"All right," Pain said, "Hidan, Kazuku, Deidara, and Sasori, rendezvous outside Konoha's territory. We'll attack there first."
"Why? Hmm?" Deidara asked, "Wouldn't another nation be better? Like the Sand Village?"
"You just want that one as you'll get your target sooner," Sasori said.
"You'll attack Konoha as it was there Orochimaru last used the scroll. We may find some information on it we don't have right now. Also, depending on how they are suffering after any possible attack, it might be a good time to fight them," Pain said, "Now Dismissed!" All the illusions vanished and Zetsu took the scroll and pocketed it.
"Time for some food," Zetsu black said.
"I've been waiting a while for this," the white said.
Meanwhile Pain and Konan looked at each other.
"You would of chosen Hidan anyway as he's the most expendable of us, wouldn't you?" Konan asked.
"Yes," Pain said, "I just wish we knew where that bastard had that ring hidden away."
"We'll find it eventually," Konan said.
"The sooner the better," Pain said.

During this time, Naruto slept nicely in his bed, where he had some of the weirdest dreams imaginable. But as he woke, he looked around. He was back in his bed, in his normal pajamas, and his nightcap on. "Weird," he thought, sliding to get out of bed. But when he put his foot down, it came into contact with something a little soft, but poking upwards. As he increased pressure without thinking, something hit his foot.
"Hey!" Sakura yelled at him, now awake, "I'm right here you dummy!" Naruto looked down at Sakura and retracted his foot from her face.
"Sakura, why are you here?" Naruto asked.
"You don't remember?" Sakura asked, "About being a giant?" Naruto's eyes opened widely.
"That wasn't a dream?" Naruto asked, "But now I'm small again."
"I'm glad Naruto's all right," Sakura thought watching his reactions, "Now Lady Tsunade wanted me to inform Naruto on everything that has happened. But we should probably wait for the grow on will part until later." "Naruto, let's go to the training field, you've been out for three days," Sakura said, "So you probably need to train some. Then I'll treat you as you are to some ramen." Thankfully there were still parts of Naruto's mind not working as he missed the line "as you are".
"All right Sakura!" Naruto yelled.
Naruto quickly dressed in his old clothes and went to the door.
