Chapter 13: To take your mind of sadness
"Morning already, huh?" Naruto thought as the first rays of sunlight shined upon his eyes. He rolled over in his bed and saw Hinata lying next to him. Naruto shot up from his bed and then fell back down.
"Oh yeah that's right...She was staying here for the night since it was closer then the Hyuuga mansion...Nothing to worry about...She is just wearing that t-shirt of mine because I tripped and spilled my drink on her when we got back here..." Naruto thought as he took of his nightcap and got out of bed. As he was in the bathroom and threw some water in his face, someone knocked at the front door.
"Coming." Naruto said and quickly walked to the front door. As he opened the door he was immediately caught in a thight hug.
"Naruto-kun!" Ayame said cheerful.
"A-Ayame-chan? What are you doing here so early?" Naruto asked as he whiped the remaining sleep out of his eyes.
"I missed you a lot yesterday so I got up extra early to come visit you before going to the ramenshop." Ayame said smiling as she let go of Naruto and walked into his living room.
"Wow looks like you didn't have an after party here though...It still looks very clean." Ayame said and then noticed Hinata lying in Naruto's bed with a T-shirt of his on.
"Naruto..." Ayame said in a soft tone.
"Huh?... What's wrong?" Naurto said, still to sleepy to have his brains work at all. Ayame turned around and ran past him trough the doorway. Naruto quickly ran after her as it finally hit him what she was thinking.
"Ayame wait! She just slept here because she couldn't go home! We didn't do anything!" Naruto yelled after her, but Ayame kept on running and Naruto could see her tears fall down on the ground as she turned around the corner. Naruto's eyes saddened when he realised it was no use to try and catch up with her. He turned around and headed back inside, where he found Hinata in the hallway.
"What's wrong Naruto-kun...You seem unhappy...Did something happen to your friend?" Hinata asked as she looked worried at him.
"No...I just hurt her feelings...because she meant more to me then just a friend..." Naruto said as he walked past Hinata, not looking into her eyes.
"...But Naruto-kun what about..." Hinata said with a trembling voice.
"Hinata...I really like you too...However I didn't want to hurt Ayame's feelings...And it's only because I couldn't bring you home..." Naruto said.
"Naruto-kun...I'm sorry..." Hinata said.
"Please go home now...I need some peace and quiet to think..." Naruto said and with that Hinata slowly left, giving him one more look before leaving his home. Naruto dropped down on the floor when the door closed and started thinking what to do. What felt like ages to Naruto was actually about one hour and he was awakened from his thinking by a knock on his door. Naruto slowly stood up and walked towards the door. As he opened it, Naruto was surprised to see Shikamaru.
"Shikamaru?" Naruto asked.
"Yo Naruto, Looks like you already are up. Come on get a move on we're needed at the Hokage's office." Shikamaru stated.
"Why do we need to go there?" Naruto asked.
"Something troublesome happened...But it's way to troublesome to explain it to you so I'll let Godaime do that." Shikamaru said. Naruto quickly grabbed his shinobi equipment and ran out with Shikamaru.
"Something happened huh...and Shikamaru and I are getting the mission? What's going on here...At least the mission will hopefully take my minds of things at hand..." Naruto thought as he and Shikamaru raced towards the Hokage's building.
"What's wrong, Tsunade-obachan!" Naruto asked as he entered her office.
"Hold up Naruto, I'll explain it to you so calm down." Tsunade said.
"This morning we found a note at our door step...It was from Uchiha Sasuke." Tsunade said.
"Sasuke! Did something happen to him!" Naruto asked.
"Calm down I'll tell you what he wrote." Tsunade said waving her hand at Naruto as she took out the note and started to read it out loud.
"You all can go censored yourself in your censored and censored censored. You bunch of censored mothercensored can censored my censored and call me a whining little censored censored. I've had it with your stupid censored romantic village only aiming on censored and loving the world. I've had it with all the little censored attention censored censored that go and censored that censored of a Naruto, who took all of those censored censored away from me. I'm off to Orochimaru's village to obtain my revenge and censored get some sweet censored censored from better censored then here. If you plan on following me I'll censored censored you for real. Much Love and Kisses, Uchiha Sasuke. P.S: Lee, I also censored that censored pink haired censored censored censored censored censored censored of yours." Tsunade said. Naruto and Shikamaru blinked.
