Naruto's P.O.V

I trudge through the muddy path. That jerk Sasuke, I have no idea where I am right now. And to make it worse I don't have my shoes on. But the mud actually feels quite cool on my feet. I'm lost in my thoughts when I hear a muffled cry and some people laughing. I immediately went towards the sound of the voices and saw a boy, about my age I guess, stripped with whip marks over his body. His mouth was tied over with a cloth and tears were flowing down his red cheeks. Blood was slowing dripping down his back and ankles. I tightened my fist in rage, I got ready to hurt those bastards when some guy grabbed me from behind.

I thrashed and struggled but that guy was strong! He threw me over to where they were abusing him and muttered something I couldn't hear. I eyed the stranger. He trembled ferociously, hugging himself while doing so. I crawled over to him, while they were still busy talking to each other, and inspected his wounds more. There was one huge gash on his back, followed by a series of small cuts that you can't make out. His back was caked with fresh and dried blood. It seemed like he'd been bleeding for a while. A strong force had hit my back, causing me to smash into the rock-hard ground face-first. I stifled a cry and grabbed my - what I think was broken - nose to try and stop the bleeding.

"You damn bastards!!" I mumble through my mouth, blood flowing through the tiny gaps in between my fingers.

"Ha!" Spat one of them "Never knew ninjas were so weak. Ain't 'at right boss?"

"Yeah, if we knew they were that weak we would've stormed right into the village!"

While they were laughing the heads off I decided to scare them throwing a shuriken just one millimetre from their faces. The guy fell back, screaming from shock. They all turned to look at me with shock and anger. This time I laughed.

"Ninjas are weak huh? Why don't you try looking at a mirror!!"

They grit their teeth, getting some daggers and knives from their belts. I got a kunai and held battle stance. They have just messed with the wrong - WOAH!!! I leaped out of the way as the big guy slammed a giant bolder down where I was standing just a moment before. Bits and pieces flew in all directions. I jumped up to the nearest tree branch and sat down, staring at the figures below. I stared down at a particular figure. Ah shit, I was supposed to take him with me and escape but hey, since I'm up here might as well ambush them.

I jumped down aiming for their leader, fist drawn back ready to give the hardest punch that's gonna hit his face in a million years. I hurtled forward. And to cut a long story short, fist contacted the face and I think I broke his jaw and fractured his cheekbone. Make that two or three fractures. He cried out with so much pain I almost felt sorry for him. I turned to the other guys and said

"Alright, so who's next? I have plenty more from where that came from." Cracking my bloody knuckles to show them that it was true. They trembled with fear and tried to carry their boss away. Actually make that dragging. As soon as they were out of sight I rushed over to the boy.

"Hey are you okay?" He only nodded in reply, staring down at the ground. "Do you want to go back to Konoha with me?" I shook his head, I was starting to get irritated. Can't he talk?! "Then where are you going to go?" He shrugged his shoulders, still eyeing the ground. Suddenly, he had a coughing fit, bits of blood coming out. And he collapsed, just like that. I put my jacket over him and carried him, while running full speed toward Konoha. Sakura could heal him. As the trees clear, familiar buildings come into view. I rush into where Sakura would be right now.
