Summary: everybody knows it by now, ne?
Authors Notes: That last chapter was pretty intense, but it looks like its
going to continue into chapter 7.
Sakura was struggling to escape her drug dealers grasp, but it was no use, his strength was overriding. Her arms were crossed above her head and pressed up against the brick wall behind her; he was holding both her arms down with one hand while the other one continued to fondle her. Sakura had become so weak, her mind and body were over exhausted from lack of sleep and her extensive meth use, she couldn't even fight back to protect herself. She hadn't felt so helpless in years. [My goal was to become strong and confident so I could protect the ones who are dear to me, I can't even protect myself anymore…help me] Sakura's cheeks were blemished with trembling tears as she sobbed for help, and for the lust hungry man to stop. She did what she could to avoid the mans lips but they came down upon hers with a hot, crushing force. The pastel haired chuunin whimpered and shut her eyes closed, stricken with a deep emotional pain. Her squirming only provoked the dark stranger "you like it when I do that, don't you bitch? You act like you don't want this, but you're wet like the cheap slut you are!" He grinned before devouring her mouth once again.
A pair of indigo eyes watched in horror and shock at the unfolding scene. "WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING TO SAKURA-CHAN!?" Naruto raged, his eyes narrowing in hate. The fox boy's fists were clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white. "You have 5 seconds to back off of her or I'll beat the living shit out of you!" he spat out a threat. Sakura's drug dealer payed little to no attention to the fuming blonde, he simply cocked his head to the side and glanced back at Naruto with evil eyes "Don't fuck with me boy…now let me have my fun with this trash" He turned back to Sakura, whos jade eyes were wide with fright "yamero…onegai" she whispered.
Naruto's blood boiled with fury [This asshole shouldn't have underestimated me] He inhaled a large breath and felt the fiery Chakra of the demon fox coursing through his veins. "Heh" a feral grin appeared on the blondes face as the powerful, crimson charka radiated from within him, it surrounded his body, spinning in rapid circles. Naruto crept up behind Sakura's molester, without making the faintest sound. When he was in arms reach of the man, he extended his hands with lightening speed and snatched the dealer's shoulders with overwhelming power. Naruto's mouth leaned down towards the man's left ear as he whispered "No, YOU don't fuck with ME…let go of Sakura-chan!" he growled before he ripped the sick bastard away from Sakura. The second Sakura was freed from the grasps of the dark man, she dropped to her knees clutching at her heart and bawling uncontrollably. The mere sound of Sakura's cries had angered Naruto even more; he couldn't bring himself to look at the wreck that his teammate had become for he feared that he would kill the man that he was holding in a vice-grip. "Never, EVER go near her or you'll have to deal with me again" Naruto's powerful voice boomed through out the alley. The intense Chakra that Naruto was emitting had clearly intimidated the other man because a flash of terror was noted in his eyes, he did what he could to fight back and free himself but it was no use, Naruto was a far stronger adversary.
With a low growl, Naruto focused all his Chakra to his palms, charging them up with intoxicating energy that was hot like fire. The Blonde's left hand grabbed the collar of the dealers jacket with a vigorous tug, slightly choking the man, and before he knew it Naruto's right fist came pounding into his stomach with such force that he got the wind knocked out of him completely. As he staggered over in pain, he felt a hand lace its way through his hair, grabbing hold of his dark strands with a sharp jerk. "Not so cocky now, are we?" Naruto stated as he kicked his knee up and shoved the mans face forcefully into it, instantly breaking his nose. The warm, wet and scarlet fluid came gushing down the dark males face, flowing freely from his nose. The drops of blood soon became more unmistakable as they were staining his clothes and the ground with burgundy splotches. Coming to the decision that a broken nose wasn't punishment enough, Naruto grabbed a hold of the guy's fists with such a forceful grip that a loud crunch was heard prior to all ten fingers were fractured. "Ahhhhhhhhhhh!" an agonizing scream was heard before Naruto then twisted the mans arms behind his back and slammed him up against the cold brick wall. "Consider yourself lucky I'm not going to kill you!" With that, the fox boy struck the man in the back of the head with a final blow of his fist, rendering him unconscious. The dealers body slumped over into a crumpled heap and Naruto's attention focused on the frightened young woman just a few feet away.
Breathing heavily, Naruto's clear blue eyes lost all feelings of hate, which were surpassed with those of worry and comfort. "Sakura-chan" he whispered as he walked over to his distressed friend. Her puffy, jade eyes shot up and met his "G-gom-menasi" she whimpered before the tears took over once again. Naruto's strong arms wrapped themselves around Sakura in a warm embrace and she found herself clutching at his clothes for dear life. "Iie, Sakura. There is no need to be sorry, lets get out of here" he spoke quietly before he gently picked the girl up to her feet. Staggering on wobbly legs, Sakura leaned against the grimy wall for support; she was still shaking from shock. Realizing this, Naruto took off his jacket and placed it gently around her shoulders. He grabbed her left arm and slung it around his shoulder while his right arm snaked around her all too thin waist. Naruto was worried by this, Ino was right; Sakura-chan had lost a lot of weight in such a short amount of time. She did in fact look horribly pale and exhausted. But it was her eyes that haunted him the most; they were so empty and sad. [What's going on with you Sakura-chan?] Naruto thought it was best to keep his questions to himself for the moment; he needed to get Sakura back to her home where it was safe.
Sasuke was panting heavily as beads of sweat trickled down his face. He put extra effort into training hard today, which usually meant he was upset or trying to get his mind off of something, or in this case, somebody. For the past few days all the dark haired Chuunin could do was think about Sakura and how much she had changed, how unhappy she had become, and how much he missed her beautiful grin. He smiled inwardly as he recalled the gorgeous blush that crept up onto her soft cheeks whenever he would talk to her or simply say her name. The memory itself made his heart flutter for just a second before Sasuke was fazed back into reality. [What is this feeling…why can't I stop thinking about her?] His brow furrowed in frustration. Letting out a sigh, he brought his muscular arm up to his face and wiped away the sweat from his forehead. He needed to get home and have a shower, he and Ino were supposed to go out for dinner later on in the evening.
