After Sasuke and I took off towards the hospital on Sasuke's hawk summon we had laid Itachi on his back, Sasuke is kneeling on his right and I am on his left. I needed to continue to check his vitals, I have to make sure they don't drop. Itachi is sweating and breathing heavily he's also fading in and out of consciousness. I feel like we'll never reach the hospital, time is moving too slowly. Itachi Uchiha wasn't supposed to get hurt, he was supposed to be unbreakable. The powerful ANBU captain wasn't supposed to look like this. Seeing him like this just made me nervous. I have to stay focused he needs my full attention. I look up and I can see the hospital, about thirty more seconds we'll be in front of the hospital. I look at Sasuke's face he's clearly nervous his eyes are completely focused on Itachi. I cannot imagine what he's feeling, the older brother that he's always looked up too and that has never been injured in his whole shinobi career other than a few minor cuts and bruises is unconscious with some kind of poison running through his system. I grabbed his hand and looked into his eyes.

"It's going to be okay Sasuke, I'm going to do everything I can to save him." I told him, but he didn't look very reassured.

"And what if it's not Sakura? What if he dies?" He asked me and ripped his hand away from me. I know not to be offended when he's in a mood and I can understand his stress, but it doesn't make me feel better. He's doubting my skills as a medic and I don't like the fact that he has no faith in me. I have to think positive. I am going to save Itachi, he will not die on me. I will not allow it.

When we finally land in front of the hospital Sasuke lifts Itachi on his back and we rush into the hospital together. When Sasuke and I walked in the doors I ran in front of him to get to the nurses station. There were three nurses sitting at their station on the computers probably looking for files for the doctors. One of them looked at me and noticed my rushing.

"What's wrong Haruno-San?" She asked while standing up, clipboard in hand.

"Poison victim. I need to get the poison out right now. He has a fever and is in and out of consciousness, so the poison is clearly making its way through his system. If I don't get it out now then there might be irreversible damage done to his body. Patient's name is Itachi Uchiha." I told her as I called for the bed to take him to a room where I can do the poison extraction process to get the poison out. She wrote all his information in his chart and then went to go help get the room ready for the poison extraction process.

When the bed finally came the nurses and I grabbed Itachi from Sasuke and put him on the hospital bed. The nurses and I started wheeling Itachi away, but I stopped when Sasuke called my name. I stopped moving with the other nurses and turned to look at Sasuke as they continued to bring Itachi to the room and preparing for the procedure.

"Save my brother Sakura." He told me with the most serious look I have ever seen on his face. I nodded at him and turned my back to him and ran to catch up with the nurses. By the time I make it to Itachi's hospital room the nurses have connected him to an IV drip and heart monitor.

"Bring me the warm bowl of water and an empty bowl" I told the nurse standing to my right. She nods and leaves to grab the bowl. I put my hair into a ponytail to keep it out of my face. When I'm finished putting my hair up the nurse returns with the two large bowls one filled with lukewarm water and the second bowl is empty both on a rolling tray.

"Thank you. Hold him down, we need to keep him still during the process." I tell her as I move the tray as close as possible to Itachi's hospital bed. I stick my hands into the water and using medical chakra to form the water into a sphere. I turn my body to face Itachi and push the water into his abdomen focusing on the water as a sphere. I move the water around in his abdominal area to pick up some traces of the poison in Itachi's bloodstream in this area. After a few minutes I take the water sphere out of Itachi's abdomen and put the water sphere with small traces of the poison into the empty bowl. I repeat this process all over his body until I cannot pick up any more traces of poison, but this doesn't mean that the poison is out of his system now it is in the hands of his antibodies to fight off the effects of the poison, until I can make an antidote just to be sure that there is no poison still lingering in his system.

"Bring the poison down to the lab. I need it to determine the contents of the poison and make an antidote in case this happens to anyone else." I tell the nurse and turn away from her. I listen to her footsteps as she walks away from me and in the direction of the lab. I take a deep breath and look at Itachi. I need to go tell Sasuke that Itachi is going to be just fine.

I walk towards the door and I look back at him one last time before I leave the room. He still has a little bit of a temperature, but his face looks less pale and he seems to be sleeping easier. Good he's going to make a full recovery and since we got most of the poison out there should be no lasting damages done to his body.

