Chapter 10

Naruto and Sasuke tried for hours to find the head village ninjas, but there was no luck. Every sensei and jounin was gone and the night was quickly turning into day.

"Sasuke what are we going to do?" Naruto asked his big blue eyes actually looking nervous. Sasuke didn't answer and quickly ran towards the wall and paced up and down like a pitbull on a leash. He didn't know what to do either.

Naruto ran to him and grabbed him by the collar of his shirt, "Sasuke we have to do something! We can't just walk around and wait for this to go away!" Naruto yelled at him.

Sasuke stiffened and pushed him away quickly listening to something in the distance from the forest.

"They're coming," Sasuke said grabbing his kunai and looking at Naruto, "We've got to split up," he said quickly bolting away leaving Naruto to fend for himself.

He swiftly jumped onto the wall outlining Konoha so he could try to see where they were coming from. He closed his eyes pausing for a slow second when he then opened them again Sharigan now fully activated. He carefully scanned the forest for the Sound ninjas and saw them coming in from the north and northwest.

He jumped down running as fast as he could to find Naruto so he could tell him where they were coming from.

As he ran he heard a noise like someone running next to him and he quickly lunged toward the left with his kunai in hand so he could stab the person easily if needed.

The person grabbed Sasuke's wrist with the kunai and Sasuke kicked at the person's waist making contact. The figure grabbed at his leg and Sasuke threw a punch that to his surprise the person caught before it could make contact.

"Calm down Sasuke," a familiar voice laughed in an amused way. Sasuke narrowed his eyes at his masked sensei in fury.

"Where the hell have you been? Why can't you just get my attention like a normal person?" he roared in rage.

"Because I find it more to my amusement this way," Kakashi said lightly smiling under his mask.

"I don't have time for this. You need to tell everyone the Sound is coming-" Sasuke was cut off by Kakashi's loud howling laughter. Kakashi laughed slapping his knee and bending over his silver hair covering his face.

"What the fuck is wrong with you?" Sasuke yelled shoving Kakashi trying to get his attention.

"Sasuke, do you really think that we didn't know what that bastard Kazama was doing? We knew the whole time, we played the Sound, and they're all coming expecting us not to be ready. And they're going to get one hell of a surprise. Really Sasuke give us some credit." Kakashi sighed scratching his head looking warily at Sasuke with his uncovered eye.

Sasuke forced his mouth to stay closed while he fought the urge to punch Kakashi in his smug face. Not only did Kakashi have a perverted taste in books but he also had a perverted sense of humor.

Sasuke glared at Kakashi waiting for an explanation.

"Sasuke, why can't you just ask a question like a normal person?" Kakashi sighed continuing, "that jutsu is only a simple mind control technique, it only seems more complex if you don't know what it is. It only works if you don't have a strong will or if you don't know about it, otherwise it's useless. It pretty much preys on the helpless and ignorant. It's not as secretive and forbidden as people think, so we put on a show for Kazama so he'd bring the Sound back with him." Kakashi said smiling smugly at Sasuke underneath his mask.

Sasuke turned his head glaring at the area that the Sound was coming from and dismissed Kakashi with his signature, "hn."

Sasuke scowled sourly remembering how Tsunade had kicked them out of her office without even listening to them. Kazama hadn't done anything to her! She knew along and she was just being stubborn and cruel as usual. He sighed to himself.

Kakashi shook his head in a disappointed way and made a 'tsk tsk' sound.

Naruto came around a corner walking slowly over to Sasuke's side with a sullen expression. He glared at every jounin that he passed, obviously someone had finally filled him in on the plan.

When Naruto saw Kakashi he perked up and went over yelling at him for not telling them about what was going on sooner and leaving them in the dark about the plan. Kakashi rolled his eyes walking away from the fox boy, Naruto ran after him cursing, flailing his arms, and yelling like a maniac.

Sasuke scanned the area around them more closely with his Sharigan and started noticing the jounin in their positions and more were coming out waiting for the Sound.

Sasuke smirked knowing the Sound was in for a major ass beating. But his smirk quickly turned into a scowl as a quiet growl escaped his lips, he wanted Kazama. He wanted the pleasure of killing Kazama himself and he wasn't going to let someone take that from him.

Sasuke went back onto the wall of Konoha searching the forest with closely his Sharigan looking carefully for Kazama, he finally found him trailing in the back of the group.

Sasuke smiled darkly clenching his fist in eager anticipation.

But there was still one thing Sasuke still couldn't figure out that he dare not ask anyone about. Why had Sakura's face popping up in his mind every few seconds for the last couple days? Usually he thought about her a little bit every now and then because she was his teammate, but the pictures were coming more and more frequently.

He wasn't worried about her was he? Of course not he couldn't be. He was the infamous cold hearted Uchiha never caring for anyone or anything…

So why did her face keep haunting his mind? And why did he kind of like it? The thought of her silky pink hair, her sea-foam twinkling eyes, her soft pink lips, her perfectly curvy figure…

'Damn it!' he thought shaking his head viciously from side to side quickly trying to get all thoughts beside revenge out of his head and failing miserably.

What the hell was this girl doing to him?
