A/N: So North Carolina has a habit of freaking out over any winter weather what so ever. Last week, it snowed two inches, and we were off school for a week. Granted, it didn't melt, but really? Two inches of snow? And naturally, being the persistently lazy person I am, I got no writing done. I sat inside and played minecraft like a loser.

It's snowing today, and school is canceled. Canceled. Really WCPSS? It hasn't even built up, it's just a dusting. My point is, I have none. No point, I just wanted to write an A/N.

WARNINGS: angsty Sasuke. The almost death of a beloved family pet. Kiba. Inappropriate language

DISCLAIMER: I don't own Naruto, but I do own a magnet that says "roses are red, pizza is too, I ordered a large, and none is for you." Im really proud of that magnet.

"W-wolves!" I stuttered, feeling my eyes go wide. Come to think of it, k do remember being attacked by wolves, but I passed out before I could fight them off. It was a miracle I as alive. It must be thanks to these guys.

The nodded. "We found you lying on the ground of the forest, a black fox fighting off the wolves. We shooed away the wolves and the fox led us here." Naruto explained, looking at me seriously.

WMy eyes widened so much they hurt, and I heard myself gasp. Chidori! Where was Chidori? Was he okay? "Where's Chidori" I demanded, looking at the two men in front of me angrily. They exchanged glances, before Kiba spoke up.

"We don't know what your talking about."

"The fox, you idiots where's the fox." I growled at them angrily. Chidori was very important to me, he had been my companion for most of the time I was living here, he stopped me from being as lonely. I can't bear to think of him being dead.

Naruto shifted awkwardly, "you see... the fox was injured really badly..." He looked down sadly, fiddling with the hem of his shirt.

Kiba took over the explanation. "He's sleeping now, he was injured pretty badly. His forearm is all scratched up, and his paws are missing a few claws. His back leg is broken and his stomach has bite marks and scratches all over it." He looked at me sadly, probably in response to my horrified face. "He's in stable condition, though, and he'll probably make it through."

"Probably!" I exclaimed, horrified. I felt my eyes begin to water.

Both men gasped, and judging by their expressions they were obviously at a loss as to what to do. "Hey" Naruto stated, sitting down next to me and placing a large hand comfortingly on my head. "You can always go see him, he's in the other... Ehrm... Room."

I tried to sit up, but immediately winced painfully as a sharp wave of pain slammed through my shoulder. I gasped in sheer pain, gritting my teeth and trying to bear it. The hand formerly resting in my hair slid down to rest on my back, and scooped me up bridal style. I squealed and tensed up, yelling in pain as the action jostled my wounds.

"Sorry" Naruto said, wincing sympathetically. He walked slowly, gliding over the floor in an attempt to not bother my wounds. And for the most part, it worked, except for that one time he slammed my head into the wall. That had hurt. Ouch.

When we finally got over to Chidori, Kiba was already there, a hand placed on his ribcage. I wriggled out of Naruto's grip, gritting my teeth together painfully as another shot of pain pierced my body. Naruto shouted something at me, but I ignored him, pushing Kiba aside, kneeling next to the still body of my best friend. I vaguely heard the two men behind me whispering hurriedly before awkward footsteps echoed throughout the cave. Because that's all it was without Chidori, a cave. Without the silent presence of Chidori, I wouldn't be here. I would have gone ran back to Madara's and my distant mother and brother with my tail tucked between my legs like the bitch I am.

Without Chidori comforting me whenever I got nightmares, or cuddling with me throughout the cold winter nights and harsh summer days, I may have died of hypothermia, or of heatstroke.

Without him hunting for me, or leading me back home when I tripped and fell that one time, I would have died. I owed my very life to that fox, without him I'd be dead, and without me, he'd be dead as well. We owed our lives to each other. I wouldn't know what to do without him.

I didn't even realize I was crying, until I felt a warm hand on my shoulder, and a calloused finger wipe away my tears. I leaded into him when he wrapped an arm around my shaking shoulders.

Eventually, I managed to calm down enough to look up. I tore myself away from where I was plastered against his side and looked up, wincing from the uncomfortable position my neck was in.

It was the blond one, Naruto. He was staring at me with concern evident in his eyes. "Hey" he started softly, smiling down at me. "You never told me your name."

I stared at him distrustfully, not sure what would happen to me if I told him my name. Would I end up in jail? Faking your own death wasn't a crime, but I'm sure multiple felonies were a result of my decision.

"Sasuke." I found myself saying without permission. My eyes widened in shock. Why did I say that? Why, I might have ruined everything!

"Sasuke, huh?" The golden haired male repeated. "Do you have a last name?"

"Uchiha." I found myself replying before thinking. Holy shit. I did it agin. What if he finds out? I'm ruined! Il be forced to go back THERE. No, I can't.

The mans eyes widened for a fraction of a second, before they returned to normal and a careful smile crossed his face. "Sasuke Uchiha, huh." He mused. "Cool name. So what are you doing all the way out here?"

I shrugged, looking at Chidori sadly. I almost wished I could tell him, but then he would tear me away from my life here. Maybe if I told him I ran away? No, that's too close to the truth.

"Oh come one, you have to have a reason." Naruto turned so he was sitting down, facing me. I turned as well, my legs crossed comfortably under my legs, mirroring his position.

I shook my head.

He stared at me, and I stared back at him, deadpan.

Kiba poked his head into the room. "We need to leave if we want to Chidori to a vet and you to a hospital."

Naruto stiffened across from me, and I looked at him curiously. "That's great and all, but there's a tiny problem. Were lost."

A/N: Done! Be sure to R&R!

By the way, I want another summary, but I suck at summaries, so can one of you readers help? I'll write a oneshot for whoever helps me the most.
