Chapter 2
Inequity
"When I was in love there was somebody in the world who was more important than me, and that, given all that happened at the fall of man, is a miracle, like something God forgot to curse."
― Donald Miller

Ino screamed... And we all rushed in...
She was there on the bed... covered with the white cloth...
she was alive... just alive...
Her face was cadaverous, disoriented with scratches, bleeds and bandages... She was on ventilator... a small mask over her nose was easing her breadth.
We were shin obis, injuries, life through death- we have seen them all, but she has gone through this episode first time and she may not ever
I moved to Ino... She didn't said a word... she was relief, that Sakura is alive but tensed that she is still not stable, I kept a consoling hand on her shoulder, she didn't respected my confrontation...
Naruto's eyes... were unfocused his camaraderie was hurt... Yet we all were quite and thankful she has reached our warmness again... after a tint of silence Matsuri spoke...
"It's the whole report on how we got Sakura and her medical conditions and for now, she is not out of danger so it would be advisable that we talk about the whole issue in office, and not to go near her, her body is too sensitive and reactive to external agencies" Her voice was low and formal... she didn't know how to express the things without intervening her own emotions.
Kakashi silently nodded and we escaped... I gave a last glance to a limp boy and then toward my team-mate Ino, she didn't want to leave, she was her friend, her best friend... she just can't bear and Naruto- he was going through the same emotion and Sai who was taught to be emotionless was doing a great job of hiding his emotion but we all our hurt because when we require her as a doctor, a friend, a teammate, leader... She was there and when she required us to fight Akatsuki... we wasn't with her... we can't get her... none of us forgot her but her importance and now it just got back to us.
I pulled Ino out... even with her restriction and thank goodness Naruto was easy enough.

we all have assembled again in the Kazekage office, Silent and stunned.
Matsuri greeted our presence and started her story in the low tone... Her eyes were restricted on the file she has.
"Well this all started 2 months before when few Suna shinobi were interfered with the presence of Sasuke and Sakura, it was our first meeting with the Akatsuki and we gained information such as they have been something up to, and Suna was a part of it and Sakura was no longer carry her chakra- that was sealed..."
"Wait... Sakura is no longer a Shinobi" It was Naruto and I knew the moment she said that; they all have been flash back of her presence at their mission and her medical power.
She didn't answer just silently nodded. After a pause she started again.
"We have started training our army as we have guessed, this won't be there only appearance and then by our spies, we were confirmed of their presence and when their location was confirmed we announced for the war, one night before war, Sasuke was found to be theft a scroll- Mamoru Shi-rodu.
Then when we attacked the hideout, it was already evacuated and there we got a letter from Sakura, which told the plot about Akatsuki to grab life-stone Jeremejevite and that- she was Pregnant."
She waited for someone to react but no one did respond...
They all were blank; it was Kakashi who interrupted the silence-"Was it consensual?"
We all hoped it to be a yes... but when have been our way...
"No, she was raped... By Uchiha Sasuke"
More than anyone Naruto was hurt, Kakashi somewhere had an idea, but still he looked fallen back and then my eyes again shifted to my icy Barbie teammate, famous for her unexpected cantankerous behavior, was flowing down tears...
"We were able to catch Akatsuki, and won the face off, and we got Sakura safe in our arms, but the tunnel broke down to water and debris and she got off our hand and then when situation came normal... We found her almost dead, Katana has pierced her stomach and her lungs were filled with water and Sasuke, Zetsu and Madara went away"
she waited but no one spoke... well, what was there to say.
"She was given strict medical attention, her injuries are healed but her brain is affected. She has been derived 3 times in coma in the last 24 hours and was kept on constant ventilation and the most miraculous thing is her child is safe and sound but she might not able to survive, if in other 24 hour she came out of coma... she might not survive. Due to unstable condition, her mind was made to be read and we got the details of her experience and few more details about her and Akatsuki from her mind and this is it... this is the report" she forward the file to Kakashi, which he took silently took.
"It is not possible, something is wrong, Sasuke can't do this to Sakura, we can't just accept the facts, and they are vague until Sakura clarifies it. Naruto outburst, taking side of Sasuke,
But before Kakashi asks him to stop, I show the movement of Ino, there were a flicker in her eye, anger...she moved to him and she did something unexpected... 'PANG' there was imprints of her palm, across his face; she slapped her hard and screamed the top of her voice.
"You are dumb, you are just a big ##### #####, things are in front of you and yet you want to make him a holy saint..."
"Ino..." I tried to stop her, but like if it was anywhere any help.
"No, Shikamaru, not this time... because not only he, you are also responsible for her condition, he wants' to fight you, he wants to lose you and in a way he took the advantage of Sakura in that and still you say, he has to take nothing for it... Sasuke and you both are responsible"
Naruto was shocked with Ino's reply... Ino's tears and anger at same time, not good for anyone.
"You guys know not even a bit about her... Your team was always of you two; you never ever even realize she was an equal member. Becoming a ninja wasn't her decision but of her clan... she was forced to be with you guys and then at 13, she was asked by her clan that she can switch off... she didn't, she didn't because of you, she knew if she left, you'll again be all lonely and she called you guys friend and that all she is replied back... she is in that condition because she called you a friend..."
"Ino you are going just too far just drop it" I tried to swank over... and I was succeeded, she stopped and ran outside the room but before
"You know what it would have been a lot wise, if he was never put on your team and if something happened to her... no one else but you will be responsible" and she flanked out...
Leaving Naruto motionless body, I knew it has stabbed him hard... Ino was right and sometime or the other they must have been told of these things but this was never the way or the time.


