A large wave was created from the marsh and went towards the ninjas who seemed to be frozen. She did a feezing jutsue when we werent looking! They all thought as the wave crashed into them.
While they were being thrashed by the wave the girl got on her horse and flue away. With a sad tear running down her cheek.
CHAPTER 3
The water washed away and Sasuke had unfrozen them all with his fire jutsues. Kakashi took a deep breath and sighed. "She seemed really scared, didnt she?" he asked looking at the younger ninjas.
"She was very beautiful though." Naruto said remembering the girl's beautiful eyes.
Sasuke ringed out his clothes and mumbled, "And strong too. I didnt even sence the chalkra she was using to create the wave and the freezing jutsue." Sasuke said as he sat down. He was shocked about the girl's power and also thought she was beauiful.
Kakashi noticed that his team was stuned. "I guess that was the Haruno girl. No wonder they said the Haruno clan was stronger then the Uchiha clan." Kakashi sighed as he held his head.
"The Haruno clan was stronger then the Uchiha clan?" Sasuke almost screamed. Kakashi nodded, Then this girl might be able to help me with restoring my clan. Then Uchiha will be a known name again with the strongest fighters as parents.
Kakashi noticed his state of mind and said, "Lets go to bed. To bad we dont have a medic on the squad anymore. I bet you all got hurt today." Kakashi whispered.
It was true. Everyone had shards of icy glass in their skin and deep wounds. They all nodded as they slipped into a dreamless sleep, all except for Sasuke. He kept having visions of Sakura.
Sasuke's eyes fluttered open when he felt a soft warmth on his body. He looked to see the same girl from earlyer. His eyes met hers and she seemed to smile. She held up her hand and whispered, "Vivificus."(1)
Sasuke didnt understand but he saw her chalkra around her hand and trusted her. He gave a nod and she reached down and healed him. The warm chalkra flooded his body with a feeling that he'd never felt before... selfless love.
When his wounds were healed she whispered, "Opus operis(2)," With that the woman got up and walked over to Naruto and did the same but without words since he didnt wake up. After that she did the same to Kakashi who also didnt wake up.
Sasuke got up all the nerve he could muster and asked, "Who are you?" The woman looked at him but didnt answer. Sasuke was angry that a woman had just brushed him off so he grabbed a kunai. "Answer the question." he hissed.
"Pugnax?"(3) she asked with a soft chuckle. Sasuke still didnt understand her and thought it was an insult.
Sasuke charged at the woman with great speed. Lets see if Uchiha is better then Haruno? He wondered in his mind.
The woman just shock her head as she got to her feet slowly, "Stultus."(4) she whispered. Sasuke jabbed the kunai her way but cut deep into a tree. "Nequam...(5)balatro."(6)she snapped as she broke his arm with a flick of her finger.
Sasuke wanted to scream but something inside him wouldnt let him. His pride was hurt, a girl had healed him then beaten him to a pulp. The woman finally let go and walked off knowing he wouldnt follow her. Well I guess they are right Haruno is stronger then Uchiha. I wonder how strong Sakura got? Sasuke fell back asleep right were he was along with a broken arm, his last thought... Sakura.
THE NEXT DAY
"SASUKE-TEME! WAKE UP." Naruto screamed shaking Sasuke's body. Sasuke's eyes opened slowly to see the despret blond. "Thank god!" he said looking at Kakashi.
"Sasuke what happened? We're all healed and you're on the floor like you lost a fight." Kakashi said.
Sasuke sat up and noticed that his arm was healed. Did she come back and heal me? Sasuke turned to his teammates, "That woman from the marsh came and healed you last night. We got into a fight and I guess I lost."
Kakashi nodded and checked Sasuke's arm for any other wounds. Suddenly a rabbit walked out of the brush, "Ninja!" the rabbit snapped.
"THAT THING FUCKING TALKED!" Naruto screamed pointing at the white rabbit. A snarling fox walked out and staired at the ninjas.
"What village are you from, lie and be killed." he hissed with his hair standing up.
Kakashi seemed to be staying clam the whole time, "Konoha. We're looking for an archer about a scroll." Kakashi held out the scroll as proof of their mission.
The fox stopped hissing and nodded, "The archer you seek is at the manshion. Be carefull of what you say and be on gaurd. She's got a fisty temper these days." he mumbled walking off.
Naruto smirked, "Now we're going back to the palace? I hope we see that beautiful girl again." Naruto started fantising but Sasuke smacked him out of it.
Everything was silent for a second but you could hear the leaves move. Everyone suddenly felt a strong curent of air rush bye. "Sasuke Naruto get out of here!" Kakashi yelled. Everyone turned to see Kakashi being pined to a tree by four arrows. One in his thigh, one in his right shoulder above his main artery, one though his left sleeve, and hte last pinning his pants to the tree.
"Kakashi!" they both yelled running to his side only to be pinned to the trees themselves. "Come out where ever the hell you are!" Sasuke yelled as blood came from his wounds.
The red haired girl walked out in a tan tube top and a skirt with a silver bow at her side (See archer pic on bio). On her back was an arrow case holding thosands of arrows. "Trado!" (7)she snapped drawing another arrow from the case ready to fire.
No answer came from anyone. They didnt understand her. The girl pulled back the string and was about to fire when the fox came out again. "Confuto." (8) he whispered. The woman stopped and put the arrow back.
She sighed and knelt down to the fox, "Quianam?" (9) she asked as she strocked the fox's fur. The fox rubbed up agenst her.
"They are friends, ne? They just dont know the past." the fox said with a smile. The woman smiled aswell.
She smiled as she got to her feet and stood infront of them. "I welcome you to the Haruno woods. I'm sorry for my rudeness. I thought you were sound nins so I thought only to protect my family." she whispered.
"Who are you?" Naruto and Sasuke asked in unison as she walked over to them. She put her hand on Sasuke's chest right where the arrow had hit, "What are you doing?" Sasuke asked feeling pain in his chest. Her touch was soft and Sasuke was fighting back the heat running to his cheeks.
"Hold still." She took hold of the arrow and jerked it out. "Damn that will take too long." she said to herself. She walked back to the fox and did some hand seals, "Melt away!" she whispered loudly. The silver arrows started to melt but the hot metal didnt hurt the pinned men.
The silver fell to the ground and became arrows again. "How did you do that?" Naruto asked picking up one of the arrows. "Did you heal us?"
The woman smiled and walked over to Naruto. She came to her knees and healed him quickly and did the same for the others. "I'm sorry for hurting you." she whispered to them all with anod of her head. She looked down at the fox again with a smile, "My friend here tells me you have a scroll for me?"
Kakashi pulled out the scroll, "And you one for us?" he asked looking at the girl.
She laughed nervosly, "So Tsunade-sama didnt tell you?" She took the scroll and opened it and read it aloud.
You have finally done what was expected. Welcome back to Konoha my dear. I wish you well on your jouney. You've been strong this long now only a little longer. You've kept your strength and your wit about you. When you come back to Konoha you will be welcomed as any ninja but also as an Empress of a great clan.
Your friends have missed you and so has the rest of the village. You have done your part and you've been great. Please come back to our village with your same happy heart.
She read aloud. "So what does it mean?" Naruto asked in confusion. Sasuke and Kakashi didnt answer since they were stairing at the girl infront of them who just kept smiling.
