The two girls lay unconscious on the ground as Sakura stood over Akane with a shoe and Naruto over Hitomi with his large pack. By Hitomi lay a once-concealed Kunai knife, probably what she had used to conduct such a large amount of electricity. Kakashi looked down at the two before finally tending to Sasuke. Now he would rest comfortably in bed.

Naruto examined them closer now, since they weren't lashing back at anyone at the moment. The two were about as opposite in appearance as they were alike in behavior. Hitomi wore mostly blue, with a small tank top and baggy pants. Over the pants, she wore a tie-around skirt embroidered with the symbol of water. However, Akane was clad in red, with red tank top, pants, and gloves, with a black shrug and her hair band was embroidered with the symbol of fire. What was even more confusing was that Kakashi-sensei had identified them as both being from the Hidden Cloud Village, known for their lighting jutsu and had been destroyed when they broke a peace treaty with Konoha (or so he had heard).

When Kakashi had returned, Sakura was the first to bat him with questions. "How do you know they're from the Hidden Cloud Village? Why are they here? Weren't they destroyed years ago? WHAT IS GOING ON!?!?!?" It was quite clear she was frustrated, and underneath was hidden question of whether or not Sasuke would be alright.

Chuckling, Kakashi just shook his head. "One at a time, Sakura. And, unfortunately, I can only answer one of those questions. I can tell they're from the Hidden Cloud Village simply from the way they use the lightning jutsu. It's quite clear what we saw was only a sample of what they're capable of. And while we're not sure of why they're here, I do believe they are here on peaceful terms. Though, it would be wise not to aggravate them."

Naruto nodded with a "hmph" and a still-confused face. They didn't seem all that strong to him. "I bet I could take 'em on any day," he whispered to himself as he followed Kakashi and Sakura.

"Are you sure we should just leave them there on the ground, Sensei?" Sakura asked, looking back at the two girls. "If they're here on peaceful terms like you said, wouldn't it be nice to get them somewhere comfortable?"

Kakashi simply raised a finger and said pointedly, "Death be to those who stick their hands in the mouth of a rabid dog."

Naruto and Sakura stopped walking for a moment, lost in confusion. "…the hell?" slipped out of Naruto's mouth and they continued walking.

Meanwhile, Jiraiya was currently being reprimanded by several parents over his unwise decision to allow such dangerous people into the village. None of them knew from where they came, nor did they really wish to find out.

"HOW COULD YOU JUST LET THEM WALTZ RIGHT IN!?" screamed one over a rather annoyed Chouji.

"And did you SEE that commotion by the Uchiha homes?" shouted another over an embarrassed Shikamaru.

"Okay, okay. I made a mistake, but they-"

"Darn RIGHT you made a mistake!" said Ino's father. "Now, maybe you should just walk over a cliff, you perverted 'tard!"

"WHAT is going ON!?" shouted an infuriated Kakashi. "Don't get angry at Jiraiya for this. He couldn't have known that these girls would be such a hassle and possible danger to Konoha. Now, I have it that these girls are here on peaceful terms. The commotion you saw was just a misunderstanding and I'm doubtful that another will happen."

"Easy for you to say, Kakashi. You're always so cool about everything," said Lee's father, angry that once again it was KAKASHI that came to the rescue and not him.

"Please, I know you're all u-"

"Don't 'please' us! Those are clearly high-level ninja! How can you expect us to just let our children continue here with out being killed. Peaceful terms or no, I won't have it."

"You're right. They shouldn't have to walk in their own home with fear. That's why we should welcome them in a friendly manner and not aggravate them."

"ARE YOU KIDDING!?"

"No."

"DAD! SHUT UP!" screamed Shikamaru, finally. It was so troublesome to have parents that did nothing but worry. They would be fine. And if not, then oh well. At least he wouldn't have to take any more exams. He and his team left, the remaining group stunned at his outburst.

"Well, now that that's been resolved, how 'bout some Ramen on me!" Jiraiya offered, breaking the silence.

Akane grunted and she stood up, rubbing her head. "Owww…." Looking around, she realized that she and Hitomi had been knocked out for a while. Hitomi, now rising, had a large imprint on the side of her face from having fallen on the handle of a kunai knife. She rubbed at the spot, annoyed at the feel of it.

"Stupid people…Why didn't I just cut his head off?" she asked angrily.

"Because, like most people, you still know when something's too brash."

"Well, that didn't give them any right to hit me…my head really hurts!"

"Whatever, Hitomi. Let's just go find something to eat."

Sooo...sorry if this chapter is a little...weird (?). haha.. But, PLEASE give me comments. I feel stupid just writing and not getting much feedback! Oh well...I guess I'll just go kill everyone's favorite characters...haha.. just kidding! Seriously, though.

Anyway, yeah. This one was just a bunch of talking, and the ending was pretty lame, I know. I'll make up for it next update, I swear!
