Chapter One .. Sakura

"WE HAVE TO MOVE! THERE'S TOO MANY!" All four of us were surrounded by at least 40 ninja. High ranking ninja as well.

"Damn it, there must be something we can do." I turned around to face Kakashi

"There's nothing,"

"I'LL FIGHT THEM!" Naruto shouted "TAJū KAGE BUNSHIN NO JUTSU!"

"Naruto…it wont work," I said as softly as I could

"Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu!"

"Sasuke…"

"Raikiri !"

"Kakashi.."

All three of them would exhaust their chakra and get captured. Guess I'll have to join in wont I. How did we get into this mess in the first place? All we had to do was deliver a scroll to Suna. To Gaara. I think Kakashi said it would be a simple B-ranked mission. I guess not.

"Shōsen Jutsu !"

I'd hit a few ninja in about 20 minuets, it wasn't going to be enough. I hid myself in a near by tree, to my advantage no-one noticed that I was gone.

"Where's that pink haired girl gone ?" So someone did notice I was gone, luckily enough for me he was right in front of tree I was hiding in. I covered his mouth so he couldn't shout for help. Pulling him back to my shadows I could see he was younger than me. Nevertheless a kunai went into his back, I let go of his mouth so he'd scream. Whoever was left had gone. His scream will ring in my ears for days now, never had I heard such terror. I came out from my shadows.

"Sakura ..?" Kakashi looked at me, blood all over him.

"Is that your blood ?" I walked over to him

"No, what did you do?"

"Nothing you wouldn't do,"

Sasuke and Naruto were on the ground, collapsed from exhaustion. I walked over to them and picked Sasuke up, "Can you pick Naruto up? We need to move," He slowly walked over to him and picked him. It must have been a good couple of hours, my legs were beginning to shake from the extra weight and my chakra was slowly depleting.

"We have to stop Kakashi, I can't carry Sasuke anymore,"

I leant him against a tree with Naruto next to him, Kakashi sat down somewhere else so I went off to sit with him. I leant my head against his shoulder, his arms slowly wrapped around my waist. "Go to sleep Sakura, you'll need to sort those two out in the morning,"
I pushed what little chakra I had left into my hand and reached for Kakashi's face. My chakra seeping into his skin, mixing with his. I couldn't stay awake any more.


Flashback mixed with thoughts… (Whoa… )

"Will this be an easy mission Kakashi?" Naruto and Sasuke were back to their normal selves, must have been after that very good kiss I gave Kakashi.

"Yeah, it should be, it's only to deliver a scroll to Gaara,"

"So we're going to Suna,"

"Well done dobe.." Sasuke smirked at him

"Shut up teme!"

"We should be back in the next couple of days then," I looked up to Kakashi, where I was attached to him arm, he looked down at me and smiled

"Hopefully, if nothing goes wrong,"

There was no rush to get there, so we didn't waste any chakra. Thinking about it now, I'm glad about our decision. Damn mask, Damn Sasuke & Naruto. If they weren't there, I'd make him go maskless. His smile would be enough to make me go weak, just to feel warmth inside.

"Sakura-Chan? Are you there?" Stupid Naruto…

"What Naruto?"

"Have you got any food? I forgot mine," I looked at him, " Sasuke & Kakashi wont give me any," I laughed ah him

I let go of Kakashi and went through my bag, I must have something small for him.

"Naruto, I don't have anything small. There's a pub coming up soon. I'm sure we can stop and get something there," Kakashi knew I must've been talking to him

"Sure, why not? It must be near lunch time any way,"

We had made our way to a small but busy pub, just the way we like it. I had chose a table at the back for obvious reasons, before we entered we took off our hitai-ates' off to not arouse suspicions.

"What can I get you miss?" I turned my head to see young black haired man

"Err… 4 glasses of water and 4 bowls of miso ramen,"

"I suppose I can get someone to cook you ramen, only because you asked," I could hear Kakashi softly growing at him, I held his hand and looked at him. "I'll be over in about fifteen minuets," And he left us.

"Thanks for the ramen Sakura-Chan," Naruto said with mouthfuls of ramen

"What are you thanking me for, your paying me when we get home,"

"NANI!"

"I was joking Naruto, the sooner we eat, the sooner we can go,"

I paid for the food and we swiftly left, putting our hitai-ates' back on. After five more hours of walking it started to get dark.


"We should camp for the night," Sasuke said, we found a decent sized clearing for us.

When everything was sorted, had dinner. Kakashi and I stayed up to keep watch, Naruto and Sasuke fell asleep instantly.

"Sakura, you should get some sleep," I was sat comfortably in his lap

"But I'm not tired,"

"I'll stay up, just get some sleep. And besides you're a distraction,"

"Good," I reached my hand to his face and pulled his mask down. Before I had a chance to react, his lips were on my own. I was just about to deepen it when he broke off. He gently pushed me off and whispered "We have company,"

I stood up and woke up Naruto and Sasuke, "Enemy ninja,"

We didn't even get a chance to get ready, we were surrounded.


"Sakura-Chan… Ohh Sakura-Chan…" Naruto..

"Go to hell Naruto…" I slowly opened my eyes

"You're lucky Sakura-Chan, Sasuke was about to pour cold water all over you," Kakashi was sat opposite myself smiling straight at me.

"If he did, then I'd just have to think up something worse," I winked at Sasuke, now looking just a bit scared.

"Naruto, if you start to pack things up, leaving some wood. Sasuke can light a fire while me and Sakura go get some fish," Kakashi got up, walked over to me and dragged me on my feet.

"But I don't wanna," I complained, Kakashi bent down to my ear and whispered, "Yes you do," He grabbed my hand and pulled me through the forest to a river. I stood beside the edge wondering what he was about to do, his body came close to mine, his hands coming closer. I closed my eyes for a second and realised I was wet. He pushed me…

"KAKASHI!"

"Yes?" Came the calm reply

"Come here," I smiled as sweetly as I could, he walked over to me across the water and bent down. I pulled his mask down and brushed my cold wet lips against his own warm ones. He was surprised at my actions, but there was no he'd push me into a river and get away with it, I pushed back from him and swum underwater. I got a few kage bunshins to help me catch some fish. After a while, I managed to catch eight. I swam to the surface to hear.

"Nice one Sakura, I didn't even have to get wet," Kakashi was stood on the bank with his book in his hand. I got out of the water and walked over to him, I rubbed my drenched body over his.

"Not so dry now are you?" I pushed chakra to feet and speeded through the forest.

"Here," I threw the fish to Naruto.

"I forgot to tell you something else about this mission, Sakura is needed in Suna," Kakashi walked calmly past all three of us.

"What the hell for?" Sasuke rose to his feet.

"Gaara,"
