Pushing it to the Limits

Hinata walked towards Tsunade's office.

She, Shikamaru, Ino, Neji, Ten-Ten, Sai and Chouji had been called to Tsunade's office.

She walked in the others were already there and … the elders

Hinata looked at Neji and raised an eyebrow Neji tilted his head in confusion too.

"Ah Hinata you finally grace us with your presence." Tsunade said

"Um sorry I got the message late." Hinata replied.

"We asked Tsunade to call you all hear because we have a mission for you." One of the Elders said. "As you probably all already know Sakura Haruno and Naruto Uzumaki have betrayed the village and joined the Akatsuki, they are now an enemy to Konoha and are to be treated as criminals; we are sending you to eliminate them."

"Excuse me?!" Hinata yelled.

All of them looked at her.

Since when was Hinata so confident?Tsunade thought and smirked.

"Tsunade are you serious, you are letting them do this." Hinata said

Tsunade looked away.

"We are not prepared to do that, even if Sakura and Naruto joined the Akatsuki they are still our friends and we will not fight them." Chouji said.

"Are you sure about that? Refusing to do what we ask is punishable by death; you might want to rethink your answer." The elder said. "If you refuse you are betraying the village and putting them at risk, do you really want to do that? After all we have done to make this village safe eliminating threats, you are willing to betray us?"

Hinata had heard enough.

"You did it didn't you? You eliminated the Uchiha and Haruno clan, they weren't a threat they were here to protect us! What gives you the right to eliminate entire clans?!" Hinata said getting angry she turned around to walk out. "Oh and by the way, I am going to find Naruto and Sakura and I am going to join them because at least they have the guts to stand up to you." Hinata said staring and the elders.

"Hey Hinata wait up, I am coming too!" Ten-Ten said

"Me too." Chouji said

"And me." Ino said.

"I guess I am going too." Sai said

"Fine I guess I may as well." Neji said.

Everyone looked at Shikamaru. He looked back at them.

"What?" Shikamaru breathed in and sighed. "Fine."

"So it looks like you will have to kill us all." Hinata said.

"Fine it shouldn't be that hard." The elders said.

"STOP! I have had enough!" Tsunade yelled. "Go, leave but you will not be able to return."

Tsunade looked at them with tears in her eyes.

I am so sorry she mouthed to them.

Hinata gracefully nodded understanding Tsunade.

She doesn't want this either; don't worry Tsunade we will be back and hopefully with some friends.

They all turned and left.

Sasuke woke and went to have a shower once he finished he sat down on the couch

What am I going to do? She is going to think something now, I'm not ready for something to happen and I don't want her to think anything like that at the moment, God now I am going to have to go and fucking explain to her everything.

Sasuke got up and walked to Sakura's room. She answered the door.

"Oh hi, umm come in." Sakura said and stood to the side to let Sasuke through. "Umm can we talk in like 2 minutes, so I can have a shower and all?"

"Hn." Sasuke said and made his way over to the bed.

Sakura walked into the bathroom.

Sasuke sat on the bed.

After 5 minutes a knock came.

Should I answer it? Hn oh well may as well.

Sasuke got up and made his way to the door and opened it.

"Why hello Sasuke." Naruto greeted

"Why are you here Naruto?" Sasuke asked

"Well we have a mission tonight." Naruto said and smiled.

Sakura opened the bathroom door and walked into her room and saw Naruto and Sasuke talking, so she made her way over to them.

"Sakura we have a mission!" Naruto repeated.

"Well that is good I guess what are we doing?" Sakura asked.

"There is apparently a group of assassins from Sound on their way to eliminate a group of people valuable to the Akatsuki or whatever." Naruto told them.

"Right, piece of cake." Sakura said putting on her gloves.

"We leave tonight." Sasuke informed Sakura

"Soo… what are you doing here Sasuke?" Naruto asked grinning cheekily.

"None of your business, Naruto." Sasuke said and walked pass him out to the corridor to the training grounds.

