Disclaimer- I do not own Naruto; if I did Kisame would have a lot more battle scenes.

Previously in Vice Versa: A Naruto Tale-
The screams of the four ANBU could be heard a mile away. Luckily no one was a mile near the valley. After making sure all of the ANBU were dead he began to repair the valley, making sure it looked like no one was ever there. He proceeded to get rid of the seal Rai had placed on him, and walked home.

Sakura awoke, startled. Looking next to her she sighed at the empty space. Sasuke had left again. Ever since Naruto had been captured Sasuke had been acting weird. He disappeared at night, and would come back disgruntled.
She looked up and sighed again. At that time she would have given anything for that to be her only problem, but no, there was still this whole hokage business. Who would steal the bodies of the past hokage's and how did they know about the room. The only clans that were given information as to the existence of a burial sight were the Uchihas, Hyuugas, and the Naras.
Sakura had some other questions. Whoever took the bodies knew of the strange mark, and how to activate it. Also, why had Sasuke seemed so relieved that she didn't know ho the culprit was? Questions, questions.
Sakura sat back down in bed, and was about to fall asleep when she heard a noise. It wasn't a loud noise, but a quite one. She shrugged and shut her eyes. Unknown to her a pair of eye's was watching her.
"Soon your power shall be mine." it said.

Sasuke ran through the forest heading towards the border of Amegakure and Konoha. He was to meet a business man who collected bodies of famous shinobe. Anbu had been trying to find the supplier, but the trail always ran dry. A few months ago the business man's mysteriously went missing.
He was about five minutes from the border when Sasuke felt a presence following him. At first he believed that it was Anbu, but as he activated sharingan he found that this person's chakra pattern was not that of an Anbu, but it still felt vaguely familiar.
Sasuke decided that as long as it wasn't a leaf ninja he would just try to lose them in the woods. Unknown to him a set of eyes was watching him as he tried to lose the other entity.
"Soon, they will be mine." it hissed.

Naruto couldn't shake the feeling that something bad was about to happen. As he arrived at his home he saw something nailed to the door. It was a Leaf headband with a note attached to it. It read:
Dear Uzumaki Naruto,
You are to report the council chambers at exactly four o'clock pm on the following day you receive this. Attendance is mandatory, and if not complied you shall be re-declared an S-rank missing-nin who is to be terminated on site.
He couldn't help laughing at the note. He had been missing for years and abandoned the village. He killed one of the sannin, and joined a criminal organization that was bent on killing every kage in the world. After all of that they had diminished the bounty on his head. He laughed again.
Naruto knew who was behind this. About two years ago Konoha had signed a treaty with Kumokagure, which is one of the main countries that was after him. When the treaty was signed it made Konoha the main country, which meant it had control over its militia. That meant Sakura had control over this stuff.
What he couldn't believe was that she was so trusting. He also couldn't believe that she believed that he would one: do what the council requested, and two: he would stay put, and be nice. He remembered what Rai had said, and he wasn't about to be Konoha's bitch. He looked at the clock as he walked inside, and he saw that it was three pm.
Naruto summoned up two shadow clones to keep watch incase the council
followed through with their threat. He handed a scroll to one clone and a flash bomb to the other. He didn't want them to fight, but he needed a distraction so he could get ready.
Naruto thought of the fact that Danzou might come. Normally he could take him on, but without Kyuubi it would be very hard. Not to mention that he couldn't access the powers of either of his swords. He couldn't use that jutsu yet, and his Zodiac Boost scroll was unusable. If he got caught they would search him. If that happened they would find the mission information he was given before he left HQ.
Normally he would have gotten rid of the info, but it contained something that could not be memorized. He decided it would be best to but it somewhere. Naruto summoned a toad and encased the note in a summoning scroll, along with his two swords. The toad swallowed the scroll, and Naruto whispered to it the coordinates that they would meet.
After it disappeared he sat down in bed and closed his eyes, unaware of a pair of eyes watching him.
"Soon." it said. "Soon your demon will be mine."

A.N.- I'm back baby! Sorry it's been a while, but I am back. In the last author's note I said I would be putting up the summaries for the new books. I can't do hat for the sequel because it states what will happen at the end of the book. Sorry. Also I will be updating every Sunday. I may not update in the morning but it will be updated. Anyways here are the chapter reviews for the last few chapters.
Ranting Corner
WARNING! SPOILERS BEYOND THIS POINT!
Chapter 375 to 381- I have to say that the Pein versus Jiraiya fight was one of the best yet. There was a lot of looking into the past and hardcore fighting. Unfortunately it wasn't as lone as the Naruto Sasuke fight but this one is better.
Chapter 382- Well, now we know the origin of Naruto's name, and we have a good look at Kushina. Naruto does look more like her!
Chapter 383- Well this chapter was the end of one fight and the start of two. Now I'm pretty sure that Jiraiya is alive buy in an interview Kishimoto states that "he will live forever in our hearts".This is the start of the Tobi vs. Konoha team, and the Sasuke vs. Itachi fight.
Chapter 384- This was actually a very disappointing fight. I hope this isn't it because they have been building up the hype for this fight since the beginning of the series. They had Sasuke betray the village and join a pedophile for this fight, and they pretty much ended it in a minute.
Kishimoto's Interview: The people who play Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura in the Japanese anime asked Kishimoto some questions at a past anime convention. It was about the manga in 2008. Kishimoto said that in this next year he will be focusing on Kakashi, Sakura, and Sasuke. He also says that "something big" will happen to Kakashi. When asked what about Naruto, Kishimoto laughed and stated: "He will have to wait." It seems the series will not end until 2009.
