AN: Hi everyone! It's a new story! The characters are OOC in this one. I wanted to post the other chapters for it today, but an emergency has come up so I'm hurrying to post this chapter for you. This one is going to be much more dark and the M rating is there for a reason (heavy lemon in upcoming chapters). If the smut is not you cup of tea, you know what to do. This is not a SasuSaku fic, but there will be questionable scenes involving the two.

I won't stress this enough on this, but please keep in mind that I am not a very good writer, so please don't be too upset with my lack of writing skill. I really love the Naruto characters and this has been a great stress reliever for me as I am constantly working on design projects (I'm a professional Graphic Designer) and writing is something new and takes my overactive imagination somewhere it hasn't been before.

Don't forget to review and follow, as I will be updating regularly.

Disclaimer: I do not own Nartuo!

Synopsis: Sakura is betrayed by her friends, and she mistakenly summon an ancient entity who whisks her into a world of revenge and darkness.

Betrayal

The sun filters through my window indicating the start of a new day. My arms rise above my head and my back arch in a lazy stretch.

It's my first day of in months! I haven't slept-in in so long I think to myself with a soft smile on my lips. I get up from my warm bed and walk towards my window, drawing the curtains to bask in the sunlight and take in the view of the Hokage Mountain from my bedroom. Today is going to be a great day.

I head to the bathroom to wash up. I can't wait to see Sasuke-kun. I haven't seen him since he helped me move into my apartment a couple of weeks ago. A soft smile plays across my lips when I think off how much he's changed from the brooding lonely boy he was when we were genin.

After his attempt to abandon the village, Naruto managed to get through to him and bring him back, their bond stronger than ever.

As for our bond, I'm glad to say it is now a stable friendship. He hasn't mentioned my confession the night he left, but I figured he is just shy about the whole thing.

I've stopped the fangirling and focused on my training. I am now seventeen, apprentice to the 5th Hokage, I run my own department at the hospital and recently promoted to jonin.

Speaking of teammates, I feel the approaching chakra of the blonde loudmouth, Naruto. I chuckle lightly and finish up in the bathroom and quickly get dressed.

As I'm finished getting ready, my front door burst open and a loud 'SAKURA-CHAN' was heard throughout the apartment and possibly the neighborhood.

I rushed towards my silly teammate and flung myself into his waiting arms. His embrace is warm and strong and he spins me around, crushing me to his chest.

When my parents died a few years back, he was there for me in a way no one else could be; he helped me pick up the pieces. He never left my side, not once. The first week after the funeral he moved in with me without hesitation. When I had nightmares, he would come in bed with me and hold me till I fell back asleep.

We were inseparable; we watched horror movies, we spared together, I thought him how to cook food that isn't ramen, and I even thought him about the birds and the bees. It was so funny! He couldn't look at me in the eyes for weeks. A year after he moved it, he told me he was going to go and train with Jiraiya. He was a bit hesitant to leave but I assured him that I would be fine, as my training with Tsunade would occupy all my time. I was so proud of the little knucklehead going off to get stronger to become Hokage.

He sets me down gently and I reach up to ruffle his hair. His smile is the brightest I have ever seen if that is even humanly possible for Naruto.

"Sakura-chan, I have the best news! Hinata-hime agreed to go on a date with me tonight BELIEVE IT!"

"Naruto, isn't it like the 20th time you've gone on a date the Hyuga princess?" I said to the knucklehead with a laugh. He gets so excited for everything. When he came back from training, I helped him to woo the shy Hyuga princess who has been crushing on him since we were kids.

"Hehe, I guess you're right Sakura-chan" he laughs shyly while rubbing the back of his head.

"Well come in, I'll make you lunch" we spent the day catching and remembering our antics as kids. "So, what are your plans for this evening?" he asks.

"I was going to drop of some dinner for Sasuke and check in on him. It's been a while since I last checked out his eyes, you know how he is about hospitals."

"Oh, I remember he promised to assist Kakashi with something this evening, he won't be at home" he laughed nervously.

"Oh, well maybe another time then, I'll just go visit Ino if she's not busy tonight then." I say, trying to hide my disappointment.

"You know Sakura-chan, you've been in love with Sasuke-teme since we were kids and he hasn't shown any romantic interest in you ya know, maybe you should date around a bit, see what's out there besides the teme. Who knows, he might get jealous and do something about it..hehe."

"Naruto, you know I'm not like that. I could never manipulate him into being with me and I could never date someone when my heart belongs to another, it won't be fair to anyone. Sasuke-kun will come around. I just know it!"

"Sakura-chan, I just don't want you to get hurt. Sasuke is my best friend, but you are like my sister, I don't want you to get hurt if it doesn't turn out the way you want it to."

"Thank you Naruto, for caring about me so much. I love you."

"I love you to Sakura-chan." He says into my hair.

"Thanks for spending the day with me, I missed you a lot. Now get going, you don't wanna keep Hinata waiting do you?"

"Hehe, your right it's getting late." he plants a quick kiss to my cheek and hurries out the door.

