AUTHOR'S NOTE: SORRY I TOOK SO LONG!! I was trying to get some good action with the fighting scene that is going to happen in this chapter…………soo I like to thank everyone for their reviews!! I love you all and thank you so much for reading the story!!! SOOOO now on with the story!!!!
----------------------------------------------
Sakura finally snapped and charged at the two bimbotic wenches that stood in front of her.
'HOW DARE THEY! MAKE THEM PAY!'
Sakura screamed and pulled her fists back and was about to punch both the girls at once but River stepped between the three girls and caught Sakura's fists with ease.
"Sakura-San. Don't use all your energy just to make a point that is what a battle is for." River said in a surprisingly soft tone, looking deep into her blazing emerald eyes. How much he wanted to scold his two ditzy teammates. But he couldn't, he doesn't hit girls ,unless in battle, and he didn't feel like explaining why he attacked them. To much work.
Sakura wrenched her fists out of River's hands and glared at the two girls behind him.
"You two have nothing better to do than pick on me, do you? Why?!"
Alli and Kimiko looked at Sakura with evil grins,
"Because………your easy……"
"To pick on Sakura." Kimiko finished
'Wait if Kimiko and Alli and River are just like the little kids in our dreams why isn't that Sophie chick here to?'
'I don't know……how about we ask them'
'YEAH! Just to whip those sickening smirks off their hideous faces!'
Sakura smirked at them.
'What is she thinking?' thought the girls fearingly
'Sakura-Chan?'
'Girls how annoying, they get worked up over nothing.'
'Sakura……please think your actions threw.'
Everyone watched the three girls with anticipation. The suspension was killing them!
"Is this why Sophie-Chan left your sorry butts? Because you were also jealous of her to? Is that it?"
Sakura smirked again. Alli and Kimiko's reaction was exactly what she wanted. Little did she know her statement got Hiroshi, Kakashi, River, Naruto, and surprisingly Sasuke to also be shocked.
'How does Sakura remember her? This isn't good.' Thought Hiroshi
'So Sakura-Chan remembers some things here in Cloud?! YES!' River thought
"H-H-How d-d-do y-y-you k-k-know h-h-her?" Alli asked, her body shaking purely from shock.
"This is all a bluff! You don't know us so stop tying to be all cool in front of everyone!"
River and Sasuke knew exactly what Kimiko was saying so they both simultaneously smacked their heads.
'Great more fan-girls here to?!' Sasuke thought bitterly.
Sakura saw how she scared the two girls in front of her and suddenly her anger slipped away.
"How would I be bluffing? Do I have a reason to be? Do you really think that I could of pulled a random name out of my ass, that has the same name as someone you know?" Sakura asked in barely audible whisper.
'What HAPPENED TO THE FIRE?!'
'The gasoline tank is empty. I'm sorry but…I cant see people being scared and knowing that I caused it would make me so disgusted of myself.'
'Your too soft! That's going to kill us one day.'
Sakura smiled at he inner-self's comment.
"Look Alli-Chan………She really is a freak. No one smiles to themselves for some unknown reason."
"(laughs at Sakura) Your right."
River was trying to compose himself. He couldn't slip and risk Sakura to remember things that she was suppose to forget. No matter how much he truly wanted her to remember him, and their close friendship. It would make his father very displeased and he didn't want that.
Sasuke and Naruto were standing there watching Sakura go threw more mood swings than a pregnant lady even thinks of doing.
Kakashi and Hiroshi watched the exchange with growing interest.
'Does Sakura really remember her past? That we truly believed that we got rid of long ago?'
'Sakura is right. She really does treat her alter-ego like a live person. Considering how many times her eyes changed from focus to dazed during this whole thing.'
"You girls can say what you want…… Let's just……end this uncalled for fight." Sakura said in the familiar polite voice.
Alli and Kimiko looked at the girl before them, with hatred and confusion.
'You don't know how much I've been waiting to beat the snot out of you. Always having River-Kun's attention, even though you don't see it both of your teammates care for you too. You have it all. I cant wait till I can pull it out from underneath you!'
'Sakura is so weird. First she is all up in my face and beastly. Next moment she's some polite innocent little girl. What the Fuck?' (AN: Kimiko's thoughts came first then Alli's. Just so I don't confuse you.)
Hiroshi saw that fight was over and started to announced what was going to happen during these series of fights.
"Ok. Now that, that is settled. I will say who will go against who. Also River, Alli, and Kimiko……your sensei should be here in a few……"
Hiroshi was interrupted when the door to started to open. In view was……RAIN?!
"Auntie Rain?! I didn't know you were their Sensei! Or a sensei in general."
