Sarada's POV
I woke up and looked around. "Mama? Papa?" I asked. They were nowhere. I ran out of them room, even though they told me to never leave the room without anyone. Outside of the door was Aunt Karin. "Aunt Karin! Where's Mama and Papa!?" I asked. "Sarada, you're up. Well.....you're parents went with Jugo to go check some stuff out for a while. Uncle Suigetsu and I watching over you until they get back." She said.
"Oh....ok." I said as I walked closer to Uncle Suigetsu. He sat down and ruffled my hair. He picked me up and put me in his lap and told me what we were going to do.
"We're gonna have lots of fun, Sarada. We're gonna do whatever you wanna do until they get back!!" He said.
Sasuke's POV
Jugo, Sakura and I walked further and further away from Sarada.
"Will she be ok?" Sakura asked, looking up to me. I looked down to her and smiled, pulling her closer as we continued.
"Everything will be ok. Karin and Suigetsu are really good at keeping her busy and protecting her at all costs. Now, stay focused and alert. I'm not the only Uchiha." I said, letting her go so we could be more alerted.
Suigetsu's POV
I sat with Sarada and Karin in the room Sarada usually stayed in.
"Uncle Suigetsu? Can we pleaseee get out of here?" Sarada begged for the tenth time. I know I should probably stay in here with her and Karin but what if we just go into my office? I mean, a few feet couldn't hurt, could it?
"Fine. Come on. Let's go to my office." I said as we walked out and to my office, Karin staring at me in disbelief.
"I can't believe you!!" Karin shouted after Sarada went into my office alone and we stood outside of it. "It'll be fine. I'll be out here on guard. You watch her." I said, rolling my eyes. "Whatever. If anything happens, it's your fault." She said, leaving me to join Sarada. I sighed. Watch duty sucks.
Sasuke's POV
I scanned the area as Sakura and Jugo began to sleep. I looked to my left after hearing the cliff side begin to crumble in the area.
"Sakura. Jugo. Up. Now." I said between my teeth tapping them with my foot so I wouldn't alert any enemy nearby.
Sarada....I'm sorry. Tomorrow is your 6th birthday. I....don't think we're going to see you again.
Suigetsu's POV
A door slammed down the hallway. I peeked into my office doorway and gave Karin a signal to come out and watch while I go see what happened.
I walked down the hall carefully, clenching the sword handle at my side. "Whoever you are, get out of here!!! Show yourself!!" I shouted.
Who am I kidding!? First off, the villain never shows themselves after someone says that!!! Secondly, I don't WANT them to come out!! I don't want to die!!! I thought as I kept a straight face.
A tall man with a black mask on lunged at me with a sword coming straight for my chest.
"Karin!!!! Get out of here!!!" Was the last thing I managed.
Karin's POV
I heard Suigetsu shout. I ran into his office, grabbing Sarada and jumping out of the window, shattered glass cutting my arms and legs as it pilled up around the window frame. "Aunt Karin!? Where are we going!?" Sarada asked, her voice shaky in fear. "We're going to explore for a few days." I lied.
"You're a bad liar." She said. Smart kid. "Ok fine, we're running away from that lair." I said. She looked at me. "It'll be ok. I'm going to contact your parents and try and get you with them. I have things I need to take care of and I need to do it fast." I said, continuing to run as far as I could.
Sasuke's POV
I continued running with Sakura and Jugo from whatever was chasing us, leaving our stuff behind us.
Sasuke, I'm coming to drop Sarada off. Suigetsu's going to die if I don't hurry. Sorry. Karin's voice said as she used a mind jutsu that Ino taught her to transfer what she was saying to me. Crap.
"Sakura, keep going with Jugo." I said. Sakura looked back at me, worry painted in her eyes as she nodded and continued with Jugo.
Keep her safe, Jugo. I though as I unsheathed my sword.
"Come on!" I shouted at whatever was following me, trying to make them show their power.
Sakura's POV
Jugo and I ran further and further from Sasuke. What is going on with him?! I thought. "Sakura. There is no need to worry. Sasuke is very intelligent and strong. He makes decisions that will never fail. There is no need to worry about him. You should know better, he's your husband after all." Jugo said as we continued. "You're right. Thank you." I said.
Karin's POV
I held Sarada as I heard swords clashing nearby. Find Sakura. Sarada can't see me like this. Sasuke said through the mind jutsu I connected him to. I replied with an 'ok' and detoured to find Sakura.
About twenty minutes later
I finally found Sakura and told her what was happening and went back to find Suigetsu.
Please be ok, Suigetsu.
Suigetsu's POV
About three hours had passed since Karin left. She probably isn't coming back for me. The enemy was dead halfway across the room. I was leaning on the wall; my chest, leg, arm, and forehead bleeding. Dang. Looks like I'm dying here. How pathetic.
"Suigetsu!! What the heck happened to you!?" Karin asked as she rushed to my side. "I'll explain later. Just heal me, crazy woman." I grunted. She rolled her eyes and rolled her sleeve up, revealing her arm that was painted in bite marks from her jutsu. "Go ahead. You know the drill." She said. I nodded a thanks and bit an open spot on her arm as she began healing me.
Thank you, Karin. You may be annoying but hey, you came to save me. Thank you.
