CHAPTER 11
Sakura picked Sasuke up and said, "Sasuke, we're going to go help alright. Like I said; stay close." Sasuke nodded, as he and Sakura ran with the man, outside the gates of Konoha.
Sasuke and Sakura could both smell the blood. Without stopping, Sakura ripped off a large piece of her sleeve. "Sasuke, here: use this; so it's easier to breath." she whispered, as he tied it around his mouth and nose.
"Thanks nee-san. I hope father isn't involved in this." he mumbled, looking sad.
"Sasuke, he is, because I'm not going to let him die. Even if it costs me my life." she mumbled, knowing for a fact; that Sasuke's dad was the best and lead officer in Konoha. Now; her words were true, she didn't have a father in her time, or a mother. Mikoto was Sakura's mother, and Fugaku was her father, nothing could change that now.
When they reached the bloody battle field; they saw many people lying dead on the ground, but that didn't meet Sakura's eyes. Her eyes trailed over the others to a shaky man, who had just fallen to the ground. She ran quickly to his side, and checked to see if he was right.
In front of her was a bloody Uchiha Fugaku. Sasuke was now balling at the sight of his father. "Sasuke, please calm down. I can't do anything while you're crying." Sakura whispered wrapping her arms around the teary boy.
Sasuke stopped in an instant: wanting his father to stay alive. Sakura smiled as she filled her hands with chakra. Sakura let a soft tear run down her face, as she started to heal Fugaku. I will not let him die; I will not let Sasuke feel that kind of pain so early... Please let me do this one thing!
A sudden bust of chakra came from her. She let most of it flow into Fugaku, healing his wounds quicker. Please Fugaku-san... I don't want to see Sasuke cry, please pull though, thoughts ran though her head, as she continued to heal Fugaku.
"Nee-san," Sasuke yelled. Sakura turned to see a cloud ninja charging at them. Without any hesitation, she pulled her hand away from Fugaku, and ran towards Sasuke.
I'm not going to let him be hurt! Her mind screamed as she pulled him into an embrace, her back to the ninja. Blood spattered everywhere but Sakura didn't scream, "Sasuke, a-are you a-alright?" she asked flinching a bit at the pain.
Sasuke was trembling as he looked into her eyes. He looked down to her chest to see the point of a katana sticking out, "N-nee-san!" he cried, at seeing that she had been hurt protecting him.
"Sasuke, don't cry... E-everything, is going to be a-alright." she said, getting to her feet, as the blade was removed. The ninja she had followed their, was now fighting off the cloud ninja.
"Please miss. Heal Uchiha-san!" he said, as he deflected another blow from the cloud ninja. Sakura nodded, as she began to heal Fugaku again.
She was quick as she closed all the large wounds, and healed all the internal injuries. Soon; he looked as if nothing had happened. Sakura got to her feet, and stood next to Sasuke, "Sasuke stay by Fugaku-san until he wakes up. I'm going to fight."
"No nee-san! Your badly hurt, please don't fight." he pleaded, grabbing her hand.
Sakura smiled at him, "I have to help: I don't like others fighting my battles." she smiled as she kissed him on the forehead. "Stay with your father; and you'll be safe." she mumbled as she dashed off leaving drops of blood, on the ground behind her.
Sasuke watched; as she fought against the will of her body to drop dead, "I told you she's strong." he mumbled, as he put his hand on his father's head. Fagaku's eyes started to open, as he sat up. "Father," Sasuke said, as he hugged his father.
"Sasuke, what are you doing out here?" he asked, and upon seeing that here was small drops of blood on Sasuke's shirt, he asked; "What happened?"
"Nee-san healed you, and got stabbed protecting Me." he whispered, turning to the fight.
The cloud ninja smirked, "You should be worrying about yourself Pinky, instead of worrying about that worthless Uchiha." The ninja tried to jab a kunai at Sakura, but missed.
Sakura ducked and kicked the man in his stomach. "Don't talk bad about the Uchiha family in any way!" she snapped, as she elbowed him in the back. With another kick she sent him flying across the field, into a tree.
"You stupid bitch!" another ninja shouted as he dashed at her. This time, he had a short katana in his hand. The katana made a deep cut in her shoulder, which pierced though to the other side.
Sakura flinched in pain, but did a couple seals. Suddenly; the ninja could not move. Damn, a Body freeze jutsu, she's a strong ninja to be using ANBU skills when she's of chuunin age, the ninja thought, looking for his opponent who had vanished. Damn, where did she go? She's good at masking her chakra.
"Hey, I'm up here. And you call yourself a ninja." Sakura snapped from above. Suddenly, she came crashing down on the ninja with a kunai in hand. Oddly; she didn't go for any of his vital points, she hit his arm.
The man screamed out in pain, as he stared at Sakura, "So, you like to play around, do you? You're only prolonging your own death. I hit your heart and you'll die soon enough." he snapped with a smile.
"If I die; I die. No big deal, I'm nothing. If an Uchiha dies, it's my fault; since I'm a medic." she snapped, as she held up her hand that started filling with an immense amount of chakra. "You are the same: a nothing, a nobody, who resorts to killing for pleasure."
He rushed at her, only to be punched in the face with her inhuman strength, along with all the chakra in her hand. All together that equals a whole lot of broken bones.
Sakura fell to her knees as blood dripped from her deep wounds. "Nee-san," Sasuke screamed, seeing the blood pooling around her. The ninja was getting up, and Sasuke didn't want Sakura to be hurt. I have to do something. I can't let nee-san be hurt.
Sasuke got to his feet, and ran. As he ran; he kept doing seals that he had been trying to learn. In a flash of light, fire exploded around the field. Sasuke did it. He did the Uchiha's fire jutsu. What a strong boy he's become. Fagaku thought with a smile. Suddenly, he heard Sasuke scream.
When the smoke finally cleared; everyone saw a cloud ninja holding Sasuke up by his throat. Sakura quickly got to her feet, and ran directly at the man. "Let him go!" she screamed as she slammed into the man with a strong kick in the ribs. The man quickly let go of Sasuke.
Sasuke fell to the ground; gasping for air. Sakura again fell to the ground, using her good arm for support. "Sasuke, I want you and your father to get out of here. There are four ANBU running around looking for you, and if you guys stay here you'll be acting as targets." she whispered.
"But Nee-san..." he started, but noticed that her eyes were scared for his sake, and his sake only, "Alright, But keep safe." he whispered, giving her a hug before he ran to his father.
Fagaku got up and looked at her, "Keep strong, Sakura-sama." he whispered, as he and his son ran away from the battle fields.
Sakura smiled as she got to her feet again. In front of her were four cloud ANBU. They all look so weak, but then again I got stabbed twice. Maybe I should fight a little less head on. The four ANBU smirked at her, as they took out their own weapons.
IN THE FUTURE
Sasuke walked into the hospital room, only to see tons of nurses tending to Sakura's wounds, "What the hell happened?"
