Ino looked at the idiot. He still seemed tired from his fight with Neji. This would be easy. She made a simple clone then made it perform a trapping earth jutsu. Mud came up and snaked around him. She preformed her handsigns and entered into his mind.

She searched his mind. In the walls she could see horrible memories. She couldn't believe how badly he was treated. She also saw some doubt that he had about Sakura. Finally she found a cage. Inside she saw a pair of crimson eyes. They fell onto her.

"Who are you?"

"Um…Yamanka Ino," Ino answered the booming voice.

"Yamanka, Huh? You must be the brats second opponent…you came in her for a weakness. No, you came in here to make him forfeit; I can't let you do that!"

An extremely powerful chakra that matched the eyes knocked her back. She hit a wall. She saw a creepy fox face behind the bars before passing out. Ino's mind was forced back into her body. The clone disappeared and the mud melted back into the ground. "Winner, Uzimaki Naruto," the guy said after Ino didn't get up. She awoke on a bench. Everyone else was out cold. She stood a bit wobbly. She took off, feeling a huge chakra.

By the time she got there all she could see was Sakura up in a tree, Sasuke was up there too, and Naruto and Gaara unconscious on the floor. Well Gaara was being taken away by his siblings. Sakura was busy over Sasuke, begging him to wake up. She saw some Anbu members helping Naruto. She decided to go to Naruto. By the looks of it he was the one who really fought Gaara. Her 'training buddy' could wait.

Couple weeks latter, I know, I looked it up

Ino walked around the hospital. She went up to the roof for some fresh air. The entire place smelled like cleaner. What she saw was a ton of Narutos. They were being demolished one by one by Sasuke. Across the roof she saw Sakura standing in the opposite doorway. She watched in shock as he and Naruto started to gather Chakra into their palms. Sakura suddenly started running forward screaming. But it was Kakashi who stopped them from killing Sakura; instead the attacks hit different water tanks. Kakashi soon took Sasuke away. Ino glanced at Sakura. She was on her knees and looked really sad.

Ino swallowed hard and turned, remembering the harsh words she told her former friend not two months ago. She started off. Wanting to escape more than anything. She body flickered to her house and went out on the roof. The sky was slowly turning a pinkish-orange. The entire thing made her fell lousier. She stood and went for a walk. She walked and walked…and walked. It was deep into the night. She knew her father would be upset if she stayed out really late. She sighed.

Ino looked up into the sky. It was pretty dark considering it was a new moon. She numbly traced out patterns in the stars mentally, totally oblivious to the world around her. She counted three different patterns before sensing someone getting closer. Ino came back to reality. There was the Uchiha Avenger in the flesh. WHAT AN HONOR! (snicker)

Ino spotted the backpack hanging on his shoulders. "You're leaving, aren't you?"

"Yes I am…are you going to stop me?" Sasuke answered, showing no emotion. "No, I'm not going to stop you…but what I want to know is what are you going to do after you kill your brother, I mean if you continue out the gates you'll be officially ranked as a missing nin and you won't be able to return. Are you just going to let that snake keep your body?" Ino mirrored his expression. Her eyes looked behind him where Sakura was lying unconscious on a bench.

"No, I'm still leaving though," Sasuke walked past her and stopped. "Ino…I want to know if-" "What am I on twenty questions now?" she asked it oh so innocently but the words fell like acid. She started walking in the other direction.

She stopped when a pair of pale arms encircled her waist pulling her back into the embrace of the raven haired boy. His breath was warm on her neck as he spoke.

"You should hate me, but…you don't, do you?" his voice was like ice. Her eyes stayed on the ground. "I don't know," her voice sounded spaced out. His lips were close to her neck. She felt a sharp pain in her neck. Her vision faded. Sasuke took the blonde back to her house and left her on the roof. Then he left.

THREE YEARS LATER

Ino pulled her ANBU mask over her face. She had excelled in the ranks. Going quickly from genin, to chunin, to Anbu interrogator.