I change into a cute blush pink A-Line dress, which hugs my developing curves and a pair of flats, a light touch of makeup, and I'm ready for my visit to Ino's. As I'm passing the kitchen, I notice the packed bento I had prepared for Sasuke. He might be hungry when he comes home. I could just leave it in his kitchen. " It is on the way." I mumble quietly. OK, mind made up, I grab the bento and I'm out the door.

"The moon is so full tonight" I say to myself as I walk quietly down the path. I notice a lot of couples dressed up in traditional wear. "Must be another festival." As I walk to Sasuke's home, I start to daydream about Sasuke. He has grown even more handsome, his face and body more manly. It would be nice if we could go out on dates together. I just love him so much, I know he likes me, he's been so nice to me since he came back and he only let's me treat him at the hospital. He held my hand a few months ago, he's definitely warming up, he's just moving at a snails pace.

I blushed at that the last time he came to visit me at work, he brought me a bento with my favorite dishes.

The slight flare of a familiar chakra interrupted my thoughts. "Sasuke-kun?" I thought he was supposed to be with Kakashi sensei.

I spread out my chakra to locate him but I couldn't sense him anywhere. What I found was a civilian; a civilian that is in very close proximity to Sasuke-kun.

My breath hitches as I see the approaching figures. He hasn't even noticed me. He hasn't noticed because my chakra is masked so well and because his head is cocked to the side deep in conversation with the girl he is holding hands with.

I quickly flashed stepped behind a tree as they were approaching. The love of my life is with another girl. I feel as if I've been punched in the gut. She is so beautiful. Pale unblemished skin, her black hair done intricately in a side bun with lose strands framing her face, A pale blue kimono hugging her generous curves. Sasuke-kun looks devilishly handsome in an all black hakama, it compliments him so well. They look like the perfect couple.

How? When did Sasuke-kun meet this person? Maybe she is lost and he's helping her home? He does not need to hold her hand to do so, especially when considering his aversion to touching.

With my head spinning with a thousand questions and scenarios, my ears perk up at the soft mention of my name whispered from the painted lips of the beautiful thing clutching to Sasuke's arm.

"Are you sure she won't be around?" I heard it ask. My chest aching as I sent chakra to my ear to enhance my hearing.

"No, don't worry yourself."

"That's easy for you to say Sasuke-kun, if she finds out that the object of her affections has the attention of another, I could be on the receiving end of one of her infamous punches."

She knows who I am! And she knows how I feel about Sasuke! This is not their first meeting.

Sasuke pulls them to a stop and what he does next plunges the knife straight into my heart.

He tugs her into his embrace, tucking a stray lock of hair behind her ear, his hand now cupping her perfect face and tells her " I will never let her lay a hand on you, she may be strong, but never stronger than me. Do you question my ability to protect you?" she nods her head in agreement, starting into his eyes.

"Do not worry yourself about her anymore, she is just an annoyance who needs to grow up and stop with her pathetic obsession with me." what he does next finish my butchered heart. He leans down and kisses her passionately, their tongues fighting with each other for dominance.

Sasuke-kun, how could you say such horrible things about me? Tears streaming down my face as I look on at the owner of my heart kiss another girl. I clutch my free had to my mouth to muffle my breathing.

After all the gut wrenching training from Tsunade and sleepless nights of studding; I am still viewed as weak? After nearly killing myself healing his eyes; I am pathetic? After blindly giving him all my love and devotion; I am viewed as obsessed and annoying? I did everything for him, gave him everything and this is what I get in return? How could I be so fucking stupid?

A familiar voice pulls me out of my stupor. This has to be a sick fucking joke!

"Sasuke teme, quit sucking face with Ayame-chan!"

My world stops. Please, Naruto no. I shut my eyes and choke back a scream. Please, please please, this can't be real, this isn't happening!

"Naruto-kun, don't be so rude, hello Sasuke-san. Ayame-chan it's so nice to see you again, you look beautiful."

"Thank you Hinata-chan, it's nice to see you again, it's been to long. You look stunning as usual. Naruto-san, please stop teasing my Sasuke-kun; it's nice to see you again as well. Did you enjoy the sweets I made for you? "

"It was the best Ayame-chan BELIEVE IT!

As those words leave the confines of his mouth, I feel another knife sink into my flesh, and its stabbing me in the back over and over with each word that pass his lips, ripping apart the bond we had into shreds.

I can't breathe; they know each other, have known each other for some time it sounds like. My two traitorous teammates are enjoying a double date while they murder me silently.

And Hinata, that fucking lying bitch, after all I've done. If it weren't for me she would still be hiding in alleyways stalking Naruto like the freak she is.

After they make their pleasant greetings to each other, they walk off together to enjoy the rest of their planned evening. And I am here, behind a tree, in the dark, slowly dying from a destroyed heart and multiple knife wounds to the back.

A sob escapes my lips. I want to scream, but I don't want anyone to witness my anguish. I bolt into the darkness of the forest, my hand still crushing against my mouth in a pathetic attempt at holding back my misery.

Branches are ripping at my skin and clothes as I make a mad dash through the forest in attempt to outrun my pain.
