A/N: Ahahahah! Ahahahah! Ahahahahah! I swear, I can't stop laughing! I'm just finishing typing this at three in the morning and I'm currently riding on the RTA!(People are giving me weird looks since I'm laughing like a lunitic)I can't believe I escaped AGAIN even though there were people guarding my door.(They remembered me from the last time I escaped so they were making sure I didn't do it again) I tied some sheets together and used it as a rope to climb out a FOUR STORY WINDOW!!! LMAO!!! I also had an acomplis(Kid who's parent worked there) untie the rope I made out of sheets once I was safely on the ground and stuff it in a cabnit so nobody would know how I escaped! Then, just because I really didn't like the nurses who worked there, I left a note saying that I was somewhere in the hospital commiting suicide and that they were stank ugly bums! Oh my GOSH! This has got to be the craziest thing I've ever done! Ha! I told you I would escape!

Oh yeah! The poll's closed now so if you wanted to see the results you just gotta go to my profile!

Disclaimer: Hospitals are like crap...they're full of stank ugly bums...

Recap:

Team seven filled out the forms and went over to turn them in and get their scroll. They then proceeded to gate twelve. ''So...are we going to fight Orochimaru or are we going to avoid him?'' Naruto asked.

''Do you think we can beat him?'' Sakura asked.

''Of course we can, Sakura-chan! Teme beat him before so he can beat him again! Especially with our help!'' Sakura smiled and nodded in agreement while Sasuke stayed silent. They could tell something was up with the Uchiha. ''We...should avoid him...'' Sasuke mumbled.

''What for?'' Sakura and Naruto asked in unison. ''Well...if we don't...he could attack Naruto again.'' Sasuke replied. Sakura could tell there was more to it then that. ''Sasuke-kun...Naruto can take care of himself. What are you really worried about?'' Sasuke hesitated. ''C'mon Teme! You know you can tell us anything!'' Sasuke sighed and ran a hand through his hair. Before he had a chance to answer their gate opened and they could hear Anko shouting for them to start...

(Oh! This isn't exactly related to this chapter but it's important to the story! I just wanted to say that in the future when Sasuke killed Itachi, Itachi didn't tell him why he killed the clan...so yeah, Sasuke still hates him. Just thought you should know since I neglected to mention it earlier!)

What Changes...

Chapter 8: New plan!

Or at least it would have been new if they had an original...

A few minutes into the exam as they were jumping through the trees was when Naruto decided to remind them of their previous conversation.

''So Teme, why are you so worried about running into that weirdo homosexual anyway?'' Sasuke acted as if he hadn't heard the question and stayed silent. This only served to annoy the hyperactive ninja. Sasuke paused for a moment on a branch causing his teammates to stop as well. He looked up at the sun to see what time it is before reaching into his pocket and taking out a bottle. He opened it and tossed one of the pills from it inside his mouth. Naruto and Sakura gave him strange looks.

''Sasuke-kun...what are those?'' Sakura asked, wondering why in the world Sasuke would need to take pills.

''...Vitamins...'' Was his hesitant reply. This only caused his teammates to look more confused.

''Why the hell do you need to take vitamins?'' Naruto asked, a little angry his friend was being so secretive. Sasuke shifted uncomfortably before answering, ''To keep me awake...''

His teammates stared at him with equally deadpanned expressions before coming back to the world of reality. ''What do you mean to keep you awake...when was the last time you slept?'' Naruto asked, all previous anger now clouded over with worry. Sasuke hesitated before mumbling something they couldn't here.

''What did you say?'' Sakura and Naruto asked in unison.

''Since our mission escorting Tazuna.'' He mumbled a little louder, but still so soft they had to strain their ears to hear him. Vein's popped on both Sakura and Naruto's heads.

''WHAT THE HELL!? THAT WAS ALMOST A MONTH AGO!'' Sakura shouted as she grabbed Sasuke's shoulders and proceeded to shake the life out of him. ''How can you go a month without sleeping!? Shouldn't you have passed out from exhaustion!? Why didn't you tell someone!?''

Sasuke took hold of Sakura's wrists so she would stop shaking him because he was beginning to see spots. ''I didn't want to worry anyone.'' He mumbled. Naruto and Sakura looked at him like he was crazy.

''WERE WORRIED NOW!'' Naruto shouted. He calmed himself down a bit before asking, ''Why can't you sleep anymore? Your were like this during our last mission too.'' Sasuke opened his mouth to answer but bit his lip to stop himself. He couldn't tell them what was wrong. It would only worry them more. Naruto was about to demand an answer but they all froze when they sensed movement from not to far away. Sasuke visibly paled when he sensed the familiar chakra. He was hoping they wouldn't run into him...

All three of them hid themselves behind branches as they watched three ninja with grass forehead protectors come into the area. One they instantly recognized as Orochimaru disguised as a female. Naruto grinned in anticipation for a battle while Sakura had on a look of determination. Sasuke had a blank look. He wasn''t even looking at Orochimaru. He was just staring at the trees ahead of him as a million thoughts raced through his head. One of them being to grab his teammates and get as far away from Orochimaru as possible. He liked that one in particular. But he had to much pride to just run away like a coward.

They could hear talking coming from the ninja below them but they couldn't really make out what they were saying since they were too far away. Naruto turned to Sakura since was the tactical one of the group. But unfortunately she was drawing blanks. She didn't know much about Orochimaru that she could use to their advantage. The only one who could possibly know anything was Sasuke but he seemed to have fallen off the face of the earth.

Sasuke came back to back to his senses when he felt an odd sensation. He turned to look at the grass ninja to see that they were staring directly at Naruto, who didn't seem to notice. 'Naruto, you idiot! Move!'

