After the video ended, Naruto's mouth lost it's grip and that was the only body part he could actually move...

"So Temari, how long am I going to be paralyzed while you sit there?" Naruto asked a bit annoyed. They have been lying there for what seemed like forever but they didn't keep track of the time.

"Naruto be quiet!" Temari yelled after Naruto's thousand complaints. He could've jump if he weren't paralyzed by the other blonde but no, she had to freaking freeze him.

"Temari just please let me go and we could undo the jutsu you casted a while a go"

Temari was still facing aback Naruto, covering her bottled up emotions. Her face hiding from him.

The younger blond suddenly felt an ease with his body. It's almost like "YOU UNPARALYZED ME!!!" he shouted, in a celebration type of tone.

He jumped in charge of his body once more. "WooOHoOoo" he flipped like Lee and Gai.

Then he remembered, Temari...

He rushed by her side, scanning her face; her smugged face containing puppy dog eyes. "Woah, Te-temari.." he slowly stated "Y-you alright?"

She only frowned at that. "Then why are you crying?.." he asked. Naruto furrowed his brows and ran his hands down Temari's back; this repeated for the next 2 minutes.

"Naruto, Sasuke -sniff- has this condition -sniff- that is still not classified -sniff- and you're telling me -sniff- that he attacked Gaara then.."

She stopped when she realized, "Naruto where are you?" she yelled. One second the blond was comforting her and he's gone in the next. "Wh-what's going on?" Temari whispered not higher than a breathe.

She was shocked, Naruto's disappearance worried her to say the least. "N-no way.." she wanted to counter the possible ways to release the jutsu but she couldn't "Unless.."

She thought and remembered, "Right! The only way to release the jutsu is either the caster does it or a person in the real world wakes the person" Temari had murmured.

Thousands of names crossed her head in a split second but one remained to asure her. "Sakura..". Temari formed a hand-sign and shouted, "Release!".

And not surprisingly, Sakura stood there aiding Naruto. Asking all sorts of questions. "Ah, Sa-sakura.." Temari hesitated to speak.

Heads turned to her, "Temari-san, oh my goodness, I'm so sorry if I disturbed anything there but I was worried and.."

"Yes, okay.." she laughed "If I saw my brothers were unconscious like that, I'd be worried too"

Sakura sighed in relief and Naruto scratched the back of his head. "So what brings you here Sakura?"

"I/Sakura-chan came/dropped by to bring Naruto/me a new set of clothes" both said in a unison. "Ohhh.."

Naruto looked at Temari and spoke with his eyes. Then he said, "Agh, Sakura-chan.." he continued while pushing her to the door "You should take a day off..and um erm, go back to your house. Temari and I have stuff to do so wewouldn'tbeabletohangoutbyeseeyahIloveyouyaknow!" Naruto's energy was used at that last part.

SLAMMED! Naruto slammed the door shut, and ran towards the window to check if Sakura has moved-on somewhere far enough. Naruto and Temari both sighed.

"So what now?" Naruto
Temari shrugged, "Either we report Sasuke, his actions and his current condition or we keep it to ourselves" she stated in a monotonous manner.

Naruto took a deep breathe. What on earth would I do?..

"I'll just report it" Temari teased walking to the door. "No!" he shouted stopping Temari from her tracks.

"You will not report anybody" he got back at her. But the older blonde did not agree with Naruto. Is he insane?!..

Temari crossed her arms and faced the great Naruto Uzumaki. "So what? Are we gonna protect him huh?" she raised a brow.

"No we will help a friend" he replied, the blond bangs covering the upper portion of his face.

The expression of Temari was unreadable, her face was blank until her eyebrows furrowed engaging a look that would terrify most people, one that had the aura of the devil.

Naruto used his hands as a shield intently from Temari. "Temari we are not kids anymore, we don't play silly games" he mustered up the confidence to speak out.

But he didn't see this coming, Naruto had been...tackless and he hit a sore spot.

"What?! You think I'm playing games right now? Huh?" Temari's calm was no more when it came to 'playing silly games'.

SILENCE

Right now there is a battle between two blondes. And it is not clear what they stand for. Is it really Sasuke's faith? Or...is it something entirely different? What?