Rain walked up to Sakura and hugged her tight. Then she looked at Kakashi, Sasuke, and Naruto and smiled at them.
"Well Sakura-Chan……you never asked." Rain said with a smile. Then Rain turned to Hiroshi and her team with a apologetic smile.
"Sorry, Hiroshi-Sama, there was an issue I had to attend to. And River, Alli, and Kimiko……I will treat you all for ice-cream since I came late."
'Imagine if Kakashi-Sensei would give us ice-cream every time he was late! We would be swimming in cie-cream!' thought Naruto
"Naruto. Don't get any idea's that would never happen." Kakashi said, it was like he read Naruto's mind.
"Its ok Rain-Sensei." Alli, Kimiko, and River said.
Hiroshi just shook his head. How she got to where she was a mystery to him.
"Its ok Rain. Just stand with you team and listen up……OK like I said, I'm choosing who you are going to be fighting. No rules, well maybe a few. But they are minor. ONE: You can give up when you want while you are fighting. TWO: No cheap shots! THREE: Listen, when I say STOP YOU WILL STOP! Got it?"
Seeing everyone nod their heads he continued.
"First please, people who are not going to be fighting you must go up to the balcony and stay there. If any of you get in the way of the battle the opposite team will get the victory. The first match is………NARUTO V.S. …………ALLI!"
"YEAH! Time to show that girl I'm not useless! Even if she is cute!"
With that said everyone else went up to the balcony. But Sakura went up to Naruto to tell him something.
"Naruto listen, this girl is just like you……so I wouldn't second judge her." Sakura said in a whisper. "Here take these rocks. Use them when you need to."
Before Naruto could tell Sakura she had nothing to worry about, she ran up to the balcony.
"DON'T WORY SAKURA-CHAN! I CAN BEAT HER! BELIEVE IT!"
Sakura just giggled and waved at Naruto.
"This should be a interesting battle, huh Kakashi-San?"
"Yes it should. And Rain……why didn't you have your country's headband on?"
Rain looked at him with a confused look but then smiled at him.
"What are you talking about? I always have it on me!" Rain lifted up her sleeve to her long sleeve baby blue shirt to show him that she had her headband around her shoulder. "Normally I wear a tank top but it has been not the right time to wear tank tops so I'm stuck wearing long sleeves."
Kakashi had a huge sweat drop in the back of his head but nodded anyway.
"OK! BATTLE 1 WILL BEGIN! Naruto V.S. Alli! Ready!...Set!!!!!!...GO!"
Once Hiroshi shouted go Alli disappeared from sight. Naruto saw this and went into a defense position.
'How stupid. He cant even tell where Alli-Chan is!' thought Kimiko
'How stupid! Does he not no anything? Oh Well easy win for me!'
Naruto looked around trying to find any trace of Alli. Not waiting any longer Naruto took out as much kunai's as he could hold.
"Sorry Alli! But I'm gonna WIN!"
Naruto put his foot down and with one swift movement he spin around………fast!
'What?! I cant even keep track of where the front is!'
Then Naruto threw all the kunai's as he went around in the dizzying circle.
Alli, who was still trying to find where the front of the attack, got hit with the kunais. Making her be seen out in the open again.
"HA! TOLD YOU!" Naruto cheered as his attack stopped and Alli was pinned against the wall.
Alli smirked. "Who said I was done?! I'm just getting started!"
With that Alli got out of Naruto's trap just as fast as she got into it.
Alli charged at Naruto with a set of her own kunai. Naruto tried to fish out more kunai but didn't have any left from his previous attack so he took out the four rocks Sakura gave him and made a few hand seals. Within a few seconds the rocks were now kunai. Just in time too because Alli was now next to Naruto and he blocked the attack with his freshly made kunais. Metal clashed against metal.
----The other people not fighting—
"How did Naruto-San make those rocks become kunai?" River asked, mostly to himself than to anyone else.
Sakura saw the look on Kimiko's face and grinned.
"That's Naruto for you! Full of surprises!"
"Well Alli-Chan is full of them to……watch." Kimiko pointed out.
-------The Fight----
"Lets make this fight more interesting!"
Alli stopped launching at Naruto and did a back flip to get some space between her and Naruto.
'Cloud, bird, land, rat……'
"Cloud Capture Jutsu!" Alli yelled.
Naruto froze, waiting for the jutsu, "Bring it on! I'm not afraid!"
Just as he said it a huge gust of clouds started to form around Naruto, making him not able to see. Soon rats started to hold Naruto down.
"What is going on?!"
"Just watch!"
And in a blink of an eye Naruto started to be attacked by birds. But theses birds weren't ordinary birds, they were oversized and were moving very fast and the force of their strikes were painful. Causing Naruto to get serious injuries.
