Naruto Legends
-AN-
Well, I'm back and finally got a new chapter done, while I usually get these out once a week I finally burnt out last week even though I tried to write it was a slow process so I couldn't do it. This passing week however, I would have finally got it out but apparently getting it out Friday was not to be. Due to connections issues with my phone line. Well I managed to gain access (yes I got dial up and it's terrible) so thankfully I can get this uploaded and hopefully get my problem fixed soon. Well anyway I'm standing by my previous promise and I think it turned out well, heck this is been my favorite chapter to write so far. Well anyway on with the story!
DISCLAMER: I do not own Naruto or the Mega Man series.
Chapter 4: Crash
-NL-
Darkness… that's all he could register at the moment, that was until he felt his wet back. Causing him to stir and jump start his brain.
Naruto opened his eyes to see where he was, standing up in the ankle deep water inside a dark chamber. It took him just a few seconds to recognizing where he was, how could ever forget get this?
"Bout time you woke up."
Naruto spun around facing the giant sealed cage where the voice's owner was held prisoner, he was greeted by two large red silted eyes and the face of the gigantic demon fox.
"Had a nice nap? Can't blame you, considering how far you fell through that hole you and that ignorant human made.
"Hole?" Naruto said out loud, trying to figure out what his tenant was talking about.
"Your clash with the shinobi, remember?"
Naruto took a moment to look back over the recent events that took place, then it hit like brick falling on his head, "Oh yeah…"
Shouting voices called out to him from both sides, Naruto thrusts the Rasengan forward to do battle with the nuke-nin's weapon. A brilliant blinding light exploded out from between the two colliding forces fallowed by a loud bang, their struggle began.
Naruto's body begins to tremble due as he struggled pushing the weapon back, but Naruto's short teenage body fails to match the larger and older nuke-nin in a contest of strength.
The enemy ninja himself was gloating madly at this fact, since he could see the blond's expression showing signs of desperation and struggle.
"THIS IS THE END FOR YOU! YOU PUT UP A VALINT EFFORT, BUT YOUR FOOLISH INTERFERENCE ENDS NOW!!" He cried in a tone of triumph, like he already achieved victory.
Naruto watched as his right arm started to give way to the older ninja's strength and the power and weapon. He started shouting in his head he can't let them down! That he won't lose here! As he makes a strained attempted to push back with all his might, but it fails.
"What should I do…? He's too strong…"
"Weak…" Whispered a deep voice in his head.
Naruto's eyes widen "What?" He whispered in surprise.
"I said you're weak." The voice spoke the painful truth once more.
"Kyubi?" The blond thought, then it occurred to him what the demon fox just told him.
"I'm not weak!" He shouted in his mind, stilling struggling with the battle and slowly losing.
"Yes you are…you make such foolish boasts yet can't back them up on your own, you may have confidence and courage but when it really comes down to it you're weak. Such as that display from earlier your…self sacrifice…more like a way of just giving up and die, your lack strength could kill us both which is why you struggle now. A valiant effort yes, but due to your foolish bravado fate death has us within arm's reach.
Naruto had no time to really contemplate the demon's words, his strength in this struggle was wavering.
"However, you should be thankful." The demon spoke once more, Naruto felt his himself begin to re-energize. "Since I wish to live and eventually break free from my prison, I will give you the power you need but remember this, I am not helping you because I feel pity for you, this merely self preservation. Also remember, you are nothing without me." Naruto listened as the Kyubi's laugh echoed in his mind.
Naruto snapped his mind back to the present situation, not wasting any more time to contemplate on the previous conversation Naruto's chakra flared as a red flaming aura engulfed his body. He proceeded to push with all of his renewed strength, he saw that victory was in his favor seeing his opponent's eyes widen in surprise. However the victory Naruto though he would cliame was not to be his, when suddenly Rasengan started acting strange.
Naruto took notice of the strange reaction the Rasengan was showing as it started to absorb the energy of the nuke-nin's weapon.
"Wha…what's going on?"
The Rasengan started to crackle with electricity and glow brighter then it began to grow.
Naruto's memory ended with the strange event involving his strongest technique. He looked back up at the red eyed fox demon who only stared back at him.
"What was that about?" He asked, hoping the fox would give an answer.
But he was denied, "You will find out." The fox replied, then began to chuckle, "Ah…yes, enjoy digging your way out, you're lucky you only been out for a minute, any longer then I might have been forced to take command."
