encounter after encounter

the next morning the sound ninja stop walking "Sasuke i think this is far enough. we already passed the leaf village" the blue haired ninja says

"so whats up" sasuke asks

"Orochimaru gave us a very important task to take care of when we reach this point. and that is you must die. just this once. hahaha you must take one of these awakening pills. they will make your curse mark stronger. but to do this you must die for a few hours. but you don't have two worry that's why me and my friends are here" the blue hair ninja hands sasuke the pills "will cast a barrier ninjutsu to lesson the effect of the transition. instead of dieing you'll only be suspended in a state of half death for a while"

"i guess i'm in your hands" sasuke says before taking a pill

"get ready quickly or we'll lose him" Tayuya says. they summon a coffin and put sasuke in it and sealing him in it. and they start walking again with the big orange haired ninja carries the box with sasuke in it "it looks like we got company and looks just like one"

"no it's two. get ready" John says. as two Leaf ninja appears in front of them

"they work for Orochimaru, and by the looks of it they just came from the Leaf village" the leaf ninja with a scar on his face

"and John is with them" the other leaf ninja with a toothpick in his mouth. but right as the words came out of his mouth John hits both leaf ninja in the chest slowing down there heartbeats. as John hit the Leaf ninja with the toothpick he slips a note into his shirt.

"wow you got a lot stronger and faster sense the exam and i see why Orochimaru wants you to work with him" Tayuya says

"yep a lot has changed sense then. but right now is not the time to talk. i have a feeling more leaf ninja are coming" John says before he starts walking again

a few minutes later Shizune and another leaf ninja show up (but John and the sound ninja are gone) shizune sees them on the ground and runs over to them and checks there hartbeat and they are beating slow "this isn't good" she says as she start to heal them

"both of them taken down. it's impossible. i'm going Shizune. i'm going to find them and make them pay" the other leaf ninja says

"no you wont" shizune says

"she's right. they were the four ninjas that work for Orochimaru. and the one to do this to us was John and he took us down with one move" the leaf ninja with a toothpick says as he moves his hand inside his shirt "and he left this note when he hit me" Shizune takes the note and reads it.

John and the four sound ninja are taking a rest " two of my trip wires have been tripped" Kidomaru says so John jumps in a tree and wait for the traps to be set. the first one is set when the blue haired sound ninja throws a kunai with explosive seal on it sending Shikamaru and Neji flying out of the bushes

"well well i thought i was flushing a snake out of the bush. but all i got was a couple of mice" the blue sound ninja says

"wait a minute. calm down. we came here to negotiate not to fight. can't we talk this over like reasonable people" Shikamaru asks

"ha don't forget about your friends shall we" Kidomaru says. sending Naruto, Kiba, and choji flying out of the trees. but as they are falling to the ground Kiba throws a smoke bomb that shikamaru uses to use his shadow possession jutsu to keep the sound ninja from moving.

yeah that's right you aren't the only ones that can spring a trap. and thanks for making me look good in front of the team" shikamaru says

"very impressive. but we have someone on are side that knows all your moves before you do" Tayuya says with a evil smile on her face"what do you mean sasuke is in the box and can't see any of this" neji says. at the same time John throws three kunai at shikamaru making him lose his focus on his jutsu and lets the sound ninja free. which in return gets them captured

John walks out from where he threw the kunais and walks to the sound ninja "ok i think we should get going" John says and looks at the orange haired ninja that captured Naruto and the rest of the group "when you are done with them catch up" John says as he hits him on his back and walks away with the rest of the sound ninja

a little later on " jirobo is pretty late isn't he" the blue haired ninja says

" he was but he just arrived" kidomaru says

" well it's about time. what took you so long" John asks

"sorry it took longer then a thought to eat all that losers chakra" Jirobo says

"listen fat so don't slow us down so you can eat more. you see that coffin. your the one who suppose to be carrying it. so do you job you slob" Tayuya says

"ok" jirobo says

"well well jirobo aren't you of awfully easy going today" the blue haired ninja says

"yeah so what" jirobo says

everyone stops "well it's just that i'm not going to be handing you over this coffin to you because you'r not the real Jirobo" Kidomaru says before throwing the coffin at Tayuya " you all go on i'll catch up" John hits Kidomaru on the back just like he did with the other sound ninja befote they leave

(forty five minutes later) "still no sign of Jirobo or Kidomaru. they must have ran into more trouble then they expected" Sakon says

"who cares about them. it's Orochimaru i'm more worried about. it's taken us more then a hole day and still only one third of the transition process is complete" Tayuya says "hold on a second"

"are we almost there" Sakon asks

"no we still have a ways to go. but take a look" Tayuya says and Sakon looks behind them and sees naruto kiba and Shikamaru are standing in a tree branch behind them "and now of course now we need them they are not here"

"sorry just us" naruto says "wait i know that jacket it cant be" John turns around " John what are you doing with the sound ninja"

"enough talking John Tayuya take sasuke and get out of here" Sakon says and they both try to leave but Shikamaru uses his shadow possession jutsu on Tayuya as naruto grabs the coffin and naruto kiba and shikamaru rub away with the coffin with John and Sakon chasing after them

John notices that akamaru is setting up bombs and Sakon runs right into them and sets one off but he survives and starts chasing after akamaru. but akamaru slips on a tree branch right next to a bomb and Sakon ties him up with wire. the bomb starts to catch on fire and kiba is to far away to grab akamaru.

so John jumps on the tree branch and unties the wire and jumps off the tree as the bomb goes off and Sakon is jumping onto the same tree " akamaru" naruto and kiba yell while shikamaru yells " John " Sakon falls down into a giant crevasse under the tree, while John comes out of the smoke holding akamaru

John hands akamaru over to Kiba "good to see you are ok John. i thought we lost you with that explosion" shikamaru says

"oh come on you know it's going to take more then that to take me down" John says with a smile on his face

"what's going on here. isn't John working with them. why are you talking like he didn't betray us" naruto asks

"because John is the one that left a note about sasuke leaving the village and was taking them down from the inside. didn't you notice that before he left the guy with the six arms that he hit him on the back" shikamaru asks and naruto and kiba shock there heads. "well that was John slowing down his heart and making it a lot easier for neji to beat. and i'm sure he did the same to the other guy Choji fought"

"yes that is exactly what i did. i also had a clone there to heal them just incase they needed it. but i'm sorry i have to do this. it's the only way" John says before hitting all three in the head knocking them out.

a minute later Tayuya shows up "where's Sakon" she asks.

John points down to the crevasse "he fell down there after a bomb went off" he says before grabbing the coffin and hands it to Tayuya "take Sasuke and get going. i'll finish them off" Tayuya shakes her head and she jumps away

John is trying to figure out how he is going to carry Naruto, Shikamaru, and Kiba. when a big gust of wind tries to knock him off the tree branch. "i think i know where that wind came from TEMARI" John says

Temari, Gaara, and Kankuro jump down from a tree branch up above "sorry John i thought you were a enemy from above. and with you standing over them it looked like you were about to attack them" Temari says

"i tried to tell her it was you but she didn't believe me" Gaara said

"it's alright. but sense you are here you can help me carry them back to the village" says before he picks up naruto an throws him over his shoulder

"sure. but what happened to them. who did this to them" Kankuro says as he picks up Kiba and Gaara picks up shikamaru. and Temari holds Akamaru

"i did this to them. other wise they wouldn't have let sasuke leave" John said before he jumped off back off towards the leaf village.
