"Oi, Sakura-chan! Sakura-chan!" A voice screamed, from the open window.

The sleeping girl shivered and turned in her bedsheets, oozing into the pillow happily. Ignoring the loud noise trying to gain her attention. She was in no mood for talking to her teammate. 1 hour ago, did she just arrive at the Konoha gates, from a very long travel mission. A peaceful slumber is what she wants.

"SAKURA-CHAN! SAKURA-CHAN! This is serious! Tsunade-sama told me to go and get you!" Her blonde teammate yelled frantically, afraid of the older woman's anger, if he doesn't get her to come with him.

Growling, the pinkette tossed the pillow onto her floor. Placing her hands on the fluffiness of her bed, she pushed herself up lazily, and sat down. Her palms then trailed upwards and rubbed her eyes gently, to stay awake.

"Coming," she snarled silently beneath of her breath.

Standing up, Sakura headed for her wide-open window. Peeking outside, she spotted Naruto standing underneath and looking up towards her, with his famous puppy eyes.

Putting her foot on the windowsill, she crouched and took off, leaping forward in a swift movement. Landing perfectly in front of the blond. Standing her ground, Sakura turned her head hastily, making her long pink looks tumble across her face. Her hair has gotten much longer since her younger teen years, it now reached to the end of her back, and she usually kept her hair free, at least when laying in her bed.

"Is it a new mission?" Sakura asked sternly, feeling pain shoot through her skull bones.

Naruto nodded quickly in reply and grabbed her arm, pulling her alongside him. Sakura rolled her eyes angrily to herself and scoffed at Tsunade for already getting her on a new mission, when she only wanted to lay in her bed and get a good night sleep.

It didn't take them long to arrive at the hokage tower, Naruto was after all fast with getting Sakura to the required place. "Stop pulling so hard Naruto, I won't run away if Tsunade-sama called for me..." Sighing, the two strolled through the corridor leading to the older woman's office.

Knock. Naruto hurriedly put his knuckled hand on the door and hit it softly. After a few second, he received the reply he had wanted to hear, a calm "come in" met their ears. Opening the door, Naruto smiled sheepishly towards Sakura who raised an elegant eyebrow up in question. Then it happened, Naruto placed his hand on her back and emitted chakra from his palm, pushing her inside.

"Sorry Sakura-chan!" He called out and slammed the door shut, leaving Sakura alone with her teacher.

Glaring back at the now shut door, Sakura put her hands together and squeezed. "Na-ru-to…! Just you wait! When I get a hold of you!"

A small cough made her rotate her head towards the speaker. Bowing, Sakura greeted her teacher with respect. "Tsunade-sama, what do you need me for?"

Having her eyes closed and smiling hugely, Sakura spoke slowly, "I was just trying to sleep, since I have just gotten back from a very long mission. Tsunade-sama."

Taking a sip of her sake bottle, Tsunade gave her a knowing look. "Skip the sarcasm, my dear student."

"Fine…" Sakura muttered, staring closely onto her teacher's next move.

Setting down the sake bottle quietly on its' spot of the desk, Tsunade slammed her hands onto the wooden fabrics. Wearing an ice-cold expression. "There is a rumour saying that all of the Akatsuki members are back to life. I can only suspect that it is the resurrection jutsu formed by Orochimaru."

Sakura's eyes widened by the news. "But who would want to get them back? Orochimaru is dead himself, Kabuto as well. The Akatsuki had already been rescued ones. Who can it be now? "

Tsunade adverted her gaze from meeting with Sakura's clear green orbs. "The rumours are… It has something to do with Uchiha Sasuke. "

"Sasuke? Isn't he on a secret mission right now? "Sakura wondered, tilting her head a bit to the side, curious on her response.

"He is, but we have lost contact. There is no sign of his whereabouts. The only information we currently have. Is that he was last seen in ame. "

"That's where the Akatsuki's main base is at… And you want me to go there and…?" Sakura asked, yawning somewhat. She was after all still sleepy.

"Spying, retrieve information. What will he do with the cold-blooded origination. Start another war? I'm uncertain Sakura. I thought he had changed with the fight between him and Naruto, but I don't know what to think anymore. You need to get with the bottom of this. I don't care how you do it, just do it. "she spoke slowly, taking a small breath after finishing the sentence.

Nodding in respond, "And I take it you want me to leave now, right Tsunade-Sama? "Sakura grabbed a hold of her knee pouch and brought a small scroll. "This is from my last mission, I found it on the way of my travels."

"I'll take my leave now, will let you know when I have found him." Tsunade clapped her hands firmly, mumbling a "be careful".

"Hai, Hai. Goodbye for now!" Our cherry blossom yelled and stepped outside of the hokage office, leaning her back against the closed door.

'I need to chase after Sasuke again, I'm already tired of this. I have gotten it clear to my head, he has no feelings for me, and I will no longer have any feelings for him. Yet I must meet him this soon? And not only him, but the Akatsuki as well…' Sakura thought inwardly, shaking her head, walking in a quick pace. Turning a corner of the corridor, until it finally leads outside.

Standing outside of the hokage tower, she was met with Ino and Sai hugging each other. 'I'm happy for Ino, they make a great couple!' Smiling towards herself, she walked pass them without giving them a greet, there was no use for chit-chatting now. She has a mission to complete.

Quickening her pace, Sakura hurried towards the Konoha gates. Standing still and turning her head back to look at her village, she smiled uncertainly. "I doubt I'll be back soon, my sweet home."

Fingers were sliding into her pouch, grabbing a tassel and using it to tie her hair into a high ponytail. "There, now I'm ready." Taking the remaining steps outside of the village, Sakura wore an empty façade. That type of expression, you had no idea what went through her mind.