"What?" Kyubi's last words left him confused; Naruto however would get his answer as the demon's chuckle faded along with sight.

Naruto was once more in the dark, this time he was fully conscious but his eyes were still closed. Naruto opened his eyes only to be greeted with more darkness.
"What the…? Where am I?" Naruto tried to turn his head but only could move so much, he felt it rub against a rough surface as did rest of his body not mention the lack of room. Not having much luck he stopped to think of where he was, feeling around he took notice that everything around him was dirt and rock.
"So…I'm…buried alive?!" Naruto realized what the fox demon's last words meant. "So how am I getting out?"
Naruto started to ponder on his predicament not realizing he would be in need of air, however his though process was interrupted by what felt like dirt fall on his nose. Naruto however decided to ignore it, but was interrupted by a different situation. Something wet and slimy suddenly touched his nose, Naruto stiffened and could only standby as the slimy thing moving about his nose. His mind started trying to comprehend what the odd thing was, he was able to figure out that it was small but long, even damp, and it seemed to stretch to move about. Naruto's mind slowly put it together with he remembered he was also underground.
"So that means this thing is…" Naruto's eyes widen with he came to his conclusion but it wasn't just that, he suddenly felt the thing start to make it's way to opening of his nostril.

Sakura opened her eyes when her consciousness returned, she looked up realizing she was sitting up against something, turning up she saw she was being shaded by a fairly good size tree.
Looking around she found herself in the rather large area with small rolling hills surrounded by a sea of trees. Noticing the sun was up, it didn't hit her immediately but after racking her brain for a moment realizing something was naling in the back of her mind she remembered what happened.
"Last night's conversation…the pursuit of the nuke-nin…Naruto fighting….Sasuke leaving…"
Her eyes widen with her returning memories, she then started to get up but then she felt a strong hand on her shoulder keeping her from standing. Looking up she saw none other than her sensei.
"Kakashi-sensei?" She spoke in surprise.
Kakashi of course did his happy expression with what of his face was visible, and then replies "Yo, good to see you are finally with us Sakura."
Sakura's expression turns from one of worry to one of relief. "Is Sasuke still here with us?" She asked, with a hint pleading.
Kakashi took a moment to answer which really racked Sakura's nerves, but he finally answered "I wouldn't exactly say we're here…but he is with us." The jonin points his thumb behind him over his should.
Sakura leans over to her right to see past him, low and behold was the raven haired Uchiha tied to a tree on a small hill while sitting on the ground with a small scowl on his face.
Sakura was happy at first that he was still with them at first, then she remembered and realized why he was tied up, it was due to his attempt to defect from the team and village, which of course is treason.
Then something hit her, something about what Kakashi said, "I wouldn't exactly say we're here…" Pondering on it she decided to ask why he said it that why. However it would have to wait, her attempt was interrupted by a femme moan reaching her ear coming from her right. Sakura looking over saw her best female friend, the pale blond girl just waking up sitting against another tree.
Opening her eyes Ino looks up and takes a moment to look around as she waited for her vision to adjust, a moment later she hears approaching foot step against the grass. Looking up she is greeted by the faces of her short bubblegum pink haired rival and her masked sensei.
"Ino? Are you alright" Sakura asked.
"Sakura…? Yeah I'm alright, I think." The pale blonde kunoichi replied as her friend pulled her up.
Ino took notice of the surroundings realizing that the area was different; she saw a long stretch of red stone wall surround the area with a sea of trees behind them.
"Great…and it was so nice and quiet too," came a lazy voice from behind Sakura and Kakashi.
"Shikamaru?" Ino responded as they turned to the pine apple headed brown haired boy.
There he was lying on his back staring up at the sunny blue sky, on a small high just a little higher than the one beside where Sasuke was tied up.
Ino took off towards the boy remembering what happened earlier, Shikamaru heard the fast approaching steps and turn his head to look when he saw who it was. His eyes widen then he quickly sat up and held out his hands trying to tell her to stop. It did no good though, within seconds she was upon him getting into his face, and then started shouting.
"You idiot! You could have been killed, why did you just stand there! If it weren't for Naruto you would be dead right now!"
Shikamaru sighed which showed an obvious sign that troublesome popped up in his mind, and then a sudden look of confusion crossed his face.
"I underestimated him and lost my concentration, if you really wanted to know," however he would have asked a certain question however, keeping his mouth shut would save his ears from more damage
Sakura, who was watching the scene with a small look of amusement, then realized something.
