What was lost, What was Gained
ch. 12
Hinata's POV
Camp was set up quicker than I thought, all of the rookies wanted to help with team seven's aid. Ino and TenTen had set up a medical tent where each member of team seven laid in a cot. I sat by Naruto's side, Ino and Chouji were the ones taking over the majority of the medical attention. Ino wiped her brow and moved away from Naruto.
"Man, how does Sakura do this has a living?"
"Are they going to be okay?"
I asked clasping my hands together. My eyes jumped from Ino from Naruto.
"Yeah, but I don't know too much into his condition. If Sakura wakes up soon she'll be able to tell you more. All I can say is he'll live."
I followed Ino over to Sasuke's bed.
"What about Sasuke?"
Ino sighed and grabbed the chart clipped to his bed. Chouji had done most of the work on Sasuke.
"Um, he looks okay. Less damage than Naruto but more than Sakura. What it looks like was he was damaged by Naruto's jutuses the most. He should come around some time today or tomorrow. Like I said before, I'm not an expert medical ninja."
My eyes dropped to the floor and I returned to Naruto's side. How did this happen. I was surprised as I looked down on Naruto, that I felt a surge of anger. Something I had never felt before towards Naruto. I pulled myself away from the tent and helped the other rookies with clearing camp and trying to find where Itachi might have headed of too. Kiba appeared at my side.
"Neji and I tired following Itachi's trail but we lost it a few west, sorry."
I placed a hand on his shoulder and gave a not so confident smile.
"Thanks for trying. I know you guys did everything in your power. You two can help Tenten in setting more protective traps."
"Do you really think Itachi would attack in such a weaken state?"
I paused for a moment letting my eyes fall to the ground.
"Most if the traps aren't meant for Itachi- they're meant if...things get out of hand again."
With that I turned away from my teammate.
"Hinata!"
Ino yelled running out of the tent waving her hands in the air.
"Sakura has woken up! Come on, she can help us with the guys!"
My feet acted on their own and charged after Ino into the tent, there Sakura was sitting at the edge of her bed unwrapping her bandages. I let out a breath of relief, she looked better now than she did a few hours ago.
"Sakura, how are you feeling?"
Her eyes turned at me but I found no comfort, her eyes were weary and sad. Sakura didn't answer right away, instead she rubbed her neck and tried to pat her hair down.
"I've been better."
She said heavily. Ino kneeled next to Sakura putting her hand on Sakura's knee.
"Hey Sakura, I know you just now became consisious but, Naruto and Sasuke need some expert medical care. Are you well enough to take a look?"
Sakura didn't look up from the ground but stood up without a word and walked over to the two other cots. She looked down at Sasuke's bed then walked right past and kneeled next to Naruto's. Both Ino and I seemed a little uncomfortable, usually Sakura would pass up the hokage to heal Sasuke first.
"Um, Sakura shouldn't you take a look at Sasuke?"
Sakura stopped exaiming Naruto but didn't turn around. Instead she quickly tossed a glass of water at Sasuke's cot.
"Get up Sasuke! How long are you going to just lay there!?"
Ino and I almost jumped when we saw a smirk on Sasuke's face erupt. He casually got out of bed. My thought no doubt were twins to Ino, had he been awake all this time.
"Should have known one look at me you could see I was awake Sakura."
Sakura didn't say anything and went back at looking at Naruto. I turned to Sasuke who seemed to have lost his attitude as Sakura continued to ignore him. It looked like Sasuke wanted to say something but I was more concerned with Naruto's diagnosis. Sakura wiped her brow and stood up.
"Don't worry Hinata, Naruto's already healing at a rate it would be better for him to heal himself then myself interfering. Tomorrow morning at the latest he shoud wake up."
She kept her back turned to us, gave one last sad look down at Naruto and walked out of the tent. Sasuke gave a growl like sound and stomped after her, Ino and I followed, I didn't say but I had a bad feeling pulse through me.
Sakura's POV
I felt Sasuke following me, I sighed and halted in the middle of the camp. I kept my back towards him.
"Sa..ka..ura.."
Sasuke said in a low enraged voice.
"Go away!"
I ordered. His hand grabbed my shoulder and spun me around, I knocked his hand away as I matched is baneful expression.
"Don't touch me!"
"Don't ignore me!"
I wanted to walk away again but my pride refused to let me be the mature one.
"Why should I care if you're hurt! You brought all your injuries on yourself! So you can heal on your own!"
I spat back, I could plainly see that I was only adding kindle to his fire.
"How does defending myself mean I don't deserve medical attention from you?"
I didn't let up my glare as all the rookies began gathering around, mumbling between themselves wondering if they should step in.
"Defending!? Is that what you call it!? You're nothing but a hypocrite!?"
"What!? You're the one who told me that you were okay dying for me Sakura! You said you would gladly give up you're life for my revenage. You're the hypocrite!"
My fists tighten to the point I was sure I would start to bleed because I didn't have my gloves on.
"I'm not talking about that you idiot! You became a hypocrite the moment you started fighting Naruto instead of going after your brother. All that talk before how you wanted Naruto and I at your side when you finally achieved your reason for living. You didn't even try to go after Itachi after he ran. Instead you were to ticked off because Naruto charged you and insulted you for wanting to let me die."
I crushed my teeth together trying to calm back down, Sasuke made no such effort.
"In case you forgot, I couldn't go after Itachi because Naruto was attacking me!"
"No, you didn't want to go after Itachi because you were upset at Naruto for biting off your head for allowing Itachi to try and kill me! You were mostly mad at yourself Sasuke isn't that right..."
Sasuke winced angrily.
"You regreted letting me almost die but your pride for your revenage stopped you from acting. And when Naruto attacked you, you knew that if you went after Itachi then you would be admitting that Naruto was right and you were ashamed of your descsion! Isn't that right Sasuke!"
I yelled waving my hand in the air. Sasuke's face stiffen and became even more malignant.
"If I'm so rotten and horrible to you why would you bother wanting to marry me! Is it because Sakura you yourself can't admitt you're wrong! You said you wanted to help me but when the chance to prove what you promised came you became a coward and now are looking for an excuse to cover it up, so you hide behind me and Naruto fighting!"
At this point in the fight I truly believe neither one of us was thinking with our heads, and our mouths just kept going.
"I was wrong about you! Ever since we met I was wrong! You are a souless sad excuse for a human being and I'm sicken at myself for ever wanting to marry you! I ha...-"
I bet my tongue unable to sat the next word.
"I never want to marry you! I never want to hear your voice, hear your name! I want to get as far away from you as possible!"
In a swift moment I threw the ring on my left hand at his head, just as it left my hand I turned and ran in the opposite direction, sparkles of tears flowed behind me.
