Nobody could sleep that night. If the accident wasn't enough, the victims, the imminent survival on that unexplored island, still had those terrible grunts heard by everyone, coming from the depths of the forest. The warm sunbeams were already illuminating all the devastation on that beach when the survivors decided to get up and look for supplies or anything else that might be useful to them.

"Good Morning." - Tenten greeted Sakura, who spent the night beside Sasuke accompanying him in case she needed medical assistance. 'How is he?'

"He had a fever most of the night, but I managed to get it under control with a few cold compresses..."

'Do you think you'll survive?'

"I'll do anything to make sure he survives. Are you okay?"

"Yes, I am! I just came to see if you needed anything. Yesterday you worked hard to make everyone here well. You must be tired... I noticed you didn't rest during the night! By the way, I'm Tenten, nice to meet you." – She extended her hand, which Sakura shook.

"Sakura. I'm fine Tenten, thank you. After that strange noise I couldn't sleep a wink... and apparently neither did you, since you noticed I didn't rest." - She smiled sweetly and was reciprocated.

"I don't think any of us were able to rest... Sakura, you're hurt!" Your back is bleeding. He noticed the amount of blood on the woman's white shirt.

"I know... it's been bothering me since I woke up in the woods, but I can't see. Can you see for me?" She lifted her shirt enough to expose her back.

"Oh! – She exclaimed, touching around the wound. "It's a pretty ugly cut... I'd say it needs some stitches..."

"I wish I could find my luggage! I have a first aid kit and even some medicine that could help Sasuke." - She observed the boy still unconscious, with a face so serene that he didn't even seem to have suffered such a terrible loss.

"I can look for you! How is it?"

"As pink as my hair." - She smiled and was accompanied by Tenten. "It could have been thrown a few yards from here... it was in the top compartment of the cabin."

"I saw smoke a few meters from here. Maybe it's there. Well, it's worth looking..."

"I thank you so much Tenten! But go together! We don't know what's out there...

"It's ok, I know how to take care of myself Sakura. I feel sorry for this boy... I think of all of us, he was the most harmed. I would like to do something to help."

"If you want, I can go look for the luggage while you stay here with him!" – She suggested getting up and looking at the forest in front of her.

"He's better in your hands!" Tenten laughed and took a deep breath. "I'll go and come back as fast as I can."

" Thanks..."

Tenten went back to her luggage to prepare for the exploration. Naruto approached Sakura accompanied by Hinata, Neji and a young man with funny hair who called himself Lee.

"Good morning Sakura. How is he?" - Naruto referred to Sasuke.

'Feverish... Tenten went to see if he could find my luggage.' "I have medicines there that might help you."

"Tenten?" – Neji asked surprised.

"Yes, that woman over there." Sakura pointed.

"I think I better go with her! Maybe I'll find something useful for all of us. Hinata stay close to them please."

"Don't worry Neji, I'm not a child anymore." - She said low, embarrassed. Neji just nodded in agreement before heading towards Tenten.

"Take care!" - Lee warned. "We need to find supplies. Water, food, whatever is useful to survive."
