Disclaimer: If I owned Naruto, you wouldn't be here right now. You be watching this all unfold on your television screen. Unfortunately, I don't own Naruto, and the people who do don't want to entertain you. Ah well…enjoy.

Authors Note: Alright, I didn't exactly get a boat load of reviews for my first chapter, but I know a lot of people read my story, and I have a few people following it. I'm even on the favorite list of a couple of people. I'm excited, but I'd like reviews. Even anonymous ones. I am new to writing fan fics, so I wanted to know what you guys think! Give me constructive criticism! I can take it!

Chapter Two:
We left the next day and traveled to a village in the Land of Fire called Oronichu. It was the last place Kisame was spotted.

"Any news, guys?" Kakashi asked when we got back to our motel. We had gone off in pairs – Kakashi and Sakura, me and Sasuke – to collect information on him.

"Naruto and I found out where he was living and who he was living with," Sasuke said.

"Really?" Kakashi asked. "And did you two behave?"

Well, not exactly.

We had gotten into a fight over where to start. I said to start with motels in the village, but Sasuke told me that if he was hiding, he wouldn't get a room at a motel. He wanted to go to all the food places in the village, because he had to eat sometime. I didn't argue – because he suggested we start off at the Ramen place.

After I had my ramen and Sasuke questioned the owner, we found out that Kisame was living with a woman in her house, so we decided to stop by. There was no one home so, we decided to stay. He had complimented me on how I defeated Gaara. I thought for a second that maybe Sasuke was starting to respect me as a ninja. Until…

"If I had to place bets between you and Gaara, I wouldn't have thought in a million years you could even come close to beating him," he said with a smug smile. He was taunting me! "I mean, he's Gaara. I know I was holding my own until the curse mark acted up, but you had almost no chance."

"Oh yeah, Sasuke!" I yelled. "Well I did beat him, while you were busy crying in pain. Is the curse mark too much for you?"

"Shut up, Naruto," he said. I had beaten him this time. "You have no idea what it's like to have Orochimaru's curse mark. And I hope you never have to."

"Why do you hope I wouldn't have to?" I asked. Did he actually care?

"Well, I wouldn't wish this on anyone," he said. "Besides, you wouldn't be able to handle it." The smug smirk was back. "It's a good thing Orochimaru doesn't see you as valuable enough to be worth inflicting the curse on, right?"

Now he beat me. That's when the door opened and a woman entered.

"Kisame was living with a woman who didn't know who he really was," I told Kakashi. "She had a huge crush on her, so she let him stay with her."

"Hm," Kakashi said. He was deep in thought. "What did she say about Kisame?"

"He didn't do anything to her," Sasuke continued, "but he was behind a string of disappearances in the village. When they found out, he killed a few people, and fled before the leaf ninja were called for help."

"Interesting," Kakashi said.

"What did you find out?" Sasuke asked.

"That he was behind a string of disappearances, same as you. But we also found out that he had a job at a farm on the other side of the village."

"So that's where we're going next?" Sasuke asked.

"It appears so," Kakashi said.

"Fine," I said. "But I don't want to be in Sasuke's group anymore."

"I thought you were getting along fine," Kakashi said. Sasuke and I glared at each other. "Fine," he finally conceded. "Sasuke, you're with me. Sakura, you're with Naruto."

"Aw," Sakura said. I don't see what the problem was. I liked our arrangement just fine.

Author's Note #2: I know this chapter was short, but I will update with Chapter Three quickly. I'm not going to write a story about them falling in love in a day. Expect many chapters leading up to it. I probably could have done a few long chapters, but I like updating daily and giving myself enough of a lag that if I don't write a chapter a day, I can still upload one a day. If you read me before going to sleep or right when you get back from school or work, just check in. I can almost guarantee that there will be an update if you wait 24 hours.

ANYWAY…I'm done rambling. REMEMBER TO REVIEW! I NEED REVIEWS!
