Masashi Kishimoto created Naruto. I am happy he did. I make no profit from this fic.
Losing His Student
He Walked Away...
{Kakashi's POV}
"Damn-it, damn!" There lay Naruto's lifeless body I thought I was to late, so close I don't want to think about it. I gathered him up he was so pale he lost too much blood he needs a medic there are none. I run back to the others hoping to save at least one of my students that day.
He was laid in the hospital bed looking little better then a corpse Sakura came in she looked so disappointed I felt disgust rising in my gut until she spoke.
"How could he?" She wiped away an errant tear. I wanted to slap her the boy risked his life to bring back that traitorous little puke. "How could Sasuke? Sensei? How could he do that to Naruto?" my heart wrenched and I felt my face softened, 'I am sorry for misjudging you Sakura.'
"I don't know why he did it or how he could justify it but..." I am trying to maintain my cool. It has been trying—that Naruto sure knows how to leave an impression. If he were to die I promised I'd go hunt that boy down myself, he'd not be coming back in one piece.
"I've been so awful to him, always, and he just smiles at me and keeps trying no matter what." Sakura was really upset. I walked out. She needed to spend some time alone with Naruto.
I waved her off, "I'm going to go get some coffee, would you stay here in case he wakes up?" I took a seat in the waiting room with my coffee and allowed myself to dose off. I don't know how long I slept there in that chair but man those things are killer on your backside.
"Sensei!" Sakura was screaming, "Kakashi-sensei! It's Naruto!" She was crying. I didn't wait for an explanation. I ran to his room. A rather large nurse blocked my way, "I'm sorry Hatake-sama you can't go in," I heard the heart monitor flat-lining. I fought panic. I'm losing another student! The nurse stepped aside as they pushed him out of the room, he was so pale it hurt to look at him, he was surrounded by Medic-nins and nurses. They guided the gurney to the waiting operating room. I watched through the window in horror as they prepped him for surgery. I know his heart must have been badly damaged, but I had thought they were able to repair the damage. They began to cut his chest open I had to leave.
They finally finished up with him and he was laying in a new bed in the intensive care unit. He should have been able to heal more quickly I know that boy better. It was wrong there's something very wrong. Naruto finally woke up. He startled me and that has to be a feat. He was just as frightened, however. He tried to remove the tube from his throat I had to stop him. He looked so frail it wasn't right. None of this was right. 'He's the one who never gives up, never gives in. He-he's the backbone of our team. He's our guts, our spirit. He is our light but something is snuffing him out. I have to stop this but I don't know how!'
He won't open up! That damn fake smile plastered on he tries to carry all of his pain alone. I can guess why he has never had anybody to care for him before. Now he does so why fake that your happy Naruto when it is obvious that you are in so much pain. I decided to let him come to me rather then opening up to him I hoped it was the right decision.
I set his hand down beside him, "Don't move around too much, you had to go in for surgery, you should be fine in a few weeks, but your heart had been nearly destroyed when-when Sasuke hit your chest with the chidori. Luckily the med-nins were able to repair most of the damage. Sakura was quite upset so I sent her home," He didn't move after that it was hard watching him sulking. He looked so full of hurt and hate, I was loosing him in another sense. I'm sorry Naruto.
Naruto had fallen asleep again. I brushed golden locks away from his face. They were so soft. His brow furrowed in is sleep all of his pain bled through to the surface. I could not look at all that pain, even an elite ninja like myself has limits. His face tortured me with implied wrongs. I decided to go get some rest we had been back from the mission for almost forty-eight hours and I had yet to set foot in my own apartment. "Good night Naruto, try to get some rest," I called softly as I pulled out my novel. I know, I know this was not the time for such foolish things but each of us react to stress differently. I am n different. I need something to distract me from this horrible reality. I left the boy to rest. hopefully the light of a new day would also bring with it a brighter Naruto.
