Chapter 3:
Punishment
"WHAT IN HELLS NAME HAPPENED!?" Ms. Shizuna yelled at Naruto and Sasuke.
Silence. The both off them couldn't say anything to Ms. Shizuna about Sakura or what just happened not but ten minutes ago.
"WELL SPIL IT OUT YOU TWO!!" she continued to yell at them.
Silence.
"DAMN IT YOU ASSHOLES ANSWER HER!" Ms. Tsunade yelled at the both of them.
Silence.
"Damn it you two! ALL RIGHT THEN SASUKE I'M CALLING ITACHI AND NARTUO I'M CALLING YOUR FOSTER MOTHER! IS THAT ALRIGHT FOR YOU TWO!" she yelled at them at the top of her lungs!
Silence.
Sasuke and Naruto couldn't even move it was if they where still frozen in time…in that moment…it all meant nothing to them that Ms. Tsunade was yelling at them or the he was treating to call their legal gardens.
Ms. Tsunade started at them for a while. She took a long time and to everyone in the office it felt like ten years before she said anything.
"Okay guys I got it now. Naruto hit Sakura but he meant to hit Sasuke but missed and hit her instead...and now the both of you feel guilty about the whole thing…am I right or not?" Ms. Tsunade asked in a clam voice as if she was trying to make them feel better about the whole thing.
They both nodded their heads at what she said. Ms. Tsunade walked towards the phone and picked up.
"I'm going to call Itachi and Ms. Lunamaria…ok boys?" Ms. Tsunade asked calmly.
"NO!" they both where out of their trances that the past had put on them.
"Oh why not?" she asked curiously.
"Itachi is working today and he can't come and get me!" Sasuke started. "If he does he'll get fired! So he can't…"
"And Ms. Lunamaria is to busy to come and get me!" Naruto added in.
"Well you both should have thought about that before you guys got into a fight in my school!" she nagged at them as she started to dial Itchia's work number.
"N-no…n-n-no" a lit whispering voice said
"What? Who was that?!" Ms. Tsunade said with a strange look on her face.
Everyone looked around the room searching for the sound of that voice. Naruto looked under everything…I mean everything! Sasuke looked around when he felt a little soft tug on his shirt and looked down at Sakura. It was Sakura how said that! But…but why would she do that…
"Sakura…are you alright?" Sasuke said loud enough for only Sakura to hear it.
"Sa-Sasu-Sasuke…" she said in that same weak voice.
"Sakura are you okay?" he repeated.
"I-I'm fine Sas-Sasuke" she answered looking in to his emotionless eyes with a smile on her face.
Sakura…I don't get her sometimes…why does she always do this? I know she's hurt but why does she have to be so…so…so…Sakura…doesn't she know she can just tell me and Naruto what's up or what's wrong with her…I guess I'll have to figure it out…alright then…I'll figure it out if she wouldn't tell me…Sakura…
Naruto looked over at Sasuke and Sakura and he saw that Sakura was awake again!
"SAKURA!!" he yelled running over to Sasuke and Sakura.
Ms. Tsunade looked over at all of them. She thought deep and hard about what to do now. This is great! What the hell I'm I going to do now!? Sakura's awake and no one can come and get these kids! What to do! What to do!…I've got it!
"Alright guys here's the plan. Sasuke and Naruto you guys take Sakura home and put her in bed and wait for someone in her family to come home got it! Oh and while you're discussing what to do Sasuke hand me Sakura I'm going to fix up that wound of hers." she told them as she put the phone back on the ringer.
Sasuke handed Ms. Tsunade Sakura as Ms. Tsunade cleared a place for Sasuke to put her down on. He placed her on the place she cleared for her and Ms. Tsunade stared to fix up Sakura.
"Wait! Why don't me and Sasuke come back to school?" Naruto asked confused.
"You and Sasuke are suspended for the next two days. And I'm not counting today!" she asked trying not to laugh at how stupid Naruto's question was.
"So…are you really going to tell Itachi or Ms. Lunamaria?" Sasuke asked hoping for a no.
"Yep! I am going to tell them but Itachi wont lose his job nor will Ms. Lunamaria…okay guys?" she told them ushering to them that what she was saying was the truth.
Sasuke and Naruto nodded their heads as they left the office. Naruto said nothing to Sasuke the rest of the way to their locker. Naruto got his stuff out of the locker first.
"Sasuke, do you need anything?" Naruto asked not even looking at Sasuke.
"Yeah…just my bag" he replied without looking at him. "Sakura…do you need anything form your locker?"
"No Sasuke…I'm fine. Thanks for asking" Sakura answer trying not to yawn as she was starting to fall back to sleep.
Naruto handed Sasuke him bag and he slammed the locker shut. "TO SAKURA'S HOUSE!" Naruto yelled at the both of them as Sakura woke up.
"NARUTO!" she yelled as she tried to kill him form Sasuke's arms.
"My side hurts still…" She said squinting her eyes as she heeled her side tight.
Naruto looked down at the ground hoping that Sakura didn't remember how she got the wound. Sakura looked at Naruto and she knew that he was the one that hit her and caused her to get hurt…but as she was going to say something she drifted back into sleep. The way to Sakura's house was silent enough to where you could only hear the birds chirping.
