Waking up to the melody that the birds were singing; Sakura lazily got up. Her eyes gave her a hard time to stay wide open. 'That's what you get for being up all hours of the night with that Hidan guy!' Her inner lectured.

Oh come on, you gotta admit he was hot. Sakura thought with a smirk.

Her inner shook her head with disappointment. 'You are a crazy bit-' She got broken off as Naruto came running towards her recklessly. "Sakura-chan! You're finally up, we need to get going. Kakashi-sensei is going to get pissed off again."

With a nod she got up and packed her belongings and equipment as the day got hotter.

Morning died away for the day, while Team 7 was leaping through the trees; barely nearing lands of the Hot Springs. Everything that they past floated with a blur as they glided on through the trees.

"So when do you think we would get there?" Sakura tried to speed up her pace with Kakashi's. He didn't bother to look at her, he remained his gaze in front of the. Then finally he manage to spit out a couple of words. "At the least, I would say a day an a half."

With a nod she slowed her pace lining herself up with Naruto. He was looking at her weirdly as they still leapt through the trees. "So Sakura-chan what are you planning on doing when we get into a village-" "I'm getting a nice hot bath." She smiled like a retard on crack. Naruto didn't know what else to say so he just gave her an uncomfortable smile.

Sai was lined up behind Kakashi, he was listening careful around his team's surroundings. With a cautioned look upon his face, the leaves rattled beside him darting his eyes to that direction.

"Sakura! Watch out!" Sai yelled as he twisted his body around. Sakura gasp at the kunai that sliced through her bicep [her arm]. Blood spurted out as she caught the dashing kunai and thrown it back at the direction where it came from. Kakashi pulled up his protector and activated his sharigan. Stopping at a total dead beat, Team 7 became silent and patient.

Then a storm of kunai came raining down from the tree tops to the tree branches. Sakura jumped back, dodging one while getting stabbed with another in her back.

She didn't have time to manage out a scream while more storms of kunai knives heavily fell from the tree tops.

After being struck by more and more kunai, Sakura fell from the not supporting branch and hit the ground with a big bang. Blood coughed out of her lung, leaving her in even more pain than the first kunai has caused [which was kind of dull though].

Naruto, Sai, and Kakashi-sensei were no where to be found! But blood dripped from the limbs of the trees with the sound of still dashing kunai.

Sakura's eyes began to feel heavy. 'No! Sakura stay awake, you gotta stay awake.' exclaimed her inner.

Her body felt seriously num, she couldn't move her fingers or toes at the least. She manage to move her eyes to look straight up to the sky and a shadowy figure hover over her. It took her a minute to recognize that it Hidan. Why wasn't he with his group?

"Now you're safe with me." he kneeled down and scooped her into his arms carefully, then she couldn't stay awake anymore. Her eyelids blinded her view of his face, immediately putting her into deep, long sleep.

The sun beat down on her soft, glowing pink hair. Her jade eyes studied her surroundings. Flowers were planted on the soft ground, a couple of large oak trees planted themselves around her.

Where am I? Sakura thought.

'You're dreaming dumb ass.' Her inner scolded.

She forced her body up, making the flowers under her rise with relief from not being under pressure anymore.

Then seeing him created butterflies in her stomach. He looked at her with a grin. There faces were inches away from each other's. "You look beautiful.' Hidan cupped her face with his cold hands. Her body froze under his grasp. Then his face leaned in and their lips crashed together.

The kissing put fire works into her stomach. His hands remained cupping her face as he slowly slip his tongue on top of her's. Massaging each other's tongues Hidan leaned in with a moan, now gently pinning her to a nearby tree.

Waking up abruptly, Sakura gasped loudly, braking the silence of the night's atmosphere. She was placed on the ground covered with thick blanket made out of white fur. Out of the corner of her eye she notice a nicely lit fire and Hidan sitting calmly by it with his arms crossed.

He gave her an awkward glance causing her to blush. "So what was with you on the ground?"

All of her memory began to fill her mind. She ruffled her body through the thick sheet, trying to get her freezing body towards the fire. "My team got ambushed by someone. But I have no clue who though."

He nodded, looking away from her. "Well, you took it pretty badly so I'll recommend your ass to not be walking around like you got all the energy in the world."

Sakura nodded. Her body was beyond sore. It was stinging and aching all over her pale, cold body. Just from moving from the blanket to the fire, her stomach began to bleed again. "Shit." she muttered covering her wound with her hands.

He sat by her. "Lay down."

She did as she was told, she lightly laid her back onto the dirt. Hidan pulled up her blood covered shirt where it almost showed the bottom of her breasts. But he tried his best to ignore. Okay if I remember write I have to take a needle and stitch around the wound. Hidan thought.

He dig out a needle from his pocket. After that, he ripped a corner of his cloak and tied the thread to the end of the needle. "Hold your breathe, Sakura."

She breathed a deep breath in while Hidan positioned the readied need at the end of the deep wound. "Ready?" he looked out of the corner of his eye to seen her pink hair nod up and down.

He put pressure on the needle, forcing it through her skin, wound, and through the other side of the wound. She breathed slower but in heavier breathes. Her eyes wonder over his face as he operated on her stomach. When he was finish; he has Sakura's blood all over his hands. She would've got up but that would have ruined the whole point of having stitches.

Hidan's hand were rubbing against his cloak, cleaning his hands thoroughly with it. Sakura watched him carefully. "Thank you." she said in a husky voice. His eyes looked into her's. Then a long silence occurred between them.

Morning rose, Hidan was helping Sakura getting off the ground. Thanks to his strength they were successful at the situation. She remained in his arms as she got used to standing. Her legs were weak and shaking with pain, Sakura's arms were wrapped around Hidan's neck, still trying to regain support into her legs. Then His hands traveled to her hips. Her eyes grew wide with a blush as he straighten her thighs, by now she could stand on her own two feet.

Then Sakura let go of her neck and stood calmly by herself while Hidan looked at her. "I think you should stick with me; just in case anything happens."

Sakura froze, with her one of her eyes twitching with disbelief. "Wha..?"

"You heard me! You know damn well what I just said." He pointed at her.

"But I have a team to go back to, a village, a home."

"Yeah. Your team is probably dead and your village will….uh…" He had no clue what to say. Sakura nodded.

"Well do you wanna die in the middle of no where?" Hidan asked.

Ignoring the question Sakura asked, "Is the Land of Hot Springs near here?"

Hidan's eyes lit up and nodded. " Yeah that's my home land; I can lead you there."

She smiled at him " Please do!" and she hugged him. Hidan's body was tensed. "Hey, do go all moist on me."

"Moist? You perv!" Sakura smacked his arm as he chuckled at her reaction.

"Hey, that's how I roll."

Sakura rolled her eyes and began to follow Hidan's footsteps. Off to the Land of Hot Springs! Hopefully I will see Naruto, Sai, and Kakashi-sensei…. Sakura thought.

'Ohhh did you see how Hidan was all over you?!?!' Sakura's inner chanted with a giggle. ' I know damn well you want to get moist for him!'

Shut up! Sakura blushed. 'You know you like it when you think Hidan will be f--'

"Shut up!" Sakura snapped aloud.

Hidan peeked his head over his shoulder. "I didn't even say anything."

Sakura blushed. "Oh-um!"

And then he moved his head towards his direction. Sakura was thinking with anger, You better shut the fuck up before I'm going to beat the shit outta you!

Her inner rolled her eyes and remained quiet as her comeback.

But her and Hidan still walked, getting close and closer to the Land of Hot Springs.
