DISCLAIMER: I do not own Naruto. I never will! Take the hint!
Far, Far away.
In a kingdom ruled by the wealthy.
There lived a small weak girl.
Who lived a poor but happy life with her mother—
"Sakura-dear, Come here! I have some important news to inform you about!" I put the white pencil I held in my hand down on the small journal I possessed. "Coming mother!" I got out the small room I shared with my mother and went to the kitchen, where my mother sat waiting for me.
"Hello, mother." I greeted with the same cheerfulness I held everyday. "Hello, Sakura-dear. How was your day?" I smiled. "It was great. I had fun with my friends, Ami and Mai." Mother smiled. "That's good. Have you eaten yet?" I shook my head. "No, I have been waiting for you. So we could eat together, you came quite late mother. May I ask why?"
Mother smiled. "Yes, honey. I'm sorry I kept you. But that's the reason I want to talk to you." I'm positive I had a confused facial expression, because my mother laughed. "Well, you see. In the next few minutes. We will be moving." I tilted my head in confusion. "Why?"
Mother looked hesitant to tell me but smiled. "I'll be getting married to the King next month. Since we have been seeing each other since we met. I wanted to let you know before the entire village knew. They will pick us up here and take us to the castle to get prepared." I was shocked. For a minimum of a second, then I was angry my mother had not told me sooner. But it soon turned into happiness for my mother. I knew it was hard for her to raise me alone since father died.
"That would be great mother. I am the most happy for you." Mother smiled at me.
Just then the doorbell of our small house rang. Interrupting our moment. Mother quickly stood up and went to the door to open it. "Sakura-dear. We will be leaving now. Go put on your shoes." I nodded and headed to our room. I quickly put on my only pair of shoes and snatched my journal and pencil from the small bed.
I walked out of the room, looking back at it for the last time. "Goodbye." I whispered. Slowly I closed the door of the room. "Mother, I'm ready. Shall we go now?" Mother nodded with a small smile on her clear smooth face.
A man in a fancy suit lead us to the royal carriage I had only ever dreamed or riding. I looked around. The entire village seemed to watch us. I also found Ami and Mai in the crowed. Glaring at me. I merely smiled and waved at them. But they only seemed to curse at me, though I could not here them. I waved goodbye to the rest of the people I was acquittances with. They waved back and smiled.
"Mother?" I asked as we rode away from my home town. "Yes, dear?" I bit my lip, but then immediately remembered a lady was not allowed to do that. And stopped. "Is the King's son nice?" Mother nodded. "Very, but he can be quite rude. He doesn't know how to express himself." I smiled. He was a little similar to me. "Oh."
.:XxX:.
We arrived at the castle in less then ten minuets.
The King and his son were waiting outside of the castle for us. As well as a few of the maids and butlers working in the castle. "Good Evening . You must be Tomono Sakura. I have heard quite a lot about you, from your mother." I smiled and bowed a little. "Good evening my king, I hope whatever you have heard about me was pleasant."
The King chuckled. "Yes, indeed it was. You are an amazing child. And call me Kizashi." I nodded. "As you wish, Kizashi-sama." Kizashi sweat dropped but smiled.
My mother then walked up to us and smiled. "Hello, Kizashi. Are you holding up fine?" Kizashi nodded. "Yes, even more so now that you are here, Mebuki." Mother blushed. I smiled. I was happy my mother was happy.
I looked over to Kizashi's son. A red-head with red eyes, and we were about the same age. And We looked a bit similar to each other. The son turned to me and raised an eyebrow. It looked as if he were asking me. 'Why are you starring at me?'. I smiled like I always did.
Kizashi tried to lean forward and pat me on the head, but I backed away. "Kizashi-sama, will I be attending my mothers wedding?" Kizashi nodded. "Well! But of course! You are Mebuki's most special treasure." I smiled. "Thank you."
Kizashi turned to his Son. "Sasori, come and greet your new sister." Kizashi and Sasori exchanged stares before he agreed. Walking over to us Sasori waved. "Hey." I nodded in acknowledgment. "Hello, Prince Sasori Haruno." Sasori and I exchanged stares and finally looked away.
The King and my mother exchanged awkward glances and faked coughed. "Sasori, you will be taking Sakura to her room. It is beside yours so it should not be much of a problem." Sasori nodded.
