Sakura Blossoms and Snakes chapter 11!
Here it is
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or anything that is not mine that I may happen to add into this story. If I did own Naruto it would have been discontinued due to the fact I cant draw to save my life.
As I was writing this I realized I spelled Deidara's name wrong in the last chapter. I am such a freak. SORRY!
Naruto was pacing the clearing where less than three minutes ago his former pink, haired teammate was. He growled out in frustration. "We have to go get her! We may never have a chance like this again!" Jiriaya put a comforting hand on Naruto's shoulder and gave him a sly smile. "We will see her again soon enough. While she was unconscious, I put a tracking device on her. We will go back to Konoha to get back up then we will get Sakura back." With that he leaned against a tree and fell asleep. Naruto stood for a moment more than followed his sensei's example and went to sleep as well. It would be a long day tomorrow.
Sakura's eyes fluttered open as she took in her surroundings. She saw trees pass by her at impossible speeds and the smell of clay and grass was overwhelming her senses. She looked up to meet cerulean eyes and a gentle smile. "I see you're awake, yeah." Sakura just yawned and snuggled more into Deidara's arms. She closed her eyes preparing to go to sleep again when she heard Kisame yell. "Holy Mother of Crap! Sakura look at you fucking leg!" Sakura knew that Kisame was freaked out by something on her leg because Kisame was not a curser that was Hidan's job in their family. She looked down at her leg and gasped. The gash that the Nin had dealt with his kunai a while ago had a purplish puss foaming out of it, and her entire leg was swollen and had a purple tint to it. Sakura used to dealing with poisonous infections, what with Sasori the master of poisons, knew that this wasn't good, at all. If she didn't treat it soon she may loose her leg, or in the worst scenario, loose her life. Medic side of her started taking over and she was shouting orders at the men around her. They had stopped moving when Kisame had shouted and where now all huddled around Sakura, worry clearly painted on all of their faces.
"Kisame, I need water a lot of it. Deidara, we need to find somewhere dry. Sasori I need you to take care of Itachi, I think he's hyperventilating." They all nodded, except Itachi who looked like he was going to pass out any second. Deidara dropped to the forest floor and set Sakura down on a large, smooth rock near a stream. Kisame produced a basin of water, and Itachi used his fire jutsu to boil the water to make it sterile. Sakura immediately went to work on cleansing the wound, tearing a piece of her cloak off and using it to cover the open wound when it was cleaned. She did a quick chakra scan of her body to see how far the poison had spread. She closed her eyes in concentration in putting a chakra seal on the main arteries leading into the heart so the poison wouldn't spread too far into her body. She then worked on getting a sample amount of poison out so she could figure out the antidote. Sasori walked over and held out a vial so she could put the poison into it. She did and he tried to help by discovering which poison it is. Sasori was drawing a blank, as was Sakura. She gave him a worried glance and he returned it with one of his own.
"Sakura I am sorry, I can't identify the poison. I don't know what it is." He looked at her mournfully, while he wasn't able to identify the poison he knew that it was a strong poison. It was designed to tear apart chakra passageways, destroy nerve and muscle tissue, and cause death, from the looks of it a long and painful one. Sakura just nodded her head slowly, a thoughtful look on her face. "We need to get to base; fast or else it may be too late." She said the last part quietly so only Sasori could here. He lifted Sakura up and carried her bridal-style to the others. "Let's go. I will not wait on any of you, so keep up." At that he jumped up onto the branches and ran towards their base in sound, praying that Sakura would make it.
Naruto arrived in Konoha at record time. "Baa-chan! I'm back!" Naruto yelled while busting through Tsunade's office door. "Brat, how many times do I have to tell you to knock?" She yelled at him while bashing him on the head in the same manner that Sakura had. "No time granny! We need to put a group together so we can rescue Sakura-chan!" "What the hell is he talking about Jiriaya?" "During the mission we encountered Sakura. She wasn't hostile towards us and in fact helped Naruto defeat three anbu level Nins. I believe that we may be able to rescue her from the Akatsuki." "Wait, Sakura has joined the Akatsuki? That could cause major issues if the elders found out. We must keep this between the four of us, understood?" They all nodded. "Good. You two get some rest and I will put together a squad for the mission. In the meantime rest and train, you will need to be at the best of your abilities if you wish to rescue Sakura. Dismissed!" The two left the building, each having different things in mind.
Tsunade sighed loudly and grabbed a bottle of sake from her bottom drawer. "This girl is the cause of my headaches, and I don't even know her." She took a long drink from the bottle and shouted for Shizune to cancel her meetings for the evening.
As always review and stuff thanks bye!
