Uchiha SanNin

Sasuke moaned softly as he slowly opened his eyes. He felt the dull ache in his neck, and grimaced. "What the hell happened lastnight..." He felt someone lying against him, and his back popped loudly as he tried to get up. He stopped, biting back a groan of pain, and looked around to get his bearings. he remembered waking up at like 2 or 3 in the morning, then nothngs else. he was in his study, and he looked down, seeing and feeling Sakura's pink hair against his leg. He let out a pent up sigh, and tried to move ever so slightly so he wouldn't disturb her. He barely moved, and she opened her eyes and looked up at him. "You weren't asleep were you Sakura...?" He asked, seeing the drowsiness in her eyes. She just smiled weakly, and sat up quickly. Before he knew what she was doing, she jerked his head down into her lap, and held him there. She looked at his neck, and froze when she saw the curse mark. it seemed to taunt her, and she felt the tears coming to her eyes. No, She thought. No, no, no, no, no, no...!

She was so focused on her denial that she failed to notice the tears that fell from her eyes and the persistant knocking on the door. She held Sasuke's face in her lap, not even noticing his persistant struggle to get loose. "Sakura--" he gasped, struggling to get out of her hold. Her brute strength was honestly too much for the Uchiha, and he tried to pull her arms away from his head. She just fisted her hands into his raven black hair, and as he pulled down, His hair followed. "Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!" He screamed at the needle like pain, as if she was ripping his scalp off. "God damnit Sakura--!!"

Before he could utter another word, the shouji door that led out front was kknocked in, and it fell to the ground with a loud banging sound. Sakura froze, and So did Sasuke, but he lifted his face just enough to look over her thigh out of the corner of his eye. and he wnet completely red when he saw who it was that stood there. (A/N Awwwwww It really blushes...? lmao...yay Sasuke-kun!! :D) Naruot, Lee, and Shikamaru stood there, eyes as big as plates, blushing, and jaws hanging open. "T-T-Teme...what the fuck are you two--??"

Shikimaru piped up. "...well, we heard voices...and...well we thought that you were hur--!?"

He suddenly wrenched away from Sakura, and yelled, "GETTHEFUCKOUTOFHERE!!"

Everyone left in a sudden rush, and succeeded in fruining the Shouji door and even the frame. Sasuke's face was still flaming red, as was his usually obsidian gaze. He turned to Sakura, her face equally red, and she looked away, embarrassed and ashamed of her tears. He sighed and looked her up and down. "Sakura..." She hesitantly looked up and into his now obsidian gaze, and flinched back suddenly. "Sa-Sakura...?" He leaned over to her and she straightened.

"Oh, Sasuke..." She suddenly threw herself into his arms, and she sobbed quietly. "Sasuke...promise...Promise me..." He didn't answer; he was clueless. He just held her in his arrms and stayed qiuet, letting her exhaust her emotions that she held in for so long.

Sakura sighed, stretching, ready and eager to start her morning rounds. She remembered that Sasuke was still sleeping in bed when she left, and she planned on giving him a good wake up call when she got back. She walked into the small break room that was beside the entrance to the hopsital, and sat down, looking at her list of patients. She yawned again, cursing Sasuke for not letting her sleep til the early morning hours. She took a small sip of the coffee that she held in her hand, and froze. She locked eyes with the one name that she hated. Karin. She sputtered into her coffee, and it went all over her face, and it spilled down the front of her uniform. She yelped loudly and threw the clothing off. "GODDAMNIT, YOU SONOFABITCH!!" She ranted until she saw some of her subordinates standing in the door, staring at her. She froze then, and smiled, her face turning red.

"Uh..." A young redhead stuttered. "Sakura-San...Are...Are you alright...?" She asked, and looked around, as if lookinf for someone else.

"Ehhhh...eheh..." Sakura just smiled, and threw her coffee in the trash. " Eh, Gomen Nai sai...I didn't mean to worry you, Ana-Chan..." She smiled again, and gathered her clipboard to her chest, and hurriedly made her way out of the room.

She walked to her first patient. And that was the one that she REALLY didn't want to show ANY type of hospitality to. But she had to. She paused at the door, and read the resst of the woman's profile. "She's stable...but...has a fifty-fifty chance of survival...damn it..." She swung the door open, qiuetly, and walked in, shutting it behind her. She looked over at the young women in the bed. It was a sad, yet great sight for Sakura. But on the other hand, she would NEVER wish this on anyone. She had a sudden flashback of Kabuto's hands wrapping around her waist and settling on her abdomen. He chanted the words softly, and she seemed to convulse, and he drooped her to the ground as she screamed, then moved no more.

