Chapter Twenty One: When The Fire's Lightened
Sakura stood before her two comrades, her new blue eyes boring into theirs. She held the kunai by her sides as she approached them slowly.
Naruto's eyebrows furrowed, and his jaw clenched. "Orochimaru." He hissed. One of his important people, being used like this, and to fight him. He couldn't stand it. He looked over to Sasuke.
His head was cast down, and his eyes were completely focused down on the ground.
Naruto couldn't believe it. Of all the times for Sasuke to be out of his mind, he had to choose this moment.
When the Kyuubi boy was about to shout out how he would never betray his friends Sasuke beat him too it.
"Sakura." Sasuke said, loud and clear.
Sakura didn't even phase.
"Listen to me Sakura."
She continued with kunai in hand. She lunged forward.
Sasuke caught both her hands, and twisted her around so her back was forced into his chest.
"Sakura." The Uchiha leaned down to her ear. "You don't want to do this."
Sakura bit out, "You know nothing about me." Even though she was trying to be the top talker, both of the boys could see her eyes starting to shake a little, as if something was breaking. Naruto wanted to add in, while the chance seemed good.
"You're wrong Sakura! Sasuke and I know more than any other person on the planet!" Naruto declared shaking his fist. Not in an angry way, more of a persuasive way.
Both of them were desperate to bring their comrade out of the enemy's clutches.
Speaking of such, Orochimaru had suddenly grown quite fascinated with the scene. But he wasn't about to let all of his work go down the tubes.
"Sakura attack now! You know you want to." He ended with a smirk.
But Sakura didn't move.
Naruto asked, "Why are you so mad Sakura?"
She drooped her shoulders, and answered. "Because…I…I am just a burden to everyone I care about. I can't do anything to help, except get in the way. Even if we're in a death like situation, even like this, I'M WORTHLESS!" She screamed and it was then, and only then that they realized,
Sakura's eyes were normal.
As soon as he saw it, Naruto rushed over to hug her,
but someone beat him to it.
Sasuke, had spun her around slowly, as her head was drooping, and she bit down on her lip to hold back tears. He snaked his hands around her neck, and had stepped forward, to let her head rest upon his chest.
Naruto, smiled to himself, and ran to them and hugged the other side of her, so Sakura was in between her two closest friends.
"Sakura, you're strong." Naruto said with a grin. "In fact, you're one of the toughest kunoichi I know."
That made her breathe easier, but a sob or two escaped her lips.
Naruto looked up at Sasuke, with a face that said, 'you do something. Your words are twice the meaning as mine.'
Naruto could have sworn he saw Sasuke's eyes soften for a moment as he looked down at the kunoichi. But just as soon as it came it left.
Sasuke put his hand under her chin, and tilted her head to make her see his eyes, to see the truth in his words. Even though he rarely lied about anything. He was usually a straight up guy.
"Sakura…" He started a little hoarse. What did you expect? He wasn't that good with words either.
"…When we all first met, I thought of you as an annoying, weak girl."
Sakura's eyes widened, and she squeezed her eyes shut as tears glistened in the corners. Naruto shot his head up at Sasuke, with a fire in his ocean eyes. 'If that's all he's gonna say, I'll kick his ass myself.'
"…But…"
Sakura's head almost snapped up a little too quickly.
"You have gotten stronger. And you've gone through moments, where critical decisions have been made. And some you gave sacrifices, some minor, some not. He took a moment, and held a strand of her hair, almost to prove a point. "But you have always left them with your head held high.
"I'm proud of you Sakura."
Naruto smiled at Sasuke's greatly put words. He was glad that the Uchiha finally did something with his words other than embarrass or humiliate someone.
Sakura's mouth hung open. Her eyes were wide, and the tears that had glistened were before, had appeared as if they were never there.
"S-sasuke..."
Suddenly her eyes went wide. She backed away and had to hold her head, as she backed up and away from the two young ninja.
"Sakura?!" They asked at once. They started to run up, when suddenly, they stopped and stared in awe.
Sakura had a ring of light appear around her, and her eyes went pure white. She lifted up into the air, and her eyes had beaming lights appear in both of them.
A bluish gray smoke looked as if it came up and off her skin, and faded away into oblivion.
She soon fell to the ground as soon as soon as the smoke thing faded. Her teammates were there to catch her when she fell. As always. They wouldn't have it any other way.
"Sakura opened her eyes, at them, and appeared exhausted, and her eyes had a questioning look.
"You did it Sakura!: Naruto yelled. And Sasuke smirked.
"Welcome back."
