Chapter 2
A/N: I promised that Sasuke will be in this chapter. Thought, it will be short. Hope you enjoy. I got nothing to do this summer, so might as well type stories.
One week later....
"Sakura-chan!!" a spiky-haired boy rushed to a pink haired girl.
"Naruto?" she turned around.
"Did you hear? There has been a rumor that Tsunade is taking some stranger under her wing."
"A stranger? Oh, look, there's Sasuke." Sakura pointed at Sasuke.
Sasuke was walking with Kiba and Shikamaru.
"Hey." Kiba greeted them.
"...." Shikamaru made no sound.
"H-" Sakura was cut off when Naruto spoke.
"Did you hear? Tsunade-sama is taking someone under her wing. Then she'll produce a brillant prodigy like Sasuke or Neji." he panicked.
"Why are you panicking, baka?" Sasuke said in his ususal cold way.
"The girl that she's taken is a complete stranger." a voice said behind them. It was Ino along with Hinata and Tenten.
"A complete stanger?" Shikamaru finally said a word.
"Yes. From what I've heard from the rumors, the ANBU found her a week ago. They don't know where she's from. Well, maybe Tsunade knows. But, no one in Konoha has ever seen her." Ino further explained.
"Wow Ino-chan. You've been paying attention to a lot of rumors. I wonder why you didn't do that during school days before." Kiba joked.
"Oh Fuck you." Ino snapped at him.
"Wait, you said it was a 'her'. Then, it's a girl?" Sakura said as she remembered the words Ino said.
"Yeah. She's a girl." Ino replied.
"Ah! Then I won't have anything to worry about." Naruto said in relief.
"W-Why i-i-is that, N-Naruto-k-kun?" Hinata stammered.
"Because, the girl wouldn't be a no good anyway." he replied.
"That's such a mean thing to say Naruto." Shino suddenly appeared behind him.
"AAAAAH! Creepy bug guy." Naruto said.
Shino got pissed.
"Don't mind him Shino, he's no for good anyway as well." Sakura said.
"I just passed by because my bugs heard a little something from what Lee and Neji have been informed of." Shino said.
"Wait... Lee and Neji were informed of this??!!?" Tenten broke out. Her rage scared Naruto and Kiba.
"Howcome they didn't tell me?" she wondered.
"Maybe because you're still childish." Naruto blurted out what was on his mind.
Tenten hithim on the head and said. "Please go on Shino."
"I won't say much. All I know, they call her 'The Girl Under the Parasol'." he said.
"The Girl under the Parasol?" Sasuke said.
"Yes. No one really saw her face. But they only know is that she's blonde." Shino replied.
"Are you certain that wasn't Naruto just playing with his jutsu?" Sasuke asked.
All of them laughed. Maybe not Shino or Shikamaru.
"Why you crazy jerk!" Naruto charged at Sasuke. Sasuke ducked him and punched Naruto as Naruto flew over him Matrix-style. :D
"Well, that's all I know." Shino said leaving.
"Ok. Thanks Shino." Sakura said.
"That's strange. The girl under the parasol." Ino remarked.
"Whoever she is, we're gonna find out." Sakura said.
"Yeah." The rest of them said.
Up in a tree....
"Neji... they know..." Lee said as he sat on the branch.
"They musn't see who she is. Hokage's orders. The Hokage will know what to do to them." Neji coldly replied.
"Neji...."
"What?"
"Don't you sound a bit too cold?"
"....."
"Well, she'll be ready soon."
"We can't talk here now. Let's go." Neji said, sensing someone was watching them.

A/N: Just did this quickly. :P
