Chapter Three: The Run Away Bride-to-Be

When Shikamaru came to the scene Sasuke and Neji were seen helping Ino up. Shikamaru quickly rushed over and took over.

"Ino-hime, what happen?!" Shikamaru was so worry about her. He saw her face was red from like a slap. He brought one of his hands to her cheek where she had been slapped.

"In-" Shikamaru wasn't even done saying her name when she spoke. She was out of Shikamaru's grasp and clung to Neji.

"He took her! Neji! He took her! He took Hinata-chan away!" Ino was crying now. Shikamaru sort of felt hurt when she ran to Neji instead. But knowing Shikamaru a feeling like this was also too troublesome to show.

"WHO?" Neji demanded, but Ino only shook her head. "INO WH-" Neji stopped when Shikamaru pulled her away and tried to calm her down.

"I-I d-don't know. H-h-he was t-too fa-ast for m-me." Ino was now trying to stop crying, but was now hiccuping.

"How did he look like?" Sasuke finally spoke up. A very piss Neji looked at Ino for more detail.

"I-I d-didn't see m-uch-" Ino was cut off by Neji.

"NOT MUCH?! YOU WERE WITH HER RIGHT?! YOU WERE WITH HER WHEN THIS HAPPEN CORRECT?! SO WHY CAN'T YOU TELL US HOW THE MAN WHO TOOK HINATA-HIME LOOKS LIKE?!" Neji was losing it.

"She wasn't done, Neji!" Shikamaru was no piss too.

"H-he had a-a bl-ack m-ask. O-nly one e-ye vi-siable. He l-looked like he had an eye patch." Ino starting to stop her hiccuping and stuttering.

"We-" The very piss Neji was cut of by Sasuke-Ouji.

"That's good enough Ino. I'll tell my men to look for Hinata-hime. Why don't you all get some rest." Sasuke was about to leave. Neji stepped forward to shout at the Uchiha.

"HOW CAN YOU BE CALM WHEN CLEARLY HINA-" Neji suddenly passed out and passed out on the ground.

"I'll take him back to his chambers." Shikamaru was the one of had knock Neji out. Putting Neji on one of his shoulders he left. Ino soon too left back to her chambers.

Before drifting to sleep,

'I hope your happy, Hinata-chan.' Ino thought.

Lightning struck as she ran away from the castle. Trying to run as fast as she could she was crying. Leaving Ino behind with everything. But she just had to. She didn't want to live this life.

As she ran thunder was heard. Which made her yelp and fall. Hinata was now muddy and dirty. She started to cry even more, but tried to stop because this was the path she choosen so she couldn't.

As she ran again she had ran into someone.

"Ah! I'm so sorry!" Hinata tried to leave when the man grabbed her wrist.

"Um...Pleas...let...g..." Hinata try saying please let me go, but fail when the wiped away her tears.

"Are you alright?" He asked in a cool, yet a warm carrying voice.

--

"Tenten-chan! I'm heading out for a while!" Sakura shouted as she left with a bag. As she left Tenten peek outside and thought,

'Where does she go?' Tenten was now getting very curious where Sakura goes.

Sakura today made him breakfast and was planning to clean his room.

As she open his door, the sunny light had shot him in the face.

"OW! Sakura close the door! It hurts the eyes!" Naruto yelled as Sakura stepped in his house and opened his blinds.

"It's not my fault you're not awake." Sakura told him. As she walked closer to him she saw a lump next to him.

"KYAAAAAAAA!" Sakura screamed out. Naruto was covering his ears.

"What the hell, Sakura!" Naruto didn't even bother of adding 'chan' to her name.

"Wh-why? D-didn't y-y-ou tell me t-that you had s-soo-meone here?!" Sakura stutter pointing at the lump that was now waking up.

"Huh?" The lump spoke. She looked around seeing the man from yesterday and a pink thing. "KYAAAAA!" She cried and then faited. Naruto and Sakura just looked at her like O.o

--

After all this they finally got it right.

As Hinata told her story everthing made sense.

"Oh, so let's me get this. You ran away from a force mariagge, and bumped into Naruto-kun and you two ended up falling asleep on the same bed, right?" Sakura asked finishing. Naruto and Hinata both nodded their heads.

By the time this was all settle it was noon.

Sakura had left to go shopping for Tenten and them so yeah.

"Let's see, some corrots, Oh! Tomotoes too!" She talked to herself as she grabbed the food. After buy a ton of food she left. Not looking where she ran into a person.

"I'm very sorry, sir." Sakura apolizige picking up the fallen food. As she was about to pick up the tomato her hands touched the man's hand. She blushed and said sorry once more getting up. Sakura was about to leave when she heard the man call out to her.

"Excuse me, miss." Sakura turned back and looked at the man. Sakura heart almost stopped when she saw him. The man had jet black hair in the coolest hair style she ever saw. His eyes were darker than the dark sky its self.

"Yes?" Sakura replied with a blush.

Despite how grogous the girl was to Sasuke he needed to focus why he was in town for. For the most part he was happy because nobody reconized him.

"Have you seen a man with a black mask and some sort of an eye patch that covers one of his eyes?" Sasuke asked her. "Here's a drawing of what we think he looks like." Sasuke showed her.

"Ah! That's Kakashi-senpai!" Sakura said quickly with a smile.

"Good. Miss, can you show me where he lives?" Sasuke asked.

"Sure, but what do you need to ask Kakashi-senpai?" Sakura asked as she lead the way.

"Just need to ask him some few questions." Sasuke replied trufully. When they arrived there Sakura saw Kakashi's neighbor out playing with their son.

"Good afternoon, Asuma-san and Kurenai-san." Sakura greeted with a bow.

"Ah, good afternoon to you too, Sakura-chan." Kurenai greeted back.

"What brings you here today, Sakura?" Asuma asked. Sasuke stayed quiet behind Sakura.

"Is Kakashi-senpai home?" Sakura asked happily. Kurenai picked up her son and looked at Sakura.

"Kakashi? He should we haven't seen him out side today at all." Kurenai replied.

"Oh, really? Thank you then." Sakura bowed and made her way to Kakashi's house.

Knock. Knock.
