"I'm getting very worried about Sakura." A blonde busty woman whose name is Tsunade worries.
"I agree she's… emotionless." A guy with silver hair agrees whose name is Kakashi.
Tsunade sighs, then begin to speak again.
"Send in Cat, Swan, Dog, Deer, Eagle, Turtle, Butterfly, Dragon, Beetle, Choji, and Panther.
In less than 10 minutes everyone is in the Hokage's office. (Just so you know everyone's in Anbu.)
"I called you guys here to give you this dangerous mission. You will go to the sound village and assassinate a man named Kinji Anura but be careful, he's capable of a lot of things."
Tsunade stops for a moment to let it all soak in.
"This mission has to be a complete success with that being said, any questions or concerns?"
"I have one why is a lot of us going just to kill one man? An eagle mask man asked.
Good question, I can't really tell you the answer to that question, but trust me, you'll need all the help you can get. Any other questions… Ok Cat will be your captain and Dog will be your co-captain you will listen to your captain. I know you all haven't seen each other since the war but who cares just complete the damn mission, mission starts at midnight dismiss.
Tsunade dismisses everyone and sits back in her chair and start drinking some sake.
"I hope her friends can snap her back to her usual self." Tsunade last thoughts were before the season came in with more paperwork.

Sakura packed everything she needs and sits on her bed glaring at a picture of team 7 back in the ole days.
She picks up the picture and throws it in the closets shattering the glass.
Sakura's parents were killed by a couple of thugs. After that day Sakura was never the same.
She went over to all her friend's house for some comfort, but they were all training and didn't want to be disturbed.
When she needed some comfort Naruto decided to leave the village and travel.
Sakura took off her cloak with her hood and the mask which was a cat.
Sakura grew over the years her cotton candy hair was now to her butt, she now had curves that couldn't be beat not even by Ino, she was more "chested".
But the thing that use to stand out more than her hair was her beautiful emerald orbs they use to shine in the moonlight every time the sky was dark and the moon was the only source of light. But now her eyes were dull and had no shine not even a glint of light in those green emotionless eyes.
She sighs and starts thinking to herself about the mission. 'Working with those idiots, but an interesting mission indeed.'
She takes a quick shower and starts to meditate to get her energy up.
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
With the others
Everyone decides to remove their mask and hang out like old times the girls go to one place and the guys go to another.
The girls
"Wow, all of us in Anbu this is great!" Ino shout ethusically.
"It was no surprise were the best in the village." Tenten grins from ear to ear but then frowns.
"What's wrong Tenten-San?" Hinata says in a quiet tone.
"Yeah Tenten it's girls night out no frowns tonight." Ino eyes Tenten wondering what's up as well.
"What a girl's night out without Sakura." Tenten whisper, although the other girls heard her.
Hinata and Ino looks at each other sadly. "Your right Tenten, I miss her too." Ino admits.
"Maybe we should go visit her." Hinata suggest.
"No use I tried, she's either not home or not answering." Tenten tells the girls
The girls sigh simultaneously and begin leaving to get ready for the mission.
The boys
They ended up walking around until they got hungry. They found their selves in front of Ichiraku ramen.
They look at each other and shrug and walk into the shop and order some ramen.
They ate in silence until someone broke it.
"Anbu huh?" Kiba asked, trying to break the silence.
Everyone nods their head, then Neji speaks up.
"Wow Shikamaru never thought you'll join the Anbu would think it's too troublesome."
"My old man wouldn't leave me alone about it, but here I am." He shrugs and continue eating then talks again.
"But who is this "cat" Anbu." Everyone thinks about it for a while.
"The top Anbu in years no one knows if there a he or she." Sai tells them
"It's obviously a guy no girl is that good." Kiba says smirking.
"Well, maybe we'll find out soon." Shino says with a straight face.
"Kiba how did you make it In the Anbu any way your an idiot." Sai says still fake smiling.
Kiba's face turns very red from anger or embarrassment and mumbles a few curse words.
Everyone laughs well, except for Neji and Shino who just smirks.
"Your youthfulness can't be beat Kiba-kun!" Lee added in trying to cheer his friend up.
Everyone stops laughing and smirking for a minute to look confusingly at Lee then burst back in laughter this time Kiba joins in.
After all that laughing and enjoying themselves, they decide to go home and pack and take a quick nap.
Xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox
At the front gate
Sakura decides to be the last one to get there so they can talk about dumb stuff.