"Naruto?" Ino mentioning the blond boy's name reminded her that he'd been present at the fight too.
Sakura looked around to see if he'd been unconscious like her and Ino were, there was no way he'd kept quiet this whole time, even with Ino yelling at Shikamaru. However all she saw was Sasuke and a huge mound of dirt sitting in the middle of the clearing, which she found odd.
She turned to Kakashi, who was watching the anger pale blond continue to yell at the lazy boy.
"Kakashi-sensei…shouldn't Naruto be here as well?" As a small hint of worry had crept into Sakura's voice, when she remembered what happened.
Ino quickly stopped her shouting when she heard her friend's question, and then looked back at her and her sensei. Shikamaru took this opportunity to back up a little and stand up, so he wouldn't be prone as easily to her verbal assaults
The jonin's eye look toward his pink haired kunoichi student and sighed while rubbing the back of his head.
"No sign of him I'm afraid, I would've gone looking for him but that would be irresponsible of me to abandon all of you."
Sakura felt worried, sure he was a loud mouth and annoying but he was still a comrade. Surly his stupid last minute stunt didn't get him incinerated did it? And what about that sudden freeze up? Why did he just stand there and nearly let himself get killed?
"That fool probably died," came the voice of a certain Uchiha, it was filled with the arrogance he commonly shown yet with a hint of coldness.
Everyone rounded toward the teenage tied to the tree nearby.
"Sasuke-kun?" Sakura asked not believing what she just heard, that Sasuke would say something so cold about their teammate.
Shikamaru just stared at the boy with indifference on his face, while most likely not happy with what he just said.
Ino was in the same state of mind as Sakura, she refused to believe the same thing, why would he be so cold toward the boy? Sure the Uchiha saw that the goof ball they all knew was beneath him and acted arrogant to a fault but she as like a lot of the other fan club members thought it might be just been a character flaw he had. Heck, they didn't know that much about him, which was the attractive quality of the handsome boy. But this action was almost crossing the line...did he really hate Uzumaki if so…why?
Kakashi even though he didn't show was really worried now; the incident from yesterday didn't help either. When Naruto and Sasuke attacked each other on the hospital roof, if he hadn't arrived when he did they might have killed each other, or even worse…Sakura's attempt to stop them might have been costly.
Sakura started to approach the boy "Sasuke-kun why are you-?"
However, her question was going to have to wait, the large mound of dirt and rock nearby started to show signs of a disturbance. Rock and dirt started to move and roll off the pile, meaning whatever it was that cause these occurrences was coming from the inside.
Then all at once the source of the disturbance surfaced, like a shark leaping out of the ocean water it exploded to the surface. However this creature wasn't going to be making any loud splashing noise, nope just the loud glass shattering sounds of panic.
"WOOORRRRRRRM!!" Then came a scream from the leaping creature.
Everyone at once jumped at the sudden yelling of a blond creature wearing orange exploding out of the mound not far from their position.
Looking up from staring at the Uchiha after nearly having a heart attack, Shikamaru asks the one question everyone else mostly likely would be asking, "Is that…Naruto?" Sure enough when his eyes landed on the thing running around the mound, he got his answer, "Troublesome blond idiot."
Kakashi was in the same state of mind as the Nara boy, his only visible eye was quirked wondering what the boy was screaming about, "At least he's ok I guess," was the only real though that travel through his mind. But when his gaze fell on the two young kunoichi whose expression didn't look so pleased, "For the moment," came the afterthought.
Sakura and Ino were not taking the scare so well, usually the blond boy messed up everything revolving around their love life, but does he have to nearly give them a heart attack?
"What the hell is he screaming about?" Sakura asked no one in particular, while her face turned red with anger.
"Better not be his idea of a quick prank." Ino responded to said question.
Sasuke was not pleased like everyone else (well Kakashi wasn't angry but was startled) with the sudden scare. Naruto's survival convinced him that the fool was out running him in growth of strength. The Uchiha was now seething with anger once more, like when he was in the hospital.
Naruto after running around like a chicken with his chopped off shouting about a worm trying to crawl up his nose he calmed a little. Logic started to kick in that maybe it didn't get inside but the idea still sent chills down his spin. But he finally let it go once he noticed he didn't feel anything wiggle in his nose, as stupid even for him as the idea was.
Naruto took opportunity to see his surroundings realizing right off that where he currently stood was an unfamiliar land; he definitely didn't recognize the long red wall of rock nearby either.
