"MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE"
Unexpected
It's been three days since they left Kohana and the group has reached the border of the Sand Country.
Sakura, Naruto, and Sasuke stopped at the exit of the forest. Looking through the wide open space of the Sand Country, it was nothing but dessert.
"Wow, good thing we restocked our water supply from the last village." Naruto crouch down with a hand on his forehead, "Damn, it's hot…"
Sakura and Sasuke sighed.
"Better gear for the heat Naruto," Sakura instructed, "I don't want to hear you whine about being hot…"
Naruto grunt but did what he was told. Sakura was the only female he ever listened to beside Hinata and Tsunade that is.
"It's going to be a day and a half to get to the sand but I believe that 'they' aren't going to let us reach it…" Sasuke slightly turned his head to the forest, "its not smart trying on taken us on…"
Sakura and Naruto turned just in time to see shadows of movements in the forest but neither of them made any reaction to it.
"Come on out," Naruto said angrily, "We all know your there. You've been following us since we left Kaho Village."
"Let's get this over with."
They prepared for battle. Sakura took the stance between Sasuke and Naruto an even foot away from them. In an instant, the shadows jumped out the forest towards the trio. Sakura sighed as she tapped her heel, creating a massive crack in the ground about 10 feet toward the forest and tap her foot, creating a solid wall of rocks of 80 feet, the Doton Doryuuheki.
Six shadows have been caught between the rocks and instantly died. Few attack from the left and right which Sasuke and Naruto took action to attack. Kunai against kunai as they moved in full speed but it wasn't enough to out run the two Kohana boys.
Sakura quickly made hand seals when she was attack on all sides even above and ground.
"Henge no Jutsu!" Sakura calmly said.
Six attackers stabbed Sakura but suddenly turned into hundreds of pink petals. Quickly as she disappeared, Sakura reappeared behind the on one on left and took him out first taken 2 others with him.
"You guys have picked the wrong group to play with," Sakura used her speed to get behind the other men and took them out as well, "It's not wise to mess with the Sanins of Kohana…"
Once she was finished. Sakura turned to see that Sasuke have used his Chidori and Naruto his Shadow Clones.
It took a few second later that their enemies were defeated. They have pilled their bodies, counting, there were 28 attackers.
"Damn, what the hell…" Naruto frowned at the headband of the attackers, "Sound, it's getting old. I swear they should just give it up."
Sasuke frowned as well and then used his Chidori once more to burn the dead corps before them.
"They can't accept defeat and that Orichimaru have been defeated." Sasuke deep sighed, "Even in death, he still hunts me in my sleep…"
Sakura patted his back. "You're not alone. He cannot have you."
Naruto grinned and nodded, "That's right, they have to get pass me to get to you!"
Sasuke smirked, "Yeah, all they have to do is distract you with a cup of Ichiraku noodle then I have to stand up for my self."
"Hey! That's uncalled for Sasuke!" Naruto pointed at him, "Ichiraku noodle is to die for!"
"Then I'm totally doomed…" Sasuke teased.
Sakura giggled and shook her head, "Come on you two, and let's get going…"
With that said, they began their journey in the sand. They weren't even far from the forest when Naruto snorted and frowned.
"They're very persistent aren't they…?" Naruto sighed, "They watched their comrades die before their eyes without any help from them…"
"They were just distraction," Sakura said, "I saw a group passed by towards the dessert when I was attacked."
"They're trying very hard aren't they," Naruto snickered, "What are they going to gain from this? Don't they already know who they are dealing with?"
"I don't think they're worried about who they are fighting at Naruto," Sasuke pointed out, "Think about it very hard, idiot…"
Naruto frowned as he thought of the solution then his eyes widen, "The package for Gaara?"
Sakura and Sasuke nodded.
"But what would they want with it?" Naruto asked, "I mean, Tsunade-obaasan didn't say anything about it being important right?"
"That's true Naruto but still," Sakura answered softly, "It's for the Kazekage of the Sand. That's enough reason for them to pursue us."
