Chapter 5 - The Attack begins.

It'd been a couple of days since the unknown ninja's had came to the village, they were being watched closely by Jounin's all day round, unnoticed by the unknown enemy of course.

"I hope we get that damned signal soon, I'm feeling uncomfortable being in this village doing nothing." Daisuke muttered to one of his team-mates. Risa sighed, she was holding back the urge to attack without getting the signal, but she knew it'd be suicide if she did do it.

"Same, everyone's getting restless." She replied at last.

"I've seen some more of our ninja so the plan to attack can't be that far off."

"True. Where are the rest of our group?"

"I think Kenta, Kai and Setsuna went off to try and train with those allied ninja's to find out information about them."

"I see."

A ninja from their village dropped behind them, he was about to give them information about the attack status. Risa and Daisuke turned waiting for him to talk, Kakashi wasn't to far from them, and so listened in.

"Koroudo-sama has sent some of our ninja to attack Thunder village, I think that some of the ninja who're in Konoha have had to leave to go help back at their own village. We'll be getting a signal soon enough so just wait about a little longer."

"We got it." Daisuke said his smirk turning into such a hopeful twisted grin. Kakashi left his post and headed towards the Hokage's office straight away.

-At the training ground-

"Your village is under attack?" Sakura asked the brunette across from her. The group sat in a circle, they were having a break.

"Yeah, Arashi-Kage wanted a few of us to stay here just incase."

"There are only four of you…" Naruto said.

"Yep. As soon as they stop fighting at Thunder village they're bound to come straight here." Uka replied.

"So, how long do you reckon this war will last?" Mari asked a little bored.

"Who knows, we don't know anything about our enemy." Neji replied.

"I reckon since we have Sasuke, Mari, Gaara, Neji, Hinata, Mairiel, Dea, Uka and Yukai here, as well as I. The enemy won't last long!" Naruto said with a confident grin.

"Don't be to cocky Naruto." Shikamaru sighed while looking at the sky. Naruto stuck his tongue out at the other boy.

"We may as well assume the worse case scenario and do what we can." Neji said getting up and walking away to resume his training, Tenten and Lee closely followed him.

"Heh, he does have a point, let's get back to training shall we?" Sasuke muttered just enough so that they could hear him.

They were interrupted by a noise, a quite loud eerie noise coming from what seemed nowhere. It was the signal for the attack on Konoha. A noise near them caught their attention.

"Shit!" Sasuke swore barely dodging a kunai that was thrown at him.

"Sasuke-kun!" Sakura shouted to him, concerned and at the same time warning him of another few kunai.

"Keh, how troublesome." Shikamaru moaned as he began to get up.

"Hinata, think you can find the attackers?" Mari asked the timid but determined female next to her.

"Hai, Byakugan!" Hinata activated her byakugan and began searching for the attackers, spotting them within seconds she gave the direction in which the two Uchiha, Gaara, Sakura, Mairiel, Naruto and Shikamaru headed. Hinata had picked up sight of some other enemy ninja, which the rest could take care of easily.

"Hn, there's only three of these pathetic ninja." Sasuke spat with great disinterest.

"There maybe only three, but still, we shouldn't let our guards down, Sasuke." Mari replied.

"Crap they found us already. Kai, Setsuna give me some backup here!" Kenta called to his friends.

"Heh it's the guys from a few days ago!" Naruto said as he began to perform some hand seals.

"Kagebunshin no jutsu!" He called out, multiplying into a few replicas.

"Kai you're the stronger of us three take that blonde haired kid out along with that lazy looking guy, Setsuna you take out they two girls there and the red head. I'll deal with these Uchiha kids."

"Lazy looking guy?" Shikamaru asked quirking a brow, just who was this guy referring to exactly?

The enemy had gone for their designated targets, not holding anything back.

Kai took out a kunai, one for each hand and was about to go for the kill until he realised that he couldn't move that is. While he'd been watching the clones of Naruto he'd temporarily lost concentration on the other boy, Shikamaru had used his Ninpou, Kagamane no jutsu on the guy.

"The stronger of the three eh? If that's the case then which one of you is the smarter one?" Shikamaru grinned now making this enemy of his do some silly things while waiting for Naruto to lay in some attacks.

"Naruto!"

"On it," Naruto replied now standing behind a mass of his clones with one other. The two Naruto began to perform the Rasengan attack while the other clones attacked the enemy. They all disappeared when Naruto had finally finished making the ball of chakra. He raced towards Kai; the ball seemed to be getting just that little bigger every time he came closer.

"Hurry it up Naruto; I can't hold this sod for much longer!"

"RASENGAN!" Naruto yelled throwing his hand forward onto the enemy; Shikamaru pushed his shadow technique on a little further. The enemy gave a choked cry of pain before collapsing to the floor, they'd killed him. Naruto looked to Shikamaru and Shikamaru looked back, their expressions almost the same.

"I thought that the leader said he was 'strong' not pathetically weak?" Naruto questioned him.

"I heard him to, if this is his real strength I think the other two will be weaker…and if that's the case I hate to see how weak this enemy country is."

"Heh, in any case I think we should go see how the others are doing." Naruto said. The two boys headed off in the direction that the other part of their group went.

"Let me handle this idiot." Gaara said to the girls.

"But Gaara-sama we don't want you to use up all of your chakra and strength." Sakura protested.

