"Alright remember just don't make eye contact or say anything" Naruto stated making Izumi narrow her eyes.

"I'm not a dog" Izumi muttered as she stared at the building in front of her it was completely isolated from any civilization it looked like an old crummy building that would fall apart at any moment. As the two walked towards the house Izumi narrowed her eyes at the figure of an old man sat down with a straw hat on his head and he was smoking a pipe.

Approaching the old man Naruto raised an eyebrow when the old man clapped his hands together and pointed at Naruto.

"It would seem that fate has an interesting card to play today" The old man said his head rising a little so part of his face could be seen and a gleaming yellow eye could be seen underneath the hat.

However a sandal hitting the old man in the face caused him to roll back in pain immediately the old man stood up his height wasn't impressive, he wasn't very tall and stood at a three foot five. The straw hat on the old man's head stayed intact so none of his facial features could be shown due to the shadow.

"What was that for?" The old man asked looking at Izumi and her eyebrow ticked and her arms were crossed.

"I thought I saw something disgusting and I was right" Izumi stated with a stoic voice making the old man grumble before pointing at Naruto.

"I've heard some interesting news that you may find interesting...a little birdie of mine told me a certain other blonde haired Namikaze has been getting himself into trouble with Orochimaru" The old man said making Naruto's eyes widen before he rushed forward and grabbed the old man.

"Speak...now" Naruto said his voice completely serious and the old man's face turned into a grin of some sort before he began to whisper into Naruto's ear causing Naruto's eyes to widen further before he disappeared in a yellow flash.

Izumi who had watched Naruto disappear sweat dropped a little...he was planning on returning right? Looking at the old man Izumi cracked her knuckles as she saw his eye gleaming under the straw hat again.

"Now I suggest you tell me what you've just told that fool" Izumi stated walking towards the old man cracking her knuckles with a stoic face.

With Nimato

Nimato stared in disbelief as the sun shined in his eyes standing before him looking down on him was Sasuke.

The team had finally found the location to Orochimaru's lair due to capturing Kabuto however the entire lair was an underground maze, immediately the group had split up to search the area.

Nimato had noticed almost straight away the sound of a large explosion and had immediately run towards it where he had come upon an opening that looked to be the remains of a bedroom that had been blown apart. When Nimato had looked up towards the higher ground he saw Sasuke staring down at him with a cold expression written all over his face.

"Nimato" Sakura shouted as she ran into the opening as well and like Nimato she looked up and widened her eyes as standing there was her crush and her ex-teammate Sasuke.

"So you've come as well...Sakura" Sasuke stated tilting his head to the side as Yamato came into the picture.

"So that's my replacement huh?" Sasuke questioned looking at Sai before turning to Nimato his eyes narrowing and in a blink of an eye Sasuke had disappeared and was standing right in front of Nimato.

"I thought you had said...your dream was to become Hokage...yet you're going to be wasting your life here killed by me" Sasuke said his arm was on Nimato's shoulder while his other hand was reaching for the sword around his waist and begun to unsheathe it.

"How can I become Hokage...when I can't even save one friend" Nimato replied back and both his and Sasuke's eyes met neither one willing to back down to the other's will.

"I see...it's a shame" Sasuke muttered and just as his blade was about to skewer into Nimato's side Sai had stepped up and grabbed Sasuke's forearm stopping the blade going any further.

"Smart...you stopped the attack not from the blade but from the source" Sasuke stated his eyes narrowing as he noticed Sakura tightening her black gloves and ran at him with the intention of hitting him.

Quickly kicking Sai away sending the pale skinned man away with a painful gasp spinning around on his heel while grabbing Nimato's wrist Sasuke threw him into the wall and also dodged a punch that was thrown by Sakura by doing a backflip kicking her back into the wall as well.

Seeing Yamato clap his hands together and launching large wooden tendrils towards him Sasuke used his sword and to stab the blade into the top of the tendril before flipping over and running down the wooden tendril and activated his three tomoe Sharingan.

Yamato gritted his teeth at Sasuke's speed and quickly threw his other arm out and it immediately turned into wood and flew out towards Sasuke who with the help of his Sharingan was able to slide underneath the tendril and kicked Yamato in the face and using the momentum he had Sasuke went through hand signs.

"Chidori Nagashi (One thousand birds current)" Sasuke said placing his hand on the ground causing a large electric current around the area hitting team seven.

Using the distraction Sasuke stabbed his blade into the right side of Yamato's chest making the Jounin grunt in pain however thinking fast he placed his hand into a seal and the sword was pushed out of his body by a small tendril of wood.

Looking at the destruction he had caused Sasuke sighed Sakura, Sai and Nimato were down from his Chidori attack and Yamato was wounded however feeling a large amount of malice Sasuke turned towards Nimato who had a red aura surrounding him and Sasuke had seen this before it was the same aura he had at the valley of the end.

Looking into Nimato's eyes Sasuke soon found himself within a dark and damp place turning to his side he noticed Nimato staring at him in shock however soon another red aura appeared and took the shape of a foxes head it's gleaming red eyes pierced into Sasuke's Sharingan.

"Your chakra...it's similar to 'his' Uchiha Madara...no yours has the potential to be worse" The voice of the Kyuubi echoed throughout the area however Sasuke narrowed his eyes at the fox before grabbing it's nose.

"And am I meant to know who that is?" Sasuke questioned before squeezing the fox's nose making it explode successfully suppressing the power of the Kyuubi.

Sasuke opened his eyes once again and found himself back outside in the area he had just been in and jumped back up to the higher ground he had been on before running through hand signs and raised his arm to signal his next jutsu.

However before he could call out his attack or finish the attack he felt an arm grip firmly around his forearm stopping him from moving completely.

"Oi...brats should play nice" Sasuke widened his eyes as he came face to face with Naruto Namikaze his form completely towered over that of the young Uchiha.
