Okay so I felt like the original story was crap so I rewrote it and decided to tweak the story a bit. I'm sorry if you're pissed at me right now. I used paramore songs even though I don't own 'em so here's the order.
Stop this song (Lovesick Melody)
This Circle
I don't own Naruto.

You say the sweetest things and I
Can't keep my heart from singing along to the sound of your song
My stupid feet keep moving to this 4/4 beat, I'm in time with you
Whoa, to this 4/4 beat I would die for you (die for you)
(Someone stop this)
I've gone to far to come back from here, but you don't have a clue
You don't know what you do to me
Won't someone stop this song, so I won't sing along
Someone stop this song, so I won't sing..
She spun round and round rivaling a bat out of hell in speed.
I never let love in so I could keep my heart from hurting
The longer that I live with this idea, the more I sink into this 4/4 beat
I'm in time with you
Whoa, to this 4/4 beat I would die for you (stop this song)
I've gone to far to come back from here, but you don't have a clue
You don't know what you do to me
I've come to far to get over you, and you don't have a clue
You don't know what you do to me
Can't someone stop this song, so I won't sing along
Someone stop this song, so I won't sing
A kunai in each hand she killed all of her clients enemies.
Your lovesick melody is gonna get the best of me tonight
But you won't get to me if I don't sing
It creeps in like a spider
Can't be killed, although I try and try to
Well, don't you see I'm falling?
Don't wanna love you, but I do
Her clothes were stained with blood and she cackled at the hundreds of dead bodies continuing to pile up.
(Lovesick melody) Can someone stop this song, so I won't sing along?
(Lovesick melody) Can someone stop this song, so I won't sing?
Your lovesick melody is gonna get the best of me tonight
But you won't get to me, no
You won't get to me 'cause I won't sing
She slowly ceased and licked a drop of blood off of one of her kunais. Still laughing she slowly walked in the direction of her home her hair dripping with blood.

He was exhausted.
He didn't care if it took a nasty bite out of his pride. He was tired. He sat down on the ground and stared at the usually energetic Uzumaki Naruto breathing in and out. Obviously he was exhausted too.
"Oi. Teme. How's about you just go back to Konoha? We're both tired as hell, Itachi and Oro-dude are dead and I really don't wanna have to embarrass you by smacking your sorry ass down." Naruto said between breaths.
"Dobe." Sasuke said with a smirk. Kakashi must have already killed Hebi. He thought as he and Naruto slowly rose up from the ground and into fighting positions.

"ACHOO!!" Kakashi sneezed while reading his book. Three dead bodies were below the tree he was sitting on.
"Naruto. I know I'm sexy but could you and Sasuke please stop thinking about me? It's making me sneeze" Kakashi said into the mic.
"Ugh! Who'd wanna think about you?! You perv! It's probably Sasuke thinking about you. He is gay you know." Naruto replied dodging a hit from Sasuke.

"Dobe." Sasuke said in a hazardous tone. He pulled out two shuriken and threw them at him.
"HA!" Naruto said dodging the first one but was hit right in the center of his forehead causing him to cry out in pain.
"BASTARD!" Naruto yelled with anime tears. "Kakashi get your ass over here!"
A puff of smoke appeared on a tree beside them.
"Sasuke think about this." He said as the pair exchanged punches and multiple weapons, "Itachi is dead, Orochimaru is dead, Hebi is dead. You only have one goal left and in order to complete that goal you need a stable home. Just come with us back to Konoha."
"Yeah and most importantly there is me and Kakashi. Even though you're 'strong'. You can't face two powerful shinobi." Naruto said with a cheeky grin.
Suspense choked the air as Sasuke and Naruto came to a halt to allow him to think about his answer, "Okay. Fine."
"Let's go my pupils. We will leave for Konoha now." He said leading the two men to the path. Then they walked down the path heading for Konoha.
Only a few hours of walking with a pervy sensei, a loudmouthed blonde and an only one syllable word using bastard.
…
Woohoo. I'd love to be on that trip!
…
…
"25 cups of ramen on the wall. 25 cups of ramen! You take one down pass it around 25 cups of ramen in the wall!" Naruto said trying to break the silence.
BAM
Ohh! Smacked right into a tree!
And that makes the score Sasuke: 126 and Naruto: 5.
Better luck next time Naruto.
Mwahahahahaha.

"Tsunade-sama?" Shizune said poking trying to wake up the Hokage.
