"…So Itachi…was here?" Asked Sakura.

"He's the only one who possesses the Mangekyo Sharingan…"

(By the way, it couldn't have been Sasuke because Naruto was his closest friend, and in order to gain the Mangekyo Sharingan you must kill your closest friend (Naruto is still alive))

Sai and Yamato came running towards Kakashi when they noticed what Kakashi was looking at.

"Woah… w-what happened?"

"Long story short, Itachi was here.

"You mean the man who massacred the Uchiha clan?"

"Yeah…"

"That person… the one who made Sasuke-kun suffer… our worst enemy!" thought Sakura.

"We have no time to lose so let's get going,"


"So this is it, the land of sound,"

The skies were gray, overflowing with sadness and lost hope, around them were tall, sharp hills, it looked as if it was staring down on them.

"Now we have to locate the base, we'll split up and if you find anything suspicious let us know in about ten minutes,"

"Alright, split up!"

Sakura POV

"Geez, Orochimaru sure does like dark, creepy places…"

Sakura walked up to the side of the hill, she looked a little closer and saw something odd.

"I wonder why this part of the hill is bare while the rest has grass on it…"

"Only one way to find out…"

"BOOM"

In front of Sakura was a pathway leading into the hill.

"I got to go tell Kakashi this,"

End Sakura POV


"Did anyone see anything?"

"Sorry"

"Nope"

"Nothing"

Sakura made her appearance and before Kakashi could ask, she said, "I did."

"It was on the side of the hills, it was a cave! Follow me,"

When everyone arrived at the cave, they were heading in when they heard a faint noise, talking of some sort.

"…what was that?" Sakura whispered.

"I don't know, let's find out."

Naruto, Sakura, Kakashi, Sai, and Yamato run up and found 3 passage ways.

"Ok let's split up into 3 groups, Sai and Yamato go left, Sakura and Naruto go right, and I'll go by myself through the center,"

Everyone parted ways; all feeling like something was bound to happen.


Naruto and Sakura POV

"Heh-heh, I'm alone with Sakura-Chan, I have to thank Kakashi-sensei later. Wait, I'm supposed to be focused on finding Sasuke!… yeah right Naruto like you can focus..." Naruto argued with himself.

Sakura looked at Naruto and thought, "I know Naruto got stronger, but is it enough to defeat Orochimaru and Sasuke-Kun?"

It seemed like the tunnel went on forever until finally Naruto saw a light up ahead.

"Sakura, look!"

Sakura turned her attention to the light. Soon enough, Naruto and Sakura sprinted towards the light, and they found themselves in a room. The room felt damp and the walls were as slimy as Orochimaru himself. In the middle of the room there was a table that had a lot of shurikens and kunai on it. Sakura was trailing her fingers on the wall when she felt a door knob, no two…, no three!

"Naruto, look at this!

"Open them!" Naruto said excitedly but cautious at the same time.

Sakura opened the far left first. It was a closet; it had nothing in it but a strange blue cloth. Next came the center door, it was a bathroom that had a shower, a toilet, and a sink, nothing special. She opened the last door and saw that it was another room, a bedroom. In it had a bed (nothing special) but the thing that caught Sakura's eye was not the bed, but the bedside table. Naruto and Sakura stepped in and started to examine the room. Sakura went straight towards the table and saw that there was a picture frame on the table. Sakura picked up the picture and looked at it, but it was strange, it had no picture in it. Sakura was about to put it down when she saw something strange. "Why did the picture frame have a piece of a photo on the bottom?" She tore out the supposedly "back of the picture frame" and saw the real picture. Sakura couldn't believe her eyes.


"You know that they are here, don't you?"

"Only a fool wouldn't be able to notice it…"

"(Chuckles) so… what are you going to do about it?"

"…"

"Those fools from Konoha are quite amusing, just watching them squirm makes me laugh,"

"…"

"Those Konoha weaklings will die this time in both of our hands… right, Sasuke-kun?"


"It can't be!"

The picture was the famous picture of team seven. (Lol Sasuke really did keep it!)

"So that means… this is Sasuke-kun's room…!"
