*Kurais POV*
The sun shines low in the sky as a warm breeze makes my red hair fly around. I sit crossed legged on a tall poll overlooking the area with a chakra force field listening for any odd sounds other than the crashing of waves on the inaugurating bridge, and the sounds of the workers.

I hear Sakura yawn to the right of me. It's early and the job is boring so all we do is sit here. Today I tried an interesting training method for training my hearing. I used a temporary blinding jutsu on myself I could remove the Jutsu at any time though.

Footsteps grow closer to Sakura and I when I hear Tazuna say, "it looks like you've got some time to kill there all by yourselves."

I hear the shuffle of his clothes meaning he looks around before turning back to us and asking, "what happened to the blonde boy and that stuck-up boy?"

Sakura turns to him, "they're in the middle of tree-climbing training."

He scoffs, "you don't have to do that?"

Sakura throws her hands up in a snobby manner, "I'm exceptional, so Kakashi Sensei told me to guard you."

I scoff to myself, 'you're only exceptional because you don't have the large chakra reserves like they do.'

Tazuna laughs lightly and asks, "really?"

From where I am siting I can feel the rage flowing off Sakura.

"What?!" Sakura spits out with rage.

I hear another set of foot steps come closer and from the sound of the bodies movement I can tell this person is a builder. "You got a minute, Tazuna?"

Tazuna turns toward the worker, "huh? What's up Giichi?"

He shifts around nervously, "uh, actually... I gave it a lot of thought. Building this bridge... Will you let me quit?"

Tazuna pops up and yells at the man, "why so suddenly? Not you too?!"

"Tazuna, I've had a bond with you from the old days. I'd like to cooperate but if we push it too far, Gato will set his sights on us, too. Also, if you get killed, everything is lost!"

I sigh as the yelling continues, Tazuna tells the man to leave then goes back to working. After a some long hours the day ends and the sun starts to set.  Tazuna heads into town Sakura and I following.

Entering town I can hear all the whispering about us. I hear a man walk up behind thinking were an easy catch. He stops and stares at Sakura's bag. I silently chuckle remembering what will happen. Sakura stares wide eyed at the run down town. "There's hardly anything here..."

The man comes closer and reaches for her bag only to touch Sakuras butt. Sakura tenses up beside me and swings around kicking the man screaming, "you pervert!!"

The man falls down scrambling away from Sakuras' rage saying, "you're... Wrong..."

Walking down a different street Tazuna says astonish, "man you certainly surprised me before."

"What's going on with this town?!" Sakura rebukes.

Sakura tenses again and turns around only to see one of the kids I know from yesterday. The little girl smiles up at Sakura bringing out her hands in a begging motion. "Gimme some?"