Karin was hooked up to a heart monitor, and a breathing machine. She had an I.V hooked up to her arm, which drained fluids necessary for her bodily functions to continue. The redhead's thick glasses were sitting on the table next to her bed. As she walked over to the bed, she sighed, and put her hand on the woman's arm measuring her heart rate. "For some reason...I feel that I am going to regret this..."She made a handsign and slowly and firmly placed her hands on Karin's stomach.

45 minutes later--

"WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING IN MY ROOM!!" Karin yelled, "GET HER OUT OF HERE!! WHERES SASUKE-KUN, I WANT SASUKE!! WHAT THE HELL IS SHE DOING HERE!!" Sakura just stared at her, a shrewd and disgusted looked o her face. She turned to the assistant that had rushed in when the screaming started, her eye twitching. "You can have her..." She angrily walked out, and slammed the door, making Karin stop her screeching and the nurse jump out of her skin.

"great..." Sakura moaned, exhausted as hell. Threw her coffee stained coat down on the couch, and dropped her clipborad on the ground. "just great..." She walked into the room that she shared with Sasuke, and sat down on the bed, not even noticing that he was lying there. She heard a muffled "Oomph!!" and a string of ongoing and explicite cursing. She leaped up and off of the bed, and looked down to see that she sat on Sasuke's back.

"I'm sorry, Sasuke-Kun...I-I didn't see you..." She sat down as he moved over and sat up next to her.

He muttered something unintelligable, and she looked at him. "Sasuke-Kun...?" He drowsily looked up at her, and she laughed hysterically. His hiar was standing on end, not in its usual neat, chicken-butt style. His eyes were bloodshot, and he had a lind of drool that ran down is cheek and chin. He muttered again, and flopped back down on the bed, rolling over, his back facing her.

"Sasuke, wake up...Come and take a shower with me. Why didn't you go with Naruto and Shikimaru today? They came here to get you...They needed to talk to you." She whispered, as she leaned down next to his ear. He growled, and pulled her down onto his side.

"Sasuke!!" She pulled away, and he grabbed her as he turned over. He looked into her eyes, and frowned.

"What happened...Did something happen at the hospital?" She just clammed up, and looked away. "I thought so...bad day huh...?"

"Sasuke-kun..." She pulled away, and started to pull off her clothes, reaching for the towel that hung on its hanger by the bathroom door. He gave her a rare, curious look.

"Hn...?"

"I-It's Karin. She is still alive...and I have to enterrogate her tommorrow...I had to heal her today, becuase i was the only one able to do it...I really think that she was in league with Kabuto...but...what would they want with me? She wanted me dead, so she could get to you...but...Kabuto...?" He gave her a suspicious stare, as she turned to him and shook her head. "I don't get it..."

"Then don't worry about it. Kabuto is dead and that's all there is to it..." He stood up, tossing the blankets on the matress, and leaned against the bathroom door's frame when he walked over to it. He stifled a yawn and cleared his throat. "Just don't think about it...tell them tommorrow that you can't interrogate her...ask for someone else." She turned and looked into his obsidian black eyes.

"I'm the only one who can take her bullshit...so I have to..." Sasuke heaved a sigh, and muttered to himself as he disappeared from the doorway. She turned the shower on, and stepped in as she dropped the towel.

"Sasuke...wakey-wakey..." Sakura taunted the next morning. "You have a mission to go on, remember...?" She giggled as he mumbled incoherantly, and turned over on his stomach. She just sat on his back, straddling his hips, and smiled. "C'mon, Sasuke-kun...i wanna at least play alittle bit before I gotta go...and i won't see you at least for a week...Pleeeeee-ase...!?" His head came up, and he looked at her out of the corner of his eye. She smiled again at his bloodshot eye, and her growled.

"Sakura..." He rolled over onto his back, putting his hands on her hips. "You are SO ANNOYING..." She just leaned down and kissed him lightly, teasing him. "Mmmmn..." He ground out, and sat up. His hands framed her face, and held her to him as he deepened the kiss, and he slipped his tongue eagerly into her mouth. Her hand were all over his body, exploring every muscle, scar, and hard plane. then her hands fisted into his hair, as he pulled away from her face and lowered his lips to her breasts. "every time...I try to sleep..." He growled as he let go of her nipple, "YOU manage to get a rise out of me...annoying..." They both felt his length harden considerably against her, and Sakura felt him slowly enter her, and she moaned as he kissed her. He shoved her down onto his hardened member, helping her find a slow and torturous rythem. He kissed and bit her neck and breasts, making her writhe in his arms as she pushed herself against his hips, then groaned as he came inside her, reaching total bliss and relaxation.

