Sakura was awakened by the feeling of smooth scales against her skin. Slowly blinking her eyes opened, she was greeted by the sight of a large snake. It hissed at her, then slithered away. Following its movements, her gaze landed on a limp looking body lying in a pool of blood. Glancing a few feet away, she saw another body in similar condition. Both appeared to be male.
A snake; blood; two bodies, both male…
Her mind made the connection and she jumped to her feet, rushing over to the first body's side.
She remembered now. In a moment of bad judgement, she had split from her team and gone after Sasuke on her own. She had found him, along with someone else.
"Should I take care of her?" Itachi had asked, moving behind Sakura faster than she could blink.
Sasuke had shaken his head, saying he would do it himself. Itachi had moved away, his brother appearing in his place.
"Keep your eyes closed, because this is gonna hurt," he had whispered, breath tickling her ear. Then a sharp pain had run through her body, and she had been encased in blackness.
Now she was awake, and praying Sasuke hadn't been killed.
Sure enough, the body was his. Panicked, Sakura flipped him onto his back, checking the spot where most of the blood was coming from. As she did so, he let out a grunt of pain, relieving her fear of him being dead.
Placing her hands over his heart, she slowly began to heal the wounds that lay there.
