Tenten and Neji have been battling Kisame for hours and it was now nose to nose, battling. Neji with his Byakugan out swung a chakra filled kick towards Kisame's head but missed and was thrown back.
Neji tried to get up but found himself being held down by Kisame's shadow clone. He looked up to see Tenten running towards the real Kisame.
Neji saw Kisame do some hand signs and automatically knew what he was doing. 'That's a rat sign; He is going to do a suicide jutsu!' "Ten ten!" Neji yelled as he saw a big wave of water comedown on top of her.
He ran to save her from the impact but it was already too late. She was forced into a tree. Blood started to come out of her head and back as her slide down the tree.
Neji jumped and caught her in a bridal style catch. He looked over her body to search for any wounds and see if she was still alive. He stood up and began running to find the one person that could help him.
………………………………...
Sasuke and Sakura have been fighting Itachi for awhile now and were beginning to tire out. Sasuke threw a giant fire ball straight at Itachi.
Itachi jumped out of the way of the fireball and ran towards Sakura. Sakura noticed Itachi and began to do some hand signs.
Itachi jumped in front of her when she opened her hands and placed them on his chest. A black flame started to rap itself around Itachis chest and began to absorb into his skin.
Itachi grabbed a hold of Sakura's neck and closed his eyes.
Sasuke watched in awe as he watched it all play out before him. "Seems I will die in about five minutes. Well if I die, your going to have to come with me." Itachi said as he opened his eyes to show black eyes with a red dot in the middle.
"Sakura close your eyes! It's the Soyamugan!" Sasuke screamed as he ran towards Sakura and Itachi. But it was too late, Sakura was pulled into the Soyamugan and her body fell to the floor.
Sasuke ran over and pulled the now shaking, bloody Sakura into his chest. Bruises and Scars began to form on her body. Itachis body fell lifeless to the floor and Sakura stopped shaking.
Sasuke tilted Sakura's head to meet her eyes. Her eyes were a normal green but had a gray mist over them. 'She is blind' Sasuke thought.
He picked up the limp Sakura and went to meet Neji. He found Neji a few miles away with a bloody Tenten. They both started for camp.
At camp
It was silent in the camp as Sasuke and Neji tried to stay calm under all the pressure. Both working hard on trying to heal both girls.
Neji was doing some progress but the wound to Tentens head would not heal fast enough and Neji was at the last of his chakra.
Fed up with the wound he quickly wrapped it and put a cold pack on her forehead.
He slowly got up and walked sadly to the little creak at the edge of the camp.
As he began to wash his face he heard an ear piercing scream. He ran up to the camp to see Tenten grabbing at her head.
Neji ran to her and tried to calm her down but she kept shaking. She finally stopped shaking five minutes later.
Neji looked down as her still face as tears fell down his cheeks. He was scared, scared of losing her again. He felt her chest rise slower and slower.
She was dieing, he knew that by her rasp breathes and slow heart beat. She was dieing and there was nothing that he could do.
He looked up at the sky and could feel his eyes slowly begin to close. Last thing he remembered was a pair of hands pulling Tentens body away.
Sasuke begins to pump more and more chakra into Sakura's wounds. He slowly wipes the sweat off his forehead and stands up.
He looks around the campsite to see Neji busy healing Tenten. He sees a sadden scowl on Nejis face as his chakra begins to deplete.
He looks down at Sakura's scrunched up face. She was in pain and he didn't know how he could fix it. He was slowly running out of chakra and her wounds were worsening.
He bent down to feel for Sakura's heart pulse. Her heart rate was slowly decreasing and her face was becoming paler.
He would use more healing jutsu but that would take up to much of his chakra that he need for everyone else.
He grabbed for the medic bag Sakura carried on her but stopped when he heard an ear piercing scream.
He turned around to see Neji huddling over Tenten. Suddenly Neji began to fall and Sasuke ran to grab Tenten from his arms.
He pulled Tenten from Nejis arms and gently draped Nejis body over his shoulder as he placed Tentens body under his arm.
He placed them both next to Sakura's body and watched over them.
'Neji is down with no chakra left, Tenten is down with a concussion, Sakura is down with wounds and blindness and Sasuke has no Chakra left. This is a good opportunity to strike.' Someone thought as he jumped down from the trees.
