CHAPTER 4 ~ Living Nightmare ~
When Sasuke woke up he was in a hospital bed. He looked over expecting to see Sakura, but she wasn't there.
"Wait, what happened? I remember now...SAKURA!" Sasuke quickly sprang out of bed but found he was in a lot of pain.
"Hold it, Sasuke. You're still in pretty bad shape after releasing your seal again. You're lucky you're not dead," Kakashi warned him.
"Where's Sakura? Is she okay?"
"..." Kakashi was silent.
"Tell me!"
"She's alive...but she was seriously wounded. She's still in very serious condition. Also, thanks for asking how Naruto and I are doing. You're so considerate." Kakashi smiled.
"Sorry. Are you guys okay?"
"Sure, just a few broken bones and some cuts and bruises."
"Can I see her?" Sasuke questioned.
"I guess, she's in the next room. If you want I can get you moved to her room so that you can stay with her."
"Really? That would be great. Thanks."
Once Sasuke had gotten moved to Sakura's room, he laid eyes on her for the first time since that dreadful day. She was peacefully asleep, but she looked pretty beat up. Then Sasuke noticed the bandages over her eyes.
"What's wrong with her eyes?"
"...There not sure, but the doctors think that the jutsu Itachi used damaged them...They're not sure if she'll ever see again." Kakashi then turned around and walked out the door closing it behind him.
"DAMMIT! This is all my fault! If only..." Then, Sasuke actually began to cry.
Sakura slowly woke to the sound of crying.
"Who's there?"
Sasuke reached for her hand.
"It's me...Sasuke."
"Sasuke-kun? ... Sasuke-kun! Are you okay?"
"I'm fine. How about you?"
"I think I'm okay. The doctors said that I have to stay for another week, but I'll be fine." Sakura then reached over her head and took of the bandage that was covering her eyes.
Sasuke tried not the show any doubt of her last couple words by saying in a completely fake tone, "That's great to hear!"
"Sasuke?"
"Yeah?"
"What's wrong? I can hear it in your voice. There's something you're not telling me. Why won't anyone tell me the truth? I knew the doctors were keeping something form me! What is it? Tell me, Please! I'll find out eventually... but before that, can you turn on the lights? I can't see anything. It's too dark."
"Sakura..."Sasuke said with a huge sigh.
"Hai!"
"The lights are on."