Sakura walks up to them and they instantly quiet down. She nods their way and walks up to Tsunade.
Everyone waits to hear the Anbu captain talk hoping they would know who it was. Even Neji and Shino wanted to know who it was.
Sakura looks Tsunade in the eyes to ask her question.
Tsunade answers out loud. "You'll be gone for at least 2 months and don't attract attention to yourselves."
Everyone wonders the same thing while Kiba says it aloud.
"How the hell did the Hokage know what she asked without saying it?" Everyone just shrugs and runs it off their shoulders.
With that being said, they immediately rushed into the woods.
They were traveling for at least a few hours until Sakura stopped.
She held her hand up for them to stop.
"Why are we stopping?" Kiba asks until he smelt a familiar scent following them.
"Orders?" Kakashi asks reluctantly
"We wait for our guests to come we'll set up camp, I'm pretty sure you'll want to see our guest again." Her voice was nothing like it use to be instead it was cold ice cold not one hint of emotion slipped out of her.
Everyone shivered at the tone of her voice and her dark aura.
With one flick of her wrist some trees seemed to have disappeared from their sight.
"We'll set camp here our guest should be here in 10 minutes." She sits down and starts meditating.
"Well he or she gives me the creeps. Choji says. Everyone nods in agreement.
After about 8 minutes Sakura continues to meditate without moving an inch.
Neji and Hinata goes on patrol while the others eat their fish Tenten caught for them. After seeing that it was all clear Neji and Hinata joins their friends.
In a flash a blonde haired guy appears out of nowhere and swings his kunai at Sakura. But Sakura foreseen the attack the blonde was trying to do. She counters with her own sword, changing her position and making him retort.
He lands on the ground beside a guy with black duck butt hair that's black with a Sharinigan also shocked.
"Naruto Sasuke?!" Ino shouts confused as to why they're here.
Naruto turns his head over to the group who took out their weapons and formed their jutsu.
"N-Naruto-kun." Hinata whispers.
"Do I know you people?" Naruto rubs the back of his head with his hand grinning for some strange reason.
Everyone lowered their weapons and smiled or smirk, in lee's case cried. They all removed their masks for them to see their face.
Sakura stood up and walked away saying she'll be on patrol.
Naruto and Sasuke scans the crowd of friends looking for someone.
"It's great to see you guys, but where is Sakura-chan?" By the looks on their faces Naruto was scared to hear what they had to say.
"She didn't die did she?!" Naruto shouts and ask at the same time.
"Well, that's to be expected since she's the weakest of us all." Sasuke says earning him a couple of death glares.
Everyone ignores Sasuke's little comment about Sakura and Ino speaks up.
"Well Naruto we haven't seen her since you left." Ino answers Naruto's question.
"So why were you chasing us anyway?" Kakashi asks, pulling out his book.
All of a sudden a senbon goes pass Kakashi to a nearby tree.
Then "cat" appears behind Kakashi and whisper into his ear, although everyone can hear her.
"I'll advise you to put that book away while we're on a mission." Kakashi could practically feel cat's dark aura on him he could feel his spine start to tingle.
Cat walks away from him and glares at Naruto and Sasuke.
"Let's go we should get there in a day or two we have no business to do with you feel free to do whatever you like." Sakura's cold tone could be heard no doubt about.
"Where are you guys going If you don't mind me asking." Sasuke finally speaks up after an eternity of silence.
"It's none of your concern." Sakura spits back not caring for the Uchiha's attitude. (A/n they still don't know if she's a girl or boy it will be revealed in this chapter.)
Sasuke glares at the person known as cat well he doesn't know that. "At least tell me your name."
"I see no need in that for my own team doesn't know my name." Sakura begins to walk away with the rest following.
"Psst Sasuke this guy creeps me out." Naruto starts to shiver from cat's cold voice.
"Let's follow them their leader said we can do whatever we want so we choose to follow." Sasuke begins to walk after them
Naruto sighs, but follow reluctantly.
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
They finally make it to their destination well an hour away.
"We are going undercover and find some information on Kinji Anura so we change into civilian clothes and meet back here in 10. With that being said, she disappears to probably go change.
"We are finally going to see who Cat is." Tenten says a little too excited.
"Yeah, this is going to be exciting!" Ino squeals.
"W-we should probably go change." Hinata says shyly.
"Ok, let's go girls." Ino says happy to get into some better clothes.
