Where is my mind?

Bring Me To Life

.

Wake me up, wake me up inside. I can't wake up, wake me up inside. Save me, call my name and sing me from the dark. Wake me up, bid my blood to run. Can't wake up, before I come undone. Save me, save me from the nothing I've become.

'Bright… why is it bright?'

Groaning, Naruto blinked, bring his hands up to rub his eyes.

Or at least, trying to. He couldn't move his hands.

"…the hell?" he mumbled. Looking down he saw that he was strapped to his bed. "What the hell!?"

"It's for your own good,"

Naruto looked up, staring at Gaara. Gaara looked back at him sadly. "You had to be restrained."

Naruto struggled against the bonds, trying to pull himself free. The straps dug into his skin, holding him tight.

"Gaara!" he cried. "Wh-What the hell!?"

Gaara swept over to him, sitting on his bed. Reaching out he stoked the blonde's hair softly.

"It's ok, brother," he murmured. "I'm here…"

Naruto stared up at him, all emotion draining off his face. Gaara smiled down at him. Naruto's eyes remained emotionless. Gaara had done this. He had done something.

"I don't want you," Naruto said in a flat voice. "I want Sasuke."
Gaara's hand froze suddenly. His eyes became cold but his hand resumed it's stroking.

"Sasuke's not here," he said. "But I am, and that's what matters."

"I don't want you!" Naruto shouted. "I want Sasuke!"

Gaara rose, backing away from the angry blonde. Naruto thrashed against his restraints, screaming for the raven.

"Sasuke!"

Gaara growled lightly.

"Shut him up!" he hissed.

Right…

Are you sure?

"Now!" Gaara shrieked. In an instant, Kyuubi and Shukaku launched another mental attack on the blonde, silencing him.

Sasuke strode along the corridor towards Naruto's room, smiling lightly. He rounded the corner, expecting to be greeted enthusiastically by the bouncy and overly-green Rock Lee. He stopped suddenly when instead a large hulking orange-haired man was standing in front of Naruto's door. Sasuke frowned before moving forward anyway.

The orange-haired man looked up, and Sasuke noticed that he wasn't in the usual guard uniform, but an inpatient outfit, the name 'Juugo' stitched onto the top. His steps slowing, Sasuke watched him warily.

"What do you want?" he asked shortly. Sasuke frowned.

"I'm here to see patient Uzumaki," he said, looking at the door.

"You can't," Juugo said simply. Sasuke glared at him.

"Like hell I can't," he muttered. "Some stupid crazy isn't going to stop me."

Sasuke took a step forward, but before Juugo could react, footsteps sounded down the hall. Looking up, Sasuke stared at the blue-haired teen stomping down the hall.

"Juugo!" he shouted. "I got you lunch!"

The blue-haired man ignored Sasuke, running straight up to the inpatient. He flashed him a smile, showing sharp teeth before setting a tray down on the chair beside the door. Juugo acquired a light blush, and dropped his eyes to the side.

"Thanks Suigetsu…" he mumbled. Sasuke rolled his eyes.

"Oi," he growled. "Let me pass."

Suigetsu's eyes snapped to him instantly.

"What the hell do you want?" he demanded. Sasuke glared right back at him.

"I'm here to see patient Uzumaki," he snapped. "I have mandatory visits with him imposed by Sannin Tsunade herself."

"They've been cancelled," Suigetsu replied immediately. "Beat it."

"Not until I see him," Sasuke snarled. Juugo moved in between him and Suigetsu.

"If you don't leave now," the big teen mumbled. "We'll remove you by force."

Sasuke smirked, setting his feet into a more comfortable position.

"You can try," he replied. Juugo took a step forward.

"What's going on here!?"

Sasuke winced at the shrill voice that sounded behind him. Juugo flinched, backing away towards Suigetsu. Sasuke turned slowly, seeing a redhead girl, her hair long and straight on one side, short and messy on the other. She was wearing the uniform of a nurse; black glasses perched on her nose. Her eyes widened as she looked Sasuke over and a sickly sweet smile slipped onto her face.

"Hi there," she crooned, slipping closer to him, much to the raven's disgust. "My name's Karin, welcome to Hokage, what can I do for you today?"

Sasuke simply looked at her in disgust.

"He's here to see Naruto," Suigetsu snapped from behind Sasuke. Instantly, Karin's smile slid off her face.

"I'm afraid no one can see Naruto," she said flatly. Sasuke glared at her.

"I have mandatory visits," Sasuke growled.

"And I told you," Suigetsu muttered. "They've been cancelled."

Sasuke whirled to glare at him, but before he could a scream cut him off.

"I don't want you! I want Sasuke!"

Sasuke stared in horror at the door, trying to rush past Juugo to it. The tall teen caught him, throwing him back.

"Sasuke!"

Naruto continued to scream as Sasuke tried to get past Juugo. Suddenly, the blonde's screams stopped.

"No!" Sasuke cried. "Let me go, damn it!"
Juugo released the raven, standing in front of the door. Sasuke glared at the trio before turning on his heel and stalking off. He knew where he was going.

"So we're agreed?" Kakashi asked Tsunade cheerfully. The blonde woman smiled at him.

"Yes, yes we are," she said happily. "And may I say-"

"What the fuck!?"

Tsunade's eyes snapped to the door, her smile fading. Kakashi and Iruka turned, both frowning as Sasuke stalked in, his eyes livid as he glared at the blonde woman.

"Why the fuck can't I see him!?" he screamed. "What the fuck have you done!?"

Tsunade rose, anger and panic on her face.