"Where am I?" He asked himself.
"NA-RU-TO!" Shouted an angry female voice from a distance.
Naruto's brows rose up at the sudden human voice from the side; the angry voice was familiar and sent a chill down his spin once more. He knew that if he was right about the owner, the next thing he would feel was going to be unpleasant.
Sure enough just as he turn toward the source, he saw the angry green eyes of his crush as she approached and as always he futilely stood his ground. He was immediately grabbed up by his orange jumpsuits collar and his head started rattling as she shook him.
"What the hell were you doing!? You nearly gave us heart failure scaring us like that!" The angry girl demanded.
"I'm-I'm sor-ry Sa-ku-ra-ch-an!" He barely managed to apologize.
"Give me one good reason why I shouldn't drive your head into the ground?!" She asked as she stopped trying to rattle his brain loose, during this time the other three victims of Naruto's unintended scare approached looking for an answer themselves.
Ino decided to supply her own threat, "Tell why or else," She stated.
Naruto from his experience knew that usually whatever he said was usually no good, but he had to try.
"A-a worm! A worm tried to crawl up my nose!" He pleaded.
Sakura just stared at him like he developed a third eye, she wasn't sure if she heard right, "Could you repeat?" She asked irritably.
Naruto explained himself more clearly, "A worm tried to crawl up my nose, when I woke up buried under their!" He pleaded pointing to the mound.
This time she paid more attention to his answer but with the scare fresh in her mind she wasn't going to let him off due to past incidents. "You mean…you scared us half to death over a worm!" She shouted, "What kind of excuse is-" Then something clicked.
Kakashi understood the disturbing idea but was could only chuckle.
Shikamaru just shrugged and muttered quietly "Troublesome women."
Ino and Sakura however couldn't hear the Nara; they were too busy having disturbing images turn up in their mind's eye. After a moment they turned pale, and then a huge chill ran down their spines and started shuddering. Sakura let Naruto go who was surprised she didn't pound him like usual as his butt hit the ground.
"All is forgiven it seems," the masked jonin spoke up, still chuckling at Naruto's explanation drawing everyone's attention. "Since we got any stressful issues we had from before out of our systems…at least most of anyway, it's time to talk about our current situation and what happened."
Naruto crossed his arms and squinted like usual when he started thinking, pull his thoughts together after being nearly pummeled by Sakura and Ino's womanly fury, he remembered his previous observation.
"Like…how we're most likely, nowhere near the village Kakashi-sensei?" The blond male asked.
Kakashi nodded thankful that the intelligence Naruto displayed earlier hadn't faded away yet, "Exactly Naruto."
"So if we're not near the village then like…where are we? And most of all, how did we end up here?" The female blond asked, getting her disturbing visions.
Then the lazy voice of the only present Nara jumped in, "We don't know yet. After Naruto's suicidal attack against the nuke-nin, something happened that got us here, we all past out when it happened."
"It's as Nara says," Kakashi said confirming Shikamaru's info, "We somehow ended up in a most unfamiliar place, we're most likely no longer on the continent of the elemental countries."
"What?!" The two blonds and a recovered pink haired kunoichi yelled their eyes bugging out.
Kakashi's serious eye drooped at their reaction, "Was yelling like that necessary?"
Sakura pulling herself back together from the seemly ridiculous conclusion her sensei made, now she had one question she needed to ask, "Then where are we? And how are you so sure?"
"Don't know this place's name, but I like I have one way to-"
Kakashi's answer was suddenly interrupted by a loud noise that originated from a far off distance in the woods to the side. It sounded like a large crashing metal object dragging across the ground.
The Konoha ninja watched and listened with their senses on high alert, trying to anticipate where the object was exactly coming from and where it would go. Their answer came in the form of this mystery object's progressing trail of destruction coming into view not too far away, a large group of leafs could be seen flying up into the air as something that appeared to be red and yellow plowed on through the sea of trees toppling them over. Not long after it passed the sound of the object's crash slowly came to a halt.
Everyone eased up and slowly relaxed just in case another loud noise was to start up.
Shikamaru decided to be the one to break the silence, "So…anyone wish to guess what that was?"
"Sounded like a large airborne machine…" Sakura answered remembering team 7's mission in the land of snow.
Naruto took a few seconds to think, then a light bulb with off in his head then an alarm went off.
"That-that means…people could be hurt! We should go help!" Naruto started acting antsy due to his consciences telling him it would be the right thing to do.
