CHAPTER 12
- Want to find her -
SASUKE'S P.O.V
I must have fallen asleep; I don't recall much anything up until now. I guess when you're in my condition you still can't tell the difference between unconscious and conscious.
While I've been laying here all numb I've had a lot of time think about and I have come to a conclusion that my body has nothing to do with my state. It has to a drug of some sort so I must be in a hospital.
Having been laying here I've been trying to move my fingers and so far only my little finger has been able to do some twitching. It's getting frustrating because my mind is filled with thought of gaining full control of my body to be able to go after Pinky and find her. It's killing me not to be able to do anything. My brains are constantly nagging at me to something even just yell because the more time I spend like this the more in danger Sakura is.
To be honest, I've never ever care for someone like this, maybe my mom and Naruto but I girl from my school; never. I just don't know what it is about the Pinky why she creates these thing inside me, maybe it's because she's so vulnerable and fragile... I don't know.
Sometimes I wish I could shrink her to the size of my thumb and hide her in my pocket so that she would be safe. I almost told my thoughts to Naruto but luckily backed away from the thought.
Maybe Naruto is right.. Maybe I have a crush on her and that's why I'm reacting the way I am.
Again I try moving my fingers and to my surprise I can almost make a fist! My happy thoughts were interrupted by a yell that sounded really far away but still so close, "Look! He's moving his fingers!" That's definitely Naruto. No one else is as loud as him.
Suddenly I fell a hand on my head petting me and a female voice I recognize everywhere, "Sasuke-honey, are you awake?" My mom.
It seems that the drugs are wearing out and my body is coming around. Unfortunately it doesn't feel as nice I would have it liked to feel. My head began hurting more and more by every passing second and I literally felt like my whole right side is crushed.
I inhale deeply and fast as I reaction for the upcoming pain. This isn't the best feeling in the world at all.
The more I began regaining control and consciousness I decided to try and open my eyes. They felt heavy but I forced them open and was blinded by a bright light coming straight to my face, maybe this wasn't a good idea either. I blinked few times and my eyes slowly started to adjust to the light. The first thing aside from the light I noticed a black lump forming to my left. The more I squinted the more it got shape and I could tell the difference between hair and face. Furrowing my brows I then realized it was my mom and she was still petting my head, and it felt good...
My attention was caught by her facial expression; she looked so distressed and tired. I have never seen her like this. Normally she looks over 10 years younger than someone of her age should look but now she looks even more older than she really is. Her brows a furrowed because of concern and her eyes look like she had been crying for hours. I couldn't help the lump forming in my throat as I tried to swallow. Was she this worried about me?
I groaned as I tried to my a little and my mom stopped me by putting her other hand on my chest saying,"Don't move." She forbid me and continued, "Naruto go and get a doctor."
"Y-Yeah." Naruto's unsure voice came almost as an whisper and I heard light foot steps receding from me and the door opened and closed after.
"Wh-" I tired speaking but my mouth felt dry as if there was sand in it.
Immediately my mom picked up a mug and brought it to my lips and lifted my head so I could drink from it. The moment the liquid passed my lips and slipped forward in my mouth the feeling of sand in my mouth vanished. Finally my mouth felt somewhat normal.
I tried carefully testing my voice by slightly coughing and continued my question, "What happened?" My voice was still hoarse from not talking for awhile.
"You were in an accident." Mom answered and lowered the mug back on the table next to my bed.
I had to thought a while before I remembered the black SUV I was fallowing and then the car coming through the door of the passenger's side. No wonder I feel like shit.
The door to my room opened and Naruto came in first and a man wearing a white doctors cloak after him. The older male took quick steps next to me and started pointing my pupils with his flashlight.
"Everything seems normal." he mumbled quietly, "Are you in pain?" I didn't first even realize the questions was meant for me until I looked at his face that was looking straight to mine.
