Summary:
While carrying out a Solo mission, Sakura Haruno was ambushed by Itachi Uchiha, the man who was rumored to be dead, killed by his younger brother, Sasuke Uchiha. Itachi demanded Sakura to heal his eyes even after transfering his Sharingan's powers to Sasuke, his eye sight was still deteriorating. Sakura had refused and was knocked unconscious by Itachi. Itachi was furious and he threw Sakura into a river believing that she would drown being unconscious. But, little did he know that, a certain member from Team Hebi would find her and rescue her.

She was ambushed by someone unexpected. She then lost her memories. Founded by someone from Team Hebi. Could she anymore unfortunate?
A/N: Well, I think this would be my first SasuSaku fic :) Ain't a grammer person so be lenient. Reviews would all be appreciate :D Btw , I just enabled anomynous reviews :)
"So Sakura Haruno, are you going to surrender?" Itachi asked with no expression on his face. Itachi Uchiha, the one who had caused her, Naruto and Sasuke trouble. The one who broke them apart. The one she swore to kill for Sasuke's sake. But wait, why isn't Itachi wearing the Akatsuki cloak? But wait, Rumors had said that Sasuke had killed him...but...why is he still...alive? That question haunted Sakura since the start.
"No, I won't surrender." I growled before struggling to stand properly. I was hit by Itachi's kunai but luckily, it only hit my left leg but also unfortunately was very painful. Itachi looked amused and surprised.
"Very well, if you refuse to come with me to heal my eyes, I won't let you leave this place, until at least...you are only half alive." Itachi said emotionlessly. While Itachi was talking, Sakura took the opportunity to have a quick glance around to see if there was anything she could find to help her.
The whole place was full of trees because she was in the middle of the forest, with Itachi, the person who was behind all Sasuke's nightmares. It would be an easy escape but with Itachi here, being able to safely escape would be tough, the percentage would be slim to none. And most importantly, I have to escape. Konoha needs me.
"I know what you are thinking Haruno, you thought the forest layout would help you, but your escape plan would be useless with me here. Itachi smirked. I scowled. He is on to me alright. Then, my ears perked up. I heard splashing noise. It could only mean one thing; there is a river or stream…nearby. And that was her only chance.
"Since you are clearly a waste if you are killed or severely disarmed by me…I would let you escape...with a head start of…3 counts…" Itachi said emotionlessly.
3 COUNTS?! I How could someone with an injured leg escape?! Being a medic, I immediately started to heal my left leg while limping towards the sound of the river.
"One,"
My chakra was almost gone so I could only lessen the pain in my left leg to walk properly. But even if I lessen the pain, my blood would continue to flow out.
"Two,"
Then, I felt my left leg turned numb. I knew that my leg had given in and I started to fall sideways.
"Three,"
Then, Itachi slowly approached me and stared at me emotionlessly. I laid on the ground on my stomach, trying my best to stand up. Itachi then lifted me up bridal style before walking towards the river. When we reached the river bank, he dropped me.
BLAM!
Ow...my butt...Itachi then continued to stare at me. Suddenly, as fast as lightning, Itachi hit my neck. A sharp pain was felt on my neck, and being a medic, I knew perfectly what was going to happen. I'm going to-
Before I could think any further, I fell unconscious.
Itachi made sure that the girl was unconscious before lifting her up again, bridal style. He had decided to throw her into the river and let her drown since she wouldn't be able to swim when she is unconscious. Then, when Itachi was about to throw the girl into the river, he hesitated.
She might be the only one who could save him but since she refused, he had no choice. He needs his eyesight back to carry out his plan. And this girl wasn't very co-operative. Giving the girl another glance, he found that the girl was actually beautiful and petite. Such a waste if she dies since she is also the apprentice of Tsunade, the person who would be able to help him even if the girl dies...but would she?
Itachi sighed and threw the girl into the river. He watched, as the girl was shallowed into the depths of the river as she was swept away slowly, by the currents. Itachi shook his head before walking away. He needs the girl to save his brother...Sasuke. He needs to keep Sasuke away from Madara, that maniac.
