Chapter 4: Love's Rain
(Team 1)
Kiba slowly opened his eyes and looked around the first thing he noticed was Sakura building a fire and Gaara missing.
"So where did Gaara go?" Kiba asked.
"Oh your awake, Gaara went to go find food the rains still coming down so we have to stay here" Sakura answered," Would you mine helping me make holes in the dirt to store food in?".
"Sure",Kiba answered going to the back of the cave and he and Akamiraru started to dig.
After a while Gaara came back with a dead dear he set it on the ground.
"Kiba are you and Akamiraru done?" Sakura asked examining the dear.
"Ya do you want help skinning it and cooking it?", Kiba asked.
"You know how?"
"Duh, I am from th Izumarki clan after all plus I am smarter than you!"
"Nuhun"
"Yahun"
"Nuhun"
"Yahun"
"Nuhun"
"Yahun"
"Nuhun"
"Shut up you two Sakura is smarter and Kiba is better at survival skills happy?" Gaara said.
"No" they said at the same time. But when Gaara's sand surrounded them they didn't push it. Soon the meat was done and they eat when they were done Sakura said" lets play a game".
"What game?" Kiba asked.
"Would you rather? Its when you ask some one if they were the last person on the earth who would they like with them and the you suggest 2 people. And sense its only the 3 of us no one else will know so you have to tell the truth, Okay?" Sakura explained.
"Okay" Kiba agreed.
"Gaara?"Sakura asked.
"Fine"
"Okay I'll go first! Gaara would you rather be stuck with Ino the other blond girl or your sister?"
"Ino because I would have fresh meat to torment, Kiba Temari or Hinata?"
"Hinata, Sakura Neji or Lee?"
"Lee because he may annoy me he will at least talk to me, Gaara Me or Ino?"
"You, you aren't as scared of me it would be a challenge to scare you, Kiba Tenten or Ino?"
"TenTen she's not as bossy as Ino, Sakura Sasuke or Chouji?"
"Sasuke Chouji eats too much, Gaara TenTen of Ino?"
"TenTen she quieter, Kiba Hinata or Tenten?"
"Hinata she's nicer, Sakura Shino or Kankuro?"
"Shino he doesn't wear make-up" She giggled" Gaara Sasuke or Naruto?"
"Naruto he excepts me and is a good opponent, Kiba Chouji or Sakura?"
"Sakura she's a girl"Sakura giggle at Kiba's outraged face" Sakura Ino or Sasuke?"
"Sasuke he's a guy, Ga-"Sakura started to say bur a large clap of thunder cut her off. But it didn't cut off her scream as she dogged a attack from out side the cave, Gaara and Kiba were already battling 2 other ninjas that had invaded the cave.
"What do you want!" Sakura screamed dogging a blow to the head.
"You Haruno Sakura!" The ninja answered.
"Why me!"
"..."
"And as long as you resist your friends get hurt" one said looking at Kiba who clutched his arm to try to stop the blood from falling.
'If they get hurt because I'm here then I have to leave' Sakura thought. As soon as she saw an opening in the ninjas attacks she ran but made sure they fallowed so Gaara and Kiba would be okay. Finally she lost them by going behind a waterfall. 'I hope the others left the cave and are okay' she thought. As she drifted off to sleep her last thought was 'someone please help me'.
With Kiba and Gaara
"I hope she's okay but for now we have to get out of here and find help" Kiba said. Gaara nodded in agreement. As they took of in to the rain. To were Sakura had originally said to get to the village.
Naruto and Hinata
"Uuuhh what happe-ouch?" Hinata moaned as she tried to stand up but couldn't due to the pain. Naruto impatiently pushed her back down.
"Don't try to get up your side is hurt" Naruto said.
"Did you take care of me?" Hinata asked trying not to get her hopes up that her crush saved her.
"Yes, and.."
"And what?" Hinata asked curious now.
"I want to tell you I think I love you", He said. She thought she was going to die right there. "It's okay if you don't feel the same way I understand I ju-"But before Naruto could get any farther Hinata summoned all the courage she had and pulled him into a kiss. Naruto put his arms around her waist as she put her arms around his neck and deepened the kiss. When they finally pulled away Naruto smiled and said "I take it you like me too". Hinata blushed bright red at that comment. "So do you want to go out?" Naruto asked.
Hinata blushed and said "yes".
"The storms let up a bit lets go see if we can find Lee." Naruto suggested then he turned around and crouched in front of her "get on I'll carry you there". Hinata slowly crawl-climbed on to his back and they were off.
After a couple of minutes of looking around they saw too shapes running toward they. "Hey isn't that Gaara and Kiba?" Nnaruto asked. "I think that is but where Sakura?" Hinata wondered out loud. Naruto ran over too them. "'GAARA, KIBA, GAARA, KIBA OVER HERE!" Naruto screamed while Hinata covered her poor ears while trying to hold on for dear life. Gaara and Kiba rushed over. "Where's Sakura?" Hinata asked. "Some ninjas attacked us and were after her so took off to give us time to get away." Kiba answered.
