I don't own Naruto or any of the characters related to Naruto, but sometimes I wish I did!


Chapter 1: The Return of Uchida Sasuke

It had been a long battle on that rainy night, the stench of blood was everywhere despite the efforts of the rain to wash it away. Looking up to the sky she could see the moon peeking through the clouds casting a blue glow upon the ground ridden with dead bodies. So many have died, friends and enemies. I was part of this too. she tried not to vomit but it was becoming increasingly harder not to do so. Looking at her hands she was shocked at the amount of blood on them, she turned her face from them quickly. Is anyone else alive? Urgently she walked from the spot where she had come too and looked around for any signs of life.

She walked for hours it seemed looking at the bodies of her team members, fifty four in all, some of the best chunins and jounins she had ever known taken down so easily by what seemed a meager threat. That threat had escalated into something far beyond her team's capabilities. She still couldn't believe it had been Uchida Sasuke.

She stopped walking when she heard the sound of a kunai thunk into a nearby tree. She froze. Did he come back!? Has he come to finish the job?

"Sakura chan!!" She recognised that voice to her relief.

Naruto jumped down from the trees and rushed over to her. "Sakura chan, are you okay? Are you wounded?"

"I... I don't think so Naruto." She looked at him in a painful way.

Naruto's mouth was agape as he scanned the surroundings. "Kami... what did this?"

"S..." She couldn't say his name it just wouldn't come out. She gritted her teeth and willed the words to come out of her mouth. "Sasuke! He was here.... he... he did this!" Sakura reeled forward and landed in the mud sobbing.

Naruto knelt down and lifted Sakura to her knees. "Are you sure? Are you positive it was Sasuke?" She nodded her head as the tears flowed down her cheeks. Naruto held her close and lifted her up to stand. "Anbu should be here soon."

Just as Naruto spoke Kakashi appeared in a puff of smoke in front of the startled jounins. "Who did this?" Kakashi said gravely.

"Sakura chan said that Sasuke is back, and that he did this."

Kakashi's eye widened. "This is not good." He signaled to the anbu members and they gathered around the ex-anbu. "We have a missing nin close to Konoha, I want everyone alert. The nin is Uchida Sasuke, be extremely cautious. If you should see him do not approach him but contact either myself or Hokage sama. Clean this up as quickly as possible and return to Konoha." The Anbu members all bowed and went about their business.

"What now Kakashi?" Naruto asked still holding Sakura.

"We need to go back to town and see Hokage sama immediately. Also we should take Sakura to a doctor."

"No sensei, I'm fine really. I've already started to heal myself, all I would really need is rest and I will get that after reporting to Tsunade sensei." She could hear the pleading pitch in her voice but she didn't care Sakura had to re account what happened to Tsunade or else they could all be in great danger.