It was 10 pm...
Things have still been upset after Ino's speech, and after all of this Sakura are still in danger, Shikamaru was going through the report while Sai is dropping the news to Hokage and informing her, her presence is needed as a doctor. Naruto still is with his quite inequity while Ino is outside the Sakura room.
There she was, sitting on the bench outside, joining her hands and her lips moved in the inaudible payer. I reached her and took a seat silently, she took my appearance well.
I forward her a coffee, which she took silently... She was claimed after her outburst.
"She'll be fine"
I gave a simple statement sipping my coffee.
"Hope so" her voice was inaudible, I could just read her lips.
"She had always been strong, although sensitive but a fighter"
She didn't said anything.
"Things have gone too much extreme in the Kazekage office." she wanted to know my position on the stand.
"May be but I think it was required."
"You knew?" she was shocked by my answer.
"Yes" I answered truthfully.
"Then why?" She gave me a disappointed look.
"Because, she need to make her position herself, choices and decision were her and the impact would also be claimed by he"
She didn't said anything just looked at me stunned...
and then she looked down giving in more tears... "She is not the only one, whom her choices have affected"
I said politely and forward my shoulder to the little girl to cry...


Naruto, Shikamaru, Ino, Kakashi, Sai, Matsuri and I all were outside... tensed. Sakura got a panic attack, worsening her situation.
Open-heart surgery was going on inside... But they couldn't just follow things well, Tsunade was on her way, but time is very less...
With the tension, there was distance, Shikamaru told me of the Outburst in Gaara's room and I even got news from Gaara.
We all were praying and waiting... then a doctor came from the operation theatre and we all surrounded him.
"Doctor, what is the progress..."
it was Kakashi.
"Not good, I don't think she could make it, we are doubtful that even Tsunade-Sama could do something and it's yet her to arrive, if believe in miracle, then it would be the only reason of her survival"
And a nurse came by...
"Nurse, give me this injection and prepare for 2-4 D fexofenadine" he took the tray and rushed inside...
If something happened to her it will all be Inequity.

Chhooke Hamare Dil Ko Kahan Gaya Usse Doondo
Where did he vanished, touching our hearts
