Sakura sat on the roof of the apartment building as she always did every October 10 tenth. She sat there and though about how she forced away her last close friend 10 years ago. She could still see the look of her in his big sky blue eyes. Sakura just sat there looking up at the sky, which reminded her of her old friends eyes. As far as she knew the boy could be dead. She started smiling at the good times her and the boy and her other friend had. Then she thought about what the boy did. Her hatred for the boy took control of her. She screamed an angry shriek throughout the village of Konoha. Then she sat down and let the tears that she had been holding back the whole time flow down her beautiful face.
A figure appeared behind her in the standard Konoha Jonin uniform. Sakura stood up and turned around to look at the man. She stared deeply into his black eyes, which as always was comforting. She then ran into his arms and he warmly embraced the crying pink haired woman.
"Sakura you have to forgive. He saved us all if it wasn't for him then it wouldn't be a me and you or Saru." Sakura didn't say anything but deep down in her heart she knew the man was right. For if Orochimaru hadn't tempted Sasuke Uchiha to leave the village then Sasuke would have never came back to the village to invade it, to be killed by Naruto Uzumaki. So if Naruto never killed Sasuke then Sakura would have probably married Sasuke and Naruto would still be in Konoha. " Just think about it," the Jonin said as he left Sakura alone. Sakura sat back down but didn't have much time to think about it because Ino came over on the rooftop next to Sakura.
' Sakura Hokage-sama wishes to see you. I think he wants to give you a mission."
" Thanks Ino" replied Sakura. Sakura stood up wiped her face and looked around at the village she loved. She then smiled as the clouds blocking the sun moved out the way to let the rays of light caress her face. " No use crying, it's like Konohmaru said I should forgive Naruto and if I ever see him again I will.'
Sakura rushed to the Hokage's building jumping rooftop to rooftop. She loved the feeling of the wind in her hair. She jumped off the rooftops and to the ground, still running but now through a crowd of people. As she got closer to the building she stopped running and started walking. A disappointed looking old man walked over to Sakura and asked, " please keep running" practically begging as he asked. " Why old man"
" Because I'm doing research, and you have some seriously bouncy boo…" Sakura cut the old man off to yell at him " YOU PERVERT" Sakura took back her fist and hit the dark skinned old man in the nose. A poof of smoke surrounded the old man and when it cleared it reveal Jariya he winked at Sakura as she punched him again and sent him through the fence and beyond. " Stupid creepy old man" Sakura said now all angry from the man perverted words. She walked up to the door of the Hokage office. She tried to calm down because last time when she was angry and knocked on the door she knocked it off it's hinges. Sakura was about to knock on the door when the door opened to reveal Kakashi.
" Hokage-sama you wanted to see me " Sakura said to him" Yes, yes come in."
Sakura followed her old sensei into the Hokage's office. Kakashi sat down in the Hokage chair. It looked so weird to Sakura to see Kakashi sitting were Tsunade always sat.
" As you know two month's ago Tsunade-sama our previous Hokage was killed."
" Yeah" replied Sakura sadly.
" Well they made an attempt on the Kazekage of the sand village."
" What, not Gaara" said Sakura, her eyes starting to water.
" He's in the hospital in bad shape but he'll live." Kakashi told Sakura.
"Thank god" Replied a relieved Sakura.
"Well the thing is it was two people who almost took out Gaara. They killed 10 of Suna's most powerful Jonin."
" They must be strong," said Sakura.
" Obliviously they are strong. They took out Tsunade by themselves. Anyway Kankrou managed to capture one of their members. Who told us all about the organization Kyuubi."
" Kyuubi is N… is Naru"
"No the leader is a guy named Kyu. The Elite members of the group are known as tails. The first tail is the weakest and the ninth tail is the strongest. They captured the first tail which was a girl named Hitomi but she got away from the interrogation room when the second tail helped him."
" Your mission is to find the first tail and eliminate him and if you can the second tail to. Oh wait before I forget if you can interrogate the to find out the purpose of the group."
" Hai."
" Sakura you're going on the mission with Konohmaru, your fiancée and the best ninja for interrogation. You have one day to get ready to leave. Be gone tomorrow at 10 am at the east village gate. So go get ready."
" Hai."
" Good luck Sakura"
" Hai, and thanks sensei for giving me the chance to get revenge for them killing Tsunade." Sakura walked over and hugged and kissed her sensei on the cheek then left the office. Now it was time to get ready for the mission. Sakura ran store to store getting bandages, shurikens, and senbon. She also got many herbs, some for making medicines, and some to eat. Sakura went home and sharpened her katana sword. It was her fathers from the days when he was a wondering samurai. Sakura had the sword on the mantle above the fireplace. Next to it was Konohmaru weird sword that his fathers, Asuma Sarutobi had used. Sakura grabbed her sword and slowly unsheathed it.