"hmpngnmp"
"Tsu-na-de-sa-ma." Shizune said sternly. "I didn't want to have to do this but you asked for it Tsunade-sama"
Poke.
Stir.
Poke. Poke.
Stir. Groan.
Poke. Poke. Poke.
Jolt. Glare.
"You wouldn't wake up so I had to!" Shizune said defending herself.
"And why did I have to be woken up?"
"Uzumaki Naruto, Hatake Kakashi and Uchiha Sasuke have returned to the village."
"Send them in!" Tsunade shouted. Shizune sweat dropped.
"Umm they're right there." Shizune said pointing to the three forms sitting on three separate sofas.
"Yo!" Kakashi said waving his hand in a casual manner. Naruto was cracking up in his chair while Sasuke's face was impassive.
"Don't speak to me casually! YOU THREE LEFT THE VILLAGE WITHOUT PERMISSION!! Do you have any idea how much trouble you caused for me?! How much paperwork I went through?! How much pain Sakura went through?! Kakashi, Naruto you were gone for 3 years and Sasuke for 7. SEVEN!!"
"Tsunade-sama we have discussed this already amongst ourselves and have decided to face the consequences as long as we get to come back to our home." Kakashi said.
"Very well then your punishment will be commu-"
BANG
"Tsu-tsu-chaaan! I have the paperwork!" A voice said slamming open the doors to Tsunade's office open.
Yes. I, Sakura Haruno just called the fifth Hokage Tsu-tsu-chan.
Why?
Because I am fucking amazing.
She wore a fishnet shirt and right over it was a red tube top with the Haruno symbol on her back. She also wore dark denim skinny jeans with the weapons holder on her right thigh. Black ninja sandals covered her feet all the way up to her knees and black gloves covered her hands. Her black elbow warmers were decorated with pins from different places and sayings. Two rings decorated her middle fingers. One was of a heart and the other of a black skull. Her pastel pink hair was tied into a loose low bun and bright orange headphones covered her ears and hung at the back of her head. Her hitai-ate was wrapped around her waist.
I had a friend in America who sent the headphones Ipod, skinny jeans and apple laptop that was at her apartment.
I walked over to Tsunade pretending not to notice my three ex-teammates. "Here. Oh and I added five extra pages just to tweak you off." I said grinning. Tsunade stared at (Fucking awesome and magical) me.
Stare.
Blink.
Stare.
Blink. Blink. Blink.
Stare.
Blink. Blink. Yawn. Blink. Blink.
"Sakura?"
"Yes Tsu-tsu-chan?"
"Have you noticed anyone else in this room besides me, you, Shizune and Tonton?"

I slowly turned around and saw them.
"Ara? When'd they get here?" Tsunade sighed deeply while the rest sweat dropped.
"Are you serious?" She asked.
"Nah! I already knew they were here. I could smell they're blood." I said grinning.
Yes I am grinning.
Why am I grinning?
Because even though I was ditched by the love of my life, later ditched by my bestyest friends and had my life ruined by a certain incident. I am a happy person. And when I say happy I mean happy as in Batman's worst enemy Joker why-so-serious happy.
"I swear you are going to turn me into a 100 year old woman."
"But Baa-chan! You're already 100!" Naruto said grinning. A pen was sent toward his direction. Kakashi snickered at the comment while Sasuke chuckled.
O.O
I know. Scary isn't it? Funny how an Uchiha can make someone shit their pants by laughing at Uzumaki.
"Your punishment is to gain Sakura's trust. If you give me the three key secrets about Sakura you will be given statuses and missions of your own. You will attend missions with her, live with her and protect her. Whatever she says goes." Tsunade said to the three men.
I love Tsu-tsu-chan like a mother but seriously I have to say this.
Bitch.
Le Gasp! I just had the most awesomest idea evah!
My face turned impassive and I chuckled darkly.
"Ara? I guess they'll never see another one of their own missions. They'll die with nothing to remember them by." I said smirking.
Mwahahahahahaha.
"Yeah. Sakura. If you're going to say that at least say it when you're not covered in blood. Take a freakin' shower." Tsunade stated.
Damnit! Totally ruined the I-am-Sakura-hear-me-roar atmosphere!
"If she needs protection on her missions then she shouldn't be a Shinobi." Sasuke said not even bothering to look at me.
"I don't need protection Uchiha-san. Tsu-tsu-chan is just worried about me being on S-class missions." I retorted not even bothering to look at him.
HA! Take that motherfucker!
"If the Hokage is worried about a shinobi on a mission then that person is not fit to go on that particular mission." Sasuke declared.
