Chapter Four

Disclaimer: I mourn because I don't own Naruto… (Sigh) I wish upon a star…

Sakura sat attentively across from Sasuke in silence. The fire crackled almost silently as emerald met onyx.

"Well Uchiha? What are you gonna tell me?" Sasuke sighed.

"Well," Sasuke looked deep into the fire wondering if he should tell her. She might run away, faint or worse… scold him.

"Sakura, my brother," he failed to say his name, "Has this crazy idea that you're an angel," (A\N: Itachi from a previous battle that I will write later thinks this… I know, I know… it's kinda corny but hay… it works)

"Wha…?" she said, her jaw dropping.

"I know and he wants to kill you. So I kinda took you so you wouldn't be in any danger… until he figures out I took you…" he scratched the back of his head. Sakura stared at him in defeat.

'Well then, Uchiha, I believe that I've gotta get training. Bring it on."

"Wait, Sakura there's more then that," Sakura continued to pay attention.

"Sakura… he's been waiting until the new moon to attack the Leaf," Sakura's eyes widened.

"…and take everyone… you… Naruto-dobe… and…" Sasuke laughed half heartedly.

"…and that stupid excuse of a Huugya Neji." Sasuke then pulled out a shaft of sword and handed it to Sakura.

"Are you better at long range fighting, or hand-to-hand combat with weapons?" asked Sasuke,

"I'm pretty good with long range fighting yeah know…" she sounded slightly displeased with herself for that.

"Ok, here yeah go." Sasuke handed her the shaft. The silk around the shaft was red and gold. The metal handle was cold iron.

"A warriors weapon, eh Sakura?" Sakura stared blankly at the shaft.

"Uchiha, stop screwing around, what kinda game are you playing?" she asked, throwing the shaft back at Sasuke.

"Sakura, I thought you'd be smarter then that." Sasuke waved the shaft and a large steel blade came out.

"A retractable blade. Where in hell did you get one of those? They're banned from Konoha yeah know," she said.

"I have my ways. And we're not in Konoha anymore either." He retracted the blade while Sakura stoked the fire.

"So… are we gonna fight Itachi?" she asked, Sasuke nodded.

"Yeah. That's why I'm teaching you all of this, Sakura. Trust me; you don't want to get hurt by him or his little annoying friend, Kisame, (That's it… isn't it?)" Sakura rolled her eyes,

"You've gotten soft, Uchiha. Don't fret. I won't get killed as easily as you probably will be."

Sasuke managed to give her a genuine smile.

"WHAT?"

"YOU HEARD ME BAKA-KUN!" screeched Naruto, Lee was on the verge of pulling out his hair, Sakura… kidnapped… WHILE IN THE BATHTUB?

"How could you let this happen you retard!" he shouted, (O.o, Lee sweared!)

"Well, how was I supposed to stop it! GO in the bathtub with her? Get a brain Fuzzy Eyebrows!" Naruto barked. Lee rolled his eyes.

"We have to rescue her!" he called, Naruto rolled his eyes.

"Obviously door knob. But get this… WE DON'T KNOW WHERE THE HELL SHE IS!" Lee this time rolled his eyes,

"Well, you know what could work? A tracing Jutsu!" he brightened.

"You know that only Kakashi, Sakura and the Hokage could do something like that."

"Why don't we just get someone with a large chakra and ask them!"

"Only Sakura, Kakashi and the Hokage—"

"How about we just go Pokkon?" (Ya know that dog from episode 71? With the Blue cape with the moon symbol on it… that's the dogs name I think…)

"Ok… fine… do it the easy way."

AN: Sorry for such a short chappie! " I had a bit of a writers block. DON'T KILL ME…anyways… please review and continue to read. Peace out!
