Chapter Twelve

It was...

Gaara holding Temari's body. There was blood trickling down her mouth and blood around her sides. Her face was scratched and cuts were all over her arms and legs.

Sasuke's eyes widened. "Why?..." Gaara looked at Temari's body and back at Sauske.

"No, no! You'v got it all wrong! I didnt do anything."

Sasuke smirked. He placed Sakura down on the ground. He walked over to Gaara. "Who are the over 3 figures?" Sasuke asked. Gaara looked at them.

Naruto and Hinata came out. And a clone of Naruto. "Hey Sasuke. We were walking in the park and we saw Gaara running towards a body. We saw Temari lying on the ground, so we came and helped."

Sakura woke up and saw Hinata,Naruto,and Sasuke looking at Temari's body. "Sasuke! They are killers! Stop them!" Sasuke helped Sakura up. Naruto and Hinata were confused.

Sasuke explained to her the story. "Oh..." Sakura said blushing slightly.

Hinata,Naruto, and Sakura brought Temari to the hospital, while Sasuke and Gaara stayed at the park to see if they oculd find the person who hurt Temari.

They were walking in the trees, when a shuriken came flying at Gaara's face. Gaara turned around and lazily ducked.

Sasuke went to check out where the shuriken came from. No one was there. It was 10:20pm, sothey decided to go to the hostpital to see Temari.

She was lying on a bed and Sakura was sleeping on a chair next to her. Sasuke woke her up and asked ehr where Nartuo and Hinata went.

"I told them I would stay here, so they went home. Di you guys find the person who did this?" Gaara shook his head.

"Well, shes going to be okay." Sakura said trying to cheer Gaara up, even though he hardly smiles.

Gaara just nodded and sat down next to Sakura. "Thanks" he said. Sakura smiled and blushed a bit.

Sasuke was growing a bit jelouse. 'Back of Gaara. Wait, shes just trying to help him. But still, shes MY girlfriend. Think about Temari's health, not this. They are just friends. But shes MINE' inner Sasuke was arguing.

Suddenly not knowing why he did, he took Sakura's wrist and brought her to a corner. She was very confused.

Gaara stood up and whispered in Sasuke's ear. "Im not going for her you know. Im just thanking her. Shes JUST my friend. I know shes yours."

Sasuke blushed and let go of Sakura's wrist. Hiding his blush he walked out. "Im going to get some air" he said. Sakura looked at Gaara. He just shrugged. Once Sakura looked back at Temari, Gaara rolled his eyes and smirked.

Sasuke went out of the hospital. "I just need some air..." he sighed. He took a short walk. When he was walking near a fountain he heared crying from a bush.He went and pushed some leaves aside to see who was crying.

Lying on the ground was a five year old girl naked except a tattered brown cloth on her chest and another one like a skirt.

She was shivering. Her hair was dark brown and she was covered in dirt and blood. Sasuke was shocked to see so many people like this today."Let me pick you up and bring you into the hospital" Sasuke said. He bent down, and the gril looked straight into his eyes.

Her eyes looked like she was a happy girl, like Sakura, but now they were grey and sad. Tears poured down her face when she looked at Sasuke. "D..dont h..h..hurt m..me" she said.

Sasuke carefully picekd her up. "Dont worry. Im here to help" The girl snuggled in Sasuke's arm. Glad to be with someone that was warm.

Quickly Sasuke started walking to the hostpital. On his way, the girl sneezed. He stopped. He took off his jacket and out it around the girl. "T..thank y..you" the gril said.

"My name is Sasuke. Whats yours?" Sasuke asked. "M..my name i..is Takaya"

Once he got to the hospital, he saw Sakura waiting outside. She was shocked to see a little girl like this.

"Sasuke! What happened?" Sasuke replied, walking into the hospital and following was Sakura. "I dont know. We just have to get some help"

Sakura nodded. A nurse took Takaya into a room and Sasuke waited outside. "How is Temari?" he asked. "Shes awake now, and man she is angry at the guy that hurt her. His name was Anquio, and before she fell unconious, she kicked the guy in the place where it hurts." Sakura giggled.

The nurse came out. "You need to be a family member to come in. Are you her older brother?" Sasuke looked at Sakura. Sakura nodded. Sasuke said, "Yes, I am"

The nurse went to Takaya. "Your brother is here" she screamed. "No! Go away!" Sasuke came in.

She stopped screaming. "Oh..its you..." Sasuke sat down next to her. Sakura came in too. "This is Sakura my girlfriend. Whats wrong with your brother?" he said.

Takaya looked away. "He did this to me. He has anger problems. He were taking a walk, and he asked how my mom was doing. I told her that our parents got divorced, and that dad killed mom. He was angry. He took it out on me. I tried to run, to scream, but he just punched me. Finally he threw me into the bushes, and I was to weak to do aynthing but cry. But then you came. Thank you." Takaya said quietly.

Sakura started to cry. "Thats horrible!" Takaya still didnt look at them. She started to cry too. "And now, I have to go to an orphanage because my dad doesnt want me.."

Sasuke held Sakura in his arms while she cried. Saasuke was angry. He had a brother that had some sort of "anger problem" you could call it. More like power. "Your brother was wrong to let out the anger on you. Your dad is a baka for leaving you. I feel bad for your mom. Someone that loves you, and deserves you, will get you from the orphanage" Sasuke said. Sakura stopped crying.

"And we will visit you often" she said smiling. Takaya turned and looked at them. She smiled. "Thank you" and she fell off to sleep.

Sakrua smiled, and hugged Sasuke. "Its a good thing you found her Sasuke. Her brother could of found her and beaten her up again." Sasuke nodded.

It was 5:00am in the morning when Sasuke and Sakura woke up in the hospital. They went out and all of a sudden they heared Temari yelling, and she came running out with a knife.

"Where is Gaara! He said I looked skinny when I was uncounsious, but now that Im awake, Im as fat as Choji! BAKA! WHERE ARE YOU!" Gaara popped out of a tree upside down. "I might not kill you, but I can insult you" he said smirking. Temari ran after him.

"Not when Im donw with you!" she yelled. Sasuke and Sakura looked at each other. "Im so happy Gaara aint by brother..." Sakura said. Sasuke's eyebrow twiched. "Im glad Temari isnt my sister...lets get out of here..." Sasuke said. Sakura nodded.

A/N: how was it! i didnt know who the figures should be, so I just used Gaara...REVIEW PELASE:)
