"Dammit!" cursed Kabuto as he dragged the machine out of the Hidden Leaf Village. Orochimaru said he would be with his fellow Sannin, so that left Kabuto alone.
"Do whatever you want, Kabuto."
This is difficult for the young adult. He knew where to take it, it was all planned out. The village was far from close, and the Land of Rivers was closer than ever. Kabuto stopped to take a rest. He stared at the machine as he started to pant. It began to shake and make noise. Kabuto jumped away from it,
"What the-?!"
The blue aura was filled with something much darker. Slowly, a creature with a white mask stepped out, making the scientist gasp. His onyx eyes were wide, not with fear, but with shock. The being growled, shouted. A dark chuckle escaped.
"Damn... Looks like I have to defeat this creature. Sorry, but I won't be able to give to device to them just yet... Not until I extract some of the energy of this monster."
Kabuto pushed his glasses up and drew kunai.
"Sasuke? Naruto? Ino?" Sakura wondered about in a forest. She looked around, soaking in the heat waves.
"It feels like summer~!" She hummed, but soon regained her serious position. They've all been separated, scattered around this large space.
Sakura began to walk where she could sense chakra, she had to find somebody she knew. But she felt a dark presence, as if somebody was behind her. Slowly, she turned around.
"What's a helpless little girl like you doing here?" A creature lowly growled.
"AHHHHHHH! WHAT IN THE HELL IS THIS?!" Sakura screamed. This thing was so big, large and evil.
Naruto heard the scream. He stopped running, "Sakura?!"
Sasuke froze, "Oh no.."
Team Guy stood still.
"Lee, did you hear that?!" Neji Hyuga asked.
"Sakura is in danger!" Lee replied.
"We've got to help her," Tenten gripped the scroll on her back.
Team 8;
"Hinata, the source of the scream?!" Kiba shouted as he rode on his giant ninja dog, Akamaru.
"It's coming from that direction!" Hinata squeaked.
Team 10;
"Shikamaru!" scolded Ino. "Sakura's in trouble, let's help her!"
"That's what I was just about to say.." He calmly said.
"WHO CARES?!"
Panting came from the pink haired kunoichi. Her fists were covered with blood.
"CHAAAAAAA!"
She tried to give a blow, but she was stopped by a sword.
"Idiot!" Sasuke scolded.
"Sa..Sasuke...?" Sakura's green eyes, widen.
"Stay back. The others are coming soon."
"But-"
"Heal your wounds and stay back!" Sasuke shouted.
Sakura nodded and slowly backed away.
"RASENGAN!" Naruto jumped out of the bushes and charged at the creature. It's arms gushed blood. Sasuke held his sword in front of him, shielding him from any dirt.
"NARUTO!" Neji shouted, his white eyes activating his Byakugan.
"Neji-kun!" His cousin emerged.
"Hinata-sama? Do you see it?"
"Yes! I see it! It's weakness!"
The creature growled, "You brats are worse than the Soul Reapers."
"Shut ya trap!" Kiba howled, Shino by his side, black glasses reflecting.
"It doesn't matter what we are, creature. Hurt our friends and we'll hurt you." Sasuke spoke, giving an icey glare.
Everybody gave unbelievable looks at Sasuke.
Scratching of heads, blank stares and blinks.
"All I wanted was a snack, but looks like I've bargained for more!" The creature laughed.
"DO I LOOK LIKE A SNACK TO YOU, BASTARD?!" Sakura raised her fist and shouted.
Shikamaru, Ino, and Choji quietly appeared.
"Should I use the Mind Transfer jutsu, Shikamaru?" The blonde asked. No answer, Shikamaru was talking with Neji.
"Are you just going to ignore me like that Shikamaru?!"
"No, Ino." said Choji. They're coming up with a plan."
"Oh..?"
"Shadow Possession Jutsu!" Shikamaru brought his hands together, and a thick shadow line came in contact with the creature, stopping him.
"Now, TenTen!" Neji shouted. The teen with the Chinese-looking buns behind Neji nodded, throwing kunai and shuriken at the creature's arms and legs.
"Sakura-chan! Attack his mask, now!" Hinata commanded.
"Alright!" She said. Her hands were all healed. She clenched her fist and jumped, taking advantage of the creature's incapacitated arms and legs.
"CHA!" She punched the mask and it broke in half. The creature slowly disappeared, disintegrating.
"It's gone.." Naruto said.
"What the hell was that thing?" Kiba asked.
"I do not know what it is exactly, but I sense a high amount of supernatural powers.." Neji replied.
"And I assume they devour humans, or their souls." Shino added.
"No, it must be much more than that. Why would they want a normal human without any supernatural powers?" Sasuke continued.
"The only reason it attacked Sakura was to fed off her immense chakra! I'm surprised they didn't go after me!" Naruto chuckled.
"YOU THINK THIS IS SOMETHING TO JOKE ABOUT?!" Sakura punched him.
"Sa...Sakura... Ouch..."
"SUCH YOUTH, INTELLIGENCE! COULD THIS STILL BE OUR ROOKIES?"
"Hardly believe that's Naruto."
"What the hell?!" Naruto stood up, clenching his fist. "Kakashi-sensei! Guy-sensei?! Come down from there!" He yelled at a tree.
"Uh, Naruto?" The silver haired Jounin said. "We're behind you."
"Eh?!" Naruto spun around.
"Hello, kids!" Guy gave a thumbs up.
"Guy-sensei! Thank the heavens! You're safe!"
"Oh, Lee!"
"..'OH', SOMEWHERE ELSE!" Naruto pushed the running pair away from each other.
"We've got to get to Karakura Town! I'm not wasting any time!"
"OF COURSE, YOU CAN'T HELP BUT TO BE IMPATIENT, NARUTO!"
Naruto was about to retort at Sakura, both Kakashi cleared his throat. "I suggest we move on now, we'll get there faster."
"GREAT IDEA, KAKASHI!" Might Guy smacked Kakashi's back a bit too hard, making the latter wince. "Wanna race?" Guy suggested.
"No!"

"The Hollow... It's gone." A small, petite girl said, putting her phone away.
"What?! Impossible!" A teen with spikey orange hair shouted. "Did Uryu kill it?"
"I'm right here, dumbass!" Uryu replied.
"Oh, right. Well, er, then who killed it, Rukia?"
"Dunno." Rukia replied, shrugging her shoulders.
"Wait." Uryu said. He pushed his glasses up as he inspected the area around him. "Ichigo.. Do.. Do you feel that?"
"No.. What the hell are you talking about, Uryu?!"
"A spirit pressure different from the Soul Reapers and Hollows... Rukia, you're a Soul, tell us, can you feel the energy?"
Rukia looked around, "A bit.. What can that be?"
The two were pondering as Ichigo stood confused as ever.
"You know I don't like waiting, Kabuto Yakushi."
"I apologize, Lord Sasori.. I came in contact with a strange creature from this portal, and I killed it."
"Is that so?"
"Yes. I've collected some data, also."
"Excellent.. Leader will be pleased to hear this."
Yeah... I know Orochimaru is all evil and whatnot, but I made this for humor. This takes place in an AU, and some things might be altered.
