Chapter 1

Today was the day that the teams were going to be allotted. If things were the way they were before Sakura would have been more excited than anything, wishing she was put on team with her precious Sasuke but now she didn't care much. She was on her way to the academy, the last week had come and gone. She had spent a good part of it sleeping around, making drawings in her classes and particularly avoiding her father and her (revealed a week ago) step mother. Osha was nice but Sakura didn't had it in her to call her "mom", she had asked her if she could call her Osha and she had agreed. Her father although not happy had also went along with it. Since then she had plundered her father with questions but the reply was always the same "You will know when your older, but you should know she was a kunoichi named Kurehime from the village of mist with pink hair like the spring and green eyes like the grass". Well now atleast she knew where she got her hair from. Her father had said that Kurihime was very passionate about her, and she had been delighted to have her but a sickness had took her just after two years Sakura had been born. Her father said that she had made him promise to marry again so Sakura would never need to feel the emptiness felt by children with no mothers, and when the time was right Sakura would know. Her father had told this story with such sadness and emptiness that Sakura had known that he wasn't telling the whole truth, it was like he was hiding something. She had been good at inspecting people but she didn't have it in her to ask what, seeing his face she knew it would probably make him cry. Her father came from a civilian family who were merchants for years, they traded in between villages and were a moderately wealthy family so she got most of the things she wanted in her adolescence. She had spent the some time in the library looking for the name Kurihime but almost all ninja records were hidden, the few she could find were all famous ninja families of the leaf village the Hyugas,Naras,Yamanakas etc. Without the last name of her mother which her father had refused to give,she knew her efforts were gonna be fruitless. As she neared the Academy, she felt tears in her eyes but she swallowed them down. She had cried enough and crying was not gonna help, with that thought in her head she went inside the Academy door where everyone was gathering.

She had joined the ninja academy in hopes of impressing the black haired handsome uchiha heir whom every girl with a heartbeat beat lusted after. She was one of them but now it all seemed so meaningless. She had hoped to wed him and then bore him black haired cute uchiha babies, thinking the world was all ponies and rainbows. Her mother's truth had shattered her fantasy filled world. She didn't feel like continuing her career as a ninja anymore, what was she gonna do anyways, she was the weakest one in their class, her only strong point was her brain. She was bullied in her childhood when Ino yamanaka had been her savior but they had broken off their friendship in favor of winning Sasuke's love. She felt so stupid now for doing that to her friend for a boy who had always ignored her. She had once went to Sasuke to ask him out after finally gathering courage for weeks, he had given her a cold glare and told her she was annoying. She had cried and had told herself that she would make him love her. Now she just didn't have it in her to try. She made apoint in her mind to talk to Ino later on.

She had always known her parents to be civilians, now that her mother was revealed to be a kunoichi she still didn't feel like becoming a ninja. In the last week she had cried alot and come to many realizations. She had not thought about Sasuke at all and realized that it was just some stupid childish crush. After this realization the initial thought of resigning as a ninja come to her mind. Her main reason for joining the academy had just lost her interest, What was stopping her in the Academy? Anyways maybe she would talk to her dad later on about it. Her father had never been keen on the idea of her joining the academy but keen or not keen, he seemed borderland scared when she had asked him. But Sakura had whined and whined and cried for two whole weeks until he had agreed on it albeit reluctantly. He would probably gladly pull her out of the Academy. As these thoughts crossed her mind, she found Iruka at the end of the class announcing the teams of three. As he continued her name came up and she was put on team with Sasuke and Naruto Uzumaki. Naruto was a hyper active kid dressed in bright annoying orange jumpsuit. At one point she would have been delighted and horrified at this team because of Sasuke her beloved and Naruto the brat, but now she didn't care much. She was thinking of resigning and it didn't matter who she was placed with. But whenever she thought of giving up, it was like she was reminded of her mother, like someone was telling her to find the whole truth about her. She had to investigate, if her father was not going to tell her, she would just have to find out herself. She had a right to know after all and she never did understand why her father said she was not ready yet. What was there to be ready about? Even if she wasn't ready, why had he told her about it in the first place. Maybe if he hadn't, she would have lived her life happily but she knew she would find out one day. The truth always comes out.

With that thought in her mind she decided she would continue her ninja career until she finds out who her mother was, it gave her much more opportunity to investigate. After that she would let the situation decide for itself.

Ok guys if you like it, drop a review. It is my first time so try your best to ignore the mistakes. If you like it, tell me I will post chapter 2. This is mainly how Sakura could be if her chracter was properly developed in the anime, I don't like her being weak in the anime. Sakura is the main character and there are no pairings right chapter is short cause it's kind of like a epilogue but later chapters will be longer.
