Chapter Four

Normal POV

Kakashi couldn't believe what he was seeing. Sasuke looked horrible far worse then he did that day in his bathroom. Kakashi bent down Sasuke had yet to open his eyes his was shaking uncontrollably. 'What have they done to you?' Kakashi thought. Slowly Kakashi moved his hand to push some of Sasuke's hair behind his ear and out of his eyes. Sasuke made a whimpering sound the second Kakashi's hand touched his face. Kakashi still didn't say anything he was in too much shock at how bad he was.

Once the hair was moved Kakashi could see the bruising that ran along his jaw. His blood boiled Kakashi knew that there was only one way to get bruising like that and it was from having your mouth open for too long. Whoever it was that was doing this had been forcing Sasuke to perform oral sex. That's when Kakashi smelt the smell in the room and it was from sex. Sasuke smelt like sex which for Kakashi would normally be a turn on but not when it was a thirteen year old boy.

The silence and waiting was only making Sasuke worse by the minute.

"Sasuke it's me open your eyes."

Sasuke couldn't believe what he was hearing he thought he heard Kakashi's voice but that's impossible. Slowly he opened his eyes to see Kakashi bent down in front of him. Sasuke went to speak it was hard for him his throat was so raw from being choked, from no water and from too rough oral sex.

"Your… not…here I'm *cough, cough, cough* just hallu…hallucinating *cough, cough* from *cough* no water… and *cough* no sleep."

Sasuke went into a coughing fit after that his throat hurt so bad to even speak it was like knives going up and down his throat. Kakashi couldn't believe how hard it was just for Sasuke to speak there was so much pain in his eyes Kakashi didn't think he could handle this. Sasuke didn't even think what he was seeing was real he couldn't feel Kakashi's chakra at all he was so weak. Instead of arguing with Sasuke Kakashi decided to show him he turned his attention to the chains.

Sasuke watched as Kakashi turned his attention to the chains that bound him to this room of hell. He watched as Kakashi picked the lock and with that his hands were free. Sasuke looked Kakashi in the eye, slowly Sasuke moved his left hand the hand that wasn't broken. He slowly placed it against Kakashi's chest expecting it to go right through. Kakashi didn't speak he didn't move he just allowed Sasuke to prove to himself that he was in fact very real. Sasuke's hand made it to Kakashi's chest and it didn't go through, a tear rolled down Sasuke's cheek with the realization that Kakashi was in fact real. The sound of his mother's pleads filled the room again Sasuke closed his eyes he couldn't hear it or see it anymore it was too much all of it. Sasuke couldn't help it he found himself placing his head against Kakashi's chest. Kakashi wrapped his arms around Sasuke being careful not to hurt him anymore then he already was.

"Please *cough, cough* make… it *cough* stop *cough*"

"I got a better idea lets get you out of here and away from all of this."

Sasuke gave a nod. Kakashi gently picked Sasuke up bridal style he let out a scream, well as much of a scream as he could with his throats current condition. Everything hurt to unbearable levels he just wanted to sleep and to be warm. The room was so cold his lips held a hint of blue in them. Sasuke found himself trying to get closer to Kakashi's chest he was so warm and Sasuke needed to smell something other then blood and sex.

Kakashi understood what Sasuke was trying to do and he held him closer.

"It's going to be ok I'm taking you to a hospital hang on Sasuke."

Sasuke didn't want to go to the hospital he knew that Danzou would find out and that terrified him. He was in too much pain though to argue so he tried to focus on thinking of an excuse. They would never suspect Danzou to be the kidnapper as long as they didn't find any DNA he should be able to lie. Kakashi looked down and could see Sasuke blacking in and out he was in too much pain he couldn't handle it.

"Sasuke I need you to stay with me here. Come on look at me Sasuke I don't need you to talk because I know it hurts. I do need you to keep your eyes open and look at me so I know your still with me. Were almost there just hang on ok once we get there Tsunade can heal you and take that pain away."

"The light *cough* hurts my… head *cough, cough, cough*"

"Why does your head hurt Sasuke?"

Kakashi knew he shouldn't be taking advantage of Sasuke's current state. However he was delirious which meant he would tell the truth it may be the only chance Kakashi got.

"Really bad… headache."

"From what?"

"That Jutsu *cough* he always… *cough, cough, cough, cough* uses on… me"

"You mean that Jutsu?"

"No… the one he *cough* always uses *cough, cough, cough* since the…exams"

"Who's he?"

"I… I can't… tell you *cough*"

"Yes you can Sasuke you can tell me."

"He'll already *cough* hurt…me for this… *cough, cough, cough* I…can't"

"Sasuke listen to me I am going to protect you. There isn't going to be anymore pain he won't hurt you. Please Sasuke just give me a name and it'll stop."

"Dan *cough* Dan *cough, cough, cough* Dan…"

"Danzou what are you doing here?"

Sasuke's heart sank he was so close to telling Kakashi that it was Danzou. If Danzou was there then that meant he was coming to torment Sasuke even more. Kakashi was annoyed Sasuke was just about to get the name out and yet here he was looking at Danzou of all people.

"I decided to go out for a walk. What's going on?"

"I found Sasuke locked in the Uchiha manor. Whoever kidnapped him had left him there I'm on my way to the hospital now. So if you would excuse me."

"I'll come with you I would like to know who is responsible so we can take action."

