Chapter Three Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto; tell me something I don't know

Sasuke had been out for some time now, and Sakura really didn't know what to do. Finally she decided to use the last of her chakra and heal him… but it took a lot of it to do it. She closed her eyes and did the right hand movement, and focused all her chakra into her hands and placed her hands on his wound. And pressed really hard and cried out in slight pain.

"Holy shit, will he ever wake up?" she said drowsily, she looked at the rib and sighed, it was healing, slowly. She was loosing it. (I'm tempted to write the lyrics for that Eminem song, but I won't, Just Loose it. By the way, I love dissing MJ. IT'S So DAMN funny!) The wound was nearly healed, but she was loosing it still, he fluttered open his eyes and looked around and sat up, only to see a warn up girl without any chakra.

"Great, look what you've gotten me into Kakashi," he swore at his teacher. And picked the girl up and walked out and up the stairs, being careful to grab the Spell Scrolls on the way out.

Hinata was sitting on the floor next to the door o the kitchen, it was about midnight when Naruto came looking for Sasuke and heard crying sounds from the kitchen. He saw Hinata sitting behind the doors and crying into her hands.

"Hey," Naruto said quietly, Hinata quickly armed her self with a kunai and looked ta him.

"Oh, it's only you, Naruto. Sorry." And she placed the kunai back into her dress. Naruto walked slowly over to her and sat down beside her, she had already buried her head into her arms.

"Hinata, tell me… whats the matter, and why would a pretty and most likely smart girl like you be doing with a kunai like that?" he asked, Hinata started to cry all over again Naruto turned to her and stroked her hair.

Soon, Hinata was crying bitterly in Naruto's arms, and he never did mind. Hinata was crying like a little baby without milk, and, for Hinata, it was like… Naruto was the mother with the milk, the one to ease her pain, the one that seamed to be there forever, at least, Hinata hoped that.

"I can't tell you." Said Hinata after sometime in Naruto's arms, Naruto understood. He couldn't tell her why he worked for Kakashi anyways so, might as well keep it a secret.

"Hinata, why are you crying, please tell me." He asked sincerely. She sighed.

"Naruto, I can't, and I know you work for Kakashi so…" she bit her lip, waiting for his reaction. He just laughed.

"Hinata, you are smart, I can't believe it," he answered. Hinata was greatly relieved.

"Naruto, you make me very happy." She said,

"You make me happy too, Hinata." And he looked deep into her white orbs.

"Thank you Naruto." She whispered.

"Hey, no need to thank me. I'm alright." And Hinata cuddled deeper into his arms. Dreading if Sakura found out.

Sasuke kicked open the door to his room and threw her onto Naruto's bed and looked at Kakashi.

"Happy now old man?" asked Sasuke.

"Very." Sasuke rolled his eyes.

"Now, what did you do to her… knock her out…?" he asked examining her.

"No, I was wounded, and she healed me with her remaining chakra. She used basically most of it getting through a barrier to get this," he showed him the Spell Scroll.

"Interesting, very interesting… so she's a Bounty Hunter. Very interesting."

"A Bounty Hunter is supposed to be reckless, killing and a wanted criminal. From her attitude, she wasn't like that… she must be doing it for a reason… a very drastic reason… someone controlling her at the sake of something being lost to her… something very important." Sasuke was listening to his Sensei with great interest.

"Or maybe for revenge. It's a possibility." He questioned. Kakashi opened his eye.

"So, why would you think that?" he asked.

"When I found her, she was looking for these Spell Scrolls, as you can see. I would think she would be using them to either sink this ship with everyone on it. Or kill one person very painfully. What do you think, Kakashi?" asked Sasuke, Kakashi pondered.

"I think that you have a strong accusation, Sasuke, but nothings impossible. We'll question her, or we'll use Genjutsu to enter her mind… what do you think?" asked Kakashi,

"For the true answers, we'll have to use Genjutsu, Kakashi. Will you do it or me?" Kakashi laughed.

"You of course! You brought her here; you do all the dirty work." Sasuke sighed. And Kakashi took out his oh-so famous book and continued to read.

She walked over to the knocked out form of the beautiful pink haired girl and rolled her over onto her back, her arm draped over her body and her arm that was closer was drooping slowly off the bed.

"Damn she's cute," he murmured under his breath. Sasuke moved his thumbs and his first fingers together and closed his eyes.

"Mind Entering Jutsu!" he cried and suddenly, he felt kinda sick. When he raised his hand to hold his mouth shut he found himself looking into a mirror. He gasped and looked around.

