Chapter four:The watch and mysterious attackers.

I was shaken awake by Hinata who was blushing as I woke up. She stumbled around an apology for waking me up but I stopped her with a hug and let her lay down next to Ino and Naruto taking my spot. Climbing up I stretched making my head throb, okay I was seriously getting sick of the dizziness and the head throbbing. Turning I spotted Sasuke a little ways away sitting on a rock under the moon light. The darkness around me unsettled my stomach and I bit my lip as I took my seat next to him. We were silent for the first hour and he finally spoke up.

"So what really happened in there?" He said turning his dark eyes on me.

"Exactly what I said. I fell on the body left to get the first aid kit came back and it was gone." I shrugged.

"You know your easy to read. There is more to it then that." He pointed out.

"W-what?" I blushed glad it was dark so he couldn't see it.

"When you keep something to yourself but you want to say it you bite your bottom lip." He shrugged.

"I have known you for like a day and you think you know me well guess what you don't!"I hissed.

"No you do it in Physics too."

"What, your in my physics class."I said mouth gaping at him.

"Yeah I sit three rows behind you. Pink hair is kinda hard not to notice." He smirked.

"Why didn't you say anything." I laughed.

"Don't know."He shrugged.

"You could have said something." I laughed feeling stupid at my out burst earlier.

"So what is your big secret." He said staring down at me.

"Even if I told you, you wouldn't believe me." I frowned.

"Well a body went missing and so did our flight attendant so humor me."

"Okay...Well when I found the first aid kit I began to leave when I saw my bag so I bent down to get it. I heard a noise like someone was shuffling toward me. When Itachi came in he must have spooked who or whatever it was. I peeked around to see a foot hide in one of the seats so I headed over there and the aisle was empty. When me and Itachi were leaving I felt like someone was watching and then we found the body missing." I explained finally looking to him.

"So we might not be as alone out here as we thought." He frowned.

"Yeah-." I cut out as a shadow moving in the woods out of the corner of my eye.

"what's up?" He asked.

" I just thought I saw something." I shrugged it off feeling eyes on us.

Silence ensumed as I continued to scan the surrounding trees. Once again I saw movement but this time I knew it was a person. The silhouette was taller then me and muscular indicating it was a guy. He was taller then most of the boys that were sleeping on the ground beside us. It was standing in a position where I knew that he was staring at me. When he turned and disappeared into the bushes jumping up I ran after him. Bursting through the bushes I found myself alone with the presence gone. Sasuke appeared beside me putting a hand on my shoulder making me jump.

"Sakura you okay?" He asked.

"There is someone out here." I clenched my fists.

"Sakura I didn't see anything." He said turning to head back.

"But Sasuke I really di-." I didn't get to finish as an arm snaked around my waist pulling me deeper into the bushes.

"SASUKE!"I screamed.

I was trying to pry the arm off from around my waist. I was also kicking my feet trying to reach the ground, but my attempts were nothing to this person. He was so tall that when he grabbed me he had hoisted me into the air. My feet dangled over the ground about a foot. I cried out when I was thrown over the persons shoulder. I began kicking my feet even more all the while punching him in the back demanding that he put me down. My attacker stopped and dropped me to the ground. I looked up to find the figure looming over me. A sound in the distant made the figure turn his head. I took the opportunity to crawl backward until I could stand up. I got up and began running. Heaving footfalls behind me run even faster I took the risk of looking back. Tripping over a log I fell to the ground a sharp pain springing from my ankle. A dark figure reached out for me and I screamed.

"Sakura its me." Sasuke's voice sounded from the figure.

"S-sasuke." I said tears streaming down my face.

"You okay?" He asked wrapping an arm around my waist.

"My ankle." I cried clinging to his shirt.

"Your going to be okay. I wont let this happen again I swear." He promised putting a arm under my knees and sweeping me into the air. I buried my face into his neck and tried to stop my crying.

Making it back to camp the others were awake most likely from my screaming. Sasuke set me down and got the first aid kit. Walking over he looked to me with confusion in his face. Turning to Itachi he handed the kit to Itachi who had a little medical experience from being a pilot who might need it in these kind of situations. Sasuke knelt down next to me as Itachi looked me over. Announcing that it was definitely broken and he had to set and wrap it. Itachi told me to get ready for the pain. I grabbed Sasuke's hand and squeezed it as my other arm went around his neck. I buried my head into his shirt and nodded. Itachi twisted my ankle setting the break I knew I had. Crying out I wrapped both arms around him and buried my head deeper into his shirt. Wrapping it up in an ace bandage from the medical bag so it wouldn't move that much to let it heal over time. I leaned against Sasuke breathing in small gulps of air.

"What happened?" Itachi demanded as he packed up the kit.

"We were on watch and Sakura thought she saw something and ran after it. I followed her not seeing anything, we turned to come back and something grabbed her and ran off. I followed them getting Sakura back."Sasuke explained still holding me.

"Itachi...on the plane I thought I saw...something. I didn't tell you because I didn't think it was real. … I saw a foot disappear in one of the seats and the aisle was empty when I checked." I grit out.

"Its okay next time don't keep things from any of us okay." He said patting my arm.

"I will." I said.

"Sasuke, Sakura rest up. Tomorrow me, Shika and Neji are going to investigate the plane." Itachi got up and headed back to his place under a tree.

"Sasuke, will you...will you stay with me." I asked biting my lip.

"Just go to sleep." He mumbled already dozing off leaning against a rock.

I curled up against him, pressing myself into his side I closed my eyes. He smelled like fresh rain and peppermint. It soothed me even though I had to fight off the pain radiating from my ankle. It felt a lot better now that it was wrapped and set. I was falling for him, I may have only met him today, even though we were in a class for the last two years together and I didn't know, I was definitely falling for him.
