Sasuke you pansy!
"Sorry Sasuke. I forgot the password." Naruto said.
"Naruto! I know you're trying to act cool and rescue us but that can't happen! RUN!" Sasuke shouted.
"No, don't run away! Stay here and fight! Please! Our team is in trouble and we need your help!" Kenji asked Naruto.
Sasuke scowled and turned to her. "You stay out of this! You said it yourself! We're all in trouble now!" Sasuke yelled at her.
She grunted and jumped in front of her. "Things are different now! All we need to do is keep our scroll and team safe!" she said.
"No!" Sasuke yelled.
? Kenji gave him a questioning look. "I'm giving him the scroll." he said. Kenji dropped her mouth down and looked at him with disgust. Sasuke took out the Heaven scroll. "WHAT ARE YOU THINKING!?" Naruto shouted at him.
"You shut up! Look around you, Sakura's hurt and Kenji's wounded!" Sasuke said.
"You. PANSY!" Kenji shouted and punched Sasuke in the cheek. "Gimme that!" she growled and snatched the scroll. Sasuke was sent to another branch again. "I knew this guy before you were 4 feet tall! Once you would hand the scroll over he would've just killed us you moron!" Kenji scolded him.
Sakura gasped. The Grass ninja Shiore, rolled out her tongue again, "She's right. It could've gone either way but I can just kill you and take the scroll." she said.
Kenji put the scroll in her ninja tool pouch and then ran after her creepy opponent. "She's coming." the Shiore thought and stood in a stance. Kenji squeezed her fingers into a finger into a fist and punched her. She caught Kenji's fist with a smirk. "Raiton." (Lightning style).
Shiore got electrocuted by lightning that seemed to come from Kenji's fist. Shiore let go and stumbled back. Kenji kicked her and sent her flying quickly into a tree. Kenji made the snake, dragon, rabbit, tiger hand seals. "Katon: Ryuuka no jutsu!" (Fire style: Dragon Flame jutsu). A strong stream of fire blew from her mouth.
"Is it done?" Sakura asked. Kenji looked into the smoke and saw her put blood on Shiore's arm. "Kuchiyose no jutsu." (Summoning Jutsu) she said.
"Shimatta!" Kenji thought and jerked to the side just on time.
! ! ! Sakura gasped as she saw a large snake. "That was close!" Kenji thought, she had landed right next to Sasuke. "Man! This guy can't do anything like this." she thought about him.
! Then a massive pain pricked her in the back of her neck. She fell back and grasped the back of her neck with her right hand. "Why now!?" she thought.
"How're you feeling?" Shiore on her snake asked. Kenji scowled at her, "That curse mark is very powerful. . . So right now you're vulnerable." she said and her snake came towards Kenji and Sasuke. "Kuso!" she groaned. The curse mark started spreading over her face.
Then the snake was stopped by Naruto. Kenji and Sasuke just stared at him, his head was down. "Suge. Ano chikara. . ." (Amazing. That power. . .) Kenji said.
"Yo, are you hurt?" Naruto asked. "Scaredy cat." he looked straight into Sasuke's face.
"Those eyes. . ." Kenji saw the slit pupils and the bright red irises. "I thought this would happen, it's only natural Naruto would get angered by him." she thought. "I shouldn't be sitting around!" she yelled at herself consciously. She quickly stood up and jumped past Shiore.
She landed past her with a kunai that had blood on it. Shiore smirked she only had a scratch on her face. "Is that all you can do in that state?" she asked.
Kenji didn't respond and just wiped the blood off with her fingers. Then she named and performed seals at the same time. "Hitsuji, saru, tori, inu, i." she named. "Gyaku Kuchiyose no Jutsu!" (Reverse Summoning Jutsu). The large snake disappeared in smoke.
! "What!? How did she do that? She reversed the Summoning jutsu." the older woman thought and Naruto punched her.
"For the Summoning jutsu you have to abide by a couple rules." Kenji started. Explanation using chibis. "First, you must make a contract with your summoning animal signed with your own blood." she said. Chibi Shiore writes name on a scroll with blood. "Even when you've made your contract the summoning animal can only be transported via blood with seals." she said next. Chibi bites the top of it's stubby hand and slams it on the ground. A large snake appears from the spot. "But, if someone else comes and obtains the contractor's blood." she said. A chibi Kenji appears and scratches the Grass ninja while taking blood. "All they need to do is form the correct hand seals backwards and the jutsu will ultimately be reversed." she explained. Chibi Kenji slammed her stubby hand into the ground and the snake disappears.
