---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
With the sound of clashing metal, a smile danced on their face when they opened their eyes. In front of them was Neji, a kunai in his hand. He turned around; "Are you two alright?" the two gave him a short nod. Neji turned back to the enemy to see all of them ready to fight. A cry of pain made Sasuke and Naruto snap their heads around to see the first ninja holding the wire had thrown a kunai right at Sakura's shoulder making it bleed.
Sasuke gave him a hateful glare, his teeth ground and his eyes flashed red. Naruto's eyes turned an unholy crimson as he watched the blood run down his little imouto's arm. Sasuke started towards the man Naruto hot on his heels. They both dodged the shuriken flying towards them and let the others handle protecting the students.
Sasuke jumped in the air as Naruto made 10 shadow clones, all of them charging to the man holding Sakura. The only women in the group stepped forward, taking out three shadow clones. She got lost in the clouds of smoke as the clones disappeared leaving an opening. Naruto summoned his zanbatou, raising it over his head ready to deliver a deadly attack to the women. Inches from his target, another man had pushed her away and blocked Naruto's zanbatou with a kunai. Naruto growled as he added more force into his blade, he pulled back and took another swing. Metal met metal as they continued to exchange blows, none to any avail.
Sasuke landed next to Sakura who was struggling against her restraints, biting her lip as pain shot through her body. Sasuke took out his blade and was about to cut the wires when a strong kick to the stomach set him flying back. He flipped in the air and glared at the man that attacked him who had fallen into a very advance-fighting stance. Sasuke growled before falling into his own fighting stance. They ran at each other, blade-meeting flesh, yet there was not one scratch on the other man. Sasuke growled again, he did not want to use it but if he had to he will he thought as he sidestepped, a fist grazing his cheek. He grabbed that arm and pulled the man forward his sword ready to taste the blood of its master's enemy.
Sakura tried to ignore the pain in her shoulder; she gathered her charka around her. The man at the other end of the wire noticed, he gave a quick pull to the wire making the girl lose her footing, but not her consecration. Her hair and clothing started floating as her charka flowed threw her body. As her breathing labored, her eyes flashed from emerald to ruby. The shadows around them started dancing towards her; with a single move of her head, a vein like shadow cut the wires before they started rushing towards the man. He jumped back avoiding the shadow only to be thrown forward by another large mass of shadow behind him. Sakura pulled the kunai out of her shoulder before returning her attention back to the man on the ground.
Sasuke jumped back avoiding another attack, from the corner of his eye he could see the others fight. He gave a short sharp whistle, his teammate gave him their attention for a split second before they all jumped back to join the others. He quickly, but gentle pulled Sakura next to him. He pushed off her kimono, leaving her in a red tank top, to expose the wound to him. A deep grow ripped from his throat as he saw exactly how deep it was. He sat her down taking off his sweater leaving him in a black tank top. He started ripping it into strips to dress her wounds. "Naruto you take care of the rest." Sasuke ordered net even bothering to turn. Naruto nod his head and took a step forward only to be stopped by Kiba. He gave the dog lover a questionable look.
Kiba's grin grew larger, "You think we'll let you guys have all the fun." the others around him nod in agreements. "You're not the only ones on this mission." he and his team stepped in front of the others, "You guys relax, we'll take care of the rest." they started rushing towards the only women in the group. Neji and his team also jumped in, they would not let a whole bunch of rookies take the spot light. They all fell into a fighting stance in front of the man that fought Sasuke.
The last two men ran around the others and right towards the students and the genin. The first man suddenly came to a stop; he turned his head to see the lazy genius finishing the last sign in his family's jutsu. The man tried to gain control of his body as Shikamaru scratched his head with an annoyed look on his face. "Man, this was supposed to be a D-rank not a B-rank. Troublesome." Ino and Choji joined Shikamaru's side, leaving team 7 to deal with the leader of the group.
Sasuke tied the cloth one last time, making sure it would last until the end of the battle. He and Naruto helped Sakura stand up. Right when the enemy was a foot from them, they all disappeared. The man looked around him, he knew that these where not ordinary genin. They were hiding something big. His train of thought was cut off when he felt something wrap around him tightly. He looked down to see chains' binding his arms to his body, on the other end was none other than the last Uchiha. With a strong tug, the young boy was able to get the man air born slamming him into the ground. When the man felt the chains becoming lose he quickly slipped out of them just avoiding an attack from the female of the group, in her hand was a long sword. He flipped again avoiding the on slather from the blonde haired boy's zanbatou. All of them knew the art of the sword, different styles but deadly all the same. The genins all ran towards the man, swords ready to drink blood.
