Chapter 6

Sasuke's Betrayal

"…Sasuke!"

Kakashi sounded both confused and relieved. "You scared me there for a second Sasuke." Sasuke didn't say a word, he had an intense look in his eyes, more intense than usual. "Sasuke, what's wrong?" Kakashi expected Sasuke to at least talk.

Kakashi then turned as he heard Zaroff laughing. "Kakashi, are you losing your touch with your students?" Zaroff mocked. Kakashi looked at him seriously and said. "I'll end this now." Zaroff just smiled. "Are you sure Sasuke would allow you to kill one of his own clan." Kakashi then stood still, eyes widen. "Oh no." Kakashi turned to Sasuke who had a kunai at hand.

"Sasuke, I don't know if his Uchiha or not, but his a killer. He must not be allowed to live."

Finally, Sasuke spoke. "But he is an Uchiha. The only Uchiha who deserves to die is Itachi. No one else."

"Sasuke, listen to yourself, he has killed many. If I let him live he could kill everyone in the village. Naruto and Sakura would be killed."

Sasuke's eyes glared at Kakashi and said. "I don't care. They mean nothing to me."

"Liar." Kakashi said firmly. Sasuke was a bit shocked to hear this. "If you really didn't care, then why did you save Naruto's life when you were fighting Haku. You gave your life for him. And when those ninja that worked for Zabuza attacked you saved him and stood in front of Sakura to save her."

Sasuke frowned and said. "Caring for others is a weakness. One that I used to have. And if the only way to overcome it is to destroy Naruto and Sakura. Then so be it."

"Sasuke!"

"Your no longer my sensei, Kakashi."

Kakashi looked back at Zaroff and said "You." Zaroff just laughed. 'He had planned this all along. I have to take him out fast, before…' Kakashi couldn't bare even to think about it. Kakashi grabbed a kunai that was on the ground and in a flash was next to Zaroff. Kakashi swung his kunai and reached half an inch next to Zaroff's neck. But then he felt a kunai hit him with incredible force. He was very low in chakra. There was nothing he could do. "Sa… suke." With that Kakashi fell.

Sasuke was still trembling. "What… did I… just do?" Zaroff stood up, with one hand holding himself with the tree and said. "You did the right thing Sasuke. You are a true Uchiha." Sasuke walked up to Kakashi. He bent down next to the fallen Shinobi and touched his neck. "He's dead." Zaroff smiled and said. "Good work my boy. Now is time for face two of my plan."


Meanwhile Naruto had just left the ramen shop with Sakura. Hinata had left ahead since she was going to train with her family. Naruto was smiling, as usual, as Sakura just looked at him.

Flashback

"The most important thing in his life." "Huh?" "You." Sakura froze. "Me, what do you mean?" Hinata looked down. "I asked him if he had anymore dreams, even more important than becoming hokage, and he said he didn't have any dreams like that, but he did care about someone more than that dream. And that someone is you." Sakura couldn't even speak. 'Naruto said that. After the way I treat him.' In few moments Sakura found herself blushing. 'Why the heck am I blushing. It's just Naruto, just Naruto.' Sakura was freed from her confusing on her mind when Hinata said defeated. "I… I have no chance with him, I am no match to you in his eyes."

Flashback ends

'Does Naruto like me more than his dream, love.' Naruto looked at her and saw he confused look and he asked. "Something wrong Sakura-chan?" Sakura looked at him and for the first time saw and looked into his blue eyes. "Nothing Naruto-kun." Naruto nearly hit a bench as they walked when he heard Sakura add kun at the end of his name. "Since when, am I kun?" Sakura blushed. "More than you know."


Back with Zaroff and Sasuke, they had gotten to Zaroff's hideout. What a huge place. Zaroff took Sasuke to a chamber. "What you'll see here Sasuke, will be what makes you an Elite Shinobi." Sasuke looked as Zaroff opened it and inside where many ninjas. Elites. "I… don't understand." Sasuke was puzzled.

" You shall lead these ninja to the Village Hidden in the Leaves. There, you'll attack them and make believe your still on their side. Tell them that there will be a war. When the ones who will fight leave. Steal their secret scroll. Then you shall be an Elite Shinobi and a true Uchiha." "But I… what happens when they go out to war and there is no war?" Zaroff smiled.

"There will be a war, I'll make sure of that."


Naruto had just brought Sakura to her house. "Later Sakura-chan." Naruto was about to walk away when Sakura said. "Um… Naruto." "Yeah?" "Do you want to do something tomorrow? I mean, if your not doing anything important." Naruto smiled from ear to ear and said. "I'll stop everything for you Sakura-chan." Sakura just smiled. 'He did mean it.'

Suddenly aloud scream was heard. "WE HAVE BEEN INVADED!" Naruto and Sakura looked to were the shout came, and saw ninja falling everywhere. "It's raining Shinobi?" Sakura grabbed Naruto and pulled him inside her house. "Mom, mom where are you? She's not here." Naruto opened the door and said. "Stay here Sakura. I'll take care of this." Before Naruto could run out Sakura grabbed his arm. "We'll do it together."

All over the village ninja were attacking. Ino was just closing her shop and saw the ninja. "What the?" Ino grabbed a kunai and slashed a ninja who had attacked her. "Think you can catch me off guard that easily?" Ino jumped up and landed on the roof of her shop. The Shinobi also jumped up there. Ino attacked them and with ease took all three of them out. "Peace of cake." Suddenly one appeared behind her and attacked, but he fell off the roof with a shuriken on his head. Ino looked down and said. "I owe you one Shikamaru." Shikamaru just smiled. "Just one?"

In her training Hinata had also ran into a couple ninja, but with her White Eye, she was not caught off guard. Hinata fought the ninja, which were about ten of them. "Gentle fist." Hinata made her trademark jutzu and in a flash the ninja were out. "These are Shinobi, why are they attacking?"

All over the village the ninja were attacking. "Art of the Doppelganger!" About twenty ninja fell as twenty Narutos appeared. In a flash there was only one Naruto. "Got ya, suckers." Suddenly a flying ninja hit Naruto from the back. When Naruto turned the ninja was unconscious. Naruto looked to his left and saw Sakura fighting a few ninja and easily taking them out. "She's improving."

Ninja appeared everywhere. The village's elites had to fight as well as the teachers, such as Iruka, even Tsunade had to help alongside Jijaira. Rock Lee had to fight about fifty of them, alone, but a great Shinobi is always prepared. "Take your best shot guys." Rock Lee quickly took out the Shinobi. "Something's not right here."

Apparently the village had been freed from the ninja scum. Naruto punched the last one and knocked him out. "That's the last one." Suddenly three more fell, dead, near him. Naruto looked at Sakura, but she was a bit far to have thrown them. He looked up and smiled.

"Hey Sasuke."

Sasuke looked at him and said. "Uzumaki." 'Fool.'

Sakura looked at Sasuke and smiled. "Sasuke-kun."

From a far Zaroff watched. "Good work my apprentice, they won't know what hit them."


Kakashi's dead! Or is he? R&R.
