As I dove after, I watched Sakura focus her chakra. Having Sasuke under one arm, she hit her feet to the cliff edge along with her free hand. She managed to stop the fall but she struggled to keep hold.

The cliff she was holding onto broke off and she let out a short scream. However I nose dived downwards and caught the two before landing on a little ledge. "Miyu!" Sakura shouted in surprise.

I smiled at her and looked up. Naruto. I need to get to him. Turning my gaze upwards. I could hear Naruto shouting Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu. I need to get up there. "Sakura, I have a plan. But I need you to help."

Her eyes widened in surprise but soon her green eyes held determination.

I had managed to get up without him noticing and watched as Naruto formed Rasengan again. This would be his fourth. "This is bordering on ridiculous. I've always hated people when they didn't know when to quit." Aoi spat, still unaware of me in the trees.

I need to wait. Patient. If this plan goes well, it should end with Naruto's final Rasengan. Two of Naruto clones rushed at him but he swiped, destroying them. Stones were thrown but he dodged and I stared in wonder. Idate . . .

Idate stood, staring intently at Aoi. "That's enough heroism for one day don't you think. Idate!" NOW!

Chains erupted from my back and wrapped around him. "What?!" Sakura then jumped from the brush and threw a flash bomb, blinding Aoi. "Now Naruto!" Sakura shouted.

Naruto blinked in shock but grinned and rushed. Keeping my chains wrapped, but purposely letting his arm with the sword loose, he lifted the sword to block. Sakura ran to the edge, ready.

Naruto struck the crack that Sasuke and I had made and we watched as Rasengan broke through it. I moved the chains back to my body as Aoi was spun away over the cliff. Sakura looked down, three kunai in hand.

She waited patiently before throwing them down, destroying the area around him with the paper bombs attatched so if he survived, he'd be trapped.

"Yes!" Sakura cheered. I sighed and jumped down next to her. "Miyu, Sakura! You're okay! Wait, where's Sasuke?" Naruto asked. I nodded to the edge. "He's on a ledge. He's fine just out cold." Sakura nodded and motioned to the other side. "You guys go on ahead. Miyu and I will get Sasuke and follow after."

I glanced at Idate and smiled. "Now then, go win a race for us, kay." He returned the smile and nodded. Alright then. I wrapped my arm around Sakura's waist and hoped down to the edge where Sasuke was.

Sasuke, he is going to be upset to hear that Naruto defeated Aoi, and not him. But if it wasn't for his Chidori, it would have proven difficulty.

However Naruto only grows stronger and stronger. "Yahoo!" The cheers of Idate and Naruto was heard. Hm? Glancing up I saw the two idiots swinging across the area. Naruto channeled chakra to his feet and ran up, Idate in hand and they took off, back into the race.

Sighing I looked at Sakura, a smile on my face. "This might sting a little." I picked up Sasuke under my arm and wrapped my arm around Sakura before Flash Stepping to Naruto.

"Wha! Miyu!" He shouted in embarrassment. Idate had already ran in front of him. Releasing Sakura, I maneuvered Sasuke so he rested on my back.

After a bit we neared the shrine. The three of us jumped up onto one of the posts and watched as Idate catch up with the other competitor. "Keep going! IDATE!" Naruto shouted. "Come on, you can do it! RUN IDATE!" I cheered.

Sakura grinned as Idate took the lead and broke through the white finish line tape. The crowd went wild, thankful that he had won.

Way to go Idate.