"So that's it. . . She'd make a great replacement if I could control her." Shiore thought. "But now that she's getting used to her eyes and learning more jutsu, it might be better if I just kill her." she thought. "I'll get to that later." she lifted Naruto by the tongue.
Sakura and Kenji gasped. Naruto struggled to get free but couldn't. Shiore lifted Naruto's clothing enough to reveal the seal and held one hand behind her back. "Sasuke-kun! Please help Naruto!" Sakura pleaded.
"Mou ii, Sakura!" Kenji scolded. "Sasuke's not a hero! He won't do anything!" she said. She turned to Sasuke, "I just hope he takes his own advice. . ." she said. Her curse mark uncovered her face. "Looks like the seal's fine." she thought. "And you!" she pointed at Shiore. "Let go of him right now." she said coldly.
"She seems to have a weakness for this boy. . ." Shiore thought. Kenji threw shurikens at her but before they could make it Shiore put a seal over Naruto's preexisting seal. She dodged the throwing stars and tossed Naruto away. Kenji extended her arm out, "Bansho Tennin." a strong force pulled Naruto to her and saved him from falling. She caught him in her arms. "Yokatta." she thought.
She carefully sat him next to her, "He's unconscious. It's best if he rests for now." she thought.
"Do you kids want to learn something interesting?" Shiore asked. When she got everyone's attention she peeled off her skin over her right eye. Sakura started shaking, "Your teammate right there didn't always have her Rinnegan, she awakened it when her life changed forever. By me, Orochimaru." a different voice overlapped Shiore's. She outstretched her neck to Sasuke and bit him on the neck.
When Sasuke was released he fell to his knees. Orochimaru took out another snake sword and slashed it at Kenji who was gashed on her left arm when she blocked. She was knocked off the branch but before she went down she extended her good arm out. "Shinra Tensei."
Orochimaru was blasted away at almost a 100 miles an hour. Then Kenji started falling multiple stories, "Agh!" she hit the ground hard on her left side. Sakura heard the crash, "She fell!" Sakura thought.
On the ground Kenji's hair covered the top of her face and blood had come out from her mouth. "Ite." she said.
Above Sasuke was screaming in pain, Sakura jumped over to him and she had no clue what to do. She just screamed for Naruto and Sasuke just passed out on her. "What should I do?" she asked.
"First, you have stop whining like brat." Kenji's voice echoed and Sakura jerked her head way up to see Kenji leaning on a tree. Her head was bleeding, it spilled down her face from underneath her headband. A drop of her blood fell on the wood and Sakura gasped.
"How are you still alive? You should've fallen to death, I heard you." Sakura said.
"Magic." Kenji said sarcastically and walked over to Naruto. She squatted down and put him over her shoulder. "I survived but I hit my head and broke my left arm. In addition to my stab wound it's pretty bad." Kenji said truthfully. "Demo." she said.
! Sakura lightly gasped. "She's going to die at this rate!" she thought.
"Neither Naruto or Sasuke can fight and I doubt you can defend them." Kenji said. "Let's go, right now we need to find them a place to rest." she said.
"Hai." Sakura said and supported Sasuke. When she did she started tearing up. Kenji just looked at her.
"Tch!" she said through her teeth and jumped next to her. "Stop crying." she said. Sakura didn't listen though. Kenji sighed, "Man. Oi!" she said and Sakura looked up at her. "I apologize, I was a jerk for saying you're a bad shinobi. And I uhhhh. . . Cheated. Off of you in the first exam." Kenji said and Sakura stopped crying. "I know you don't like me, because of my personality. I can't help it, to me being tough is more important than being pretty." she said. "But I don't dislike you back. You're my comrade even if you don't consider me one." Kenji said.
! Sakura got a shock and instantly remembered all the times she insulted Kenji before.
"Ikoh." Kenji's steps made unique noises on the wood but she stopped and turned back to Sakura. "Sakura keep up, there are a lot of huge animals ahead. So you have to follow me if you don't want to get mauled to death." she told her
Sakura ran after her. "That's right. . ." Kenji thought and she remembered that same image that came to her when she got the Chunin exam application. The memory of those corpses. . . "Being tough is more important than being pretty. . ." she thought.
