i don't think Gaara will bother to show up in the middle of no where .....and about Kiba jumping into the stream i think it was a good idea because he has already injured Ukon/Sukon to the point where one of them has to like go sleep....and they were talking about resting somewhere before they would kill Kiba....so Kiba did his job of stoping one of the sound nin to a point where he won't go after Kim or Tayyua....so now its just Kimimaro and Tayyua who are left.....Naruto is not gonna loose coz Sasuke is coming out of the barrel soon....so if he shows up....than....Naruto , Sasuke and Kim are going to have a long gay chat about how Kim wants to prove to his master "Oro" that he can still be of some help , and Sasuke would be ....i am strong now i can beat Itachi...and Naruto be ....i promised Sakura that i would bring Sasuke back......and i don't think Sasuke would go to Oro after listening to Kim...on why does he want to take Sasuke to Oro....


obviosuly....Kimimaro would talk about how he couldn't provide his body for Oro and now Oro needs Sasuke so that he can take over his body.....Sasuke will get pissed when he hears that ...because he thought Oro is gonna train him or something...instead he wants him as a vessel for himself.....Sasuke will go Level 2 after Naruto get beaten to death(almost) and than Sasuke would repay naruto for the time he saved him from Gaara...

end of story...they'll all go back home as best friends..
