—————-

At the realization that Kakashi is indeed following Sakura and consequently me, my fight or flight instincts kick in and I'm speeding in Sakura's direction.

I sigh at the feeling of the wind flowing through my outgrown hair, and almost find myself losing my train of thought at the pleasant sensation. 

I gotta maintain a certain distance between myself and Sakura, luckily, I manage to do so quite easily yet I can't help myself when I glance back wearily, knowing that Kakashi is indeed far away but the man could easily catch up at this rate!

Turning back so I'm looking ahead, my eyes narrow in Sakura's direction. All of that blabbering about how she'd kill me if I didn't let her go.

Ugh as if!

After countless minutes of running, I begin to feel Sasuke's chakra very nearby, and my eyes squint as an opening from the trees ahead are shown.

Hmm, I shouldn't just barge into whatever is happening, I'll conceal my chakra then hide so I could scope the scene first.

As planned, I swiftly conceal my chakra and run towards the opening of trees, revealing a large bridge pathway over water, broken at the center and dividing the path between where I am now and Sasuke.

I see him clearly from my hiding spot, gasping lightly when I zero in on the condition of his bleeding eye. My heart constricts in worry before anything else, is he okay?!

Stupid STUPID Uchihas with their STUPID EYES DAMNIT! If my baby even THINKS he's gonna get away with such reckless behavior when he's older than he has another thing coming, hmph!

Speaking of my baby, I do a glance over of Sasuke, this being my first time seeing him in person since I found out about our son and I can't help but pout softly to myself. Ugh, looks like our unnamed baby really is gonna look just like him!

Before I could find myself in baby/Sasuke dreamland, I quickly shake myself out of it.

My sharp eyes assess the situation quickly, tearing my gaze away from Sasuke and looking down at the body on the floor. I can't help but gasp again when I realize that the body is actually Karin, the redhead from team taka who never seemed to care much for me at all.

With my chakra concealed rather perfectly, I could safely say Sasuke isn't aware of my presence, so I watch on carefully from above the opposite side of the bridge, wanting to know what he'd do next.

My jaw drops when he raises his hand and forms a chidori, staring down at Karin with a glare so cold I could feel it from where I'm spying. A weird sense of discomfort crawls up my back as I watch him stare down at Karin.

Sasuke. . . What the hell is he doing?

Before I could get up and run towards the two to prevent whatever the hell is going to happen to Karin, my gaze snaps towards Sakura who somehow managed to arrive after me.

She runs towards the two quickly and stops by the end of our side of the bridge. "Sasuke!" She yells out, effectively stopping his movements.

My eyes narrow at the scene, and the green monster of envy starts seeping into my very being, before I know it I'm scowling at Sakura and holding myself back from blowing my cover and pouncing on her.
