A/n: Ok really long chapter! Yeah! Well I hope you liked it I worked for about 3 hours on it! Well R&R! Please!
Gaara let out a groan, "what happened?" he tried to move but couldn't he opened his eyes, and looked around.
He was chained to a cell wall, his arms, legs, he was chained down well, he looked around the cell, and when he looked beside him,
"Sakura!" he said in alarm, she was chained to the same wall, but she was unconscious, "Sakura" he tried to wake her.
He looked down at her blood stained kimono, he frowned this was all his fault, 'you're weak' Shukaku taunted, 'go away' Gaara sneered.
'I'll never go away I'm infused with your soul' he laughed, 'damn demon' Gaara frowned.
'Will you just shut up' Gaara snapped, 'fine, but if that Sasuke-teme steals her don't come crying to me' Shukaku stated.
"Gaara…" he heard Sakura whisper weakly, "what's going on?" he looked at her she was very weak, "I think we were taken by Sasuke and Ino" he answered truthfully.
"Gaara…I'm loosing too much blood I need to get out of here" she said trying to stay conscious.
Gaara began gathering all the sand around in the cracks of the floor and walls, he finally had enough to begin unlocking his locks.
Soon he was free and moved over to Sakura, he frowned seeing her condition, her arm was still bleeding and her face had a bruise on it.
He took out a kunai and began to work the locks, when he freed her she fell to the ground, but she did not hit it for he caught her.
He picked her up bridal style, and used the sand he had to unlock the cell, he walked out.
'I have no idea where we are' he thought, he began walking down the halls quietly, he walked past a cell and then stopped to retake.
"TenTen…" Sakura whispered, TenTen was nailed to the wall with kunai, she looked up, "Gaara, Sakura you're alive, I thought after what they did to you two you would be dead"
Gaara unlocked TenTen's cell, "put me down Gaara" Sakura said, Gaara put her down and she slowly walked over to TenTen she pulled out all the kunai holding her friend.
TenTen took out some bandages and wrapped them around her wounds then she wrapped up Sakura's arm.
"What did they do to us?" Gaara asked, TenTen looked up, "well Gaara you were unconscious the whole time, but…they put something or took something out of you two"
Sakura's head dropped down, Gaara looked at her, "Sakura what did they do"
Sakura looked up, "it turns out I am pregnant and the tried to take it away" she whispered, Gaara's eyes widened, "they didn't did they?"
"They tried but didn't, and the were about to inject something into you as they were about to get it out of me but then…" Sakura stopped.
"Then what?" Gaara asked, "you went crazy, and started talking really weird it was like it wasn't you, and you started killing people and demanded they heal me and if they touch the baby they would die" she was breathing hard.
"And it was if you had already known I was pregnant, before I knew and your eyes were black, they had healed me but you still were angry and you killed everyone until they finally restrained you.
"You kept yelling the only reason that they wanted the baby dead was because it would be like you" she cried.
He then realized, 'it was Shukaku' 'you called' he replied, 'did you do that?' Gaara asked the demon, 'I did indeed, as much as she is yours, she is mine' he said with a serious tone.
'They were going to kill it, and that baby has a part of me in it,' Shukaku answered, 'I told you, you liked her' Gaara inwardly smirked, 'I will admit I am a little found of her' Shukaku admitted.
Gaara broke from his internal conversation, "it was Shukaku" he said to them, Sakura and TenTen looked confused, "who's Shukaku?" Sakura asked.
Gaara sighed, "he is the demon inside of me, he was sealed to my soul before I was born but that's a story for another day, if TenTen is here, I'm sure Hinata, Neji, and Naruto are some where here also,"
"But Sakura the one who saved the baby was Shukaku he doesn't want to lose it because it has a part of him in it, and when they tried to take that away from him, he took over" Gaara finished.
