Chapter 6: Crushes

As they ran in Aka knew this was gonna be bad she was surrounded by friends who she needed to pretend were enemies, and her own team were enemies she needed to pretend were friends. Also Aka knew it wouldn't be long til Orochimaru would appear so she told the group she was gonna scan farther, because she was faster and ran off to hide just a short while afterwards they had reached were Aka was hiding, but they didn't notice her and Orochimaru appeared. Oh great right where I'm hiding too, I thought.

"Hello there my precious Sasuke," said Orochimaru and as soon as that was said they fought Aka really didn't see anything she was too busy trying to not be seen to seen, but before the curse mark was given he saw her.

"Ah my little princess of the sound," he said automatically dragging her out to see how'd she manage.

"You won't do this" she automatically said and kicked him which he was too slow to dodge, or just didn't want to the kick knocking him back into another tree.

"Heh you always knew what to do to prove yourself," Orochimaru said as he slammed into her and just as she was about to slam into a tree she said thanks and disappeared. Damn I gave her the perfect get away with that no matter, Orochimaru thought and he automatically just bit Sasuke after that and gave him a curse mark as he collapsed.

"Just a lil parting gift soon Sasuke will seek me out."

"Wait what did you do to Sasuke!" yelled Sakura but it was no use Orochimaru just disappeared without trace just as Aka reappeared.

"Sorry about that guess I kinda fell out of the hit."

"No matter that we gotta get them somewhere safe," said Sakura taking Sasuke letting Aka get Naruto. They took them under a huge tree and they guarded them setting up traps. And just an hour or two after the traps were set Aka glanced towards the trees byakugan activated, then sharingan as she automatically recognized Kin, Zaku, and Dosu hiding.

"Sakura I better get some fresh water I'll be back in a minute."

"Uh ok," said Sakura not understanding since she just got fresh water but decides not to ask and started dozing off while watching them. Then the sound ninja come out of hiding and there's a huge fight as all the genin come out to fight.

While the fight was going on Aka was actually at the river just thinking actually deciding to drink a bit until Kabuto came out.

"Orochimaru told me you were here figured I should find you let me guess Sound Nin came out and you ran," said Kabuto grinning mischievously.

"Of course I ran what do you suspect I have to pretend my friends are enemies and my enemies are friends."

"Don't worry it will all end soon Lord Orochimaru said we'll attack during the 3rd exam figured you should know now I better go the fight should be done soon goodbye my little student."

"Goodbye Kabuto sensei," said Aka starting to turn away, only to have Kabuto make her turn around so he could kiss her on the lips.

"I love you," said Kabuto finally leaving.

"Uh he knows I hate that. Why does he love me? It's absurd one day he's gonna get killed for that," I whined. And maybe the 3rd exams will be the perfect time I think the tables finally turned, Aka thought getting some water and heading back arriving just as the Sound Nin left.

"Wow everyone's here what did I miss?"

"YOU LEFT THEM HERE WITH ONLY THIS LIL MISS FOREHEAD AND YOU ALMOST GOT SASUKE-KUN KILLED!" said Ino getting really angry.

"Uh there are 7 genin here and you're only worried about him?"

"Uh well," Ino was just about to get riled up again when Lee's teammates came and got him and Ino decided they should go as well Aka just now noticing Naruto and Sasuke are awake.

"OH ITS SO GOOD YOUR AWAKE!" exclaimed Aka excitedly going straight to Naruto hugging and kissing him happily. Damn that girl goes straight for Naruto she use to be mine for a few weeks and now she only cares for him what happened to me oh well when it's time to get my power I'm gonna make sure she recognizes me, thought Sasuke. Wow I guess she loves Naruto never thought she'd burst out like that, thought Sakura. They all decide they better get moving and ran towards the river except Naruto and Aka who held him behind a bit.

"Aka what are we doing we gotta get moving," said Naruto still blushing from her sudden outburst just a minute ago.

"Just wanted to say I love you," whispered Aka giving him one last sweet kiss on the lips before running off knowing the whole time Kabuto saw and heard it. Teach him to mess with me I'm going to mess back, and with a person I've been waiting so long to get a kiss from too it's a win, win, she thought running to catch up. And she knew Naruto was right behind with lots of questions which hopefully soon she would answer.