She looked at it and noticed a shadow reflecting off the sword she moved the sword to make the shadow more visible, when she did she noticed the shadow was Konohmaru. Sakura waited until he moved real close to her then she turned around and jumped on him. Konohmaru fell but he took Sakura down with him. Sakura started laughing and so did Konohmaru.
Sakura made a move to get up off Konohmaru. She moved her knee and started to push up when she noticed tears in Konohmaru eyes.
" Baby what's wrong" Sakura asked.
Through gritted teeth Konohmaru asked Sakura " do you ever want another kid with me."
" Konohmaru it's Thursday not Friday so where not having sex."
" No if you want more kids then you'll move your knee off my baby maker."
" Oh I'm sorry baby" Sakura moved her knee and Konohmaru stopped crying. Sakura went to go get ice for Konohmaru, but he stopped her and told her he didn't need it.
" Sakura you know how you can make it up to me."
" No how?"
" Accompany me to dinner."
Sakura smiled slightly then she started laughing then she leaned forward and kissed her fiancée.
" Is that a yes?" Konohmaru asked. Sakura leaned forward again and kissed Konohmaru.
Is that a yes?"
"Yes you dope" Sakura finally answered.
Konohmaru started laughing and Sakura joined in. Then they went upstairs to get ready for their date. Half an hour later Sakura came down in a stunning red kimono with cherry blossoms delicately flowing across the dress. " Ready to go my fair maiden."
" Yeah let's go" Sakura replied. They where about to leave out the door holding hands when they heard the crying of a baby " we forgot Saru" Sakura said. knock, knock, knock Sakura went to the door to find Shikamaru and Ino there.
" Babysitters at your service" said Shikamaru and Ino in unison. Sakura ushered them in threw the door. " Shikamaru you messed up, you didn't say it in unison with me do it again" said Ino. " No that's way to troublesome." Replied Shikamaru
" And unnecessary" added Sakura.
" No it's necessary, now on the count of three where doing it again" said Ino very seriously.
" No where in a hurry so don't do it again?" said Sakura.
" Fine, fine" Ino said finally caving in. After getting Ino to shut-up Sakura told her friends what they had to do to get Saru to calm down and go back to sleep. After Sakura told them everything they had to do her and Konohmaru left.
As they where walking trying to decide what restaurant they where going to Konohmaru turned Sakura around to face him. They where in the middle of the street staring at each other in the eye and for the first time in awhile Sakura realized the depth of the feelings Konohmaru had for her. " Sakura I love you" Sakura smiled and blushed. Then as if some unknown force was attracting Sakura to Konohmaru Sakura leaned forward and kissed Konohmaru. They sat there for a good five minutes their soft lips touching each other and their tongues surveying the inside of each others mouths. Sakura moved her tongue all around the inside of Konohmaru's mouth as if trying to memorize everything inside of it. She was probably close to memorizing the inside of Konohmaru's mouth anyway from all the times they kissed like this over the past 4 years.
Finally they broke apart for air. Kiba walked by and nodded his head towards Konohmaru, which made him smile shyly. Then Sakura started walking which was a symbol to Konohmaru to start walking to. " Let's go to Ichraku's new restaurant branch tonight". " Sure" replied Konohmaru. The walk to the restaurant was a short walk and even though Sakura and Konohmaru didn't talk much they still said a lot.
At the restaurant Sakura and Konohmaru sat and started talking about the mission tomorrow. " Konohmaru tomorrow… tomorrow we have to pull that mission off perfectly."
" We will, I do every mission perfectly."
" No this mission is the same as your other missions. This mission is a mission where I will exact my revenge."
" Revenge isn't always the right answer Sakura."
" Yeah but this revenge is for a loved one."
" I know but think about it. If you where obsessed with getting revenge on Naruto for killing Sasuke, then you would have never realized how mature I was that one faithful night on the rooftop. Your like for me would have never increased to love over the next four years of us hanging out. If that didn't happen then when I asked you out then you would have turned me down."
" Your right but I still have to avenge the death of the person who's been like a mother to me."
" And we will tomorrow."
After that conversation they rest of the night went back to them not talking but saying a lot. Actually they where talking with their eyes. Over the years of being together they learned to hear what each other was saying by looking in their eyes. Their romantic evening went by great. The only thing that distracted them that evening was to see Temari walk by and Shikamru follow two minutes later chasing after her. After that they went back to the house. They went back to find Saru sleep the only unusual thing was now Temari was their instead of Ino. Konohmaru thanked the babysitter's then showed them to the door. Then he walked back to the living room and gave Sakura a look like you know what I want. Sakura said "ok" and Konohmaru took Sakura upstairs bridal style and closed the door. Behind the door the only sounds you could hear was Konohmaru screaming because he was beating the hell out of Sakura… at scramble the board game.
