NARUTO - Hidden Village of the Sun

Chapter 5

"Stop it, you bastards!" Naruto yelled. They were poking him and Kakashi with sticks.

Kakashi was holding his perverted book in his mouth and reading it. "What the Hell!? You're reading your book now!? Can't you get us out of this mess!?" Naruto exclaimed.

"But it's getting interesting… and I can't use any jutsu with my hands tied up like this anyway," Kakashi said and got back to reading his book.

"OW!!!" Naruto yelled out was poked with a very sharp stick and started to bleed, "Would someone help me!?" He was half-expecting one of the leaf ninja to jump out and save him. But, of course, no one came and they were continually poked with sticks.

************************************************************************

"Let me go!" Chouji yelled. He was tied up, but he used his special technique that multiplied the size of his body so that he could bust out of the ropes. He then punched and knocked down the person who had tied him up. Shino made the bugs come out of his body, scaring away the person that was trying to tie him up, Lee did pulled some moves on the one that tried to tie him up, and Kiba and his dog turned into beasts and beat up the person that tried to tie them up. Sasuke and Neji were able to defeat the person that attacked them easily, but Sakura and Shikamaru weren't so lucky. They were tied up tightly, unable to react in time, and pulled away by two men.

"We should split up. Some of us should go rescue Sakura and Shikamaru and some of us should go and look for Naruto and Kakashi," Sasuke said.

"Lee, Kiba, Chouji, and I will go after Sakura and Shikamaru. You and Neji go and look for Naruto and Kakashi," Shino replied.

"Agreed," Sasuke said and the two groups ran off in opposite directions.

"HEY! Are you just going to leave me here!?" Kimbiamba yelled, still tied to the tree.

************************************************************************

"Damn! We'll never be able to find them in this darkness!" Chouji complained.

Sniff, sniff. "They aren't too far away," said Kiba, "Let's just follow my nose."

They ran along for awhile, and soon became tired. Sniff, sniff. "They're close! We're almost there!" Then, they stumbled upon the mountains. They loomed tall over them. Small openings that went into the mountains were visible, but it seemed impossible to reach them.

"Woah… those are big mountains!" Lee exclaimed, "Where's Sakura and Shikamaru?"

Sniff, sniff. "Oh shit…" Kiba said.

"I guess that means we have to climb," said Shino.

************************************************************************

"Finally someone comes to help us!" Naruto said, relieved. Neji, using the power of his Byakugan, was able to find them. Kakashi and him were both stained with blood, and they were still bleeding in some parts of their bodies. They had been stabbed repeatedly with sharp sticks. Sasuke and Neji both beat up the enemies with ease and untied Naruto and Kakashi.

"Ow…" Naruto was hurt all over. He fell to the ground. Kakashi was hurt a lot, too, but he managed to stay up by leaning on a tree.

"They've both lost a lot of blood…" Neji said, "We should get them back to the village so they can be treated by Tsunade."

"Where's everyone else!?" Naruto yelled, forcing himself to stand up. Neji explained that everyone else was chasing after the men that took Shikamaru and Sakura.

"Sakura! I'm coming!" Naruto exclaimed as he ran off.

"Heh… that idiot…" Kakashi said as he fell to the ground.

************************************************************************

"Naruto!" Sasuke yelled as he chased after him. Neji was going back to the village with Kakashi so that he could be treated by Tsunade.

"Naruto! You're in no condition to fight, you idiot!" Sasuke exclaimed. He had caught up to him.

"I'm going after them! I'm not going to let them get killed!" Naruto said, determined. He was bleeding even more now, and Sasuke was amazed that he could stand, let alone run.

"Fine! It's not like I actually care about you!" Sasuke said as both of them continued on.

************************************************************************

"D… Damn it… this… is hard to climb…" Lee said, as they were all slowly climbing up the mountain. Kiba could smell them inside the mountain, so they were climbing up to an entrance into it.

"WAAAAAA!" Chouji yelled as he lost his grip and fell. Shino grabbed his scarf in time and pulled him back up. Kiba was climbing up quickly.

"This is easy!" Kiba exclaimed. He reached the entrance first and he looked into it to find… complete darkness.

Sniff, sniff. "Hurry up!" Kiba yelled. He didn't only smell Sakura, Shikamaru, and the two men's scents. He smelled hundreds of other people. When they had all reached the entrance, they walked through the darkness. Kiba held on to Chouji's scarf, with Shino and Lee holding on to Chouji, and Kiba leading them all through the darkness. They finally reached an area that was lit up. It was the area that the High Priest competition was taking place in.
