Naruto woke with a fright when he heard the door to his cell fall open. The room had become colder and he tucked himself tighter into his knees. He dug his head deeper, his blond hair rising on the back of his neck as he heard footsteps approaching. He closed his eyes, preparing for someone to hurt him.
Nothing came except for the light touch of a hand against his shoulder and something warm wrapping around him.
A blanket? He opened his eyes to find a thick, white blanket wrapped around his shoulders, its bottom reaching the tip of the floor. He turned to quickly to look at whom had done this and saw the faint flash of a sword holster.
Sakura stared into the room in shock and rushed over to the blood splatter. It was bright still so it wasn't very old. She took off her glove and wiped it against the blood, collecting it as a sample.
Rushing to Tsunade she quickly came across Konohamaru who was casually strolling around the village, planning another prank. She stopped him in his tracks and grabbed hold of his shoulders. "Have you seen Naruto?"
He looked at her in confusion. "Heh? I haven't seen him since yesterday. What happened?"
She took off and yelled at him without looking back. "Spread the word to all the teams to search for Naruto!"
Konohamaru stared after her. "Heh?"
After a while of running Sakura had finally made it through the crowd of people preparing for the festival. She climbed the stairs to Tsunade's office and crashed through the doors. Sakura looked to Shizune immediately. "I need you to find out who's blood this is." She tossed the glove at Shizune who clumsily caught it.
She rushed out of the room, Tonton following along.
Tsunade looked at her in surprise as she rushed over to her desk. "What's the-"
"I can't find Naruto. I checked in his room but he's gone missing. It looks like someone had attacked him from the way his apartment looked. I found things destroyed and blood sprayed on his wall."
The Godaime's eyes widened. She stood from her seat and told Sakura to follow her as well. She was in a mad rush to see the results from the blood sample. They entered a room where several medic ninja were working on different cases.
Shizune stood in the right corner typing into her computer. She frowned and turned around. "There's no doubt about it. It's Naruto-kun's."
