Disclaimer- I'm too tired to think of something funny. I don't own Naruto.

It seem that every force in the universe was out to get me. What did I do to anger these unknown forces, I do not know. But I do know that I must change it. I wouldn't be able to take this abuse any longer.
It's been a few days since Sasuke dropped a bomb on my life. Lucky for me, he got called away for a two week mission in the Hidden Star village the day after.
But, when I think about it. There really isn't anything I can do. I can't tell Gaara, he would probably try to kill Sasuke, but I'd never let that happen. Even if I do dislike Sasuke, and he is blackmailing me, that's no reason to have him killed. I can't tell Naruto, he's still out of town, and besides, he'd run right to Tsunade and that would ruin everything. I could just come clean with Tsunade and maybe she'd consider letting Gaara join the shinobi ranks?
Nah, why take the chance?
It seemed like no matter what I came up with, all things led to someone running to Tsunade. No one would understand. I would just have to grin and bear it until I came up with the perfect plan.
Meanwhile, during the past few days, Gaara has been very bold. A few stolen kisses here and there, innocent they seem, I know it means something a whole lot deeper then what he is letting on.
But why drag up the whole "mate" incident when things are just getting back to normal? But what was normal anyway? Did normal kunoichi have amazingly strong imaginary friends that turn out to be real?
Great. I've never even had a normal life then!
What could I do? Not only do I have these waking problems, but my dreams were getting stranger and stranger. Every one of them about me in a hospital room. It was weird beyond the fact that I was studying to become a medic nin, and my training might have some affect to my subconscious But every single night?
I was going to mention my dreams to Kakashi since I trust him the most out of anyone I know. But after the last time, I didn't want to risk being taken to the hospital, -the very place I've been trying to avoid- again.
While I look back over the past few weeks, I just know that a huge choice is looming in my future.
But will I make the right choice?

Shukaku made his plans perfect. He rewrote a mission form, assigning Sasuke to go on a mission that Genin could do with ease. It would humiliate him to no end! It was too perfect!
While Sasuke was gone, he would take Sakura out with him in the forest as an official apology for his behavior. But, he had some nice surprise's instead of what she thought.
Shukaku smirked. 'All in due time, my flower. All in due time.'

Thud.
Naruto was sent flying back down the set of stairs. The wind knocked out of him.
Laying on the floor, he gasped for air in Sasuke's dusty basement. His throat was dry, his lips were chapped, and he was hungry beyond human standards.
Why? Do you ask?
Reason being he was trying to break down the door to get out. The short people -as Naruto called them- had been huddled in a corner the whole time he had been down there. Not daring to lift a finger to help.
Naruto stood up clumsily from the floor, heaved a great sigh, and tried once more.
Thud.

(Meanwhile... in the Hidden Star Village.)
He was hot.
He was hot and tired.
He was hot, sticky, and tired.
Sasuke had had just about enough of his current mission. It couldn't really even be called a mission! It was more like he was a slave to the people. Of course, their own ninja couldn't degraded themselves to do D-rank missions, so they call in an ally.
This was a waste of his amazing talents! He could do so much more then digging in gardens, and planting in fields! It angered him to no end!
So Sasuke was fuming. His bitterness at his pathetic mission was piling inside of him.
And he knew just the person to take it out on.
