Ino and Haku scaled the castle with nothing but kunai and chakra. There cove dumped them outside on the east side of the castle. There goal was a small window thirty feet above the waters. Right now they had about five more feet to go. Ino stopped for a moment; she was running out of chakra. She looked up at Haku who was now climbing through the window and offering her a wet hand. She took it thankfully. Once inside she sighed.

"I'm beat…"

Haku helped her up and looked out the window.

"It's Yuka and Tonton…Ino look at this…"

Ino forced her self to look out the window to see a seagull carrying a pig wrapped in a blanket fly through the window.

"Yuka?"

The bird dropped Tonton into Haku's chest and landed on Ino's outstretched arm. Tonton looked at Yuka then jumped to the floor and ran out of the door on the other side of the room, followed by Yuka. Ino stared at the open doorway for a couple of seconds before grabbing Haku's hand and following.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hinata, Naruto, and Akira ran down the corridors until they reached a dead end. They walked through a door which led outside to a cliff (Yes a stone rocky cliff). Naruto looked over the edge to see the ocean far below him.

"Why would there be a cliff here?"

Akira went over to the door they had come through and stuck a key into it, locking the door.

"Sorry Hinata-san, but this ends here."

Before Hinata could even breathe, there was a figure behind her back and a kunai placed steadily at her throat.

"Hello Hinata."

Hinata knew that voice. She heard it during the chunin exams and never forgot it.

"K-K-Kabuto…san…"

He smiled removing the kunai from Hinata's neck and threw it up at a ninety degree angle. A drop of blood that spattered at his shoes was his reward. He looked up at the real Naruto and Hinata hanging on the side of the castle, the kunai buried in Naruto's leg.

Kabuto turned to Akira as the clone in his hand disappeared.

"Naruto-kun… No surprise you're here too. Akira…?"

Akira ran up the stone wall with inhuman speed.

"I'm on it!"

Akira juggernauted a shuriken at Naruto. Before Naruto to could manage one hand sign Akira was upon him, kicking him hard to the stone below where Kabuto was waiting. Naruto hit the stone, cracking it with the force of Akira's kick. He got up and attempted to run up the wall again when another Kunai slashed into his back with a scream of pain. As blood trickled down Naruto's legs he heard Hinata's scream above him. Kabuto smirked.

"I'm your opponent now Naruto…"

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Neji ran down the corridors being led by a sparrow. He was confused but he cooperated with the bird. Shinji kept on flying until he reached a small door in a dark hallway. The bird's size allowed him to easily fit through the window bars, and into the cell. Neji activated his byakagen and observed the tiny room. He froze.

"…T-Tenten?"

-------------------------------------------------------

Sasuke grabbed Sakura's hand and threw her into a wall.

"Don't get any ideas Sakura-chan. The only reason I wanted you is because that idiot Orochimaru needed a new body to infiltrate Konoha with. So I volunteered you."

Sakura clutched her wrist which broke in contact with the wall.

"So you were going to give me to him?"

"Yea I was…but that stupid girl got in the way, so I took her instead. Of course Orochimaru didn't want her and told us to kill her, but instead she was remarkable bait for you, eh Sakura?"

Sakura took out a kunai from her pouch and wiped tears from her eyes. She had to get out of here…

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ryuku looked at his sister who was still crying. Then he let go of her and took out a Kunai, throwing it at Sasuke. It of coarse missed, and it only drew the Uchiha's attention.

"You got your sister back so get out of here!"

Sakura stared at Ryuku, tears still running down her face.

"Ryuku?"

"Sakura…I really am sorry. I never wanted this to happen."

Sasuke looked at the two and drew his sword (where the hell did that come from?! o0).

"Your gonna regret this Ryuku."

Ryuku held the Shuriken ready. He couldn't just leave like this.

'Not while I can still change things'.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sasuke held the sword steadily. He didn't count on betrayal, but it was no problem. On normal circumstances he'd probably lose against Ryuku, but he had gotten a little tip from Akira that Ryuku had a crush on a certain girl…

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sakura held Nina (Ryuku's little sister) in her arms when she noticed Sasuke glancing at her. Before she could even blink she was in a deep kiss in Sasuke's arms, the strength to pull away had left her body years ago. The Uchiha's hands held her closely around her waist. A couple seconds later she was back on the floor with her shaking hand on her lips, and Nina once again at her side. Sasuke wiped his mouth and turned back to Ryuku who was already charging at him with raised fist, shuriken long forgotten. Sasuke raised his sword and charged also, grinning.

Kiba held the wooden bat tightly as he swung it into a man's chest. The boat was being attacked, and furthermore Kiba had no clue where Shikamaru had disappeared to. There were too many men for him to handle alone. He progressed through the ship, batting many men overboard.

"Where are you Shikamaru?!"