Madara wanted Itachi to help him with his plan of taking over the world but Itachi refused since he only have one goal in mind, to let Sasuke kill him honourably. And since Madara couldn't change Itachi's stubborn mind, he turned his attention to Itachi's younger brother, Sasuke, whose Sharingan might even surpass his.
Itachi knew that the lives of many people lies in his hands now. And so, he slowly walked in the direction to the village he intend to go to.
Suigetsu was very angry. If he wasn't protecting Karin, Jugo wouldn't be severely injured now. Team Hawk was on a mission to find Killer Bee and get him back to the Akatsuki base but Team Hebi was ambushed by tons of ninjas just a while ago after they left the base for only a day. The ninjas were all from different countries and village. Suigetsu figured that they must have decided to work together to take the team down.
Sasuke decided not to use his Sharingan and Chakra in this fight as he wanted to save them up for his battle against Killer Bee, so, Sasuke had instructed Jugo in the base before they started their journey to take on any ninjas who would ambush them and since Sasuke trusted Jugo, he believed that Jugo would handle those ninjas well even without using his cursed seal. Jugo of course agreed since he decided that I would also be there to help if needed.
But, the catch was, Sasuke himself didn't expect Karin to be the target. Sasuke and his team had always been ambushed ever since he founded Team Hebi. But this time, those ninjas went straight for Karin. Since Sasuke still need Karin, he immediately ordered Suigetsu to protect Karin while he and Jugo fight the enemies. But a few managed to slip past Sasuke and Jugo. They were about to attack when Jugo threw himself in front of both Suigetsu and Karin and he in return, got hit by multiple attacks.
Suigetsu of course was stunned. He didn't expect any ninjas to get pass Sasuke so he wasn't ready to take on any attacks. When Suigetsu regained his composure, he immediately started killing all ninjas left alive. After a few moments, all those ninjas who ambushed them were died. Sasuke and Karin immediately went over to Jugo. Jugo was barely breathing. It just, this wasn't the first time Suigetsu had seen someone barely alive but this is Jugo, someone, his comrade.
Sasuke and Karin then decided to continue their journey but Suigetsu himself insisted on camping for the night further abit to the North and let Jugo rest first, and of course, much to Suigetsu's relief, Sasuke agreed.
Luckily for Team Hawk, Suigetsu heard sound of splashing water nearby and so, Sasuke sent Suigetsu to gather water for the team. Suigetsu gathered all members' water bottles before following the sound of the splashing river.
Suigetsu bent down and started to fill the bottles up, one by one. Then, while filling up the last one, something pink floated by and that caught his attention.
"Something pink? What could that be?" He thought. Then, Suigetsu noticed a face, a girl's face. So that 'thing' that was floating was a human. Suigetsu knew at once that the girl was unconscious. Actually, anyone could had guessed that the girl was unconscious from the start since she wasn't even struggling.
Suigetsu then noticed the water currents, it wasn't fast and strong as all, in fact, it was slow. How could a girl like her fall into a river with such slow currents and not know how to struggle and paddle towards the land? Then, Suigetsu noticed the girl had a ninja headband on her forehead.
"This girl must be mad! She's a ninja and she can't even survive such slow current? What kinda ninja is she?" Suigetsu sighed before jumping into the river and swim towards the girl with pink hair. He then grab her and then swim back ashore. Suigetsu threw the girl onto the ground before climbing out of the water.
He then noticed the leaf symbol on the girl's headband.
"She is from Sasuke's hometown eh? Maybe Sasuke knows her...might as well give him as surprise. Well, she at least looked better than Karin." Suigetsu mentally shrugged before he got the girl onto his back. Then he bent down and grabbed the bottles an started his way back to the campsite.
Sasuke was totally irritated. Karin had been pestering him all the while when Suigetsu wasn't here and while Jugo was still unconscious. Sasuke continued wondering when Suigetsu would come back and help him irritate Karin and get her away from him.