"A little." I automatically answered and he took a small bottle and a syringe from his pocket, filled the syringe with the liquid in the bottle and started to fiddle with the IV attached to my arm. I didn't even notice the light liquid entering my system until I felt my eyes starting to droop and feeling a lot tired than I had only a minute ago.
It didn't take long after I fell asleep again.
SAKURA'S P.O.V
"Ugh!" I yelled out of frustration. I'm not sure for how long I've been trying to get myself out of these shackles but I know that since the moment I woke up I've been doing it none stop and the bad side is, my wrists are hurting like hell. As I continued trying to pull my hand away from the shackles hitched on the headboard of the bed I currently am on.
I pulled again and had to yelp in pain as the metal edge sinks in my already wounded skin. My tears spill over and I burst in tears. The nightgown I was wearing is blooded but I don't care. I just want to get out of this place. It doesn't matter how comfortable the bed is or how big I want my freedom.
Exhaustion came over me and I placed myself on my back on the bed. I was so tired for crying and numb because of the pain.
As I was beginning to fall asleep all I could think of is that when am I going to get out of here and hopefully Mr. Kimoto won't come for a long time. Weird enough I haven't seen him since the moment I woke up. And I fell asleep.
I wake up startled after realizing something was moving on my cheek and then I heard the sound, "Come on princess. Wake up." A slimy male voice came to my ears and I couldn't help the shiver erupting from my back.
Unfortunately he took my shiver the wrong way and he smiled brighter. I started to struggle to get away from him but the moment I started to move he grabbed my upper arm in a tight hold. It didn't even matter weather he was holding me in place or not because eventually the shackles would forbid me moving further away from the man I despise the most in this world.
He has caused so much trouble for me and my mom even though we're not even in a debt for him. How can someone be like this; how can he want to ruin someone's life so badly that he'll do everything humanly possible to accomplish his goal.
I had to stop squirming in his hold because he tightened his grip on my arm every time I struggled against him. Pleased by my obedience he smiled once again and placed his free arm on my thigh and slowly crept upwards and my breath was caught in my throat the moment his fingers brushed the edge of my underwear.
Suddenly he retracted his hand and began fiddling with the buttons of his white dress shirt. I could clearly see he was in a hurry as he tried to open the buttons as fast as he could. As I directed my gaze downwards from his fingers I noticed a clear lump in his trousers and my eyes widened in realization.
He's going to- I couldn't even finish the sentence in my mind for how horrified I was of the idea. A whimper left my mouth and caught Mir. Kimoto's attention, "It's okay princess. I won't hurt you." He stopped opening his buttons and started to caress my cheek again.
He started again, "It won-" A knock on the door interrupted him and his face darkened as he gave a fast glance to the closed door and yelled, "What is it?!" I flinched at the harshness of his words and I male dressed in black suit walked in but Mr. Kimoto kept his gaze on me like I would disappear if he didn't keep an eye or rather eyes on me.
"Boss, they need you at the economy department. They've ran into some trouble." The newcomer explained with the most fattest voice I've ever heard. He even beat Sasuke to it.
Mr. Komoto sighed deep and gritted his teeth, "And they can't wait for an hour?"
"No Boss."
"Fine." He grumbled and started buttoning his shirt back on quickly and gave look that clearly said 'you stay here'. I could only swallow loudly and he rose from the bed and stormed out of the room his subordinate close behind him.
SASUKE'S P.O.V
The things were heating in my hospital room, "I need to go!"I yelled at my brother who casually was standing his arms crossed over his chest looking bored as ever but if you knew him like I did you could see the glint of annoyance in his eyes.
I'll morning I've been trying to tell my mom, my brother, Naruto and the doctors that I need to find Sakura. I even told the police to tell the doctors to let me out of here so I could help them to find the pinkette but nothing so far has helped. The police shook their head and said they'll find her and I need to rest. How can I rest when I know she's in trouble!?
