Chapter 11: Mission: No face man.

The weird incidence that had been occurring over the past couple weeks were beyond Sakura's understanding. Sasuke was growing distant like he knew the time was growing nearer for him to leave for good and Sakura to wait and dispel Oro from her lover's body. He wouldn't tell her now would he?

She sighed and made her way from her office and down the hallway. Another occurrence was the repeating curse markings that her Friend Tenten had suffered from many, many months ago. She turned checking in on a few patients then left walking down the steps of the hospitable and headed towards the outer village rim where she would hike up the mountain side to visit her least favorite patient. Seeing as he had no name and he was rather creepy she didn't like visiting him as much as the sick and dying.

Taking her time she reached the top of the Cliffside where three Anbu bowed their heads in respect and looked at her. She waved to them walking through the door and received a new clip board with all the latest check-ups and results from testing.

"Marta when was this last checked it like his fever hasn't died down at all…" Sakura said.

"This morning, I wasn't sure when you would be back to run another yourself." She said meekly. Sakura nodded and walked to the door and inside the room which was dark.

"How are you feeling today?" She asked still looking at the chart which feel to the ground as her body was slammed to the wall a tight hand around her throat.

"Obviously feeling better…" She chocked out grabbing the wrist as the man walked into the shadows wearing Sasuke's face. Her mind registered it wasn't him but her body hadn't so she wasn't resisting, how could she?

"Sakura?" The smooth voice said her ears burned…it sounded like him…

"Forgive me… I thought you were the nurse." He said releasing her throat. She rubbed her neck and took in a good amount of air.

"Why are you wearing his face?" She asked softly lest start the man again. Fighting a sick man wasn't on her to do list.

"It's the only one I remember…" he said lowly. She lowered her eyes. Perhapes seeing another man would make him feel better…or was she thinking that so he wouldn't be using Sasuke's face.

"You know he would be angry if he knew you were using it."

"He wont mind, it gives you comfort. The way he leaves you…alone… coming only when he wants to see you, never staying more then a night or two." The smooth voice was so real she started to believe it… wanted to…

"I wouldn't leave you… I would even stay in this form if it makes you happy." She blinked snapping out of the weird illusion of deception that had just been painted over her eyes.

"Change back." She said shortly hearing him moving in the darkness and flicked on the light seeing he had his bandages back on. She walked over to him now that he seemed to be normal, in a way that was normal for him. Setting the clip board down she reached for his wrist which lifted for her. She eyed him suspiciously then checked his pulse. His heart was beating slower then the previous week. This concerned her, yet he was still very active, perhaps a bigger room with more light and things for him to do would be good for his body.

"Is light still hurting you?" She asked the man shook his head. She flashed her flashlight into his face were his eyes would be seeing he didn't finch. She nodded stuffing the flashlight into her breast pocket again and looked at him pursing her lips.

"How about a room upgrade?" She asked with a small smile. Her mind now constantly running over what this man had said about Sasuke, the man nodded again. Sakura gave a nod picked up her clip board and walked to the door. "I will let you want unrestrained if you actually act civilized and not attack anyone." She said he nodded again. Together they walked out of solitary confinement to a room down the hallway.

This building was built to keep dangerous sick patients; children with large amounts of fake and dangerous Chakra are here until their chakra returns to their normal state. The room the no face was on now was the sunny side of the building over looking the village. A beautiful view when the sun was setting. The whole wall was a Chakra special glass that wouldn't break from the inside the outside was resistant put very possible to break. Sakura was hoping he wouldn't have anyone waiting out there for him.

She allowed him inside the room and nodded as he looked around.

"This is the nicest room we have available right now, so you can focus on getting well." She said

"Why…?" He asked lowly sitting on the bed.

"Why what?" she asked setting up the clipboard on the outside of the wall in its holder.

"Bother worrying about healing." He said her eyes softened. He maybe a man under strict watch but he was still a person. A person who didn't think he should live on.

"What was you purpose in the forest… when I first met you?" She asked sitting down in the closest chair. The man looked at her carefully though the bandages.