"Tsunade's like my kaa-chan. So it's only natural for someone to worry about his or her loved one when that loved one is faced with a life or death situation. If a person has the power to make that loved one safer during that situation then of course the power would be used. Dumbass" Sakura said glaring at the Uchiha boy who in return glared back.
Smart and snappy. I am proud of myself.
"Sakura! Behave!" Tsunade said. I turned toward the door and walked towards it.
"Where are you going Sakura-chan?" Naruto asked. I turned my head slightly.
"I am going to go fuck a random stranger."
…
Awkward silence
…
"Seriously?" Kakashi asked.
Sa-chan was right! That line does fuck up someone!
I turned back to the door and pushed them open I responded only looking a Tsunade. I treated the question as if it were the her's.
"Nah. Ima take a shower." The three boys fell anime style while Shizune sweat dropped and Tsunade sigh deeply.
"Follow her to her apartment and get some rest!" Tsunade shouted. The boys immediately shot right up and out the door before Tsunade got mad.
"She has another mission tomorrow." Shizune said.
"Hmm. Knowing Sakura the first secret will be found out soon. If they haven't heard it from the citizens of course." Tsunade said twisting her chair around to gaze at the city.

I walked down the streets of the town hands stuffed in my pockets and the three assholes trailing behind me. Together. Just like the old days.
We were so blind to the pain and suffering that were going to come in the next few years. They were so blind to the pain I've been suffering with since I was born.
Wow. That whole thought just made me depressed.
"It's that Haruno girl." A woman whispered to her friend.
"Hmph. It's only a matter of time before she drains our city clea-"
I halted and glared at the two gossiping women who immediately shut up after my Ima-eat-you-if-you-don't-shut-the-fuck-up glare. Sasuke, Naruto and Kakashi couldn't hear them since the women were a few blocks away. I could hear them clearly because my senses were higher than humans.
"What's wrong Sakura-chan?" Naruto asked concerned.
"Do you really have the right to add –chan to my name?" I asked not facing him. His eyes saddened. He really was sorry he left.
"Oh. Sorry Sakura-san." He apologized sadly. We continued to walk down the streets. Every single civilian stood out of the way for them. Creating a large gap. I stayed silent during their walk while the trio had a very interesting conversation.
"So…Sasuke." Naruto said.
"What dobe?" Sasuke asked annoyed.
"Are you…gay?" Sasuke glared at him.
"Naruto. He's been with two guys and an ugly ass whore. I'll be surprised if he hasn't turned gay." Kakashi said grinning under his mask.
"Hmm. True." Naruto said in a thinking position.
"First. I am not gay. Second. I will never be gay. And third. Why the fuck are you even asking dobe? I swear if you are secretly in love with me I will kick your ass until you aren't." Sasuke hissed.
"Wow. I am amazed that you actually said more than one word Sasuke. Soon you'll be able to say paragraphs with emotions besides anger and sadness!" Kakashi said with a grin.
"I'm not gay! I love Hinata-chan!" Naruto protested.
…
...
"I just said that really loud didn't I?" Naruto said.
"At least he's grown some smarts while I was gone." Sasuke said scoffing.
"Think of the bright side! You don't have to confess to her! She, and probably half the town, knows now!" Kakashi said patting Naruto on the back. I sighed. Fucking jerks don't even know the meaning of silent do they?
"Oi! Give me your bags and go visit who ever you want to visit. Your voices are annoying me. Except you Uchiha. God knows what'll happen if I leave you alone in a town full of people who hate you and others who want to rape you. My address is xxx Waterfront avenue." I said with bitterness and disgust when I said Sasuke's last name.
"You sure you aren't one of the ones who want to rape me Haruno?" Sasuke asked using the same tone with my last name.
Oh? This'll be fun.
"Positive" I said receiving Naruto's large bag and then Kakashi's. Using a twist of sarcasm I retorted, "Would you like me to carry your bag too Ms. Uchiha? You look quite weak."
"Says the girl who couldn't even beat Yamanaka." Sasuke said passing me by. I glared. Hard.
Sometimes don't you just wish that you could cause someone pain by just looking at them?
"Sasuke! Stop being an asshole!" Naruto yelled. Kakashi had turned the corner. Searching for Anko's house.
"Go away pest. I can handle my own fights" I barked to Naruto as I swung the two bags on my back and continued to walk.
How dare he interrupt!
Naruto gave her a sad look and walked to the direction of the Hyuuga manor.