Yes, Sasuke valued her strengths and abilities, but, he didn't have any special feelings for the girl though. She was too, hyperactive...and seductive. And he hated that kind of woman. If Karin wasn't even of any use to him, he would had not want her to tag along at all. Then, Sasuke remembered a certain pink haired female from Konoha...someone who had cared for him...and someone who wasn't weak anymore. Sasuke longed to have her on his team...but sadly, he was sure she wouldn't join. He wasn't even sure if she love him still. And thinking of that made his heart ache.
And now, Sasuke had to worry about Jugo too. He has been unconscious since afternoon and now, it was dark. Sasuke looked around, hoping to see Suigetsu but he saw no one except for Karin, trying her best to catch his-
"Suigetsu." Sasuke said when he saw Suigetsu approaching slowly towards the campsite. Sasuke narrowed his eyes. Suigetsu was carrying something or rather, someone on his back while carrying the water bottles.
"Sasuke, lend me your cloak for just tonight." Suigetsu said as he slowly placed the person on his back down onto the ground. Sasuke didn't see who that person was since he was busily taking off his cloak and giving it to Suigetsu before closing his eyes to rest for a moment or two.
"Why did you bring a female leaf ninja here!" Karin shrieked. Suigetsu rolled his eyes before he placed the cloak, given by Sasuke, onto the girl he carried from the river. Suigetsu yawned loudly. Sasuke immediately opened his eyes when he heard what Karin had shrieked out.
"Female Leaf ninja?" Sasuke asked Suigetsu. Suigetsu nodded before pointing towards the girl he brought back. Sasuke turned his attention to the unconscious girl. Sasuke immediately froze when he saw the ninja had pink hair. And he only knew one girl from Konoha with pink hair,
"Sakura." Sasuke gasped softly. Suigetsu raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect Sasuke to know this girl whom he had just saved.
"You know her?!" Karin shrieked. Sasuke ignored her before standing up and walking slowly towards the girl whom he believed is...
"Sakura..." Sasuke sighed softly. He noticed how pale and frail she looked and how soaked she was. Sasuke turned his attention back to Suigetsu and noticed that Suigetsu was too soaked.
"What happened?" Sasuke asked.
"I was filling up the bottles when I saw her in the river and I was shocked when I saw that she was a ninja and the water currents wasn't even fast. I'm sure that either she is a weak ninja who is either a Genin or a Chunnin or she was already unconscious before she landed up in the river." Suigetsu explained. Sasuke nodded and stared at Sakura. He remembered how Sakura was once in love with him, he remembered how weak and powerless she was...and how ignorant and innocent she once looked.
Compared to the present Sakura, the innocent little girl he used to know seemed to disappeared. If he wasn't someone who had known Sakura since young, he wouldn't even believe that this present Sakura was once a powerless and weak little girl.
"You, know her?" Suigetsu asked as he shifted a little for Sasuke to sit so that Sasuke could be beside his 'friend'. Sasuke nodded before looking up at the dark night sky. It has been a while since he saw her.
"She was one of my teammates in Konoha." Sasuke started before giving his attention back to the frail looking girl who was lying on the ground, unconscious, like his teammate, Jugo. Suigetsu's eyes widen while Karin gasped.
"So...was she someone powerful?" Suigetsu asked. Sasuke shook his head.
"She wasn't last time. She was the weakest in our team but She is now, the apprentice of the great Tsunade the fifth Hokage of Konoha." Sasuke explained. This time he smiled softly as he recalled how life used to be when he was with Team 7. Fun, memorable and of course, incredible. Not like he would ever admit that and show his weakness to his teammates.
"That means...she couldn't had just fallen into the river and stayed there to drown instead of paddling or swimming back ashore in such slow currents...she must had been unconscious even before she was in the river." Suigetsu stated. Sasuke nodded.
"When you left Konoha, what was the last thing you said to her?" Suigetsu asked curiously.
"The last thing I told her was...thank you." Sasuke sighed before leaning back against the tree trunk.