"Little grumpy there are we Sasuke?" Naruto yelled after him.

Sasuke kept his back turned, lifted up his hand and gave Naruto the finger.

Naruto's mouth dropped.

"Did you see that?" Naruto growled.

Sakura burst out laughing. Naruto turned and went after Sasuke. Sakura suddenly stopped and went after Naruto.

"Oh my god Naruto, come on that was nothing don't get angry about it." Sakura said whilst chasing after Naruto.

They eventually got outside.

Sakura stopped and put her hand up to her eyes.

"TEME!" Naruto screamed.

You have got to be kiddingSakura thought and speed up to get to Naruto.

Sasuke stopped walking and turned around.

"What do you want now dobe?" he said uninterestedly.

"For you to stop being an ass!" Naruto replied

"Hmm let me think about that… no I don't feel like it." Sasuke said.

Naruto's anger was boiling up.

Sakura walked over to them and stood between them facing Naruto.

"What the hell is up with you?" She asked confused at why Naruto was so annoyed about such a small thing.

"Sakura stay out of this, it has nothing to do with you." Naruto said and pushed her aside.

"Excuse you, You know what if you get hurt I AM NOT HEALING YOU!" Sakura yelled and walked away to the side of the clearing and sat down.

From the edge of the clearing Sakura could see Naruto's anger, the Kyuubi was beginning to show.

Hopefully it doesn't get to the fourth tail because if it does I am going to have to stop things.

Naruto charged at Sasuke, Sasuke activated his Sharingan and dodged it easily.

All I did was tell him to mind his own business and stuck the finger up at him why is he so shitty?

Naruto ran at Sasuke again, Sasuke flipped out a Shuriken and threw it at Naruto. Naruto still ran at it and at the last moment jumped up and landed on the shuriken then he bounced off it and continued to run at Sasuke. Sasuke did hand signals.

"Katon, Karyuu Endan!"(Fire Dragon Flame Blast)

Sasuke breathed in and then out sending a stream of fire towards Naruto.

Naruto looked at it and saw the head of a dragon form, he ran to the side but the dragon followed, Naruto ran around the whole clearing trying to escape the flames but to no avail.

I am going to have to go to the source.Naruto turned and ran for Sasuke.

Sasuke's eyes widened.

If I don't stop the jutsu Naruto will hit me and I will get burnt.

Sasuke stopped the flames and caught Naruto's fist just in time. He held Naruto's fist firmly and didn't let go he then leant back and brought his foot up and kicked it right into Naruto's chest, sending him flying to the opposite end of the field.

Sakura watched all of this with disinterest.

Typical they can't even spend a couple of days with each other without having a fight."

But then something caught Sakura's attention.

Naruto was now in a crouch and head down then he slowly brought it up to look and Sasuke.

The fourth tail began to form, Naruto's eyes were red his face was scrunched back into a growl. He began to form Rasengan.

Sasuke stood calmly and began to form Chidori.

Hell no, now I actually have to do something, God can't they just be friends for five minutes.

Sakura thought and go up.

They had finished forming there techniques.

RASENGAN! CHIDORI! They ran at each other.

Sakura walked towards where they would meet.

Sasuke's eyes flickered towards Sakura.

What is she doing she will be killed

Sasuke tried to disengage his Chidori.

I am too far into it to disengage it now, I have to hit something!

Naruto saw Sakura walking calmly to where he and Sasuke would meet too.

Sakura move!He screamed in his mind.

Sakura continued to walk calmly to the middle of the field. She stood there and waited for them to meet.

Time seemed to slow for both Sasuke and Naruto as the reached Sakura. They watched as she slowly moved her hands up so they were in the way of both their fists.

Their fists made contact with her hands.

The impact made her arms bend till they stopped near her face. Her head was down and her eyes were closed.

Sasuke and Naruto were frozen in place breathing hard, eyes wide open.

Sakura's head lifted up, she opened her eyes they were Gold.
