Chapter 10: 5 minutes: part 2
Gaara reached up, grabbing Naruto by his leg before the wind could pull him too far. “WHAAAA!” Naruto yelled, still being pulled by the sudden burst of air. Gaara managed to pull him back as the breeze subsided, unharmed. “Thanks.” he said, holding his chest and breathing a little harder from the…embarrassing experience.
“Are you alright Naruto?” Iruka asked.
“Yeah, but you…Your never going to make it.” Naruto said, noticing that by some miracle, Iruka stayed on his feet.
“He’s right, You need to get someplace safe.” Kakashi said, his voice leaving no room for any negotiation. Iruka knew he was right.
“Alright.” Iruka sighed, turning to Naruto and Gaara. “ By the looks of it, we have 5 minutes to get underground before things get worse. The closest place is my house, in the basement there’s a hatch that leads to an underground path way. We’ll meet there. Don’t take any unnecessary risk, and no matter what after 3 have past minutes. Get. Going.” Iruka made sure it was very clear.
Naruto and Gaara nodded, watching Iruka and Kakashi head in the opposite direction.

“I’ve never seen a storm grow so bad so quickly.” Shikamaru said. He looked up at the sky, one half was pitch black, only illuminated by the lighting strikes coming from the layer of clouds above it. The other half still blue and completely normal, the sun was even shining.
“That’s the last one.” Lee said, dropping the hammer in his hand and wiping the rain from his eyes. He had every single window boarded up, and every important item in his home boxed, sealed, and buried in his back yard. The last one was on Shikamaru’s suggestion, knowing that was the only way they would survive.
“Then let’s go.” Shikamaru said nervously.
”They said we’re supposed to get underground…but I don’t know any storm cellars or anywhere for that matter.” Lee looked to Shikamaru, hoping he knew a place.
Shikamaru thought about it for a second, but came up blank “I’m not sure of one either, but maybe my father knows.”

The path to Iruka’s house was pretty strait forward, only the wind and Iruka’s weight was standing in Kakashi‘s way. It may have been faster to go by roof top, but it was more dangerous. The wind could easily knock the off, so they had to stay on the ground and use the houses and buildings as wind shields.
“Iruka, your going to have to watch behind me.” Kakashi called back, charging down the open street. All of it was completely empty now, except for one or two other people that had warned Konoha and still scouting around for anyone they hadn’t told before they got to safety themselves.
Iruka pulled a Kunai from Kakashi’s holder, scanning the area for anything that could be a potential danger. Now that he actually looked in dept, every thing was a potential danger. More so in the sky, because the storm had already he hit the forest. It was tossing trees around, and some of them just managed to reach Konoha.
Iruka’s eyes went wide when he saw one of them was barreling toward them. He quickly pulled an explosive tag from Kakashi’s holder, wrapping it around the handle of the Kunai and tossing it toward a house to the left of them.
The house appeared to be normal…until a tree smashed threw it, turning it into a scattered mass of flying wood. The Kunai struck the center of the tree and exploded, surrounding Iruka and Kakashi in a cloud of smoke and small pieces of wood.
Both emerged unharmed, Kakashi not missing a steep and still running at full speed.

Unfortunately for Lee and Shikamaru, there destination was east. The direction the storm was coming from, and walking directly into all of the wind it produced. So each burst of wind slowed them down severely, and they were coming more frequently as their time limit decreased.
Lee lifted his arms to his face, covering it from the burst but opening them just enough to see. He felt a hand pulling him to the side, looking over he could see Shikamaru leading him so he followed to the best of his ability.
He led him behind a house, using it to shield the wind. “Were going to have to do this often to keep from being blown away.” Shikamaru said.
Lee pressed his back against the wall, listening as the breeze began to decline. He stuck his arm out, not feeling the strong one that pushed them back before. “Let’s go!”
He and Shikamaru ran from behind their shield, charging forward as fast as they could.
Shikamaru stopped.
Noticing in the distance that a large tree from the forest was coming at them. He crouched down while Lee jumped above it, both of them being pushed back by the wind that carried it.
“This is pointless! We’ll never make it at this rate.” Lee said, forced to yell over the noise.
Shikamaru and Lee pushed their way into a nearby store, finding it abandoned like just about every other place. “Your right, we can’t keep going upwind the air current is too strong. We need to think of another place to go.” Shikamaru sat against a nearby wall, pulling off the jacket he wore over his shirt.

