Two months went by and Yuyiko's health changed for the better.

She was eating more and even walking. Everyone was happy for her, but noone was happier than Sasuke.

Between them, Sasuke was the one that made her gain the will to fight again.

Any moment that he could spare, it went to Yuyiko. He gave her all the things she longed for. And in turn, so did she.

Sakura was happy for her, but she couldn't help but feel down. Everytime she wanted to get closer, he'd get this uncomfortable look on his face. Even when they were in the same bed, they couldn't be even further apart. She felt like crying. She felt like destroying things. She felt as if she had no choice in losing his heart.


"What happened to us?"

Sakura looked at him sadly. They were getting ready for bed and Sasuke was stone quiet.

"What are you talking about?"

"You know damn well what I'm talking about."

"I'm just doing my job-"

"Don't give me that bull!"

"Sakura..."

"It's her, isn't it?"

"What?"

"You know who she is."

"Sakura, don't do this."

"And why not?!"
"I'm here to protect her just as you are."

"You two seem awfully close."

"We shared the same experience in Sound."

"How come you won't let me touch you then?"

Sasuke was stumped for a second.

"Because I get tired and sometimes I get sore."

"You liar."

"Sakura."

"Do you even love me Sasuke? Did I give you everything to have you throw it back into my face?"


Yuyiko was walking down the street in her black nightgown. She needed air from her ever-present nightmares.

She rubbed her aching back. She was seven months along and finding it a real challenge to around.

Sasuke helped me. He loves me even though I carry the child of Satan himself.

"You're out of the hospital, that's a relief."

"Go to hell Kabuto."

"Well, that's rude."

"And so is rape, but let's not get into that. Stay the hell away from me."

"And what if I don't? You carry m'lord's baby."

"And what, he owns me? You and the rest of Sound can shove it."

"Don't try to escape your destiny. You belong to us, now and forever."


Sister and brother forever...

Forever...

I love you sis...


A face came to her mind. A face so vivid and familiar, she thought she was going to faint.
You are important to this family...

You are important to me...


"No..."

Kabuto looked closer at her. She was shaking and jerking.

She was going into shock.

That couldn't happen.

He jumped from his hiding place and went to attend to her.

A kunai whizzed by his head, grazing him.

"Back away from her you bastard."

Naruto went to Yuyiko and examined her. She was in a state of severe shock and couldn't stop shaking.

"You dumbass! I have to do something before she-"

Yuyiko's earsplitting screams pierced the air, waking up half of the street.

"My...my water broke."

"Oh hell..."

Naruto looked down at the substance staining his pants.

It was tainted with blood.

A lot of blood.


"You bastard!"

Sakura threw anything that she could get her hands on. She hated this man that she called husband. She hated this train wreck they called marriage. She hated this love she felt for him even after all of this.

"Sakura-"

"Uchihas! We need you down in the infirmary! It's the girl; she went into premature labor and is in critical condition!"