Sakura smiled, "Well tell Shukaku thank you but my heart only belongs to one person"
He stood up and picked her up, "can you walk?" he asked TenTen, she stood up, "yeah I'll be fine"
They continued down the corridors, "Neji-sama!" TenTen called as she saw Neji in a cell, he was barely conscious, he was badly beaten and chained hard against the wall.
He looked up, his eyes went wide, "you have to hurry, Hinata will die if the Byakugan is messed with!" Neji yelled.
Sakura's eyes widened she jumped out of Gaara's arms and ran down the hallway, "Sakura!" Gaara called, "TenTen free Neji" Gaara ordered, chasing after Sakura.
Sakura came up to double doors, she ran through them, she was blinded by the white room and the bright lights.
Her eyes adjusted and she saw Hinata, on an examination table "Hinata!" Sakura called out all the doctor people looked at her.
They're eyes went wide, "it's the women of the demon, if she's here he'll be here soon!" they panicked, and as if right on cue, Gaara came through the doors.
"Run!" they screamed and all exited the room, "well that went nicely…" Gaara said sarcastically, Sakura suddenly felt dizzy and her legs grew weak, she collapsed to the ground.
"Sakura!" Hinata and Gaara called, Gaara caught her before she hit the floor, he then broke Hinata from her restraints.
"Are you ok Hinata?" Gaara asked, she nodded, "they were trying to find out what makes the Byakugan work, but you two got here before they had a chance to do anything"
Then TenTen walked in with Neji leaning on her, "are you ok, Hinata?" Neji asked looking at his cousin, she nodded.
"Where is Naruto?" Hinata asked worried, "I'm right here" Naruto said, they all looked down at a tied up Naruto.
Hinata and TenTen untied him, "you all right?" Gaara asked, "Yea, I'm fine" Naruto looked at TenTen's wrapped arms and legs, "what did they do to you?" Naruto asked her.
"Oh, don't worry about me, they tried to immobilize me, something about my expertise with weapons," TenTen smiled.
"I managed to almost kill one of those girls" TenTen said trying to lighten the mood, "but where are we?" Sakura asked.
They all looked at each other; TenTen spoke first, "I went unconscious after I hit the wall"
"Gaara and I were out, Gaara was paralyzed with poison, and I was out cold" Sakura said sadly.
"I was out, Neji and I, our Byakugan was tricked they did something to create something to disrupt it" Hinata replied.
Neji nodded to agree with Hinata, all looked at Naruto, "well I didn't get knocked out," he smiled; they all had hope in their eyes.
"But…I was blindfolded" he rubbed the back of his head; TenTen and Sakura twitched and hit Naruto.
"Well let's get out of here" Sakura said getting up to try and walk but feel back down, Gaara picked her up bridal style, "I guess I'm still to weak from the 'experimenting'" Sakura sighed cuddling to her Gaara.
"Sakura, look what you did" TenTen said pointing to Sakura's kimono, "you got blood all over it"
"Yea sorry about that I know this was your best work," Sakura apologized, TenTen sighed, "oh well it's no big deal at least you're not dead"
They started down another hallway, "I wonder what they wanted with us?" Hinata whispered as they snuck around.
"You really want to know?" a voice echoed, they all looked around but saw no person, "well, I will tell you since you will never escape," it chuckled.
"Well first we wanted Gaara and his demon, then we found out about his lady's baby," it kept on laughing, "but as we went to retrieve them we found some very interesting people"
"Then we saw the two young Hyuuga's use their Byakugan and wanted to know how that worked, even if we couldn't duplicate it we are just going to rip those white little eyes out and put them in one of our elite" the voice cackled, enjoying their fear.
"Then we found out that blonde boy was the holder of the nine tailed demon, and then that girl with the brown hair has an abnormal skill with weapons, and that intrigued us, but she would not cooperate so we nailed her down"
Then all went quiet, "Oh I almost forgot" the voice echoed, "the Sand lord and leaf princess, well actually it is now Lord and Lady of Sand, we're wanted for other personal reasons"
Gaara was becoming furious, he looked at Neji and Naruto, signaling something, but then they all felt their feet wet, they looked down and the hall was filling with water.