"What the hell are you talking about?!" she demanded. "I haven't done anything!"

"Then why can't I see him!?" Sasuke shouted. Tsunade snapped.

"Sit down and shut up!" she yelled. Sasuke did, shocked. "Now, tell me what the hell you are taking about!?"

Sasuke explained in a low voice. With every word, Tsunade seemed to get more and more angry.

"You're sure it was Karin?" she demanded. Sasuke nodded. "And Suigetsu?"

Sasuke nodded. Tsunade looked over at Iruka.

"Those two are entirely Orochimaru's creatures," he informed her. She nodded.

"I know," she muttered. She snatched up the phone on her desk, hitting a button. "Shizune! Get me that no good snake bastard in here immediately!"

She slammed the phone down, dropping back into her chair.

"Excuse me," Kakashi murmured, slipping out the door before anyone could say anything. Iruka watched him go, shaking his head. He hurried over to sit next to Sasuke.

"Are you ok?" he asked in a concerned voice. Sasuke looked at him with dead eyes.

"What the fuck do you think?" he asked coldly. Iruka sat back, shaking his head.

The door behind Sasuke opened, but the raven didn't move. Tsunade's face grew darker as she glared at the new person.

"Orochimaru," she hissed.

"Tsunade," the cold voice replied. "To what do I owe the summons?"

"What the fuck have you done to Naruto!?" Tsunade shouted. A man entered Sasuke's view and he almost recoiled. The tall man had long black hair, pale pasty skin and glinting golden eyes.

"I have done nothing to Naruto," he said smoothly. "It's all in the interest of his health."

"Damn it, Orochimaru!" Tsunade screamed. "Give me a straight answer! On what authority did you end Sasuke's visits and bar all others?"

"On my own, as a senior doctor here," Orochimaru said mildly. "You can go to the board if you like, but that will take time, time you don't want to waste."

Tsunade froze, looking up at him.

"What have you done?" she whispered. Orochimaru smirked. "What the hell have you done!?"

"Nothing yet," he said simply.

"I want to see the dobe now," Sasuke interrupted in a snarl, rising. Orochimaru turned to him, a look of mild annoyance on his face. He froze once he saw Sasuke, eyes tracing his body. Sasuke glared at him.

"You must be Sasuke," Orochimaru purred, stepping closer. "Well… you're an… interesting one…"

"Fuck off," Sasuke hissed. "I want to see him."

"Orochimaru!" Tsunade snapped. "We're not done talking!"

"I think we are," Orochimaru drawled. "If you need me I'll be in my offi-"

"Leaving already?" a cool voice interrupted. "And here I thought you loved to drag things out…"

Orochimaru's already pale skin paled further. He turned slowly, eyes wide as he looked over the man in the door way. Sasuke looked over as well, smirking.

'First time in my life I've been happy to see my Aniki…'

Itachi strode into the room, moving to stand straight behind Sasuke. Itachi placed a hand on his younger brother's shoulder, glaring at the snake. Orochimaru took a step back.

"I-Itachi…" he stuttered. "What a-are you doing here!?"

"Well," Kakashi began cheerfully, striding in to stand beside Iruka. "You see, Sasuke has to visit Itachi regularly, and he was going to miss today's visit, so I brought Itachi to him."

"We'd like to see Naruto now," Itachi said calmly. Orochimaru glared at him.

"I'm afraid that's not possible," he began, drawing himself up. "You see-"

"I'm afraid that is possible," Itachi interrupted. "And it is going to happen. Now."

Orochimaru took another step back, nodding.

"Right…" he muttered. "Of course…"

Sasuke smirked at the pale man before stalking out of the office. Iruka hurried after him, followed by Kakashi and Tsunade. Itachi calmly stared at Orochimaru until the snake exited.

Sasuke stalked towards Naruto's door, eyes glinting evilly. Juugo looked up at the footsteps, a heavy blush on his face as he broke off his conversation with Suigetsu. Suigetsu glared over at the raven, annoyed at the interruption.

"What the fuck do you want?" he snapped.

"Suigetsu!" Tsunade boomed. "Is that how you're supposed to talk to visitors?"

Suigetsu paled, seeing Sasuke's entourage.

"Ts-Tsunade-sama!" he squeaked, shuffling behind Juugo. "I didn't- I uh, you see-"

"Move," she snapped. Suigetsu shook his head.

"I can't!" he said. "I've been told we-"

"Suigetsu," Orochimaru hissed, pushing past Iruka and Kakashi. "Let them in."

"Y-Yes, Orochimaru-sama," he muttered. He turned, opening the door.

"And take Juugo back to his room!" Tsunade snapped. Suigetsu nodded, grabbing the huge teen's hand and dragging him off down the corridor. Tsunade turned to Orochimaru, glaring.

"Juugo?" she asked. "Honestly?"

Orochimaru ignored her. Sasuke growled lightly.

"Right," the blonde muttered. She turned and stalked into the room, the others following.

Tsunade let out a gasp as she saw Naruto strapped to the bed, unconscious.

"Naruto!" she cried. Rushing in, she began to untie the restraints. Iruka hurried over to help while Sasuke stared at the blonde teen on the bed, shocked. Naruto's face was devoid of color, his eyes scrunched up.

Once Tsunade and Iruka got him free, the chesty blonde reached down to shake the other blonde lightly.

"Naruto," she murmured. "Naruto!"

Naruto's eyes opened slightly, revealing the blue orbs, hazy blue. Tsunade sighed in relief.

"Naruto," Iruka said with a smile. Naruto stared up at him, face blank. He looked from Tsunade to Iruka.

"Who are you?"