"Wow...I actually understand why Shikamaru found it too troublesome to explain...The word censored comes more often in it then I eat ramen a day..." Naruto said.
"Actually I didn't know the contents of the note..." Shikamaru said.
"Oh..." Naruto replied and then both of them looked back at Tsunade.
"Well as you both can see, our Uchiha Sasuke-kun has some hormone problems and we need to drag him back here since giving him up to Orochimaru would be a bad idea...You two have 30 minutes to gather as many Genin as you can that might be handy on this mission." Tsunade said.
"Hold on one second...This Orochimaru guy must have send his lackey's after Sasuke to protect him or something...Shouldn't this be a mission for Jounin people or atleast more experienced chunins?" Shikamaru said.
"Well...This is a A-rank mission...And the reason why chuunin and jounin can't go is because they're all out on a mission or just can't do it due to certain reasons." Tsunade said blushing at the last part and fidgeting with her fingers.
"Now hurry before Sasuke gets too far away." Tsunade said and Shikamaru and Naruto instantly left.
"You sure this guy is skilled?" Naruto asked a while later as they stood in front of a house.
"Trust me, he is strong. Oi, Chouji...Get out here." Shikamaru said knocking on the door.
"Looks like he ain't home..." Naruto stated.
"Oi, Naruto...Help me eat this bag of chips.." Shikamaru said.
"Huh..Wel...Okay.." Naruto said and started eating the chips. After a while, Shikamaru shook out the last one of out of the bag.
"Alright this is the last one..." Shikamaru said and was about to eat it when the door opened. A figure rushed outside andtook the chipbefore saying to Shikamaru and Naruto that they can't have the last one of his favourite snack.
"Wow...Chouji is pretty fast...You chose him because he could like capture Sasuke when he's about to eat the last thing of a meal?" Naruto asked.
"No, he's just strong at Taijutsu and I've been his team-mate for some time now. It makes him easier to deal with." Shikamaru said.
"What! That's the reason you asked him! In that case go ask Shino or something!" Naruto yelled.
"Shino is out on a mission with is dad." Kiba said as Akamaru uselessly tried to snatch the last chip away from Chouji.
"Kiba, You coming along for this mission too?" Naruto asked.
"You got that right...Right, Akamaru?" Kiba said and Akamaru barked in reply.
"I guess this is about enough people to bring right?" Shikamaru asked as they headed towards the gates of Konoha.
"No wait, let's ask one more person to come." Naruto said.
"Naruto, everyone...What are you doing here?" Neji asked as he opened the door at Tenten's place.
"Neji, we have a mission and we could use a fifth person." Naruto explained.
"Alright then let's do this. I'm quite energetic today..." Neji said nodding.
"I'll go to!" Tenten said cheerful as she appeared from behind Neji.
"Tenten...Normally I wouldn't mind but if this is the only people we're going with it might be dangerous for you...I don't want to get us both killed because either of us gets in trouble..." Neji said.
"But Neji..." Tenten said.
"Tenten! Please understand...I don't want to think about you getting hurt and you don't want to see me get hurt because I'm worried about you..." Neji replied.
"Neji...I don't want..." Tenten said with a sad look on her face.
"I'll come back to you, don't worry..." Neji said and kissed her. Just as they were about to deepen the kiss, Naruto intervined and started pushing Neji away.
"Alright come on that's enough...We are losing time here." Naruto said pushing Neji further away from Tenten. Meanwhile at the gates of Konoha, Sakura was trying to go trough the gates on her crutches.
"I must...get Sasuke-kun...to come back..." She said as tears rolled down over her cheeks.
"Sakura-san, please don't push yourself." Lee said who walked after her as quick as he could.
"But Lee-san...It's my..." Sakura said and started crying As Lee continued trying to comfort Sakura, Naruto and the others passed by.
"Sakura-chan? What's wrong? Why are you crying?" Naruto asked as he stopped.
"Naruto...It's because of me...that Sasuke-kun left...Please...Naruto...The only one who can bring him back...Naruto...is you..." Sakura said still crying.
"Sakura-chan...liked Sasuke a lot, right? And now Sakura-chan is in pain...A pain I know well." Naruto said.
"Naruto..." Sakura softly said.
"I will definately bring Sasuke back! It's a promise of a lifetime!" Naruto said and struck the nice-guy pose.
"Is it really ok for you to say such a thing?" Kiba asked smirking.
"I do not go back on my word!" Naruto replied.