"WHAT!"
Hours Before with Lee and Team 4
"What happened to the rest of your team Lee? Temari asked.
"We ran into some rain and looked for some shelter I found one so me and Naruto wait and looked for Hinata when she didn't come by so Naruto went to search for her and never came back I'm worried that something happened to them! I hope there youth will prevail!". Lee explained.
"WHAT!" Neji screamed" my uncle going to kill me I'm supposed to watch over her!"
"Hey there's a cave we can stay there" a voice said from out side the cave in the rain. Sasuke with TenTen on his back and Shikamaru ahead of him appeared at the mouth of the cave.
"TenTen!" Neji and Lee examined rushing over to her.
"What happened!" Lee asked.
"We were attacked by some ninjas. We don't know what they wanted, they just attacked" Sasuke said.
"Will TenTen be okay?" Lee asked Temari who was examining TenTen.
"Well I'm no medical-nin but I think she should be fine with a little rest" Temari answered.
"THE POWER OF YOUTH WILL PREVAIL!" Lee shouted before getting punch by Neji.
"She said rest not disruption" Neji said.
"Umm I don't think he can hear you. I think you knocked him out cold!" Temari said looking at Lee.
"Who get first watch?" Sasuke asked.
"Not me"
"Not me"
"Not me"
"Not me"
"That leaves Choujii"
"What?" Chouji asked.
"Your on look out duty"
"Why me?"
"Cause you didn't pay attention and say not me so your stuck with it"
"But-"
"No buts G'night"
"Night"
"Troublesome"
"Night"
"This sucks" Chouji complained but kept watch anyway while the other slept.
Hours Later Back To Naruto Hinata Gaara And Kiba
"WHAT!"
"Did you try to find her?" Hinata asked really anxious.
"No we thought it would be best if we got help first" Gaara said.
"Oh we better find some one or we might be in big trouble!" Hinata said.
"There is good news in all of this though" Naruto said.
"What's that" Kiba asked.
"HINATAS MY GIRLFRIEND!" Naruto yelled "and I got a kiss". He started to giggle like a little girl.
"Dude you just giggled like a little girl" Kiba said.
"No!"
"Yes"
"No"
"Yes"
"Did you really kiss him" Gaara asked Hinata while the other two argued. Hinata just blushed and nodded.
"NO"
"YES WE HEARD YOU!"
"You did?" they fell down anime style and sweat-dropped.
"YES!" Kiba yelled.
"Oh, okay" (add another sweatdrop).
"Lets go!" Naruto and Kiba yelled. Taking off Gaara fallowed and sense Hinata was on Narutos back all she had to do was hold on for dear life.
"Hey I found someone" Kiba yelled.
"Chouji?" Hinata asked quietly. When they all caught up and stopped.
"HEY WAKE UP!" Kiba yelled.
What's going on out the a voice from the cave said.
"Aaaaahhhhhh! The Caves A Live!" Naruto started screaming.
"Shut up dope" Sasuke said sticking his head out.
"You shut up Sasuke-teme"
"Dope"
"Bastard"
"Dead last"
"Jerk"
"Loser"
"Chicken hair"
"Stupid"
"SHUT UP!" Temari yelled.
"Hinata what happened?" Neji asked " and why are you being carried by 'him'".
"I was hurt and its not a crime to be carried by your boyfriend" Hinata said in a huff.
"WHAT! HE YOUR BOYFRIEND!" Neji screamed.
"Yes" Naruto said giving Hinata a kiss on the cheek.
"When did this happen?" Temari asked.
"Have you kissed him on the lips yet?" Tenten asked.
"It happened when he saved my life and going bright red we have kissed on the lips" Hinata answered.
"Where my pink haired angel?" Lee asked turning to Gaara and Kiba.
"Some ninjas attacked us and were after her so took off to give us time to get away." Kiba answered looking at the ground.
"WHAT! My angel is all alone! I hope the power of her flaming youth saves her!" Lee yelled.
"What!" Sasuke yelled, "We were attacked by some ninjas too. Do you know why they wanted her? What kind of ninjas were they?"
"No they only said they wanted her. They were sound ninjas" Gaara answered.
"They were?" Kiba asked "I didn't know that".
"How did you not know that?" Gaara said deadpan.
"I was bleeding and fighting for my life. Sorry!" Kiba retorted.
"The ones we were attacked by were sound ninjas too." Shikamaru said" This is so troublesome"
"We should get to the village and get the teachers help." Neji said.
snap Everyone turn and got ready to fight. The noise had came from and they heard voices.
"Were lost you stupid make-up wearing ass! You got us lost" Inos shrilled voice was heard.
"Shut up you whore! No one cares what you think!" Kankuros voice retorted.
