Someone Worth Fighting For

'Kyuubi' 'thoughts' "speech"

Author's notes: I have to say I was not expecting this fic to start out with the bang that it did. Unlike my other story War Against the Leaf, oh well, just as people said they wanted more, so here it is.

Chapter 2: Why I Came Back

The doctor in the garden room had quite a shock when he saw one of the bodies started to breath. The doctor rushed over and lifted the blanket covering the body's face. The blonde started to cough when the blanket was lifted.

"Oh my God!" exclaimed the doctor in surprise as she stepped back, she ran over to the phone on the desk and dialed a number and picked up the receiver, "We have a live one down here."

"Where am I?" Naruto asked confused everything was blurry. The doctor came back and checked Naruto's heart beat. Then two more doctors came in through the double doors. They were all talking, Naruto could tell; but he couldn't understand what they were saying.

"Get him into one of the rooms upstairs," ordered one of the doctors. Then the gurney Naruto was laying on began to move.

"What's going on?" Naruto asked, but nobody was listening.

'I saved you kit,' came Kyuubi's familiar voice.

'Not now Kyuubi, I'm trying to figure out what is going on,' groaned Naruto to Kyuubi.

'I swear you are so dense sometimes,' Kyuubi sighed, 'I saved you, because you haven't carried on your bloodline, my bloodline,'

'Not with that bloodline shit again,' Naruto whinnied, 'Listen I won't let you treat Sakura like some object, I love her and I will swear to protect her from you, and you know that you would hold me to my word.'

'Fine, but I have a better idea, I promise to respect her and be patient if you promise to have her bear at least one child!' Kyuubi bargained.

'I can't promise you anything, it's her choice if she wants to bear my child,' Naruto thought.

'Alright, at least try!' Kyuubi said trying not to get angry. After that Kyuubi left and Naruto realized he still didn't know where he was. But he was so tired, he fell asleep.

Sakura had hidden herself up in one of the trees in the forest, she was crying. She was trying to get a hold of herself. It was too hard to imagine Naruto dead; it was also hard to imagine that it had been less than 36 hours since the two of them had confessed of their feeling toward each other and made love. It was unbearable.

"Sakura?" came Lee's familiar voice, "Sakura, where are you?"

Sakura didn't want to talk to any one, she wanted to be alone, she then heard Kakashi's voice but she wasn't focusing on what they were saying.

"Sakura?" came Kakashi's voice came from behind Sakura.

"What is it you want?" Sakura asked not looking at her teacher.

"Why don't you tell me what's wrong?" Kakashi asked; Sakura eyed him suspiciously.

"Why?" Sakura asked.

"Well, it's not a good idea to keep things like this bottled up, it's unhealthy," Kakashi said with comforting tone.

"It's just, how Sasuke reacted to Naruto's death upsetted me," Sakura said, she was still mad at him about that.

"Everyone reacts a different way towards death, maybe that's how Sasuke handles death," said Kakashi rubbing his chin, "You shouldn't be so harsh on him."

"I don't know if I can do that," said Sakura folding her arms.

"You loved him didn't you?" Kakashi asked quietly.

"What?" Sakura asked.

"You were in love with Naruto, weren't you?" Kakashi asked again.

"…,"

"Sakura," said Kakashi, "please answer me."

"Yes, we were in love with each other," Sakura answered. At that moment a hawk flew over head, Kakashi gave it a strange look.

"I have to go, but let's continue this conversation next time," said Kakashi and he disappeared in a puff of smoke.

Naruto woke up in the hospital, it was dark outside, and he had lost all orientation of time.

"Ow, my head hurts," groaned Naruto clutching his forehead and sitting up. He looked around and his vision was clear. The room was empty.

'Where's Sakura?!' thought Naruto and panicked, he got up and made his way to the door. His wounds were healed and he felt clear headed.

"What do you think you're doing?" asked a doctor as Naruto stepped out in the hall, "You need to get back in bead!"

"Listen I'll go back if you tell me where Sakura is," said Naruto looking the doctor in the eye.

"If you go back; I'll figure out where she is, now go!" said the doctor pointing to the door. Naruto did as he was told and went back into his room, but he had too much energy to lie down, so he paced in his room.

'I feel like an animal in here,' thought Naruto, pacing more restlessly.

'Now you know how I feel,' came Kyuubi's voice again.

'What do you want this time?' asked Naruto bitterly.

'I was bored, so I thought I'd drop by,' said Kyuubi slyly, 'you're so much fun to talk to.'

'I want to get out of this place!' thought Naruto finishing another lap around his room.

'Yes; so do I,' Kyuubi said lazily, 'it's not much fun being stuck inside a goody-two-shoe.'

'I'm not a goody-two-shoe!' thought Naruto angrily.

'Oh yes you are, out of your four years of being a ninja you've only killed one person,' smirked Kyuubi, 'I almost killed a whole nation.'

'Well you're a demon, I'm not,' thought Naruto.

'Still don't you think that's just a little pathetic,' said Kyuubi, he enjoyed picking on the boy.

'I don't take pride in the destruction I cause,' thought Naruto.

'You used to when you were younger,' said Kyuubi, 'Why don't you take pride in it now?'

'Those were just practical jokes; they didn't completely ruin peoples' lives!' Naruto shouted at Kyuubi; then it dawned on him.

'Yes, you're right, you probably killed a father, a husband, a brother, or son to some people, you should be ashamed of yourself!' said Kyuubi, he loved to torture Naruto like this. Naruto froze, Kyuubi was right, he felt sick with guilt.

'I'll just leave you, I've had all the fun I wanted,' the demon said and left.

'I hate you!' thought Naruto, but Kyuubi didn't answer. Kyuubi was used to that emotion, in fact he fed off of it.

"Well Naruto; you gave us quite a fright," said a doctor as he entered the room, "how are you feeling?"

"Better, when can I go?" asked Naruto; who had stopped pacing and faced the doctor.

"Well if you feel up to it, than you can leave to night," said the doctor looking at some paper work.

"I think I'll leave tonight," Said Naruto looking at the doctor.

"Alright your things are right there," said the doctor looking up from his paper work and pointing to a small bundle in a plastic bag labeled: Uzumaki Naruto, "You're free to go," and the doctor left the room.

Sakura was in her room sitting by her desk; she had written a note that was stained with tears, she got up and left her room leaving her note on the table.

The letter said:

To whom ever finds this,

My life is nothing without him. I feel like a walking corpse with him gone; empty, hollow, and alone. So good-bye to those that pretended they cared; because only he cared, and he's gone now. The only time I feel happiness was with him, so I'm going with him, and there's no going back.

Good-Bye,

Sakura
