Sasuke Uchiha and Shiori Hyuga have been fond of each other since they were very young. Despite being from different clans, their parents are friends, so their families are close. That's why Sasuke and Shiori have known each other when they were in...
Shiori's Pov "You'll fight me for it?" Kabuto says
"But Sasuke" I say
"Hold on a second, is this a joke or what?" Naruto asks angrily
"Are you serious?" Kabuto asks
"Hmm?" Sakura, Naruto, and I look at Kabuto curiously
"Perfectly. Sorry, but I don't have time to play nice" Sasuke answers
"Back off Sasuke. In case you've forgotten, this guy saved our butts" Naruto says angrily
"Naruto's got a point" I say
"Yeah, we don't want to be ungrateful or anything" Sakura says
"Shut up" Sasuke says
"Ahh. But Sasuke" Sakura says sadly
"And Shiori, who's side are you on anyway?" Sasuke says, looking at me
"Oh, umm yours of course" I say awkwardly as I step closer to Sasuke
"But Naruto and Sakura's right. We owe him one" I add
"It can't be helped, it's either him or us. Out here, it's all about surviving and winning, nothing else matters" Sasuke replies
"Hmm. You're lying" Kabuto smiles
"He is?" Naruto asks
"Come on, admit it. For all your tough talk, your heart really isn't in it. If it was true, if winning was really the only thing that mattered to you, why openly challenge me to a fight? Why announce it and put me up my guard? Why not just jump me when my back was turned? After all, that's what a Ninja would do" Kabuto says
"Hmm. That's pretty deep"—Naruto

"It's okay. Actually, I admire you for it. So here's what I'll do. I'll show you the path you should follow, but let's go. It's best we get out of here. The smell of that cooking fire is going to draw every wild beast in the forest and not only animals, but the competition too" Kabuto says as he glance at the trees, I look at where he's looking and see a Ninja looking at us. The Ninja goes away once he notice Kabuto and I looking at him

"Oh yeah. Just think about it. What do you think is the most efficient way of finding the scrolls in an area as large as this? To go searching through the forest for them?" Kabuto asks
"Ah no?"—Sakura
