Diaclaimer : I do not own anything Naruto only thing I own is my ideas
Chapter 28
Naruto whistled as he walked back to where his team was supposed to be. He wasn't really surprised that they were both gone. Sighing he took a whiff of the area to catch the disgusting scents of his so called teammates. Sakura smelled like dead animals and too much perfume, while Sasuke smelled like a combination of despair and hatred. It was an interesting smell but brought out his killing intent if he focused on it to long.
He caught their scent mixed with that of snake and oil. Grimacing he glowered at the direction in which they were traveling. It was the complete opposite of where they needed to go. Taking a deep breath he calmed himself before his yokai went out of control. Touching his tattoo he sent out a signal message to all of his packmates. 'Oi the Snakes are here in Konoha so get ready.' Each signaled back with an informative before he settled back into reality and took off in the direction of the two idiots.
It took only a few minutes with his demonic speed to catch up with them. He hid among the trees to observe them for a while. In the center of the clearing stood three snake demons, two females and a male plus his two team mates. They were talking to each other and it looked as if Sasuke was happy and Sakura was getting pissed off even though she was scared as well.
Enhancing his hearing he listened to their conversation sneering as he heard what they discussed.
General Pov with Sasuke and Snake Demons
Sasuke smirked as he listened as the two freaks in front of him tried to make a deal. "So what you three are saying is that if I cooperate with you and Orochimaru will grant me power enough to kill my brother."
The male Snake demon stepped forward and pulled out a scroll sealed in a white snake skin. Grinning his fangs fell from the top of his mouth he spoke in a sibilant hiss. "Thissss issss the contract from our queen. SSSShe wantsss you to become our inside contact in this village and Orochimaru'ssss if he asssk it of you."
Sasuke glowered at him "Why would I do this when I get nothing out of this deal."
This time it was one of the females who spoke her black scales shinning in the light. "You get to be able to kill you brother with our help. It also gives you sppppiessssss acrosssss the nation to keep track of where he goesssss."
Sasuke nodded ignoring the chattering of Sakura who was glaring at the female snake. What would I have to do?"
The darker male demon stepped forward and held out a hand."All you have to do issss come with usss for a few hourssss to receive the blesssssing from our lady. Thissss will allow you greater strength n agility as well assss flexibility."
Sasuke grinned his black eyes glinting in greed as he reached to take the demon's hand. Naruto from the trees watched with discuss as his teammates made a deal with these traitorous demons. He glared down at them but his hands blurred through a disguise justsu so that the two idiots wouldn't recognize him and he could unleash his demonic side more. A moment later the jutsu took effect making him look like Kyo.
Releasing his demonic powers a bit he jumped from the tree and attacked the three snakes. A Quick clone jutsu and he was standing between the snakes and their prey. "Hmm looks like I interrupted some disturbing mating ritual." Tilting his head to look at both groups he smirked at their reactions before continuing. "Oh I'm sorry you were making a mating contract to get duckbut over there to have your babies' right. Cause I gotta say if you were trying to impregnate the pink thing you might end up shriveling what's left of your mini dicks."
He laughed internally as he watched both groups bristled with indignation the first to speak was one of the male snakes shouting in his hissing voice. "Whyyyy would we want that thing it'sssss voicceee isss like a bansssssshee wailing!
Sakura colored red at this insult and her inner self came to the fore. "Well why the hell would I want some mini dicks like you pricks. And you can't have my Sasuke either cause his little dick is for me only. Besides I already saw all of him, he was even calling my name in his sleep last night."
The crickets could be heard in the background as all the people in the clearing tried to understand her wailing. When the message was clear Naruto broke out laughing tears streaming down his face as Sasuke became redder and redder in anger and embarrassment. The snakes were looking at the two as if they were mental. The only girl in the group was backing up in disgust a sneer on her face. "I think the queen would be mosssssst welcome for an alliance but the joining of our clansssss issss unacceptable as you are a human."
Sasuke frowned at the way the snake woman worded her speech but simply grunted and tried to removed the pink leech from his arm. He was about to speak when the head of both the males snakes rolled to the ground followed by the surprised head of the female. Looking to the one who had ended his chances at getting revenge on his brother faster, he spotted the man who had interrupted them in the first place. He was cleaning a blade with the end of the females clothing.
Naruto looked up from where he finished putting away his blade to see both of his so called teammates stunned and unable to comprehend what happened. He smiled before jumping into the nearest tree. "Okay kiddies my job is done but your other teammate is still searching for the both of you."
He ran through the trees before either of the two idiots could think to go after him. Jumping down a mile away he detransformed and walked back the way he came. In his mind he prayed that the others were having a better time.
WITH GAARA AND THE SAND SIBLINGS BEFORE THE TOURNAMENT FINALS
Kankorou and Temari were both wary of their brother's mood change. After they came to leaf he had changed. He was calmer and seemed to be only slightly murderous. He had yet to threaten Kankouro at all today. Temari was the most confused as she was the one who caught her youngest brother actually sleeping. She had run into the room as soon as she spotted him lying seemingly dead.
Seeing a motionless Gaara she had thought their father's assassins had killed her brother at last. Kneeling next to the bed she noticed that the closer she got the more of a breathing motion his chest made. Sighing in relief she cautiously placed a hand against his neck to check that he was still alive. A steady heartbeat pounded against her trembling palm.
She startled when Gaara's eyes began to flutter as if he was going to wake up. She jerked away but made sure not to make a sound. Trembling she used all her ninja skills to get away from the bed without waking her brother. Wide eyed she stepped out of the room closing the door without a squeak. Turning she looked frightened at her other brother and sensei.
Gaara sat up his green eyes spotting his sister the only living being in his room. He glanced around the room smiling internally at the lack of yells in his mind. He let his mind wander to the ones who made it possible for him and Ichibi to be able to exist peacefully. Jumping from the bed he grabbed his gourd strapping it onto his back. He strapped his nin pouch to his leg covering it in a layer of sand to make it impossible to tell it was there.
He felt refreshed and ready for battle after a week worth of sleep. Looking out the window he noted the position of the sun indicated that it was already noon. Smiling for one of the first times in what felt like a lifetime Gaara walked from his room prepared to see the world through new eyes.
The first person to spot him was Baki who was reading over the mission details. He had already noted the late arrival of his kazekage's youngest son but knew not to disturb the demented nin unless he had a death wish. He did a double take when he saw the red haired nin smiling; even if it was only a small quirk of the lips. He motioned to his two other students catching their attention. This brought their eyes to the youngest in their group who smirked at them crossing his arms to show his nonchalant attitude. "We will not be taking part in this invasion any longer."
Baki sputtered before regaining his composure. Frowning he shook his head "It is the kazekage's will that we do this."
Gaara frowned before saying the words that would bring them and the rest of the sand army under his control. "Those orders are now void as father is dead."
