Chapter 5: Dreams
He was walking in a very long corridor to an unknown destination. His feet seem to glide through the hallways to the unknown darkness beyond that threatens to consume him but never does come. He looked around to see that the walls are plastered black. He tried to touch them but he couldn't seem to reach it with his hands. His feet seem to drag him to a different direction every time he leaned in on a direction. He came upon a room with two doors. The hallways he passed through earlier disappeared leading him to this room. The room was not that large. It had paintings of different persons he has never even met before. He regained control of his feet now. He found that he has to muster all the strength that he has to move them. He walked to a certain painting which was in the middle of the two doors, though he didn't know why. He was close enough to reach it but still couldn't. The paintings face seems to get duller the closer he was. He couldn't see the face. A mass of darkness was covering his eyesight. Then he heard a voice…
"Pick a door…" it was a child's voice, a girl.
"Why?" he found that he too had to muster all the strength in his lips and tongue to speak.
"To know what lies beyond…" the voice responded no longer of the child but of an old woman.
"Beyond what?" he asked again uncertain if it was the same person he was talking to earlier.
"Beyond his heart" the voice of a grown man responded.
"Who?" he asked yet again.
He waited but there was no answer. He then pondered if he should just open a door or not. Then he decided to open the door to the left of the painting. He turned the knob albeit pretty slowly, but the truth is it was really hard to turn. He used up all his strength and opened the door. When he got to the other side he was already panting. He observed the room which lies before him. His eyes went wide. The room's walls had blood oozing from its cracks. Blood dripped from its ceiling. And different heads with no bodies lie before them. He moved his hand to cover his mouth and nose from the stench. Blood was dripping on him. He tried to move but he was rooted on the spot. A figure walked from the shadows which encompassed half of the room towards him. The light which was behind him slowly revealed the shadow that was walking towards him. He could see blond hair mixed with blood. Orange and black clothes soaked with blood. His head was hung low, his hair hiding his face. It's like he took a bath, a bath of blood.
"N-Nar-Naruto?" his voice shaking.
The figure raised its head, blue piercing eyes caught his.
"Gomenasai… Kakashi-sensei…" his voice almost a whisper.
"Naruto… what happened…?"
"Gomen, Kakashi-sensei" he paused " but… I need your blood…"
Kakashi tried to answer but blood poured out from his mouth. Then he heard a voice…
"-kashi!" a loud voice echoed in his ear as he snapped back from the dream world.
'Damn, my head hurts…it's that dream again…' He rubbed his head and swiped off the sweat that must have formed when he was having a nightmare. He looked around to see that he was sleeping on top of a small food stall.
"Kakashi-san, you shouldn't doze off in a public area you know, some people might take advantage of you while you're asleep" the voice spoke.
Kakashi inspected his surroundings to see who owns that annoying voice.
"Some people like you…Sai?" he responded looking at the rat-masked ANBU.
"The Hokage wants to see you at 5 for your report on your recent mission" he said; taking off his mask and smiling at the grey haired jounin.
"I had that dream again…" he said his voice low.
"Eh? That dream where you got drunk and mobbed by a couple of women then taken to a motel only to flip out remembering you haven't been circumcised and still virgin with no such experience in handling sexual situations with numerous women at a time?" he smiled after his brief story.
"No…" he wondered where the hell this kid gets all that stuff from "…it's about Naruto…"
"Oh… You're gay then?" he said still smiling.
"You know what I mean…" glaring at Sai.
"Then you should see a doctor" he smirked putting his mask back on.
"There's a doctor on these kinda things?" he inquired.
"No, but there's one for your brain" he said before he left in a puff of smoke.
'Bastard…'

Somewhere in the Tea Country…
"Orochimaru-sama, you think it wise to trust those two? Knowing Deidara…"
"Kukuku… don't be stupid Kabuto, it is they who should think twice in trusting us…"
"But you don't have the Hachibi…"
"Yes… but I know where it is… The Hachimata has chosen a powerful host that's why Sasori and I failed to capture it…"
"But do you think that Deidara can beat Sasuke? He couldn't even defeat Kakashi…"
"It's not Deidara they should worry about kukuku… the other one will bring me Sasuke, that I am sure…"
'The other one? The masked one?'
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Somewhere in Konoha…
"Deidara-senpai, can't we take a break? We've been looking forever…" Tobi said his head hung low.
"No! We have to find that kid before sunset yeah…" Deidara said as he continued walking not noticing that his partner was already lagging behind.
"Tobi! Hurry up!" he shouted catching the attention of patrolling ANBU.
"Halt!" one of the ANBU shouted.
