Ch.3
Pup stood there, waiting patiently for an answer.
"Well? You are going to choose or am I going to have to choose for you?" Pup asked, uncrossing his arms and sticking his hands into his pockets. He took a few steps forward, eyes locked on Ferrets. Ferret stood his ground, glaring at Pup. Dragon sighed.
"Hurry up, Ferret! We need to train, and we have a mission in a few days to get ready for!" he yelled. The others yelled their agreements.
"Come on, Ferret! If you continue to fight him, we might not have a trainging field anymore!" Boar yelled.
"Yeah, if he uses his Sealing Jutsu or Pressure Point Jutsu on you, you're finished anyway!" Fish said, sitting down on the grass. Snake, Tiger, Hawk, and Bear followed suit.
"You guys might as well sit down, too. Knowing Ferret, he'll say he wants to continue the fight." Snake said.
"Yeah, you're right." Dragon said, leaning up against a tree.
"Okay, Pup! I've made up my mind!" Ferret yelled. Pup stopped in his tracks and looked at him.
"Well?"
"I want to continue."
Pup smirked.
"Fine by me." he said, dissapearing in the blink of an eye. Ferret staggered slightly, and quickly looked around. He cauht a glint of metal and jumped to the right, avoiding the kunai and shuriken that now stuck ino the ground. He landed in the safety of a tree and carefully watched the surrounding area.
"How long do you think he'll last?" Tiger asked. Hawk shrugged.
"Pup's just playing with him. If he was serious, Ferret would be on the gorund right now uncpnscious. But since Pup isn't serious, I'll say Ferret will last about three...five minutes tops." he said.
"Didn't think about that." Tiger said, leaning back.
"And that's why I'm always the brains for our missions." Hawk said. Tiger glared.
"Shut up."
"Ladies first."
Ferret flinched as a kunai lodged itself into his shoulder. He jumped away and pulled it out roughly.
"If you pull it out like that, you'll most likely lose an arm."
He gasped softly and the feeling of metal on his neck made him freeze.
Pup smirked, and gathered chakra in his fingertips, and pressed them against Ferrets neck, who slimped fowards immediately. Pup smiled and slung him over his shoulder, jumping down and heading towards his teammates. THey got up adn walked towards him, as well.
"Damn, Pup! Which one did you use?" Bear asked. Pup looked over at him.
"Pressure Point jutsu(1)" he said. Dragon looked Ferret over.
"Let's get him to the hospital." he said, sighing ans standing straight.
"Yeah. Let's go." Hawk said, walking in the direction of the hospital.
"I thought I said take me home." Sakura said, sitting on a bed in the hosiptal.
"I know. But I remember you saying you can't heal yourself yet because you're not that far. Shizune said she'd heal you for free anytime you needed it." Sasuke said, sitting in the chair by the bed.
"I don't care. All I wuold'v ehad to do was soak in cold water and put bandages on the burns." she aruged.
"Those burns are at least a third degree. Soaking and wrapping them up wouldn't do much but make them blister."
"No they.."
"He's right, Sakura." a voice from the doorway said. They both turned around to face the door.
"But.."
"Not buts, Sakura. Now sit still so I can heal you." Shizune said, placing her hands above the burns. They glowed a bright green, and within a few seconds, the burns were gone and not even a scar remained.
"There. That wasn't so bad, not was it?'
"I'm not a little kid." she grumbled. Sasuke stood up and grabbed her arm.
"Maybe not, but your acting like one." he sighed, dragging her out. He stopped when he bumbed into a group of people. He looked up at them, and Sakura looked over his shoulder.
ANBU.
Pup led the way to the hospital.
"Do you think Shizune will be mad?" Fish asked. Bear shrugged.
"Don't know. Everytime we get a new member to our team, we end up taking them to her because their dumb enough to pick a fight wuth Pup." he said.
"Yeah. We should talk. We all did the same thing." Boar said, laughing.
"True. But we learned our leason. Ferret is younger thatn we were when he entered. He's more brash, and the younger people tend not to learn from leason one. " Bear explained. Fish and Boar sighed. Him and Hawk just had to be right everytime. Jeez, even Dragon, their leader, wasn't this analytical about everything.
The rest of the trip was quiet and boring, except the few times girls tried to flirt with Pup, who didn't have any idea of how to handle girls. It always ended with Dragon scaring them away, with the others laughing at Pup's misfortune. Pup, in turn, would hit them across the head. So on they walked, pup in the lead, Dragon beside with Ferret over his shoulder, the others behind them nursing the bumbs on their heads. Once inside the hospital, they headed to the room where one of the nurses had them Shizune was.
The door opened and a young boy walked out, dragging a young girl. Before anyone could react, the boy had bumped into Dragon, causing him to drop Ferret on the ground.
Sasuke and Sakura stared at the group, adn the group stared at them.
"Um...is he going to be alright?" Sakura asked. Dragon blinked, and looked down at Ferret. He shrugged.(A/N: they are not wearing thier masks. Their masks are on top of their heads) Pup leaned down to pick him up.
"No. Leave him. You can tell him about it when he wakes up." Dragon said. Pup looked at him for a minute, before straighting and putting his hands back in his pockets.
The awkward silence that surrounded them was ended when Shizune walked out. They looked at her, and she blinked in confusion. She crossed her arms and glared.
"Who is it this time?" she asked. They pointed at Ferret. She sighed.