"Anyway...We've lost some time...Let's hurry up and leave." Shikamaru suggested.
"Alright! Everyone follow me!" Naruto said and started to ran off.
"Oi, Naruto I'm still the squad leader you know..." Shikamaru said as he followed Naruto. The others followed his example and ran off as well.
"Naruto-kun went out with the nice-guy pose. Everything will go fine, for sure." Lee said as he struck the nice-guy pose and gently smiled at Sakura.
Meanwhile back in Hidden Sand, Jiraiya felt something burn in his pocket.
"What the...?" Jiraiya said and took out the crystal ball from his pocket.
"Yo Jiraiya, Long time no see." Tsunade said smiling.
"Tsunade...Have you come to rub it in that I missed your party last night?" Jiraiya asked annoyed.
"Well that would be nice..." Tsunade said still smiling, but her face turned serious after that "I need you to do some actual work...We have some trouble."
"Trouble? What is it?" Jiraiya asked.
"I'll explain that later...Go gather the kids from sand that participated in the previous Chuunin main exam...I believe their names were Temari,Kankurou and Sabaku no Gaara. After you gathered them head out back to Konoha and I'll contact you in an hour or two from now." Tsunade said and then disappeared from the crystal ball. Jiraiya sighed then walked off to the council of Hidden Sand. A while later Temari, Gaara and Kankurou were gathered in the counsel's room.
"So what's this all about jyan?" Kankurou asked.
"Godaime Hokage-sama appearantly has need for you three...I do not know the specific details about what kind of mission it is." Jiraiya informed them.
"Godaime Hokage? So we're going to Konoha?" Temari asked.
"Like I said I'm just going to need to bring you to Konoha and in a hour or so, Godaime will contact me with the mission details." Jiraiya stated. Gaara raised his hand and Temari and Kankurou looked shocked and confused at their little brother.
"Before we leave can I go and arrange something...It won't take long." Gaara said.
"Er...I guess that's fine with me...Just hurry up." Jiraiya said and Gaara disappeared. Five minutes later he came back and stated he was ready to leave.
"Alright then! everyone let's go outside!" Jiraiya said cheerful. Once outside Jiraiya summoned his fastest and best travelling frog and the four of them climbed on his back.
"So what exactly did you need to arrange, Gaara?" Temari asked after they travelled about half an hour.
"Just some things..." Gaara replied.
"...I asked you to say what you exactly did..." Temari said under her breath. Gaara looked at her from the corner of his eyes.
"You'll find out yourself in due time." Gaara said. Temari stared at him for a couple of seconds before shrugging and grabbing a magazine to read out of he bag. An hour later, Jiraiya felt the crystal ball heat up again.
"Yo Tsunade. Tell us the mission." Jiraiya said.
"Sorry I"m a bit late Jiraiya...I needed to handle some...things." Tsunade said.
"It's ok...It will be a while before we reach Konoha anyway." Jiraiya said.
"Exactly when do you think you'll arive?" Tsunade asked.
"Probably...After midnight..." Jiraiya said after gaving it some thought.
"I see...Then here is the mission for the three sand-nin." Tsunade said and everyone gathered around the crystall ball.
"Early this morning, Uchiha Sasuke left for Hidden Sound to Orochimaru...He's most likely accompanied by some of Orochimaru's people. This morning Nara Shikamaru, Uzumaki Naruto, Inuzuka Kiba, Akimichi Chouji and Hyuuga Neji were send to bring Sasuke back. You three are to be their reinforcements and help them out bringing Sasuke-kun back." Tsunade stated.
"Understood." All three of the Sand-nin said.
"Leave immediately after arriving in Konoha...You have a lot of distance to cover up." Tsunade said.
"Then shouldn't I go with them?" Jiraiya asked.
"You'll return to Konoha...I do not think it will be that hard for 8 people to get Sasuke back...Besides I need you here for other things." Tsunade said.
"Alright then...See you around midnight then." Jiraiya said and Tsunade disappeared from the ball.
"Sounds like we have a not so interesting mission..." Kankurou complained.
"Shut up, Kankurou...It's not like we can change anything about it so just stop complaining." Temari said.
"I"m actually glad we're going to Konoha again..." Gaara stated. Temari and Kankurou just stared at their little brother again.
"Like why are you glad about that, Gaara?" Temari asked.
"...They have great cable TV." Gaara said and both his siblings fell over.
