Balanced Craziness

Grey clouds filled the night sky as a chilled breeze soundlessly flew across the terrain. Sasuke was perched up high in a tree overhanging the cliff's edge, eyes searching every inch of the land exposed to him. The east side was completely barren except for a few rocks and boulders while the west side contained the dark shadows of the forest trees that stretched long and far. The shadows led a straight, dark path directly to Sasuke's main goal: a building.

You see, this building is very important as it is commonly used for a rest point for ninja on the run. And currently the very group of ninja Sasuke and Naruto are after are in this building. While Naruto is in there sneaking the scroll out, Sasuke has the job of being a lookout for any potential threats that could be around the outside of the building. And just in case Naruto has trouble on the inside, a plan was already made yesterday.

"We need a plan in case we get separated," Sasuke announced suddenly while putting out the fire used to make lunch.

Naruto opened one eye and looked up at Sasuke from where she was napping on the ground, "Like in case something happens and we need back-up?"

"Exactly." Sasuke stated as he sat opposite of Naruto.

Naruto took her hands out from behind her head and placed them in her lap as she sat up. "What did you have in mind? Are we just going to shout to each other that we need help or what?"

"Shouting wouldn't be the smartest idea because that will tell the enemy exactly what we're doing," Sasuke pointed out. "I was thinking a chakra signal that way we wouldn't have to use words. Nothing complex though, in case one of us is low on chakra and we need to make the signal."

The blonde haired ninja nodded, "Okay that sounds good. What did you have in mind?"

"I was thinking of just simply flaring up your chakra, you know? Just letting your chakra pulse out of your body that way the other person can feel it and know you need help. But we can't flare up our chakra just once and I feel like twice still wouldn't be enough of a signal…" Sasuke trailed off.

Naruto slowly nodded her head in understanding. "So… three times? Okay I can do that." Then she suddenly had a thought, "But what if we're out of chakra? We won't be able to signal to the other at all."

Sasuke looked straight at her and spoke without hesitation. "Well if you really want to be saved then you should find a way to make that signal."

Naruto landed silently next to Sasuke on the tree branch. "Got the scroll, bastard," she said smiling.

"Okay then, let's start heading back."

It was in the late afternoon the next day where both young ninja were gliding through the treetops in an effort to get to the Hidden Leaf Village faster. They both had a quick nap to re-energize and were surely going to need it if they kept their pace up. Neither ninja said a word to the other as it was obvious they wanted the scroll delivered as quickly as possible without any interruptions. The quicker they are able to leave this mountaintop, the quicker they will be able to scale down it, and the quicker they will be able to make it to the village.

Realizing the mountain's over ledge was a few yards ahead, Sasuke and Naruto sped up. They didn't, however, realize the large boulder aimed towards their heads until a second before contact. Moving quickly both teens maneuvered out of the way, flipping in the air, and landed solidly on the ground causing a slight crack in the hard surface beneath both their feet.

When both ninja looked up, they saw seven rogues smirking in their direction. "I believe you have something that belongs to us," the leader spoke smugly.

"Actually," Sasuke spoke. "It belongs to the Tea Country, not you. You stole it, remember?"

The leader's smirk slowly came to a frown and he sneered in distaste. "I got the smartass. You six go after the girl."

In an instant the six criminals were surrounding Naruto. Without hesitation, she pulled out a dozen kunai and gracefully threw them towards the one in front of her. The kunai flew through the air quickly but missed their target as he jumped. This gave Naruto the opening she needed to get out of the circle and, using speed that took years of training, she sped off to the other side of the clearing. As she was running she heard the shout of the rogue leader and turned just in time to see Sasuke narrowly miss the fist aimed at his head as it impacted into one of the surrounding trees and completely destroyed it. Her eyes widened and just as she was about to yell out to ask Sasuke if he needed help, another boulder was flying towards her.

She ducked and rolled to the side quickly using her momentum to spring off the ground. Two ninja surrounded her with their arms back ready to strike and Naruto grabbed each fist before she flung the two bodies into each other and threw them into the trees. As soon as she landed on the ground, she whipped out a kunai just in time to block the one aimed at her heart and punched her attacker in the face with enough force to throw him back a few feet. She quickly glanced to her right to see Sasuke aiming massive amounts of fireballs at the burly rogue leader and decided that he was okay by himself for a few more minutes. When she turned her attention back toward her group, she grimaced. Apparently she didn't knock the three who had the balls to attack her so the fight was still six versus one. Okay Uzamaki, Naruto smirked, time to get serious.

