Chapter 4
A ninja charged towards us with a kunai knife in his hand. I pulled out my own kunai since I didn't know any jutsus. Naruto made a handsign and a whole bunch of shadow clones appeared. Sasuke jumped into the air, made a quick handsign, and breathed fire on the enemy ninja. The ninja looked right into my eyes and charged towards me, making a handsign and then putting his hand out in front of him. Naruto and his shadow clones jumped on the ninja, but the enemy just threw them off and kept walking towards me, his hand still out in front of him. I felt myself getting tired, weaker...
Kakashi dashed at the enemy and drop kicked him. But it was too late, because I felt like the life was drained right out of me. I dropped the kunai knife in my hand on the ground and toppled over onto my side. My vision was blurred, but I could still see Kakashi and the enemy ninja battling it out. Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura ran towards me and picked me up off the ground. I felt like a gummy worm, all floppy and weak. I heard Kakashi yell, "CHIDORI!" I turned to look, but the enemy easily dodged it.
Sakura stayed with me as Naruto and Sasuke ran off to join the fight. Sakura said not to worry, but her worried expression didn't help. "I think I can heal you..." she said, and then took out a pocket book. She started flipping through pages to look for a way to heal me, but it took way too long. I felt so weak, so drained...
I blacked out.

"Kimi. Kimi. Kimi," someone said, poking my face. "Naruto you idiot! Leave her alone!" Sakura said. My eyes fluttered open, and I sat right up. The hospital?
"Are you okay?" Naruto asked, looking really concerned. I rubbed the back of my head; there was a really bad pain there. But I just nodded and said, "I'm fine." I looked around. "Why are we here? We're supposed to be finding the thing that cursed me!" I said. Sakura sighed. "I'm sorry, we had to bring you back here. You were way too weak and we had no idea if you'd wake up," she said. This made me so angry. I was supposed to get rid of the curse by now, and I'd be free. But instead, I'm in the hospital. The beeps on the heart monitor got faster and faster, just as I got more upset. I mean, I should be rid of the curse by now!
"Calm down," Sakura said. I clenched my teeth and squeezed my eyes shut. "I--I can't," I whispered, clenching my fists. It's the stupid curse again. Sakura tried everything to calm me down. "It's not working," Naruto said, not sounding much like his happy self. He sounded really worried. Sakura clenched her teeth and her fists. "You try something, idiot!" Naruto sat down next to me and took my hand. Wha--?
He didn't say a word (which is amazing, 'cuz he's always babbling on about missions and learning new jutsus) and he just held my hand. I guess it worked, because after a while I calmed down completely. Sakura raised an eyebrow at Naruto. "We don't want this mission at a stand still, do we?" he said, getting up and grinning. I half-smiled gratefully.
"When we're out of this hospital, we're back on the road!" he shouted, pointing out the door. I chuckled. "Sure," I said, and Sakura just rubbed her head as if she had a headache. "Hey... Where's Sasuke and Kakashi?" I asked. Sakura pointed out the window. "Training right outside," she said, and then she stared out the window, probably at Sasuke. So Naruto gave up training to see me? Aww, that's sweet. I smiled.
"So when am I getting out of this stupid hospital?" I asked.
