T-they're a team?! (discontinued)

sakura's training pays off

Sakura may have a lot of stamina but she was a panting mess, she had ran at top speeds almost matching naruto and had arrived near a large tree with its roots popping up making it the perfect premade shelter,she dragged both her brothers inside and laid them down gently she immediately went to work to heal the both of them, she had witnessed what orochimaru had done and she deducted that he must have put some sort of seal on both of them she gently pulled down sasuke's hoodie and saw the mark on his neck,she had heard him yell in pain when she was fighting and she new this 'thing' was the reason for it, onto naruto, she lightly placed her hand on his forehead but quickly flicked it back after she felt how hot his body temperature was, he had a fever and was panting slightly sakura knew it was almost impossible for naruto to get sick but he was showing signs of a bad cold and this worried her, thinking back to the battle she cursed herself for being so slow she got up and started a fire and began putting large leaves around the tree to hide and camouflage them

"Hnng..." sakura snapped her head back and saw naruto was squirming, his eyes slightly opened and he looked dazed, she ran over to him and put her hand on his head using a bit of medical ninjutsu to cool him down "snake...bitch" he croaked out

"I know Naru I know" she shook her head lightly

"Fuck... I think she added onto my seal" he put his hand on his stomach but quickly flinched at the discomfort "yup this is gonna hurt like hell"

"Naruto I know what your thinking, don't do it"'

"He's cut off my chakra connection with Kurama I have to do it myself" he forced himself to lift his shirt up

"Bro seriously" she warned

"Too late" he made a hand seal and small kanjis covered in chakra like fire danced on his fingertips "5 pronged seal release!" he smashed his hand onto his seal and he looked as if he immediately regretted it as he swung his arms and clutched his stomach "hng!...s-shit that...hurts!" his body temperature flew through the roof and he had beads of sweat rolling down his face

There was shuffling beside naruto and sakura peered over to see Sasuke was also waking up "why is it so hot-OH MY GOD NARUTO WTF" he seemed to have completely forgotten his own injury and immediately got up and kneeled next to sakura "what is he doing?!"

"Orochi pedo added some dumbass seal onto his so he's removing it by himself" she summed up "why doesn't he just get Kurama to do it?"

"He said the seal cut off his chakra connections with Kurama," Sakura said while still trying to cool naruto down

"GUH!...!" Naruto yelped and then relaxed "second..one...is off" he panted in between words but before he could catch his breath he once again flinched and clutched his body in pain "bastard...ngh... snake!" The third one came off and naruto could lightly feel the Kyuubi's chakra again "kit I'm here, leave the rest to me" he sighed, relieved that Kurama was back but immediately forgot about the seal and grunted in displeasure when the felt the final prong come off

His body went limp and he planted heavily, Sakura wiped his forehead and Sasuke gently massaged his shoulders ", you good bro?"

"Do I look good to you?"Naruto retorted, sarcasm was evident in his voice "we gotta get to the tower, can you walk?"

"Kinda?" Nature attempted to sit up "ok...I think I ca-nope" he immediately fell forward, Sasuke caught him and helped him up "yeah Nah I'm carrying you"

"Wa-SASUKE!" Naruto yelped as Sasuke lifted him up into a bridal style, the Uchiha smirked down at naruto who looked flustered, Sakura snickered as she grabbed all their things

"What are we gonna do about this shelter?" Sasuke asked "yeah we don't want to let someone else find this and give them an advantage" naruto added

Sakura smirked and cracked her knuckles "I got this" they watched with confusion as she walked up to the makeshift hut and stood a foot away from the entrance, she bent her arm back and made a fist "CHA!!!!!!" She yelled and slammed her fist into the ground at first nothing happened and naruto and Sasuke were confused before they felt rumbling coming from the ground and the entire tee exploded and bits of wood were thrown everywhere, the remaining area was covered in a cloud of dust and Sakura walked out blowing on her knuckles and winked "I've been practising that with Guy"

"Remind me never to upset her"

"Only if you do the same for me"

She flicked her ponytail and dusted off her crop top before hopping away "keep up boys!" Sasuke looked down at the blond he was carrying "Welp let's go"

"If you drop me I will end you" naruto wrapped his arms around Sasuke's neck and the raven hopped after their pink-haired teammate, they had no idea how but they seemed a shit ton closer to the tower than before...' weird'