Take this time to realize
That you always shut your eyes
In the midst of trial
And everything is always right
And I think that it's time
This battle must be won
But you pushed it aside
Pushed it aside
Pretend that it's gone
I tuned out the world again. Ignoring the smells, the sights, the sounds and even the feeling of me being there.
This circle never ends
And it's time you just face it, don't pretend
That it's over
This circle never ends
And it's time you just face it, don't pretend
That it's over
Ever since they did it to me. Everyone treated me different. I went from the loveable Cherry Blossom to the blood stained monster.
Take this time to realize
That you always force a smile
In he midst of trial
And everything is always right
And I think that it's time
This battle must be won
But you pushed it aside
Pushed it aside
Pretend that it's gone
When Sasuke left. I was heartbroken. But when Kakashi and Naruto left. My whole being shattered. Was I really that forgettable?
This circle never ends
And it's time you just face it, don't pretend
That it's over
This circle never ends
And it's time you just face it, don't pretend
That it's over
Was I really that weak?
And it never ends
It never ends
And it never ends
And it never ends
No, it never ends
Was I really that useless?
This circle never ends
And it's time you just face it, don't pretend
That it's over
This circle never ends
And it's time you just face it, don't pretend
That it's over, it's over
Yeah I was. But not anymore.
I stopped the movement of my feet and cut off my music. Lowering my headphones to meet my neck I turned towards Sasuke.
"We're here"
"Aa" He responded.
If you could actually call that a response.
I walked up the stairs to my large apartment glancing back every turn to make sure Uchiha was following. I placed my hand on the center of my door allowing my chakra to flow into it and unlock it.
"Only my chakra can open the door but I'll fix the seal so that you, Kakashi and Naruto can get in." I said walking inside and closing the door after he got in. I walked over to the kitchen.
"This is the kitchen. That room right there is TV room. Go down the hallway. Three doors down. The room next to mine. You can tell it's mine coz the door's orange. The door across my room is the closet. Get a futon from there. Do not touch the pink flowery one. At the end of the hallway is the bathroom. I'm going to take a shower so don't go in while I am got it?" I explained skipping pass him and into the hallway.
"Where did you get all that blood from?" He asked. I halted and forced my head to turn to face him.
"Where do you think?" I asked with a taunting smile and continued to skip to the bathroom.
After my one hour shower I walked down the hallway to the kitchen only to meet my ex-teammates. Kakashi reading his book on the dinner table, Naruto spewing water from his mouth from seeing me in only a towel (smirk) and Sasuke watching my every movement from the counter.
Probably staring at my ass. Le Gasp! Sasuke you perv!
I grabbed a cup and filled it with water gulping all of it down and putting it in the sink.
"Make sure you clean up the water you just spit out Uzumaki." I said walking to my room a grin on my face. His face was bright pink and he was flustered trying to clean up his mess with a towel.
I changed into black short shorts and a white tank top and plopped onto my sofa flipping the channels.
"You three all unpacked?" I asked still staring at the screen.
"Aa" Uchiha answered from right next to me on the sofa.
"Yes." Kakashi said not bothering to look up from his book.
"Yup!" Naruto said from the chair next to me with a bright smile on his face.
"Do you have your futons ready?" I asked again.
"Aa." I swear if he answers another one of my questions like that. I will kick his ass to Suna. Then I will go there burry him up to his head and tell Panda-kun (Gaara) to make a sandstorm so that he will die from suffocation.
"No" Kakashi said getting up.
"Nope!" Naruto said getting up as well.
"The door across my room is the closet. Do not touch the flowery pink one or I will dress you up as a cookie and feed you to the cookie monster" I said still flipping channels.
"Where'd you get that threat from?" Naruto said laughing.
"My mind. The place that you really don't want to see right now. It's picturing you being eaten alive by the cookie monster." I said staring at him with my scariest grin. Well, not scariest 'coz I really don't want the smell of shit in my apartment. Naruto dashed to the closet getting his futon trying to forget my comment.
"You opened the door for them?" I asked Uchiha.
"Aa" He answered watching TV. I glared at him.
"Have you ever read a dictionary?"
"No. I never have time to" He answered.
"Ah! It speaks actually words!" I said throwing my hand in the air. He smirked.
Don't smirk at me you fucking bas-
"Sakura-san! Is that flowery pink one yours?" Naruto asked walking back into the room plopping back on the single seater sofa. Kakashi sat on the other one next to Sasuke. My eyes saddened.