Kakashi held up a hand telling Naruto to calm down, "Ok, ok we will; besides…this could give us an opportunity to find out where we are."
Shikamaru nodded, "Indeed…does sound like a good idea…however, we should be careful but…"
Ino who just mostly listened found the sudden cut off a little annoying, "But…what?
"It would be best to keep a good eye on him," Shikamaru finished while jerking his head toward where their prisoner is.
"But…" Sakura started to protest but trailed off realizing that it was futile.
Kakashi sighed, "I know how you feel Sakura, but you should remember at times like these personal feelings have no place here, Sasuke tried to abandon us earlier there for trusting him…is a risk."
"I know…" She sadly replied in a sadden tone, looking down at the ground.
Naruto was also saddened by the way things looked, his expression change to a down cast.
Ino wasn't doing much better, still in disbelief that the boy she and Sakura fought for all these years tried to defect.
"Anyway…" Kakashi spoke regaining the three sadden genin's attention, "We should check out what happened with the crash, lives could be on the line as we speak. Shikamaru you use your 'Shadow Bind no Jutsu' on Sasuke, someone go untie him then once he's on his feet tie him back up."
Shikamaru nodded and went to sit in front of Sasuke then performed his technique; once this was done Naruto did the un-tying and re-tying part. The Uchiha wasn't too happy about this, but nothing was said between them. Once it was all done Kakashi asked Naruto and Shikamaru to guard the Uchiha also advising that Naruto should make some clones to help guard him
Finally ready, they started down a path they figured would take them to or at least close to the wrecked craft. Not long after starting they came across a tunnel, thankfully they could see a faint light at the end of the tunnel. Once they came out on the other side they continued down the path, after a minute of weaving through a path that cut between two red rock walls, they saw smoke rising into the air.
"That must be it." Shikamaru spoke a hushed tone.
"Indeed," Kakashi replied turn around, then held up his hand as a sign to stop, "Alright this is how we will approach this, one or two will ease our way along this wall," he stuck thumb over his shoulder pointing to the red rock face. "We will check things out, if everything things ok we will give the sign if not we will come back over got it?"
Everyone but Uchiha nodded.
"However," he continued, "If things go wrong, Shikamaru and Ino," He pointed to them, "You will act as cover since your techniques and stop most in their tracks, so be ready."
They nodded, confirming they understood.
"Then that leaves me and Naruto," Sakura spoke with a little uncertainty in her voice.
Naruto smiled thinking he might be the one of the two taking the front.
"While Naruto is pretty good at stealth when he wants to be," Kakashi replied, "He will stay back too, that leaves you and me Sakura," Kakashi finished.
"Huh?" Naruto was left confused after Kakashi's praise at his stealth abilities.
Kakashi explained, "Like I said Naruto you're a good stealth ninja but you're a good assault ninja too. And Nara-san and Yamanaka-san may need some defense, also someone has to watch Sasuke besides your clones and they might pop at any moment."
Naruto quickly pondered on this, then figured his sensei must be right, besides no use arguing. So he nodded his head in agreement.
Kakashi smiled while his eye went into an upside down U, thankful this blond student wasn't going to argue. Besides that orange outfit might give them away.
The three nin acting as cover and their prisoner backed up the path a little, while Kakashi and Sakura walked toward the end then got up against the wall. Sakura took front while Kakashi took the back, easing around slowly they looked around the round corner of the stone wall trying to get a view of crash site.
Sakura kneaded down since she was much shorter than her sensei, stretching her neck as much as she could she caught a glimpse of what appeared to be three people.
"Kakashi-sensei, I can see the occupants," she whispered.
Kakashi hovering over her a little did the same while taking care not to let too much of silver hair be exposed, he spotted the people standing in front of a yellow and red air craft while taking careful note of their appearance.
He first saw what appeared to be a young blond girl wearing a large red cap with a metal plate on it; she looked to be around all the genin's age, her hair stuck from under her cap like spikes in the back coming around the sides of her face framing it. As for her attire she wore a small red short sleeve shirt which exposed her mid drift, she also wore a matching VERY short pair of shorts. Which were held up by a belt due to her figure, while her shirt would be exposing her mid drift apparently the girl wore a black skin tight outfit under her red clothing which showed off her figure, and knowing the present kunoichi she probably envied it as would the pale blond. The black skin tight outfit seems to cover as far from her shoulders down a little past her shorts, looking down at her shoes it was no surprised that she apparently loves red since they were too. Over all thought she is quiet pretty.