"No you don't." Came Itachi's strict command. Itachi arrived this morning to let my mom go because she hasn't been sleeping at all for the time I've been stuck in this 'jail'. My father came too this morning but it was quick because he had to take mom home to sleep. I was a little surprised to see sadness in his eyes when he looked at me. Usually he's passive as ever but these moment bring the feeling out even from the ice-cold businessman Uchiha Fukagu.
My hand formed I fist for my brother's answer.
"I'm not sure if you're well aware of your condition but let me remind you once again that you have a fractured shinbone and three ribs. You're in no condition to move. You need to rest."
Right now I wasn't hurting at all because the doctor had filled me with drugs so for now I was okay but the doctors think I'm not okay and so does Itachi. I know that the moment I was brought to the ER I was taken to x-ray and MRI to see what needs to be taken care of immediately and I was in a surgery to fix my shinbone that they weren't able to put back together without the it. But neither my hand are broken so I could easily use crutches.
"Your brother's right Sasuke. I know you want to find the hoodie-girl," Itachi gave Naruto a questioning look because of the nickname, "but you need to heal." Sometimes I wish Naruto could be the irrational person he usually is but now he has to show his rational side. Annoying when they side against me.
But the moment I glanced at Naruto I saw this glint in his eyes I knew he was hiding something, "Dope, what are you hiding?"
Immediately Naruto's eyes grew big and he turned his eyes away from my observant one's. I turned to look at Itachi who now was wearing the same glint in his eyes as Naruto.
"What is it that both of you are hiding?" I demanded glaring at the two males standing next to my bed.
Itachi gave Naruto I fast look and both of them nodded at each other.
"We think we know who's behind all of this." Itachi began and I felt a lump in my throat. They're suspecting someone and didn't tell me! I was agry for not allowed to know this little piece of information but I was also angry to the person behind Sakura's kidnapping.
Suddenly my thought were interrupted as the door to my room opened and I petite woman walked in. She looked the same age as my mom but her clothes weren't even near as high-class as my mom's.
She took cautious steps inside my room and looked a little nervous. No wonder when there's three males looking straight at you.
She lifted her head from the ground and looked at me, "I'm sorry to disturb you." She apologized and bowed her head.
Now that I look at her she looks kind of a familiar; little darker hair than Sakura has and green eye.
"My name is Sayuri Haruno and I'm Sakura's mother."
"He has always shown interest at her, even when she was 13." Sayuri explained as she was sitting on one of the chairs in my room. For the past 30 minutes she's been explaining how they got into this mess with Sakura and all I can say is that I hate Sakura's stepfather for what he has done. How can someone do something like that? Even the slightest thought of the stepfather made my blood boil, he is the reason why Sakura is in this mess right now.
"Have you informed the police about you suspicions against this Mr. Kimoto?" My brother asked as the lady finished her story clearly ashamed of what has happened in these past few years.
"Yeah and they even checked his house but found nothing so he's no longer their suspect, I guess." Sayuri answered.
"Does he have any property he owns aside from his home?" This could be the crucial question weather or not this guy has Sakura.
Sayuri nodded, "Yes of course. He's rich so why wouldn't he invest? I've myself been in one of his warehouses." She explained truthfully and I know what she means by being there because why would she go visit a place like that just for fun.
I was just about to ask her the directions for the warehouse until my brother interrupted me, "Absolutely not!" He raised his voice which isn't something he usually does even though how much I annoy him and he continued, "This is a work for police."
"But-" Naruto started. He too wanted to help.
"No Naruto. My word is final. Come Mrs. Haruno let's get something to drink." Itachi helped the poor woman up from her seat and began leading her out of the door.
As he was walking towards the door he accidentally hit one of my crutches and it fell down on the floor. he didn't even bother picking it up but gave me a look instead. After the door closer I shifted my gaze on the blond idiot next to my bed.
"Did you-" Naruto asked me and I nodded before he could finish. In a record time I was fully clothed and Naruto had brought a wheelchair for me to use before we exit the building.
