The seal spread like fire over Sasuke's arms and legs. Where it fell on his hands, burned Sakura who couldn't help, but cry out in pain.
Inner Sakura; Oh shit oh shit I need to tap out!!
"Sasuke…" Sakura looked into his red eyes. Hey, the Disney way of emotionally touching an evil guy to come to his senses was worth a shot. She felt as if she were being drained of her energy there, losing all hope. She was going to die and no one was going to help her, they couldn't.
"Sakura!"
*WAM * she was detached from Sasuke's grip and fell back. For some strange reason she felt dizzy and couldn't see straight, but what she heard was, "Disqualification." At that she struggled to focus only to see Rock Lee strangling Sasuke.
"Eh?"
Inner Sakura; Oh gods, not that Rock Lee kid…
"NO!" Sakura shook her head. She would not be disqualified. Suddenly with full force she ran towards the 2 boys and threw Rock Lee off of Sasuke with all her might. This wasn't his fight. It was hers. What had her so enraged, she didn't know. Maybe she wasn't angry at Rock Lee or herself…but nothing held her back when she began to throw punches at Sasuke.
Punches. Punches wouldn't hold Sasuke back. He glared at the pink haired teammate. She didn't honestly think she could win. He went right for her, kicking her off of him. Sending her frail body across the arena. He didn't pay any mind to the shocked Rock Lee or to the Chuuin who had declared disqualification. He instead charged at Sakura, who guarded herself with only her arms, which couldn't block his lower hit.
"DISQUALIFICATION!" As if the examiner had snapped out of a trance he renounced his decision. At that Kakashi appeared standing calmly between them to keep the 2 apart.
Sasuke looked deeply into Sakura's eyes throw Kakashi's legs. His dark red eyes full of rage. Her eyes had never met such a hateful look and reacted with tears, but Sakura wouldn't let them fall. It was Sasuke…he couldn't hate her…she couldn't let him…
"Come on, lets go." Kakashi told them.
"This fight isn't over." Sasuke growled.