'Huh?' Was Naruto's oh-so-intelligent reply.

'MOVE!' Naruto jumped off his branch and onto Sasuke's right before it blew up. Sakura jumped next to them. 'Are you okay Naruto?'

'Just peachy Sakura-chan!'

The three genin looked to the ground to see that one of the grass ninja had disappeared from sight. Unfortunately, it was Orochimaru who was gone. Before anybody could register what happened Sakura had been knocked out the tree by something gray and scaly and was plummeting to the ground. The boys had equal looks of relief when they saw Sakura 'poof' and what was left in her place was a log. When they turned back around to face their enemy Naruto almost jumped out of his skin when they came face-to-face with a giant snake. Sasuke, being used to giant snakes, only glared. Not at the reptile, but at the dirty bastard standing on top of it.

''Hello Sasuke-kun.'' Orochimaru said as he proceeded to peal off the female disguise. Naruto felt like tearing the him apart. Sasuke was just looking around until he pinpointed where Sakura was. He looked over to see that Orochimaru still hadn't noticed. He hoped it stayed that way.

Both ninja jumped out of the way as the snakes head came crashing down against the tree they were standing in. ''Hmm. Impressive...for genin.'' Orochildmolester mumbled. Out of nowhere, Sakura came falling from the branches above and firmly planted her foot on the back of Orochimaru's skull. Said bastard(I'm sorry, I just really don't like him)was only mildly surprised before grabbing Sakura's ankle and tossing her towards her teammates. She managed to land gracefully beside them.

''So what's our plan of action Sakura-chan?'' Naruto asked, hoping she had an idea.

''I don't know.'' Was her blunt reply. Naruto looked crestfallen before suddenly smiling widely. ''I know what we can do! We can just attack him head on!'' Sakura smacked him on the head. That had to be the stupidest idea he'd ever came up with.

Sasuke let out a deep sigh as he finally came to a conclusion. If he was ever going to tell his friends he figured now would be the best time.

''We have to get away from him. Now.''

Sakura and Naruto stopped their bickering to look at him in confusion. ''What for? We can beat him!'' Naruto stated in determination.

''I know that. But we can't fight him and come out unscathed. He is an S-class criminal.'' The other two continued to stare at him.

''Your...afraid of getting injured...?'' Sakura asked.

''No.''

''Then what do you mean by 'unscathed'?''

''I mean he could end up...''

''End up what?'' His teammates asked in unison.

''He could end up giving me the curse mark...and then I'll have to leave again.'' That was the unbelievably short version of it...but it was still the truth. Although he neglected to mention that with or without the mark he might still end up leaving.

It took his teammates a few seconds to process this new found information. When they did they shared identical expressions of fear. ''W-what do you mean you'd have to leave, Teme!? You could still stay even if you did have that mark!'' Naruto shouted. Sasuke looked of to the side and didn't answer.

Sakura only just then noticed that Orochipedophile had been pretty quiet during their conversation. She looked around to see that both he and the giant snake had disappeared. The hell? How on earth can a giant snake disappear without any of them noticing? ''Hey...where did Orochimaru go?''

Naruto and Sasuke looked over to her in confusion and then scanned the area. Sure enough, Orochiskank was nowhere in sight. ''I can't believe we didn't notice a GIANT SNAKE leave! And we're suppose to be at Anbu level...'' Naruto grumbled in disappointment. Sasuke scanned the area again. ''He's still here, I can feel his chakra.''

''So uh...what are we gonna do?'' Naruto wondered, scratching his head.

''I've got an idea!'' Sakura shouted out of the blue, startling Naruto. ''Orochimaru is going to attack during the third part of the exam, right?'' Her teammates nodded. ''So we can attack him there! And we can warn the Hokage so that we can have at least half the Konoha ninja on our side while the other half deals with the invasion through the village.''

''But if we tell the old man that we know Orochimaru's coming wouldn't we have to tell him that we're from the future!?'' Naruto asked.

''Maybe...maybe not. But before we do anything we have to finish this test, so lets hurry up and get the earth scroll!'' Sakura shouted in determination.

So the they took off deeper into the forest of death to get as far away from the stank ugly bum, I mean Orochimaru...as possible.

A/N: I'm sorry this chapter is so short like the other one but the nurses who worked at the hospital only gave me an hour a day to type. I barely got even ten minutes though because they kept coming in to give me checkups...BUT NOW I'M FREE AND ALMOST HOME! Man...my moms gonna be pissed. She was cool about it last time since she kows how much I hated hospitals. But this time I'm coming home in the middle of the night whereas last time I came in the evening. But all her screaming will be worth it because my cousin Bri interns at the hospital and she just coincidentily(wink wink)brought her camcorder with her today.(She's also the one who gave me money for the bus! Love ya cuz!) I can't wait to see her video of all those people looking for me because they think I'm commiting suicide! I know it's mean...but they were mean to me first! I'd tell you about it...but I think I've rambled enough...

So anyway, my favorite part was...when Sasuke was telling them he had to take pills to keep him awake. Silly Sasuke, you should have known that they probably could of helped you if you told them earlier...

Subaki's fav part:

''Sasuke-kun...what are those?'' Sakura asked, wondering why in the world Sasuke would need to take pills.

''...Vitamins...'' Was his hesitant reply. This only caused his teammates to look more confused.

''Why the hell do you need to take vitamins?'' Naruto asked, a little angry his friend was being so secretive. Sasuke shifted uncomfortably before answering, ''To keep me awake...''

''What did you say?'' Sakura and Naruto asked in unison.

''Since our mission escorting Tazuna.'' He mumbled a little louder, but still so soft they had to strain their ears to hear him.

Vein's popped on both Sakura and Naruto's heads.