"Let us help!" Mairiel pleaded along with Sakura. "We don't have any idea when the others will get back; we can't waste anything that we have."

"Alright." Gaara said, giving in. The girls smiled a little and then turned their attention on the enemy.

"I'll let you two start this weak guy off and I'll finish it." Gaara said to them as he hardened his glare upon the enemy. Setsuna returned his glare and waited for the girls to attack, he'd always go by the rule 'don't hit a lady until they hit you first.'

Sakura took out some kunai and some shuriken and began attacking the enemy. Mairiel was busy performing a series of hand seals.

"Sakura, I need to get in close to attack this guy, can you watch my back for me?"

"Sure."

"Thanks."

Mairiel done the last two hand seals she needed to perform this jutsu she was about to use and took a run at the enemy. Setsuna who was dodging the continuous attacks of metal kept his eye on the girl coming at him. What was she up to…wait, where did she go? She was there a minute ago, she was now…behind him? He turned his head forgetting about the kunai and shuriken for a minute to concentrate on the girl. A few of the weapons of had struck his side and shoulder; he winced a little in pain.

"Mahi no jutsu!" Mairiel called out the attack after placing a hand on a random part of the enemies upper body, he'd keeled over onto the ground on his hands and knees unable to move. Mairiel retreated back to Sakura and Gaara.

"Nice one." Sakura complimented.

"Hehe, ne Gaara."

"Right…" Gaara stepped forward, the sand beginning to flow out of the gourd and towards the now paralysed enemy. It began to form around the body of Setsuna, who still couldn't move, Gaara's hand was outstretched towards the older ninja. Sakura knew what the following attack would do to the enemy ninja, whereas Mairiel was wondering what attack he was about to use.

"Sabaku Sousou!" Gaara's outstretched hand balled into a tight fist after the attack had been called out. There was a sound of cracking and crunching that made Sakura's insides squirm a little. Their opponent had been killed to, it was in a way relieving but they all agreed that this enemy couldn't have been that powerful. They to now headed off to look for the others.

Kenta was having a tough time fending off the two Uchiha kids; he didn't think they'd be this strong. He was holding in there with a mass of cuts and bruises on his body.

"So this is the power of you Uchiha." He said with a grin.

"Hn. If you're all as weak as this, then why did your village attack Konoha, you don't stand a chance." Sasuke asked.

"We're not weak at all," Kenta replied.

"Are you sure about that?" Mari questioned in disbelief

"Indeed I am, little girl." He replied to her, Mari's eyes narrowed, she hated being called little. Sasuke looked over at his cousin; he could tell she was a little irritated.

"Sasuke, let's end this idiot's life…" Yep she was pissed now, she had activated her Sharingan long before they beat the crap out of him but it made her look a little scarier.

"Hn, alright."

The two of them began performing the exact same hand seals they'd use the same attack at the same time and finish him off.

"Katon! Goukakyuu no jutsu!" Two bursts of a flaming fireball came from the users engulfing their opponent in the flame. Kenta was now wriggling about in the middle of the fire prison; he couldn't die here, at least not at the moment. The attack cleared after a couple of minutes and he was barely standing up, he couldn't move though as the Uchiha pair had began an assault of weapons, kunai, shuriken, and a few makibishi had pierced parts of his body, mostly parts of his joints that rendered him useless now, he couldn't move either of his arms now, and he could hardly move his right leg. His eyes brought themselves up to gaze upon the two in front of him and then widened as he watched Sasuke making some other hand seals, Mari had prepared a few more kunai along with some exploding tags.

"Katon! Goukakyuu no jutsu!" Another flaming fireball made its way towards him at the same time the kunai with the attached tags did, the fire hit him first and then the kunai which the tags exploded. A short cry was heard before an explosion sound. The leader of the small group had been taken down. Silence filled the air about them now; they looked at each other before taking off in the direction of where the others may need their help. When they reached the spot where they'd first been targeted there was Naruto, Gaara, Mairiel and Sakura waiting for them.

"Where are Shikamaru and the others?" Sasuke asked.

"He went off to help some of the others in the closer part of the village. The others went to help Neji and his team before going to help some of the others on the far side of the village, I think we maybe needed at the gates, apparently there is more coming and the numbers are getting bigger." Sakura replied.

"So let's go then."

The group headed off towards the gates, and it was true, the number of enemy ninja was growing but not by much. There were a lot of injured Konoha and Sand ninja lying around however. It seemed that some of the Sand ninja had also been in the village under cover just incase an attack was sprung without warning. It wasn't long until most of the group had reunited at the gates, Yukai being the only other one from the Thunder village.

"I think the others are heading back now, I got a message from one of Phanexiel's birds not to long ago." Yukai said to Mairiel.

"Good, I think we're gunna need the help. We managed to kill three of them; I don't know how many enemies you had to deal with."

"A few, we got most of them, but the rest ran off so we all split up and went to different parts of the village to help, they seem to be coming in from all over the place… but they seem to be weak as hell." Yukai said with a sigh. She preferred challenging enemies not some push over ninja who thought that they were strong.

"Heh."

"Ah shit, more freaking ninja!" Naruto yelled as he began to perform hand seals for his Kagebunshin technique again.

"There are too many! Retreat into the village!" A random Konoha ninja instructed. Most of the ninja fell back, and a few remained waiting for the next wave of enemies to arrive, although the number looked a lot greater than the last lot.
