Shuffling down a hallway Sasuke sighed and held onto his side in slight pain. He had been stuck in his room for the past week and needed a change of scenery. As he continued to shuffle slowly he caught the sound of a loud conversation in one of his meeting rooms.

"But... Your Highness there isn't enough land for all of us. We're all over populated and it's getting to the point that we have to find more land. The Heart Kingdom has plenty of unused land!" A voice argued with what Sasuke guessed was Sakura.

Then he heard her speak. It kinda of shocked him on how authoritative and sure of herself she sounded. "If that is the case then when starting a war, we are all civilized people are we not?" She asked and paused for a moment. Waiting until she started to speak again Sasuke moved slowly towards the room. "There is no reason for this to end in war. How many lives were just lost because you all seemed to get power-hungry?" She paused again. It was then that Sasuke decided to make an appearance in the room and pushed on the door.

"Sasuke! What are you doing out of bed!" Sakura squeaked as the room turned towards him.

"Hn." He grunted before sitting down at an empty chair in the back of the room. He was relieved to sit down finally seeing how he had traveled nearly the entire hall from his room down to the throne room and meeting rooms.

"Sasuke you're going to pull those stitches if you don't take it easy." She snapped.

"Continue with you meeting... I'm quite intrigued."

Sakura frowned but turned back to the group of men and women sitting at the table in front of her. "War is not the answer to this. Clearly you must be mistaken. I have looked over all the records of the Heart Kingdom and that unused land you speak of isn't mentioned in any of those reports." She said returning back to the matter at hand.

"But surely it is! There in the north-western section of the kingdom is an unused plot of land that's probably big as this palace!" The woman on her left said. Sasuke sucked in a breath and frowned he knew which plot of land they were speaking of. "It's gated but still that land is being unused why can't we get a plot of it."

"You ignorant fools!" Sasuke said standing with a little help from the chair.

Sakura turned quickly at the sound of Sasuke voice and pushed him back into the chair. "Sit down." She snapped as she glanced down at his torso. She then turned her head and glared at the woman who spoke of the land.

After Sakura's long extentsive search through the Heart records she knew exactly what the land she was being told of was for. "That land is were half of the Heart family is laid to rest. If you have forgotten the war that happened between the Red Queen and the Queen of Wonderland. There were thousands of lives lost in this palace." Sakura snapped at the woman who seemed to jerk slightly at what she was told.

"Teme! Teme! Teme!" a blond head bounced around the room until a pencil came flying at him in high-speed. "Yeesh... The one time I come to make sure all right you throw things at me..."

Sakura smiled slightly as she peeled away the bandaged she wrapped over Sasuke's torso. "Sasuke-san is just very... grouchy at the moment... I did kinda just wake him up..." Sakura murmured with a small smile as she looked up at him through her bangs she could feel the heated glare against her before she even looked up. "Which I apologize for but I had to change these." She sighed.

The King only grunted before turning his glare to the hyperactive blond. "Stop." He snapped finally sick of watching the man bounce.

"But Temeeeeeee!" Naruto whined as he came to a stop mid-bounce. He pouted and sat down in the only other chair in the room and glared out the window.

Sakura giggled quietly and inspected the now healing wound. "Is he always like this?"

"Yes."

"Teme!"

"Hn."

Sakura shook her head as she watched the two argue. "Boys." She said as their argument got louder and almost physical until Sakura pushed Sasuke back into the bed. She scolded them both before telling Naruto to leave.

"You didn't have to." Sasuke mumbled a few minutes later as Sakura collected her supplies.

"Sure I did. You need your rest."

"I meant earlier... About the cemetery... You didn't have to defend it..." Sasuke said clarifying what he was talking about. He felt kinda bad as he watched Sakura's face drop and how her mood suddenly changed from light-hearted to down right nasty.

She dropped the supplies off in the bin she had found in the infirmary closet and suddenly came face to face the King. "Regardless whether you should have been in there or not I was going to defend it." She snapped. "If I didn't end up getting kidnapped to here you probably would be dead by now."

The king looked at her surprised at what she said and frowned. "Out." He ordered.

"Fine." Sakura snapped again then left slamming the heavy door on her way out.

She paced around for hours going between the emotions of angry and upset and worried for the rest of the day. She felt kinda bad that she had slammed the door and probably cause him a little pain from the force. She had felt the vibration when she stood to get her emotions in check.

Already half decided to go back and apologize for being rude like she was Sakura changed her mind halfway down the hall and pretty much told herself screw him. He had kidnapped her into his world and she was stuck doing his job until he was better.

Frowning as Itachi entered the hallway and watched her pace he finally stopped her and shook his head. "My foolish little brother says and does things he doesn't mean to." Itachi murmured before pushing her towards the room. "He pushes people away because he's afraid to get hurt."
