Naruto's mind was blank. He had no idea what had just happened. He was so confused.

' Sakura-chan saved me . . '

' She loves me . . ? No way . . It can't be . . '

' What happened . . ? '

Narutos thoughts were interupted. He was returned to reality by the sound of running, the sound of footsteps getting closer. He moved his head to the right a bit and noticed his opponent was running towards them with a victory smirk on his face. Naruto quickly got up, holding Sakura in his arms gently. He managed to perform a handsign and not move Sakura.

' Kage-Bunshin No Jutsu! ' , said Naruto as 3 shadow clones appeared in front of him.

Two clones created Rasengans in their hands and ran towards their opponent. They both missed. His opponent grined sure of his victory when he felt a huge amount of chakra heading his way. He has a light blue shuriken just before it hit him. He was dead within seconds. Narutos clone disappeared.

Naruto was holding Sakura in his arms. Her body was covered in blood, covered with weapons. She wasn't moving.

' Why . . ? Why Sakura-chan? Damn it, you shouldn't have done it! Please . . Don't die on me . . ' , Naruto yelled out.
He suddenly heard an exposion, and was about to create shadow clones, when Kakashi appeared next to him.

' Sorry about that, i had to take care of one man. Is everything alr-? ' , Kakashi said, but stopped talking when he saw Sakura. Kakashis expression turned to confused, then sad and worried.

' She saved me . . She is like this because of me . . I can't watch her like this Kakashi-sensei . . I can't stand seeing her hurt . . She can't die! You hear me Sakura-chan? You can't die! ' , Naruto screamed out as tears started running down his cheeks onto Sakuras face.

Naruto felt dead . . Alone . . Broken . . But also, very, very angry . . The lines on his cheeks got darked, as his eyes started turning red. The Kyubi was taking over Narutos broken soul.

Kakashi noticed this, and places his hand on Narutos right shoulder, holding it tightly.

' Naruto, don't . . Calm down, for Sakura. This won't help her. We end this mission here and now, and we are going back immediately. ' , Kakashi said with hope that he convinced Naruto.

Naruto looked at Sakura again and calmed down. He nodded his head and both Kakashi and Naruto had disappeared.

A couple of hours later, they were in Konoha. Naruto was running fast towards Tsunade, praying that they are not late.

Tsunade was sitting at her desk, with her face leaned on her fists, bored. Her blonde hair was tied up as usual. It was a pretty boring day in Konoha. Even she, as the Hokage, didn't have any buissnes. She heard footsteps, and her light brown eyes widen when she saw Naruto burst inside her office. She looked at him, but then she froze in disbelief when she saw who Naruto was holding.

' Help her! Heal her! Do something! ' , Naruto yelled out trough tears.

'Tsunade got up immediately with a worried expression on her face. She took Sakura.

' We will be at the hospital ' , she said and disappeared with Sakura.

At the hospital, everyone was trying to help, to save Sakura. The medical staff took out all the weapons from Sakuras body, and moved aside as Tsunade walked up to the bed she was laying in. She knew how much blood Sakura had lost, and that there was a lot of damage. He placed her hands on Sakuras chest as green chakra appeared arouned them, starting the healing process. It lasted 3 hours. Tsunade has healed all of Sakuras wounds. Sakura was still unconscious, laying in her bed, due to blood loss. Tsunade pet Sakura gently, looking at her with eyes full of sadness and motherly love. She then walked out, closing the door behind her.

Naruto jumped up and ran towards Tsunade.
' How is she? Will she be alright? ' , Naruto asked.

' Be quiet, there are a lot of patients here. And she is still unconscious, i don't know when she will wake up. But i healed all of her wounds, so i assume she will be alright. ' , Tsunade replied noticing the relief in Narutos eyes.

' Thank you Granny-Tsunade. ' , Naruto said as he smiled slightly and walked passed by her, towards Sakuras room.
