Chapter 8: Ino
Sakura sat there on the cold stony floor, her eyes filled with inexpressible horror. She didn't dare to move, she just sat not even blinking. It seemed that many hours have passed until she finally started breathing again. Her heart was acing and the horrific words repeating them self in her mind again and again not giving her any peace. "Let the game begin…" It made her even more scared then she was a few minutes ago. The end was coming and she knew it. Just remembering the dead eyes of the thing, made her heart beat so fast. Cold tears started stinging her innocent, green eyes and silently rolling down her pink cheeks.
"What am I going to do now?" Sakura asked herself, shaking. The only way out of this nightmare was the door, but it was locked. Maybe a window? No, she can't just run like this! What about Naruto? What about Ino? What about Gaara?... No, she had to find them first. She just had to! Trying to stand on her feet Sakura clunched her side. The pain was horrible and unbelievable sharp but she tried again. Biting her perfect, lower lip she tried to surpass the scream. And after a few seconds she was on her feet again. Looking around, Sakura spotted no one in the dark and started moving slowly to the closest door, trying to make as less sound as possible. Another meeting with the fish guy wasn't necessary now. Opening the door, Sakura heard a faint sound of whispers and looked inside a little afraid of what could be waiting for her next.
"The ghosts don't exist… The ghosts don't…." She repeated in her mind, walking in to the tunnel. Her eyes wide opened, for anything unordinary.
"The only way to get out, is to believe…" Inner replied, surprising herself.
"What?" Sakura stopped and was concentrating on the old wooden door, that looked locked.
"Don't ask me!" Inner defended herself. Sakura blinked and was about to open the door, but stopped instantly. Faint sounds came from the door, it sounded like a soft melody. Coming closer she was almost hypnotized by it. Slowly the door opened and unwillingly Sakura was pushed in to the dark. The singing voices were getting louder, from whispers to blood freezing screams. It was so unbelievably cold, that Sakura saw her breath. Taking another look, Sakura's heart started to race at the black shadows. The voices were getting closer, screaming with pain. Faint sounds of footsteps were heard. Panic took over her and without a second thought she started running through the erroneous tunnels. Never looking back, she ran turning many times. It started to look more like a maze after a vile. Soon her muscles failed Sakura. The pain was too much. Trying to make herself not to stop, and go faster Sakura didn't see the body on the ground and tripped falling on the ground.
Taking a few minutes to recover from the painful fall, she dizzily looked at the ground. Her eyes getting wide when she realized it was a person. Silently pleading for a miracle she looked at the torn body. It was all bloody and seemed to be a girl. Sakura hopes crushed in to the smallest peaces, when her gaze landed on the blonde long, now a little bloody hair. Silent tears started purring from her eyes, bluring everything. Touching the girls shoulders gently Sakura hugged her lifeless body.
"Ino…" She muttered threw hysterical tears. "I'm sorry…" She whispered now louder. Sakura cried so hard that she didn't fell anything but the sore pain in her chest. It hurt much more, then her wounds. It was all her fault! It was always her fault! Looking at her friends face again, she felt something rap around her waist and pull her away from her friend. Her scream was silenced with a palm on her mouth. Her tears stopped now and were replaced with huge fear for her life and wonder what could happen to her.
"Sh…" She heard a familiar voice and stopped struggling, the tears in her eyes again.
"Ino…" Sakura muttered in to his palm..
"Don't move" Gaara whispered seriously looking through the corner. Sakura's heart started racing when she heard footsteps coming from the dark. Not daring to breath, she watched the small man, coming to Ino's bloody body. His eyes were shinning whit something that Sakura couldn't understand.
"What a fine art you are…" He muttered caressing Ino's cheek. Sakura felt anger rising in her. But then happened the thing that Sakura didn't expected at all. Ino stiffened a bit and opened her eyes.
"Sakura…Kankuro?" She whispered silently, making the man chuckle.
"No my dear, their not here" He looked at her body, tracing his fingers through the blood. Ino started shaking visibly.
"What are you?" She asked choking on her words.
"I'm your only friend now" He smiled, his wounded face looking at Ino. "You should be happy, to become a fine puppet of mine" He chuckled lauder, shills ran down Sakura's neck. Her heart started acing again with guilt. She wanted to reach for her friend, help her. Do whatever what's possible now to save Ino from pain. But she couldn't. And she knew it… The tight grip on her waist reminded her that. The only way to survive this is to leave her friend behind. It was clear as glass now. The rule to survive. Sakura's eyes got all teary as she looked at Gaara, whose eyes were sad and filled with guilt the same as hers. Turning her gaze to the man, her eyes hardened to a glare. Screw those rules!
"Ino!" Sakura screamed before breaking out from Gaara's grasp, running to her friend and the deadly danger. No way to escape alive now.
"Shit!"
Poor Ino!