I shut the door as I leave the room, give him some privacy when he wakes up which shouldn't be that long. As I walk down the hallway towards the nurses station and the waiting room noticed that Sasuke's parents have joined him in the waiting room. Before I even get to them Mikoto is already making her way towards me.

"How is he? Where is he? Can we see him?" She shoots off these questions so fast I barely have time to register in my head that she's asked them. She grabs my arm when I don't respond right away. I grab her hand in both of mine.

"Mikoto, Itachi is going to be just fine. Yes you can go see him, his room is down this hallway the first door on the right. He's sleeping so just keep the volume down low and there shouldn't be a problem." I told her smiling at her.

"Thank you so much Sakura-Chan!" She tells me excitedly and goes rushing off to see her oldest son. Probably to make sure that he's actually alright. Fugaku stares at me for a little and then just nods slightly at me and follows after his wife.

"Thank you Sakura" Sasuke tells me quietly, smiles at me and goes to check on his brother. I smile knowing that it so like Sasuke, that's probably the best apology I am going to get. I turn away and head to the nurses station.

"Hey I'm going to my office let me know if Uchiha-San wakes up or anything in his current status changes." I tell her walking by the nurse's station in the direction of my office. I think I'm going to take a nap while I wait for Itachi to wake up.

"Haruno-San" I hear someone calling me. I also hear a knocking on the door. I rub my eyes before opening them. "Uchiha-san has awoken, you told me to come get you at your office when he woke up" The nurse behind the door explained to me.

"Okay thank you" I tell her as I quickly get up and walk towards the door. The nurse was waiting for me in front of the door with Itachi's chart ready for me to take. Perfect. I take the chart from her and quickly walk by her towards Itachi's room. The nurse rushes after me.

"Uchiha-san's condition has been stable and his fever has gone away." She tells me running to keep up with my pace, but eventually gives up and allows me to continue at my pace to Itachi's room.

When I finally get there I knock on the door before entering. Mikoto is in the one chair in the room and Sasuke and Fugaku are leading against the wall by Itachi's bed and Itachi is sitting up in his hospital bed.

"Hi guys can you guys excuse us for a few minutes while I do a quick check up?" I asked them only out of courteously because I'll kick them out anyway. They all nodded and started making their way out and I closed the door behind them to give us some privacy.

"Hi Itachi how are you feeling?" I asked him as I was looking over his chart waiting for his response, so I could write it down.

"I am feeling much better thank you very much Sakura for saving my life" He told me.

"You gave everyone quite the scare you know." I told him smiling at him. "But with my beautiful medical skills your life was saved" I said in a joking manner to make him laugh a little and to lighten the mood.

"You did indeed save my life Sakura. There is nothing that can repay what you have given me" He told me seriously. I didn't really know how to respond to that, so I said "I was just doing my duty as a medic you know. I need to check up on some things do you mind?"

"Please go ahead." So I took my stethoscope from around my neck and check his breathing, took his temperature and took a new blood sample and wrote my findings in his chart.

"We are going to keep you for a few days for observation, but it seems you are just fine. I am going down to the lab now to make an antidote and I will administer it to you when it is finished just in case there is any remnants of the poison in your bloodstream okay?" I told him smiling to reassure him that everything was going to be just fine.

"I am going to let your family back in" I told him as I opened door and let him family back in. "He's all yours now." I told them and smiled at them. I started making my way to the lab when Mikoto called my name. I turned to look at her.

"Yes Mikoto?" I asked, walking back to her.

"When can Itachi leave the hospital?" She asked me. She is still worrying about Itachi, but it's clearly visible that knowing her son is going to be okay as lessened her worry.

She looks pale though, she needs to rest.

"Itachi can leave in a few days we just want to keep him under observation for a few days. Itachi is fine Mikoto, so you can stop worrying so much. We at the hospital are going to take good care of him, but you need to go home soon and get some rest. If something happened to you Itachi would worry and it won't be good for his recovery okay?" I told her gently, putting my hand on her shoulder. "When visiting hours are over you need to go home and rest for Itachi's sake." She nodded in understanding and went to go spend more time with her son before visiting hours were over. When the door to Itachi's room closed behind Mikoto was when I started making my way to the lab to analyze the poison to get an antidote.

I know analyzing the components of the poison is going to take a while, maybe I should get Shizune to help me since she is the resident poison expert and if she is helping it should take less time. I think that sounds like a good idea. Now I just need to find her.