"I'm to be taken to my room now?" I asked Kizashi. Kizahi nodded. "Yes, in the mean while, I will be showing your mother to our room." Sasori rolled his eyes. "Come along." Sasori said as he began walking inside the large dubble doors of the castle. "Oh, okay." I followed quietly behind him. Hoping I wouldn't be sharing a room with him.
.:XxX:.
The walk to my new room probably took about a whole hour. I don't know how Sasori can walk all this every time. Will I ever get used to this? I thought. Sasori stopped in front of a large white door and opened it. "We're here." My eyes widened as I walked in with him. The room was huge and the pink and white bed was enormous. There was a white walk in closet as well, but I dared not open it. There was two white night stands on both sides of the bed. A large mirror on the makeup drawer with a white stool chair. The carpet was also white and fully. There was so many things in the room that I had never seen. It was nothing like Mother's and I's room.
"I-Is this my room?" I asked Sasori. Sasori nodded. "Why else would I be showing it to you?" I mentally kicked myself for being so idiotic. "Right." Sasori walked out of the room. "Anything you see here is yours. Do you see that rope right there?" I turned to were he was pointing and saw the white rope hanging from the celling. "Pull it if you need anything and someone will come. My room is in front of yours so if you need anything, you can come to me." I nodded. "Thank you." Sasori nodded as walked out, closing the door behind him.
I turned back to my room and walked over to the closet. "Should I try something on?" I asked myself. "No, I should take a shower first." I looked around the room and found another big door. "Is that it?" Walking over to it, I opened it. I sighed with relief.
Yay! It is a bathroom! I looked around the huge bathroom that was practically the size of my old bedroom. No longer suprised of its grandness I walked in. Towels...Towels...where are the towels!? I looked around untill I found a cabinet with a white towel and a pink towel. I'm starting to think everything here is white and pink. I took both of them and put them on the hanger near the shower. This is big too. I turned the hot water on.
Slowly taking off my tattered dress and worn shoes I entered the shower. Sighing in relaxation as my skin melted with the hot water. I reached for the shampoo and squeezed some out. Vanilla? I gently rubbed the shampoo on my head for a few minutes before the water rinsed it out. I then reached for the white scrub and the soap. Vanilla again, huh? I rubbed myself with the now soapy scrub for another few minuets before the hot water rinsed it out as well. I stayed in the hot water for a little longer before I herd a knock.
I quickly turned off the water and grabbed the towles. Putting the pink one around me and the white one on my hair. "Who is it?" I asked. I stepped out of the shower and put on the slippers I had just now noticed. "It's your mother." I smiled and quickly went to open the door. "Are you doing fine?" My mother asked as she entered the bathroom with a white and red dress in hand. "I'm doing fine. You look amazing mother."
I complemented her. Her blue elegant dress complemented her blue eyes. "Thank you." Mother handed me the dress she had in her hands and smiled. "I just picked it out. Don't worry all the dress are in your size. I had them measured just your size." I smiled. "Thank you mother." I took it and examined it. "It's very pretty." Mother nodded. "I'll be leaving now, Kizashi said we'll be having dinner in an hour or two. Sasori will come by later okay?" I nodded. Mother smiled and left the bathroom. I let out a sigh.
Looking around I found another door. Curious, I opened it. I gasped. It was the closet! I opened the door wider and walked in. "Wow." I whispered. Walking around I serched around for the undergarments. I was suprised to see that they had their own place. There were of many colors and for a second I thought who really bothered with all this. Taking a matching pair of white undergarments.
Already dry I put on the silk undergarments and after that I put on the dress my mother had picked out. With the towel still on I looked around the closet a little longer. (A/N: think of it like Barbie's closet!) after what seemed like an hour I found the shoes. I gratefully took white flats to go with my dress. They were comfortable, unlike the worn tight flats I always wore.
I walked back the way I came from to the bathroom. I almost knew the whole way so it took less the fifteen minutes to walk back. Closing the door behind me I went to the mirror sink. Beside it there were many hair products and a few brushes. Taking a black brush I brushed my hair after I put the two towels on the hanger. My hair had already dried so it fell all the way to my waist. I laughed, my hair was always weird. It was pink yes, but it seemed as if couldn't decide in being curls or straight. Like today for example, it was straight.
I walked out the bathroom and went to the makeup drawer. My mother once told me my face had always looked as if it had make up on. Which was true. My thick curled up eyelashes seemed to always have on mascara when they never did. My lips were a little red. And the cream pale of my skin was something every girl in my village wished for. I looked at my reflection again. The only thing I really needed was eyeliner. So I picked it up and put some light eyeliner.
