I don't own Naruto or the song

Bold song lyrics

In a garden in a hand
Lies a key to shadow land
You're far from feeling strong
The worst begins

Sakura sat under her namesake, the last pastel pink petals falling from the branches as she gazed at the kunai in her hands and bit her bottom lip as tears started to well up in her eyes, she was always the weakest of the team. Of no use to anyone, and now they had all left her.

One lone tear feel as her grip on the bladed weapon tightened.


In the sediments of life
In the comfort of a knife
You hold your breath
And pray to god it won't take long

In one act she will be the strongest and weakest she has ever been, it would be quick. She shifted onto her knees and angled the kunai towards her, with a deep breath she closed her eyes and brought the blade towards her.

And you wonder where the rainbow ends
With its autumn setting sun

Her arms stopped suddenly, something had grabbed onto her writs go hard it hurt, she wondered who would care enough to stopped her?

She gasped as she opened her eyes to face who ever it was stopping her, eyes wide in realization of who it was.

"Kakashi-sensei!"


There's a way from it all
Though the chances are small
We'll come back again
Won't you think it over

No! he was not seeing this. He was not seeing his student try and end her life like he has seen his father, he had stopped her in time before the kunai punched her skin.

"Sakura! What in hell are you doing!?" his voce sounded like it was about to brake, like he was trying not to scream.

Or cry.


Life is a pendulous fall
But maybe worth the pain
And soon enough we'll go
Where nobody can touch us

He easily got the weapon from her grasp and forced her onto her back as he moved on top of her, pining her hands either side of her head.

"Please sensei, just let me go." she sobbed.

"Why Sakura? Why do something like this?" his voce was shaking to the point it did not sound like him anymore.

"Because it hurts to much."

Like a mother you were aimed
And you gave her what she claimed
Just like a good old friend
In the abyss of the mind
You found all there is to find
Bet we all have broken hearts to mend

"Your not the only one that is hurting Sakura," he pushed his headband up into his hair and then pulled down his mask, "Does it look like I'm pain free?"

She was shocked, not only had he openly shown his face but of the emotions shown init, then it dawned on her, what she was doing, and that he cared.


So you wonder where the rainbow ends
Where the world must have begun

He would not see another loved one end there life this way.


There's a way from it all
Though the chances are small
We'll come back again
Won't you think it over

She freed her arms from his grasped and wrapped them around his neck, he shifted so he was sitting up and pulled her into his lap. Sakura barred her face into the crock of his neck and cried heavily, every sob shook her body. Kakashi could feel her tears starting to soak his shirt as he rubbed her back in a comforting manna.

"I'm sorry Kakashi-sensei." she whimpered.

Life is a pendulous fall
But maybe worth the pain
And soon enough we'll go
Where nobody can touch us

He let her hold on to him as tight as she wanted, to the point he knew he would be left with marks in the morning, but he did not care about that.

"I know it hurts now Sakura-chan, and it may do for some time." he spoke softly.

There's a way from it all
Though the chances are small
We'll come back again
Won't you think it over

"Then why? Why go on?" she sobbed, tears starting to relent.

"For the people that love you, for the people that need you."

"The people that love me?"


Life is a pendulous fall
But maybe worth the pain
And soon enough we'll go

He hugged her tightly, "Trust me Sakura-chan, it will all be worth the pain." he smiled at her.

Life is a pendulous fall
But maybe worth the pain
(So you wonder where the rainbow ends)
Where nobody can touch us
