CHAPTER 1

Runaway

(Normal POV)

Sakura sighed for the billionth time today. Nothing was going right, she almost lost a patient, no one will train with her, everyone in town is avoiding her like she has the plague and Tsunade just called her with urgent news; what the hell is so important? She sighs again and headed for Hokage Tower.

Sakura climbed the last few steps to the top of the tower. Weaving her way through the countless hallways and rooms she successfully reached the Tsunade's office. She knocked lightly and a loud, booming voice shouted:

"Come in!!"

"Tsunade, you wanted to see m-" The rest of the sentence died in Sakura's mouth before she could finish. There in flesh and blood, sat the proud, egotistical, bastard Uchiha Sasuke. Sakura couldn't breathe. She started to gasp a little after two min. without breathing.

"T-Tsunade what the HELL is he doing HERE?!" Sakura choked out.

"He returned. Sakura I thought you would be happy to see him, aren't you?" Tsunade asked, truly concerned.

"NO! I cannot even BEGIN to tell you how mad-no-LIVID I am! Tsunade how the HELL could you just let him walk back in here?! He could be a SPY for Orochimaru!-" Sakura was cut off when Sasuke said in a monotone voice:

"He's dead."



"What? Uchiha I don't care who you are or why you're here just shut-up and sit DOWN!!" Sakura was PISSED

"Sakura I know you're mad, if I were you I would be to-" Sakura cut him off by saying:

"You ASS-HOLE!! You have no fucking IDEA how much pain you put ME, Naruto, Kakashi or anyone else you know!! You almost KILLED Naruto…" Sakura started to cry "You almost killed h-him, your BEST-FRIEND!!" Sakura was sobbing by now and without any warning she ran from the tower. She wanted someone to hold her and tell her its okay, but she doesn't have anyone like that so she's forced to be comforted by her best-friend: her kunai.

BACK AT TSUNADE'S OFFICE

(Sasuke's POV)

"Tsunade, I'm…a bit worried about Sakura." I have to admit, she was pretty scary and, not to mention, pissed.

"I know. She's been acting strange lately. Especially if you touch her arms, she yank them away and usually says stuff like 'Don't do that!'….I wonder what's wrong….maybe she's sick." I hope…no, she couldn't.

"Tsunade…I think she's cutting." The truth must be known.

AT SAKURA'S HOUSE

Sakura made a few more cuts on her right arm before moving to the left.

'You should stop.' Inner Sakura mused.

'I know I should but I can't.'

'Tsunade's intelligent, she'll see through your act one day.' Inner Sakura left, leaving outer Sakura to think about what she said. "Will she find out?" She asked no one in particular. Sakura began to think of everything, and came up with a very simple solution: LEAVE.

Sakura jumped from roof to roof silently, and found herself at the gates of Konoha. 'I must leave.' She thought. Hoisting the pack on her shoulder a little higher she jumped off into the night.



"Don't forget me…." Was the last words she spoke before she left the village. Sakura left letters to her dearest friends and prayed they would not come after her.
