Chapter 5
Naruto had a smile on his face as he slept soundly, holding a certain pink-haired girl in his arms.
Surprisingly, the girl also had a soft smile on her face (which would probably only last until she woke up).
Konan shook her head at the two and walked over to where she had put their bags, putting her blanket away.
She decided to wake them up, as they were already running behind schedule.
"Wake up, sleeping love birds! Let's go! We've got work to do!" she yelled at them, nudging them both with her feet.
Sakura was the first to react.
Her eyelids fluttered, as she attempted to stretch, only to realise, something (or in this case, someone) was holding her back.
She turned her head to see what (or who) it was, only to instantly discover a new shade of red on her face.
She smiled sweetly at- WHAM!
Naruto flew back into a tree for the third time in a week.
As he slid to the base of the tree, his eyelids flickered and he started to wake up.
"S-sakura-chan...what was that for...?" he asked sleepily.
Sakura, who's blush had already faded considerably, kicked Naruto in the shin as her reply and turned to Konan.
"Are we leaving now?" she asked the purple-haired girl, a hint of anger remaining in her voice.
Konan couldn't help a small smile as she answered Sakura.
"Actually...no"
"Wait, what?" asked Naruto, who had finally finished waking up.
"Well, for starters, we're only a half-day run from the enemies, secondly, we need to disguise you two" she continued.
"Sakura, you first. There's a river nearby- let's go. Naruto, you wait here" and with that, Konan took a hold of Sakura's arm and dragged her to the direction of the river.
Naruto sweatdropped, but did as he was told, plopping himself on the ground and waiting.
Meanwhile, Konan and Sakura had reached the river.
Sakura then noticed the bag Konan was carrying and watched as she rifled through it.
"No. Way." Sakura said adamantly.
Konan held up a packet of something.
"Yes, way" Konan replied.
It was hair dye. Black hair dye.
"No!" Sakura screamed as she was dragged closer to the river.
She loved her pink hair. It was her favourite thing about herself.
But there could be no reasoning with Konan.
Konan dunked Sakura's head under the water and began dying her hair.
Naruto heard Sakura screaming, and thought something was wrong.
He stood up and ran to the river side, only to see a purple-haired girl, and a black-haired girl.
He looked frantically for Sakura and then realised something.
He looked at the black-haired girl again.
She was wearing the same clothes Sakura had been wearing.
"Sakura...chan?" he wavered, unsure if it was really her.
"Naruto!" Konan screamed at him "I thought I told you to stay where you were!" Konan began pushing him away.
Sakura sweatdropped and edged slightly back from Konan.
Once Naruto had finally returned back to the clearing, Konan returned to her make over of Sakura.
This time, she pulled out a small box.
She stepped closer to Sakura and opened the box, so she could see what was inside.
Sakura immediately frowned, trying to figure out what was in the box.
That was when Konan picked the contents up and Sakura realised what they were.
"Blue contacts. Put them in" Konan knew now that asking wouldn't get Sakura to listen.
Sakura groaned, but figured she'd already changed her hair, and it's not like Konan would let her have a choice anyway.
She picked up the two contacts and carefully placed them on her eyes.
They made her eyes water, so she blinked a few times.
Konan stared for a few seconds...
Then she went through her bag again, making Sakura sweatdrop again.
She pulled out a pile of ninja clothing, and a forehead protector.
First, she handed Sakura the forehead protector.
It was a standard hidden village of the rain forehead protector, with a line scratched through the symbol.
She instructed Sakura to remove her leaf forehead protector and swap it with the rain one.
Once Sakura had done that (with much reluctance) Konan grabbed some light blue ninja clothes, that matched Sakura's new eye colour well.
They resembled Ino's somewhat (use your imagination) and- although she wouldn't say this to Konan- Sakura kind of liked them.
Moving behind a bush, she changed her clothes to the new ones.
Once she was finished, she stepped out from behind the bush.
Konan pulled out a mirror this time, from the seemimgly never ending bag.
"What do you think?" Konan asked her.
Actually...it wasn't that bad.
Even though Konan had destroyed her pink hair and her eyes were now blue, she couldn't hold a grudge against the girl.
At least she didn't look terrible or anything...
Konan placed the mirror back into the bag and closed it up again.
Without another word to Sakura, she trudged back to the clearing, to her new target...
Naruto.