Next to the young blond is a young boy who also looked to be about her age, first thing Kakashi couldn't help notice with a raised eye brow is besides the color contrast to his fellow teen was…wow…every each of his body up to his neck was covered in blue metal armor. He looked ready for battle and to beat it looked difficult to remove, this fact alone besides how much it must weigh made Kakashi wonder why he wore such a thing.
Moving along there wasn't much else besides the boy's brown hair, which seemed to be another funny contact since the girl's stuck out downwards the boy's stuck out upwards but not spiky. Over all this young fellow was a pretty good looking young man, however that armor would continue to draw more attention. Most of all this boy is most definitely not a ninja.
Last was a elderly old man, right off one would notice he is bald but what grabbed Kakashi's attention was that half of his head is metal and not only that his ears and eyes seemed to either being covered or were replaced by strange artificial ones, this man must have lost his real hearing and sight organs somehow. Next his face was covered by a large white spiky beard, as for his outfit which compared to the two teens beside him was normal. He wore a brown vest, with a white dress shirt underneath and dark dress pants, with brown dress shoes.
One thought came to Kakashi's mind "Interesting group"
"Rather unique bunch are they?" Kakashi whispered.
Sakura nodded her head, "Yes, think they could be ninja? At least in henge?"
Kakashi shook his head in disagreement, "No I doubt it. You can probably guess why already."
Sakura knew that previous question didn't need to be asked, "Yeah…looking like that…it draws too much attention, especially for a henge."
"Yes," Kakashi confirmed, "Especially that boy, while he looks ready for battle, it isn't very practical for ninja wear."
Sakura looked with a questioning expression, "Do you know why sensei? It doesn't look like samurai armor."
Kakashi shook his head, "No clue, I never seen anything like it before."
Sakura looked back at the group of odd looking people, she couldn't come up with a answer herself even with all the books regarding history she read this was definite different from most cultures.
"So…should we trying approaching? They don't seem armed."
"We could, we just need to get Naru….huh?" Kakashi's voice trailed off suddenly.
What is it Kakashi-sensei?" Sakura asked confused looking back up at him.
Kakashi pointed in the direction of the group but a little more to the ground.
Sakura looks back at them not seeing anything unusual, until she caught sight of a brown and grey object just below her gaze.
She saw a strange small creature in front of her doing some odd dance, it had the head of a rosy cheeked monkey yet it's body was a light grey and shaped like a tea cup. It also had two small ball shaped hands in front of it's body and small brown feet with a skinny grey tail. The dance the creature was doing consisted simply of the monkey creature quickly shaking it's hands up and down repeatedly then leans to the side. Then repeats the previous motions and leans to the opposite side and repeats again.
Sakura even though knowing how strange looking the creature was, she actually though it was kind of cute looking. Though Sakura was confused by it's odd action and was somewhat afraid it would draw attention.
The monkey creature finally stopped moving after Sakura and Kakashi became aware of it's presence, the little monkey just looked at them with it's head cocked to the side in a questioning manner.
Kakashi was a little worried now, they've been discovered but it was by a small monkey like creature, as long they didn't scare the little thing maybe it would go away, however they didn't know it's exact nature.
Sakura just stared at it for a moment waiting for it to do something, due to nervousness and concentrating on staring at it, she nearly jumped and screamed at the next thing it did. It spoke… however what it spoke sounded like nothing more than gibberish.
Sakura and Kakashi were however still alarmed, since it was making noise, Sakura not knowing what they should do started shushing it quietly pleading for it to be quiet. To their relief the little thing stopped 'speaking', however it's innocent rosy cheeked happy expression was replaced by one of what looked like annoyance. Sakura started to get a little worried by this development.
Kakashi wasn't faring any better in his mind, when the pesky little monkey shut it's trap it was staring at them with a annoyed glare, and what it did next was even more alarming.

There ya go three extra pages of story for this chapter, and I may continue with this instead of just nine pages I could instead do twelve. Story is still a little slow but next chapter everything should speed since our heroes will finally meet, I will admit I wanted for them to meet in this chapter. But I wanted everything that takes place to make sense and stay true to the characters; also the meeting with the flutter crew took place on page fifteen. So I already have a head start and I will decide where it will go from there and WILL have it out later this week…I hope. Like always reviews and suggestions are always appreciated, also let me know if I made any errors, since nothing is perfect after all.
