It was around mid-afternoon; according to the map we already passed the ½ mark toward Kumogakure. It was a rather loud afternoon with Naruto and his constant ramblings and the occasional barking of Akamaru. There…there was something in the air which was bothering me. I activated my Byakugan, Kunai…flying toward here, going to hit...Sakura! Should I help her? I guess so. I jumped toward Sakura pushing Sakura down. "Hey look what you did, my new dress is all dirty now!" she shouted, and then the three kunai landed in the spot she was just at. "Hmph…I could've saved myself." She said.

"Run, one of the kunai has an explosion note stuck to it!" shouted Kiba. We quickly scrambled away; I and Naruto were only hit by the explosion but only by a little. Kiba ran up to me, "Are you okay Hinata?" he asked

"Yeah." I said while getting up.

"Show yourself, I know where you are." Said Shino

"Little brats are sharper that they look." Said a ninja emerging out of the trees, he was a Rain shinobi. The two more Rain shinobi emerged from the trees then 3 Grass shinobi and then three Sound shinobi. "I'm sorry but you three aren't getting any farther." Said one of the Sound ninja.

"That's what you think!" shouted Sakura while chucking a barrage of shuriken at the Sound ninja then charged after them. "C'mon Akamaru!" shouted Kiba, "Jūjin Bunshin!" Akamaru jumped ontop of Kiba then Akamaru transformed into Kiba, "Gatsūga!" he shouted when spining with Akamaru furiously. "Kikaichū no Jutsu." Said Shino while calling out his Kikaichu insects out of his body. It's my turn, Juken! I charged toward one of the Rain shinobi, hitting some chakra points, barely. I continued hitting him, he dodged my attacks rather easily, until kicking me back. "Hinata!" shouted Naruto. He ran up to me to help me up, "Are you okay?" he asked.

"Yeah." I said. He helped me up. "They are very knowledgable, the enemy knows a lot about Juken fighting style." I said. They can easily block my moves, this will be difficult. I charged at the same opponent again, throwing some shuriken at him first. Damn…they're too quick. I tried hitting them when they land but it was a kawarimi. The ninja appeared behind me and covered my mouth, there was poison powder in his hand! I tried not to inhale the powder but it was too late I inhaled a moderate amount, enough to knock me out, my mind slowly backing into darkness…losing consiousness.

Third Person POV

The battle raged on, "Damn…they know how to block every one of our attacks." Said Kiba

"Calm down Kiba, I have a plan." Said Shino calmly, "Call everyone here."

"HEY GUYS GET OVER HERE!" shouted Kiba. Naruto and Sakura came here obidiently, "Where is Sauske-kun?" asked Sakura.

"I'm here." He said coming in late, his clothes were ragged and half falling off.

"Dang Sauske…was fighting them that hard for you?" asked Naruto

"Hell no, my clothes just got stuck in a thorn bush and started falling off." He explained.

"Whatever." Said Naruto.

"Where's Hinata?" asked Kiba

"I dunno." Said Sauske.

"I'm gonna get her." Said Kiba

"No…there is no time!" shouted Sauske in a flustered manner, "We need to hear Shino's plan first."

"He's right, there's not time to dwindle, we need to defeat these guys fast and return to the mission." Said Sakura. Kiba didn't answer, he looked down with a defeated look on his face, "Go on with the explaining Shino." He said. Shino gave him a look…Kiba gave him a look back. "Okay…so defeat these quickly we need to take them down one by one." He said

"But what about the others?" asked Kiba

"Sakura can trap them in a genjutsu." He said

"Okay, put the plan into motion." He said. The 4 leaf shinobi faced toward one of their many opponents while the pink haired kunoichi preformed some hand seals. The plan was in motion, and where is Hinata?

Hello all, sorry this chappy was unbelievably short but yeah, I started writing then I stopped, then started, then stopped, then I decieded to just finish it. I got a new couple idea…how about Yamato/Hinata or a story about Haku(if he didn't die at The Great Naruto Bridge). Either those two, sorry but I'm dropping the Shikamaru/Hinata idea…maybe write it for later. Anyways tell me what you think about the short little battle scene I thought up. I thought it was too detailed…but yeah. Sayonara!