Gaara and Naruto took a different approach. Instead of traveling by ground like everyone else, they went by roof top, using Gaara’s sand as a shield, but that that created a completely different set of problems.
Naruto grabbed on to Gaara’s waist, diving to the side off the building and pulling him along. As soon as they got in to the air, lightning came down from the sky, just barely missing both of them. The building exploded in a rush of flames and debris, knocking both of them disorientedly in to a window across the street.
“This is getting weird…” Naruto said, picking himself up after a painful fall. He reached out a hand and pulled Gaara to his feet.
“It’s like this lightning is attracted to me.” Gaara said, looking around nervously. He involuntarily jumped when he heard thunder roaring outside. Just as before lightning struck the house, causing the roof to explode.
When the smoke cleared, Naruto had once again been protected by Gaara’s sand. “Oh man, maybe it really is!” Naruto said, stumbling out of the smoke and into relatively fresh air. Only to be knocked off his unbalanced feet by another strong wind.
Thunder rolled threw the sky again making Gaara instinctively dive forward, avoiding a bolt of lightning that struck the ground behind him. It had some splash damage to it, knocking him off his feet from the force. Naruto was there in a second to pull him up.
“Naruto, I don’t know what’s going on but you should stay back.” Gaara said.
“No way, If you get hit, I get hit. Just keep going and you can stay ahead of it!” Naruto said, Running behind him and pushing him forward. The constant Chakra Gaara used because of his sand acted as a lightning rod for the storm, so every second he was above ground he would be plagued by it.
Gaara ran forward, the sand starting to become more of a hindrance then an advantage. It worked as a windshield, but it slowed him down. If Naruto wasn’t behind him pushing him forward, the lighting would have already caught up with him.
“Faster! Faster! Faster! Faster! Run, Run Run!” Naruto screamed, feeling a strong heat burning at his back from another lightning strike.
The strikes started to come in higher succession as the storm drew closer, light was fading fast making it harder to find their way. The wind was getting stronger, and the amount of rain that was falling seemed surreal. “2 minutes left, I think we should head back. I can’t even see where I’m going.” Gaara called back.

“We can make it, My house is right there!” Naruto pointed forward, apparently able to see through this better then Gaara could. “Maybe you should stay out side… since the lightning likes you and all.”
Gaara nodded, steeping to the side as Naruto lifted his arms to his face and forward towards his house. He forgot to keep moving while trying to see where Naruto was exactly and was blind sided by another strike of lightning. The sand causing this was doing less to protect him now that the storm was so close and the bolt expended less energy to reach him.
He was knocked to the ground before he even realized it, the blast that did so was enough to break through the sand barrier and send a rush of electricity through his body. “AAhhhhuuun!” He felt his senses dulling, The water soaking his body almost gave the lighting enough of an edge to knock him out. But it was over too soon to do so.
Gaara flinched when a deafeningly loud roll of thunder shook Konoha, but this time the lighting didn’t come down on him.
“Whaaaaa!”
“Naruto!” Gaara climbed to his feet, almost knocked back down from the blast of another explosion. It was so close that he could see where it happened by the light the flash of lightning produced, he could also see Naruto’s body flying at him.

Gaara dived back and grabbed him out of the air, both of them falling and sliding to a stop only a few feet away. Those few feet were just enough space to avoid another lighting strike that managed to send a wave of mud over them instead. All of this sudden water was either going to making Konoha flood or turn it in to a pile of mud.
“Gaara, my house blew up before I could get the hour glass.” Naruto’s loud voice was barely able to let Gaara here him.
“It’s alright, let’s just go.” Gaara screamed at the top of his lungs, grabbing Naruto’s hand and pulling him up. Now that the wind was pushing them forward, they got a big boost in speed, enough to leave any lighting trailing them in the dust. Konoha was almost a blur, this more then made up for the resistance they faced before.

Going as fast as they were and with the sun partially blocked, Naruto’s quick eyes were still enough to spot something to the left of him. It made him come to a sliding stop, almost falling on the muddy ground. “Lee! Shikamaru!”
He spotted them in a nearby house, apparently still thinking. “Naruto, Gaara, we have to get underground, what are you doing?” Shikamaru asked, he and Lee were bombarded by water as soon as they steeped out.
“Iruka’s house, there’s an underground passage in the basement.” Naruto told them, going forward again with the wind so strong that they almost were being carried by it.
‘What are the odds?’ Lee thought to himself, following after Naruto and Gaara.
The clouds cover about half of the sun, casting a growing shadow over Konoha. At their speed they stayed just ahead of the shadow and in the last of the sunlight, giving them just enough illumination to see where they were going.

“Damnit, Is that a tornado?!”
The 4 looked over to see Sasuke, Neji and Kiba with Konohamaru on his back.
“Hey!” Naruto called over.
Sasuke glared at him, “I don’t have time for you dobe.
“This is important jerk!” Naruto shouted, “The Cloud, Mist, Water, and maybe the Sand villages have all been completely wiped off the map by this storm. We need to get to get under ground. Now!”
“Do you know a place?” Kiba asked.
“Iruka’s house, Come on!” Naruto took the lead, seeing their destination just ahead.

The sun was completely blocked out now, they could barely see were they were going. The storm became immensely worse, every time they were off the ground the wind threatened to carry them away. With that in mind, they wouldn’t have time to open the door.
“Mud slide!” Konohamaru shouted.

A large amount of mud was coming down from the Hokage monument, It was flowing from the other side of the house headed directly toward them. The more water it got from the rain, the quicker it was able to move.

It was down to the wire now, time was up and they knew it. So Sasuke took the lead, turning around in the air and jumping backwards threw Iruka’s window to shield his face from the glass.

He fell blindly in the dark, landing in the open hatch the led to the underground path. Landing on his back, he rolled in a fluid motion and came to his feet. Almost running in to Kakashi as he did so.

Next came Naruto, followed closely by Gaara. Then Neji and lastly Kiba with Akamaru under one arm and Konohamaru in the other.
The mud rushed through the house, smashing through the upper levels and breaking the down. All of it came pouring into the underground passage, rushing forward at them in a wall of murky water.
