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. 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 see all your moves before you make them" Tayuya says with a evil smile on her face

"what do you mean sasuke is in the box and he 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 jumps 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 said as he 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 said. before he looks at John and seems surprised to see him. and John senses this and put his hand on a kunai that he has hidden

"listen fat so don't slow us down so you can eat more. you see that coffin. you're 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're not the real Jirobo" Kidomaru said before throwing the coffin at Tayuya " you all go on i'll catch up"
(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 can't 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 throws a wire that ties him up. the bomb starts to catch on fire and kiba jumps to save akamaru

so Kiba jumps on the tree branch and goes to unties the wire but the bomb goes off as Sakon is jumping onto the same tree " akamaru, Kiba" naruto yells as Sakon, Kaiba and Akamaru fall down into a giant crevasse below the tree,

at this time while Naruto and Shikamaru weren't paying attention John jumped up be hind them and said "i'm sorry i have to do this. but it's the only way" before hitting them knocking them both out. John put a note in Shikamarus pocket

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 "we better get going. we don't want to wast anymore time" Tayuya shakes her head in agreement before they jump away

a few minutes later Kankuro and Temari arrive "what happen here. they are out cold but they don't have a single bruise on them. who or what could have done this" Temari asks

"i have a idea who did this but you aren't going to like it" Kankuro said looking down at Naruto and Shikamaru

"who did it" Temari asked

" John he's the only one that we know who could do this " Kankuro said

" no John would never do this unless he had a good reason" Temari said in disbelief

" we'll it's either he did this or he was forced. remember the mission was to bring Sasuke back. maybe they threatened to hurt sasuke if he didn't attack these two" Kankuro said pointing at Naruto and Shikamaru "but what doesn't add up to it is why John isn't here"

"that doesn't matter right now we need to get these three back to the leaf village" Gaara said after he jumped up to Kankuro and Temari carrying Kiba and Akamaru. Temari and Kankuro nod in agreement before they pick up naruto and shikamaru before leaving.

John and tayuya are walking. when all of a sudden the coffin that John is carrying with sasuke in it starts to smoke "wow. what the hell. is the awakening almost done" John asked as he set the coffin down

"yes won't be long now" Tayuya said with a smile on her face "it be best if we back away" so they both back away. and the coffin starts to smoke more before it explodes.

as the smoke settles sasuke is standing there laughing "haha. so this is the power he was talking about. i love it" sasuke said

i'm glade you're happy and everything. but we should get going just incase there's more leaf ninja following us" Tayuya said before walking off.

sasuke turned around to John "so who did they send and what happened to the other three" Sasuke asked

"i think the other three are dead and they sent Kiba, Neji, Choji, Shikamaru and Naruto" when John said naruto he looked a little mad

"who fought Naruto" Sasuke asked

"i did but i only knocked him out because i know you want to fight him" John said

"good because i want to be the one to take him out" Sasuke said with a evil grin on his face. before they ran to catch up with Tayuya.- - - - - -

back in the leaf Village Kakashi is walking out of the Hokage building. as all of John girlfriends come running up "Kakashi. do you know where John is we haven't seen him in Two days do you know where he is" Ino asked

"i know. i'm pretty much up to speed now" Kakashi said as he walks up to the girls "you all don't have to worry about a thing. just believe in John "

at this time the sand Ninja are running up to them on their way to the hospital "Temari what happened to them" Sakura asks

"I can't believe i'm saying this but we think that John was the one who did this to them to protect Sasuke" Temari said

"no i don't believe that. John wouldn't do this or betray the village without a good reason" Tenten said.

"that's what i said. he must have a good reason for doing this" Temari said. after saying this Kankuro tries to get a better grip of holding Shikamaru by throwing him on his shoulder. but when he did that the note John put in Shikamaru pocket falls out"what's this" Sakura said as she picks up the note everyone gathers around here to look at the note "it's for Lady Tsunade from John "
