Naruto and Sakura dived to the right, while Kakashi took the left.

Kelli hissed angrily. "Die!!" And she lunged for the two teens. Both of them knew what to do. They made the sign of the tiger, and when Kelli's fangs made contact, they poofed into logs. The next thing she knew, Naruto was behind her, fist held high.

"Eat this!" The punch hit his mark, but he was thrown back. "What in the….?"

Kelli let out shrill laughter, "It will not work mere mortal. Only Celestial Bronze can destroy me!"

"Oh yeah?!" Came Sakura's voice. BAAAAMM! The ground shook and broke with the force of Sakura's strong fist.

Kelli stumbled, and Sakura took this to her advantage. She clenched her hand and focused so much energy into it that it glowed green. Sakura ran to Kelli and instead of punching her, she just placed her hand gently on her arm and leg.

"And how do you think that will help you?" Kelli asked. But soon she got her answer. When she tried to move her arms, her knee twitched, when she tried to move her legs, her head turned. Sakura had disrupted her nervous system!

"It's all yours!" The kunoichi announced happily.

Naruto, who had recovered his wits, stood next to his sensei. "You thinking what I'm thinking?" He asked.

Kakashi closed his eye. "It's been so long." But he reached up to his forehead protector… and pulled it up. His left eye was bloody red. It had weird, black markings around it. "Sharingan," He said.

Naruto grinned and placed two of his fingers horizontally behind two other fingers that were vertical. "Shadow Clone Jutsu!" In about a second another blonde appeared. Naruto had made an exact copy of himself. The real Naruto put out his right palm, and the clone moved his hands frantically over it. Slowly, energy swirled and swirled in Naruto's hand, making a blue sphere. The sphere enlarged until it took both Naruto and his clone to hold it.

Meanwhile Kakashi moved his hands, making various hand signs. The air around him began to crackle, and his right hand started to form lightning. Soon he had an uncontrollable blade of energy and lightning. He nodded to Naruto. "You first."

Naruto dashed toward the monster, clone at his side. He held up the swirling ball of energy, cried "ODAMA RASENGAN!!" And impaled Kelli. When the blonde looked back, there was a hole in her. But to his surprise, it began to close. "What?!"

Before Kelli could explain, It was Kakashi's turn. He madly dashed to Kelli and slammed his 'Lightning Blade' into her face…. Nothing.



"How the heck are we gonna beat this thing?" Naruto asked, dumbfounded. "I used up all my energy on my 'Odama Rasengan.'"

"And my jutsu is wearing off too," Sakura said. "Look!" It was true, Kelli nervous system was getting back in tact. She stood and extended her claws.

"I think you've had enough fun," She said, advancing toward them. "But now it's the end of the LINE!"

"I don't think so!" Came a new voice.

The three ninja looked up and saw three people who were about Naruto and Sakura's age running down the hill… Percy, Annabeth and Grover.

"Yesss…" Kelli hissed happily. "I will have a meal of Mortals and Demigods." The three ninja took this chance and jumped back.

Sakura drew a kunai. "Let's get her!" She said. Naruto and Kakashi nodded, drew kunai and charged along with the other three.

Percy swung Riptide at the monster, but Kelli ducked, and Percy's sword came in contact with Naruto's Kunai. "Get back!" The Demigod yelled.

"No way!" Naruto replied smiling, "I have some unfinished business with this… this…"

"Empousa!" Annabeth yelled from a distance. She took her knife and brought it down on Kelli's back. She disintegrated into yellow dust.

After the whole mayhem was over, The three campers came up to the ninja and asked, "How'd you get in contact with Kelli?"

"Well…" Naruto said, tapping his chin, "We needed a ride… we had to find this…" Sakura clamped her hand over his mouth.

"You idiot!!" She yelled. "You almost gave us away!!"

"But they did save our lives." Kakashi said. He pulled the forehead protector back over his eye before he turned to the three, "We are here on some serious business, and we're looking for Camp Half-Blood."

Annabeth took in a sharp breath, "You're the ninja Chiron sent for!"

Naruto wrenched himself away from Sakura's death grip. "How'd you know?"

"We're ummm… some of the campers!" Grover said. He pointed to each of them as he introduced, "That's Annabeth, Percy, and I'm Grover!"

Kakashi gave a small nod. "I'm Kakashi Hatake."

Sakura smiled and waved, "Sakura Haruno."



And Naruto pointed to himself and gave a broad smile, "And I'm Naruto Uzumaki! The number one…"

"Knuckle-head ninja." Sakura finished.

"AM NOT!!" Naruto yelled.

"ARE TO!" She yelled back.

While they exchanged 'AM NOTs and ARE TOs' Kakashi asked, "So where is this Chiron that assigned us this mission?"

Grover and Percy were too busy watching the other two ninja bicker, but Annabeth said, "He's up at Half-Blood Hill… But he said that you guys weren't coming until later."

The old man shrugged, "Well change of plans… We need to get to this 'Chiron' and fast." He looked over at his two students and sighed, "Naruto, Sakura…" The two abruptly stopped. "It's time to go."

The two backed away from each other and followed Kakashi and the three Demigods as they trudged up Half-Blood Hill, waiting to see what would happen next.