----Balcony------
'I knew that Alli-Chan wouldn't disappoint me! She even got Sakura to shut her trap and stare in worry' Thought Kimiko
'Dobe. What a loser.'
'Oh Naruto……At least you didn't fully make a fool out of yourself. It seems that you and Sakura have made pretty good partners when training together.'
'That is Alli's favorite move. Naruto-San will not last long.' Thought River sadly, he really wanted this blonde boy to knock some sense into Alli for him, since he couldn't do it himself.
'Poor Sakura-Chan's friend……But he has a lot of guts……just like my little niece over here.'
'Come ON NARUTO! BEAT THAT GIRL UP!'
'YEAH! SONT LOOSE TO SOME WITCHY GIRL LIKE HER!'
-----Back to the fight----
'Come on! Why hasn't he given up yet? The impact of the birds are so harsh on ones body he should of broke by now!'
'Just a few more birds…………NOW!!"
Naruto moved his hands, despite the painful sensation that was sent threw out his body when he moved his hands. 'Sakura-Chan was right……Don't go easy on her.' He them formed the familiar seals that were used when him and Sakura were trying out the training field technique.
"Element Water and Sky Training Field Technique Part 1!"
Hiroshi jaws dropped down to the ground. 'How does this kid know this technique?! How interesting!'
The birds and the whole jutsu in general stopped dead. A few minutes later nothing happened.
"WHAT WAS THAT?!" Alli said trying to stifle her laugh but failed in her attempt.
To bad for Alli because all of a sudden the ground started to crack moving straight to her feet and tree branches wrapped around her feet. Making it hard for her to move fast or even move at all.
'What the fuck?'
Then wind started to blow, and fast. Seeing as the strong wind was distracting to Alli, Naruto took this time to do his oh so favorite jutsu, "Shadow clone Jutsu." And used the wind to come in and out of the tornado to punch and kick Alli. Alli dodged it, but got nicked by a punch here and there because of the branches that were immobilizing her. Soon Alli was slowing down and Naruto landed a big punch on her. Sending her 20 feet back, with the jutsu severing its purpose it ended.
Alli not giving up got right to her feet.
"I-Is t-t-that a-all y-y-you g-g-got?" Alli said, with hurt evident in her voice. Holding her stomach to express where she was hurting.
Again she charged at Naruto, ignoring the pain, and they exchanged a few more punches and kicks between each other. Both of their energy depleting. Alli's was depleting faster than Naruto's, but she wouldn't give up.
"Hope you like water, blonde boy!" Alli said as she jumped back and did a few hand seals.
------People in the balcony-----
'Alli-Chan! That's what I'm talking about!'
'OH NO! NARUTO!'
'Don't worry, he knows the best thing against water REMEMBER?!!'
'Dobe. But if the Dobe is having this much trouble with the weakest one……then I wonder what the other two are going to be like……Sakura will not have a chance in hell with any of them. So Naruto better win this……And I KNOW I'M GOING TO.'
----Naruto and Alli------
"Water element! BLAST! JUTSU!"
The water in the side pools started to rise and fuse together creating a huge wave.
"Hope you like to swim!"
With that Alli flung the water towards Naruto. It might look like just regular wave but it had strength behind it too.
'Ready NARUTO! Time to make sure that Sakura-Chan's training not go to waist!'
As THE HUGE wave came at Naruto he conjured up his own jutsu. Doing the hand seals he stuck his feet into the ground so he wouldn't fly away. Then he waited until the wave came at him.
'I may have little chakra left but Sakura-Chan said that all I have to do is make a tiny spark and the water will do the rest! Here goes nothing!'
'He wont know what hit him!'
Lets just say that Alli jinxed herself because when the wave was over Naruto and engulfed him a huge yellow bolt erupted.
'WHAT?!'
There was a huge bubble of electricity around Naruto, serving as a protected shield from the water.
"WHAT?! HOW?!"
"Duh! Water conducts electricity! So now……I can send it right back at you."
Sure enough, that's what he did, but Alli avoided the attack.
"Are you stupid? I created it. I know how to use it."
"I know."
"Then why did you send it………?!"
The electric bubble disappeared and the ground under her cracked open revealing a Naruto Clone. The clone punched Alli in the chin sending her flying. Then the real Naruto used his clone as leverage to kick Alli down back to the ground, but she caught his leg.
"If I'm going down then so are you!"
Naruto looked Alli straight in the eye. "This is for mocking Sakura-Chan!" Alli could see all the anger built up in his eyes.
With that Naruto had his other leg and used her grip as more leverage to kick her in the stomach even harder than he planed to with his original leg. Sending her into the ground. Causing a crater.