Everyone is changed and is waiting for Cat.
"When I see this person I am going to kick their ass." Naruto says wearing his usual black and orange jumpsuit and his little sandals that stop right to his calves.
"Your youthful spirit never changes Naruto-kun!" Lee in his usual green jumpsuit happy as ever now that both of his rivals are back.
"Whatever." Sasuke impatient not giving a fuck about anything wearing a gray high-collared short-sleeved shirt. He also wears blue wrist warmers with his shuriken armbands hidden wore dark blue pants with a blue cloth hanging from halfway up his stomach to his. He also wore a purple rope belt around his waist, tied in a bow, in which he carries his sword.
"I would be lying if I said I wasn't a little happy to see you two." Shino finally speaks up receiving stares since he was wearing. His jacket hanging down to his knees and the addition of a hood that obstructs his face even more and a satchel on his back with his shades covering his face."
"Who are you?" Naruto asks, looking in his brain for at least his name.
Shino then turns depress mumbling something about not being remembered.
"Let's stop fooling around already and get going I want to finish this task as soon as possible." The voice sounds like it was coming from all over the forest.
A beautiful woman walks back to the place they were supposed to meet with an indescribable look on her face.
Everyone stutters even though Kakashi knew Sakura was the top Anbu he didn't know she was so beautiful.
Sakura keeps walking, then stops and looks around at the dumbstruck faces.
"S-Sakura-chan?" She turns towards him scaring the daylights out of him with her eyes.
"Sakura what the hell happened to you?" Sasuke wondered as everyone agreed with that question. She was wearing her hair in a ponytail so it wouldn't get in her face and she wore a black tank top and spandex shorts and her usual knee high boots with a little heel on.
He had to admit she looked pretty damn good, but he bets her skills haven't improved one bit.
"I don't find that necessary… team lets get going." She walks away not even bothering to look back at them.
Everyone was quiet on their way to the sound village so she decides to read their mind.
She does a couple of symbols and whisper mind reading jutsu.
Naruto
I can't believe it Sakura-chan has changed into a…a…a monster. Although she looks amazing she stills creep me out.
Sasuke
I wonder how strong this weakling has gotten she probably still likes me like the little worthless fan girl she is.
She continues to read minds.
Ino
I never actually feared Sakura until now, but she's different. She's going to take all of the attention from me.
Sai
Hmm ugly isn't ugly anymore what shall her nickname be now.
Shikamaru
I would have never expected Sakura to be the number 1 Anbu what happened to her.
Neji
She would be a truly worthy opponent indeed.
Choji
I wish Sakura would go back to her old self she creeps me out.
Shino
Who would of thought that Sakura Haruno would be the best Anbu they have.
Kiba
I can't believe I said that the number one Anbu wouldn't be a girl.
Just as Kiba was thinking that he didn't see a senbon until it flew pass his face only inches it went pass 3 trees. Kiba now scared stops thinking about a girl never being the number one Anbu and focus on the mission.
Lee
My cherry blossom youthfulness has disappeared into nothing.
Tenten
Poor Sakura hurt so many times by so many, if only I could of helped her instead of focusing on my training.
Hinata
Naruto-kun is back, but is still in love with Sakura-San I just wish he would love someone else like myself.
After hearing half of everyone's thoughts her anger was taking a huge toll on the branches she steps on. Her anger spike so high the whole tree went some inches into the ground.
Kakashi then tries to get Sakura to calm down. "S-Sakura your anger is getting a little out of control." What scared the shit out of him was how emotionless her face was and they were yellow.
Kakashi was frozen right then and there shocked at what he just saw.
Sakura stops in the branch and looks behind her to see a big mess.
Sakura closes her eyes and sighs when she opens them, they're back to their normal color and mutters an apology.
"We should walk on feet now wouldn't want any attention drawn to ourselves."
Everyone lands on the ground gracefully with no problems.
They finally reach the gates to the sound.
"I'll do the talking." Sakura says as if they would object.
"I think I should." Sasuke speaks up daring to object.
Sakura sighs for the what, the third time that day.
"I'm not in the mood to argue back and forth so do what you like."
Sasuke begins to walk up to the guards and start talking to them.
Until they started laughing in his face, which made the Uchiha angry.
"What the hell is so funny." Sasuke asks well more like demanded them to talk.
"You killed Lord Orochimaru and expect us to let you in." One of the guard says basically calling the Uchiha an idiot.