Naruto put her kunai away and summoned a large amount of chakra into the palm of her hand. The chakra spun rapidly as it formed a large sphere easily surpassing the size of a large boulder. When she finished expanding it to the size she wanted, she sent a smirk to the six men in front of her. "Try not to piss your pants, guys. That would be utterly embarrassing." And with that bit of advice she sent her Rasengan into the ground.

Sasuke stumbled slightly as the ground shook beneath his feet. He couldn't believe it! Naruto somehow managed to summon a large amount of chakra, an amount of chakra that most shinobi didn't possess. He wasn't even sure how it was possible. Sasuke has never seen that amount of chakra in one person before and the fact that Naruto of all people possessed it and the fact that it was used in only one attack told him that she had more of this impossibly large source of chakra. He just couldn't believe it.

"Tsk, six men are having trouble taking down one girl?" Sasuke turned his head away from the smoke and dust caused by the attack to look directly at the leader who was shaking his head. "I knew they were weak." The large man sighed and turned his attention to Sasuke, "I guess I should finish you off before the blonde comes over, eh?"

Sasuke had a split second to jump into the air as a large fist was brought down right where he was standing moments before. 'If I get hit it's all over.' Minutes flew by as Sasuke did nothing other than evading the fists trying to knock him down. He finally found a small opening were he punched the enemy right in the stomach and, pivoting his body, kicked the man solidly in the jaw sending him flying into the trees. Huffing, he noticed that Naruto finished off four of her attackers and quickly ran towards her to help her with the final two. He would need her help to take down this leader.

As Naruto was concentrating on the one rogue ninja, the second ninja came up behind her and was ready to bring a kunai down onto Naruto's skull. Sasuke reached the enemy-nin first and slit his throat just as Naruto defeated her ninja with a kunai to the gut. She turned around and was about to thank Sasuke but instead let out a sharp gasp as a large tree collided with Sasuke's body and sent him over the cliff's edge and into the river below.

"SASUKE!" Naruto screamed and ran to the edge of cliff trying to find any source of Sasuke left. Just as she was about to call his name again, a large shadow concealed her form and a deep chuckle sounded right next to her ear. "I wouldn't be worried about him if I were you, kid." The next thing Naruto knew, she was flying throughout the air and into a bunch of trees. She landed painfully on her back and, giving a curse, struggled to stand. She wasn't able to stand fully though as a large fist rammed into the back of her head causing her to fly through the air again as well as giving her a massive head-ache. 'Did I ask to fly through the fucking air? No, I didn't.' Naruto thought as she landed harshly on her side and let out a gasp of pain. The large rogue ninja appeared immediately and grabbed Naruto's shirt roughly, picking her whole body up so he was face-to-face with her. "Now, I will only ask one more time. Where is the scroll, brat?" Panting, Naruto was seriously thinking about telling the man where the scroll was but one small flare of chakra, closely followed by another small flare changed her mind. 'Sasuke!'

Naruto sent a harsh kick to the man's stomach causing him to let go of her shirt. With her whole body now free, Naruto spun her body connecting the back of her foot with the side of his face. She didn't stop there, though. Still mid-air, Naruto used the momentum of her kick to aim a chakra-infused fist at the enemy's face effectively breaking his nose and causing him to fly backwards a few feet. Landing softly on the ground, Naruto watched as the man slowly got up and let out a string of curses. That wasn't her main concern, though. 'Come on, come on, come on. One more time, Sasuke. Just one more time!' Naruto narrowly dodged the fist aimed at her head and heard the impact it had on the tree behind her. Sending chakra into the base of her feet, she jumped away from the now broken tree and landed on the other side of the clearing. She turned around quickly to dodge another fist and jumped slightly to miss the foot that swiped at her feet. 'Come on, Sasuke!' Puffing, Naruto knew she had to end this but had no idea how. There was no way she could take this huge man on herself. Dodging another fist, Naruto was about to lose all hope. Suddenly, however, she felt the distant flare of Sasuke's chakra and as soon as she was able to, she sent a powerful punch to her attacker's face, smirking slightly when she felt his nose break more.

Then, she ran to the cliff's edge and jumped right off.
