Short Chapter

Sasuke's Pov

My voice trembling with fear and desperation, as I held Kaiya arms as I raced towards the hospital. Blood flowed from her wound in her chest, stained my hands crimson. "Don't close your eyes, okay? Just stay with me," I pleaded as I watched her struggle to hold on,

My breaths came in ragged gasps, "Shit," I watched her blink one last time before she slumped on my arms. I tried upping my speed even though I knew I was going the fastest I can.

"Sasuke, what is going... is that Kaiya?" I sped past my a shocked Shikamaru and continued. I tightened my grip on her as I saw the hospital in view.

My pace never changed as I reached the hospital's entrance. I didn't waste a second as I burst through the doors, shouting for help. "She needs help! Where's the medics, where's the Hokage?!"

The medical ninjas that were already in the room rushed forward, taking Kaiya from my arms and placing her on a stretcher. Fear and anger were all that could feel as I watched them wheel her away from me.

I stood there trembling when I could feel someone touching me. "-suke, Sasuke!"

"What!" I turned around and shouted to the person behind me. I came face to face with Shizine or whatever her name is looking at me with horror. "What happened? Whose blood is that on you?

"Kaiya."

"What?" She sounded confused.

"Kaiya she was stabbed... by-by," I paused the anger in me growing more in more just thinking by him. That bastard! I kill him.

"By whom Sasuke? Tell me," Shizine inquired.

"By Itachi in the chest."

"What!" She stood up straight. "I have to alert Lady Tsunade about this!" She said before leaving the hospital. It didn't take long before Shikamaru came and bombarded me with questions, but I didn't answer any of them. All I could think about was what had just happened.

One minute she was laughing and the next minute she was on the floor, blood coming out of her chest. I let out a psychotic laugh when Shikamaru looked at me concerned. I thought I wouldn't have to feel like this ever again, this pain and sorrow. But Itachi couldn't let me have one thing, NOT ONE FUCKING THING!

"I'll kill him, I'll kill him," I muttered under my breath. I'll do it even if it's the last thing I'll do. Even if I die trying beyond the grave, I'll finish the job.

But I should've known he wouldn't have left it at that. I was responsible for what had happened to her. It all came down to the choice I had made – the choice to stay in Konoha. When I had initially planned to leave her that night, but her words gave me hope that I didn't have to take that path of vengeance like that.

As I stared at the sterile walls of the hospital room, guilt was eating me up. What if I had left Konoha as I had originally planned? What if I had pursued Itachi alone, sparing Kaiya from this danger that had now befallen her? These questions tormented me, and I couldn't escape the heavy burden of responsibility.

"Sasuke, are you listening to us?!" My body was shaken by that idiot. "We said tell us what happened to Kaiya. We were told those freaky ninjas to come to the hospital."

I looked up to see Naruto, Sakura, and Team 10 waiting for me to explain what happened. "When we're going to meet with you, we had stopped to talk for a few seconds and in the midst of talking Itachi appeared of nowhere and stabbed her in the chest."

A gasp came from Sakura and Ino who looked like they were about to cry. "We should be finding him right now!" Naruto shouted.

"It's too late now," I shook my head. "Knowing him, he's already gone." I said and walked away. "Uchiha-san," a nurse walked up to me. "We would like to check to see if you have any wounds." I didn't feel like saying anything, so I just followed her.
