Kale's POV
"Okay now that you've done all that formal junk you've got stuff to do for me." Naruto told Tsunade "You promised."
"What was I doing again?" she asked.
"You promised to look at Sasuke and Kakashi-Sensei…oh and Big Brows too!" Naruto said.
"All right lead the way." She sighed.
We didn't get very far before we ran across Shikamaru and his father.
"What are you two doing here?" he asked.
"We could ask you the same." I pointed out.
"Taking care of some annoying crap." He shrugged "He who's the lady with the big…attitude."
"She's the new Hokage." Naruto said "She's really like 50 or something though."
"It's true." I said "I've seen it myself."
"Silence!" the old woman snapped.
"Yes Ma'am!" I said "See you later Shikamaru!"
"We'll talk more later." Naruto said "I've got a cool new move to show you."
"Idiot don't just go showing off your Jutsu." Jiraiya yelled punching his students skull.
We followed Tsunade to the local hospital and she was kind enough to go to Sasuke's room. I had heard the story from Naruto, apparently Sasuke and Sensei had been hurt in an attack by men in black cloaks with red clouds on them.
"Hey Sakura!" Naruto said letting himself in "It's gonna be fine, this lady's a doctor."
"I heard about you from Guy-Sensei." Sakura bowed "Please help Sasuke."
"I'll do what I can." Tsunade smiled.
The older woman walked over and placed her hand on Sasuke's forehead "He'll wake up soon."
That was it, it barely took a second.
Tsunade left us to go check on Sensei and Lee, but it was just like she said, in about a half hour Sasuke had woken up. Sakura hugged him but he didn't seem to respond in any way. Once Sasuke was up I decided to head home and see my parents.
"Hey." Tenten jogged by "You're back in town."
"Yeah, how are you?" I asked.
"I'm good, I've been training and stuff, none of have been going out…you know with Lee being injured and all." She explained.
"Oh well we just got back to the village with a healer, the new Hokage, she was going to see Lee so hopefully he'll be better soon." I smiled.
"Oh yeah, I should go see!" she cheered running off.
I headed home and saw my parents, they were happy to see I was still in one piece. I told them my training had gone well and that I had met with new Hokage. After putting my things away Naruto ran by and told me he was going back to the hospital if I wanted to join him.
I decided to tag along and say hi to Sasuke now that he had been awake for a few hours.
"Yo we're back." Naruto said opening the door.
"How's everyone…" I started talking but stopped.
The floor was covered with shards of shattered ceramic and Sasuke was glaring a hole right through Naruto.
"What?" Naruto looked around "Something on my face?"
"Naruto…" Sasuke grumbled "Fight me, right now."
"What are you talking about?" Naruto said "You're still recovering."
"I said shut up and fight me!" Sasuke snapped flaring his Sharingan.
He's not messing around…
"You thought you helped, bringing that Fifth Hokage or whatever, butting into my business."
"What are you talking about?" Naruto asked.
Sasuke got out of bed and stared Naruto down.
"Both of you quit it." I said.
"Naruto tell him to stop." Sakura begged.
"Well…I was thinking about this too." Naruto growled.
"We're not getting out of this." I told Sakura.
"The roof." Sasuke commanded "Now."
"Guys stop it." Sakura begged.
Sasuke left the room and Naruto followed him out. I had a bad feeling in the pit of my stomach, whatever those two were gonna do, it wasn't gonna be good.
"You wanna stay here?" I asked Sakura "I'll wait with you if you want?"'
Sakura didn't answer and just ran out of the room. I headed up to the roof and found Naruto and Sasuke staring each other down.
"To think…I can finally beat you." Naruto smirked.
"Stop talking nonsense loser." Sasuke growled.
"I'm not the same loser I used to be." Naruto glared.
"What are so full of yourself for idiot?" Sasuke asked.
"Why are you losing your cool so much?" Naruto asked "What are you scared now that you challenged me?"
"Just shut up and fight!" Sasuke yelled.
"Put your headband on." Naruto said.
"I don't need it." Sasuke responded.
"Just put it on!" Naruto yelled.
"It's not like you'll lay a finger on me or my forehead." Sasuke said.
His body language, he looks pissed…
"No!" Naruto yelled "This isn't about protection, this is a symbol that we fight as equal Leaf Ninjas."
"That's why your full of yourself!" Sasuke spat back "You actually think you're equal with me?!"
No he's not…I'd wager Naruto is stronger than you Sasuke…You skirt by on natural ability while people like Naruto and Rock Lee crawl to the top on sheer hard work…
"Of course I do!" Naruto answered "I've never thought I was inferior to you, not once!"
"You're pissing me off!"
"You're just pissed because you're weak!"
The two ran forward and started exchanging punches and kicks. Naruto stepped back and summoned his tribe of shadow clones to pile on Sasuke. Sasuke used his fire breath to blow away the clones, but at the center of the pile was Naruto and one clone charging up a Rasengan. Seeing the coming attack Sasuke charged up his hand with lightning.
"Stop it you two!" Sakura yelled pushing passed me.
"Sakura stop!" I tried to grab "Don't go out there you'll get yourself killed!"
"RAAAH!" Kakashi-Sensei suddenly appeared and grabbed the two boys, throwing them away so them didn't hit Sakura.
"What do you two think you're doing?!" he yelled "Fighting on the roof of a hospital full of people, Cool it!"
The Rasengan and the Chidori…if those had collided they could have killed each other, not to mention what they almost did to Sakura.
"Ha…" Naruto panted pulling his hand out of the water tower, a trickle of water pouring out.
"GAH!" Sasuke yanked his own hand free, the water gushing out "Heh…"
"Not everything is a contest." I said walking by him "What are you five?"
I walked over to Sakura who was on her knees crying "Hey are you alright, don't go running out like that."
"That Chidori." I heard Kakashi-Sensei scolding Sasuke "It's not the level to use on a comrade, were you trying to kill someone?"
I knew it…Naruto was just looking to have a fun little spar, Sasuke was looking for a knockout fight.
Sasuke grumbled to himself and jumped off, leaving the rest of us on the roof.
This isn't good…I've got a bad feeling all the sudden.
"Waa!" Sakura sniffled as she cried.
"Come on…stop crying." I said rubbing her back.
"Don't worry." Sensei jumped down by Sakura and I while smiling "Everything is gonna be fine, it'll all be back to normal before you know it."
Somehow…I just…
"Sorry." Naruto walked passed.
"I think it might be best for all of us to head home and get a little sleep." I suggested "We've all had a long day."
