Whoo!! I'm back; I bet you all thought I died! I still don't have a computer!

On to the story!

I don't own Naruto.

Kabuto's heart began to pound as they neared the akatsuki hide out. 'I hope you're okay.' Kabuto thought to himself and glanced toward the opening in the trees. Jiraiya smiled a little at the worried medic.

"Don't worry Kabuto. Orochimaru has always been a fighter. "The sannin murmured trying to comfort the medic. Kabuto managed a small smiled. Tsunadae gently took Kabuto's and smiled at him a little.

'We need to decide who is going to go and find Orochimaru." Tsunadae murmured. Kabuto blinked slightly.

"I'll go." Kabuto whispered looking up a little and smiled to reassure the others that he would be okay. Tsunadae gently squeezed Kabuto's hand and nodded.

'Alright you can go. But be careful and don't get caught." Tsunadae replied as Kabuto ran towards the entrance of the building. Kabuto used a jutsu to make himself invisible and carefully slipped past one of the akatsuki and he ran all the way towards the holding cells. Kabuto peeked into every cell that he past until he hit the end cell where Orochimaru was laying lifelessly on the bed. Kabuto managed to slide between the bars and into the cell.

Kabuto moved carefully up to the bed and sat on the edge of it. Kabuto's eyes welled up with tears as he saw all of the injuries on the sannin's beautiful pale skin. Orochimaru was bleeding almost everywhere and it looked like some of the sannin's bones were broken and that he was badly malnourished. Kabuto placed a gentle hand on the sannin's forehead and jerked back at the high fever Orochimaru had.

Orochimaru whimpered in pain when Kabuto gently lifted him of the bed.

"It's okay. It's just me." Kabuto whispered using the jutsu to conceal the sannin as well. Kabuto bent the bars over the window and slid out of the window still clutching the sannin to his chest. Kabuto ran towards the palace where he had last saw the others and burst thought the trees and into the midst of the others.

Tsunadae and the others gasped at how badly treated the sannin had been. Jiraiya came over to Kabuto's side and gently took Orochimaru into his arms. Without warning Orochimaru began to cough up blood. Jiraiya looking panicked looked towards Tsunadae.

Tsunadae came over and probed Orochimaru's body with her chakra, and looked up horrified.

"He's dieing. "she whispered as Kabuto burst into tears.