"I was there to kill Sasuke Uchiha. When I spotted you together however I figured the rumors about him being a murderer were all false and was on my way home when you caught me."

"You were impersonating him." She said he nodded but then shook his head.

"For such a pretty face you aren't all that bright."

…………………

Sakura stood slowly almost rigidly.

"Sakura?" The man asked she pressed her lips thinly into a smile and tilted her head as she looked at him

"Are you feeling ill?" He asked her slowly rigidly walk to the door was a little strange behavior for him to witness as she struggled to control her anger.

"I will come back to see you later." She gritted through her teeth. She pulled the door open and shut it behind her locking the door she walked robotically to the doorway where she went through the scanner to see if she was really who she was and left. Walking down the pathway she looked up at his room seeing him watching her walk down. She sighed turning around and walked down the several steps to the bottom.

Later that night was a first for a long time. She was able to have dinner with everyone she loved and knew, for it was Ino-pigs birthday! For once almost everyone was there for the celebration taking place on the huge open back lands to the back of the Nara's house hold.

"Hey forehead girl!" Ino said taking Sakura's arm and spun her around dancing with her a little twirling her around excitedly.

"Ino-pig happy birthday!" Sakura said laughing at her friend who spun around her and twirled Sakura who smiled and nodded trying to enjoy the fun.

"Is Sasuke coming?" She asked jumping around her and laughed wrapping her arm around her shoulders leading her deeper into the party handing her a drink.

"No he isn't exactly the Party animal type…" She trailed off looking around the group.

"I guess you are right but here is too hoping right!" She asked clanking her glass with hers then headed off into the party. Sakura shook her head taking a drink and spotted Hinita and Naruto talking with Shikamaru. They were off to the side so Shikamaru was smoking, Sakura smiled as Hinita excused herself quietly and headed over in Sakura's direction.

"How are you feeling?" Sakura asked taking another drink.

"Much better Sakura thank you," Sakura nodded and clapped her shoulder. "Good will you be starting missions again?" Sakura asked Hinita nodded.

"I will be filling in for Shikamaru first he will leaving for the time. Ino isn't pleased but she can't help it, I hear she is going to be helping out in the hospitable." Sakura looked over at Ino who was laughing with a few friends.

"I didn't hear about this, hmn perhaps I should talk with Tsunade I haven't been with her for a while now." Hinita nodded and pointed to Tsunade laughing loudly with Ero-sensei they had already reached their drinking limits and were quite happy with their rosy cheeks and drinks spilling as they rocked together side to side.

"Perhaps when she is decent?" Sakura asked Hinita giggled and nodded. Sakura moved away from Hinita who moved through the group.

"Sakura your looking a little stressed tonight, is there something on your mind?" Kakashi asked she looked up seeing her old sensei and smiled. Although he had aged, not much about him has changed. Really the man was never going to look different to her, not until he or she died.

"It is nothing, I am concerned about what has been going on though… with everything I feel a little out of the loop now…" She said lowly hopping up onto the small wall. He leaned against it nodding. He crossed his arms across his chest and looked at her as she stared at the people.

She looked tired and worried about something, could it be Sasuke? He wondered.

"Have you found Sasuke again?" He asked she looked down surprised. He didn't know?

"Kakashi you didn't know that I-"

"There you Kakashi you need to come meet someone!" Ino called Kakashi pushed from the wall but stopped from turning towards Sakura.

"We will catch up another time?" He asked she sighed and nodded smiling. He nodded clapping her shoulder and walked towards Ino who had called him and introduced him to a tall and slender woman. Sakura chuckled as he lead her towards the table of drinks.

"You know I think her feelings will be hurt if you just sit over here all alone." A voice said from the side. She looked over at Lee who winked at her and hopped up beside her.

"Yeah, I don't think she really notices that I am here other then when I walk through those gates. It is hard to say really, but I secretly think my best friend is… well A.D.D it would explain a lot." Lee chuckled and nodded.

"Well I suppose I will sit with you till the party really dies down, that way incase she does notice you won't look like you aren't enjoying!" He said she gave a real smile and nodded. That was her good old Lee.

