As soon as the tag exploded Sasuke, Naruto, and Sakura with Katsuyu and Gamatatsu jumped out of the hole that was created. From the hole they were brought into a familiar forest area, near the spot where they found Gamatatsu.

"If I remember correctly, the town was that way." Katsuyu said in a calm voice and Sasuke nodded, taking the lead.

"The third seal." Tarko muttered.  "They blew it up!" He exclaimed.  Kabuto kept a solemn look as he exited the room and made his way to the third seal.  Tarko followed behind keeping his distance. 

Kabuto was amused.  Of course he wasn't too happy considering that the summoning circle he created was smudged in all the commotion, but that could be fixed easily.  If he had the right ingredients for the right ink.  Kabuto couldn't deny the fact that he was amused though.  Even though he didn't see their faces, by sensing their chakra Kabuto could tell they were young.  Thirteen maybe fourteen.  He was amused by how they could get into his base so easily.  He couldn't hear them, so how did they communicate.  What they did seemed so coordinated. 

Kabuto slowed his pace as he saw sunlight peeking out from a hole in the ceiling.  He chuckled to, stepping out and looking into the forest. 

$&$&$&$&$&$&$&$&$&$&$&$&

The three decided to test their luck and set up camp.  As much as Sasuke wanted to continue going, he couldn't.  He was exhausted, and he could probably say the same for Naruto and Sakura.  As soon as they set up their camp Naruto went to sleep, Gamatatsu laying by his side.  Sakura yawned and put her hand around her neck, her hands searching for something.

"Sasuke." She called in a frantic voice, when her hands couldn't find what she was looking for.  "The necklace.  It's gone."  Sasuke turned to her with surprised eyes.  "It must of fell off or something."  Sakura looked down sadly.

"I can get you another one Sakura." Sasuke said, not knowing what he should do to help.

"But Sasuke, I don't want another one.  That one meant so much to me." Sakura mumbled.

$&$&$&$&$&$&$&$&

A young raven haired boy stormed out of the park, his face red in frustration.  He stomped past his older brother who stared at him with curious eyes. 

"Sasuke?" Itachi asked, his eyes full of question.  "What's the matter?"

"Aniki!  That girl was being mean to me!  She said my hair looked like a duck, and then she called me a butt head!" Sasuke exclaimed as he continued to stomp to the Uchiha clan compound. 

"Well why did she do that Sasuke?" Itachi asked.

"Tch.  She got mad at me because I called her a weirdo and said she had a big forehead.  BUT SHE STARTED IT BY LOOKING AT ME WEIRDLY!"  Sasuke added the last part quickly and sprinted to their house which was now in view.  Itachi sighed before following.  As Sasuke stomped past his mother and into his room, Itachi entered the house.  

"Itachi?  What happened?"  She asked concerned for her younger son.

"Sasuke got into a fight with someone at the park."  Itachi said simply.  Mikoto sighed and began walking to Sasuke's room, where the little boy was glaring at the ground.

"Sasuke." Mikoto began softly.  "Itachi told me you got into a fight with someone at the park."  Sasuke looked up at his mother and crossed his arms.

"She started it." He mumbled.

"She?  You got into a fight with a girl?  Sasuke where are your manners?" Mikoto asked  "You don't fight girl-"

"SHE STARTED IT!" Sasuke claimed.

"How?"

"She was looking at me weirdly.....and so I told her she had a big forehead."  Mikoto sighed.

"So you started it by calling her a name."  Mikoto said and Sasuke protested quickly.  "No buts Sasuke.  If you didn't call her a name then there wouldn't be a fight.  I want you to go apologize to her." 

&$&$&$&$&$&$&$&$&$&$&$&$&$&$&$

Sasuke reluctantly walked to the park with his brother the next day.  Gripping something in his hand as he spotted the pink haired girl playing in the sand box.  That was his play spot.  Taking a deep breath he walked up to her and tapped the girl's shoulder.  

"Um hi." He said quietly.  The younger girl scoffed and turned back around.  "I-I'm sorry about yesterday.  I shouldn't have said those mean things."  The pink haired girl scoffed again.

"You're right, you shouldn't have." She mumbled.  Sasuke put his hand out.

"My mom wanted me to give you this as an apology gift."  He opened up his fisted hand to reveal a necklace with a cherry blossom tree charm.  Sakura stared at it in awe.  

"Really?  That's for me?" She asked.  "But I was mean to you too."  Sasuke rolled his eyes.

"Just take it." He mutter, a small blush tainting his cheeks.  Sakura smiled and grabbed, putting it on almost immediatley.  She looked at Sasuke and gave him a smile.

"I'm Sakura, Sakura Haruno." She said with a grin.

"Sasuke Uchiha," He turned to Itachi. "and this is my big brother Itachi."

"Nice to meet you Itchy!" Sakura said.  Itachi held back the glare as an irk  mark appeared on his forehead.

"Itchy?"

&$&$&$&$&$&$&$&$&$&$&$&$

Sasuke sighed, running his hand through his hair.

"Go to sleep Sakura." He mumbled.  "You need to rest, we'll find it.  I promise."  Sakura nodded sleepily before laying down, and falling into a deep slumber.  Sasuke sighed frusturatedly and looked up at the night sky.  'What day was it?' He asked himself.  They could guess the time by the position of the sun or moon, but he wasn't sure of the day.  He felt something brush against his hand and looked down to see Katsuyu.

"Sasuke-san, you should rest." She said in a motherly tone.  

"I can't we need a look out.  We don't know Kabuto's motives."  He countered and Katsuyu gasped.

"Kabuto?  He's alive?" She asked in a whisper.  Sasuke nodded

"He's the guy that was in the cave.  He was trying to summon something.  That's why you and the two toads are here.  Kabuto created some type of summoning circle.  I think he was trying to summon something else though.  Something big.  Wait, what do you mean 'he's alive'?"  Katsuyu sighed.

"I think it would be better if Orochimaru-sama explained.

&$&$&$&$&$&&$&$&$&$&$&$&$&$

Of course, we all know that they're gonna meet Kabuto again.  But I want your input.  I want to hear your ideas, and maybe, I might use one of them.

How do you think they're gonna meet?

A/N: Short chapter I KNOW, I'M SORRY!  I have excuses but I'm not going to give them......okay maybe I will.

I ADMIT THAT I HAVE BEEN SLACKING OFF....I'm on spring break for two weeks so I've mainly been playing games and not writing like I should have been.  I was looking at the last chapter and OH MY GOSH THE GRAMMAR AND ALL THE MISTAKES!  

Please don't criticize me for mispelled words or bad grammar, this is my first story and I will be going back and editing this story once it's done.