The students watched the fights with glee. The true danger of it all never crossing their minds. They were too lost in the art of the ninja. Their smiles got larger when they heard a cry of defeat as the man Team 10 was fighting fell to his knees from exhaustion. All four of them covered in cuts and bruises. Next to fall was the woman, Team 8 also covered in small injuries. With a loud boom, Neji's team was victories over their enemy who was in a middle of a creator. The three teams dragged their unconscious opponents to the middle of the field. They were quickly bound together with rope. The leader of the group saw the genins ready to pull of the masks of his teammates; he avoided another attack and ran towards his teammates. Naruto appeared in front of him only to be throw back. The man ran in front of his team pushing away the genins before disappearing in a puff of smoke.
"What the hell was that about?" Kiba asked scratching his head. The other teams just shrugged and were suddenly surrounded by the students. Questions firing out of their mouths at a hundred miles per hour. Team 8, 10 and team Gai were in the middle of it all, some enjoying it more than others were. In the commotion, team seven had slipped away to the sides. Sasuke placed Sakura on his lap further examining her shoulder, not caring if anyone saw them. Naruto leaned against the tree next to them, a lollypop in his mouth in deep thought.
"Sakura, how do you feel?" Sasuke asked softly, his eyes filled with concern, anger and worry. Sakura gave him a small smile.
"I'm fine, it's healing already." indeed the wound was already half way healed. Sakura looked down with sad eyes. "I'm sorry if I was a burden." she clenched her fist. "I'm so weak. Why didn't I just release the…" Naruto kneeled next to her he placed a hand on her shoulder, interrupting her, making her look at him. He gave her a large grin before giving her a quick hug.
"Don't say that, it was our fault we weren't able to protect your." Sasuke started stroking her silky locks.
"Naruto's right, we should be able to protect you." He meet her eye, "Sakura remember, never release the seal unless I say so or if it is absolutely necessary. Do you understand?" Sakura nod her head. "Good, goes the same for you too Naruto." Naruto stood up and threw his hands behind his head.
"Yeah Yeah. Just because he gave you that doesn't mean you're the boss of us." Sasuke help Sakura and they started heading towards the other who never noticed their absence.
"Actually dobe it does." he brought a hand to his eye, "The taste of the forbidden fruit." he smirked. "We are bound to the devil's game." he finished quietly. Soon the students surrounded them.
--
"Kakashi, did you learn what you needed?" The third Hokage asked. In front of him was the enemy Nins. They removed their wooden masks reviling the Konoha 12 sensei, their injuries disappeared.
"No." Kakashi answered blankly.
"That was a mighty big favor you ask Kakashi. I am not one to question your ideas but what is it that you are exactly trying to learn?"
"I'm not to sure Hokage-sama." Kakashi said peering into the crystal ball in front of the Hokage's desks were they saw their genin in the middle of all the students. The ball stayed a little longer on Naruto, who suddenly looked up as he was looking at them. For a split second, Kakashi swore he saw Naruto's eyes flash crimson.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Target is 12ft in front of you."
"Yeah we see it."
"Alright boys at my signal… now!" Sasuke and Naruto jumped towards the target. Naruto grabbed the cat by its tail.
"I got it!" he yelled, the cat was not happy and started scratching his face. "Ow, ow you damn cat." Naruto tried to pry the cat off his face. Sasuke just watched him as he reported in to Kakashi.
"Confirmation, red ribbon on right ear."
"Alright lost pet Tora captured, head back to point one will meet you there." Kakashi said.
"Roger." Sasuke looked at the beaten up Naruto who had a cat sitting on top of him. Sasuke picked up the calm cat and started heading to the meeting point. "Come on dobe." he called back.
Kakashi stood up, a few feet from him was Sakura, her umbrella open and her eyes clouded as she helped her team track the runaway cat. The boys would not let her go after the viscous cat in fear of her being injured. They arrived to the meeting point waiting for the other two; Kakashi took a side-glance at his female student. She stood straight and tall, her face was blank, her soft silky hair fell to her lower back with a small wave in it and she eyes shimmered but were blank of emotions. With her black and red kimono and her umbrella, she looked more like a doll in an expressive store than a ninja on the battlefield.
"Sakura-chan!" the small girl was tackled by no other than Naruto. Sasuke who was yelling at Naruto later joined them. "Alright kiddies lets get going, I'm sure the client is waiting for her cat." the genin nod her head and made their way to the Hokage's office.
--
"Oh my aren't you just the cuties little thing!" the feudal lord's wife cooed at Sakura who was just standing their with a lost, but cute, look on her face. The wife had even forgotten about her little pet, the Hokage cleared his throat gaining her attention.
"Well then, Team 7 it your mission is complete." Lady feudal left the room after paying taking her cat with her but not before giving Sakura a quick squeeze. "Alright for your next mission, baby sitting the grandson of the feudal lord, picking potatoes…" none other than Naruto interrupted him.