When the party died down everyone decided it was time to go home. Sakura walked down the rode walking up her stairs and into her bed room. She unlocked her door and walked inside flipping on the lights looking over the room the flipped them off. She walked slowly her head spinning but she was still movable, and in the case of an emergency would be able to snap right out of her fog. When the bedroom was undisturbed she sighed and walked back into the kitchen and poured herself another glass of wine lighting a candle she blew the match out and sipped at her wine while sitting on her couch.

She drank till she fell asleep, and didn't wake till noon the fallowing noon, to the sound of knocking, more like pounding on her door. She staggered to the door ever light blinding her tired eyes as she opened it looking at Shikamaru who grinned and raised a brow.

"Sleep well?" He asked. She opened the door wider and looked at him fully dressed in him mission clothes and looked back to his face.

"That's right missy get dressed, we found those men, who we thought were targeting you?" He asked her eyes flickered with recognition and she flew into her house leaving the door open. Shikamaru walked inside shutting the door behind him and waited at the entrance while she loudly fumbled around with her clothes and gear.

With several loud thuds he raised a brow seeing her appear from her room smoothing her vest and stood upright. "Ready?" He asked she nodded and walked towards him. He opened the door eyeing the wine bottle empty of contents and one wine glass. He looked at Sakura who grabbed her forehead protector and lead the way with Shikamaru.

"Okay so essentially we figured they were after you, but what seems to be everything pointing to you isn't really at you but…"

"Sasuke?" Sakura yelled over the distance they were. Shikamaru nodded and Lee leapt from above. "So when we found out that everyone including us is and has been out looking for him for a long time now, the thing about it is Sasuke didn't want to be found for a long time!" Shikamaru yelled.

"Well we just had to Find Oro it wasn't exactly Sasuke's idea to continue to change every lair there was right?" A new voice called Sakura looked about seeing it was Tenten who was then joined by Neji and Kiba.

"We think that Oro might have big plans with Sasuke's body yes, but who will be in control if and when it happens?"

Sasuke will be Sakura thought looking at everyone then missed her branch and fell down to the bottom swinging back up. His perfect face was distracting her, she sighed and paid attention to what was being said.

"Ino was explaining this to me the other day, she says when there are two people in a mind and they are equal. The mind wont be able to tell what is up and what is down, there for if everyone gets their hands on him then…"

"They will have control over the body." Shikamaru nodded.

"That doesn't sound like a good idea!" Lee called Shikamaru laughed and shook his head.

"I didn't think so either, that makes me think that maybe that is why Sasuke hasn't been around more then a few days at a time, if he knew or thinks that someone other the Oro then perhaps he thinks Sakura is in danger." Sakura huffed. That wasn't why he wasn't here Sasuke wasn't about to listen to anyone let alone do something to protect her like that. He also better know that Sakura was fully capable of defending herself.

Sakura sped up as they raced further into the forest towards the village where the men and the leader was.

End the end the lead wasn't all that helpful, they returned empty handed again. Sakura made her way though the hallways of the hospitable doing the quick check-ups then back to her home.

She walked inside and went straight to the bedroom. She undressed and got dressed into her night clothes then put her things away meticulously. The last piece was put into place and she walked back towards the bed where she plopped down onto it and sighed flopping to the pillow she closed her eyes. The information rolled around in her head like a storm of powerful tornados switching thoughts with emotions and information with lies. She sighed and tried to sleep which in her exhausted state came quickly.

Smooth hands ran over Sakura's skin barely touching almost like a breath of air on her skin. Sakura rolled away from the touch but it continued up and over her shoulder under her chin and down her stomach to her pant line. The cool breath fallowing the hand print which slowly started to lower the thin shorts

Sakura sat straight up gasping for air looking around her room in a panic. She remembered to breath and looked at the open window and pulled the covers away from her body seeing the goose bumps all over her body and huddled her arms together. She walked over to the window and shut it locking it. Even Sasuke wasn't getting back in. If he is going to leave without saying good-bye then he deserved it. She crawled back into the bed and leaned against the wall pulling the covers around her.

That wasn't Sasuke's touch… to soft for him…
