Chapter 1: His arrival and her departure

INTRO:

The war had ended and Sasuke left Sakura with his promise and goes on his road to redemption…this was one year ago…Sasuke now returns at age 20 and is ready to build his relationship with Sakura and all his other friends (mostly Saku ^_^), however what will he do when she is nowhere to be found….

PRESENT TIME

Sasuke was so tired from my long journey, he didn't bother to set up came in the forest area I just continued without any sleep just so I could come home. He knew it was unhealthy and unsafe of him, yet still he had this feeling of excitement built up in him when he thought of Konoha….it was so strange to feel these things again…Sasuke also had this bubbly feeling when he thought about Sakura…. "I think I need to talk to Naruto about this…hope the dope doesn't make me a laughing stock" Sasuke thought.

Sasuke finally reach the gates of Konoha and was greeted by two men in jounin vest who were unknown to him, however they seemed to recognize him. "Sasuke-sama" the both greeted, in return he just shook his head, he had more important matters to deal with, and right now the pink head medic was the only person he need to see, and so he began his search. Sasuke had gone to Sakura's apartment, the hospital, the ramen shop and heck he even went to Yamanaka's floral shop which was not a pleasant experience however the blonde had been a little helpful. She informed him that no one had seen Sakura in about 4 months and only the Hokage himself knew of her whereabouts. Sasuke now with this new found information decide that it was time to pay his old sensei a visit.

Sasuke made his way to the Hokage's office and proceeded to open the door when he was stopped by what seemed to be Kakashi's secretary. She quickly informed him that " the Hokage" was inside with someone important. This woman clearly did know who Sasuke was….so he simply ignored her and made his way into Kakashi's office, when he walked in he realized it was just Kakashi, Naruto and Tsunade inside. He couldn't believe these were the people the woman outside didn't want him to see. While Sasuke was busy with his inner thoughts the three other occupants of the room were looking at him. They had been in deep conversation when they heard the door swing open, it was odd because Kakashi specifically ask his secretary to not let anyone enter so imagine the shock he got; along with Naruto and Tsunade when he found Sasuke of all people staring into the abyss in his office.

Naruto was the one to break the silence and disrupt everyone's thoughts as he shouted at the top of his lung , "SASUKE! YOU'RE BACK!" Sasuke flinched a little as he allowed the obnoxious blonde to express his feeling. Don't get Sasuke wrong, he had missed the blonde terribly on his journey however expressing it the way Naruto did was out of the question for him. After Naruto's antics had died down and everybody else was allowed to converse with the last Uchiha. Kakashi was the first to start the conversation as he ask Sasuke various questions about his whereabouts over the last year and even though Sasuke really wanted to know about Sakura instead of answering Kakashi's petty questions he did it out of politeness.

Finally when what seemed like a lifetime had gone Sasuke finally asked his question, "Kakashi," he said in a serious tone, "where is Sakura." Kakashi suddenly felt very amused by Sasuke's interest in Sakura and raised an elegant eyebrow, "whatever do you mean Sasuke?" Kakashi asked. Sasuke was now getting annoyed with Kakashi and as Naruto and Tsunade clearly observed the exchanges between the two Sasuke's patience started to run thinner and thinner. "Cut the crap Kakashi" Sasuke said in a clearly annoyed tone, "fine sit down and I'll tell you" Kakashi replied, to this Sasuke complied and Kakashi began to tell Sasuke about Sakura's secret mission (something to know about Sakura's mission….. Naruto and Tsunade also know about it).

FLASHBACK

4 months ago

Sakura had just finished he rounds in the hospital when the she got a special message that the Hokage wanted to see her. She never found it strange that Kakashi wanted to see her, being a team in the past they had spend so much time together so now that they were not together as often they missed each other and being as busy as they were they never really got time so she was more than excited to see her old sensei. When Sakura arrived in the office however she realized that it was for a different purpose she was calle, apparent on one of Kakashi's visit to some crystal land with a kingdom he met Hyame Cascade, the daughter of Haruka Cascade who was the king of the crystal empire…Kakashi claimed to have fell in love with Hyame and on one of their more "intimate nights" he impreganated the princess. Kakashi and Hyame were not aware of the consequences to their actions and Kakashi had returned to the Leaf village unware that Hyame was carrying his child….however a month later Hyame wrote Kakashi a letter stating that her father was killed during a battle two mere weeks after his visit and she was the one ruling the empire but the stress was a lot to overcome and only two days ago she found out she was pregnant with their child. She also stated that even though she want to come to Konoha and share their child with him,she know that neither of them could leave their position right now. Hyame informed him that she already put things into place in the future and that by the next four months his younger sister will take the throne and she will travel to konoha to stay for good. Kakashi agreed with her idea however he wanted someone there with her who he could trust with his love and child and so he decided to send the best persone he could think of.

Sakura was someone very close to him, not only that but she was an amazing medic and a skillful ninja. She was the one who had suit all his requirements and so he told her everything she needed to know and send her off on her lengthy mission. Sakura didn't complain, she set out to take care of her sensei's family. Her only regret not being able to tell Sasuke…

END OF FLASHBACK

Sasuke slowly absorbed all the information Kakashi had now given him…he couldn't say he was shock….he knew Kakashi could be a pervert however he didn't expect him to send Sakura alone much less for so long. His one goal now was to get Sakura back!