(A/N O,0 ...wow...um that was...short...? sorry!! tired...)

Sakura frowned when she met Naruto at the small darkly lit room, just outside of the enterrigation room that she would be questioning Karin. Naruto saw the forlorn look on her face, and looked at her with a sympithizing stare. "You don't have to do this...I can get Shikamaru to do it instead...what's wrong, Sakura...bad night...? Or morning?"

"My morning was just fine, thankyou, Naruto..." She suddenly smiled at him, and he was completely creeped out.

Sasuke must've finally relented on his end of the deal...ACK!! the images in my head...He started to pull out his hair as he turned to walk with Sakura to the table. "She is being held in there, Sakura-Chan...We'll be out here if you need anything, okay?"

"I understand..." She replied, with a curt nod to Shikimaru, Lee, and Neji. They all stood at the window looking over at Sakura, and occasionally looking into the room, seeing Karin tied to and sitting down in the chair that was so graciously givin to her. Sakura sighed and entered the small, darkly lit room, and kept her head down, knowing that Karin was watching her. "Don't tell me...You're an ANBU too...? Hmmmmm What a busy girl you are, Sa-Ku-Ra..." Karin tuanted, and glared up at her. "It's a wonder why Sasuke chose you over me...you don't even have time to spend with him..."

Sakura ignored her, and put her pad of paper and pen down on the table in front of her, and walked over to the other side, in front of Karin, and sat on the edge. "All right now Karin...Would you like to make this easy and tell me WHY and WHERE you got that poison from? Or do you want to make this harder and more painful for yourself?" She paused to add the effect, and smiled sincerely, pulling her gloves tighter onto her hands as she raised her hands to her face for inspection. "Just tell me why you were working with Suigetsu and you'll get to see your team mates again before you're thrown in jail."

Karin glared at her, her red eyes glinting with a feral gleam as the light reflected off them. "Fuck you...I'm NOT saying shit til Sasuke-Kun gets here..."

"It's about time you got here, Uchiha-San, Shikamar greeted, with a lazy, bored tone in his voice. "Sasuke nodded in returrn, and met Neji's pale blue-ish off purple colored gaze.

"What's going on...? Did Sakura do something stupid...?" He asked, monotonously, as he walked over to the glass window. His eyes flashed dangerously when he saw the pink-haired kunooichi leaning over the Sound Nin, smiling evily, her chakra enfused hands healing the enemy's wounds.

"Well, other than using up her own chakra to get answers, no...the usage is waring her out. and we called on you, figuring that you would be able to get a better answer of of the idiot..." Naruto answered. "After all...You have the Sharingan..." He smiled, adding, "Plus, she's been bludgeoning this girl for at least two hours now..." Sasuke sighed, and walked toward the door, running a hand through his raven hair, and jerked the door open. He closed it behind him as he entered, and cleared his throat.

"Sakura. OUT." She looked at him with a defiant looked, and his eyes bore into her. "NOW." She growled and made a hasty exit, slamming the door behind her. He closed his eyes, hearing Karin's pleas for her release.

"Sasuke-Kun!! Please, get me out of here...I kow that you want me back...PLEASE SASUKE-KUN...I didn't do anything!!"

"Shutup." He spat out, sitting on the edge of the desk, as Sakura had done earlier. He closed his left eye, and his eyes went crimson red, as he looked down at her. The Tomoe in his eye started to spin and dance around, and she emmedietly fell into a trance like state, sand slumped against the back of the chair. "Why were you working with Kabuto...?"

"H-He said that Orochimaru needed her...He wanted me to help him with her capture...and gave me a small vial. he told me to only use a small drop, it was a very potent type of poison...I used the whole thing because she was worth more than me...even to O-Orochimaru..." She managed to stutter. " He told me that he would move out with the Sound Nin, when they infiltrated the Leaf Village...I was assigned to the task of hunting her down due to my abilities...and to incapacitate her... The kunai that he gave me to use was tagged, so when it was used, it would pinpoint him to our location..."

Sasuke angrily crossed his arms over his chest, grimacing. His wore his usual passive expression, and never broke his cold stare. "Why is Kabuto willing to expose himself then?"

"Orochimaru wants Sakura!! Her Medical Ninjutsu surpasses her sensei!! And Tsunade was one of the Sannin...Sakura has the capabilities to give him what he wants...he no longer wants you..." Sasuke stared into her eyes, and walked over to her as he pushed off of the desk. He poked her on the forehead, opening his right eye now, having both eyes narrowed on her face. He suddenly poked her in the forehead, and took a deep breath. Her memories hit him so suddenly that he wasn't prepared for it. He sorted through all of them, finding the one where she was going to attempt to steal his sweaty and shredded hakama from the fight with Diedera. He scowled, and went on, and found nothing. He released her, and glared at her as she was released from her trance.

