Chapter 2
"I wonder where Sakura is. Usually she'll be here already." Naruto says to Sasuke. The two was already at the meeting spot. "Maybe if she doesn't get here when Kakashi gets here then we should go look for her." Naruto says. Sasuke shrugs. About 10 minutes later Kakashi appears. "Hey Team. Sorry I'm late I… just…" Kakashi slowly stops and looks around. "Where's Sakura?" he asks. Sasuke and Naruto shrugs. "She hasn't come yet." Sasuke answers. Kakashi sighs. "Come on. Let's go check her house." With that the three goes off toward Sakura's house.
Kakashi knocks on the door. Immediately Mrs. Haruno answers the door with Mr. Haruno right behind her. "Good Morning Mrs. and Mr. Haruno. Is Sakura home?" Kakashi asks them. Mrs. Haruno shakes her head. "No, she didn't come home yesterday night." she answers crying. "How can that be? She went home right after we were done training." says Naruto. "Well she's not here can you find her?" asks Mr. Haruno. Kakashi nods. "Naruto go and inform Tsunade and tell her to meet us at the Konoha Gates. Sasuke, you'll split up with me and tell the other teams to meet up at the gates right away. Mr. and Mrs. Haruno stay here just in case Sakura appears here." Kakashi says. Everyone nods then split up going to do what they were told to do.
"Ok, Sakura has gone missing and we need to find her. Here." Kakashi hands everyone headsets. "We'll us this to communicate. With each other." he says. "We'll be searching from here to the borders. And since that's a lot of ground we'll need to split up to cover more ground. We will regroup back here in a hour." informs Kakashi. "Now move out." With that everyone speeds off into the forest.
"Ok, everyone it's been an hour. Everyone come back now. We need to try something else." Sasuke hears Kakashi's voice from his headset. Sasuke slightly sighs. "Did anyone find anything that can help us?" he asks into the headset. Only answers he got back were no's. "Ok see ya all back at the Gates." he says. As Sasuke starts walking back towards the gates something in the grass caught his eye.
Sasuke walks over to the object. It was a kunai. It has a pink ribbon on the handle. Just like Sakura's. Sasuke picks up the kunai. While looking around he sees a lot of different kinds of weapons. He then freezes when he sees the body where little charka was coming from. "Sakura." he says staring at the figure. "Sakura!" he runs and drops down onto his knees next to the figure. The figures dirty hair covered its face. Sasuke lifts his hand and turns the figures face toward him. Just as he figured he finds his self staring at his pink-haired teammate.
"Sakura." he whispers. He looks at her body. Her clothes were ripped and tattered and all over her body was injures. 'What the hell happened here? And who did this?' him mind screams. "Sakura…Sakura open your eyes." Sasuke says. When she didn't he started to panic. "Please Sakura open your eyes." he says shaking her gently. He stops when he sees her eyes starting to open. Her eyes stop half way as she looks up at Sasuke. She didn't know if she was seeing things or what but she can swear that she sees worry in Sasuke's eyes. "Sakura what happened here?" She hears Sasuke's voice ask. Sakura looks away.
"Sasuke?! Where the hell are you? You need to get back here so we can come up with another plan to find Sakura!" shouts Kakashi's voice from Sasuke's head set. Sasuke puts the mic up to his mouth and pushes the talk button. "Dammit. Calm your damn Kakashi-Sensei!" Sasuke shouts back. "I found her. I'm bringing her back now." he says calming his self down. Sasuke looks down at the pale girl. He stands up and then picks Sakura up carefully. Sasuke then starts walking back toward the Gates.
As Sasuke walks onto the path and toward the Konoha Gates he looks down at Sasuke. "Sakura." he says. Sakura looks up at him. "You need your rest, Sakura. You have too many injures. When we get back to the other I'm taking you to the hospital." Sasuke says looking up at the path. "I promise that every free minute I have I'll be by your side." he says. Sakura buries her face in Sasuke's shirt. Sasuke looks at her then back at the path as he continues to walk.
"Hey it's Sasuke! And I think he's carrying Sakura!" Naruto yells as Sasuke comes into view. "Naruto shut up you're pointing out what we already know." says a girl with brown hair in two buns. "Shut up, Tenten. I didn't ask you!" Naruto shouts at the girl. "Naruto I advise you to watch how you talk to her or my fist will be talking to your face and it won't be pretty." says on of the two kids that has pearl eyes. "Cousin Neji, p-please calm d-down. You t-too Naruto." says the other kid that has pearl eyes. "Hinata's right. Anyways come on we need to see how bad Sakura's body is." says a girl was long blond hair. "Whatever Ino." replies Naruto.
Sasuke stops walking as everyone surrounds him to look at the pink-haired shinobi, whose face is still buried in Sasuke's shirt. "Oh m-my god. W-What happened to h-her?" asks Hinata. Sasuke shrugs slightly. "I don't know but I will find out. And when I do they will pay for what they did to my Sakura." Sasuke says walking past everyone through the Konoha Gates and toward the hospital. Everyone stares at his retreating form.
"Is it just me or did he just say his Sakura?" asks Kurenai. Everyone looks at her then nods their heads. "He said his Sakura alright." says Kiba. "Yea well we can think about that later but right now we should go to the hospital." says Ino. "Wait what about Sakura's parents?" asks Tenten. "I got it covered." Tsunade says snapping her fingers and two of her guards disappear. "Anyways come on we have to go see Sakura." she says walking toward that hospital.
