Miralover: This is my first Naruto fanfic. Sorry if I make the characters act a little OOC.

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or Final Fantasy VII.

The sky was a light shade of blue that contrasted with the dark green leafs of the trees. The leaves would rustle as an occasional breeze passed by, but Sasuke didn't really notice as he walked to his next destination. Behind him, Naruto was running while trying to escape one of Sakura's punches. Kakashi was too sucked into his "Come Come Paradise" book to notice the amount of noise they were making. They were returning to Kohona after completing a level C mission. All they had to do was escort a merchant to the closest town. It seemed like a pretty easy job, since nothing out of the ordinary happened.

"Ow! Why did you hit me Sakura-chan?" the blonde complained as he rubbed the now formed lump on his head.

"That was for nearly knocking me over the cliff back there," the brunette replied with a satisfied look on her face.

It was true. Sakura was in front of the group scouting ahead, when she reached the edge of a cliff. She was about to tell everyone to turn around, when Naruto came running into her and ended up knocking her over the side of the cliff. Luckily, Sasuke had grabbed her wrist and pulled her up before she would have fallen to her death.

"I'm sorry Sakura. I won't do it again," Naruto apologized.

"You're forgiven," Sakura replied as she caught up with Saskue and Kakashi who were far ahead of them.

"Hey, wait up for me!" Naruto yelled as he ran after her.

"How long till we reach Konoha?" Sasuke asked while staring straight ahead.

"In about one hour if we keep up at this pace," Kakashi replied without lifting his head from his book.

"I'm tired. Can we take a break Kakashi-sensei?" Naruto complained as he plopped himself on the ground panting.

"We'll take a five minute break seeing as Naruto decided to give himself one," Kakashi replied as he sat under a tree.

"I'm thirsty. I'm gonna go find some water. Sasuke, can you come with me?" Sakura asked.

"Oh, I'll take you Sakura!" Naruto offered as he stood up.

"I was asking Saskue not you, Naruto," Sakura replied.

"Why don't you all look for water, since you are all so eager to go?" Kakashi said with a sigh.

"Ok. Last one there is a rotten egg!" Naruto yelled as he sprinted off into the forest.

"Naruto! You can't just go running off like that. Hey, wait for me!" Sakura shouted as she followed after Naruto.

"What a dobe," Sasuke said to himself as he trailed behind Sakura.

He followed behind her for about a minute when he spotted a small clearing that held a lake. He quietly walked into the clearing and took a closer look in to lake.

"The water seems to be clear…" Sasuke mumbled to himself as he kneeled to get a closer look.

A green bubble floated out of the lake and into the sky where it popped. A green gas in the shape of the bubble floated into the sky and disappeared.

"That was odd," Sasuke thought.

"Yaay! Sasuke found water!" Sakura yelled as she walked into the clearing with Naruto trailing behind her sulking.

"He was just lucky," Naruto complained as he approached Sasuke.

"Whatever, dobe," Sasuke replied as he stood up.

"That's it! I challenge you right here and now!" Naruto yelled as he got into a fighting stance.

"Hn. Be prepared to lose, dobe," Sasuke replied with a smirk as he also got into a fighting stance.

"To make it a fair fight, you both can't use any jutsus! Ready, GO!" Sakura replied as she stepped behind a tree so she was out of their line of target.

Naruto charged toward Sasuke and jabbed him in the face. Saskue easily blocked Naruto's punch with his hand and jabbed Naruto in the stomach with his knee. Naruto clutched his stomach in pain as he leaped away from Sasuke. Naruto charged at Sasuke, throwing punches and kick once in a while. Sasuke was easily dodging all of Naruto's attacks. What he didn't notice was where Naruto was leading him. With every punch or kick thrown his way, Sasuke would take a step backward or to the side. Naruto face lit up with a grin as he tripped Sasuke into the lake. His grin faded quickly when he saw the lake begin to glow a light shade of green. The sky began to darken with heavy, thick clouds that appeared overhead. The ground shook as a beam of light green light shot up from the lake and into the sky. Naruto and Sakura shielded their eyes from the light till it faded away. Naruto was the first to open his and look at the lake in horror. The lake was gone! There was nothing there expect a deep ditch in the ground where the lake used to be.

"SASUKE!" Sakura yelled as she ran over to the ditch to take look inside.

When she looked in however, she found no single clue that Sasuke had ever been in there.
