Hidden Leaf Detectives (NaruSasu / SasuNaru)

Part 7

(What happened with Naruto)

Naruto stood outside of the hideout. He yawned, this was kinda boring.
"Naruto, focus." A voice informed him from his microphone.
"I know, I know, it's just...It's been hours Temari! I'm bored!"
"Baka." Temari groaned.
There was silence. "Hey Temari?"
Temari sighed. "Yes?"
"What do you think these guys are after?"
Temari was silent.
"Temari?"
"I know you really trust Iruka and all-"
"God damn it! Not you too!"
"Well you shut-up and just lesson for once?!" Temari snapped. Naruto gulped. Temari was someone you did NOT want to piss of. "When I was going through a few things Iruka took something. I don't know what but if something's missing he's the first to know. So, the fact that he's hiding something and the fact we still don't know what they took...I think Iruka's keeping it a secret on purpose. And what ever that was stolen is what Akatsuki is after as well."
Naruto was silent. Could...could Iruka really be keeping a secret? From all of them?

Just then there was an explosion from the east.
"Shit! Everyone go to where Gaara is now!"
Naruto was about to bolt on over but was stopped. Two men stood in front of him. They both wore long black cloaks with red clouds. Naruto shivered, he knew whose coats those were, they were Akatsuki coats. He then glanced up to see their faces. One was blue, no shit, blue skinned with blue hair and smelt like fish. While the other Naruto knew very well.
"Itachi..."

"Where's Gaara?!?"
Temari ask when she reached the area.
"Gone! We can't find him anywhere!"
"Find him!" She demanded "and make sure no one got inside!!"
"Yes mam!!"
Temari then talked into the speaker.
"Naruto!?! Naruto, where are you!?!"

Naruto could hear Temari and so could the two Akatsuki members. Naruto muted the speaker. He didn't want them to hear any of Temari's other orders.
"What do you want?" Naruto asked angry. "The Kyuubi's drugs are gone."
Itachi then ran behind Naruto's and hit a nerve on his neck. "All them...except for the hosts."
Naruto froze. He couldn't move. His knees gave out and he fell into Itachi's arms.

"FREEZE!" The two Akatsuki members then turned to see Asuma with a gun pointed towards them. "POLICE!"
Itachi ignored him as the blue man merely chuckled.
"Ah how cute. The police men are here."
Asuma scowled. "Leave the kid alone or else!"
"Or else what?"
The blue man then sprinted towards Asuma, who in turn began continuously shooting at him but missed until the other had managed to get around him and pull his arm with the gun behind his back and disarmed him.
"Itachi take him. I'll take care of this."
Itachi nodded and swung Naruto over his shoulder. Using all of his strength, Naruto lefted his head. The blue figure had kicked Asuma down to the ground and was aiming the gun at his head.
"No..." Naruto whispered as the man's finger slowly began pulling on the trigger. "NOOOOOOOO!" and cried as the sound of a bullet was shot.

Temari's head jerked up.
"Those gun shots, they were coming from Naruto's area!!" She began running. "Back up, back up! I need people over at Naruto's section now!!" tears were coming out of her eyes. She already lost Gaara, she couldn't loose Naruto too!!
But by the time they arrived the Akatsuki and Naruto were gone. All that remained was a dead cop.
"Shit!" Temari fell to the ground and slammed it. She couldn't even see straight from all the anger and tears blinding her. But she stood up anyways and whipped them away. Crying now was not gonna help.
"Call the police."
"B-But T-Temari!!"
"We may of hid corpse from them before, but not of their own men. Sides..." Temari stormed into the building "If we can't even trust ourselves, who can we trust?" she walked passed everyone and ignored them as she went. She wasn't going to stop until she got some damn answers. When she came to the door she was looking for she kicked it down.
"Iruka we need to talk. NOW."

--- (present)

Temari sat there at the police office. She wanted scream, kick, and kill. But she kept her cool. However, that didn't mean she wasn't gonna snap and brake something at any given moment. The door opened and she glanced up. Shikamaru and Sasuke walked into the room.

"Now." Shikamaru began. "EXPLAIN."
Apparently she wasn't the only one with these emotions.
"...Naruto and I were working on the Alex case...together, even though we weren't supposed too. That's why we were pretending to be detectives."
Shika nodded. He bought that.
"What's your connection with Akatsuki?"
"My brother, he's a member."
"Itachi Uhiha." Shika commented.
"You already knew?"

"How dumb do you think I am?!?" He slammed his hands onto the desk. "When someone kills one of my own I look up EVERYTHING! I WILL NOT LET THEM GET AWAY!!" Shikamaru panted. Shit, he was loosing his cool. God he wanted to cry. The man who taught him everything and came to respect as the father he wished he had was dead. Fucking dead! And this guy knew something about it!! Sasuke gulped. If he said one thing wrong this guy was going to kill him.

"That's it. The reason I was looking for the Akatsuki gang was to find Itachi."
"Why?" Shika asked annoyed.
Sasuke got silent "He...he killed everyone else in my family." The room was silent. "I was really young when it happened that I became traumatized. All I could remember was the blood of my parents on my hands...it took me years for me to remember who had done it since it was painful too...but I remembered. It was my brother. But by then it was too late. No body knew where he was. That's why...I wanted to find him. To kill him myself."
Temari got up to comfort him.
Shikamaru knew he wasn't lying, not this time.

"So, you really don't know anything then, huh?"
"Well, I saw him while I was suppose to watch Montolo-"
"The Alex case." Shikamaru mumbled.
"Shit. They were after him all this time?" Temari whispered out loud.
"After who?" Sasuke asked.
The room was silent. Shikamaru looked down at the grown and Temari just stood next to Sasuke. Sasuke gave a nervous laugh.
"W-who?" His voice was giving way. He had an idea who, but didn't want to believe. It ....it just couldn't be-
"Naruto."
Sasuke slammed his hands on his desk. It made sense. Itachi was at the club, Naruto was at the club, Naruto knew about the drugs, Itachi wanted the drugs and thus Itachi wanted him.
"That and they took Gaara too." Temari added.
"Gaara?"
"My brother." She pulled out a picture.
"I didn't know why, so I asked Iruka, who is in the room next door. And you know what he said?" She then took out a phone. "He told me to ask Kakashi."
Sasuke then begin checking his pockets. This lady just took his phone!!
Temari went through the phone book, selected Kakashi's contact, then gave the phone back to Sasuke.
"Tell him to come here, now. I want BOTH of them explaining just what the hell is going on."
