NARUTO:The sealed shinobi.

Naruto smirked with his eyes closed, "Maybe after we get out of this Yugi-chan…" Naruto never saw the blush fill Yugito's face from his comment.

(With Hidan and Kakuzu)

"Where is that fucking brat?" Hidan yelled as he and Kakuzu made their way across the mountainous wilderness of the area around Kumo, "We're in the middle of nowhere, one other guy and a billy goat have passed anywhere near us and that's it!"

Kakuzu thought to himself while his partner continued to gripe, "He isn't running towards or away from Kumo. He's hiding now. Instead of running and eventually getting caught like he knew he was going to he found somewhere to hide to wait us out." Kakuzu chuckled, "Desperate isn't he?"

Hidan looked at him strangely, "Hiding? Where could he possibly be hiding? I'm certain that Kumo wouldn't allow places like that so close to their village. We're not even forty miles away. Are you sure the kid isn't just on the run?"

Kakuzu nodded, "I'm absolutely positive because it's the better option to hide right now. And every village has a few cracks in its security system. We got in after all didn't we?" Hidan laughed, "Yeah, but all we did was just kill all of the guards. We basically walked right through the front gate." He continued to laugh even harder, "And now there aren't even any pitiful guards to try and stop us."

The two men continued their search across the mountain for Naruto and Yugito. Kakuzu grunted, "We have to find and capture them soon. It won't take long until Kumo finds out that something is amiss and they find the ruins from our fight with their jinchuuriki. Then it would be too risky to stay any longer."

(Kumogakure no Sato – Raikage's Office)

"What do you mean Yugito is gone!" A roared, slamming his fists into his desk and pulverizing it, "How could someone just get away with Yugito right under our noses and no one was the wiser about the whole situation?" The Raikage's assistant didn't flinch in the face of her enraged commander, "Darui and C found the signs of a major battle just outside of Kumo, however there was no indication of exactly where she or her attacker had gone after the struggle ended."

A, the Yondaime Raikage felt like punching a few new holes in his office, "Who the hell could do something like this to Yugito? And this is terrible timing, Kirabi isn't in the village right now either. We need to scatter our forces and search for her immediately. How can she just vanish?"

"Because my apprentice is with her." Jiraiya said as he cracked the door to the office, "Naruto is with her."

A turned a glare to Jiraiya, barely holding back his killing intent, "And you would know this how? It's too much of a coincidence that the day after you send me a warning about a group that kidnaps jinchuuriki our own gets taken." Jiraiya's eyes took on a hardened glance at the towering Kage, "Don't begin to insinuate what you're thinking. Naruto is keeping her away from the people that attempted to take her. He's stuck somewhere outside of Kumo by himself, keeping her hidden until someone can find him. However if he finds himself in a fight he will be at a decided disadvantage. There are two of them, and he's alone with your wounded jounin."

"Then what are we waiting for?" A said, "Lead my forces to your student and Yugito so that we can keep them safe."

Jiraiya sighed and leaned against the doorway, "I wish it were that simple, but my toads aren't much for tracking. And if you couldn't find any trail of them either then that means Naruto did too good of a job of covering his tracks when he escaped… I can't really blame him given the circumstances though."

A looked over at his assistant, "Send out the order to scatter our forces out along the countryside to look for Yugito Nii and Naruto Uzumaki. Stop and question anyone in sight that is travelling in that area."

His assistant nodded and exited the office in a hurry to relay his orders to Kumo's shinobi force. A turned his attention to Jiraiya who still stood in the doorway, utterly serious, "How legitimate a chance do you think the two of them have by themselves out there."

"It depends." Jiraiya simply stated, "It depends on whether or not the gaki is sick of playing the victim and switches over to playing executioner." A groan came from Jiraiya's mouth at that moment, "And for my sake he'd better turn into the executioner quick, or else Tsunade's going to castrate me bare-handed if he gets himself caught."

(With Naruto and Yugito – Two Hours Later) Yugito was seated with a heated face as she had her shirt off and her back turned to Naruto, "Are you done yet Naruto-kun? This is embarrassing and the ink is cold."

Naruto was drawing a major array on Yugito's back, one that matched the one that was currently drawn on his bare chest. A circular formation around his heart, a trail of kanji leading from his heart to the other side of his chest and an overlapping straight trail resembling a DNA helix ending in a significantly larger kanji surrounded by another circular array, "Just keep holding still. You're lucky I can do this on your back too or else I'd be getting a primo view right now. Be lucky that I'm not Ero-sennin or I wouldn't have even given you the option."

"Naruto-kun! And I don't even know who that is!" Yugito said indignantly, "Besides, we're in the middle of something serious here!"

Naruto grinned as he continued to make his seal on Yugito's back, "Oh come on Yugi-chan. It's just you and me, we're all alone in this dark, hidden cavern, you're shirtless, I'm shirtless, we're about to die more or less… If there's anything you want from me then now's the time to ask." He hinted, wagging his eyebrows.

"Fine…" Yugito said, seething and blushing hard, "What I want is for you shut the hell up and finish this seal so I'm not worthless when the fight starts! Now hurry up and stop flirting with me!"
