Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto. . . . . what I do own is a computer that hardly ever works.*sigh* Thank goodness I'm getting it fixed.
SAKURA'S P.O.V
Naruto and Sasuke have fought before, but this time they truly intended to kill each other. I remember asking myself who would I save first if both of them were on the verge of dying. Sasuke's death would mark the beginning of a life without the painful feeling of heartache and rejection.
If the Hidden Leaf's number one knucklehead ninja died, all of Konoha's happiness and hope would perish with him. The Leaf Village would never be the same. Neither would I.
My body seemed to react on it's own. The next thing I knew I was sprinting toward the battle. I knew that I wasn't in my right mind. Kakashi Sensei's yells of protest became more and more distance as I got closer to Naruto and Sasuke.
I fought through the violent blasts of wind and gritted my teeth as I charged ahead. I focused almost all of my remaining chakra into my right arm. I wasn't going to let Sasuke hurt Naruto anymore than he already had. I was going to punch him harder than Lady Tsunade could in a drunken rage. I inwardly shuddered while I remembered how she furiously flew her sake bottle aside then smashed a very frightened Genma into next week.
"Rasengan!"
"Chido-"
"Cha!"
My fists collided with the side of Sasuke's face; the face I had once gazed at in admiration. Now I looked at his face with pure disgust. I watched the Uchiha's eyes widen in surprise and confusion, just before he went flying of into the distance. Suddenly my eyes widened in realization. Naruto's Rasengan penetrated my ribcage sending me flying.
"Sakura!" He shook me senseless trying to get me conscious.
"N . . . Naruto?"
" Sakura-chan!" He yelled still shaking me.
"Don't be so loud baka!" I shot back, smacking his hands away.
"Why . . . . ?" He pleaded in a softer tone.
I sighed. " I'm sorry I was just sick of Sasuke –"
" Sasuke. . . . .?" He asked confused. " What the hell does he have to do with you punching Kakashi Sensei?
Wait. . . . what? I don't remember punching Kakashi Sensei?
I gave Naruto a great look of confusion. What happened?
" Uh . . .Naruto, what happened?"
He looked at me in disbelief. "You must have hit your head really hard."
"Can you just tell me what happened?!" I barked.
"Ok, sheesh." "Well it all started when . . . "
