New story, since I'm done with one of my other stories, I think I'll start a new time travel one. Which is this one! :)
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto.
The past... And the present... And the future
When their worlds mix, what shall happen?
A young cherry blossom about to bloom...
A beautiful cherry blossom, ready to show off it's beauty.
A cherry blossom, flying off in a shower of petals... waiting for the new generation to bloom...
Past
A young girl with short pink hair and erhm... quite a large forehead, walked down the dirt path holding a basket full of herbs and medical supplies. She was ready for another grueling day with her shisou, the Sannin Tsunade-sama.
On the way she saw scroll merchant down the road. He beckoned her closer and said "Young lady, filled with such beauty and potential... Would you like to see your future written in this scroll?" She tilted her head curiously and asked "How much, sir?"
"Oh, no worries this one's on me. Such a beautiful girl should receive this without a price." The merchant smiled and handed her a scroll wrapped in a simple parchment paper. She thanked him kindly and proceeded down the path to the training fields.
Curiosity took over her and she unwrapped the parchment paper, inspecting the scroll. It was simple really, a navy blue base color and cherry blossoms scattering the majority of scroll, a quickly drawn hawk was also imprinted on the outside of the scroll.
Setting down her basket, she opened the scroll and suddenly a vortex dragged her through and she was blinded by the shining light.
The simple woven basket, sat unnoticed on the floor.
Present
A teenager with a crop of short pink hair and her large forehead already grown out, was walking down the street with her best friend, the boisterous, loud blonde named Naruto. They were both arguing over who won at the rock paper scissors game until she bumped into a merchant.
The very merchant that her past self bumped into.
"Oh, I am so sorry, sir!" She exclaimed and helped him up before picking up the scrolls that scattered around their feet. He thanked her and said "No problem, but thank you for picking up my scrolls. Here you go, as a token of my thanks."
He gave her the same scroll once again and disappeared into the crowd. Curious, she opened the scroll and just like her past self, she was sucked into a vortex and disappeared.
Naruto stood there open mouthed before he panicked and ran over to Hokage Tower.
Future
A beautiful woman stood, cleaning out the house. Her daughter, an onyx eyed young girl stood waiting for her to finish dusting off the shelves.
"Mama... are you done yet?" she asked impatiently, pushing up her red rimmed glasses irritably.
"Not yet Sarada-chan... oh wait, what's this..." The pink haired women pulled out yet again the same scroll, opening it to see it's contents. Like her two past selves, she too was sucked into the vortex and was not to be seen.
Her daughter, stood shocked and called out for her Papa to see what happened.
She did not notice that the scroll itself also disappeared.
Past
"Itai, that hurt..." Sakura muttered, rubbing her head and she stood up unsteadily looking around her surroundings. She found herself in the middle of the forest, close to a winding dirt path.
Scanning through on what she had, she found her weapons pouch full, her ninja pouches filled with some food supplies and a small bottle of water and a scroll that she asked Tenten to fill with herbal supplies, extra weapons and survival supplies.
Luckily she was wearing a cloak since it was right in the middle of autumn where the weather was chilly in Konoha. She sighed and proceeded to walk towards the dirt path, looking around to see anything strange. Noticing nothing out of the sort, she summoned a little bit of chakra to her feet and burst of in a speedy sprint.
Awhile later she decided to take it to the treetops and she leapt from tree to tree, seeing a small town nearby she jumped to the dirt path and slowed her pace.
Hearing the familiar tak, tak, tak of ninja sandals scraping the ground, Sakura pulled out a kunai and held it in front of her and she turned around to face the intruder.
Her eyes widened when she saw a small group of older nins, maybe the age of a teenager, stop near her. There were 3 men and a red haired woman. One man looked extremely familiar, and brought herself to a sorrowful thought, another one had pale white hair and mischievous purple eyes (plus he was holding a very familiar sword) and the last one had a huge hulking figure but shy orange eyes and a same colored shock of spiky hair.
She back away slowly, holding up her kunai almost shakily, cursing her luck, when the red haired woman asked "Ne, Sasuke, why is there a genin by herself near a regular town?" Something in her mind seemed to stop when the red haired woman uttered the name Sasuke.
The white haired man replied "Beats me, but she looks kinda cute, not in the flirty kinda way though." He was immediately hit in the face by the red haired woman and his face literally splashed away into water. "SHUT UP SUIGETSU, what are you, a pedophile now?!"
Sakura cringed and backed away even more, her hands actually shaking now. She was about to burst into a sprint and run for her life when Suigetsu, or so the red haired woman called him asked "Hey little girl, what's your name?"
She replied with a wavering tone in her voice "W-why should I tell, for all I know you could be a nuke nin..." Suigetsu burst into laughter and he said between laughters "Ya hear that Sasuke, she can tell we're nuke nin! HA!"
Fear ran through Sakura when Suigetsu had confirmed that they were nuke nin. That was when the man named Sasuke said "Why do you look like my ex-teammate Sakura? Are you pretending to be her younger self?"