"Beside, in about 15mins they are going to attack again…"
"The group behind us separated…." Sasuke said, "Fifteen on our left and twenty on the right…"
Sakura suddenly stopped in her tracks, "Let them be…"
Naruto and Sasuke stopped as well to look at her. Sakura had a devilish smile on her face and a glint of mischievousness in her eyes. The boys smiled, they know their girl well, and she has a plan.
"Boys, let's play cat and mouse…" Sakura have reached for her katana, "Let's show them what we really are…"
Naruto cracked his knuckles and chuckled evilly as Sasuke activated his sharingan.
"Go…" Sakura said softly.
With that, they all vanished in different directions. Miles apart, far away and whoever was listening to the wind would have heard screams of death. Three young adults with power stand before their prey with their cloths covered with blood but not their own. As a few miles away from them a group of shadows witness the death of their comrades.
"What horrific sight…" the man has put down his binoculars, "I have never seen such death in many years of my life and by the hands of such young adults…"
"They are Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha, and Sakura Haruno…" the 2nd man said with fear in his voice, "They are the ex-students of Copy Nin Kakashi Hatake…"
The first man stood up from where he was hiding, "Such power, they couldn't have inherited them from Kakashi alone…."
"We must defeat them at any cost!"
"But sir, there are more of them than you thought…" the 3rd man explained, "Kohana Village having eight others who are just as skillful as these three…"
"And with the 5th Hokage Tsunade ruling, and her partner in crime Jiraiya. How are we going to keep this up?"
"Sir, with all due respect." A 4th man appeared, "We just lost so many men in a short period of time. These kids are dangerous than they appeared to be and…"
"Silence! We will continue as plan!" the man swore under his breath, "We will get our hands on that package if it's the last thing I do!"
With that, they vanished.
"Aw, man!" Naruto groaned as they met up again, "My god damn cloths are bloody, they were really trying to get to me…"
Sakura frowned at her cloths as well, "They were trying to 'play' with me like I'm sort of whore."
Sasuke and Naruto eyed her then laugh.
"Bet they got a beating on that one," Sasuke chuckled, "They shouldn't underestimate the Kohana Konichis, they end up dead."
Naruto grinned, "Did you hear what happened to the group of bandits that cornered Kiba's group?"
They have begun walking again, not caring about their bloody cloths at that moment.
"One of those jackasses tried to touch my Hinata," Naruto began to sneer with hate, "I would have turned them into barbeques and feed them to the dogs if I was there…"
"Damn those jerks trying to assault my Hinata… why I…."
"Naruto, tell your story…." Sasuke rolled his eyes.
Naruto blinked then snapped back to normal, "Oh yeah, anyway, one of them wanted to do 'things' to Hinata-chan than made Kiba and Shino very angry but before they could make their move… BOOM! Hinata-chan beat the crapped out of them all!"
Naruto snickered proudly, "I heard from Kiba that they just stood and watched while Hinata took out her frustration on them and it only took her 2 minutes to take out 15 people on her own."
"I'm so proud of her! Did you know that I bought her a necklace than was made with pearls? It matches her eyes… and last week I took her out for dinner after her mission, she looked so cute! And, and, and…"
Naruto blabbered on, Sasuke and Sakura sighed deeply as he continued praising about Hinata's journey and such. Sasuke got annoyed and smacked him at the back of his head that created another silly argument to a bloody fight.
Sakura had to pull them apart and smack them both to shut them up.
'Sometimes, they are such troublesome,' she thought to her self, 'Idiots…'
Naruto and Sasuke were walking on either side of her. They were silent; Naruto had a grin on his face while Sasuke's expressions remain cool and undisturbed.
'But, they are my idiots….'
As she looked up to the sky, she have watched the sun been covered by the thick clouds. It cooled their journey just a little and the heat wasn't as bad that time of month but the dessert still holds a major heating disorder either way.
'Kakashi, I wish you were here with me…' Sakura silently prayed, 'Please, come home safely to me…"
They continued their journey to the Village of Sand in silence but broken off by Naruto clumsily tripped and landed on his face that earned him a laugh from both his teammates.
Snow Country was blazing with snow storm that Kakashi and his company have no choice but take shelter at the Shore Village near the port.
