My Black Shadow

A/N: I'm tired…

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, Masashi Kishimoto does... TT Because If I did, there would be more sasusaku

Pairings: sasusaku naruhina and little bits of others...

You guys do know what "datebayo!" is right? It's just a phrase naruto says almost after every sentence… I don't think it has a real meaning.

Chapter 2: New City

"We barely got passed that one, Naruto." Sakura sighed.

Naruto hummed happily, his hands on the back of his head. " We're fine Sakura-chan!" Sakura slung her head. "That's what you say…"

It's been about two minutes since they "escaped" Konoha. Naruto and sakura had they're packed bags for the new mission. They were about to walk out the arch to Konoha when the two guarding spoke to them.

" On a mission you two?" One of them asked. Naruto and Sakura turned around.

"Uh…yeah!" Naruto replied.

"It's only you guys? Shouldn't you have someone else with you?" The other one questioned. (A/N: I'm sorry, I have no Idea what their names are. So lets just call them…neko and tako, if you know what that means, cheers for you.)

" Um…" Naruto hesitated. "uh…" Naruto poked sakura in the back for a cry for "help"

Sakura immediately spoke. "Everyone else is out on missions! So we were the only two left, so Tsunade-sama had no other choice and…"

" Oh, I see." Tako said. (rofl)

" Who's that?" Neko said pointing to the boy who was running towards them.

"It's a…" Tako started "green…flash…"

"Naruto run!" Sakura tugged on naruto's backpack handle. "Gah--!" Naruto was pulled back by Sakura's strength.

"Sakura-san! Sakura-san!" Lee waved back and forth. Sakura sighed.

" Um, Lee I'm kind of in a hurry right now…" Rock Lee stopped in front of them.

" But the hokage has asked you, Hinata-san and I to see her! At last finally you and I will go on a mission together, I'm sure this will be…" A river of tears flowed down his face. " THE BEST MOMENTS OF MY LIFE!"

"Let's go Sakura-chan…" Naruto whispered while Lee was ranting about something along the lines of: Gai Sensei, Youth, Love, and Gaara. No one knew what he was talking about anymore.

"Wait… So that means-" Tako turned around, but Naruto and Sakura were gone. (A/N: when I say tako, I mean tako, not taco. See the difference?)

"Naruto, If we ever run away from Konoha again, we're going to have a plan next time. Your 'casually walk out' thing did not run smoothly,"

"But It worked!" Naruto grinned. Sakura slung her head. This was not going to work well…

The sun beat down on the two as the barely walked through the hot desert. Why did they walk to a desert anyway? "Naruto…" He still swayed his head back and forth, like It was almost touching the ground. Naruto had his jacket around his waist and they were walking for over 5 hours.

" Let's take a break…" Sakura suggested. Without answer Naruto fell to the ground under a slightly shady tree.

"Ah…"

Sakura took out her water container and gulped down some water. Naruto was about to do the same, when he realized, his container had been dry.

"Uh, sakura-chan?" Naruto said. Sakura turned to him, "what now?"

"I'm out of water…" Sakura sighed. "Fine then," she passed the water container to Naruto. "Don't drink it all though," Naruto grinned and gladly took it.

Sakura looked off to the distance, and placed her hand above her eye so she could see further. "Hey… Is that…?" She stood up. "It is! Naruto- A city up ahead!"

" Huh…?" Naruto looked up from drinking. " A city! A City! YAHO!" Naruto dropped everything and left the shady tree running.

"Na- NARUTO!" Sakura called out. She quickly lifted everything Naruto left and started running after him.

"Naruto! Can't you wait until I- Naruto?" Sakura started panting. But he was staring at the city below.

"R-r-r-r-r-r-r-r…" Naruto said. "What are you trying to say?"

"Ram-men. Over there…" Sakura sighed, "is that all?" naruto nodded silently.

"Fine then, let's go… I'm hungry anyways." Naruto screamed in happiness and speeded down to the small ramen shop in town…

" One miso ramen please!" Naruto ordered.

"For me too." Sakura said. The waiter nodded and walked off. This restaurant wasn't like the one in Konoha, it was an actual room, pretty large at that, and many people where there, drinking and having fun.

"I love this place!" Naruto smiled springing his fist into the air. Sakura took a sip of water, when she turned to naruto, he had a wide grin on his face.

"So sakura-chan…"

"Hm?"

"Do you think this would be some sort of date?"

"No Naruto…" He did a sad sigh. "Why not?"

" Because we're not dating,"

"…"

After dinner, the two walked outside. Naruto looked around. The day had already come to a full black, and only a small amount of lights were still on.

"It's already late… The day goes by too fast…" Sakura agreed, "We should go stay somewhere." Naruto shrugged, "sure,"

(A/N: I'm not sure whether in naruto's time there were hotels or not, wait yes there were! In that one episode with jiraiya and naruto, where itachi comes into the picture,….Ok, ill shut up now… 0.o)

The two walked a fairly short distance to a small inn. It looked fairly nice, but Naruto and Sakura weren't all that picky so they would settle on any hotel anyway. As they walked into the building, Sakura stopped him from going any further.

"Naruto, how much money do you have?" He dug into his pocket to reveal his small frog wallet. It was about halfway full.

"Your lucky I brought enough money." Sakura said. "That, would probably only last another day or two," she said pointing to the frog.

" Does that mean your paying?"

"You'll pay me back."

When they unlocked the door to their new room of the hotel Sakura screamed.

"Sakura-chan, what's wrong!" Naruto worried.

Sakura turned to him with an angry look in her eye.

"That" She pointed to the bed.

"What's wrong with it?"

"There's only one. One big one."

"Is that a problem?"

" YES naruto! I ask you to get a room with my money, and THIS is what you get!"

"Well, it was cheaper than the other one so…" Sakura did an angry sigh and threw herself onto the bed.

"I'm going to sleep."

"Me too." Naruto went under the covers with her, Naruto had a very happy look on his face.

"What are you smiling about?"

"nothing,"

Sakura turned to her side and closed her eyes.

" Goodnight sakura-chan."

There were now no longer any light out side, everyone seemed to go to sleep with them. Even the owls quieted down.

"Good night Naruto."
