Naruto's P.O.V.

After classes when Sasuke-teme and Sakura-chan finally stopped arguing, we decided to go to our ,,secret place". Sakura-chan , of course, knew nothing of this secret place of ours. Because only Teme and I knew about it. We discovered it when we were 12. It was in the park, when we were racing my foot slipped and I fell into some bushes. Teme followed. It turned out that there was beautiful view over the river, with cherry blossom trees. And when I fell into the bushes there was this small tunnel-like thing which bushes created. This was the reason nobody else found it. Teme and I would always go there after classes, but then we decided that we would go there when we felt depressed or had some big problems. Well, the problem was big all right. Neji was missing. It has already been a week and still no trace of him. With Hyuga annual dinner coming up, our time was running up. We didn't find anything in the Hyuga compound the other day. It's hard on Sakura-chan too, since her parents divorced and all. Where did that come from, dattebayo? I thought they were doing just fine and were working out their anger issues. Well at least that's what Sakura-chan said… Anyway, Teme is looking at Sakura-chan strangely, what's that all about, 'tebayo?

Sasuke's P.O.V.

"Teme!" Dobe screamed in my ear. "Why are you staring at Sakura-chan like that?"
What the hell is that idiot talking about?

"Don't go imagining stupid things like that idiot!"
Haruno perked up at that.

"What are you two blabbering about? And where are we going anyway?

"Oh, you'll see. " Naruto snickered and got hit on the head for that too. "Oi, what was that for, Sakura-chan?"

"For being all mysterious. " Haruno answered.

I sighed. What's the point of all this? And when did I sign up to be a detective and find who captured or kidnapped that Hyuga? Why am I here in the first place?
And to make everything even better that idiot Dobe suggested we take Haruno to our "secret place". Yeah and that needs a better name too.
I sighed again.

"What are you sighing about? " Sakura asked as if it really mattered. I shrugged.

"Why do you care? " I glared at her.

"It's irritating." She glared back. And what did I expect?

"Well, sorry. But I don't fancy you knowing about… That place. "

"Why? You have porn magazines hidden all around? I've seen plenty of those at Naruto's place so don't worry." She grinned.

"Hey!" Dobe tried to object but I cut him off.

"Not the point, Sakura."

"Really?" She laughed. I sighed again. "Anyway are we close yet? "

"Curious much?" I mused.

"So what if I am?" She glared.

I was about to answer when Naruto decided to cut in.

"Would you two cut it off, already? Oh, and we are here. "Dobe grinned and disappeared into the tunnel.

Sakura's P.O.V.

Just how did this idiot manage to not blabber anything about this place for four freaking years. Hell yes, I'm interested what that's all about. Naruto has never been so secretive and if he is than this place must be something important. So can you blame me for being curious? Well, this Uchiha is annoying me to death and I would seriously like to punch him in the face. Why is he glaring at me? God…

"Now what?" I asked and glared back at him.

"I already told you! I don't want you here." I was about to say something in return but before I had the chance he smirked and disappeared into the tunnel after Naruto.

Just great. Nobody's heard of 'Ladies first?'
I swear I will punch one of them so hard…
'Calm down, Sakura' my inner self says. I sigh and go after them into the tunnel.
I climbed through some bushes, which the guys called 'the tunnel'. It really did look like one.
When I emerged I had to blink. I was surrounded with Cherry blossoms from all sides. We were standing on a cliff and below us was a river. I could hear it roaring. The place was amazing. No wonder they wanted to keep it a secret. If anyone found this place it would be crowded everyday! And government would turn it into a park area to try to make money. And in time they would destroy this marvelous place.
Naruto's voice snapped me out of my thoughts.

"So what do you think Sakura-chan?" He grinned.

"This… This is beautiful!" I smiled.

Naruto laughed.

"Told ya, 'tebbayo. "

"Enough with that we have thinking to do." Uchiha piped in. Can't he at least give me a minute to enjoy this beauty? "Come on!" Of course not. I sighed.

"So what do we have so far?" I asked and walked towards Sasuke.

Naurto plopped down on the ground and we followed.

"Someone kidnapped Neji." Naruto stated.

"Well duh, idiot." Sasuke sighed.

"Just before the annual Hyuga dinner. Police can't find any leads no clues." I stated.

"How do you know what police is doing?" Naruto perked up.

"I watch the news?" Seriously? Don't this idiots watch news? They both looked at me with weird faces. "What?" And then Naruto burst out laughing.

"What, are you an old lady?" Naruto finally calmed down. .

"Narutoo!" I was about to punch him, but Sasuke grabbed my hand before it made contact with Naruto's face.

"No time for that." he calmly said and sat back down.

Well even though I still wanted to punch Naruto I stopped. That is not my first priority right now.

"Dobe listen. " Sasuke started.

"Yeah?"
"

Neji was probably kidnaped so that you would break up with Hinata"

"Huh?" Naruto looked both confused and frightened.

"Don't be so blunt Uchiha!" I spoke up. "Naruto, don't you think the timing is just off? Neji was kidnaped right before the dinner and then you get blamed. And the first one they told was Hinata. Doesn't really look as a coincidence to me. "

"You knew that those guys didn't like you in the first place." Sasuke stated bluntly.

"Yeah, but… Would they really go so far, 'tebayo?"

"So it seems."

"They will use your fight with Neji three years ago as evidence. As you said, they think you and Neji are still on bad terms with each other and you wouldn't want him to be on the dinner. If Neji doesn't show up then their suspicion will get bigger and if he shows up after then… " I didn't want to finish that sentence but apparently Sasuke didn't have the same difficulty.

"Hinata will probably break up with you." He finished.

Naruto's face turned white. "Wait, no. She believes me. "

"Yeah, but this time Hyugas will force her."

"But if Neji shows up, won't he tell the truth?"

"Yeah, but I don't think the kidnaper is that stupid. He'll do something about that." I said.

"Woah" Naruto stopped me. "This is messed up. I get that I'm not the best choice for the Hyuga successor, but why would someone go to that extent just so I break up with Hinata?"

"Hell if we know." Sasuke stated.

"Look, all we need to do is find Neji before the dinner." Said I.

"Right cause nothing's easier than that." Sasuke sighed.

"And we have less than a week!" Naruto chimed. "What the hell?"

"Yeah, have to figure something out." I sighed.

"Oh, oh!" Naruto jumped up. "We need a cool name!"

"Dobe sit down!" Sasuke sighed.

"No, no. Listen, something like 'The Squad'."

"That sounds dumb."

"Ok, then. The team."

"Still dumb, Naruto."

"Oh, come on, Teme. Nothing suits you!"

"Hn."

"OK, what about Team… Team 3? Team 7!" Naruto's eyes lit up.

"Why seven?"
"

I don't know I just like seven."
"

I like it." I smiled.

Naruto grinned. "So it's decided! We are Team 7!"
