Heeeeellllllooooo! Idk why I'm even writing this... But, ENJOY

~Naruto's POV~

Both Sakura and I glared at the man in front of us. "You're going down!" I sneered, running at him full speed.

He grinned as I punched him in the stomach. But as I thought, it was a Shadow Clone. "So he can make Shadow Clones..."

"Naruto! Get out of there!" I heard Sakura yell, rush filling her voice.

Quickly, I turned around, but not not in time. He kicked me in the gut and sent me flying into the old building wall.

~Sakura's POV~

As Naruto was hurtled into the wall, I took that as my cue to attack him while his back was turned.

I created two regular clones and jumped up into the trees. I pulled out a Kunai, as did my Doppelgängers.

One of the clones threw a Kunai knife at the man, he dodged as I got into my position. My other clone flung it's Kunai at him and he took another step back.

As he was only a foot away from me, I ran up behind him and stabbed him in the back. But as I thought I wounded him, he disappeared into a cloud of smoke.

"Huh?! Where'd he go?!" I quickly turned and went back up into the trees and tried to spot him from above.

"Right here,"

I gasped and skidded to the left, a Kunai of his own barely grazing my arm. I jumped over to another tree and made my way over to Naruto.

I saw his orange jacket and jolted in that direction. Once I was a few feet away from him, I heard him grumble and sit up, wiping blood from his mouth.

"That's it! He's getting a beat down!" He shouted.

"Naruto! Stop! I have an idea," I began. I whispered my plan to him and he smirked, punching the palm of his hand.

"Alright! Don't worry! I gotcha covered!" He grinned, flashing his teeth.

I smirked back and headed outside, Naruto trailing behind as he made two Shadow Clones for each tree in the area, one that looked like me, and the other like him.

We both stood at the entrance of the wall as the Shadow Clones took their places. "Alright! Let's play a game! Can you tell which ones are the real ones?" All of my Clones asked in sync.

I could tell Akuma had look of strain on his face. My plan was working. Soon, the Clones, Naruto and I started rotating, switching from spot to spot.

"Enough of this!" He growled as he threw three Kunai at three different Clones. They disappeared with a cloud in their place, but Naruto easily regenerated them.

"Try again!" I called, along with all my Clones.

He grunted with rage. "Im not gonna play some child's game!" He pulled out over 20 Kunai and 2 Shuriken. He clicked open the Shuriken and eyed each and every Clone, including us.

He threw the Kunai and they planted themselves into every Clone, making them disappear. Sense Naruto and I were on different sides of him, he swung the Shuriken and aimed for both of us.

We dodged them both and jumped at him from both angles. Naruto beat me too it and tackled him to the ground.

He punched him square in the face, breaking his nose. "What do you want with (Y/n)?!" He went in for another punch, but Akuma caught it with his hand before it could make contact with his face.

"That, my friend, is for another time," he grinned.

Soon, his whole body turned into a snake and slithered out from Naruto's grip. But before it could wriggle away, I ran forward and held it by its neck.

It squirmed in my hand, gasping for breath. "You better answer the question!" I demanded, giving him possibly the hardest glare he's ever seen.

He acted as if he were going to bite my hand. I kept strong until the tip of his tooth grazed my hand, I let go and he slithered away into the forest, lost from sight.

"He got away!" Naruto growled and punched the dirt ground, sending pieces of ruble in all different directions.

"It's alright Naruto, we'll get him next time. I'll start working on a Chakra Sealed jar to contain him when he's in snake form when we get back to the Village." I stated. But as I looked up, the sun was starting to peak up. "But for now, we better catch up to Lee and Hinata, if they haven't made it to the Village already,"

He nodded as we started back where we came from. Taking one last look back as the abandoned building that was now just a pile of rotting wood and stone slabs.

~Hinata's POV~

Lee and I heard many distant battle sounds, meaning Naruto and Sakura has already started fighting. After a little bit, those sounds stopped.

We kept going for a while, almost to the Village, it was only around 20ft from us. I turned around, using my Byakugan to see behind us. I saw both Naruto and Sakura coming back towards the Village.

"Naruto-kun and Sakura-chan are heading this way," I informed.

Lee nodded as we started towards the Village once more. Once we reached the gates, we rushed inside and straight towards the Hospital. We entered the cream colored building as ran to the front desk.

"P-Please! This girl needs Medical Help!" I gestured to (Y/n) who was still unconscious, breathing heavily due to all the running.

"Oh my!" The lady gasped as she ran back. "Quickly! Follow me! We have a spare room already set up!"

We did as we were told and followed behind her. Once we entered the room, Lee set (Y/n) down on the bed as the Nurse pulled the blankets over her and stuck the IV needle into her arm.

(Y/n)'s breathing was unstable, so the Nurse slipped an oxygen mask over her face and turned it on. Soon she was bandaged up and water was entering her body because of blood loss.

The IV monitor started beating, signaling that (Y/n) was still alive and in a healthy state. "May I ask the patient's name?" The Nurse asked, holding a small board and pen.

"(Y/n) (L/n)," I replied, sitting in one of the chairs next to (Y/n)'s bed.

The Nurse wrote (Y/n)'s name down and hung it up on the door. "She needs rest, but feel free to stay and visit," she smiled, shutting the door behind her as she left back to the front desk.

Leaving Lee and I in the room with (Y/n)'s sleeping body lying in the bed between us. Lee held (Y/n)'s hand with a stern expression, as if he were mentally apologizing.

My look saddened at the sight of it, I truly feel bad... For both (Y/n), clinging onto her life. And Lee, desperately hoping that she'd wake up and this life-threatening nightmare to end...
