Chronicles of a Broken Land- A Cherry Blossom's Call

By: Heartened Depression

Prologue-

What is love?

The thought had never occurred to her. Was it a simple emotion, a craving for another's attention? She had once claimed she loved a boy. He was overcome with revenge. She gave herself to him, and he had pushed her away without two thoughts. He had broken her mind, body, and soul. Her heart ached for him.
This boy, Uchiha Sasuke, the youngest of the only Uchihas in the world, had left her, Haruno Sakura. He had betrayed her, their team, and all of Konohagakure. She was the last one to see him before his departure, begging him to stay. Sasuke pushed away her cries and merely walked towards his future master's lair, to become a missing nin.
This emotion, love…what was it? Was it herself longing to be held, or was it simply another's words eating at her very soul? Sakura had been through a lot in her years as Team Seven's only girl. Along side Uchiha Sasuke, Uzumaki Naruto, and Hatake Kakashi. She was a fool as a young teenager. Sasuke never showed her the time of day, yet Sakura was happy. Naruto was the beholder of the nine-tailed-fox, and was simply annoying. She had learned to love him as a brother over the years. Hatake Kakashi, her sensei, mentor, and father figure, was always showing her attention. He never scolded her for not catching on to jutsus as easily as Naruto and Sasuke. Naruto never did either, Sasuke on the other hand often commented Sakura on how weak she was.
Naruto Uzumaki was given the burden to hold the nine-tailed-fox within his soul to protect his village. The only problem was, he had never known of this until he was assigned to Team Seven. Naruto was informed of his dilemma, and finally answered his heart's many questions. He told himself he was excluded as a child because he was the wielder of a monster. He became strong, mentally and physically, but he made sure to keep his immaturity, as he grew older. Naruto's dream was to become the Hokage, whoever he fought, Naruto made sure they knew his name and his purpose.
Sasuke Uchiha had one purpose in life, to kill his older brother, Uchiha Itachi. Itachi had massacred all of the Uchiha Clan except for Sasuke at the age of thirteen. He had told his younger brother he wasn't worth killing and left Konoha to join a S-class criminal organization, Akatsuki. Sasuke's rough childhood egged him to become emotional and cruel. He was strong, but not strong enough to kill Itachi. His reason for living upset Sakura on a day-to-day basis because Sasuke didn't care for her the way she wished he would. Sasuke believed she was weak because of her feelings towards him, he didn't think he had enough time to love, let alone care for another.
Two years after Sasuke's betrayal, Sakura surpassed her teacher Tsunade. Tsunade was the Hokage of the village hidden in the leaves, and was one of the legendary sannin. She had tutored Sakura into becoming a medic-nin. Naruto became the youngest ANBU ever in the village of Konoha. He had also become one of the greatest ninja in the village.
At the age of fifteen, Naruto and Sakura were best friends. Still being assigned missions together. Their first a-class mission without Kakashi was the hardest mission they ever did. Naruto, Kiba, Hinata, and Sakura had all been on a team together. Their mission was to protect a young girl on her journey to snow country. Sasuke abducted her for Orochimaru's benefit. The team almost lost Kiba that day; Sasuke had hit him with chidori, creating a gash in Kiba's abdomen. Sakura refused to fight Sasuke and left Naruto and Hinata to do all the work while she tended to Kiba. They retrieved the young girl and completed their mission, later all were hospitalized for at days on end.

As the days passed by, Sakura slowly let go of her love for Sasuke, focusing all her attention on her work at the hospital and her patients. Her love for her friends and mentors grew creating a bond between families that held rivalries for years. The ties she made left an impact in the village that would never be broken. Through all of her progress Sakura never forgot about Sasuke. The thoughts of her formal love ate at her insides and racked her mind with doubts that she wasn't good enough to care for another.

Naruto claimed she was wrong, telling her she would find someone that loved her and that she would love back. Ignoring his kind words, all Sakura would do was train when she wasn't at the hospital. Tsunade and Kakashi kept close watch on the konoichi, hoping she wouldn't do anything foolish. She put on a strong front, but when it came down to it, if you knew Sakura, you would know she was the unhappiest she had been in all of her life the year of her fifteenth birthday…But that changed the day she turned sixteen….
