Chapter 12

like a kiss and a kiss

Ino laid on the floor, blood running down the side of her mouth, she watched as Sasuke performed a few hand seals attack the black clothed man. She pushed herself off the ground only to get pushed down again, she stood still for a moment then a flash stabbed him in the ankle with her kunai. He let out a yelp and disappeared. Sasuke was kicking and slashing at the man. Ino stood up and attacked the man from behind. As she attacked the third man came behind Ino about to attack her, "Ino MOVE!"

Ino tossed her body to the side as Sasuke flipped over kicking the man in the face, he soon was gone. Ino took in a deep breath and went toward to attack the last final man. As she ran toward him, kunai in hand he pulled out a smoke ball. 'Shit.' she tossed the kunai, as she tossed the kunai the man threw the smoke ball. Sasuke turned and watched as the went threw the smoke ball and shoved it self into the mans chest, soon after he was gone. Ino and Sasuke both stood tall. Breathing heavy.

Sasuke shoved his kunai into his pocket as Ino whipped away the blood. 'I cant believe....why did i let my guard down...' Sasuke motioned Ino to follow him as he spotted the stone , the place the man laid before disappearing. Ino sighed, 'He must think I'm a weakling...he hasn't said anything to me....' she paced back toward the scroll. Lifting it up it seemed to get a tad smaller. She pulled it over her shoulders, walking with her head down toward Sasuke. 'Why was I that stupid to get grabbed. A shinobi's supposed to be on guard all the time. ah this sucks...'

Sasuke turned around to face the blond, he raised his eye brow, 'Whys she look so down? Not lie I care or anything.' he bent down to pick up the stone when he noticed Ino was about to step on the smoke bomb, "INO STOP!" not thinking she looked up and stepped on it. It made a big popping sound and everything went purple. Ino looked around trying to find her way out, 'Its thick. This isn't normal...whats going on.' Sasuke was moving around, he had his hands in front of his self squinting, "Ino? Ino, be careful!"

'Oh great now he thinks....' she stopping in her thoughts, the smoke started to fill her head, she could feel her head getting lighter, 'what....i feel light headed...like....i'm...' her knees started to get weak and her eyes started to close, she wobbled around a bit. Sasuke got down on all fours and tried to see if he could spot her feet or any sigh of her. 'Shit...where is she....shes quiet...' "Ino. Answer me!" 'Dammit.' he searched more only to be bumping into trees and tones of kunai's.

"S...Sasuke..." she couldn't talk right, everything came out soft. She feel onto the floor holding her head. Soon after she passed out...

...---...

"Eh?! Who was catching fish for Ino!?" Naruto cringed as the pink haired yelled. "What are you talking about!? Sasuke wouldn't do any favors for Ino-pig!" Hinata slowly picked up the stone that she had got them this time. Naruto and Sakura were to busy arguing to notice it though. "Sakura chan, don't be all prissy about it." Naruto rubbed the back of his neck, "Their on a team together after all." Sakura seemed to dawn of Naruto because he felt really small at this time.

"What do you mean by that!?" Naruto slumped down, at this point he wanted to go crawl under a rock. "Nothing Sakura chan..." Hinata sighed, "S-Sakura chan, how about we go and collect the next s-stone." Sakura fastly turned to Hinata making he jump, she sighed, "Well lets get something to ea first. Its already lunch time." Sakura walked in front of Hinata and Naruto. Hinata kept taking glances at Naruto. She was going to attempt a conversation, "N-Naru-" "Hinata chan!" Hinata looked forward to see Sakura calling her.

She sighed slightly then smiled, "Hm?" she motioned Hinata to join her up front. She slowly walked toward her as she linked arms with her. Hinata slightly smiled, 'Shes up to somthing...' Sakura smiled and kept walking on toward the lake. "Hinata chan, does Ino talk alot about Sasuke?" Hinata kind of looked down, she didn't know weather to answer her or not. "Hm? Hinata?" Hinata slowly shook her head, 'Inner Sakura: LIES! SHES IN LOVE WITH HIM!' Sakura bared a smile, "At all?"

'Inner self: There has to be something!' Hinata tapped her fingers together, "She said....she she was going to give up on Sasuke kun." Sakura got wide eyed "What?!" she thought for a moment as Hinata nodded, 'no wonder she hasn't clung herself to him....no woned....so I don't have to worry about her talking Sasuke away!' she mentally kicked her self making her jump. Hinata kind of smiled but looked toward the side. 'I wonder if i did the right thing...'

Naruto walked around toward Hinata his hand behind his head, 'I should tell Hinata chan sorry for....arguing and thank her about the stone...' he tapped her shoulder, Hinata turned around, looking up, she was pretty close to him as she fully turned around both Hinata and Naruto's lips touched. They stayed like that...she felt her heart skipping beats, her legs get wobbly, she could feel the nervousness getting the better of her. Naruto's eyes got wide, he didn't know weather to move her or not.

Hinata slowly started to pull away, they stared in each others eyes, Naruto blushed a deep red, he had never been kissed before or...what could he call it? A accident? A kiss was a accident? He stood there for a moment this time Hinata turned a bright red as she saw him slowly leaning toward her but they were interrupted by a screaming Sakura.

"EH! Look by the water!!! Is Sasuke kun KISSING INO!" Hinata and Naruto ran toward her direction, mouths dropped, "Ehhhh!?" 'Inner Sakura: Whys he bent over her like that! His face is in her face! WHATS THIS WORLD COMING TO!!! SASUKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!' her insides screamed.