'Darn, at this rate we'll alert the whole village, we can't have that, yeah'
"Tobi, time to split!" dashing and hopping through Konoha's residences, hurrying to the walls of Konoha for an escape with his partner and ANBU close in tow.
Sasuke had just come walking from the park when he felt several chakra signatures not far from his location. 'What's going on?' he then jumped in pursuit of the chakra signatures and saw several ANBU following two figures in red cloaks. 'Akatsuki? Were they looking for Naruto?' his thoughts were interrupted when his former sensei joined him in pursuit.
"What's happening? I felt two strong chakra signatures while I was readind and-"
"Akatsuki" Sasuke cut him off from saying his excuses.
"If they are, mere ANBU are no match for them" Kakashi stated getting a nod from Sasuke. They sped up as they approached the walls and are already side by side with the ANBU. When they were close enough, Kakashi chose this time to speak.
"Report this to the Hokage, you are no match for them!" He shouted at the ANBU.
"Kakashi-san, it's our duty to kill any nuke-nin that comes to this village we can't just allow-"
"How can you protect the village if you die now?" Kakashi cut him off. "Sasuke and I are just few of the people who can match up to them… leave it to us!"
"…I understand…" he motioned for his team to stop.
Kakashi and Sasuke sped up even more as they entered the forests outside Konoha.
With the other two…
"Deidara-senpai, there are two people following us… Hatake Kakashi and that Uchiha kid"
Deidara raised an eyebrow; even his scope couldn't see who's following them. 'I really have to ask Zetsu about what this one can do'
"The Uchiha kid, eh? This is perfect, yeah…" he then molded some clay into a bird and hopped on it and flew into the air.
"Huh? What about me Dedara-senpai?" he asked at the fading shadow of a bird which soared through the skies.
Deidara was now very high up that he could see the entire forest. He used his scope to pinpoint their pursuers.
"Why don't me give the a little surprise bang, yeah?…"
Down in the forest…
"Pakkun, are they near?" Kakashi was talking to a dog that he hurriedly summoned as they left the walls.
"They seemed to have stopped, well one of them did." They stopped as Pakkun sniffed the air. "This can't be! His here!"
"What?" both Kakashi and Sasuke took a kunai and shifted into fighting stance.
A shadow dropped from atop the trees and landed in branch in front of them. It then looked at them.
"You!" Kakashi shouted "I thought you were dead!"
"Surprise! surprise! Why don't we start things with a bang, yeah?" –high in the sky a person muttered "Hijutsu: Giji Shijou Bakuha!"-
Kakashi was about to say something when the person in front of them exploded without warning, sending Kakashi and Sasuke (Pakkun disappeared with a poof like all summons) flying far into different directions.
"He, idiots." Deidara said while admiring his work.
"Deidara-senpai!" Deidara was startled to see Tobi standing behind him on his bird. 'How the hell?'
"I'll take care of Kakashi-san and you take care of the Uchiha kid ok, Deidara-senpai?" it wasn't really a question. At that, he surprised Deidara again when he jumped off hurtling down into the forest. 'I really have to ask Zetsu, yeah'
Down on the forest floor…
Kakashi was slowly getting up when he saw someone charging at him. He quickly readied himself as he blocked a right punch aimed at his chest by catching it with his two hands, his opponent seeing this lifted his right foot, shifting his weight on his left foot and delivered a swift kick to Kakashi's abdomen. The action was quite swift that Kakashi didn't see it coming. The kick was pretty strong sending him a few meters away from his opponent.
"Attacking your opponent when he's not yet ready… so this is Akatsuki?" he said in a mocking tone.
"Sorry, I'm a new member. I didn't know that I have to wait for you to get up before killing you, gomen!" Kakashi sweatdropped seeing a member of the most infamous criminal organization apologize to him.
'He seems like an idiot, but his speed and movement is just like Itachi…' Kakashi not taking any chances raised his hitai-ate to reveal his matured sharingan. 'He is one of them… I'll have to take him seriously, then…' Kakashi's thoughts were cut short when he heard his opponent laughing maniacally. 'What?'
"I was expecting you to do that, Kakashi-san. The sharingan is powerful, true, but- Daiboushi Kuchiku!"
At this Kakashi saw a flash of red in the hole of his opponents mask, then staggered and fell on one knee clutching his left eye with his hands.
"ARRRGGGHHHH!" Kakashi cried in agony as intense pain shit through his left sharingan eye.
"-what can you do if you can't use it?" he finished laughing maniacally…

Hijutsu: Giji Shijou Bakuha roughly translates to 'Secret Technique: False Body Explosion'
Daiboushi Kuchiku means 'Great Eye Destruction'
