Chapter Four: Healing
::Hospital, later in the day::
~Sanziya~
Well Naruto's bleeding was stable now, and they managed to give me the extent of his injuries.
He has 4 broken ribs, two cracked, a severe concussion, his vocal cords are badly damaged from all the screaming and that he may never be able to speak again.
As for his mental state, the haven't a clue as to wether or not he's sane.
And then they told me that no matter how hard they've tried, that the kanji carved into his stomach won't fade away. He would have to live with that for the rest of his life, curse those fools.
I suppose I got some sick satisfaction from being able to murder those bastards with my own hands. The Council gave us a secluded section in the forest, locked down the men's chakra systems, took away all their weapons, and placed a barrier around it so they couldn't escape. I think the best part was that they actually stayed and watched me as I slew them, even Sarutobi-sama. Sadly, they wouldn't make it a public execution, but I was allowed to take their heads and put them on pikes in the town square for a few days.
::Flashback, earlier that day (S.S, blood and gore, skip if need be)::
They just stood there lazily, as if they thought a kunoichi couldn't lay a hand on them, even after last night. They sneered at me and the leader stepped up, bandages around his neck.
"Tell me demon-bitch, did the demon-kid enjoy-?" he cuts himself off, making an obscene gesture with his hips.
That was it, the straw the broke the camel's back you could say. I disappear too fast for him to see with my enhanced speed, and came around back of him, wrapping my hand around his throat.
"You know, I was gonna castrate you and let you go on living, but now..."
I don't finish as I take out a kunai and infuse it with a jutsu of my own design: Fire Acid. I stab it into a non-lethal point on his body and jump back to watch.
He pulls it out, looking at me skeptically.
"That all you got whore?! Come on! Kill me why do-!" he's cut off as he starts to feel something eating away at the stab wound, he clutches at his chest and starts to shake uncontrollably as I grab his arm, ripping it off.
"Yeah fucker, that's all I got."
I grab him by the collar, punch him in the abdomen as I make sure to pull out a good amount of organs and make him see them.
"You see these? They're yours, and guess where they're going?" I ask, grinning sadistically at him. He doesn't reply, turning his face and spitting out blood to the side. "Answer me!"
I shake him wildly, slapping his face.
"I dunno...stupid...bi-bitch..." he replies as I thrust my hand into his chest; his heart falling to the ground beside him. He vomits up blood, glaring up at me as he sinks to the ground.
"Wrong answer." I perform a few quick hands seals, putting my fingers to his temples."I'm keeping you alive with the 'Endless Sorrow' Jutsu, enjoy your pain, now I'm gonna go deal with your friends, be a good boy ne?"
He flicks me off, growling. I smile, throwing him into the electric barrier and going to slaughter his friends, who, to my dismay, have already committed suicide. I pout a little, going back over to the leader.
"Guess what hun? We get to play more, your friends ran away on you."
You know, I guess as bloodthirsty as Soriyu is, even this was making him sick, because he took over and went ahead to castrate the guy, listening to him scream for a bit.
"You never hurt a woman's chick." Soriyu and I say, smiling as we crush his head as if it were a grape.
The Council looked positively green, even Sarutobi had turned away. I just grinned and looked down at my blood-soaked clothes.
"I'm done guys!" I called out cheerfully.
*Gonna need new clothes, sigh. Such a damper .*
::End Flashback::
I stand over Naruto's prone form, glaring at the medical report in my hand and looking up to glower at the nurse. I knew she was one of the people who despised his very being, so I was keeping my eye on her because if need be, I could heal him myself.
"If you do anything to harm him or not get him well to the 'best' of your abilities, and if you let the doctor do anything to harm him or not get him well to the best of 'his' abilities..." I start, my eyes turning a slight tinge of green.
She nods frantically before I can finish, quickly replacing his morphine IV drip and scurrying from the room. Naruto's eyelids twitch after a few minutes, and he groans slightly.
"You awake Naruto?" I ask as he gives a slight nod, not opening his eyes. "How are you feeling?"