There was a knock on the door again. And I immediately put on the smile I always wore. "Come in." I called. The door opened and Sasori came in. "Are you ready?" I stood from the stool a nodded. "Yes." I walked over to Sasori who held out his hand for me to hold. I hesitantly took his arm and we walked. Closing the door behind us.
Seeing as the was going to be a long walk I decided to start a conversation. "Sasori-san, how old are you?" Sasori glanced at me from the corner of his eyes and responded. "Seventeen. How old are you?" I relaxed knowing he was only two years older then me. "Fifteen." Sasori nodded. "What do you do in your free time?" I asked. "Usually, I'm with my friends. I'll introduce you to them at the ball." Ball? "What ball?" I asked letting go of Sasori's arm. Sasori stopped and turned to me. "Your mother didn't tell you? It's your welcoming ball. Only royals and nobles get to attend though." I blinked a couple of times. Mother could have at least told me that. She said dinner! "Oh, yeah. I must have forgotten." I took Sasori's arm again and we countinued.
"Do you think I might make some friends?" I asked. Sasori shrugged. "Not likely. That's why I'm introducing my friends to you." Well, you could have at least said maybe you know. I smiled. "Thank you, your so kind." Sasori turned to me. "Something's been bothering me. Can I ask?" I nodded. "How come you talk so formal?" I laughed lightly. "I guess is because of my mother's mother who had had once married a wealthy man." Sasori nodded and stopped infront of two dubble doors. "We're here aren't we?" I asked Sasori nodded. I squeezed his arm nervously. Sasori chuckled. "Don't worry, I can't have my sister embarrassing herself when she's with me. Now can I?" I looked at Sasori shocked but smiled. The two gaurds that were standing beside the two doors opened them and the music of the ball hit my ears as well as laughter and the voices of the guests. I smiled politely as we entered.
Everyone became quite and turned to look at us. Then came the whispers. I felt as if they were all laughing at me but kept my polite smile on my face. Sasori turned to me and smiled. Soon mother and Kizashi came to us. "Welcome Sakura. I hope you enjoy this ball. It is being held specially for you." I Smiled at Kizashi. "Thank you, I appreciate all you have done for me Kizashi-sama." Kizashi nodded and walked away with my mother.
"Sakura. Do you want to meet my friends?" I turned to Sasori and nodded. "Please?" Sasori lead me through the crowed of people in elegant dresses and tuxedos. Finally we stopped near the banquet. "Yo! puppet-boy finally showed up, un." I looked up and saw a blond-haired guy with blue eyes. His hands had some type of tatto with a mouth. It was really creepy. Sasori frowned. "That was only once Deidara! Once!" Deidara laughed until a purple haired lady pulled his long hair. "Oi! Konan that hurt un." Konan rolled her eyes and walked over to me. Pushing Sasori away. "Aw she's so cute! Right? Pein, Itachi?" A guy with black Cole eyes turned to look at me before turning away. His black long hair was tied in a low horse-tail, and it moved as he turned his head.
"I don't care. Konan." A orange haired guy with six piercing on his nose and two on his bottom lip said. Konan rolled her eyes and turned to me. "Hey, I'm Konan! You'll probably be seeing a lot of me since your this guys little sister." I smiled. "You're very pretty, Lady Konan." Konan smiled. "Thank you, you look pretty to." She turned to the seven guys she was with and smirked. "Okay guys, I want you in a straight line! Oldest to youngest!" The guys groaned but did as told. Konan smiled and walked over to the fist in line.
"This is Deidara. And believe it or not he is the Prince of the grass county" I looked at Deidara although I had already seen him. He had blue eyes and long blond hair that he wore in a half pony-tail. He wore a black and white tuxedo like the rest of them with a barely visible red and white cloud on the pocket, something the rest of them also had. He had a tatto of an open mouth on both his hands.
Walking to the next person Konan grinned. "This is the fist Prince of Khanoha Uchiha Itachi. Sadly he stepped down from the throne so now it belongs to his younger brother." I looked at Itachi. He had long black hair that was tied into a low-tail. his black coal eyes seemed to see through every lie and betrayal. He like Deidara wore a tuxedo with a red and white cloud. This is the Son of the Uchiha's, he's quite handsome. Fit to rule a kingdom. I thought as I looked at him.(A/N: the Uchiha's are like the King of kings. So they rule very single kingdom that already has kings! Get me?)
