Naruto walked across the bridge to where Konohamaru, Moegi, and Udon waited. They grinned as they saw him waved.
"Naruto niichan!" Konohamaru balled his fists in excitement. "Let's play!"
"Sure." Naruto smiled. "I don't have any missions today, so I'll play with you guys!"
"Yay!" They cheered in unison.
"Huh?" Naruto blinked and a man appeared suddenly behind Moegi, then looked down at her.
He grabbed the girl and quickly leapt up to stand on the Torii as Naruto's eyes widened.
"Leader! Konohamaru!" Moegi struggled and cried out. "Help!"
"What're you doing with Moegi?!" Konohamaru pointed at the stranger and clenched his fist.
"Hey, you! Let Moegi go!" Naruto glared up at him.
The man quickly turned and ran off without a word and Naruto gritted his teeth.
"Darn it!" Naruto looked at the boy beside him. "Let's follow them, Konohamaru!"
"Y-Yeah!"
"W-Wait!" Udon quickly followed behind as they maintained a steady pace.
Naruto moved faster through the trees, glaring ahead at the mysterious man as he pursued him. The man glanced back at him over his shoulder and furrowed his brows.
"Well well... so you can keep up at this speed, huh?"
"Wait for me, Moegi!" Naruto moved faster, leaving Konohamaru and Udon behind.
The boys stopped on a branch and looked around as they caught their breaths.
"Naruto niichan... where'd you go?"
"I think we're lost..." Udon sniffed as his nose dripped and pushed up his glasses.
"No! Let me go!" Moegi cried and kicked as the man tied her to a tree.
He chuckled as she struggled and looked down at her. "Even the strongly fortified Hidden Leaf Village is mine if I slip in the middle of the Chunin Exams' chaos."
Naruto emerged from the trees and the man turned to him.
