Sorry for the delay last week for those who didn't know I was grounded but hey like I promise here is chapter 9 hmmm the story is almost over... that make me sad.

(Ok I was grounded longer than I thought sheesh!)

Enjoy!

Recap:

Itachi was the first to see me awake. "Sakura you're awake"

I look around in the small room everyone was crowded around me except for him. Zetzu. I open my mouth but Itachi cut me off.

"Zetzu gave half of his life to save the twins, they are perfectly healthy Jenny is now taking care of them.

If you want you could see him since you are awake. He is in a another room. We are just waiting for him to wake up."

he looked at me with concern filling in his eyes.

I remember what Zetzsu told me in a dream. Is that what I should call it? A dream? I got out of my bed in silence and follow Itachi to Zetzu room.

We were walking down the long hallway kisame following us from behind. He stayed silent for some reason and it was starting to drive me mad.

I took a sharp turn around and came face to face with Kisame. "What is going on with you?" I yelled. He just stood there not saying anything. He turned his head away and look down to the ground.

I huffed at him and went back following Itachi. I don't know why I snapped at him like that. I should apologize to him afterward.

We stop at a white door it seem like forever but I took a breath and push the door opened and there I saw him, Zetzu, lying on the bed lifeless.

I never thought I would see him with all these tubes attach to him. I walk over to his bed and gently took his hand. It felt so cold and hard. I didn't know Itachi and Kisame left the room but I didn't care.

I tried to hold back the tears but soon I failed. I cried and cried. I wanted him to come back. I wanted him to be with me. I love him.

"Oh Zetzu" I could barely get any words out. "I know what you did. I know that you save our children but, why did you chose Hidan when they are yours? I don't understand. Zetzu please wake up. Please!"

I cried onto his hard chest. I didn't care if I get a headache from crying I just wanted him to wake up.

Open your eyes dammit Zetzu!

Please for me.

I felt an arm wrapped around me. "Sakura" I look up and saw Zetzu looking at me with a small smile. I was about to say something but he cut me off

"I want our children to live a wonderful life here with their amazing mother and a father but I won't be able to be there for them in body but by the mind and soul.

Hidan will take my place because I know he make a good replacement as their father not their biological father because he will never change that.

I love you Sakura why? Cause you are the most beautiful woman I've ever met and you gave me the most wonderful gift and it made me the luckiest man who ever lived and died.

Two healthy and beautiful children they should live long to inherit the legency of their mother and father. Thank you Sakura, my Cherry blossom, Keep Hidan out of trouble and raise our children to be well and strong."

He pulled me down for a last kiss and he smiled once again slowly closing his eyes than his body went limp.

I was frozen. Tears falling uncontrollably.

I didn't care if my voice was heard throughout the base. I let it all out.

Releasing all the agonizing pain and sadness for my lost love.

SOMEWHERE IN THE BASE...

Everyone was sitting down waiting for Sakura to come back but instead they heard a loud painful cry echoing around the base.

They all knew what it meant.

They couldn't save him, he was holding on for Sakura.

Deidara punched the wall so hard leaving a huge hole in it.

Kakuzu didn't care at the moment.

Tobi was quiet which was very rare.

Everyone else they were silent.

"Hidan"

Hidan flinched at the sound of Itachi calling his name everyone looked at him.

"yeah?" he stammered.

Itachi took a step closer making Hidan taking a step back. Hidan was starting to freak out.

"Why are you looking at me like that Itachi?" he quietly asked.

Itachi looked deep into his eyes yet his Sharigan was activated so he spoke in a dangerous tone that would make you want to die right at this moment.

"Hidan, if you ever put Sakura and Azashi and Mizuki in any danger you will be responsible for it, no, I will kill you with no mercy given is that understood?"

Hidan was paler than a ghost but he nodded his head as his answer.

Itachi and everyone left the room but Kisame.

Kisame just looked at Hidan in a funny way and than laugh. His laugh caused Hidan to jump from his shock.

"What the fuck just happen?" he asked. Kisame all but smile his toothy smile. He leaned forward and said still smiling

"You're playing the Dangerous game" he left the room laughing evilly leaving Hidan by himself alone with his fears.

MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
