The Queen of Masks [Sakura Haruno Story]

40

Sakura hissed in pain, clutching her shoulder. The kyubi chakra was more powerful than she thought. And a whole lot more painful too.

Despite the argument with him, she still cared, so she ran towards Naruto on impulse, and she now knew what a mistake she had made.

Getting to her feet, Sakura began to step backwards, bitting her lip as the pain in her shoulder intensified.

She placed glowing hand to her bleeding shoulder, and frowned. It was deeper and harder to heal than she had first expected.

"Yamato." Sakura called.

"Yes Captain?"

"I think we both know what you need to do now." Sakura turned her head slightly. "Oh come now, don't look so surprised. I know about your wood style. I may still be a genin, but I'm a powerful genin, with powerful friends. I have access to certain files."

Yamato nodded solemly, clamping his hands together in a hand sign. 

Suddenly, thick wooden vines erupted from the earth around Naruto, wrapping around him and keeping him in place.

While Naruto was distracted, Yamato made one more hand sign and slammed him hand onto Naruto's chakra covered chest. 

Sakura watched on with no visible emotion as Naruto screamed in pain, his coat of chakra slowly disappearing.
