Control: Chapter Two: Breakaway

Naruto Kishimoto, not some Sasuke crazy fangirl


The room was painted in a pale peach color with an army green border. Sakura personally thought this was utterly hideous, but she kept quiet about that. Her main concern now was Sasuke. His wounds were put in bandages and he was ordered not to move a muscle. As of then, Sasuke was drugged and asleep. He had been missing for quite awhile until now. Many people thought he ran off in search of power from Orochimaru yet again, but now that can easily be disproved.

He was found, by Kiba and Akamaru that last night, just outside of the village, beaten and unconscious, with only a thin sheet wrapped around him. His ankles and wrists were tied tightly with rope, and he was gagged with a single piece of cloth stuffed nearly all the way down his throat. He had a note pinned to his right hand and he seemed to be repeating something over and over again. Though the rain masked it, there were streams of tears flowing down his face. It rained a lot this time of year in Konoha, being hurricane season.

When he woke up, his Sharingan immediately activated in a feeling of hostility, alertness, and fear. He began to scream his brother's name out as he tried to arise from his hospital bed to find him. His injuries were far too severe for him to just sit up without difficulty. His screams of pain and insanity could have been heard throughout the hospital, thus leading to at least ten nurses trying to keep him down in bed.

Of course since the whole hospital could hear his war with the nurses, this meant that his own teammates- Naruto, Sakura, and Kakashi could also hear it. They were able to identify the screaming almost simultaneously. After at least an hour of the repeated fighting, a nurse finally stuck him a tranquilizer needle, calming him down in no longer than 30 seconds.

That same needle is what had Sasuke asleep the next morning, with Sakura at his bedside, nearly to tears, Kakashi standing by the door and Naruto sitting in a corner staring blankly at the window. This silence remained for minutes later until Sasuke began to stir.

"Sasuke-kun…" Sakura gasped.

Kakashi signaled Sakura back off of him a bit.

Sasuke continued to stir until his eye opened the slightest bit. They fell just beyond Sakura's face

"Sasuke-kun, are you okay?"

Naruto slowly began to rise from his corner to greet Sasuke.

"Are you okay? What happened back there anyways?" Naruto put up his casual act.

Sasuke's eyes stayed glued to the space beyond Sakura. They looked dim and fogged. His lips parted slightly.

"Okaa-san...!"

Saying this, Sakura immediately turned around to see who he talking to. No one was there.

"Um… No one's there Sasuke-kun."

Sasuke sat up quickly and saw that no one was there. He frantically jerked his head around taking a look at everyone as if he was some captured wild animal.

"Sasuke-kun, you're alright now." Sakura reached her hand out to touch his shoulder, but he shoved her away as if she was a monster trying to hurt him and backed off into a corner, embracing himself.

"Don't touch me!" Sasuke whined, holding himself tighter. He had bandages wrapped around his head (covering his left eye), waist, right arm and hand, left leg and foot in a cast, and his left arm was in an arm sling. He dropped down with his head in his knees and began to sob, warding off any of them who came near.

His three teammates stood in disbelief watching Sasuke act in such a way. Kakashi called a nurse in to help, but Sasuke just pushed her off as well. When a couple of nurses tried to forcefully put him back to bed or tranquilize him, he violently avoided them and frantically made his way out of the hospital.


Chapter three is on the way!

BTW: My sister read this first and she told me that she was confused around the beginning, so for the record, paragraph 2-4 states what happened when Sasuke was found. As of Chapter 2, Sasuke was beaten by Itachi 2 days ago, found 1 day ago, and what you just read is "today".

Every second you don't review, God kills a kitten. Please. Think of the kittens.
