Konoha's New Yellow Flash

Run Idate Run! Nagi Island Awaits!

Water filled my lungs and all the pain of drowning appeared, but only for a moment before I couldn't feel the suffocating sensation anymore. My eyes grew heavy. Before my eyes closed, I saw three figures swim towards us.

A small smile made its way onto my face before I blacked out.

"Miyu! Miyu! Miyu!" I sat up quickly and began coughing up sea water. I was coughing violently as someone patted my back. Finishing my fit, I stared at my teammates.

We're on land. Oh thank god. I stood, coughing some more to get rid of any of the excess water. "We-need to go to Idate." I coughed out. "Hold up there, you swallowed a lot of water." Sakura said worriedly. Sasuke and Naruto stood, staring at me, worried.

I smiled at them. "I'm fine. But we need to go." Sasuke stared at me a little while longer before nodding and leading us away.

Naruto was by my side. "Are you okay?" He asked worriedly. I nodded. "I'm fine. Just lost my cool." I murmured. Sasuke glanced back at me and slowed down so he was on my other side. Gently, he slid his hand in mine and gave it a small squeeze.

I smiled at him and focused on finding Idate. Chills went down my spine. "Shit! Idate's in trouble!" I shouted, running ahead of them. They followed me as I followed Idate's scent.

It began raining, but lucky me it's not affecting his trial. Up ahead, Idate lay on the ground. A green headed ninja with an umbrella stood, staring down at him. "IDATE!" Naruto shouted.

The ninja turned his attention to us. Sakura and I ran around him and to Idate. Naruto asked if he was with those other rain ninja. Ignoring their conversation, I gently touched Idate's neck. He's still breathing, his pulse is still there, but he's wounded.

Sakura immediately began first aid as I checked his other vitals. Although I can't do medical Ninjutsu for shit, checking on someone is simple.

Naruto and Sasuke lunged at the ninja. He evaded their strikes and jumped high in the air. Gripping his umbrella, he swung down, and incredible pressure slammed us into the ground. I grit my teeth. I can't move.

The weight vanished soon, thank god. The ninja landed. "Hm. About what I expected. No more of a challenge then Idate really. I'll just give you what I gave him." He put his umbrella on his back and grabbed senbon needles.

He threw them at us. I let my chakra chains out and created a barrier around us. The needles bounced off my shield.

The ninja studied me before the sounds of cheering erupted. The ninja smirked and left us, before telling us that all our plans are going up in smoke.

Stupid ninja. I let my barrier down. I need to preserve as much chakra as I can. He's on a different level then me. Not saying I can't beat him, but it'll be a bit much. "We need to get going. But . . ." I picked up a needle and glanced at Idate. "There's poison on them. Not a lot to kill, but enough to do some damage to people who aren't used to it."

Sakura's eyes widened and she dug in her backpack before pulling out a familiar bottle. "Grandma Tsunade." She smiled and grabbed a pill and put it in Idate's mouth. That should help.

I leaned down and picked up the unconscious boy. "We need to get him out of the rain and warm him up or he'll get sick." The other stood and we searched for a place. Sasuke found a cave and the boys made a fire.

I stripped Idate of his clothes, leaving his underwear. Reaching in my bag, I pulled out an emergency blanket and wrapped it around him and hung his clothes to dry.

"He's not going to be happy you stripped him." Naruto spoke as we gathered around the fire. I snorted. "The brat should be grateful." I grumbled, sitting next to Sasuke. Now, we're probably far behind. I don't see how Idate can win. But surely the man isn't running in this rain. He seemed kind of spoiled.
