Sakura stood there with Sasuke, each waiting for Naruto and Kakashi. Silence fell both of them. Sasuke looking at Sakura time to time because of the awkward silence from her. Sakura, looking behind her every couple of min. afraid of what might happen to her. Both stood there. Waiting. Until Sakura finally broke the silence.
"Ne, Sasuke kun? Do you believe in ghosts?" Sakura asked the silent Uchiha.
Sasuke looked at her for a brief second then turned back to his sight ont he wall. "Why." He asked, but sounded more like a demand.
"No reason." Sakura said, both went back to silence.
For once, Sasuke actually said something without something talking to him first, "Sakura, what were you doing last night?"
Sakura glanced over to Sasuke who kept staring ahead of himself, "A walk, why?"
"Three in the morning?"
"I couldn't sleep."
Sasuke had enough of this he turned his head to Sakura and said, "Kakashi was the one that got there first, he said or assumed you were attacked."
"No seriously, I was just laying there."
"Then what about the Chakura?" Sasuke asked, he was really getting impatient.
"I didn't feel any, must've been your imagination."
"Was it my imagination that woke both me and Kakashi up?"
Sakura stiffened, this was not going good.
"Yeah, woke me up too!!!" Sakura and Sasuke both turned around to come face to face with the Ramen freak himself.
"Ohayo!!! Sakura chan!!!" Naruto yelled as he hugged Sakura, who pushed him off.
"Idiot, I had to drag you out of bed." Sasuke said over to Naruto.
"Hey! I got up didn't I?!"
"Only because Kakashi came over and said he'll promise you some ramen."
"Oh yeah, hey! He still needs to buy me some!!!" Naruto cried.
Sakura sweatdropped. Then she looked over in the trees.'But I need to tell someone..' Sakura thought.
About two hours later Kakashi finally showed up, then after the lecture from Naruto and Sakura he asigned the mission.
"Yosh[good], today we'll be finding this," Kakashi reached into his pocket and pulled out a herb. "We need to gather as many as we can, but, we can't. So, since there is so little of these around, we'll pack about five per person. Now go on you little ninja wanna be's" Kakashi motioned his team to leave. Then he glanced at Sakura. Picking up his Icha Icha Paradise, he dissapeared.
--Naruto---
"Is this it? No, is this it? No. It this it? No. Is this- eww, no that's not it." Naruto said as he kept looking through the weeds and such.
As the "peaceful" picking continued Naruto's ears perked up. Then he slammed hsi body onto the floor.'Someone's near! they must be plotting against the almighty Naruto!!' Naruto jumped up and charged at the person...who just tripped him.
"Idiot." Naruto heard the person say. Naruto glanced up.
"Sasuke you baka! Why'd you have to sneak up on me?!" Naruto yelled.
"...find any?" Sasuke asked Naruto.
"Of course I did!!!" Naruto yelled.
Silence fell upon the two until Naruto finally said, "Okay, I didn't"
Sasuke rolled his eyes and began to look for some herbs. Then Naruto asked, "Do you think somethings wrong with Sakura chan?"
Sasuke just shrugged and muttered an "Aa."
"I mean, she's always more happy. Do you think it has something to do with last night?"
"No duh."
"I mean, she really looked like she was in pain when she looked at us that night."
"...."
"So you think she's posessed?"
"...."
"Maybe a ghost has her!!! or worst, some weirdo drugged her!!!"
"Naruto, shut up and look for herbs." With that, Sasuke left, leaving Naruto to ponder in his thoughts.
"Or maybe she's gone mad! We need an excorists...or maybe..."
--Sakura---
Sakura stared up in the trees. Each had their own pattern, each with an individual hieght and length.
"There so high..." Sakura said. Feeling a bit curious, Sakura put some chakura in her feet and started to walk up the tree. She had already found her herbs because of her knowledge of where to find them. Nearing the first bracnch, Sakura stopped and sat on it. Though only the first branch it was very high up. If she fell...if she fell...
"If I were to fall.." Sakura said to herself.
'How would you land?'
Sakura turned around to the sound of the whispered voice, keeping off gaurd, Sakura lost her balance and fell...
--Kakashi---
"Hmm, Sasuke has three, Naruto has zero." Kakashi said as he inspected his students herbs. "All we need is Sakura."
"It's been half an hour though, I mean, shouldn't we look for her?" Naruto asked his sensei.
"Hmm, you two been gone for fifteen min. So it's only fair for Sakura to have time." Kakashi said rubbing his chin. "but, Sakura knows her herbs, she could find them easily."
"Kakahsi sensei!!! We should look for her!!" Naruto yelled.
After a ruffled sound of leaved Sasuke aproached the two ninjas, with Sakura in his arms. "I found her on the floor, with these." Sasuke said as he held out a bag.
Kakashi took the bag and his eyes widened. Naruto looked into the bag and said, "Hey! That's a lot of herbs! Sakura chan does know her plants!!"
Kakashi nodded then said, "True, but if you look closely, only five of them are the ones she needed, the other ten aren't from this country."
"How can you tell?"
Kakashi pulled out an herb. "This one has a light tone to it. While this one," Kakashi pulled out another herb, "Has a hint of red through it."
Naruto nodded his head, pretending to get it.
Sasuke felt a movement in his arms and looked down to Sakura. "Eh?" Sakura blushed as she realized she was in her crush's arms so she quickly jumped off, no matter how much she liked it. As she hti her foot to the floor though she instantly fell down.
"Sakura chan!" Naruto yelled.
Kakashi walked over to Sakura and inspected her. "You twisted you ankle, but from the way it's twisted it doesn't look like it's from a fall."
Sakura gritted her teeth and muttered, "Yeah, it must've had twisted when I was about to fall..."
"Kakashi sensei, the herbs.." Sasuke said pointing to the red tinted herbs.
"Could it be.." Kakashi mumbled. Then said out loud. "Sakura, how far were you up from the tree?"
"I was really high, I though I was going to die!!" Sakura cried.
"Why don't you show us where you fell." Kakashi requested.
Sakura nodded as Naruto helped Sakura up.
When they finally got to the tree Kakashi examined it throughly.
"I don't get why we have to do this Kakashi sensei, Sakura's fine so we don't have to.." Naruto said.
"Sakura, you climbed to the first branch right?" Kakashi asked.
"Hm? Yeah." Sakura said, on the verge on falling asleep.
"Hm, you really should've gotten more then a twisted ankle from that fall. So, concluding."
All three of his students listened for a response.
"Someone must've had saved Sakura."
"But who?" Sakura asked.
"Well, you see..."
Everyone stared at Kakashi then he said.
"I have no idea."
Everyone looked like they were about to kill Kakashi, mainly Sasuke and Naruto.
