"Be careful Madara!" Crimson pushed herself off the wall and looked to Sasuke. "Come on! We have to cheer for him!"
Grabbing her teacher's arm, she pulled him to the front of the spectators.
"TEAR A LIMB!" Crimson yelled, "Ah, n-not literally...."

Madara started. He took out his shurikens and aimed it at the opponent.
The guy dodged it and charged towards Madara. He hit Madara at the chest but Madara's body began to liquify.
"Sorry, man. If you don't have any tricks up your sleeves, I'll take out mine."
The man went through Madara and stumbled. Madara reached out his arm to grab the opponent's arm and flipped him around. Madara took out his exploding tag and put it on the man's forehead.
"That was easy...right, Crimson?"
Madara walked away as the tag exploded on the guy's forehead and caused blood to spill everywhere.

"Y-yeah..." Crimson tilted her head to see the blood. "Uh..mm..."
Wow. That was a lot of blood. "G-great job Madara."
Poor guy.
"You're not hurt are you?"

"yeah. Come on, there's little blood on your clothes. Clean it off."
Madara said as he cleaned his clothes.

Blood?
"Huh?" Crimson looked down on her clothes. "Aw..."
Giving of a small laugh Crimson turned her gaze to Madara, "I guess that's what I get for being in the front."
"I think I'm going to need water for this." She said as she started to scrub.

As she was preoccupied, the man who started shouting was calling Madara the winner and was looking for his next fight. But three shadows came upto them with obvious intentions to harm. THey were upset they're friend had died so easily and wanted revenge.

"Madara..." Crimson said softly.

"It's okay Crimson. I'm not going to kill them. I'll just simply let them pass through me."
Madara made a clone and let it fight the other three. The real Madara sat up in a tree.
"...hmph..revenge....won't do you good......"
As the fight finished and all three exhausted from hitting Madara and missing, Madara's clone disappeared. He jumped down the tree.
"I think you guys.....lost."
He put three exploding tags on their foreheads and at once they exploded.
"Too violent, aren't I Crimson?"

"A bit." Crimson gave off a nervous laugh.
That would be a bad thing is she was Madara's enemy.
"I guess you were in the right since they were trying to kill you. And they knew what you were capable of."
Crimson looked down and started to wipe the blood off. "Hm, what a mess though. Maybe you should try using pressure points. hahaha..."

"No, I don't really want to get close with the enemy."
Madara said as he cleaned the blood.

"Really?" Crimson's interest perked, "But you're good at close combat aren't you?"
Finally! No more blood.

"It's just that I don't really like close combat. Didn't you see after that one close combat fight, I used a clone to fight the other three? I think its OCD."

Crimson gave a bit of a laugh. "I guess I still have to learn what's real and what's not still."
Noticing Sasuke had been quiet for a while she looked at him and saw his blood stained face. "Hey!"
She snapped her fingers infront of his face and took a bit of her cloak to wipe the blood off, "You look like you're thinking too much. Something wrong?"

!!!
Crimson's body went rigid. "Sasuke?"
Was something wrong? This was odd. Did something happen? Crimson started to relax. "You ok?"
She said as she patted his back.

Fixing her hair a bit before following him, Crimson held out her hand to take a hold of Sasuke's coil. "You...alright?"
She had never seen Sasuke with his head down. Usually he was proud and so sure of himself. This was different. This wasn't Sasuke's usual atititude.

"Um..."
There was the Sasuke she knew. Crimson smiled, "Um..."
Sasuke didn't need anymore questions, "That fight was great!"
She abandoned her previous query and changed the subject.

Frowning at the sudden cold shoulder Crimson stopped infront of Sasuke, "If something's wrong tell me! Don't...don't distance yourself again."
She was referring to the last time.

"Are you kidding me?" Crimson said with unbelief. "Why wouldn't I care?"
Turning a bit red now for screaming she turned around, "N-Never mind."

"Sorry Crimson. Sasuke's being a little sentimental."
Madara said as he ruffled her hair.

Madara walked with Crimson.
"Crimson, I don't know much about you. May i ask a few questions? If....you don't mind, that is."
