He growls and stands up straight. "Take him to the nearest, non-ninja village. Now."
"You mean the one that wouldn't be suspicious of us Itachi?" The little boy clutched the puppeteer's shirt weakly.
"Yes, you idiot." He growls and jumps off, moving ahead to tell the hospital.-
The man followed behind closely carrying the weak little boy in his arms.
He sheds off his coat at one point, to not look suspicious before entering the hospital. "We have a kid coming!"
One of the nurses looked up as Sasori brought the little boy in also leaving his coat behind on a nearby tree.
"Take care of him you fools!" He takes Sasuke from his arms and approaches the nurse.
A nurse brought a gurney out taking the little boy laying him down on the gurney. "Wait here, were going to take him to be stitched up." The nurse moved him away and into a room closing the door.
He growls and sits back in a chair, running his fingers though his hair.
"I didn't have control of what she did Itachi." Sasori spoke.
"Shut up." He growls, closing his eyes.
"An hour passed before a nurse walked out to the two. "What happened to him that he would get such a wound."
"He was attacked by a ninja."
"Where were you two when this happened?"
"In the tent..."
"Hmmm" The nurse wrote a few things down. "You can go see him now."
He nods and walks past her, to the room. "Sasuke?"
The little boy looked up from where he laid clutching a small stuff toy in his hands.
"Sasuke..." he sits by his bed.
"Aniki look they gave me a stuffed puppy..." The boy smiled weakly. "... They told me it was because I was a good little boy and stayed still while they stitched me up..."
He looks at the stuffed animal and nods, looking back at his little brother. "... Never again, Sasuke..."
"... What do you mean never again?" The boy tilted his head to the side.
"Don't... EVER do that again..."
The boy lowered his head. "... Aniki... I couldn't hurt her... She was my mom..."
"I'm not mad about that... don't hurt yourself again..."
"... But I didn't..."
"You didn't have to run to her like that..."
"... But you hurt her... I needed to check on mom... She would have done the same for me..."
"She was trying to kill you... can't you understand that?"
"If you tried to kill me I would still go to you..."
"..." He sighs, shaking his head and sitting back.
"... Aniki I'm sorry for making you mad..."
"It's alright, Sasuke..."
The little boy looked up to him holding the stuffed dog for him to take.
He blinks and leans forward, taking the dog.
"Can I take it with me when we go back to the atasku? I don't want to be alone..."
He sighs a bit and nods. "I'm sure the other's won't care..."
The boy smiled taking the dog back into his arms hugging the dog close. "They were asking me these funny questions Aniki..."
" ... Like?"
"Who did this to me... They got a strange look on their face when I told them that my mom did it."
He narrows his eyes and calls for Sasori.
Sasori came in blinking. "What's wrong Itachi?"
He looks to Sasuke. "Can you take care of him now that he's stitched up?"
The man nodded slowly then looked to Itachi confused. "Why do you want to move him?"
"I'll explain later." He gently picks him up. "Let's go, Sasuke... " He jumps to the window, and out of the building.
The little boy held tightly to his brother's shirt looking to him confused as well as Sasori followed the two. He jumps as fast as he can, toward camp.
"... Did I do something wrong...?" The little boy asked looking to his brother sadly.
He shakes his head. "You did nothing wrong, Sasuke... don't worry about it."
"... Aniki you told me I should never lie to anyone so I didn't... Why did you get so scared when I said it...?"
"I lied, not you."
"What did you lie about Aniki?"
"Don't worry about it. "
The boy gave a faint nod wrapping his arms around his neck once more holding onto him until he stopped at the camp.
He places him on the bed in the tent, sighing softly. "I don't know what to do about you..."
The little boy frowned slightly. "... Are you going to kill me just like mom...?"
"Of course not... I'll just have to stay here until you feel better."
"... You don't have to Aniki... I'll be good I doubt I'll be able to move for awhile..." He tried to smile. "... You can go on your missions."
He sighs and sits back, running his hands through his hair. " ... Sasuke Sasuke Sasuke..."
The boy's smile faded as he looked away from his older brother.
"... Who do you want to stay with you while I go?"
The boy held up his little stuffed dog. "I'll stay with him while your gone."
He smiles and ruffles his hair. "But of course..."
The boy smiled again. "I don't want to be burden on Deidara and Sasori when their out playing in the woods."
He laughs slightly. "They won't be playing much anymore."
"Why won't they be playing Aniki?"
"Because I said so."
"But they were happy..."
"That's a lie, Sasuke."
The boy looked at him confused. "... But they looked like they were enjoying it when they were going up and down."
He blushes a bit and closes his eyes. "You need sleep, Sasuke..."
"... When are you leaving Aniki?"
" In a few days."
"Will you spend time with me till then?"
"Of course... after you sleep."
The boy gave a faint nod as he curled against his brother for comfort as he rested.
He gently rubs his side, closing his eyes to rest.
The little boy slept silently.