Kakashi nodded it wasn't like he had much of a choice. Frustration filled Kakashi he knew now with Danzou here that Sasuke was done talking. All he could do now was hope that he would be able to get Sasuke to talk later when they were alone. Kakashi did know one thing that was for certain Sasuke would be staying with him until this was dealt with and it was safe for Sasuke once again.

They arrived at the hospital a few minutes later. Sasuke was still awake despite the screams from his body to give in. Kakashi looked around the main area of the hospital. He needed to find Tsunade so she could heal Sasuke; not only that Tsunade was probably the only one scary enough to keep Danzou away. Kakashi needed to get the name out of Sasuke and fast.

Kakashi found Tsunade talking with what would appear to be a group of interns. The one girl that was looking in their direction; Kakashi could see it on her face that she was ether going to scream and freak out or she was going to stand there shocked like an idiot. Ether way she needed to reconsider her career choice.

The small long blonde hair girl chose the first option. Causing Tsunade to turn around and face them; it also caused another one of the interns slapping the girl across the face to get her to calm down. Tsunade couldn't hide the surprise that carried across her aged face. She didn't say a word probably to shocked to form a sentence; she just pushed Kakashi into the closest room. Although she must have been getting over her state of shock, because she didn't fail to notice Danzou with them. Nor did she fail to close the room door in his face. Tsunade couldn't stand the man or his ethics she had no use for him. She had been waiting for him to make a mistake so she could take him out. One mistake that's all it would take just one and she could give him what he deserves.

Kakashi placed Sasuke down on the bed. Tsunade came over to him and was just about to heal Sasuke when Kakashi grabbed her wrists. Tsunade looked up at Kakashi expecting an explanation.

"Wait just wait one minute before you heal him."

"He needs to be healed Kakashi now let go."

"He was just about to tell me who did this just before Danzou showed up. I'll explain later I promise, but when he's like this he talks. This may be our only chance to find out who did this."

"You have one minute and I mean just one minute Kakashi."

Kakashi let go of Tsunade's wrists and turned his attention to Sasuke. He was lying on the bed still shaking from fear, pain and the cold Kakashi figured. He was curled up on his side with his hands on his head. Kakashi remembered Sasuke saying that some kind of Jutsu that was used made his head hurt. He was so beat up; blood was already on the sheets from his shirt. His right wrist looked shattered, the bruises that covered his body was unbelievable. Kakashi spoke softly and quietly he didn't want to make the boy's headache worse.

"Sasuke I need that name."

"*cough* I… can't *cough, cough*"

"Yes you can it's just the three of us in the room. I promise you that I will protect you."

"No… *cough* he'll *cough, cough, cough * hear…me"

Kakashi and Tsunade both looked at each other. Both of their faces asking the same question if they had just heard him correctly. Before ether of them could ask Sasuke started to faint. Kakashi placed a hand on Sasuke's shoulder.

"Hey Sasuke talk to me. Come on Sasuke stay with us."

It was too late Sasuke had already blacked out. Tsunade rolled Sasuke over she checked his pulse it was weak. That's when she noticed he wasn't breathing.

"He's not breathing Kakashi start chest compressions."

Tsunade tipped Sasuke's head back a bit so she could do the breathing. Kakashi placed his hands on Sasuke's chest and began.

"One, two, three, four, five, breathe."

Tsunade pinched Sasuke's nose closed and started to breathe into his mouth. Kakashi watched after five he started again.

"One, two, three, four, five, breathe."

Again Kakashi watched Tsunade breathe there was still no response. Panic filled Kakashi's entire being Sasuke can't die this couldn't be happening.

"One, two, three, four, five, breathe."

Tsunade placed her mouth against Sasuke's once again. Kakashi was just about to start again when Sasuke started to cough. To Kakashi's horror he was coughing up blood and very quickly choking on it. They rolled him over on his side and Kakashi patted his back to help get the blood up.

"He's bleeding internally I have to be quick."

Tsunade went to work healing Sasuke. He was bleeding internally and if she wasn't fast enough he would soon bleed to death. Kakashi stood there holding Sasuke's hand that wasn't broken. It was all he could do for him right now.

It felt like hours before Tsunade looked up at him. Sasuke was still awake despite his body's cries for sleep. Sasuke couldn't though he knew better then to sleep when Danzou hadn't said he could. Danzou had made rules for Sasuke to follow long ago. Danzou always told him when he was allowed to sleep.

Over the years Sasuke would take the risk and sleep on the nights when he wasn't told. After what happened in the last five months more specifically the last three weeks, Sasuke wasn't going to do anything he wasn't allowed to. No matter how desperately he wanted to sleep.

"Kakashi I need to speak to you. Sasuke you need to get some sleep. I'm going to hook this IV up it will put nutrience and fluids back into you. The best thing for you is to sleep."

Once the IV was in Sasuke's arm Tsunade dragged Kakashi out of the room and closed the door behind them. She brought Kakashi into an empty waiting room and closed the door so they could have privacy. All of which didn't go unnoticed by Danzou. He wanted to go into speak with Sasuke but he couldn't do anything with all of these people around. So he chose to wait till Sasuke was realized to speak with him.

Danzou turned his attention to the room that held Tsunade and Kakashi. He decided to go over and step in to see what story Sasuke gave. Danzou walked into the room Tsunade and Kakashi both looked at him. Danzou decided to speak first.

"So what's going on here?"
