Sarada Uchiha: My little girl

"Broken"

She had lost too much chakra, so she fainted. Sasuke helded her closer and told Sakura to move and grab her eyes from Shion's hand.

"Sasuke-kun.." she said.

"P-put them in..." he said while trying to hold himself from a breakdown. "Just do it.."

Sakura sighed and looked at his daughter. She put her eyes back. Then she stared healing her.

Silence was all over the cave while Sakura healed his daughter.

"Is she gonna be..." Mitsuki tried to say to Naruto.

"I don't know" he replied. "Sakura, Sasuke...we must go back now."

Sasuke and Sakura nodded. Then they stood up.

"Don't you want me to help you carry her?" Sakura said.

"No." Sasuke replied. "I-I'll do it."

----------------------------------------------------------

"Mama look!!" Himawari yelled while seeing her dad entering the gates. "Daddy brought them back!"

Hinata and Himawari welcomed the group back but as they saw Naruto and Boruto's face they got worried.

"Naruto-kun?" Hinata asked.

"Hinata, call Tsunade and tell her to go to the hospital now." Naruto said "Take Boruto and Mitsuki with you"

"I'll meet you all there" Sakura said while walking besides Sasuke who was still holding Sarada.

Naruto saw everyone go and sighed.

"Dad? What happened to Sarada-chan?" He looked down to Himawari who was looking at him innocently for a while. Then he kneeled down and hugged her while crying.

"Dad?" Himawari said in confuse while hugging his father back. "It's okay dad, she's safe now." she said trying to calm him down.

At the hospital Sakura did everything so Sarada could be trated as soon as possible. She brought Boruto and Mitauki to another room and started treating them. Then Hinata came in with Tsunade.

"Where's she?" she said. Sakura nodded and pointed to the room where Sarada was.

"Wait outside" she said while entering with Shizune.

Hours passed and Sakura and Sasuke were still waiting outside. None of them spoke. Suddenly Naruto and Himawari entered the hospital.

"Sakura-chan!" he said "What happened?"

"Tsunade-sama's still with her" she said. Sasuke nodded.

"What about Boruto and Mitsuki?" Himawari asked.

"They're doing fine. Room 232" she replied. Himawari looked to her father for permission before leaving.

"Go Hima" he said before turning to see their friends. Then Tsunade came towards them.

"Tsunade ba-chan..." Naruto said while Sakura and Sasuke stood up "How's she?"

Tsunade sighed. "What you told me was right Sakura. Sarada.... has been raped...."

Sakura started crying, Sasuke hugged her.

"We...detected 3 different types of sperm inside her. I injected an antidote that prevents her to get pregnant" she said. "You may be relieved in that part"

"What?! You mean that Shion was the third one?!?" Naruto said.

"Yes. She had been raped 2 time before him. Maybe were some of his men while you were coming.." she sighed and turned to see Sasuke and Sakura "But you have a big task now. You'll get to see all the emotional damage she suffered through time. It'll take a long process of therapy to recover from that experience. In fact, there's a big possibility that some effects may last forever."

"And what should we do?" Sakura said. Sasuke was having a hard time processing everything.

"Ino will do her part in it. But first we must take care of her physical injuries." she sighed, "Go and see her."

Sakura and Sasuke nodded before entering the room. Naruto was about to enter but Tsunade stopped him.

"Sarada may have changes in her personality Naruto. It'll be hard for them to deal with them" she said.

"I know, I won't abandon them" he said.

"Thanks." she replied. "I'll go get Ino."

In the room, Sakura leaned close to her daughter while holding her hand.

"Sarada, sweety..." she said. "You're safe now, you'll be fine. Mama and papa are here. Please, wake up."

"Sakura" Sasuke said. "You should, get some rest at home"

"But-" she said.

"I'll take care of her tonight. Tomorrow you'll come while I rest" he said. Sakura nodded before giving a quick kiss on Sarada's forehead. Then she turned to see Sasuke.

"Take care of her" she said while hugging him. "Call me if you need something."

"Hn." he said while she left. Then he looked at her daughter.

"Sarada. I can't find the exact words to say that I'm sorry. Neither I can find the way to tell you that from now on I'll protect you because I failed you. I failed you as a... father. You know, my life had been a misery. My brother killed our clan when I was young and I did horrible things while seeking for revenge." he said without noticing that Naruto was already inside the room.

"I also tried to kill your mother, and my best friend. And thanks to my stupid revenge I lost my arm and the chances of living a normal life. But then Sakura gave me another chance and thanks to her I have you..." he added while crying. "And I promised to keep you safe the moment you were born. And now....those bastards harmed you in front of me...and I didn't protected you..."

Naruto was silently crying at the scene. He leaned close to Sasuke and put his arm in his shoulder.

"It's not your fault teme..." he said.

"I'm an idiot dobe" he replied. "I don't know how I can see her after this. How can I face her now and tell her that I'll protect her with my life now huh?"

"Sasuke we're not perfect. We make mistakes and learn from them... You need to be strong now man. Sarada needs you now more then ever. Sakura too though. This is your chance to start again with them. Have a new beggining" he said. Sasuke got up and faced Naruto.

"Thanks dobe" he said while hugging him. Naruto was shocked by it.

"No problem teme!" he grinned while hugging him back.

"Don't get used to it." he said while breaking the hug. "This is just for her. Now go see Boruto before he causes more troubles."

"Sure..." Naruto said while grinning and leaving the room. He knew Sasuke did it because he really needed support. But he wouldn't admit it so he let it go that way..
