DDDD: Bear with me – it's a result of reading the newest chapter. Ferserious. I kept hitting my Sasuke plushie against the desk because he wasn't doing anything to stop this NaruSaku shit coming on. (Please don't flame me!)

hour i
"Listen calmly! Tsunade's been dismissed as Hokage!" Kiba yells, and every single one's faces are shocked. "The sixth Hokage is some guy named Danzou! I don't know anything about him – but he seems shady!" He yells, because it's frightening. "That's not all! Dammit, I have a bad feeling about this. Worst of all, Danzou has given to annihilate Uchiha Sasuke on site – due to the fact that he is missing-nin!"
Naruto freezes, and so does Sakura.
hour ii
"Tell us everything you know about Uchiha Sasuke – he seems friendly enough with you, right?" A Kumogakure ninja sticks a sword towards Sakura's neck, and everyone looks at them.
Naruto takes action right away, drawing the sword away from Sakura's neck with his kunai. Sai takes action, too, protecting Sakura.
Naruto clamps his hands onto the sword, and immediately after, Sakura and Sai are going to attack. Sakura is kicked away, and she can hear Naruto call her name as she flies away from the kick. Naruto and Sai are at her side in a second.
"What the hell are you doing!?" Naruto screams, looking enraged.
Sakura realizes they're Kumogakure ninjas. They have no reason to be here – so why are they here demanding information about Sasuke? "You were talking about Sasuke! Tell us about him!"
Sakura speaks to them for the first time. "What does it have to with you!"
"Everything! Uchiha Sasuke attacked our village and took our master!" The boy screams, pointing an accusing finger at them. Sakura and Naruto are taken back by this information. Why the hell would Sasuke do that?
"That missing-nin took out master! We don't even know if he's dead or alive!" The female one, Karui, screams at them.
"No way!" Sakura screams in defense. "Why would Sasuke do that?"
"How the hell should we know what the hell Akatsuki wants!" The male one screams again.
"Akatsuki? What do you mean?" Naruto asks, dumbfounded.
The Kumogakure ninjas look taken back. "You mean you don't know? Sasuke's part of the Akatsuki! We saw him with the Akatsuki cloak – he's a member now!"
hour iii
"Konohagakure is no more."
"What do you mean?" Karin screams.
Zetsu appears. He gives them information that Danzou is the new Hokage. "Danzou… is the Hokage…?"
Tobi nods, the only visible eye fixated on Team Hebi. "That's right. He's one of the elders who drove your brother to do what he did. And now he's the new Hokage."
"What the hell happened in Konoha?"
Tobi proceeds in explaining the whole commotion with Pein. "But now, you and him have caused such commotion – the five Kages are moving." Sasuke's face darkens.
"They're holding a meeting," Zetsu informs them.
Sasuke is changing his plans and is now going to the Kage Summit to destroy the man named Danzou.
hour iv
"God, you're so annoying!" Karui screams, infuriated by Sakura's defenses and denials. "What is Sasuke to you anyways?"
I… I… Sakura starts crying.
A verbal fight ensues about Sasuke and issues and such. (a/n: It's… boring to copy texts from the manga. Seriously. Have you ever tried copying text from a manga?) Sai defends Sasuke, and Sakura continues to cry.
Naruto starts talking about hosts, and how he might be alive because it takes time before they extract the demon from the host.
"I'll help you." Naruto finally decides. "I'll tell you everything I know about Akatsuki and I'll help you find your master."
Karui is enlightened. "You're smarter than you look, blondie! You have to tell us about Sasuke, too."
Sakura snaps her head up. "Naruto!"
But Naruto has made a decision. He's not ratting Sasuke out, but getting beat up because of it. "Leave it to me, Sakura,"
hour v
After getting bandaged up from his beat-up, and saved by Sai – Naruto departs for the Kage Summit, hoping to change someone's mind about killing Uchiha Sasuke.
hour vi
"Alright! That kid right there wants to speak to me? Spit it out!"
Naruto's heart is pounding furiously. His eyes are determined and he clenches his fists before speaking, "I want you to stop Uchiha Sasuke's execution."
Karui and the male Kumo ninja protest about how he came all this way for that and how he never gives up when it comes to Sasuke. The Kumo leader's bodyguards mutter disbelieving comments about Naruto.
"I know it's a lot to ask! But I've got to try…" Naruto protests, shutting his eyes tightly. "Sasuke is my friend, and I can't stand to sit back and watch him get killed! I don't want any of this – Sasuke being the cause of war between Konoha and Kumo! I don't want either of us getting caught up in revenge!"
He thinks he's listening to nonsense. "Let's go."
But Naruto doesn't give up. He gets on his knees and talks about how revenge consumed Sasuke.
The Kumo leader speaks again. "I will kill Sasuke. It's your job to make sure it stops from there."
Naruto has failed.
hour vii
"Naruto really loves you." Sai tells Sakura, and Sakura is staring at him. "You're causing him as much pain as Sasuke is."
Sakura starts crying.
