Sakura sighed as she made her way through Konoha at night in her pink kimono, eventually stopping at the bench where Sasuke first left her to go with Orochimaru for power so that he could face his older brother. She sat on it, letting the wind gently blow through her pink hair as she heard footsteps coming closer to her.

"Sakura? Are you okay?"

Sakura turned her head to see Jenna's older brother, Felix, who was wearing a dark green yukata and forest green pants.

"Thinking about him?" He asked, sitting down next to her.

"Yes." Sakura said, blushing as she remembered Sasuke tapping her forehead before he left on his journey.

"Don't worry. He'll come back." Felix said as he got up and left her.

Sakura watched as he left to board Piers' Lemurian ship that had been modified with the Wings of Anemos that he and his team acquired after Isaac and his team joined up after the ignition of the Jupiter Lighthouse so that they could gain access to the Mars Lighthouse, silently hoping that his words were true just before she sensed a powerful chakra presence next to her.

"I knew you'd come, Sasuke." She said, looking at the young Uchiha teen next to her.

Sasuke didn't say anything as he pulled Sakura up with his one arm before he wrapped it around her body. "I'm sorry you missed Naruto and Hinata's wedding." Sakura said, burying her face in his poncho.

"I honestly don't care about that." Sasuke said in his usual tone. "But I did keep my promise to you."

Sakura looked up at him. "What do you mean?"

"You're really annoying." Sasuke said, tapping her forehead. "But you're so beautiful nonetheless."

"You really think I'm beautiful?" Sakura asked, tears glistening in her eyes.

"Yes, you are." Sasuke said shortly before kissing Sakura lovingly on the lips.

Felix smiled at this through the telescope as he felt tears forming in his brown eyes.

"I hope that you and I would be together, Feizhi..." He said, remembering the violet haired young woman that he, Jenna, Sheba, and Piers had met in Champa shortly before hearing a familiar voice.

"Felix? You up there?" he looked over and saw Feizhi on the ground below him.

"Feizhi? Why are you here?"

She quickly scaled the rope ladder up to him. "You're rubbish at making goodbye letters!"

Felix chuckled. "It's not much of a strong subject."

"Anyways, you shouldn't leave for a hollow blackmail like that."

He was shocked. "Hsu told you? And it sounded pretty real."

"He would never really follow through, either way, you didn't have to leave."

"What?"

"Hsu took his words back." she smiled. "You can stay."

Felix was stunned. "You... did this for me?"

"Well, I had to repay you for beating you up in Xian somehow." he grinned and moved closer to her, putting his arms around her. He could smell the scent of her hair, and feel her breath on his face. She brushed his tears away with her left hand.

"Thank you. I'm really lucky to have someone like you." he said.

Feizhi didn't reply, but instead their heads moved together very slowly until their lips met in a long, deep, passionate kiss.
