of this but said nothing, while Naruto continued on panting still shocked from one of his many near-death experiences.
"Yeah." The male replied looking back at the surroundings as Sakura walked up and over to him. "The client's village is on the other side of that field…" he added, "But doesn't it look like there's something wrong?" Looking out at the field Sakura at first simply glanced over it and opened her mouth to speak, but shut it just as quickly before cocking her head to the right some and giving it another good look. Then she glanced with a curious expression Shikamaru couldn't tell if it was fake or not.
"Something. Wrong?" She asked glancing over at him.
"Even though it's the afternoon I don't sense any people." He continued ignoring to ask the female why it was she was acting how she was. Looking back over at the hill the female sat and listened, making comments that the brunette had more potential and skill that Naruto.
"Now that you mention it…" She spoke up looking dully at the field once more, with Naruto standing between herself and Shikamaru. He holding the same expression as her, holding back to urge to push him off the bridge for mocking her she kept quiet as he spoke.
"Is that really so?" Naruto then asked no longer able to hold back the urge slowly the female brought up her fist for the first time this entire mission and hit the Blond so hard his headband slipped off and hit him after he hit the floor. Still she was looking at the village in a bored view as Shikamaru looked over at her from his peripherals, she had hit him too harder than her usual self. Even if she had been training with Tsunade for a couple of months, she couldn't possibly be that strong. Continuing on and now jumping through the tree's Shikamaru brought his hand over to the communication devices before speaking.
"From here on we will switch to a reconnaissance pattern." He began, "I'll head to the west of the forest, so Sakura and Naruto, you two go the opposite way!" As he finished on still pushing forward he heard the two reply before he went to his thoughts. It would be nice if this doesn't become troublesome.
Jumping up a cliff with Naruto in the lead Sakura followed behind not to enthusiastically, reaching the top the two stealthily looked up passed the field from behind some brush. "Just before the forest, got it?" Sakura spoke as the ferret started to act up. Turning toward the animal the female's once bored expression turned to one of concern, she hadn't been the only one to notice…but she couldn't speak up, it was bad enough her persona was out of whack, which meant she forcefully held herself down and waited for the obvious.
"Hey your too loud." Naruto growled looking back at the animal. Deciding to speak up the female now held a curious expression.
"I wonder what's with him all of a sudden." She stated, rather than questioned ignoring the obvious presence behind them. Knowing that she could only do so much until someone aside from Shikamaru caught on…and the second Naruto did all hell would break out, and that is what she and the other female were trying to prevent.
