Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto , only the pot of this story!

It was pure chaos. There was debris flying everywhere, There was buildings on fire, people screaming and running around. Thankfully the Sinobi force of the Sand Village was nothing to snort at. They were already using water Justus to hose down the fires and getting the villagers to a safe place. Gaara stepped outside and stood there, staring at the man causing his people anguish. He had that murderous look in his eyes that no one had seen in a long time. He had to stop it. The Rookie nine were just about to follow him, when he turned around and said "No, you stay and help the villagers. I'll take care of this freak."

With the look in Gaara's eyes, no one was about to protest. The went right away to the head jounin to see what they could do. Surprisingly they saw Kankuro standing with him.

"How can we help?" Naruto asked

"Well you can't. But the others can go with the other ninjas and help us make a barrier around the village." The Kankuro said

"WHY CAN'T I GO!" Naruto yelled

"Do you have a mirror? You are in no shape to fight. Besides, you are a target to the people who are attacking. Just like Gaara, you're not fighting tonight." Kankuro explained

"Ummm…….yeah, look up." Sasuke said

Kankuro looked up and saw none other than Gaara standing on his sand in mid-air, on his way to the bomber "DANG IT GAARA!!!!!!" he yelled in frustration. Gaara knew perfectly well that he was indeed a target. He was just too pissed to care.

"TEMARI!!!!!!!" Kankuro's shouting could be heard through out the village. That's what happens when you piss Kankuro off. Everyone's ears suffer.

Next thing you now Temari came running over to them.

"What do you want?" she asked. Knowing he was extremely mad

"OUR FOOLISH LITTLE BROTHER IS GOING TO FIGHT THAT GUY!" he shouted pointing at him

"What!!!! Oh man, this is not good……" she sighed "Okay, well Gaara can take care of himself but just in case…. We'll have to leaf ninja reinforce them. Except you Naruto."

Naruto sighed "I told you my life sucked Sasuke."

"Well, you'll have to suck it up for now." He joked and then left with the others.

Gaara was currently using his sand to block the bombs of the blond hair man attacking his village. His swift hand movements guiding the sand back and forth.

Dang it this guy is good. I only have a bit of clay left. I have to make this quick Deidara thought. Unfortunatly He was caught off guard and Gaara got his sand onto Deidara's arm.

"Sand coffin!"

And there goes his arm.

……Oh look at that my arm is gone.

But Deidara didn't have time to use his C-3 bomb because soon he found he couldn't move.

"Thanks for the help!" Gaara called down to Shikamaru who was using the Shadow Possession jutsu. But it was no use. Some clouds moved in front of the moon blocking the light. The Jutsu was broken and Deidara was released. He flew up a few feet trying to get high enough so they couldn't attack but that didn't work either. Shino had his bugs fly up and steel what was left of his clay.

"Give it back un!" he yelled

"Nu." Shino smirked

Deidara sighed. Sasori was going to kill him for this. He had no other choice. With no clay or for that matter chakra his only option was to flee. Or that's what he wanted them to think.

"Well this has been fun but I have to go." Deidara said and flew away before anyone could stop him.

"Get back here!!" Gaara called

But it was too late. He was gone. Gaara brought himself down on his sand.

"Well that was easier than I thought" he said

"I don't think he was even trying." Shikamaru added

"He wasn't." Kakashi 'poofed' in

"WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN DURING THIS!!!!!!!?" Naruto yelled

"Gathering info. Listen. He really wasn't trying. I have reason to believe that he was just here to analyze the protection around Gaara." He explained

"But Gaara ripped his arm off!" Sakura exclaimed

"Obviously this guy doesn't care. This is going to get rough and unfortunately he probably already knew about Naruto. That's why the Akatsuki sent that man after him." Kakashi said

"So he did all this just to get some info!" Ino exclaimed

"These guys aren't ones to mess around with. But we have time on our side this time. They won't be able to attack for a few months. They are going to use this time to plot and prepare. It may sound like a long time to do this but they are S-rank criminals. They use more chakra and will need to rest to get it back."

"Looks like we're going back to Konoha…" Sasuke smirked

Okay, listen I know that a lot of people are going to say this. I know that there isn't a big fight seen like I know you wanted but I have a good reason that I can some up in one word…SEQUEL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BELIEVE IT! ( oh and "Nu." Is not a typo. It just sounds cooler!)