Sakura walks up and does a few hand signs and says.
"Akumu No Jutsu" She flashes behind them two and touch their foreheads.
Then the two guards instantly faint and start shaking.
Sakura could feel her legs start to fail her and she thought she was going to fall until a blonde blur came and held her up grinning sheepishly.
"Are you ok Sakura-chan." Trying to look in her eyes for any emotion but she let one slip hatred.
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxooooooooooooo
When they got to the motel they'll be staying at they instantly picked their rooms to rest up
Sakura walks out of the motel and walks into an open field probably a training field and meditate.
xx
He was sharing a room with Sasuke and begins walking back and forth.
Thinking about what he saw in her eyes. 'How could she have so much hatred in her eyes how did she get so strong.' He was still thinking about until Sasuke called his "name."
"Sit down dobe." Sasuke was laid back on his bed with his eyes closed.
"You don't understand Sasuke when I looked at Sakura-chan's eyes when we were younger it was never the look of hatred well towards me. But instead it's filled with a lot of it."
Naruto stops walking back and forth and looks around for his jacket.
"Where do you think your going dobe?" Sasuke asks Naruto now sitting up with his eyes open.
"I'm going to find Sakura-chan and ask her." Naruto now determined tells Sasuke.
Sasuke laughs a little before talking again "do you really think Sakura would tell you she's emotionless, but I'll come to watch you fail." Sasuke then gets up and walks over to me.
"Gee, thanks for the support." They both leave, but run into a bunch of their friends.
"Hey guys." Naruto waves to them in the lobby.
"Naruto and Sasuke was up?" Kiba asks them both.
"Oh, nothing we were sort of going to look for Sakura-chan you guys seen her?" Naruto asks knowing they most likely didn't.
Sasuke noticed them tense up, but didn't say anything.
"Not really." Shikamaru says back bored as ever.
"Oh." Naruto says sadly.
"Cheer up dickless Sakura can take care of herself." Sai smiles this time a real one.
"Sai!" Naruto yells.
Everyone smiles and smirks or in Hinata's case, blush at the still same Naruto.
"I'm still going to look for her anyway." Naruto storms off leaving everyone confused. Sasuke sighs and goes after him.
Sasuke catches up with Naruto hearing him say something's about that Sai guy.
They finally find her in a sound nin training ground meditating.
"Well, what's the plan genius?" Sasuke asks not holding back the sarcasm.
Naruto glares at him and speaks "well hehe I was sort of hoping you'll come up with a plan." Naruto smiles nervously.
Sasuke sweat drop, but before he could retort he was interrupted by a female cold voice.
"What do you want?" Sakura's cold voice said in a not caring tone.
Sakura turns around towards them with a killer intent and hatred.
"S-Sakura-chan we just wanted to know if you wanted to hang out, you know, like the ole team 7." Naruto suggests.
"No." She replies not even thinking about it.
"Pppplease Sakura-chan." Naruto begs her this time.
"No." She says again with no emotions.
"Why not?" Sasuke asks not really caring at all.
"I have my reasons and personally I don't find it any of your concerns." She does a summoning jutsu and a hawk appears she writes down a message and the hawk takes the message and goes.
"If you'll excuse me I…" Sakura begins to say until she drops holding her head like it's going to explode.
Naruto and Sasuke looks at her in shock until she then goes unconscious. Naruto and Sasuke rushes over to her Naruto first one by her side and picks her up bridal style.
They start yelling her name but she won't answer so they decide to take her to the motel.
They get to the motel in less than 5 minutes and quickly finds Ino with Hinata and Tenten.
"Ino!" They both yell simultaneously.
Ino turns towards them shocked to see them with her captain unconscious.
The girls quickly run over to them.
"Set her on the bed." Ino says surprisingly calm.
"W-what happen to her?" Hinata asks still in shock that their captain is unconscious.
Naruto sets Sakura on the bed and tell them what happened.
Ino walks over to Sakura and uses her mystical palm technique on her head.
But then is knocked back to the motel wall just as that was happening the guys came in.
"What's going on here." Neji asks as Ino was getting helped up.
"Naruto explains the story again to the guys that just came in shocked.
"That doesn't explain why Ino got knocked backed into the wall." Shino added in.
"It's like her mind doesn't want to be healed or can't. Hinata use your Byakugan and I want you to tell me if you see something out of the ordinary when I use the mystical palm technique again."
