Revenge Gone Awry
Chapter 10
Naruto stared wide-eyed at his sensei, sensing his shock. Kakashi patted him awkwardly on the shoulder. It's amazing how similar our stories are. I'm sure the fourth would be proud of his boy.
"Hey, Naruto?" he began cautiously as the boy snapped out of his trance. "You may not believe this, but our stories are more similar then you think. But I won't tell you why. It'd break your heart.
Naruto looked so confused that Kakashi had to laugh. "Come on kid. It looks like it's about 4 am. Let's get back to camp and sleep before Chouji wakes us up at the crack of dawn with his rumbling stomach."
So, Kakashi and Naruto proceeded to make their way back to the others. When they arrived, Naruto promptly crashed into his sleeping bag and fell asleep. Kakashi on the other hand strolled calmly to his bag and sat down. Muttering calmly he said, "Konan, if you ever show your face again, you will die. Deidara hurt this kid and you will live to regret it."
Kakashi laid back and fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow.

(Konoha)
"Sakura-chan! You look so pretty and youthful in that dress!" Lee exclaimed, pulling Sakura closer as they danced. Sure enough, she looked gorgeous in her black halter-top dress. It had a V neckline with a fuchsia cherry blossom at the point of the V. Her knee length, A-symmetrical skirt complimented her slender legs perfectly. Her strappy heels made her just the right height next to Lee.
Sakura smiled softly and rested her head on his shoulder. Her arms were wrapped around his neck and she was absently playing with his hair. "Thank you Lee!" She replied happily. "You look very handsome yourself." Dressed in an emerald green button down shirt and a pair of black slacks, he was indeed looking very handsome. He grinned cheerfully and rested his head on top of Sakura's inhaling her scent.
"Hey Lee." Sakura pulled away from Lee and touched him lightly on the arm. "You wanna go for a walk?"
Lee looked down into her big eyes and smiled cheekily. "Sure! Let the power of youth guide us!" Lee grabbed her hand happily and they left the All-Konoha dance in the center of Konoha.
They walked hand in hand around the streets of Konoha, talking idly. As their conversation ended, they found themselves in front of the swing where Naruto spent so many of his sad days. They sat down, her on his lap, on the swing.
With one arm wrapped around Sakura's waist Lee at her and slowly began to move the swing. "I have had a lovely time tonight Sakura. You are such a youthful girl."
Sakura turned and looked into his eyes. "Lee, why do you always talk like that?" She looked him up and down and continued. "You look so good like this. Why do you act and dress like Gai?"
Lee sighed and looked down at the ground. Hmmm… why has no body ever asked that before!? "Well, I guess it's because he was the only person who ever believed in me. No one even thought I could become a ninja, except him."
Sakura blinked and stared up at her date. Wow. "Lee, you have always been a better ninja than me. And I have always believed in you."
Lee's eyes lit up as he pulled Sakura into a tight hug. He let go and suddenly kissed her on the forehead. "Sakura-chan, will you be my girlfriend?"
Sakura blushed happily, and kissed him softly on the lips. "Of course Lee."

(Akatsuki Base)
"Itachi-san! Itachi-san! Deidara-sempai was visiting the Kyuubi again!" Tobi had snuck into Itachi's room and made the mistake of jumping out at him when he came in. "AHHH! DON'T KILL ME!"
Itachi glared at the panicking man. Emotionless as always he picked Tobi up by the collar and dropped him on the bed. He left tobi cowering on his bed and went to lock the door. Turning back to the man still sprawled across his bed, Itachi glared down at the quivering cloak. "Speak"
"Tobi saw Deidara-sempai leave base late last night. " Tobi shook in fright as he gave his answer. "And when Deidara-sempai returned, Tobi was looking for him. He started blushing and grinning when Tobi mentioned his girlfriend. Tobi came here right after he saw Deidara-sempai, just like Itachi-san told him to. Tobi is good boy."
Itachi sighed in annoyance, immediately causing Tobi to shut up. So he really has become attached to Naruto, hasn't he? I wonder if he knows exactly who Deidara is… "Your right Tobi. You are a good boy. Now get out of my room before I hurt you like I hurt Sasori."
Tobi squeaked as he scrambled off after Itachi's bed and ran towards the door. Forgetting it was locked, he smacked head first into it, brining the first slightly positive emotion out of Itachi that Tobi had ever seen. Laughing cruelly, Itachi flicked his finger towards the door. Hearing it unlock, Tobi quickly got up and ran straight for his room.
Upon reaching it, Tobi ran towards his bed and sat there whimpering for the next half hour

(Clearing- 7am)
GROWLLLL
Chouji's stomach was complaining about the lack of food within it. It had started rumbling around 6:30, waking up most of the camp.
"Is the food ready yet Kiba?" Chouji whined, not used to having to wait for food. "I'm hungry!!!"
"We're ALL hungry!" The rest of the group shrieked, not appreciating Chouji's incessant complaining.
When breakfast was finally ready, it was a very awkward meal. Naruto kept shooting Kakashi strange glances that thoroughly confused his teammates, Kiba shot glares at Chouji, who was complaining about the food, and Neji, Shikamaru, and Shino just sat there eating and observing.
It was almost a welcomed break from all the tension when Sai jumped through the trees, landing on a very tired Naruto. He quickly explained why he was there, and soon everyone was ready to travel again.
As they were about to leave, Sai sad the last thing anyone would expect to hear from a ninja (other than Sai); "Let's go get Itachi! Hmm… I wonder if he has a bigger dick then Naruto…"
Sai bounded off, leaving behind a furious and blushing Naruto.
