A scream of pain was heard through the group of six. All exchanged looks and blinked.
"What was that?" The high pitched blonde boy said looking wide eyed.
"How the hell should we know? Lets get off our asses and find out." Sakura said running towards where the scream was.
"Hn." Sasuke said crossing his arms and walking calmly after her.
Naruto and Hinata nodded chasing after them.
Ino jumped on Shikamarus back, "Carry me." She demanded.
"Trouble-some." He said dashing after them.
Arriving to a clearing Sakura and Sasuke were the first ones there. Sakura looked down and saw the injured girl and she kneeled down and got a better look, she had long black hair and pitch black eyes that were filled with fear, it was clear she had just resently been beaten within an inch of her life. Sakura lifted the girls head considering, if their red raise the head if their pale raise the tail. Her face was very red. The girl flinched and moaned out in pain.
"Fuck.." Sakura muttered and attempted to heal some of the wounds, it worked but she was still pretty banged up.
Just then the rest ran up almost tripping over Sakura. "Watch it dobe!" Sasuke hissed under his breath.
"What teme you care if we run into Sakura?" Naruto spat back.
"No she has an injured girl in her lap want to kill her?" Sasuke said getting annoyed.
"Whats your name." Sakura asked looking at her.
The girl gasped and muttered out, "M-Marsi.." She managed coughing up a bit of blood. Sasuke heard her name and his eyes widened shocked. He blinked and shook the look off before anyone noticed.
"Who did this to you!" Naruto demanded looking worried.
"I-I don't know..they had us blindfolded the whole time..even now, I managed to get it off but..the person was gone." She said pausing to catch her breath. "T-the person had a deep voice I assume it was male..h-he told me to be a good pawn..I didn't understand..h-he said something about..b-being a..-" And she cut off coughing again her eyes starting to close.
"Be what!" Naruto again demanded.
"BAKA!" Sakura said slapping him. "She is injured very badly and you made her talk enough, we can ask her more when she is a bit better.." Sakura said glaring attempting to lift the girl but almost fell, considering she was lifting a girl the same body weight as her. Sasuke caught both the girls and carried Marsi bridal style.
"Thanks Uchiha." Sakura said emotionless and ran off towards the camp.
Sasuke rolled his eyes and walked back with Shikamaru who was carrying Ino. Naruto running ahead with hinata. Arriving Sasuke looked around and finally placed the girl in Sakura and his tent letting her sleep. A few hours later, Sakura was searching her bag when she heard the sleeping girl stur.
"Hey..Marsi..you okay?" Sakura asked leaning over pressing her hand to the girls shoulder when she was sure she was awake.
"H-huh? Y-yeah..where am I?" The shy raven haired girl asked.