Hiroshi saw no other movement from the now hole in the ground and ended the match.
"The match is over. The winner is Naruto!"
"See! I told you I would win!"
Sakura jumped off the balcony and ran to hug her new found "friend" for his awesome win!
Kimiko and River ran over to Alli to see if she was ok.
"You did awesome Naruto!"
"Thanks Sakura-Chan!"
----With River, Kimiko, and Alli---
"Alli-Chan are you ok?" Kimiko called down from the top of the crater.
"Y-Yeah I'm f-f-fine. I didn't think that kid could kick so hard."
"So my calculation is correct. Naruto-San is as powerful as I thought……"
Kimiko looked at River "What was that River-Kun?" She said with in a sickening sweet voice.
"Nothing." He said to her and jumped down into the hole to get Alli. Alli blushed a bright red blush since River was carrying her out of the hole. Kimiko gave Alli a glare but Alli ignored it.
Naruto and Sakura were at the balcony before the other three and they started to talk to Rain.
"Naruto your fight was very exciting. You are even stronger than I thought you were when I first met you."
Naruto blushed at the older woman's comment. But then something dawned on him.
"Hey…umm…"
"Just call me Rain."
"Yeah……umm……Rain what is your last name anyway? You never told us your last name."
'So he wants to know my last name huh? Oh well It couldn't hurt.'
"My last name is Sentare."
Kakashi's mouth dropped wide open, even thought no one could see it. He looked right at Sakura.
'So she is half Sentare? Oh well, that is different. Does any of them know who the Sentare are?'
"Who are they." Sasuke asked. He could sense Kakashi's surprise and not much surprised him. He had to figure out what made him so surprised.
'I guess not.'
"Well……the Sentare was once a secret clan that people used to take out personal problems and they were ninja of course. Like a group of spies I guess you could say. No one really knew who was a Sentare because we were very secretive about it. Certain clans like the Uchihas or Hyugas are our allies. As generations went on………our clan has sneaked under radar……not many people remember who we are or what we did. But that is what makes the world go 'round."
Naruto just stood there with his eyes bulging out of his head. Sasuke was silent as ever, but so much was going through his head.
'The Uchiha clan never talked about this other clan. They must have been a shame of them. If this is Sakura's aunt then they aren't really powerful because Sakura isn't strong at all.'
Before Naruto could ask any other questions River, Kimiko, and Alli came back. Alli was looked like she just came out of a tornado.
Kimiko looked directly at Sakura. Revenge and anger swirling in her sky blue eyes.
"I hope I battle you……because I can't wait to kick your ass. I can take my anger out on you. My human punching bag! I think I like the ring to that." Kimiko smiled evilly.
River, Alli, Rain, Naruto, Kakashi, and Sasuke looked at her like she was insane. Sakura on the other hand just stared at her showing that she didn't scare her.
Hiroshi looked up to see Kimiko yelling at Sakura.
'Why does she always fight with people. Especially girls? Maybe I should pair them up to battle. I have a feeling that they would be even more entertaining than Naruto and Alli.'
Hiroshi made his way up to the injured people. Naruto had many cuts and bruises around his face, and a injury in his stomach. Although it wasn't very deep. Calling a medic-nin in they healed Naruto. Then he moved to Alli. Alli had deeper cuts throughout her body and she was limping. The fall from the sky must of gave her an sprain or a broken ankle. The medic-nin also healed her.
With that done he moved back down to where the next battle would go. They moved to another battle field which was a grassy plan with rocks everywhere. With a river and a few trees to complete the forest look.
Kimiko grinned at this. 'This is my element. Who ever I get is going to get major damage done to their body.'
"Ok this is the next battle field. And for those not fighting you will have to stand next to the bamboo tree. Again same rules apply. So the next to fighters will be………………………………………………………………………………"
TO BE CONTINUED!!
AUHTORS NOTE!: I hate to leave you all on cliffhangers but I cant decide who is going to go up against Kimiko and River. And I also ran into another problem. I want Sakura to win and not tie, because she ties a lot in this story and in the original story……so I think I'm gonna have her win her battle. And I was thinking I don't want the Cloud to seem weak or bad so I'm thinking who ever is paired up wit River is going to tie. Just to make it far.. So that mite mean that I mite have Sasuke go up against River and have them both tie………but idk sooo why don't u ppl tell me wat u think I should do ) that would be sooo helpful!! And I just realized……I reread some of my chapters and saw some comsepts that I forgot or I got mixed up with……so once we are done with these fights then everything will be set straight.
REVIEW!!!! PLEASE AND THANKYOU!!!