He doesn't reply, instead, he shakes his head 'no'.
"Not too good huh? You feel well enough to talk?"
Another 'no'.
"Are you hungry?"
Another 'no'.
"You just want to get out of here don't you?"
He nods 'yes'.
"I thought so, I'll go check with the doctor on how long you'll have to be here."
He nods, and I sense the distinct drop in his chakra system as he sinks back into sleep.
I make my way down the corridor and into the office at the end.
"Dr. Kotimo?" I ask, knocking on the door lightly, he looks up from his paperwork to squint at me, his glasses lay discarded by the stack of papers.
"Yes, yes, what is it Nurse Aki?"
I snicker a bit before going over and picking up his glasses, handing them to him.
He looks at me again.
"Ah, thank you, that's much better, wait, you're not Aki. You're the woman with that Kyuubi b-" he stops, noticing the stony look in my eyes. "...Ah...what can I do for you and your son?"
"Not my son."
"Ah...of course. Well, your charge then."
I laugh slightly and clap him on the shoulder, smiling.
"I was just wondering when I could take him home?"
His face takes on a blank look for a moment, then starts going through his files. A look of enlightenment hits him as he locates a chart with NARUTO UZUMAKI scrawled across the top.
"Hm, well given all the injuries he's had I'd say we'd like to keep him for at least another week or until he fully heals."
"Alright then, I won't be going back down the corridor, when he awakens tell him what you just told me alright?
He nods, turning back to his paperwork as I exit.

::Konoha streets::
Sanziya makes her way through the net of villagers milling around the streets, frowning slightly.
'What's wrong my dear?' Soriyu asks sweetly.
*Oh cut the crap, bird.*
'I couldn't resist, but I know something's the matter.'
*Nothing, I'm just fearing for my son.*
'Liar, there's something else bothering you.'
*Fine you bastard bird. I'm worried that he may never speak again, that he may be a different person after he leaves the hospital, and wether or not any one will attack 'me'.*
'You'll just have to see won't you Sanziya?'
*I suppose I will.*
Sanziya opens the door to her house, stepping in.
*But that doesn't mean I'll let it.*
::Week later::
~Sarutobi~
I look at Sanziya, waiting patiently. Like always, she had just stormed into my office, however Naruto was right behind her. Of course I didn't mind this much, as she didn't threaten any guards this time and I wasn't busy. However, I wondered what could have her so angered. Especially to the point that she could have the door guards gasping for their breath at her killing intent. She closes the door, sealing it with a privacy jutsu, and sitting down in the chair for guests.
"Sarutobi, look at Naruto and tell me what's wrong." she tells me, her non-usage of a suffix indicating her anger. I glance down to Naruto, who sits beside my desk as always, at first I see nothing indicating what the angered woman in front of me may mean, but then I notice his eyes. They're blank and lifeless, not at all like the happy child I sent off with Sanziya some days ago.
"Naruto..." I say, sighing heavily as I reach down to pat his head. He flinches away slightly, but allows me to pick him up and put him on my lap.
"I see what you mean, his experience has left a very negative effect on his personality."
"I can see that! What is to be done about it? He won't speak to me, and the doctors say they've completely repaired his vocal cords!"
I sigh, rubbing my temple.
"I wouldn't know, maybe the experience has left him not wanting to speak. Or maybe he just doesn't trust anyone fully yet. After all, he hasn't known you for very long, even if you are his m-" she clamps a hand over my mouth before I can finish.
"I told you...not to speak of that." she tells me calmly, removing her hand.
"Sorry, it slips out you know, but for the moment I can only tell you to treat him as you were before, be caring, and maybe he'll slowly go back to his old self.
She stands up, picking up Naruto despite his shakiness, and nods to me.
"Thank you Sarutobi-sama." she replies, releasing the jutsu and exiting my office.
I put my elbows on the desk, fold my hands together and rest my chin upon them.
"I can only hope those results will happen."