"Damn, it's going to take us at least a week now to get to the Snow Village." The merchant sighed, "I just hope that the storm pass by tomorrow…"
"I wish to get this over so I can go back to my family…."
Kakashi was looking out the window and looked at him, "You have a family?"
The merchant blinked and then smiled, "Why yes, I do!"
Laughing, he rubbed the back of his head, "I've been married for 5 years now. Sari and I have 2 children, a boy and a girl. Tome is 3yrs old and Shinna is 1 years old."
"That's right; we did not properly introduced our selves didn't we?" the merchant eyes lit up, "My name is Takoshi Nato, 15 years since I began being a merchant but I enjoy being a husband and father most."
"After I return to my village, I'm going to retire and be a farmer so I can properly support my family."
Kakashi eyed him, "Your retiring after this journey?"
Takoshi nodded, "My Sari dislikes my way of life, getting into trouble and such. She didn't like the way I put my self in danger, she's a good wife and I love her so. So, I'm finishing my merchant carrier after this journey."
"I thank you Kakashi-san…"
Kakashi smiled under his mask, "Don't worry about it."
Takoshi then nodded and looked outside the window, he smiled.
"The man who has given me these items was a very good friend of mine. He was honorable but only one fault that cause him to be exiled, he didn't mention it to me thou but he talks about his family a lot."
Takoshi took a sip of his tea, "A ninja with a talent for jewelry. He created the rings that my wife and I wore in the wedding. When he passed away, I can only do him this favor."
Kakashi nodded, "I understand, I'll get you to the Snow Village and back to your family safely…"
They were remained silent through out the night and then retire to their rented rooms. Kakashi made certain that no one in the Inn was an enemy of thief before going to bed but kept his senses open just incase.
He took out the picture of Sakura and smiled softly.
"It's almost over…" he said softly, "It's almost over…"
Kakashi placed the image back on his pocket near his heart and closed his eyes. A moment later, he has fallen as sleep.
"Are you serious?" Naruto eyed Sasuke, "Can't be, we torn them apart! They are still after us?"
Sasuke nodded as his Sharingan was focus a few miles north east from where they were standing.
"It looks like they are after the package," Sakura sighed, "This is getting annoying…"
"Let me go beat them up," Naruto itched, "Please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please…."
Sasuke smacked him for the fiftieth times that day, "Shut up, I'm trying to think…"
Sakura patted Naruto's head and shook her head, "Don't be hasty, your just going to get hurt and I'm not about to carry you all the way to Sand Village."
"What would Hinata thinks if she heard you got hurt?"
Naruto frowned then look ashamed, the last thing he wants is to get his precious girlfriend upset because of his stupidity.
Sakura took the hint and smiled, "That's my boy…"
"So, Sasuke, what do you think?"
Sasuke was silent but then gasped and eyes widen. Naruto and Sakura looked at him.
"This is unexpected, these guys are insane…" Sasuke frowned and became angry, "They're just a band of bandits that grouped together…"
"Guys, I don't think we are going to get any sleep tonight…"
Sakura and Naruto have sensed it before it ever accord. It was part of their training. They have sensed so many chackra's they were shocked as well.
"What the hell…" Naruto breathed out, "How many are there…."
Sasuke frowned as he used his Sharingan again then froze. Sakura and Naruto noticed this that they took their stance. The shadows busted out from the ground around them and began circling.
"Damn, they must be desperate to have this package…" Sasuke began to chuckle, "What a number of bandits…"
Sakura eyed him, "How many are their Sasuke?"
Sasuke grinned mischievously, "Let's just say that each of us must kill 250 each…"
Naruto's eyes widen with shock. Sakura's brain did the math.
"Oh my god," she breathes out, "750 dumb asses bandits…"
Naruto began to get angry, "Ok, that's it! No more Mr. Nice-Guy! I'm finishing this now!"
The other two agreed.
"They like surprises. So, let's give them the unexpected surprise guys. Once we finish, let's give their boss a visit."
With that, the next battle began. Screams of terror and death roam the air of the dessert than even the heaven roared from the sight. Like the terror of the Armageddon have been played out.
