Umm…not much to say about it. It basically follows the summary. Enjoy!

Chapter 1: The S-rank Mission

Sakura's POV

"Don't you dare touch this child!" A boy in my dream yelled. He was putting his arms out, protecting me. Was this a memory in the past that I had forgotten? I looked at the boy, a fan crest shape. 'The Uchiha Clan!' "Daijoubu?" I blinked. "Hai." "Why don't you play with me?" I nodded. We were having so much fun.

Dream ends

I woke suddenly 'Who was that child?' I got up and dressed myself. I headed to my okaa-san, Tsunade, since my parents died. "Any new missions for me?"

"Ichi." My mom handed me the packed. "Find the Akatsuki, join them, and try to find as much info as you can on them." I nodded.

"This is early, but I apologize for any damage that will be done to the village."

"Daijoubu. You are to leave right now." I nodded and left after I packed. I ran after the sun had set already. I ran for hours until I started getting sleepy. I slept on one of the high branches.

Itachi's POV

I was taking a walk at night. 'Someone's here.' "Dare?" I looked up to see a pink-haired girl sleeping with a scratched headband. 'What was her name? I remembered it being a cherry blossom.' "Sakura! Sakura-san!" 'Was she planning to find me for Konoha? Datte, I still have to bring her.' I quietly ran up the tree to retrieve her and her backpack she had brought along with her.

Sakura's POV

'Uchiha, Uchiha Itachi. That was his name.' I woke up and found myself in an elegant room. "Knock, knock." I squealed. "Dare?!"

"Uchiha, Itachi." I gasped. Now I was shocked and in a trance. I walked to the door and opened it. I stood there, frightened. He kneeled. "I won't harm you, Sakura-san. Come with me." I nodded and followed. "Why don't you introduce yourself to the others?" A blonde guy ran to me with a ceramic figure that talked.

"It…talked?!" I got scared and hid behind my only protector.

"Deidara, please do not show her a disturbing trick of yours."

"Fine." I heard a small bark. I looked at the ceramic puppy wagging its tail happily.

"Kawaii. Pochi! Arigatou, Deidara-kun." He smiled. "Am I with the Akatsuki?"

"Hai." 'Why was Itachi here?'

"Ne, Itachi-kun, tell me that my childhood protector and friend isn't an S-class criminal and a missing nin."

"I am."

"USO-TSUKI!" I ran into the room where I came from and closed the door with my strength, locked it, and cried on the bed. 'I can't believe…doshite? DOSHITE?!'

So, uh, yeah, here's the first chapter. Please review, I do take light flames. Oh, and if there is something wrong with how the paragraphs are formatted, do not flame me for that because my computer doesn't input it correctly so it sometimes gets squished together making it hard to read. So, that is why I need people to review for me. I'll update if people like it.