Konan walked over to another guy. "This is Hidan he unlike most of us isn't a prince. He's the Son of a pope we met when we were at Itachi's place." I looked at Hidan. He had a grayish-white kind of hair. It was pulled back with gel and complemented with black eyes. And I was starting to get the idea that everyone had a tuxedo with a red and white cloud.
Konan then pointed that the guy beside Hidan. "That's Yahiko, but we call him Pein for no reason whatsoever." I looked a Yahiko or Pein. He had copper orange hair and copper eyes. His face held so many piercing on his nose and ears only two on his bottom lip. It was amazing. I didn't bother with his outfit because I already new he wore the same thing the others wore.
I then turned to the fish-like guy how looked like a shark with his blue skin and blue hair with blue eyes. "That's Kisame, I think it's best for you not to involve yourself with him, but he's Itachi-sama's close aid.." Konan then looked at Sasori. "You already know Sasori..." I nodded and looked at Sasori who had on the same outfit as the rest of the guys.
Konan walked over to another guy. "And finally, this is Kakuzu. He's usually quite and likes to gamble a lot so..." I laughed as I looked at him. he looked a little Older then them, about three years or so. He had long hair that he let lose and glowing green eyes. I looked to the left and saw another group of people looking at us.
"Hey, are you okay?" I nodded but kept my eyes on the male who looked like Itachi. "Konan-san. Do you know who they are?" Konan walked over to me and put her hands on my shoulders. "Oh them? Well that guy that looks like Itachi-sama is Itachi-sama's younger brother. His name is Sasuke. I'm not sure about the others but they seem to always be with him. Mostly the red-head and the white-haired guy I also think the two orange haired guys are always with him." I nodded. "Oh."
I turned back to the guys and found Itachi looking straight at me but he turned away before I put to much thought on it.
The guys finally got out the little 'strait line' Konan had them do and got drinks. "Do you want to go dance?" Konan asked. I shrugged. "I'm not sure if I know how to dance." I responded. Konan laughed. "That's okay! I'll teach you as we dance!" I shook my head no. "No thank you, Konan I'm fine. You should dance with Pein." Konan blushed. "Sure, why not.." She grabbed Pein's hand quickly enough for him not to notice and dragged him to dance. I laughed quietly.
Sasori then came to my side. "Are you having fun?" He asked. I nodded. "Yeah. Are you?" Sasori shrugged. "I'm not sure." I laughed. Although Sasori and I had just met. We got along quite well, almost as if we were real siblings. Me and Sasori talked almost the entire time as the ball went on. It was fun.
Two years later...
"Oh my gosh!" Sasori smirked as he saw me enter his room. "What's wrong sis?" I rolled my eyes. "Don't give me that face Sasori! This is practically all your fault!" Sasori laughed as my muddy dress stained his red carpet. "Yeah, it's not my fault you decide to go chase that bunny." I growled. "You tapped my ring to that bunny!" Sasori gave me a spare dress he had from one of the girls he called 'friends'." I frowned. "I am not wearing that." Sasori rolled his eyes. "It was washed okay?" I shook my head. "I don't want to wear something one of those girls have worn while in your room." Sasori laughed and put his hands up. "Okay, okay."
There was nock on the door and Sasori stopped laughing and I put on my everyday smile. "Come in." Sasori called from his bed. "Sasori-sama, Sakura-Hime. The King and Queen request your presence." Sasori nodded and I smiled at the maid who shyly smiled back. "Wow Sakura, you're some actor." I rolled my eyes. "Whatever. I still haven't forgiven you for this!" Walking out of Sasori's room I slammed the door behind me and walked to my room. And closed the door.
I took of my shoes and ran to the bathroom. Trying not to stain the white carpet. I opened the bathroom door and took a shower. After about thirty minutes. I went to the closet and put on my clean new undergarments. And a red A-cut dress and some black flats. Luckily my hair decided to stay in the soft curls I always wanted. I walked out of the walk-in closet and closed the door behind me. Walking over to the mirror I fixed my bangs so they covered only my right eye and let my hair fall straight . Satisfied with my hair I quickly put on some light mascara and lip gloss.