"No no no, we will not do another baby mission. Come on old man cant you just give us something else like a C-rank not some gay ass D-rank we're way better than that." Kakashi sighed. The third Hokage chuckled at Naruto's actions.
"Very well Naruto, I shall send you and your team on a C-ranked mission." they all looked at him. "You will be escorting an important vip back to his home. Do you except?" they all nod yes. "Very well, meet at the front gates in an hour, their will be another team joining you as well. Dismissed." the three genin left the room to pack, Naruto running out of the door excited for the mission to start. The Hokage looked at the copy-ninja, "Kakashi keep a close eye on your student I to feel as if they are hiding something. Report anything that seems odd." Kakashi nod and disappeared as well.
--
Sasuke stood in the doorway of Naruto's room with in the Uchiha Compound. The blonde haired boy was trying to stuff as many lollypops, instant ramen cups and weapons in his traveling bag. "Oi dobe what about your clothes?" Sasuke asked when Naruto had finished packing. Naruto looked on his messy bed; sitting on top of it was his clothes. He screamed in frustration as he started unpacking again to make room for his clothes. Sasuke shook his head and closed the door before making his way to Sakura's room. When he opened the room, he saw her curled up on the bed, her bag packed and ready. With a small smile Sasuke made his way to her side, he sat on her bed next to her careful not to wake her.
He gentle moved some hair out of her face. He used his other arm as a pillow as he watched her sleeping face. He was surprised when she moved closer to him, wrapping her arms around his body and burying her face in his chest. Sasuke's eyes soften as he wrapped one arm around her, using the other one the stroke her hair. "Sakura I wish you didn't have to be involved in his game." he whispered as a mark on her neck became visible to him. "You're too innocent to be involved in such a cruel world." he continued to hold her close to him, feeling her warm breath washing over his neck.
After awhile Naruto appeared at the door, he nodded his head and Sasuke understood it was time to go. Sasuke slowly got up bring Sakura up with him. With the movement, Sakura opened her eyes; she looked up to see Sasuke's face. She blushed and looked down at her lap; her blush only deepened when Sasuke let out a shot chuckle and nuzzle his face into her neck giving it a quick kiss. Sasuke got off the bed and pulled her up. Sakura looked at her feet with a blush still on her face; Sasuke smirked and cupped her chin. Sakura looked at his deep eyes, Sasuke's smirk grew into a small smile as he placed a kiss on top Sakura's head. "Let's get going." he said as he pulled away.
--
"Were are they?" Naruto shouted pacing back and forth. They had been waiting at the gate for over 20 minutes, and 20 minutes for Naruto was too long to wait.
"Hello Kiddies!" Kakashi appeared Naruto who hand jumped in the air.
"Your LATE!" Naruto screamed. He looked at the people behind Kakashi. "Err, who are they?" There were 4 people behind Kakashi. The first was a young boy with flat black hair, his face blank of emotion. Next to him was a girl with long purple hair arguing with a red haired girl. Behind them their sensei sight at his student's behavior.
"Well why don't we get ourselves introduced before our clients get here, we'll start. My name is Kakashi Hatake. This is Naruto." He pointed toward the boy, "Sakura." Sakura looked at them. "And Sasuke." the two girls had hearts in their eyes when they saw Sasuke, who groaned, more fan girls.
The other sensei nodded his head. "I am Yamato and this is my team, Sai." the boy gave them a fake smile "Karin." the red head girl blushed when she looked at Sasuke who frowned. "And this is Ami." Sakura seemed to tense a little at the sound of a familiar name. "I hope we can work well together." Yamato finished. Soon he and Kakashi started taking leaving their students alone as they waited for their clients. Both teams faced each other, each person having different thoughts.
Sai was the first to break the silence. "Never thought I'd get the change to work with the great Uchiha." he said with a face smile earning him a glare. Out of no were his teammate, Karin, had smacked him over them head. He glared at her. "What the hell was that for bitch?"
"Show some respect!" She screech Ami nodding her head in agreement behind her. Karin turned to face Sasuke and blushed under his intense gaze. Ami was also starting at her Sasuke-kun, she then noticed a pink haired girl next to Sasuke. Sakura took a small step back when she felt Ami's gaze land on her. A cruel smirk grew on Ami's face.
"Well well if it isn't little forehead girl." Sakura stood behind her teammates. Sasuke looked down at her, asking her something under his breath. "What's wrong forehead, are you scared?" Ami asked mockingly. Sasuke and Naruto gave her a hard glare.
"We would appreciate it if you didn't harass our teammate like that." Sasuke said blankly trying to hold back from killing the girl in front of him for all the thing she had done to Sakura.
