Sakura gasped out as her back hit the wall. Her step-dad stumbled to his bedroom and Sakura collapsed to the ground. She was covered in cuts and bruises.
"Nee-chan?" Sakura turned and saw her 8 younger siblings. Sakura was oldest, being aged 17. Then it went Akito who was 13, then Gennosuke and Akai who were 12, Daisuke and Kuroi who were 10, Ryou who was 8, Tsuki who was 4 and then Riku who was 2.
"Go to bed" Sakura wheezed out. Kuroi took Ryou, Tsuki and Riku back to their bed while Akito, Gennosuke, Akai and Daisuke helped Sakura. They helped her onto the couch, the one her unconscious mother covered in blood lay.
She was sick, physically weak. Her body couldn't handle anything strenuous but since Kane came into their life 8 years ago, she hasn't been doing so well. Her step-dad was actually her uncle. He was sick and twisted. She has the same father as Akito, Gennosuke, Akai, Daisuke and Kuroi but Ryou, Tsuki and Riku had Kane as their father. Sakura's real father, Haruno Sachi, had died when Sakura was 8. She had arrived home to find her father slaughtered. Since then, Sakura raised Akito, Gennosuke, Akai, Daisuke and Kuroi. Her mother was forced to marry her brother a few months later. 2 years later, Ryou was born. 2 years after that, Tsuki. 2 years after that, Riku and 2 years later, today. Kane would always beat their mother but he loved to beat Sakura more. That's why she would purposely aggravate him so he'd take it out on her instead of the family. Her father, uncle and herself are the only ninja in the family but now it's only her and her uncle.
Sakura tries to fight back but she honestly can't. Kane has a bloodline that his gaze could stop your chakra flowing and affectively taking away your ninja abilities. Once your chakra was frozen, it took at least an hour to come back. Not only that but Sakura heard that Kane and her mother, Natsumi had different mothers and that the bloodline was only passed down to the ninja's of the family. So Sakura's chances of having the Mystic Eye were slim to none.
An hour later, Sakura reached over and used her now flowing chakra to check over her mothers' weak and fragile body. She had a few cuts and 2 concussions. Sakura straight away, began to heal it while her brothers prepared a bath for them. Sakura just finished healing her mother before her eyes closed and she went over her life.
She had a beautiful mother with pale white skin. Her hair was pale, shimmering pink that reached to the back of her knees. She was the same height as the average kunoichi, meaning she was taller then most of the civilian women. She had a curvaceous figure that left many drooling after her and she had vibrant azure eyes.
Akito had red hair and pitch black eyes. He was tall for his age and was already working on toning his body as were the other boys. Gennosuke had pitch black hair with a blue-ish tint, like Sasuke's but darker. His hair was wavy but still messy. His eyes were deep blue, like midnight blue. He was also tall for his age. Akai had flaming red hair, brighter and lighter then Akito's. His eyes were the same colour as his hair that hung in his eyes. Daisuke had blood red hair with blue eyes like their mothers. Kuroi had pitch black hair and jet black eyes. Ryou had maroon hair and black eyes. Tsuki had black hair and blue eyes. Riku had silver hair like their mother's mother and blue eyes. Sakura had gained her vibrant jade eyes from her father.
Sachi had black hair and jade green eyes. He had wavy, hair that got in his eyes but made him all the more handsome. He was one of the most handsome men of Konoha. Black eyes and hair ran in his family but he had gained his mothers eyes who gained her fathers eyes and so on. Sakura was the only one that received her mothers' hair. She had grown stronger by training under the 5th Hokage but it all means nothing if she is reduced to a simple civilian by a mere glance.
The money she gets paid goes towards her family. She pays the bills, for the food and to also send them to a civilian academy. She ends up with nothing to spend on herself for new clothes or weapons.
Not only that but she and Naruto are going against the Uchiha clan to get Sasuke to stay on their team. They didn't know why he suddenly wasn't in their team but they were determined to find out. They hadn't seen him for four months.
"Sleep nee-chan. We'll take care of you" Akito murmured. Sakura nodded slowly before she fell asleep.
