Chapter 2

A week and a half had passed and Taku had what Rai was waiting for. It was a Jutsus that could take a person back to a certain time that they wanted, the person would still have all their memories, but they would be able to change time. It could only be used once and Taku was going to destroy the scroll with the secret so that it would never be used again. Rai wanted to be taken back to when Orochimaru bit Sasuke, and take the wound for herself.

"Are you ready?" Taku asked.

"As I'll ever be," Rai answered. With that Taku started to do the signs for the Jutsus.

"Bye Rai."

"Bye Taku." With that Rai was thrown into the forest were Sasuke's life would be changed. That's when she saw the fight between Naruto and the snake. She sat and watched the events unfold again only this time right as Orochimaru was about to bite Sasuke, she threw him out of the way and he bit her instead.

"What?!" Orochimaru yelled as he noticed that it was not his intended victim that he had bitten.

"Dragon's Fire Jutsu," yelled Rai as she threw hundreds of fire balls at Orochimaru, forcing him to retreat and run away because he's a coward.

"Who are you?" Sasuke asked, recovering from the fear and shock of some girl that was very familiar, that he didn't know saving him. By that time the bite was starting to affect Rai.

"Just a passerby that saw someone in trouble and wanted to help," she lied.

"Are you ok?" asked Naruto as he saw her sway a little.

"I'm fine, you three need to finish your test though," she said, suddenly realizing that she needed to get them back on track.

"What about you, you're hurt, we shouldn't just leave you here," Sakura said coming to her senses also.

"You can and you will," Rai answered looking at them.

"What did he do to you?" Sasuke asked as he saw the bite form into a seal of three straight lines.

"Nothing that concerns you anymore. Now get out of here and get your scrolls," Rai yelled getting frustrated.

"We are taking you with us," Naruto suddenly said.

"No, I'll slow you guys down," Rai answered immediately.

"Don't care; you'll waste more time if you continue to argue with us. Now you are coming with us so you can get some medical attention," Naruto said firmly. The battles seriousness still lingering on him.

"Fine, but you three had better do what I say," Rai said.

"Why should we?" Sasuke asked looking at her.

"Because, where I'm from I was a top ANBU member since I was six, and I'm more powerful than you and Naruto are right now," Rai said emotionlessly as she started to walk away, the other three following her, keeping their guard up so they could get some more scrolls.

"Was?" Sakura asked.

"I used to be a ninja of the Village of the Mist, but I didn't like their ways so I asked to leave, and they let me, of course I did threaten their lives so they were more lenient," she answered smirking a little.
