Naruto does not belong to me but to Masashi Kishimoto
It was silent after the scream Gaara gave. Sasuke stood a few feet away from his not sure what to do until a weird shaky feeling came over him. It wasn't nausea but something else like fear. It made chills go down sasuke's spine. The sand dome shook for a second and then collapsed showing Gaara's form.
" Huh?.. what going on?.. My eyes are.." Before Naruto could finish his sentence, he passed out right next to shikamaru. A loud puff of smoke appeared in the Hokage's section causing sasuke to drift his attention to the spectators box. The Kazekage forced the third Hokage on top of the sections box. A purple barrier appeared causing confusion.
" What's going on here?" sasuke questioned and then looked in front of him were temari and Kankuro appeared next to Gaara.
" I must kill him.."" Gaara stepped one foot forward but kankuro stepped in front of him.
" There's no point in continuing this fight " kankuro said a bit desperately.
" That's right don't forget our mission" temari exclaimed to Gaara trying to deter Gaara from sasuke.
" Out of my way " Garra used his right hand to move Kankuro out of his way. A sand nin appeared in front of the sand siblings.
" What are you three doing now? Can't you see the operations already under way" He sounded mad. Gaara started groaning and held his head in pain. The proctor appeared in front of sasuke.
" What is going on!? Tell me!" sasuke did not like being out of the circle. Gaara started groaning louder.
" Gaara!" Gaara knelt on the floor still holding his head in pain
" What's wrong?" Kankuro asked. Temari kneeled over to look at Gaara.
" His wounds are worse than I thought and his chakra is almost completely drained away" Temari explained to the sand nin and kankuro.
" Wait what about using that.." Temari cut kankuro off.
" It's impossible right now" She sounded worried.
" You fool it's all because you tried to transform before the signal was given" The sand nin said sounding angry. Kanjuro turned to the nin.
" So what do we do now? We need Gaara for this" kankuro said. It wasnt until a couple of seconds later when the sand nin answered.
" Gaara's the trump card to the village hidden in the sand. We have to get him to play his part no matter what. Alright now you two take Gaara and tend to his wounds. As soon as his chakara has been restored, the operation will continue." The sand nin said desperately.
" you got it" Kankuro put Gaara's right arm over his shoulder and lifted himself and Gaara.
" What about you sensei?" Temari asked.
" I'm going to take care of these guys" The sand nin turned back to the proctor and sasuke.
" Do you really think that things will go according to your plan" The proctor did not sound too happy.
" I'll make sure.. that they do" It went eerily silent after the sand nin spoke.
" GO!" the sand nin yelled to the sand siblings.
" right" and they left.( see what i did there lol)
" Now is the host of this party Orochimaru? sasuke gasped at the proctors question.
" Don't know and don't care, now lets heat things up" The sand nin got into his stance.
" Sasuke I'm sorry but the chunnin exam ends here for you. You've already achieved chunnin level, your leaf village shinobi. So put your training to good use" The proctor said to sasuke.
" In other words, I'm supposed to take down Gaara right. Our match continues" sasuke said.
" Just be careful, it's the real thing now. Not a match" The proctor warned sasuke.
" ok i'll go then" sasuke said but was thinking otherwise.' naruto come quickly I don't think I can beat this guy at least not alone' sasuke left following the sand siblings.
With Naruto, well he was still asleep drooling all over the floor. Sakura made it to Naruto after a couple of minutes.' release' she made a hand sign and put two fingers over Naruto. Naruto groaned and opened his eyes. He sat up confused while rubbing his left eye.
" Hey what's going on sakura?" Naruto asked confused. Sakura's eyes widened.
" Get down!" Sakura pulled Naruto down missing the kunia that was about to hit him. " I'll fill you in later just stay down" She crawled over to where Shikamaru was who was right next to naruto. Her eyebrow twitched when she looked closely at Shikamaru's face.
" Shikmaru you were awake this whole time" she whispered annoyed. The dog nin that kakashi gave to sakura went close to Shikamaru's leg and bit him.
" YAHHHH!" shikamaru started shaking his leg to shake the dog off.
" You released the genjustu too, you faker. Why were you pretending to be asleep this whole time!?" she pointed to him.
" I didn't want to get involved, just give me a break. I couldn't care less about sasuke" shikamaru managed to get the dog off him and was holding him but the dog bit him again but in the hand this time.
" yahhh!" and shikamaru lifted his hand with the dog on it. Kunia's hit the wall next to shikamaru's hand. Naruto started looking around.
" What is all this woah" Naruto didn't notice the ninja that appeared behind him.
" Watch out!" sakura yelled but before naruto could turn around, the ninja was punched into the wall.
" so fast" the ninja said.
" Not just fast powerful" it was gai-sensei, he pushed the ninja hard enough that he went through the wall breaking it.
" Gai-sensei" sakura said shocked. Kakashi appeared in the middle of sakura and naruto.
" Now i'll explain the mission, as soon as I do go through that opening. First, track down sasuke and stop him then find a safe location and await further orders" Kakashi explained. Naruto sat still at the mention of sasuke.
" Did something happen to sasuke!" naruto yelled worried for his lover. Sakura crawled over to naruto.
" I'll tell you what happened on the way" She grabbed him and left through the whole.
" Why me.. what a drag" shikamaru complained.
" Listen whiner" the dog nin spoke
" huh" shikamaru turned his head towards the dog.
" Look if this mission a success as a reward i'll let you touch my paw or my pads. So there's no reason to sulk. C'mon there really soft" The dog raised his paw to show shikamaru.
" w-what" shikamaru grew confused.
" No one ever wants to shake BUT MY PAWS ARE SO SOFT AND SUPPLE!" The dog brought his paw closer to shikamaru." Forget it lets go" the dog bit shikamaru's hand and lead him out of the hole.
" Are they going to be okay by themselves?" Gai asked kakashi.
" Yes they'll be fine. Pakkun will protect them as long as they don't go to far" Kakashi said not knowing that someone else was listening to him. And he left leaving nothing but the wind.
