"Conversation"

'thoughts'

(Is kui talking to Naruto through telepathy)

----------------------------------------------------------------

Sasuke was getting tired. He knew he couldn't take all 50 of his attackers; all he could do is hold them off and hope that help arrived. He would have shouted for help, but one of the men had done something strange to his throat, and now he could make a sound. What ever it was that he had done, it wasn't affecting his ability to breathe, just his ability to talk.

As another one of the men tried to put him in a chokehold, Sasuke grab the man's arm and throw him over his shoulder and into another group of attackers.

'How did they hide themselves so well? I couldn't even feel their chakra following us.' he thought, throwing a kick into one of the men's stomachs.

As Sasuke continued to fight, he had the feeling that he was merely being tired down and that someone that he really didn't want to deal with was very close by watching his every move. That feeling increased as more men came running out from behind trees to attack.

Gritting his teeth and growling, Sasuke continued to fight the ever growing amount of enemies, hoping that someone was going to come soon and save him. Something he never would admit to anyone. Well… maybe Naruto…

--------------------------------------------------------------

Naruto, Sakura, and Kakashi picked up their speeds as the neared the source of the shouts.

"DAMN IT! This is taking to long, we got to go faster!" Naruto shouted, panicking as he thought of the prophecy that they had seen, this could be the start of it, catching Sasuke would be a very good way to get Naruto into Orochimaru's layer.

"calm down Naruto! Panicking isn't going to help anyone. And we ARE moving as fast as we can, you don't have to keep telling us to move faster, it's not like we're trying to slow this down!"

------------------------back with Sasuke----------------

Sasuke was now fully out of breath. He had used up the last of his chakra and was now almost completely unable to move. Glair at the attackers around him, Sasuke growled and decided to try one last move, but unfortunately, his body didn't want to cooperate with him.

He couldn't move.

Sasuke's eyes turned into giant diner plates as he realized that he could no longer move. It was one of the worst things that could happen in this situation and he knew it. Unable to even yell for help or to move his own body, Sasuke was quickly tide up and carried off.

'Naruto! Save me!' he thought, before he was knocked unconscious.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Naruto could feel that something was very wrong before they even got to the site of Sasuke's battle. Once they got there he knew he was right. The place was a mess, and Sasuke was nowhere in site. And neither were any enemies.

Looking around at the damage, Kakashi couldn't help but feel the bottom of his stomach fall out. There was so much damage. The entire place was covered in kunai, shuriken and scorch marks. There were broken branches everywhere and blood and bodies littered the ground, the only happy thought that passed though the groups minds as the searched the bodies was that Sasuke's wasn't among them, which meant that he was still alive, but it also meant that he was most likely trapped and being taken to Orochimaru, which wasn't a good thing at all.

Looking over at Naruto, Kakashi and Sakura both felt as though the world had dropped out from beneath them. The light that had once shown in Naruto's eyes, was now gone. At that was left was a sense of sadness that none of them could even claimed to understand. Sasuke had once again been taken away from him, and it was tearing him up inside.

Naruto slowly turned toward the others. One look and they knew. He was going after him.

Sakura smiled at him in a way that let him know that she was with him, and that she wasn't going to turn back under any circumstance.

The two looked at Kakashi and smirked when they saw him summon up several of his dogs. The fight was still own!

------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile in Suna (a/n -gets attacked and hugged half to death by shini-)
------------------------------------------------------------

Kui and boba had just arrived at the gates of the sand village. Both knew something bad had happened to one of their friends who they had only recently left and both were going to make sure that they all got the help that they needed.

"Come along Kui, we don't have time to waist! We need to get to the Kazekage as soon as possible, if we do not then something foul may happen to little Naruto! And we can not let that happen!" said the old seer as she walked quickly toward the building that she knew housed the leaders of the village.

Kui walked as fast as he could into hopes of getting their before it was too late, they needed to talk to Gaara and they needed to do so now!

After several minutes of walking through the large village the two finally managed to reach their destination. Sighing with relief, they both stepped up to the gates of the village capital. Unfortunately, when they attempted to enter said building several chuunin guards stepped forward in an attempted stop them from proceeding.

"HOLT! Who goes their?! This area is off limits to anyone with out written permeation or messages from the other villages! If you have any questions or need to higher us for a mission then please see the desk near the south gate!" one of the guards said, practically yelling in the woman's face as he spoke.

"please! I need to speak with Gaara! It's an emergency! Naruto Uzumaki might be in grave danger and he is the only one that can help!" she said, once more trying to step forward and head into the building.

"you can't go in! if there is anything that you need to higher us for please see the desk at the south gate! I have already said this once, so do not make me repeat myself again" said the guard while shaving old lady boba back from the entrance. The other guards had started to gather thinking that they were about to get a chance to have a little fun. Picking on visitors was one of their favorite past times, and beating them up was even better.

boba was shocked when the guard had shoved her away from the entrance, and was even more shocked at the fact that the idiot had the balls to actually threaten her like that.

'he did not just threaten me! augh na he didn't! gramas about to whip some ass!' she thought as her face suddenly darkened. she glared at the men in front of her, making her lips into the thinnest of lines and lowering her eyebrows until it was almost imposable to see her eyes. huffing once more, old lady boba hiked up her dress until it was just above her knees and then proceeded to beat the living daylights out of them.

"DIDN"T YOUR MOTHER EVER TELL YOU NOT TO PICK ON LITTLE OLD LADIES!" she said, as she bent one of the guards over her knees and started so spank him. "learn. To. Respect. Your. El-ders!" she yelled, punctuating each word with an extremely painful slap to his behind.

After several minutes of spanking each guard, making sure that they couldn't sit after words, old lady boba stood up and began dusting herself off. She was slightly startled however when she heard a voice from behind her.

"you know, if you wanted to punish them, you could just stuff them into your bag and that that tree of yours have them, Boba-sama." said a feminine voice, making old lady boba rub the back of her head as she turned around to look at the owner of said voice.

"ow tamari, you know that old boy would probably just kill them! Besides, you know very well that I can whip these little whippersnappers into shape fast enough!" she said, smiling at the blond woman that stood in front of her.

In all the time that she had known tamari, the blond girl hadn't changed a single bit. She still had her hair in the three pony-tails that she had always had it in, (a/n: it's true, most people think that she only has 2 but if you look at the back of her head, she has 3 in an upside down triangle) she also still wore the same outfit and still carried around her fan. Apart from that, the only difference to her was her height, and the fact that she now wore her head band ON her head, instead of around her neck.

Sighing deeply, old lady boba slowly came out of her thoughts to deal with the problem at hand.

"tamari-chan, I'm here because there is a problem. Naruto and Sasuke are in danger and I think that one of them was just kidnapped by Orochimaru while I was on my way here." she stated, looking sadly at the blond woman before her.

Tamari blinked several times at what was just stated to her before she finally understood what it was that was actually being said.

"WHAT?! When did Sasuke-kun get back??? Why didn't anyone tell me! Oh-my-god! I need to do my hair! Put on some make-up! So much to do so little time!" she shouted, as she started heading back into the building. She was about to head directly for her room, but was stopped by a wizened old hand on her shoulder.

"tamari! Listen to me! Sasuke might be in great danger! You must take me to Gaara this instant! Their isn't any time to waist!" she said, ignoring the fact that the blond girl still thought that she had a chance. 'isn't she with Shikamaru anyways?' she added as an after thought.

Nodding her head in understanding, the group headed out to the Kazekage office where they knew that Gaara was, ignoring the crying guards who kept screaming about their backsides and crazy old woman.