"NO! WHY DID YOU THANK HER! Sasuke-kun! Do you like her?! You like me right? I'm sure she's just a normal teammate and-"
"Shut up Karin, stop being a bitch and let Sasuke think. It has been a long day so get some rest, or I would still have to protect you again and that would be impossible because this time, I would fight instead." Suigetsu warned. Karin rolled her eyes before laying down onto the ground.
"Good night Sasuke-kun!" Karin said loudly before closing her eyes to sleep. Suigetsu heaved a sigh of relief. Finally, some peace and quiet.
"What are you going to do with her?" Suigetsu asked.
"We will just let her be. We will be continuing our journey tomorrow." Sasuke replied.
Suigetsu nodded. Then, something struck him.
"Sasuke, maybe...maybe your friend can help Jugo recover faster. She is Tsunade's Apprentice right?" Suigetsu said excitedly. Sasuke then realized that he was too shocked to see Sakura that he had overlooked Sakura's healing skills. Sasuke nodded before try to shake Sakura a little, hoping thst it would wake her up.
"She isn't sleeping you know, she's unconscious so, shaking like-"
Sakura grunted softly before her eyeballs started moving under her eyelids.
"She's waking up." Suigetsu smiled. Sasuke nodded.
My head was aching terribly. It was so painful. My body felt so sore...I don't feel like doing anything now except for resting...then, I felt a shake. Who was shaking me? Where am I? How do I answer to the shake? I grunted as I felt uncomfortable. I was lying somewhere hard and it was really uncomfortable. Then, I heard some voices. One was very familiar...but I couldn't figure out whose. Not that I want to in this state. Only one way to find out though.
I slowly opened my eyes. I saw a pair of Onyx eyes staring into mine. Who was the person staring at me? He looks handsome though. He has dark blue hair and a face many girls would drool over. Then, I noticed another person. He has white hair and he looked scary with his vampire liked fangs sticking out of his mouth. My throat felt dry and hoarse. I tried to sit up slowly and the blue haired guy helped me up and leaned me against the tree and he and the other guy made space for me.
"So, what's her name Sasuke?" The White haired guy asked. I figured that the white haired guy was addressing the blue haired guy, Sasuke, who was still staring at me.
"Sakura." Sasuke replied. What is Sakura? Cherry blossoms? I looked around me, there isn't any cherry blossoms...
"So Sakura, hi, I'm Suigetsu and I figured you know your Teammate here Sasuke right?" The White Haired guy smiled. Suigetsu...who was he? And who was he calling Sakura? Was it me? Was that my name? I was speechless. I couldn't remember anything...who was I...where was I...tons of questions appeared in my head.
"Ermm, aren't you gonna say something?" Suigetsu asked. Sasuke raised his eyebrows as if he was surprised. Suigetsu sighed and shook his head.
"Sasuke, maybe if you try, she might speak. After all, she is your teammate." Suigetsu suggested. Sasuke nodded in agreement before sitting nearer to me.
"Sakura...what happened?" Sasuke asked slowly. So, my real name is Sakura after all.
"Am I...Sakura?" I asked slowly, trying to recall something. Sasuke and his friend, Suigetsu both looked really shocked. Sasuke was the one who regained his composure first.
"Yes, you're Sakura." Sasuke replied. I nodded.
"Suigetsu, what happened to her?" Sasuke asked frustratedly.
"I don't know...it is either she had hit her head pretty hard or she...isn't Sakura." Suigetsu shrugged.
"Sakura, do you remember...Naruto?" Sasuke asked.
Naruto? That name sounds familiar but...who was Naruto? Then, my head started throbbing again. I massaged my temple before shaking my head.
"Sasuke, I think she should rest for-"
"Sakura, then, do you remember...me?" Sasuke asked urgently as if his life depends on the answer I would give. I then tried my best to remember but still...no luck...
"Who are you Sasuke?" I asked.
A/N: Done :) Anyways , Review please . :) Btw , I just enabled anomynous reviews :)