He was in her picture mind. (If you've ever read Yu-Gi-Oh! Volume 3 then you know what I'm talking about, when that bald Egyptian dude when into Anzu's mind… ya know…?)

Dotted around the room were little boxes with blue ribbons attached to them. Presents. And around the walls were green ivy, and the mirrors that he saw were ballet mirrors with wooden rails.

"She's a ballerina." He said aloud. In another corner was a picture with Sakura laughing with a dark blue haired girl with white eyes.

But what really took his breath away, was in the corner of the large room, was Sakura in a white wedding dress. Her pink hair was draped over her shoulders and her face was white with powder. Her dress hung from her shoulders and was one of those Victorian Wedding dresses, (love that kind!) with layers of white fabric and beads. Sasuke walked over to her and grabbed her hand. Surprisingly, she laughed and rested her head on his shoulders.

"I love you," she murmured, Sasuke gaped. How could she say this to him? She twirled around the room and then disappeared, and then she came back looking very sad. She was holding the arm of some other man with thick eye brows, (Guess who?) and bug-eyes. He was grinning madly and looking at her sorta perverted like. Sakura's eyes filled with tears and she let go of his arm only to be captured by large iron casts gripped tightly around her wrists. She wanted to rebel, to be free. That was her choice. That's what Sasuke thought. The casts disappeared and there she was in black pants a fishnet tee shirt and underneath was a black tube top, in each hand was a sharp kunai; she dove for the guy with bug eyes and stabbed him in the back, and kicked him aside, and then ran away into a white light that had appeared.

Then she was back, with her friend, the one with the white eyes, and they were laughing.

Sasuke decided to leave her mind now, he had gotten his answers. He closed his eyes and when he opened them, he was back in his cabin, looking at Kakashi, who was still reading that insane book of his.

"Well?" asked Kakashi, he sighed.

"You're right, Kakashi, something is gonna be taken from her… her freedom. Her parents have engaged her to this man… and in her mind, she wishes to kill him, and gain her freedom." Kakashi stood up and walked over to the girl.

"I think we should help her." Said Kakashi.

"You said we have to, 'KEEP A LOW PROFILE' says the great Kakashi of the Shringan. And that's what I plan to do." Sasuke turned away to face the wall.

"C'mon, Sasuke, I think she'll grow on you, please." He pleaded. Sasuke sighed.

"Fine, but we can't let this get in the way of our other plan. Got it?" Kakashi closed his eye and nodded.

Naruto woke up beside Hinata in the kitchen were they had fell asleep. Hinata was still sleeping in his arms and Naruto's head was on her shoulder. His coat still wrapped around her.

They had stayed up talking and laughing in the dark. Talking about anything from Money to horses, from table clothes to alligators. Anything that you would say was random, they'd talk about it. When Hinata fell asleep, Naruto had silently studied her face, and when he was ready to fall asleep, kissed her on the forehead and silently lost himself in his dreams.

Slowly he shook her awake and told her to wake up. When she did, her eyes fluttered open, and looked at Naruto.

"Hey, Naruto. Sleep well?" she asked, he nodded.

"I'm hungry, let's get something to eat!" he asked, Hinata giggled.

"Sure, what do you want?" she asked.

"Well, they don't have ramen here, so, there is nothing else that I would really want," Hinata smiled.

"Well then I have a surprise for you, then. C'mon." she stood up and took his hand and led him to the first class dining room.

"Um… Hinata, I don't know if you don't… but…I'm a third class passenger." Hinata shrugged.

"So?"

"We're not aloud to be around each other. We're in different classes. You know that right?" she shrugged again.

"I still care for you, I really don't care." After these words Naruto felt warm inside, he tightened his grip on her hand,

"I care deeply about you too, Hinata." She smiled.

……………………………………………………………………………………………………….---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"When is she gonna wake up, Kakashi?" asked Sasuke about an hour later.

"Don't worry about your little girlfriend, she'll wake up in five…four…three…two…one…" Sakura began to stir.

"What the hell Kakashi…?" asked Sasuke, Sakura's green eyes slowly opened as she looked up at Sasuke.

"YOU!" she yelled, and grouped around for her kunai, but Sasuke had it swinging from his first finger.

"You're unarmed, so there's nothing you can do, of and Taijutsu won't work either. Tough luck girly." He smirked, she smiled.

"I wasn't thinking of that, I was thinking how much your sensei is a perv." She said, Kakashi laughed.

"So you are Sakura Haruno, nice to see you again,"

"Good to see you too, Kakashi sensei,"

Hello y'all! I hope you enjoyed as usual. Please review!
