Lee was running around the village, with his teammates following him, but he was faster than them so he had a fair distance in front of them. But once he heard the sound of a crash he stopped running.

"Huh?" The man in green spandex questioned. He ran towards the direction of the sound. "S-sakura-chan?!"

He saw Sakura crouched on the grass huddling herself into a ball sobbing. He ran over to her but refrained from touching her.

"Sakura-chan is something wrong?! Are you under attack?!" He kept blurting out questions and freaking out, not even noticing the destroyed bridge.

Finally Ten-ten and Neji caught up with Lee.

"Sakura are you ok?!" Ten-ten asked running over to her.

Neji took in the destruction. "What happened here?"

"Sakura-chan I will make everything ok, just entr-" Lee started pledging before getting knocked on the head by Ten-ten.

"Shut up Lee!" Ten-ten scolded then turned back to Sakura. "Hey Sakura what happened? Why are you so upset?"

Sakura sniffed then dried some of her tears, though more kept flowing out.

"Na-naruto…" She choked out. "Sas…ke…Kakashi...they're…hu-hurt." She continued her sobbing on Ten-ten's shoulder.

Ten-ten patted her head and allowed Sakura to continue crying. "There there just let it out."

"Your teammates are hurt?" Neji asked focusing on Sakura instead of the destroyed bridge. "Are they at the hospital?"

Lee plopped down next to Ten-ten. "I shall take you to see your teammates Sakura."

Ten-ten continued to rub circles on Sakura's back. "Yeah that's a good idea; let's go to the hospital, ok? You can see Sasuke, and your other teammates there, alright?"

She helped Sakura to her feet, still letting Sakura lean on her for support. They walked over to the hospital and headed towards Sasuke's room.

"Wait!" Sakura blurted out. "I...I can't let Sasuke s-see me…like this."

Ten-ten nodded in agreement smiling lightly because Sakura had stopped crying.

"You boys go ahead. I'm going to help Sakura fix herself up."

The two boys watched the girls leave, Ten-ten was pulling out some make up that she had hidden in one of her ninja packs. Neji sighed and Lee was smiling brightly, happy that Sakura was no longer crying.

They both entered Sasuke's room without knocking. Lee insisted on knocking but Neji just walked right into the room. The room was empty of visitors only Sasuke was there and he was lying on the bed facing away from them.

"Hello Sasuke how are you feeling?" Lee asked walking towards the end of the bed.

Sasuke spared him a glance before focusing out the window again. "Hn."

Neji scanned the room for a minute his arms folded in front of him.

"Pardon if I seem rude but what happened?" Lee asked politely.

Sasuke didn't answer he just kept staring out the window.

"Uh…" Lee began, trying to break the awkward silence.

"We found Sakura by the bridge where your team meets, it was destroyed and no doubt Sakura had destroyed it." Neji stated looking for a reaction, but none came. "You can't keep it from us Uchiha, what exactly happened to you and your fellow teammates?"

Sasuke turned and glared at Neji but before anything else could be done Sakura and Ten-ten walked in.

"Sasuke-kun!" Sakura smiled rushing over to him and pulling the chair over by him so that she could sit by him. "How are you feeling? Any better? Where's Iruka-sensei?"

She looked around the room to find that yes Iruka was not there. Lee moved over to stand next to Sakura while Neji and Ten-ten left the room.

"Now what?" Ten-ten asked.

"I'm going to find out what happened." Neji replied walking away.

Ten-ten chased after him, "I'll go find Iruka-sensei and see what he knows." She smiled then walked back the opposite direction.

Neji looked down each hall, using his Byakugan to stare into some of the rooms. Finally recognizing some chakra he knocked and after he was given permission, walked into the room.

"Ah Neji what can I do for you?" Iruka asked sitting next to Kakashi's bed.

Kakashi was asleep or still out from the drugs, whatever the case, he was out. He had bandages around his torso and back, but his face was turned away from Neji so he still couldn't see the man's facial features.

"Do you know what happened to all of them?"

He asked taking his eyes off Kakashi and focusing on Iruka. Iruka shook his head 'no' then sighed sadly.

"Naruto's in surgery right now, and" He didn't get to finish because Neji cut him off.

"Surgery?!" Neji yelled out then hushed himself and asked calmly. "Surgery? Why would he be in surgery, are his injuries that bad?"

Iruka again shook his head. "I wish I knew. I arrived back into the village and found out that Naruto, Sasuke and Kakashi were in the hospital. So I rushed over here."

Neji nodded taking another glance at Kakashi "I hope he heals fast."

Iruka sat stunned for a second before smiling and turning to look at Kakashi. "Yeah."

"I'm going to go check on Kakashi-sensei now, ok Sasuke?" Sakura said standing up smiling.

Sasuke again didn't answer, she dropped her smile then sighed and turned to leave with Lee following her close behind. Sasuke shifted in the bed so that he was lying on his back. He couldn't feel his backside, probable from the drugs used to numb the stitches.

