Yeah. So I found this on my computer when I was cleaning it out, and I realized that I totally forgot about this story. Well, I suppose I should post this since I already had it. Should I continue or not? Mind you, spring break is coming up and I'll have a ton of free time.


As he started to pick Hinata up, he felt a hidden presence. "Come on out, before I come find you myself," he said tiredly. He saw a person coming down from a tree, and recognized them at once. The blue-eyed man swore while thinking, what the hell is this, a reunion?

Hissori Arashi put Hinata down, and arranged himself into a loose taijustu stance. He then looked up at the two ANBU. One had silver hair that seemed to sway to one side, and was wearing an ANBU mask resembling a dog, while the other had black hair that hung over his face, while holding a cat-like ANBU mask. Shit! It's Sasuke and Kakashi! Why me! I didn't want to deal with this, especially not in my condition. I'll need a week to recuperate, before I can use my chakra. I'll just pretend not to be a threat. I can only hope it works. I really don't like to rely on my taijustu alone. Well, here I go!

"Oye! Can you bring this girl back to her village? Some bandits tried to attack her while she was hurt. I really have to get going. . ." Arashi trailed off, looking to the path away leading away from Konoha.

"Don't listen to him! He's a threat to Konoha! This man is Hissori Arashi!" Hinata screamed with a quivering voice.

Arashi laughed nervously, rubbing the back of his head. "Oh come on! Thanks, for thinking so high of me. But, I was only passing by." He stopped suddenly when he felt a kunai pressed to his throat firmly. His eyes darted to the side quickly and saw the dark-haired man standing beside him with a cold look on his face. "Don't do anything rash now. I don't want your hand to slip!" He said hoarsely as a bit of blood trickled down his throat.

"I'll tell you what. You come to Konoha with us, we make sure we're not letting loose an S class missing-nin, and then you can go on your way. Or, we could kill you now, as a possible threat, and then take you to Konoha," Sasuke snarled, pressing a little bit harder against the nin's throat, drawing more blood and turning Arashi pale.

Arashi chuckled evilly. "Sasuke-teme, I don't want to go back to Konoha. Why would I? And let me tell you, I don't do anything that I don't want to do. I'll kill you before I go back to that miserable hell hole!" He roared as he flung his head back haphazardly, hoping to contact the other nin's face.

Sasuke jumped back before he was hit, and grabbed some shuriken and kunai out of a pouch. He threw it as he flew back, gracefully landing on a tree branch. "How do you know my name? Only one person can call me that, and it's not you!" He screamed, flinging a kunai at the intruder.

Crap! My body is slightly off without charka in me! My actions are delayed, and he's throwing the kunai so fast, that I don't have time to calculate where it's going! Arashi thought as dodged, the kunai slicing into his hood. He ran towards Sasuke incredibly fast, Sasuke could barely make him out with his normal eyes. Sasuke then jumped to the side, avoiding the slash made by Arashi, which would have made a deep wound in his chest.

"Sharingan!" The raven haired man yelled as dots appeared in his red eyes, and started swirling. Sasuke held his right arm as blue charka collected in his palm. The charka looked like controlled lightning and sounded like a thousand birds as he rushed at the nuke-nin. Arashi jumped straight up, just avoiding Sasuke. Suddenly, a dark kunai swept by. Arashi looked where it came from, and saw that it came from the silver haired man, standing forgotten on the tree branch. The kunai grazed his cheek, after which Arashi felt coolness and fresh air upon his cheeks, and saw a black cloth float gently to the ground.

"Naruto! What the hells going on?" Sasuke questioned, recognizing him for his whisker-like birth marks. Sasuke relaxed his body and grinned widely up at Naruto. "Finally, you've come back! Come back to Konoha with us, dobe."

"I don't go by that name anymore. I haven't been to Konoha in ten years, what makes you think I want to go back now? I never want to see that place again! I never want to see you again!" He said coolly, pulling out his sword from the sheath on his back.

"Uzumaki Naruto, you are a C-class missing nin, but your alternate name is an S-class in the bingo book. We are to bring you to Konoha or kill you on site if seen on a mission or otherwise noted," Kakashi stated in a monotone voice, staring at Naruto in an uncaring manner.

Naruto rushed at Kakashi while bringing up his sword, in the meantime, Kakashi gripped his wrist, creating his only original jutsu as Sasuke gave Kakashi more time by showering Naruto with kunai. The kunai might have been air for all that it mattered to Naruto, as he was seen flashing at in open air around the field while he charged at Kakashi. Kakashi then rushed to Naruto, leaping off the tree with so much force that a long, heavy branch crashed to the ground. The blue lightning was thrust at Naruto an instant away. Naruto blocked the chidori with the flat of his blade, instantly repelling the chidori, burning the masked-nin's glove and hand.

Sasuke increased the density of the shower of kunai. A loud scream was heard as Hinata appeared before Naruto. Hinata hugged Naruto with tears streaming down her cheeks. The blades made a loud thud against her back as she convulsed against Naruto. The kunai protruded out of her back, letting loose rivers of blood that ran down her back.

"ano. . . Naruto-kun. . . I missed you. . ." Hinata whispered and coughed blood before slumping against Naruto with shallow breathing and closed eyelids.

Naruto stared at the girl – no, woman in his arms in shock. Surprisingly the first thing that registered in his mind was that Hinata didn't stutter like she used to, after that came the torrents of thoughts that raced through his mind. Nani! She protected me? Why? Is this a plot to bring me back to Konoha? No. She wouldn't do this to me, anyone else would, but she wouldn't. Anyways, it doesn't matter anymore. . . Kuso! She needs help! I still can't use my chakra yet to heal her. Naruto looked around wildly then sprinted off into the forest, disappearing from view instantly.

Sasuke swore under his breath. "Kakashi-san, we need to track them. The missing-nin has taken our medic, and it is possible that she is in trouble, or that classified information will be leaked. Naruto is not the same person we know. He is now unpredictable to us. We don't know him anymore."
