Jodea: The beginning of a new fic!

Sugar: Jodea, this is an angst story, try to gloom up a little.

Jodea: (Lip pouts) But it also romance. Romance good.

Sugar: You will be 16 in 19 days! Act your age.

Jodea: (Having tantrum on floor) NO! (Key-Lime walks in the room.)

Key-Lime: Why am I here? I thought I was only in YuGiOh! meets GAS?

Jodea: Now you are here also.

Key-Lime: Can I please go. (Sugar claws him and Jodea smashes him with a mallet.)

Sugar: Why is he here?

Jodea: (shrugs) I dun know. I needed some comic relief in the author's notes.

Sugar: I been reading the play you are writing with Mercedes, you need comic relief there! It is a comedy and you put suicide in it! [The play is Star Wars the Real World. Mercedes is about to kill Jodea for never finishing her new scene.]

Jodea: It got funnier. Remember the meeting of the Insane Sisters. [Insane Sisters is a chapter in the highly place group The Insane Intellectuals. Members are Mercedes (Kung-Fu Benevolio), Sara (Hippy Mercutio), and Jodea (Jedi Juliet).]

Sugar: This will not be an AU or have original characters (well a few but they are not going to be main) which she is famous for.

Jodea: DISCLAIMER: I do not own Naruto. I also do not own Star Wars or Romeo and Juliet. I am just a crazy fangirl. (Wiggles nose)

Sugar: Give me a break!( Jodea sticks tongue out at Sugar) WARNINGS: Yaoi, [this is Jodea we are talking about] OOC [she can never write in character], mention of eating disorders, attempted suicide, kidnaping, rape, and the crazy mind of the writing author.

Key-Lime: (Is now covered in bandages) This fic is her second Naruto. Her first was deleted by some unknown person.

Jodea: Hey wasn't your original name Unknown Person. (Chases Key-Lime around the room.)

Key-Lime: I swear I didn't do it! (Jodea is still chasing him around.)

Sugar: There will be no Sakura bashing. (Brother of Jodea, Chase, walks in the room.) Chase: (Looks at Jodea chasing Key-Lime and shakes head.) I don't even want to know what she is up to.

Sugar: On with the story.

Jodea: Hey that is my line.

Chapter 1: Finding Out

Naruto looked at himself in the mirror and sighed. He had again not spelt that night, deciding to stay up the whole night training. The bags under his eyes were betraying his late night training. He looked down at his body. He could see nearly all his ribs. He had taken to skipping meals also. He had barely had a eaten anything or spelt in weeks. Of course Master Iruka would take him out for ramen, but he would just throw it up as soon as he could. The seal on his stomach glowed dully. It seemed the fox demon inside him was doing his best to keep Naruto alive.

"Its not like anyone really cares what I do," said Naruto aloud to noone at all. "Noone cares about the stupid demon fox." That's not true said a voice inside his head. Master Iruka and Master Kakashi surely care. So does Sakura, in her own little way. He snorted at the voice in his head. It was getting pointless. He argued with himself everyday. Some people did care, or seemed to care, but too many villagers wanted him dead.

'Maybe I should due them all a favor and end it all,' he thought. 'I wonder if anyone would even come to my funeral.' He looked at clock on the wall. Time to go. He put on his shirt and jumpsuit, making sure it was really loose, so noone would notice how thin he was. He picked up his head band and tied it to his forehead on the way. He was in such a hurry he didn't even remember to put the eye cream under his eyes to hid his bags.

Naruto arrived at the usual meeting place a few minutes later the usual. Sakura smiled at him brightly. Sasuke didn't even acknowledge his presence on the bridge. Naruto had given up caring what Sasuke thought of him. But Sasuke would see after he beat him in a match.

"Mourning Sakura-chan!" screamed Naruto acting as happy as usual.

"Mourning Naruto. Why do you have such deep bags under your eyes?" asked Sakura curiously. She was worried about Naruto. He seemed to be getting a little more withdrawn from them every day. And now his face looked sullen and thin with deep blue bags under his now dull blue eyes.

'Damn!' thought Naruto, 'I forgot the concealer.'
"What dead-last are you so stupid you are forgetting to sleep?" said Sasuke in his normal monotone voice. He didn't want to voice it, but he too was also starting to get worried about Naruto.
"Shut up Sasuke!" yelled Naruto, "I just was up training last night. No big deal."

"You wouldn't look like this after only one night," said Sakura. She had walked closer to Naruto and was examining his face. He backed away. He didn't want Sakura getting too close. She might start to notice his cloths were more baggy then usual. He was saved by Kakashi arriving.

Kaskashi was shocked. Normally Naruto and Sakura would be on his case about being late. Today Sakura seemed to focus on Naruto to notice he was there. Naruto noticed he was there but was too busy trying to escape Sakura. Kakashi had noticed that Naruto was not his normal self these days. He planned to talk about it with him soon. Maybe ask Iruka to help him confront him. Sasuke had his eyes closed in light meditation.

"Well," he began, finally catching the attention of Sakura, " We are going to be sparing each other. Naruto and Sasuke, you start. No weapons."

"Now is mine time to shine!" said Naruto brightly.

"In your dreams dobe," said Sasuke. Naruto just glared at him. They got in place opposite of each other.

"Begin!" said Kakashi. Naruto luged at Sasuke, but before he was half way close he collapsed on the ground. Sasuke who was preparing to dodge stop short and looked at his fallen team mate.

"Naruto!" screamed Sakura. She ran to him. "Come on, wake up! Please wake up Naruto!" She was crying and softly slapping Naruto's cheek. Kakashi came over and looked at him and shook his head. He lifted Naruto off the ground and noticed how light he was. He was likely less the 40 pounds!

"Training is over for today. We are going to the hospital," With that he ran down the hill, followed closely by Sakura and Sasuke.

@~~`~,~~*~~,~`~~@

"Master Kakashi?" asked a young nurse stepping out of the room Naruto is in.

"Is he going to be alright?" asked Sakura. She had been crying the entire time the were there. She was the most emotional of the group.

"We don't know sweety," said the nurse sadly, "Naruto is very sick. It seems he is anorexic and bulimic He only weighs about 40 pounds. Also he hasn't been getting any rest and is straining his body well past his breaking point. It is a wonder he is still alive.

Sakura gasped. How could they not have noticed this? Yes they all noticed him slipping away, but hadn't noticed he was getting sick.

"When well he be able to be released?" asked Kakashi.

"In a week or so," said the nurse, "but he will need to have someone stay with him to make certain he eats and sleeps. If not I am afraid we cannot allow him to leave the hospital."

"I will stay with him," said Sasuke without even thinking. The nurse smiled.

"Can we see him now?" asked Sakura.

"Yes but he is a sleep and will be for awhile. It will be good for him to have friends at this time," said the nurse as she lead him into the room Naruto was staying in.

TBC

Jodea: Poor Naruto! Why must I make him suffer so?

Chase: Sometimes I worry about you.

Key-Lime: ( is laughing. He has found Jodea's and Chase's birth certificate.) Chase Sundance Moondreamer and Jodea Ever Seacreast Moondreamer. Hahahahahahaha. You have such funny names. (Jodea and Chase look at him madly. Jade, mother of Jodea and Chase, enters. She heard comment about names and is mad.)

Jade: I NAMED THEM! I LIKE THOSE NAMES!( Jade finds her steal fan and chases Key-Lime all over the room. Chase grows bored and leaves.)

Jodea: Please read and review. Flamers will be given the same fate as Key- Lime.

Key-Lime: HELP ME! (Is about to be killed by Jade.)

Sugar: More blood shed. And we just replaced the carpet.