Shizune butts in. "Naruto is doing all of this for the sake of Sakura's promise, but as well as his own desire! He wants Sasuke back as much as Sakura does – if not more!"
Shikamaru pops in and asks for consent on having to kill Sasuke or else the five Shinobi villages will ensue with war.
Sakura comes to a decision, and she sets off to the Hokage Summit.
-
In the same hour, Zetsu appears in the middle of the meeting and tells the Kages that Uchiha Sasuke is somewhere here.
(end of real manga – it's fanfiction from here on)
hour viii
"Found him!" The leader of Kumo screams, and Sasuke snaps his head towards the Kages.
The same things are rushing through Suigetsu, Juugo and Karin's heads – oh. shit.
-
Sai and Sakura arrive at the Kage Summit – in the rocks behind the building where the meeting is held.
hour ix
And when Sakura and Sai burst through that door, what they saw was blood. Lots of it. Karin was frantically trying to get Sasuke to muster up enough strength to bite her, Juugo was doing whatever he could and Suigetsu was trying to fight the minions.
Sakura and Sai – Sakura leading – was trudging through the flock of Kages and bodyguards to get to Sasuke. When she got there, his eyes were half-lidded.
The Kages stared at the duo for a second, before the Kumo Leader started yelling, "What the hell are you doing?!"
Her head snapped to him. "What the hell does it look like I'm doing? I'm a certified medic-nin; I think it's appropriate if I heal him." the pinkette turned to the red-haired woman at his side. She didn't ask any questions – saving Sasuke's life was top priority right now. "Move, redhead – or whatever your name is."
Karin's anger flared again, but Juugo gave her a pat on her shoulder. She calmed down.
"What are you doing? He's supposed to die!"
Sakura ignored him completely while Sai tried to stop them from attacking along with Karin, Suigetsu and Juugo.
"…Sakura…?" While green emitted from her palms, Sasuke scarcely began to recognize the pink head.
"Shush," Sakura hushed. "You're killing yourself."
He silenced, and the warmth of the green chakra kept emitting from her palm. He closed his eyes, savouring the feeling. All his wounds had mended so that there was a light layer of skin covering it – and the blood would not spill about anymore.
Sakura had saved Sasuke, and now he was getting brought back to Konoha – for he is too weak to actually fight against.
hour x
They were back in Konoha. Everything was settled, and the Kages had come to an agreement (somewhat) that Sasuke was to be not allowed outside of Konoha for three years. After almost causing world war, this was an outrageous decision – but Konoha had decided it.
"Sasuke-kun," Sakura smiled, coming in his hospital room.
When she looked around again, after closing the door, she noticed a vase full of flowers. Her eyes softened – they were probably from the girl on his team. His teammates were admitted into Konoha – but having to restart from graduating Academy.
"How are you feeling today?" Sakura asked, looking down at her chart.
Sasuke shrugged. "Fine,"
Sakura nodded and asked him more questions about his health, how he was feeling – and with lots, lots and lots of patience, got a decent, detailed report on how his body was doing.
She eyed the flowers again. "Your… teammate was here, right? What's her name again…" she put a finger to her chin. "Karin?"
He nodded.
Sakura put on a bright face again. "Hey, Sasuke-kun," she wondered aloud. "Are you involved with her?"
Sasuke almost choked on his own spit.
"No."
Sakura looked over at him – he looked like he was going to cough up a storm. "Huh? Oh, really?"
A long shot of silence followed then—
"Are you involved with Naruto?"
Sakura looked over at him, her eyebrows raised so high and her green eyes sparkling with amusement. "No ~ The idiot loves me… Sai told me. But I'd much rather see him get together with Hinata-chan,"
Sasuke looked at her eyes. They sparkled with… such intense emotion.
"Why?"
His question surprised her. Actually, that was an understatement. His question baffled her. "Why? …Uh, Sasuke-kun, what kind of question is that? Hinata-chan's always loved Naruto. Plus, I can't love someone whom I've liked all these years as a brother just because Sai tells me he loves me."
Sasuke looked at her again. Really looked at her.
"I…do you love anybody?"
Sakura was baffled once again by his questions. Her eyes darkened, and they lowered slowly to the floor. "I do. Do I? I think so…"
Sharingan flashed. "Who is it?"
Sakura gave him a tender smile, reaching up to caress his face. Her eyes brimmed with tears. "You."
With that, he took her soft face in his hands and captured her plump lips with his teeth.
a/n: Wow. This got a bit too long… O____o I hope you like it, though. Think of it as a rant for the recent manga chapter. I hate NaruSaku, and that's why I am part of the Anti-NaruSaku FC on NF. Don't flame me – i`m a SasuSaku fan, what do you expect? Review for the sake of SasuSaku!
Unrelated Question:
1 – Still have faith in SasuSaku?
2 – And were you surprised when Ino cried for Sasuke? (I'll tell you I was like, Ino, STFU. Because I thought Kishi would be man enough to get Ino to get over her useless feelings for Sasuke.
