A Mystery Of a Cherry Blossom

"This is bad" Daichi said.

"Really bad" Fumihiro added.

"Who hurt you Sakura?" By the time he said that the green boy collapsed in defeat.

"Answer me Sakura, Who. Hurt. You?"

"It was me"

"That guy's stupid" Fumihiro insulted.

"Hn, more stupid than you" Daichi said.

"You guys now is not the time" Akitsuma warned.

Suddenly blood rushed through Sakura's throat and felt the urge to cough.

'Of all times why now?'


[She Snapped]


In a flash of lighting Sasuke is behind the man almost breaking his arms.

Dark spots surrounded his body, sharingan activated with a smirk on his face.

"You seem to be proud of this arms?" He said griping the man's arms.

"ARGH" He screeched.

In a the back, there kneeled Sakura trying to hold back a cough.

"Just one cough Saku-chan" Akitsuma suggests.

"We're not sure of she could hold just 'one' cough Akitsuma" Daichi said firmly.

"What can we do?" Fumihiro said.

"Well we are the reason why she's like this, so if we free atleast one of her inner demons then she'll be fine" Akitsuma said.

"Are you crazy? If we free at least one of those creatures Sakura will lose control if that demon manage to control her" Daichi said.

"... No..." Sakura mumbled as she saw Sasuke.

Unexpectedly she ran up to him and pulled him between her arms.

"... don't..." She said.

The black spots a started going back to the curse mark on his neck.

Sasuke was stunned until he felt something wet coming from the back of his shirt.

He turns around and saw... blood.

"S-sakura?"

She started coughing and more blood came out.

"Saku-chan..."

"Saku please be alright"

"Make sure to not cough harder or you'll hurt your throat"

"O-Oi what the heck?"

"What happen to her?" The twin buns girl asked suddenly apearing to collect her teammate.

"What do you want?" Sasuke asked holding the girl.

"Get Lee and we'll leave" another guy apeared from also from earlier.

"Okay, Neji"

They didn't bother to look at them once the left.

"Sakura? What happened?"

"...nothing..."

"Sakura-"

"What happen to you back there? You nearly killed the guy, are you that heartless?"

She said it.

His eyes goes wide as soon as she said those words.

She never speak like that before.

She quickly covers her mouth with her hand and stands up.

"...sorry ...freaked out"

He was still stunned at what happen.

"Sakura..."

She looks at him with her stoic features.

"Don't tell Naruto... about this"

She reached out her hand.

Rock paper scissors.

Sasuke got rock.

And Sakura got paper.

"...don't... Tell Naruto... about me..." she said.

"Aah" he agreed.

With that they went back to their sleeping teammates under the tree.

"Saku-chan?" Akitsuma called.

'...hai?'

"Are you okay?" She asked.

'...fine'

"The way you snapped at him earlier..." Fumihiro said.

"You can't fully trust him you know, he already knows about your clan you can't tell him about your sickness too" Daichi said.

'... I wont..."
