This is the first time I'm publishing one of my stories. I'm just figuring things out, so sorry if the layout is.
~Attention~
This story contains SasuSaku in it. There will be a lot more as the story progresses. This is what I'd like to happen at the end and after the war. It'll be a mix between romance and humour. Also, sorry if I miss spelled somethings like names.
I do NOT own Naruto. I am simply a fan
" We're prepared to give the final attack," Lady Tsunade bit her lip as she Shizune announced the news. The Leaf Village Elders sat to her left, staring at her intensely.
" Sakura!" Lady Tsunade snapped, " I want you to go to the frontlines with Naruto and the others."
The elders gasped. Sakura looked at her, also confused. Throughout the war she was mostly at the back, healing the wounded.
" Are you sure that's a good idea?" Shizune murmured, " Sakura is one of the best medical ninja from the village. She's a big part of that medical squad, and taking her out will leave them almost helpless."
" They have you," Lady Tsunade turned to Sakura, " We need you supporting us in the frontline. The five kage have faced Madara, and he is the toughest opponent all of us have ever faced. We need her help at the very front, supporting Naruto and the others."
" But they're all Chunnin!" one of the elders said. Lady Tsunade twitched. She was too distracted to identify the voice.
" They're Chunnin all right," Lady Tsunade smiled, " But they're all jonin standard."
Sakura bit her lip, " What do you want me to do?"
Lady Tsunade looked at her, " We have had some spies infiltrate their hideout. These spies learned that Sasuke will make his way through a certain path, at a certain time to the ruins. That's where you and Shizune come in,"
" What?" Shizune looked at her mentor with as much confusion as Sakura did. They both glanced at each other.
" I want you to stop Sasuke, or at least make him late!" Sakura gasped. Was the Hokage seriously considering her taking on Sasuke? Was she actually expected to use the skills she had just honed on him?
Lady Tsunade nodded, " Sakura…something's telling me you have to do this mission. I'm sorry, but I've got this feeling that fighting him might bring something good. Will you take this on?"
Shizune didn't need a second to think this through, " Hai Milady!"
" Hai; Milady," Sakura whispered. She knew that ever since the start of the war, those few precious training times where she learned to miraculously do earth style in such a short period, and where she perfected her chakra control even more gave her a whole new level.
Shizune put her hand on Sakura's shoulder, " You can do it, Sakura." There was something in Shizune's eyes she couldn't read. Same with Lady Tsunade. Her master knew something about her that she didn't even know.
Sakura stopped. Her heart started to beat faster as she realised this was the place she and Shizune were meant to stall Sasuke and his two other friends. They had made arrangements, Shizune would handle this Suigitsu and Jugo, while Sakura would go for Sasuke. Naruto would be at the ruins, along with the five Kage, trying to stop Madara.
She stiffened as she felt Sasuke's chakra. Her fists clenched as she could feel a gentle thud of three pairs of feet landing.
