Hi again peoples. It hasn't been that long since I last updated this story but It's like saying sorry for the lack of updating the most chapters. But let's move on from that. Sorry if this chapter might not be perfect (When are they ever are?) But I am watching a movie and totallly engrossed with it at the moment. Well anyway let's stop with the chit-chat and get on with the new chappie already! CHA!!!!!!
Disclaimer: Don't own it. Almost one-hundred percent sure that I will never own Kishimoto's awesomeness work. Now let's move on before I get even more depressed. :-(
Talking- "Talking"
Thoughts- 'Thoughts'
Kyuubi- 'Kyuubi'

A little recap shall we....................................................
Why would I do that? I only wanted to toy around a bit with my prey. Sasuke-kun will soon come to me on his own, seeking revenge from his brother. It is only a matter of time." Declared the sannin. Naruto was about to punch the daylights out of him, but before she could reach him, he disapeared from sight.
"Damn!!" Shouted out Naruto in frustration as she slammed her fist into the cold, hard ground. The earth cracked and shook beneath her as she continued to let out her frustration on the earth.
"Naruto?" Inquired a monotonous voice. Naruto halted her ministrations and looked up at the figure.
"Lee?" Asked Naruto as she stood up and dusted herself off and gazed at the spandex wearing guy.
--
"Lee is that you?" Asked Naruto as she gazed at the figure that was hidden in the tree's shadows. Her cerulean eyes full of tears ready to fall down her angelic, scarred face. Lee then stepped out of the shadows in all of his bowl cut, and spandex glory. (1)
"Yes. What has happened to your youthful teammates?" Asked Lee as he took a closer examination of the two injured people. Before Naruto could even put in a word into the conversation Lee's eyes looked like they were about to pop right out of their sockets, before rushing to his Sakura blossom's side trying to figure out what was wrong with his love.
"OH MY SWEET CHERRY BLOSSOM!!!!!! WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO YOU?!!!!!! I AM SORRY FOR NOT BEING THERE IN YOUR TIME OF NEED!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Cried the spandex-clad boy, whom was drowning a pool of his own tears. Naruto sweat dropped before trying to see for herself on what was exactly wrong with her teammate and friend. Naruto moved Sakura's beautiful pink hair out of the way and found two deep holes on the side of her neck. It was as if a snake had bitten her, which was true in a sort of weird, eerie way.
"It was my fault. I couldn't protect them." Cried the blonde-haired girl as she finally let the tears fall down her face slowly. Lee looked at her, his round eyes widening just a tad more than it already had.
"It is no one's fault Naruto. You did your best and that's all we could do." Cheered the one known as Rock Lee before he flashed his signature pose, trying to reassure his friend in any way. Naruto giggle before giving her friend, Lee a delicate smile. Lee almost blushed at that exact moment if it had not been for his undying love for his love, Sakura.
"Come on. We need to help them. You tend for Sakura all you can while I remove the poison from Sasuke." Declared Naruto before getting up and going to Sasuke's side, noticing that the Uchiha was sweating pretty badly.
"What is wrong with Sakura-chan though?" Proclaimed the loud bushy-browed shinobi. Naruto looked over to Lee and the now unconsious Sakura before replying to his question.
"The snake-teme got to her and gave her some curse mark. It's was supposed to be for Sasuke but Sakura got in the way and it was already too late. He said that it was irreversible and it is fatal. We just have to see if she can pull through." Informed the now suddenly silent blonde-haired girl. Lee looked so frightened that it wasn't even funny. Naruto noticed this and decided to continue. Lee nodded his head and tried to soothe the pained girl.
"Just be by her side. I'm sure she needs the comfort, even if she's not awake." Reassured Naruto while mixing all the herbs together to make a remedy for the poison that was running through Sasuke's veins. She lifted the Uchiha's head and opened his pale lips. Naruto then slowly made the Uchiha drink the awful tasting medicine before gently putting his head back down on the self-made pillow. A few minutes turned into an hour before Naruto decided to strike up a conversation with the elder guy.
"So Lee........." Started Naruto trying to grab the attention of one known as Rock Lee.
"Yeah?" Asked Lee in an unusually low and soft voice.
"Where are your other teammates? I mean do you know where they are?" Curiosuly inquired Naruto while staring at some birds that were hanging up in the trees.
"Yes. We had made an agreement that our youthful team would meet up again by the spot we had agreed to by sun down. I still have a few hours." Said Lee, muttering the last sentence, but Naruto managed to catch it.
"Oh, okay. You know that you're not forced to stay here. If you want to leave, then you can." Naruto said while watching Sasuke's now normal breathing. (Not erratic anymore.)
"NO! I cannot leave fellow leaf shinobi in their time of need. Besides I can't leave Sakura-chan. Not when she is in need of my help!" Exclaimed Lee while punching his fist up in the air for dramatic effect. Naruto giggled softly.
"ghmn...." Groaned a deep, husky voice. Wait Naruto knew this voice! It couldn't be.............. It was too soon for the medicine to work fully.
"Teme? That you?! Are you awake?!" Questioned Naruto as she got closer to the Uchiha. Then all of a sudden Sasuke snapped his eyelids open to reveal those endless deep coal eyes that were staring at one Naruto.
"Hn.......Dobe." Muttered Sasuke before going back to a deep slumber.