The door opened again, Sasuke glared at the person for interrupting his alone time. Neji walked into the room and glared back at Sasuke.

"What happened?" He asked calmly taking the chair Sakura had sat on.

"Nothing that involves you, now get out!" Sasuke demanded, turning to glare at the ceiling.

Neji inhaled deeply, "You know Naruto's in his second surgery right now." He looked back at Sasuke, "What happened to him? It had to have been bad in order for him to have two surgeries and for them to have lost his pulse!"

Sasuke squeezed his eyes shut hoping to block out Neji. I know I know, now shut up and leave me alone!

"You did do something?!" Neji finally accused standing up and fisting his hands together. "What did you do?! All you ever do is hurt Naruto, either physically or verbally! What'd you do this time?!"

Neji kept on demanding answers; furious that the one he cared about was hurt and came so close to death.

Sasuke tried to drown Neji out. I know I know I know! Sasuke had to get Neji out of the room so call it cowardly but he pushed the nurses button.

Immediately a nurse ran into the room and saw Neji looking at Sasuke furiously; she ran over to Neji and put her hands on both of his shoulders.

"Sir you'll have to leave." She began pushing.

Neji glared at the nurse then back at Sasuke, he scowled then pushed the nurse off of him and walked out of the room. The nurse stood there then turned to Sasuke.

"Do you need anything Sasuke?" She asked politely.

"Leave." Sasuke mumbled out throwing his left arm over his eyes.

The nurse bowed her head then left the room. Once again the room was empty and silent.

"It's all my…fault." Sasuke repeated, while keeping his arm over his face.

Kit…hey kit.

K-kyuubi? Where, where are we?

Near the end of surgery, they're just finishing up.

Huh? How'd I… He silenced himself for a bit. Never mind.

Listen up all I need you to do kit is put yourself in a coma. Then during that time I'll save up my chakra and heal us up to be perfect. It'll take a couple weeks a month tops.

To exhausted to argue Naruto agreed. Ok.

"Hokage we have a problem!" A surgeon informed Tsunade.

"What?!" Tsunade barked out.

The man flinched. "He seems to be falling into a coma."

"What?!" Tsunade looked up at the screen it was true he was going into a self induced coma.

Iruka watched as Sakura left the room, saying she was going to go buy some flowers for Sasuke and Kakashi, since Naruto hadn't come out of surgery yet. Kakashi groaned slightly lazily opening one of his eyes.

"Ah Kakashi, the drugs wearing off?" Iruka asked.

"Slowly." Kakashi answered.

Iruka smiled at him taking in his real face blushing while doing so.

"D-do you want me to get a towel?" Kakashi looked at him puzzled then he smile and closed his eyes.

"I know we haven't had sex for awhile Iruka but I don't think I cou-"

"I wasn't talking about that!" Iruka rushed out blushing.

"What else would a towel be used for, other than covering a man's groin?" Kakashi asked with his eyes closed again probable exploring perverted land.

Iruka sighed still blushing. "Your face, I made sure Sakura didn't see it and that was hard because she really wanted to." He laughed, "I had to hold her down saying that it would make your condition worse if she kept causing a racket."

"She listened?" Kakashi asked watching Iruka walk into the bathroom connected to the room.

"Yeah." Iruka came back with some paper towel. "I think she's really shaken up over this. I mean it's not easy waking up and finding out your teammates and sensei have been hospitalized."

Kakashi put on an understanding face as Iruka made a makeshift mask with the towel.

Sakura walked back into Sasuke's room with a daffodil. She had already given one to Kakashi and was shocked to see her sensei covering his face with a towel. He must really not want anyone to see his face.

Sasuke was asleep, he looked so peaceful. He looks even more handsome. Sakura admired placing the daffodil on the little table.

She leaned over his face biting her lip, he was breathing regularly and his hair was thrown around a bit but it just made him look even more delectable. She inhaled softly then slowly pressed her lips against his. She was shocked when she felt a hand on the back of her head pulling her down for more. Sasuke's eyes opened locking with hers, she pulled away.

"Sa…S-sasuke-kun?! You're awake!" She exclaimed blushing madly.

"Yeah…ano Sakura? I've been thinking." He stated sitting up.

"Yes Sasuke-kun?" She asked folding her hands on her lap.

"You've always been here for me and I've caused you to worry so much." He looked up at her then back down to his hands. "And after what happened and realizing how easy it could be for one of us to die at any second. I've decided to tell the truth."

Sakura held her breath.

"I like you Sakura…a lot." He looked up with a serious face. Sakura was so happy she felt as if she could fly. "You might even call it love."

Correction now Sakura was sure that she could fly. "Oh Sasuke!" She threw her hands around his neck, he was knocked back a bit by how Sakura hung around his neck. "I love you too!" Ha! Take that Ino I knew he liked me more!
