Disclaimer: New story, blah blah blah. Okay, as for my other stories. I'm, sorry for the long wait for all of them. In the 2-3 weeks, be on the lookout for the next chapter to ANBU Brother and Time Travel. In the next month or so, keep an eye out for the next chapter to A New Beginning. For Summaries, I need only 2 more reviews before I begin. So far, the 3 reviews I have are kind of iffy about both summaries, so its hard to choose.
Well, let's begin!
Chapter 1 – The Question
Sakura stared at the giant gates, anger and frustration swirling inside her. She didn't understand why her teammates still thought she was weak. She was trained with the Godaime! She surpassed her! She had her insane strength and extreme medical knowledge. It was frustrating that her team still thought of her as weak. She glared at the town over her shoulder.
'I'm leaving. And no one will stop me. They won't realize I'm gone until sometime tomorrow. Probably when we meet at the bridge.'
"Who cares. They'll probably be glad I'm gone so I'm not a burden anymore." She thought aloud.
"Why aren't you at home?" a voice said, startling her slightly. She immediately recognized the voice and kept her face blank and voice empty as she turned to them.
"What do you want, Sasuke?"
He was slightly taken aback, she could tell by the slight jerk of his shoulders and widening of his eyes. He was surprised she wasn't smiling, staring at him blankly, arms crossed, and saying his name without the affectionate –kun. He recovered quickly.
"I asked you aren't you at home?" he repeated, getting irritated. He couldn't understand why she was looking at him like that. Like he was lower than dirt…so far beneath her. It irked him. He didn't look right on her. Not to mention she was taking too long to answer.
She thought about her answer before deciding to just tell him an outright lie, that was partially true.
"Couldn't sleep, so I went for a walk."
"Yeah? Then why were you glaring at the gate and mumbling to yourself?" he asked, glaring at her slightly and stuffing his hands in his pockets. Her eyes slowly narrowed, and she decided to hit below the belt.
"Because it reminded me of when you left and broke up the team." She said angrily. He stiffened and looked away.
"That doesn't matter anymore." He said stiffly.
"Yes, it does. Because everything you do now is watched and recorded. If you think that you're off the hook just because you came back.."
"Unwillingly." He cut in.
"…and claimed that you made a mistake and want to repent for your crimes," she continued as if he hadn't said anything, "They're not going to let you off that easily. Your punishment doesn't end for a while."
"And how would you know? You weren't there when they told me my punishment." He said accusingly. She smirked.
"I was one of the ones who helped sentence you."
His eyes widened.
"You turned on you teammate?" he asked, now fully glaring at her. She held his glare.
"You turned on us first. And how's this for irony? You left us for some bastard snake and when we come to get you a couple of years later after the first attempt of getting you back, we kick your ass and drag you back. You left us for someone who didn't make you stronger, but weaker." She stressed the word weak and her voice grew colder with every word. He was also growing angrier with every word she uttered.
"Answer me this one question, Sasuke." She said, her eyes telling him she was serious. He felt his anger subside.
"What?" he asked coldly.
"What would you do is I left Konoha for good?"
