Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto. However, I DO have the same birthday as Naruto. XD I'm older though, and I'm pretty sure I'm not possessed by the Kyuubi.

Authors' notes: This is the joint efforts of several people�chibi_onna, mooguri_klaine, thirteenth_spider, Luna Catgirl, and of course, me, twisted-sheets. Be warned, people. Insanity and stuff ensues. Pairings are NaruSasu/SasuNaru, KakaIru and a whole lot more. It's Yaoi, and yes, there will be lemons. LOTS. I don't care if FF.net HATES lemons. I won't archive it here, though. So this is PG-13�for now. :evil grin:

Be warned for manga and series spoilers. Naruto and Sasuke are about 15 years old and of Chuunin rank. They're living together (that'll be explained in later chapters). Sasuke did leave Konoha, but he went back (details later on how). And yes, he already has Mangekyou Sharingan.

This is for�Rach and Neko-chan. XD

Chapter I: 'It' Happens

Shit happens.

That was the first of the three thoughts that came to Uzumaki Naruto's mind as soon as two or three dozen missing-nin from gods-only-knew-where village showed up from their hiding spots among the bare trees and underneath the thick snow. From then on, what had been a routine sweep of Konohakagure's outskirts turned into a potential bloody fight.

The second thought that came to him was why were the missing-nins here. There hadn't been many threats to Konohagakure for a while, the last time being ten months ago, during the Chuunin exams where he and Sasuke both passed, when an assassin squad tried to kill the Kazekage, Gaara. That had been taken care of posthaste, Gaara being who he was. Technically, that wasn't exactly a direct threat to the Konoha, but Sand was their ally, after all.

The third thought that came to Naruto's mind as he shifted his weight and pulled out a handful of kunai from his holster, was why he hadn't detected them. Some of the perks of having the Kyuubi in his body were heightened senses, including the sense of smell. So why hadn't he smelled them?

"They stayed downwind of you, dobe," Uchiha Sasuke said from behind him, breath steaming as he spoke. Sasuke crouched, shurikens grasped firmly in his pale hands, red Mangekyou Sharingan eyes flashing. "That's why you didn't detect them." The missing-nins advanced towards them, various weapons in hand, their steps muffled by the snow.

"Stop calling me dobe, bastard!" Naruto shouted as the world around them exploded in a storm of steel and jutsus. Naruto jumped into a snow-covered tree, dodging the attacks, hands flashing as he did the seal. "Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" Naruto smirked as he watched his clones leap at the missing-nins, kunai in each hand. "Take that, assholes!" he said as five missing-nins fell at the attack of his clones, staining the pristine snow red with their blood. "That's what you get for messing with the great Naruto!"

Naruto hated this, hated it when what was already an unpleasant task turns more unpleasant. Patrolling early in the morning in the dead of winter was never his favorite duty as a Chuunin, even if it meant having Sasuke to himself for a few hours before they'd split up for their respective training for the rest of the day�Sasuke with the pervert Kakashi and Naruto with the super-pervert Jiraiya.

Of course, he and Sasuke lived together; they'd see each other when the day was over, but then they'd just have enough strength to change clothes and shower, eat, crawl into bed, have sex, and fall asleep. Morning was the only time they could talk. Though most of the time it was Naruto who did the talking, sharing his thoughts and experiences with Sasuke and seeing Sasuke there, sitting, listening and occasionally sharing his own thoughts and opinions, made him absurdly happy. He didn't feel quite so alone as before.

This was why he hated this assignment. How was he supposed to talk to Sasuke when his ass was freezing or when his teeth was chattering from the cold?

Thoughts shifting back to the present, Naruto could see behind him, on the ground, was the blur of black and green that was Sasuke hurling shurikens and exchanging blows at the missing-nins attacking him, hitting them with deadly precision. Naruto wondered why Sasuke hadn't just toasted them with a fire jutsu�Oh. It'll melt the snow, and then things get slippery. Slippery is bad.

"Naruto!" Sasuke's warning shout came seconds before Naruto sensed the presence behind him. Cursing himself for his inattentiveness, Naruto rounded sharply, throwing a kunai at the missing-nin leaping at him. The missing-nin fell back as the kunai hit him at the chest.

Naruto jumped to the ground, hands blurring as he performed the seal for Kage Bunshin again as missing-nins surrounded them and attacked them again. There were a half a dozen more left, and although they hadn't been that difficult to fight, they were getting tiresome. He and Sasuke may be Chuunin by rank, but not by power and experience.

"Usuratonkachi, pay attention. Stop daydreaming," Sasuke drawled at he sidled up against Naruto, their backs flush against each other. He could feel and hear Sasuke's harsh breathing, heck, he could even the see it. Naruto was panting too. Damn! he thought as he warily eyed the missing-nins. They're not going to give up!

The missing-nins were all wearing winter camouflage, goggles on their eyes, masks over their faces. They've only exchanged blows so far�none of the missing-nins had used any ninjutsu or genjustsu yet, which was odd. Really odd.

"The first attack was to tire us," Sasuke said. "They're going to use jutsus now."

No sooner had Sasuke spoken that a missing-nin's hand flashed, and what appeared to be a huge wall of water came rushing at them.

Naruto and Sasuke leapt to the safety of the branches as the wall of water crashed down and drenched the snow-covered ground.

Naruto inwardly shuddered. Then his eyes flashed. "Heh. Is that all you have?" Naruto pulled out some shurikens, and gathered his chakra. "Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" His clones appeared again. Then, smirking, he shouted, "Naruto Ninpocho; Shihou Hapou Shuriken no Maki!"

His clones leapt into the air, showering the missing-nins with a rain of shuriken. He was about to gloat when out of the corner of his eye, Naruto saw one of the missing-nins on a branch, hands forming a series of seals he hadn't seen before. Naruto didn't hear the name of the jutsu, because it was lost in the loud roar of chakra gathering. Stunned, Naruto could only stand there and stare as a huge ball of blue fire headed towards him with incredible speed.

Before he could do anything, a blur of black and green appeared before him, just as the ball of blue fire blazed at him, its brightness making him close his eyes. He could feel the fire's heat surrounding him�rather than going through him�seconds before it dissipated. Dazed, he gazed through half-lidded eyes.

Sasuke stood in front of him, crouching, bruises and burns on his body. Tendrils of smoke rose from him, the smell of singed flesh, clothes, and plant strong in the air. "Moron," he said, turning to him.

Naruto's eyes flew open in shock. He froze as he watched Sasuke topple over. Then, blood roaring in his ears, he moved to catch his falling comrade.

"SASUKE!"

::T.B.C.::

Author's note: So, did you like it? Were they OOC? More about Naruto and Sasuke's relationship next chapter. I hoped you enjoyed this one. And if you're wondering who the hell those missing-nins are or why they're there, you'll find out next chapter. You'll see the other people from Naruto too. You'll be in for a lot of surprises. I'm sorry if Sasuke-kun's presence was small. This chapter is sort of Naruto's point of view.

Sasuke and the Sharingan: If you're wondering why Sasuke isn't using any fancy Sharingan moves, that's kinda hard to use with multiple enemies. So far, I've seen the Sharingan used at a single enemy or at the most, two. If I'm wrong on this, you can tell me.

Next chapter: What happens to Sasuke-kun? Naruto comes up with a plan. A very, very interesting plan.

Thanks for reading!
