Chapter7: On matters about falling
Later that night, the forest was attacked by menacing ninjas seeking for a chest containing a special herb. it was almost a new day and the sunlight peeks through the clouds playfully. Team 7 did not notice their coming but was alarmed lately when one of the attackers recklessly stepped on one of Sakura's traps. It was not supposed to be for the intruders, it was for Sasuke-kun.
After having the conversation with Sasuke, Sakura thought about the chances of forgiving Sasuke. He was quite good these days and seemed more nice to her. as she was pondering about such things, she shovels large lumps of wet soil and prepares a hole suitable for a human to be trapped in. she then, carefully disguised with the normal environment and proceeded to her tent, pretending to sleep.
Kakashi, the leader of the group, decided to take a pee in the nearby trees. He cautiously walked towards it and heard the anxious soft scream of a male human. The sound was barely audible but in Kakashi's hearing it was clear as daylight. He slowly went to take his pee and try to investigate the matter.
The 4 ninjas who were assigned to bring back the chest to their leader were now crying their lungs out. They were not that good in terms of fighting but excellent in panicking. Fuga, the one trapped in the dug hole, was bumping his head on the earth, not even thinking on how he would get out of it. He only thought of how he got in there. They shouted for help, though they were advised strongly not to be seen by anybody.
Kakashi woke up the remaining members. They arranged themselves and readied for some briefing. The team was still in a haze of sleep but as soon as they've heard that some ninjas who are 'capable' of doing serious harm to their village, their veins pumped energy and blood into their bodies and their minds started to work. Kakashi suggested a game plan and everybody agreed to it. now, the true fight would begin.
The four poor souls were practically yelping on anything that moves. They were desperate, which really show on their pale faces, as the group of younger ninjas arrives and examined them carefully.
These were the people whose supposed to cause harm, Sasuke thought but kept the idea for himself.
10 minutes later, Fuga and the others were happily thanking them for 'saving their lives' from the 'dangerous traps'. Sakura though, didn't reveal that she was behind those. they again thanked them and continued on their journey.
"wait… why are you here on the woods?" Naruto asked out of boredom
"well, its supposed to be a secret mission but since you saved us, might as well share it with you. Maybe you can help us too!"
Sasuke sighed but listened as the taller member narrated half of their lives and in the end saying: " we are here to find a special herb that can heal an epidemic that spread in our village".
"im sorry but we have our missions and we are stationed here to observe. In short, we would be unable to help you." Kakashi offered his apologies and dismissed the group.
Later that day, Sakura was seen observing the hole. she was thinking of a good plan to make Sasuke fall for that trap. Pondering hard, her eyebrows frowned in concentration. The environment was silent and still. Suddenly, Naruto shouted something that made her jump. Into the dug hole.
Nobody heard her shout for help. Nobody knew she was there. And she is in pain and too troubled. Is it a part of her plan? Or just some random circumstance by fate?