"That's the only reason!" They both yelled.
"...Sort of. Anyway that reminds me." Gaara said and took something out of his pocket.
"Since when do you have a portable tv?" Temari asked as she crawled towards Gaara who turned the portable tv on.
"The nice man at electronics shop gave it to me...At first he was asking a sandy assed rediculas price for it...Then all of a sudden when I let my sand hang in disappointment, he gave it to me." Gaara said.
"...That's like so unfair." Temari said and sat down with crossed arms.
"Oh boy here we go again..." Kankurou sighed and started cleaning his puppets.
"You always get things for free! Only because you let your sand fall onto someone's foot and they are scared of what that sand might do to them." Temari stated. Gaara silently began to watch his anime's as he turned on the anime channel.
"If I want something I ALWAYS need to work my ass of just to get it! What the heck do YOU use your money for anyway!" Temari yelled. Gaara looked up from his tv and made his sand grab something out of his gourd.
"I cosplay." Gaara stated as he showed Temari a picture.
"You wha...?" Temari said and looked at the picture of Gaara in a black robe and with a huge sword on his back.
"Either that or I give it to you since you always lack money to go out and then bother me..." Gaara said.
"Life's so unfair...I also want free stuff...and I want to cosplay too." Temari sobbed as tears flowed down her cheeks in disappointment.
"If you actually started getting a lot more into Anime then maybe I'd buy you one..." Gaara said.
"Really?" Temari asked.
"Yeah, yeah..." Gaara said and continued watching his anime.
"Thank you!" Temari said and started to hug Gaara and give him kisses all over his face.
"Temari! Let go off me! I need to watch that new episode! Please!" Gaara yelled. Just then he couldn't hold his portable tv anymore and started falling of the frogs back.
"Ah! My portable tv!" Gaara yelled, broke out of Temari's hold and quickly chased after his tv.
"Noooooo!" Gaara yelled as the portable tv fell of the frogs behind and landed somewhere in the forest below the frog.
"My...tv...My...anime...all gone..." Gaara said as tears fell like waterfalls over his face and looked at Temari.
"Ehm...er...Ano...Gaara...You can use mine...No need to be upset...Mine has a anime channel as well." Temari said scared of what Gaara might do to her.
"Then what the hell are you waiting for!" Gaara yelled. Temari quickly grabbed her portable tv out of her bag and threw it at Gaara. All of a sudden, Gaara sneezed as the portable tv approached.
"Oh shit!" Gaara and Temari both said as Temari's portable tv headed towards the same fate as Gaara's. Luckily Gaara could react on time and made his sand catch the tv.
"Now that was close..." Temari said as she let out a sigh of relief. Gaara walked a bit more up onto the frog and then started to make a shelter of sand.
"Oi Gaara! Wait for me!" Temari said and jumped down next to him.
"What are you going to do here?" Gaara asked.
"Watch your anime's with you." Temari stated.
"...If you get too close to my likings your out." Gaara stated and then turned on the tv.
"Woohoo! A Bleach marathon!" Gaara said cheerful and Temari stared at him like crazy.
"What?" He asked.
"Nothing...Nothing at all." Temari said and started to look at tv screen with Gaara Hours later, around midnight, Jiraiya woke Temari and Gaara up from their slumber.
"Yo, We're almost at Konoha...Wake up you two." Jiraiya said.
"I'm not sleeping I was just resting my eyes." Gaara said as he opened his eyes.
"Oh yeah you don't sleep...Then wakeyour sisterup." Jiraiya said and left again. A while later they arrived at Konoha and Jiraiya stood in front of the sand siblings.
"I'll take care of your luggage...You have a lot of catching up to do with them so hurry and leave." Jiraiya said. The three of them nodded and then Jiraiya's frog popped off. Gaara, Kankurou and Temari ran off in the direction where they needed to go and Jiraiya walked trough the gates of Konoha.
"Let's hope this doesn't turn out bad...I heard there were sightings of the Akatsuki in the Country of Fire...Naruto, do not let them catch you." Jiraiya said as he walked back to his hermit shelter.
A/N: So how did ya like that ? Hopefully the small changes that I made from the Anime to this wasn't too bad...'. Next chap we'll have Jiraiya in a random situation more or less...the TRUE reason why Sasuke ran away XD...And for those of you who love it: ShikaTem fluff stuff ! Look forward to it while I continue to write hehehe...R&R please!