"No. It's my little sister's." I said staring at my lap.
"You have a sister?! Can we meet her?!" Naruto said clearly excited. I closed my eyes imagining her smile and her sparkling emerald eyes.
"She died a three years ago." I said my eyes still closed.
"Oh. I'm sorry Sakura-san" Naruto said ashamed.
"It's fine. Don't pity me." I said opening my eyes again to glance at him.
"How old was she?" Kakashi asked.
"Thirteen. She had just been assigned a team." I said smiling at the memory of her rushing in the house to tell me. It was quiet for a while.
"Are you guys hungry?" I asked getting up. They nodded. I raided the fridge and the cabinets searching for food.
"And the choices are. A. Ramen. B. Ramen or C. Tomatoes." I muttered loud enough for them to hear me. I handed the ramen bowls to Naruto and Kakashi but gave Sasuke a bowl full of tomatoes.
"How did yo-" Sasuke asked but was cut off by Sakura.
"Uchiha. Think. I used to love you to the extent of stalking." I said with a smile.
"Creepy." Naruto muttered under his breath.
"Does anyone else know?" He asked taking a bite into the tomato.
"Well they didn't until Naruto-san and Kakashi-san left. Then I sold it to your fan girls for cookies." I said grinning as I plopped down on the couch with a water bottle full of a red substance.
"Cookies? You sold information about me to a bunch of stalkers for cookies?" Sasuke said raising a brow.
"Hey! They were some damn good cookies! And think about it this way. You don't ever have to buy tomatoes again. When they find out you're back they'll send you loads of 'em. Then again they could be filled with love potions. Well. You're screwed. Oh and because I am nice I'll warn you. I'm pretty sure Ami has rabies so beware." I said taking another sip of my drink and flipping the channel.
"Bitch." Sasuke said sending a death glare my way.
I grinned, "I know! Oh yeah. I have another mission tomorrow so make sure you pack up. I don't give a shit if you are tired. If you bring me down I will not hesitate to kill you."
They stayed silent but I could smell they're surprise. I gulped down the rest of my drink.
"I'm going to bed. I'd suggest you three do to. If not I'll give you a warning. Do not sneak out of this apartment because the only way to get in is through my chakra." I said and walked to my room.

:Dreaming:
My foot was tied to a pole using chakra strings and I was slowly falling into unconsciousness.
"NEE-CHAN!! SAVE ME!" I heard Yuki call from upstairs.
"Yu-yuki? Yuki?! YUKI!!" I called struggling to keep conscious. My hands dug into the ground trying to pull myself to the stairs to save her. I blacked out.
When I awoke. Yuki was there dead. Wounds from needles all over her body. Her eyes were wide open from fear. Frustrated tears ran down my cheeks as I held her body close. I came to late. I couldn't save her.
"Yuki. Wake up. Please. Don't die. Don't leave me. I promise. I'll get revenge. I will kill them." I hugged her tighter and tighter.
"Sakura. Are you ready for another experiment?" A male figure asked.
"Your sister didn't survive it. But hopefully you will! Don't worry it won't hurt!" A female figure said. They bother drew closer with needles in their hands and a strange dark red liquid inside. I hugged Yuki tighter. My eyes wide in fear.
"No. No. NO!" I screamed.
:End dreaming:
"NO!" I screamed opening my eyes. Panting I tried to recollect my breath and sat up only to see Uzumaki, Hatake and Uchiha sitting next to my futon. They were worried about me. I pushed them out of the way and stood up. I ran to the kitchen and splashed water in my face calming down.
"Bad dream?" Kakashi asked worried.
Damn should've gone to the bathroom.
"Yeah." I answered cursing at my own stupidity to allow them to see this part of me. I sat down on one of the dinner table chairs resting my elbow on the table and my forehead in my hands.
"You wanna talk about it?" Naruto asked.
"No" I snapped glaring at him. I closed my eyes. Naruto pulled out the chair next to me while Sasuke sat in front of me.
Gumballs, how I wish he wasn't.
"Sakura-san. Even if you hate us just know that we are here for you. Even Sasuke!" Naruto said with a smile. My bangs covered my eyes and I grinned murderously.
"You say that now but by tomorrow when you find out what I am. You'll be running right out that door. Just like all the others. In fact it'll be better that way."
"What do you m-" Sasuke asked but was cut off. I got up making the chair screech and when I was at the beginning of the hallway I finally spoke.
"Goodnight all." I continued to walk down the hallway and into my room where I slept without a sound.