The maid from earlier knocked on my door and I quickly walked to the door. "Coming!" Putting on my everyday smile before I opened the door. "Sakura-Hime, please hurry. The King and Queen are getting impatient." I nodded and let the maid lead me to the throne room where my mother and father were sure to be.
.:XxX:.
The maid left once we reached the two gold dubble doors. I sighed and signaled the two guards to open them. As they did. I was met with the blinding light of the throne room. "Sakura, why are you so late?" Father asked. I bowed as a apology for being late. "I'm sorry, I had to change from the dirty dress I had on earlier that morning, father." Father sighed. "Don't worry. What your mother and I are about to say is sure to get you angry at us as well." Sasori who was now beside my raised an eyebrow but kept quite.
Mother looked at me apologetically. "Your father and I had decided you are old enough to get wed my dear." I looked shocked and Sasori narrowed his eyes. "What are you saying mother?" He asked. Mother looked away so father answered for her. "Sakura will be getting married to Uchiha Sasuke second Prince of Khanoha." I stood up and so did Sasori. "Uchiha Sasuke? Mother I do not know him." Mother smiled. "I know sweetie, that's why the Uchiha's and I as well as your father have agreed to let you stay at their castle for six months. If it does not work out you will not have to marry."
Sasori growled. "This is nonsense mother! Sakura is still to young! She can't—" father interrupted Sasori. "Sosori. This would not have happened if you would have chosen a bride much quicker. You must learn that this is the life of us royals. To keep our kingdom strong we must make alliances." Sasori lowered his head. "But still.." I smiled at Sasori and then turned to mother and father. "I understand. When will I leave?" Mother smiled sorrowfully. "This evening." I nodded and walked out the throne room.
.:XxX:.
Sasori barged into my room as I looked up from my bed. "Hey." I greeted. "Sakura, you don't have to do this." I shook my head. "I do. Don't worry, we'll see each other soon! I mean you could always visit—" Sasori punched the wall. "Haruno! That's not what I trying to say!" I smiled. "I know, but this is what has been decided by mother and father. And plus Itachi will be there you'll have a perfect excuse to visit me." Sasori frowned. "Sis.." I stood from my bed. "Can you help me? I need to pack some 'normal' clothes for my small 'trip'." Sasori sighed but fallowed me Into the closet.
-Evening-
The maid knocked on the door. Signaling me and Sasori it was time for my departure. I smiled at Sasori and squeezed his hand. He returned the squeeze. "It's time Sasori." Sasori nodded. We walked to the entrance of the castle. Five maids carring the suitcases I had personally packed. As we neared the castle's entrance I slowed down. Did I really want to do this? I thought about the carriage that was sure to be waiting for me and mother and father who were waiting as well. I then looked at Sasori and remembered how he had once told me he could only really be his-self around me.
We stopped at the doors. Waiting for the gaurds to open them. "Sakura." I looked at Sasori. "Yeah?" Sasori bit his lip and smiled. "Be careful okay?" I nodded. "I will don't worry." I smiled at how me and Sasori had gotten so close over the two years we had been together. It was kind of weird at first but we had gradually been getting close. And it was now that I noticed I will miss him so, so much I smiled.
The guards opened the doors at that moment and we walked outside. "Mother, father." I greeted. "Hey sweetie, are you sure you want to do this? I can try to prespone it." I shook my head. "But it's going to happen anyway right?" Mother smiled sadly. "Don't worry mother, I'll be fine." Mother nodded and hugged me. I then turned to father who looked at me proudly. "Good luck, Sakura." I nodded and hugged him. I let go and ran to Sasori. Hugging him so tightly I almost suffocated him. "Will you be okay?" He asked. I nodded. "Yeah, but I'll miss you." Sasori hugged me tighter. "I will to." I let go of him and let a single tear roll down my face but Sasori wiped it away before anyone could see it. "Bye." He whispered. I smiled and entered the carriage. "Bye." I whispered back even though I knew he could not here me anymore.
I turned away from the castle and Sasori and my crying mother and my sad but proud father. I turned away from everything and prepared myself for the long journey ahead of me. It's going to be a long six months. I thought bitterly as the castle and everything I know got smaller and smaller until I could no longer see it. I'm sleepy. I thought as I Closed my eyes and faded into the darkness of my sleep.
So there it is. (Yawn) I'm sorry. I just stayed up very late yesterday (yawn) and I'll still tired.(yawn) but it okay! (Yawn) I'll update another chapter if I get more then FIVE reviews! goodnight!
