The forest was dense and suffocating, Little light passed through the trees making things unreasonable and quiet, but they knew this was not going to be easy as it was stated that there was death happen in here they just had to make sure they didn't. They would try to find some teams but nobody had the right scroll, In the middle of it Naruto had to take a leak and when he came back he gave the code but he knew it almost too well as Naruto would have at least butchered some words.

So they dispatched him and as he fled Naruto came back and just like they said butchered almost every word. They kept going through the forest when Lincoln went off with Sasuke to see if they could find anything. They found a Team but they were already dead in a mess of blood they then heard a scream as a girl with red hair was about to be attacked by a bear both boys would have intervened killing it as she watched in awe blushing a bit they then looked at her and told her to get somewhere safe and alert the proctor. She nodded and they went and found another earth scroll from the bodies Lincoln keeps this and they leave meeting with Sakura but not Naruto.

They would ask about him but she said he went to look some more. They would be ready to leave when they are stopped by a woman with a straw hat smiling with a smirk that would make the devil scared. She would then throw the hat away and suddenly Sasuke and Sakura were paralyzed with fear wondering who this lady was, Lincoln wasn't and asked "Who are you!? You're too strong and evil to be a mere Genin!" The woman would laugh a laugh so sadistic and evil as her voice turns somewhat scratch and more man like as she put her finger in her eye socket pulling almost revealing a second eye pigmentation terrifying the two and making Lincoln even more pissed.

In a flashed she would attack them but only prioritizing Sasuke, Lincoln however blitzes forward and begins to fight her, she then sees he is much stronger than let on and begins to continue to engage him with more force put into it. She summons two large snakes as one attacks Lincoln while she rides the other one to Sasuke and Sakura. Sasuke all the while can't move out of fear and just before the snake hits him Naruto appears blocking the snake as he says "Are ya Hurt Scaredy Cat?" As his eyes are red with slits. He fights the snake and manages to destroy it with Lincoln doing the same, Sasuke seeing this would stab himself with a kunai freeing himself from the killing intent due to pain he would look on and see the two fighting he would hear the words of his "brother" "Cling on to this life for you have nothing" "No No! NO!" his two tomoe Sharingan would appear as he rushes to aid his teammates.

He helps fight off the person and they manage to push them back with Sasuke using a special Shuriken technique where he uses Ninja wire to snare them on a tree , Lincoln then uses Wood Release to bind them to the tree as well they both then say "Fire-Style Dragon Flame Jutsu" as massive fire spews out their mouth which begins to burn the person. Lincoln does hand signs and does "Katon Hidori no Jutsu (Hydra Technique)" outputting even more flames which manage to burn off their skin more showing they had a second layer of skin pale and white with the eye pigmentation being this yellow snake eye. The person would say "Kukukukuku I'm impressed with you boys too bad for you Izuna you are not my target but your body would be of great use." The person would say Licking their lips with their freakishly long tongue. He would then say that all he needs is the scroll and they are free to go. Sasuke is hesitant but is ready to go and give it but Naruto runs at the figure yelling "NO WAY WERE GIVING YOU ANYTHING YOU CREEP!!" He fights the person but then they use some weird technique that lights their fingers in purple fire then thrust all fingers into the seal on Naruto's stomach making him fall unconscious.

Lincoln rushes catching him but before he could do anything they extend their neck and bite down on Sasuke's. They then grab the scroll swallowing it as Lincoln manages to reach the unconscious Sasuke and Sakura with the being saying that Sasuke would come for him for power. Disappearing leaving Lincoln and Sakura alone. Lincoln would give Naruto to Sakura and tells her to find somewhere to stay safe until they both wake up. She asks what he's going to do and he says "To find a Snake" as he leaps away.