Hinata nods and turns on her Byakugan.
Ino then uses the mystical palm again the same thing happens again.
"Well Hinata did you see anything?" Naruto asks the shy girl who nodded to his question.
Everyone waiting eagerly for her to say what she saw.
"It seems all of her chakra goes straight to her mind to block out everything that has anything to do with her mind." Hinata says positive.
"Ino why don't you try going into her mind."
Kakashi suggest which Ino decided to do.
"Shintenshin No Jutsu." Her body falls back, but is caught by Shikamaru.
In Sakura's mind
"Wow, it's so dark in here I can't see where her brain is." Ino then bumps into something probably her brain.
She then begins to look through her memories until one memory stood out the most.
Flashback
"Mom, dad it's been a while since I visited you I bet you're probably worried about me, but don't worry, I got rid of all my emotions since you died and I've been abandoned by my friends. Emotions are nothing but things that hold you back the next time I visit your grave… will be the next time I'm the strongest Anbu member goodbye mother and father for this is the last time you'll see the emotion sad from me. My last emotion will be hatred towards all of my old friends."
Flashback end
Before Ino could look at her memories any further she heard a voice so she wanders around and is lead to a figure standing over another figure.
"H-hello." The figure steps aside to reveal Ino's body their all bloody up.
The figure steps into the light to reveal the person as Sakura.
"You know you were a big pain in my side to bad I had to kill you." What scared the shit out of Ino was her eyes were blood colored eyes and the fact that she saw her body laying in front of her best friend.
Ino about to dispel the jutsu until she felt a punch that possibly broke her ribs. That's when the jutsu broken
Normal pov
Ino eyes open and she started coughing up blood. Ino then uses the mystical palm on her ribs to heal them.
Everyone shocked and dying to know what happened in Sakura's mind.
They could hear a few words in between Ino's panting. They heard the words death eyes parents, friends and training.
They were waiting for a while for Ino to heal her ribs until she was done.
"Ino are you ok now?" Choji asks as she stood up with a little bit of help from Shikamaru and Kiba walking her over to the other bed.
"Yeah I'm fine." Ino tells Choji who is still worried about her.
"Well, what happened in there?" Sasuke says calmly but on the inside dying to know.
Ino then burst into tears everyone looks at her confused.
"How could we have not known how could we be such horrible friends?!" Ino asks/cries.
"I don't understand what do you mean by that Ino?" Tenten asks, sitting down beside her trying to calm her down.
Ino tries desperately to regain her composure. "Her parents died the memory I saw was her at their graves she said that emotions are nothing but things that hold her back, she then said that we as her friends abandoned her. She then said goodbye to them for that was going to be the last time they see the emotion sad from her, but instead her last emotion will be hatred towards us." She took a moment to continue as she blinked back tears.
"I heard a voice.." She whispers enough so everyone can hear her.
"What do you mean by you heard a voice?" Shino asks her reluctantly.
"Her eyes were red I saw my own death, but the bad thing is she was the one who killed me and injured me like this."
After Ino said all of that, everyone In the room looked shocked, sad, depress, and last but not least regret.
Everyone was quiet for a minute until they heard a loud bomb go off in the middle of the sound village. Some ran to the small window to see what it was they then saw the man they were looking for.
"It's Kinji Anura!" Lee says shocked.
With his loud booming voice he yelled. "Come out come out wherever you are leaf scum!" He then laughs evilly that echoes throughout the whole village. Everyone was thinking something along the lines of so much for under cover.
"What do we do our captain is out of commission." Tenten asks aloud.
"We're going to need all the help we can get are you two in?" Kakashi asks Sasuke and Naruto.
Sasuke nods his head while Naruto looks back at Sakura and begins to think to himself.
'I'm sorry Sakura-chan I'll make sure your mission is a complete success.'
When Naruto was done thinking to himself he looked at everyone and grinned "you bet I'm in." Naruto says excited.
With that being said everyone gets ready to leave except for Ino and Tenten who's stuck watching over Sakura.
"Here we come Kinji Anura the leaf's finest at your doorstep!" Naruto shouts thinking he'll hear a unison of yeahs or something but instead gets a bunch of stares.
"What?" Naruto wonders why they're staring at him.
"That's the best you can come up with you really are a dobe." Sasuke says. Everyone agrees except for Hinata of course.
"Whatever lets just go." Naruto grumbles at everyone agreeing with Sasuke.
