Book 1: Sakura Heart (Kiba Love Story)

Chapter 19

Sakuya's P. O. V:

We watch as a giant centipede crawls along a tree, before an equally large snake appears in the branches and swallows a pigeon whole, making me feel freaked out.

"This whole place just completely creeps me out," Sakura says fearfully.

"Just as long as we don't run into that, or spiders, I'll be fine," I think wearily, feeling both my eyes twitching violently.

Anko says, chuckling, "It should. They call it "The Forest of Death." Soon enough, you're gonna find out why."

Naruto hmphs before sticking his butt out and placing the backs of his hands on his hips. He then begins waving his butt as he mocks, ""They call it "The Forest of Death, and soon enough you're gonna find out why!" Do your worst! You're not gonna scare me away! I can handle anything!!" He points at Anko.

Anko gives a closed eye smile as she says, "So... it looks like we've got ourselves a tough guy." She then whips out a kunai knife from her sleeve and throws it at Naruto. It slices his left cheek before embedding into the ground by a female Hidden Grass ninja with long dark hair wearing a wide brimmed hat. Anko flashes behind the stunned Naruto. "Are you tough enough to handle this? You're not afraid, are you?" Sue says in a fierce whisper. Anko cups Naruto's right cheek. "Tough guys like you usually leave their blood all over this forest."

Anko suddenly whips around as a female Grass ninja appears right behind her, with Anko's kunai held in her tongue, and points another kunai at the Grass ninja. I narrow my eyes as I notice the tongue is split in two at the end. Gross.