They finally reached Sakura's house and used Sakura's house key to get in. Sasuke took Sakura upstairs and placed her in her bed. Why dose she have to be so…so…so…damn it! There I go again! Thinking about things that will never happen…
"Goodnight…Sakura" Sasuke said underneath his breath like a whisper only loud enough for Sakura to hear it.
Sasuke walked down the stairs and saw Naruto picking through Sakura's refrigerator. Sasuke gave him a smirk and walked towards the phone in the living room. He picked up and called Itachi.
"This is Itachi Uchiha. Sorry I couldn't answer the phone right now but I promise that I'll get back to you as soon as possible. Leave your message at the beep...Oh and if this is Sasuke I'll be home late tonight…sorry about that Sasuke...may be next time little brother…"
BEEP"Hey Itachi…it Sasuke…I did something and I know you're going to kill me about it later…so I'll tell you when you get home…and change you're answering machine! I know you're going to be home late! You're…you're always home late…"
--Itachi Finds Out--
"Guess I should check my voice mail" Itachi said as he picked up him cell phone.
"You have 1 new message from little brother. Would you like to hear it?"
Wow…why would Sasuke call me during school hours? Well better listen to it…I just hope that he's not hurt or in trouble again.
"Hey Itachi…it Sasuke…I did something and I know you're going to kill me about it later…so I'll tell you when you get home…and change you're answering machine! I know you're going to be home late! You're…you're always home late…"
Damn it Sasuke! You got in trouble again…I hope you didn't…Itachi finally got of work and took a little trip to Sasuke's high school. As he reached the school he remember everything that happened there the good…and the bad. As he walked in throw the doors he remember hanging one of his friend on the top of the door and leaving it open in the middle of a storm. He laughed a little and continued walking towards the office. He passed him old locker him old classrooms his old everything. Finally her reached the office and as he knocked on the principle's door he remember that faithful day he was called to the office and never came back.
"Come in!" the person on the other side of the door yelled.
He did as asked and opened the door to find Ms. Tsunade looking throw Sasuke's recorded.
"What's that?" he asked portending to be someone else.
"Sasuke Uchiha's record! I just can't get that kid at all…" she said with a yawn in her voice.
"Oh well if you want some help figuring him out just let me know" Itachi said as Ms. Tsunade's head shot up off the desk.
"Itachi! Oh sorry about the whole me looking at his record thing…ha, ha, ha." She looked at him feeling like a complete idiot.
"It's alright Ms. Tsunade…but do you want to understand him a little more?" he asked hoping for her to say yes.
"Yes…what can you tell me Itachi?" she asked with a look in her eye that showed Itachi that she really wanted to know.
"Here's the main story or do want the whole thing?" he asked politely.
"The whole thing would be nice. I don't have anything else to do tonight…so go for the whole thing!" she instated.
"Okay the whole thing it is," Itachi smiled and he started his story. "I guess the best place to start out in would be with our father. He never really liked us at all…so the day Sasuke was born he left my mother, Sasuke, and me all alone. Our mother did the best she could with everything. I mean everything! She was the perfect mother in my eye's she was. She worked for everything she had. She worked for hours on end and she still always had time for Sasuke and me. I know I had a father but Sasuke never did and I never wanted to be my father so I…become more of my mother than anything else. When Sasuke was about six or seven years old our mother started to get sick…she got sicker more and more everyday…until she only had hours left. She spent everything on us so her hospitl bills where paid buy our mothers friend and people how liked my mother for the work she did around town. Even though she worked spent time with us she still had time to help everyone else. She was the original super woman. Even at her deathbed she was thinking of Sasuke and me. She told Sasuke to listen to me from now on and that I had to stop yelling at him so much. Sasuke kept on asking if she was coming home with us…and she never answer him…I think she didn't want to tell him that she was dieing and I could tell that to. Her finally minutes on this world where almost up and we said that we lover her and she said that she loved us…and our mother finally answer Sasuke's question…she told him that she was sorry but this time she wasn't coming home with us. She asked that he could forgive her…and he did so. He last word where I'm sorry Sasuke…Itachi. The day she died I quit high school and got a job and started to take care of Sasuke…since I was his legal gardenia I was allowed to keep him…but I had to be checked up on by everyone and they still do that to us. But Sasuke knows everything now…every last thing that I know about our mother and father…the whole thing…he knows about it. Does that answer your questions Ms. Tsunade?"
"Yes…I understand everything about Sasuke Uchiha now…thanks you Itachi…" she answer in a sad voice.
"Alright I have to go home now. I have to go talk with Sasuke about what happened today. Goodnight Ms. Tsundae," he said as he left the room.
He left the office and then the school and was right back in his card heading towards his home. He finally reached his old apartment and opened the door to find Sasuke asleep in a ball on the floor right in front of the door. Itachi looked at Sasuke and smiled as he pulled out the note he was holding in him arms. He placed the note in his back pocket and slowly picked up Sasuke trying not to wake him up.
He put Sasuke in his bed and covered him with some blankets as he started to leave the room he hared something. He turned around and looked at Sasuke.
"I'm sorry Itachi…" Sasuke said in his sleep with a whispering voice.
