Hinata was jumping from tree to to tree as she trying to locate her two other squadmates.
"(I hope I can find them before they can get into a altercation...maybe they've worked out differences and caught Tora.)"
Hinata thought to herself as she continued looking for her team.
The young Hyuga thought back on Mikoto's words how would she even begin to stop her teammates from fighting, assuming they were.
"I have to find them quick."
Hinata activated her Byakugan to help track her friends faster.
"They probably put their differences aside and working together."
Hinata said to herself to calm her worries.
Meanwhile with Konohamaru and Sasuke.
The two boys were throwing various punches and kicks at each other their attacks colliding a few times and or landing a blow on one another.
Sasuke being the more trained one was graceful in his movements as he landed a punch on Konohamaru which sent the boy reeling back.
"Ah, that was a cheap shot!"
Konohamaru shouted
"There's no rules in a fight idiot!"
Sasuke aimed a kick on Konohamaru but Konohamaru then disappeared with a puff a smoke with a long appearing in his place.
"What?"
Sasuke was then punched in the face as he was sent back a few feet.
"Told ya I'd wipe the smug look off ya face."
Konohamaru teased Sasuke.
Sasuke merely grunted in frustration as he picked himself up and started running to Konohamaru.
Konohamaru smirked as he started running to Sasuke, the fact he can get some like Sasuke riled up makes him feel justified to try humble him with defeat.
"Have a taste of this!"
Konohamaru punches Sasuke in his face, but as the Uchiha reeled back he disappeared in a smoke cloud revealing a log in his place.
"Wha?"
Sasuke slammed his foot down on Konohamaru sending hus teammate straight to the ground.
"Give it up loser, you can't beat me ."
Sasuke said as he started walking off.
"Fire Style: Burning Ash!"
Sasuke quickly dodged small spread of fire.
"I ain't finished yet!"
Konohamaru shouted as put his together for another jutsu.
"So you have some skill."
Sasuke responded to Konohamaru as he put is hands to form a jutsu.
"Fire Style: Burning Ash!"
Konohamaru shouted.
"Fire Style: Fire Ball jutsu!"
Sasuke shouted.
Both boys unleashed their jutsu and the resulting clash of attacks caused a small explosion.
{Boom}
"What was that?"
Hinata looked around until she noticed a faint sight of if smoke in the distance.
"Byakugan."
Hinata's activated her kekkei genkai and looked to the distance where she two far away chakra signatures.
"Is that them."
Hinata started rushing to the area with haste.
Meanwhile Sasuke and Konohamaru had jutsu clash has burned part of the dry grass around them.
Both boys were were panting, neither are use to slinging a jutsu at someone before nor putting that much chakra into a attack before.
"You're pretty good Konohamaru but you can't beat a Uchiha. "
Sasuke huffed out as he struggled to get up due to the light chakra exhaustion.
" You ain't so bad yourself Sasuke, still a pretentious jerk"
Konohamaru said as he suffering from chakra exhaustion, same as Sasuke.
"What's that smell?"
Sasuke asked
"It kinda smells like a fire."
Konohamaru replied.
" Oh.....wait what!?"
Sasuke quickly noticed there was a surrounding them.
" Crap, did we do this?!"
Konohamaru quickly got to his feet and helped Sasuke up.
" Shit, you know any water style jutsu?"
Sasuke turned to Konohamaru.
" No, I was just gonna ask you that. "
Konohamaru replied.
"Crap! I don't know how we're gonna put out these fires. "
Sasuke cursed.
"Help! "
Konohamaru shouted.
Hinata landed onto the field and in front of her teammates.
"8 Trigrams Palm Rotation!"
Hinata spun around and expanded her chakra sphere just enough to extinguish the surrounding flames, once the fires were put out Hinata stopped spinning as she started breathing heavily herself.
"Hinata?!"
Sasuke said surprised.
"Wow Hinata you were amazing!"
Konohamaru exclaimed.
"Y you idiots!"
Hinata shouted as she turned to the two boys.
"Do you have any idea what could've happened if I didn't show up, you almost got really hurt."
Hinata started laying into her two teammates as she started turning red from slight anger.
"W we're sorry Hinata honest but I had to teach this conceited loser a lesson."
Sasuke tried to defend his actions as he was slowly inching away to try and escape Hinata's wrath.
"Hm, I don't have to take this, I'm the honorable grandson so we to treat me, with respect."
Konohamaru scoffed as he turned to start leaving.
"No you will stay and listen!"
Hinata tapped Konohamaru on his solar plexus causing Konohamaru to stop in his tracks.
"W why can't I move!?"
Konohamaru shouted in horror.
"You're gonna stay and listen."
Hinata said to Konohamaru as she pushed onto the ground.
"D did you paralyze?"
Sasuke asked in horror.
"Don't get any ideas Sasuke."
Hinata turned to the young Uchiha.
"Y yes ma'am."
Sasuke immediately stopped in his tracks.
"Why would you fight each other, we're supposed to be a team but all you two do is bicker, I want all of us to be strong shinobi. "
Hinata started tearing up.
" Why can't you two do that. "
Hinata collapsed to her knees as she started wiping tge tears off her face.
Sasuke and Konohamaru looked at each other., they felt kind of bad
Sasuke sighed.
"I'm sorry,"
Sasuke said as he looked off to the side and offering his hand to Konohamaru.
Konohamaru who had now gain back control of his body shook Sasuke's hand in response.
"Yeah me too."
Konohamaru replied.
Hinata looked up and smiled.
"D does that mean?"
"Yeah we'll work together or whatever."
Sasuke blushed as he he offered his hand to Hinata to help her up.
Hinata wiped away her tears as she took Sasuke's hand, whom of which helped her up on her feet.
"O okay let's do this."
Hinata stammered out but not before her stomach growled.
" Uh I'm sorry. "
She blushed
" Actually I'm hungry too. "
Sasuke commented.
" I'm starving! "
Konohamaru exasperated.
" Oh that reminds me."
Hinata brought out three bento boxes.
"Lady Mikoto brought lunches for us when she came to pick up Naruto."
Hinata handed out the three bento boxes.
" Dang, I did forget lunch"
Sasuke said as he took his lunch.
"She made one for all of us?"
Konohamaru asked.
Hinata nodded as she handed Konohamaru a bento.
"Aw yes!"
Konohamaru was quick to start eating.
"Hn, no manner? That checks out."
Sasuke muttered as he started eating.
"Sasuke be nice."
Hinata said to the young uchiha.
After eating lunch everyone was full and energized.
"Alright! "
Konohamaru shot up as he felt energized.
"Yeah, my mom's cooking does that."
Sasuke said as he stood up.
Hinata stood to her feet.
"Alright we should plan on how to catch Tora."
Hinata explained to her teammates..
"I've been told she usually escapes into forest like this so we should try the wooded area near the village gate and trianglate around some trees"
Konohamaru suggested.
" So you actually do have brain in that big head of yours "
Sasuke said teasing Konohamaru.
" You trying to start something, and yes I can do basic strategy, I'm not a idiot."
Konohamaru said to Sasuke.
" That's a great idea Konohamaru, you're really smart. ."
Hinata complimented the boy
Konohamaru blushed as he rubbed the back of his head.
"Oh well you know I'm not that good."
The boy stammered out.
"Shouldn't we get started.."
Sasuke announced interrupting the moment.
"Yes, we should get started before it gets dark or we'll never find her."
Hinata said.
The three shinobi the headed out to the wooded area in front of the leaf village gate to enact their plan.
Just like Konohamaru said Tora was in the clearing of the forest  after a hour chasing around the cat, the group eventually caught Tora.