"I was told to not let you leave even if it meant your death" the laughed maliciously.
"Come on!" Gaara commanded, Neji picked up TenTen, and Naruto picked up Hinata and they began running to the end of the hallway.
"There is no escape!" the voice called, they finally made it to the door, Gaara tried to open it but it was locked, 'of course' he thought.
Gaara handed Sakura to Neji who held TenTen and Sakura now, and Gaara began hammering down at the door as the water was rising, now to about Gaara's thighs.
Gaara' knuckles began to bleed until finally the door collapsed in, but there was water on that side too, "damn" Gaara cursed aloud.
He grabbed Sakura and they began running again, the water was now raised to their waists, "What's that?" Naruto asked pointing up.
Gaara looked up, it was a vent "come on Naruto get on my shoulders," Gaara ordered, "now you guys have to get up there" he told the rest.
Hinata went up first and broke the cover to it before getting in; she was in, than TenTen went up.
Sakura went up using all her strength and some help from Hinata and TenTen, and then Neji followed.
Gaara put his hands under Naruto's feet and lifted him up, where Neji and Hinata pulled him up; the water was now up to his chest.
Neji and Naruto put their hands down and Gaara jumped and grabbed them, Neji and Naruto pulled him up, with the assist of Sakura who fell into his arms when he got up their.
"Lets go" Gaara said crawling through the vent followed by Sakura, then Hinata, then Naruto, then TenTen, and in the back was Neji.
As they were crawling Sakura's arm gave way, from lack of blood, she smashed down, "are you ok?" Gaara asked turning his head.
Sakura nodded and got back up, as they continued they felt their hands become wet, they looked down "damn it" Gaara cursed.
They hurried along in the vent, "I see something" Sakura stated, pointing forward, there was a light emitting, from the end.
They hurried down until the reached the end where Gaara punch the vent cover off.
He jumped down to find himself in a bed room, he looked at the bed to find Ino and Sasuke sleeping, he looked back up to the vent, and put his finger to his lips to tell them to be silent.
Sakura jumped down and Gaara caught her in his arms, Hinata and Naruto both jumped down making their impact quiet.
Neji jumped down first and caught TenTen when she jumped, she couldn't handle the impact on her legs because they were still wounded.
Sakura saw Ino and was filled with rage, they all exited the room as quietly as possible, "damn it, if that's where they live, we are in the rock nation" Sakura whispered.
"So" Gaara whispered back, "Rock is right near Sand, and we all need medical attention, and we can't get it here" Sakura paused hoping he would get it.
Gaara's eye's widened, "we have to go, don't we?" he asked, Sakura nodded, than they noticed they were in a palace hallway.
Naruto picked Hinata up again and put her on his back, Neji lifted TenTen to his back also, why they did this was because the guys were faster.
Gaara moved Sakura to his back so he could run faster, they all dashed down the hallway, they came up to the front area and smashed the doors open.
They ran out to find the whole rock army out there, "come on!" Naruto complained.
Gaara smiled seeing all the loose sand everywhere, "hold on" he told them, suddenly a tidal wave of sand engulfed the whole army burring them under.
They dashed over the sand, making a run for the gates of rock, TenTen looked back to make sure they were home free.
Her eyes widened, "that Sasuke guy is coming!" TenTen told Neji, he sped up "Gaara, Sasuke is trying to stop us"
Gaara looked back and glared at Sasuke, Gaara stopped Sasuke with the sand and wrapped it around his legs, he closed his hand and crushed his legs.
Sasuke let out a painful screech, then Gaara caught him again and threw him off in the other direction.
Gaara turned around and speed towards the others taking the lead once again, "we have to go to Sand, to be healed" Gaara told the others.
"But Gaara I thought you ran from Sand for a while," Neji said worried, "I know but we need medical attention and fast," he said looking at the sleeping Sakura in his back.
He looked forward, he was not looking forward to going home yet, but Temari would make sure everything was ok.
