Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto (can I stop doing this?)

Thanks to all those who reviewed, and cause of the results, it's probably going to be neji/saku cheers

Chapi 12 = The Battle

The got through easily and got to the room she was in when ...

Haiaku stopped them

"Sorry but I can't let you in there, or allow you to go freely around our base" haiaku said

"And who's going to stop us" Naruto said, he was starting to get angry again, sakura was right there, and he couldn't get to her.

"Me" he said with a grin, and prepared a fighting stance.

Neji needed to get in there now, so he walked over to Naruto, and told him the plan.

They were both going to charge at him, then Naruto would attack with kage bunshin no jutsu, and neji would quickly create a clone of himself and slip in the room.

Naruto was a little upset because he wanted to be the one to charge in there and save sakura from that bastard, but agreed anyway.

They charged together at hiaiku, and went with the plan. With all the naruto's popping up neji quickly slipped into the room.

Of course the room wasn't sound proof, so sakura and Sasuke heard the ruckus outside and stopped talking to see what was going to happen.

When neji opened the door, he found sakura on her knees with a tear stained face, and Sasuke looking over her.

"Uchiha" he said with disgust

"Hyuuga" he said back just as worse.

The started to glare at each other, and then prepared a battle stance.

Sakura knowing that she was sitting in the middle of a battle field got up and fled to the bed, in the corner of the room.

Sakura had always known that there was a sensei to stop these to from battling, but now there wasn't, and she was hoping for neji to win this time as well.

----------Back to Naruto

"Heh your going down, anyone who works for Orochimaru, should pay the price" naruto's clone's all said together.

"You really don't get it do you" haiaku said,

"What is there to get" (Naruto)

"Everything, the fact that you're not going to win, the fact that your mission will not be a success, the list goes on"

Naruto was getting fed up with this guy, even though it really was his first time meeting him, he charged in with Kunai's everywhere, haiaku had no problem dodging a popping his clone's, but Naruto just made more.

Then something surprised Naruto; haiaku was now in front of him forming a jutsu.

"Kaze no arashi no jutsu" (wind's tempest) all of a sudden everything around him was being blown up, almost all the clones where gone and there was over 500. The real Naruto was blown back and was pretty beat up.

"I told you, that you couldn't win" he was about to turn of the lights for Naruto, but a clone, threw a kunai and hit him just in time. He quickly turned around, giving Naruto enough time to disappear and start to do Rasengan, it didn't take long for haiaku to figure out what Naruto was doing but by the time he had turned around, Naruto was charging into him.

------------Back to sakura

She knew it wasn't safe to be on a small bed in a small room with too guy's that where probably going to battle it out to the end, but what else could she do, she heard the battle going on outside with Naruto, she was stuck.

They both activated the bloodline skills Sharingan, and Byakugan. They started of simple with kunai's and Shuriken's, but then they blasted a whole in the wall and took their fight outside to do jutsu's, they did this because they didn't want to hurt sakura.

Sakura then saw Hinata, and was going to go make a break for it, before the battle really started, she got up off the bed and made her way to the hole, she quickly started to jump around and through, but right before she got to Hinata, Sasuke appeared in front of her, Neji was getting angry what was Uchiha doing?

"Go back inside sakura" he said with a demanding voice

"No" she said simply

"As long as your on Orochimaru's base your still our hostage" he said

"Well then I'll just have to get off the base won't I" she said with a smile

He shook his head, and did this weird jutsu; all of a sudden she was back in the room.

"This fight is between us Uchiha leave sakura out of this to do as she pleases" (neji)

"Sorry Hyuuga but I can't do that" (Sasuke)

By this time, Sasuke didn't know what to do, to get sakura back, but he had to do it.

Then it clicked

"Sakura I.. I .....