"Well, don't just leave him there, pick him up." she ordered. They complied, and Dragon picked him up.
"Hey, are you guys ANBU?" Sasuke asked. They looked at him.
"Yeah, we are. Why?" Tiger asked. Sasuke shrugged.
"Just curious." he said, walking off.
"Come one, Sakura! We have to go find Naruto and beat him up!" he yelled. Sakura blinked when all the ANBU started to stare at her. Sasuke stopped and looked over his shoulder to see what was holding her up. He growled when he saw the ANBU staring at her. He walked back over, grabbed her hand, glared darkly at them and stalked off.
"That guy's glare is almost as scary at Pup's." Boar said. They all nodded except Pup. Dragon looked over at him.
"Was that your sister?" he asked. Pup looked at him.
"Yeah, it was."
"Man, she's hot!" Fish said, getting a dreamy look on his face. Pup glared at him, but he remained oblivious even as the others started to walk away with Shizune quickly. He blinked when he felt a killing aura and looked at the person in front of him. He started to sweat, badly.
"Wait..Pup...I was giving her compliment!" he said, waving his hands in front of him as if it would protect him from the over-protective brother. It didn't, because a second later, Pup's fist met his face, and he was sent to the ground. Pup then proceded to kick his unconscious body to Shizune's room. They all sweatdropped when he entered, giving Fish one last kick that sent his body flying into the bed that held Feret's unconscious body.
"Was that really nessecary, Pup?" Hawk asked. Pup looked at him, glare still in place. They took a step back, and Shizune sighed before picking Fish up and placing him on another bed.
"Why did you do that?" she asked. Pup turned his glare on her. She remained unfazed.
"He's talking about my sister." he said, his voice dangerously low. Fish, Tiger, Boar, Bear, and Snake all cowered in a corner behind Hawk and Dragon.
"How do yu remain unfazed?" Snake asked.
"When you work under Tsuande, you get used to all kinds of glares." she said, placing her hands over Ferret's body.
"True. Tsunade-sama is pretty scary." Boar said. They all nodded in agreement.
Sasuke dragged Sakura all the way to Naruto's appartment. Sakura noticed he was still holding her hands, rather tightly.
"Um...Sasuke...why are holding my hand?" she asked nervsouly. He stopped for a minute before continuing.
"Because I can. Got a problem with that?" he asked.
"No..." she said, jogging slightly to keep up with his long strides.
"Is something wrong? You've been sour ever since we left the hospital."
Sasuke stopped and turned around, staring at her. She stopped as well, and tried to tug her hand away, but he only held onto it tighter.
"I didn't like the way they were staring at you. As if they couldn't believer you were even alive. And one of them was staring at you as if you were goddess." he said, voice low, "I didn't like it."
She stood silent, staring at as if trying to decifer whether or not he was lying. He glared slightly.
"I'm not lying."
"I know. It's just hard to believe to that your actually jealous." she said, starting to giggle. He flinched.
"I'm not jealous!" he argued. She only giggled harder.
"Yes, you are! saying that you don't like the way a group of guys stare at me and then drag me away while glaring at them. That's jealousy!" she said, smiling brightly. He blushed in both embarassment and anger. He turned back around and dragged her up Naruto's stairs. He knocked on the door rather roughly, and in a few seconds, it was swung open by a Naruto covered in badages. He looked angry.
"I'm not very happy with you two right now! This is all your fault!" he yelled, pointing at himself. They stared at him in shock.
"How is this our fault?" Sasuke demanded. Naruto glared darkly at him.
"You said that rude comment and that caused my throw the bowl of ramen, which instead hit Sakura, who hit me into the ladies chasing room, who hit me outside into the womens bath, who beat me up screaming that I was Jiraiya, then when I go back to Ichiraku, I get a huge lecture about how throwing fresh ramen is bad for business and myself! I just got back and just finished wrapping up my wounds, and then you two show up! Are you here to cause me even more grief?!" he screamed in rage. Sasuke and Sakura stood there, not knowing what to say.
"Well?! Answer me! If you've got nothing to say, then goodbye!" he slammed the door in their face. They flinched. Sakura looked up at Sasuke sadly.
"Maybe we did go a little overboard. I mean...Naruto's never been this mad before." she said.
"You're right." he knocked on the door, "Hey, Naruto! We didn't mean for it go that far!"
The door swung open.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Naruto asked.
"I'm so sorry! I wasn't thinking when I hit you! I was in pain and those burns were really hurting. I didn't mean for all that other stuff to happen." Sakura said, hugging Naruto tightly. Naruto stood there, and that's when they knew he really was mad. If Sakura hugging him didn't make him blush and apologize, then there was something he wasn't telling them.
"That's not all that happened, was it, Naruto?' Sasuke asked, crossing his arms and going into the I-know-something-is-up-and-you're-not-telling-us-everything mode. Naruto lowered his head.
"I can't tell you. Not even you guys would understand. I'm not even permitted to mention it because I would be breaking a law. If you want to know, then ask the Hokage." he said, turning his head away from them.
"A law? What law?" Sakura asked.
"A law about me and something else. Anyone who mentions is immediately punished and their ninja lisence stripped away."
"That's dumb! We're going to.."
"We have to anyway."
"Huh?"
"Look up there." Naruto pointed at a hawk that was screeching above their heads.
"Let's go. After she yells us what she wants, I'm asking her about this law." Sasuke said, dragging the both of them towards the Hokage Tower.
