Reunion

In the Iron wall John is walking by prisoners, who were discussing whether the rumors of Orochimaru's death were true. John just ignored them and kept on walking until he went into an empty room, rest the sword that he was given by Zabuza on a couch and sat on the couch himself.

Ten minutes later walks in a girl with red hair down to her shoulder. John easily recognizes her, as the girl, he saved during the Chūnin Exams. All the time he was looking at her she asked him who he was and why he was here.

"I see you're not as shy and weak as you were back during the Chūnin Exams, when I saved you from that bear Karin." John said. Karin now realizing that it was John began to blush and walk over to John and sat on the couch next to him.

Before Karin can say anything the door opens and in walks, Sasuke and Suigetsu "great timing Sasuke I just got here myself" John said

"hey that's the sword I've been looking for how did you get it? " Suigetsu asked

"this thing. it was given to me by Zabuza. but I don't use it at all. and since you want it and I don't use it you can have it." John said as he picked up the sword and threw it at Suigetsu.

"why are you giving me the sword? we don't even know each other!" Suigetsu asked.

"because we are going to be teammates and you can think of this as a favor, and I have these Swords that I use more " John said pointing to the twin swords on his back

"ok enough talking time to get down to the reason why we came here. Suigetsu go free the prisoners!" Sasuke said and threw Suigetsu the prison key and Suigetsu left the room. ''Karin I want you to join my team."

"I'll join you only because John is on the team," Karin said as she snuggled into John's left arm. Sasuke and John look at each other and shake their heads.

"alright let's meet up with Suigetsu and go get Jugo" Sasuke says.