"Sasuke--!" He cut her off, when he kicked the leg of her chair, and it sent the chair teetering on the hind legs, balancing perfectly for an instant, and then the chair flopped over, with her tied into it. her head smacked the ground, and Sasuke's Crimson stained eyes bore into her. "You're absolutely disgusting." He spat, and walked out, slamming the door behind him angrily. The others watched him, and Naruto cleared his throat.

"Take her back to her cell...We're finished here. Sakura, go home...We'll send a scout out to search for this bastard...he is somewhere around here...because we know that he isn't in the Sound..."

"Wha-What did you do to Sasuke-Kun!!" Sakura yelled, turning towards the supposed female Sound nin, taking in the skin that had melted from her face, revealing an evil, yellow, slitted eye. She still couldn't move all that well, and the Sound Nin began to fade out, melting into the tree branch at her feet. Sasuke grabbed at his neck and slouched over, screaming horribly, apparently in anexcruciating amount of pain. "Sasuke...!"

"What is this pain...!!" He slumped down to his hands and knees, and his forehead hit the tree branch, hard. "GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!"

"I simply gave him...a going away present..." The Sound Nin hissed, it's inhuman-like tongue flicking out of its mouth.

Sakura sank to her knees, beside the Uchiha, trying to figure out what was wrong. "Sasuke!! Please!! Hang in there...Please...!"

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!" He came up off the tree branch, and leaned over backwards, as if screaming at the heavens itself. "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!" Then he took her hand in his, squeezing it painfully tight as he screamed.

"SASUKE!!..." She looked around. "N-N-Naruto!! Sasuke's--Sasuke is--!" She looked up, spotting his limp form against the tree, a kunai sunk through his orange jumpsuit, pinning the blonde haired boy against it. "W-wha...I...what should I do...!!"

Sakura lurched up in the bed, and gasped for air. "Sasu--!" A hand suddenly slammed down on her mouth, silencing her scream, and she fought against the owner. "M-mmmph!!" She wiggled out of hthe person's grasp, and managed to grab the kunai that she had laying on the dresser. She pushed it against her assailants throat, and yelled again as her arms were shoved down.

"Shutup..." Sasuke whispered. "Someone is in here..." He silently got up off of her, and she hesitantly looke around. Sasuke made his way to the shouji door that led him to the den area, and he quietly opened it. Sakura stood up and foolowed close behind, silently gathering her lost wits, her fists clenched. He came around the corner and collided with someone, fell over backwards ontop of Sakura, and jumped back, holding his Khatana to someone's throat.

Naruto's voice suddenly broke the tense silence, "Teme...?! it's me, Dobe-I mean - Naruto! Don't stab me, please...someone was here, I swear!!" And Sasuke flipped the light, seeing the Dobe's face light up into a retarded smile. "YO!!" He waved happily to them, then was lying on the ground in the next instant, cursing the Uchiha's name. Sasuke was letting his own string of curses ring through the house, and Sakura let out a pent up breath. "You nearly fucking cracked my head, Dobe! Why in the fuck are you in MY HOUSE IN THE FIRST PLACE!!"

"SOMEONE WAS HERE TEME!! "

Naruto left later that morning, and Sasuke growled low as he literally fell into bed. "Now I would NOT be a happy person if you ran me clean through with that, Sakura." Sasuke muttered dryly, and Sakura's body just went limp as she layed beside him. "What the FUCK were you dreaming about..." He glared down at her face, and her eyes grew as big as plates as tears began spilling over her cheeks.

"It...it was Orochimaru...The time when we were in the Chunin Exams, and ...and...He appeared and bit you, giving you that curse mark...!!" He rolled off of her, and sat on the edge of the bed. His raven black hair fell over his forehead as hi rubbed his face with his hands, and she wiped away her tears. "Sasuke...I'm worried...what if...?!"

"It wasn't him," He muttered darkly, and she clammed up emmedietly. "if it was him...My mark would be burning...and I wouldn't be able to talk to you right now..." He mentally kicked himself for the lie he just spat out. His curse mark was burning with excruciating pain, enveloping his whole body. He was sweating profusely, and his eyes narrowed as he concentrated on suppressing it. He wouldn't turn around, for fear of her seeing it and freaking out.

Sakura sighed, and leaned against his back. "Sasuke...are you allright? You're all sweaty..." She felt him tense, and she didn't say anything else. Sasuke...She thought...why do you have to lie...?TO ME of all people...? Is this just his way...of dealing with his pain...? His choices?