Sakura's mind registered the two words 'ex-teammate' and 'Sakura' and she freaked out. Trying to keep a straight face she opened her mouth and said...
Present
Sakura stood up and inspected her surroundings carefully, she was on the roof of a house in a village that seemed to be extremely technology advanced. Looking behind her, she gaped. Instead of 5 faces on the monument she saw 7 instead.
The two new faces were creepily similar to her sensei and her blonde teammate. Suddenly a loud voice was heard yelling "Papa! Mama's gone! She opened a scroll and disappeared all of a sudden."
'That's what happened to me!' Sakura thought and she leapt down the roof and chakra walked down the wall to hear what was happening.
"Sarada, where was she when she disappeared?" A familiar voice was heard behind the balcony door.
'Woah, woah, woah, wait... Sasuke-kun!?' Sakura thought frantically when she heard his voice. 'Wait he married and had a daughter already? No way, he's too young to do that!'
"Who's there?" Sasuke suddenly asked, opening the balcony door to look out and check. Sakura could do nothing but stare blankly at the face of an adult Sasuke and his daughter Sarada.
"Uh... ok I'm just going to leave now, sorry to intrude sir!" Sakura stammered and leapt off the wall, breaking into a sprint and taking off.
"Wait!" Sarada cried out at the pink haired teen before she climbed off the balcony to follow. Sasuke did the same and shut the door before he followed his daughter.
"Oh crap, where the hell am I?! Sasuke-kun's an adult and he has a daughter?! I must be dreaming!' Sakura thought as she ran through the newly expanded village she called home.
Suddenly a large hand grabbed her and she turned out, to see the face of Sasuke grimly staring at her.
'Shit!' she thought and quickly threw a punch at his face. 'This must be a genjutsu, I need to get out.'
Sasuke caught her fist, but couldn't help but cringe as his wrist cracked slightly from the chakra filled punch.
Slapping her palms together, Sakura let out a burst of chakra yelling "Kai!"
But nothing happened.
Future
Sakura found herself standing at the front gate of Konoha, strangely she saw only 4 heads on the Hokage Monument.
"Am I in the past?" She wondered, as she stepped towards the gate.
"Halt! Who are you?" Izumo one of the old gatekeepers yelled out.
Sakura lied "Haru Sarada." She yelled at herself mentally for only thinking of her daughter's name.
"Are you a citizen of Konoha? If you are, what are you doing outside of the village?" Kotetsu, the other gatekeeper asked.
"I am a citizen of Konoha and I have no idea how I got here." Sakura replied as calmly as she could. The gatekeepers looked at her suspiciously but let her through and she sighed heavily before running towards the edge of the gate.
Finding the spot where Kiba dug a hole under the wall to escape, she went down there and ran through the forest to where Orochimaru's old hideouts.
She needed to find out where Sasuke was all this time, considering that Naruto probably left and she had sensed Tsunade's chakra near the training area.
Cursing for her unfit outfit (A/N: Ha, that rhymes, ok I'll shut up XD) she reached towards the Eastern hideout. Slipping into a henge of a Sound ninja, she went into the hideout and walked down the winding hallways. Considering that she spent her time in the hideout, when she gave birth to Sarada, she had memorized a few paths.
Sensing someone near, she quietly slipped into a random room and closed the door, waiting for the Sound nins to walk away.
"Who are you and why are here?" A familiar voice was heard in the room.
Sakura turned around and saw Sasuke sitting on one of the simple beds of the hideout. He looked like he was between the age 13 to 14, and the look on his face was one that she was used to seeing back when she saw him as a teenager.
Undoing her henge, she stared at him with a serious look plastered on her face, "I suppose I shouldn't tell you as I don't belong in this time but maybe I should..." She inwardly laughed, Sasuke could never beat her at this time period and she supposed that she could tease him.
"Haruno Sakura, nice to meet you Uchiha Sasuke." she said in a mischievous tone. 'Oh boy this was going to be so hilarious, but I shouldn't be playing around with time...' Sakura thought although she inwardly chuckled evilly, 'Oh Sasuke-kun, I haven't punished you for all those times you tried to kill me and hurt me. Even though I forgive you I can't help but punish your younger self.' She let out a chuckle before focusing her gaze on the pre teenager Sasuke.
He looked emotionless though his eyes gave away everything no matter how hard he tried to hide the shock. "Surprised aren't you, I'm the same girl that you knocked out on the bench a year ago. But yes, I'm from the future, judging from the look in your eyes." She said teasingly.
'This is going to be fun...' she thought and chuckled evilly 'Kukukukuku...'
Well this is the first chapter, hoped you liked it. I know I kind of made the adult Sakura kind of OOC but I figured she's not exactly like Naruto who can forgive anything Sasuke does (even if she loves him), so I made her tease Sasuke since he's probably not as strong as her back in the past and can't do anything about it.
Anyways, R&R Ja!
