Sakura took a deep breath and stood before the doors to Konoha University. The college in this sect of Konoha was usually reserved for prestigious clans with dominant abilities. To date, only a handful were from the top of the line. The Uchiha, Senju, Aburame, Akimichi, Hatake, Hyuuga, Inuzuka, Nara, Uzumaki, and Yamanaka.
The Uchiha were one of four noble clans, strongest for their eyes, the sharingan. Even though isolated, they still hold highest ranking amongst the clan line of power. The Senju were the clan responsible for Konoha to begin with. They mainly control everything through politics and philosophy. The Aburame are the second of the four noble clans, they intermingle with a rare species of insect upon birth, they form some sort of symbiosis with the insect serving as a host in exchange for the assistance of that breed.
The Akimichi are the third of four noble clans, they are able to manipulate their body weight and size through mere yang release. They can expand size or even turn into a boulder of human flesh. The Hatake are known for their ability to use lightning chakra, even going so far as to hold it in the palms of their hand without getting burned. The Hyuuga is the last of the noble clans, able to cut off or speed up the chakra flow in a person's body with the use of their Byakugan. They can see through solid objects and even into a person's chakra circulatory system.
The Inuzuka are known for their use of canines as companions, they can even turn into a doppelganger of their human owner and fight alongside them as an extra set of hands. The Nara clan is well known for their shadow control. They can cut off air supply with a shadow, pin someone in place with it and are well respected for their high IQ levels. The Uzumaki is highly known for their ability to contain the fox inside the bodies of various members of the clan, the current one being Naruto, who succeeded his mother Kushina in being the vessel.
Lastly, the Yamanaka, known everywhere for their ability to control the mind, they can transport themselves into the mind of their opponent and control everything about them, specializing in mind control this makes them especially useful in attaining information from an enemy in interrogation.
Then there was Sakura Haruno, no known background, no prominent clan, no special abilities, she was just ordinary. She had a strange birthmark on her back but she could never trace the symbol anywhere. It was the perfect combination of the Senju clan symbol, with intricate swirls in the center. She was adopted by the Haruno's and they wouldn't tell her anything.
She stepped through the door and was immediately bumped into by a blonde haired girl with blue eyes. She glared at Sakura "Watch where you're going newbie. Jeez I could have broken my nails if I had fallen or worse, my hair would have been out of place" she said before moving along into the school's hallways.
She sighed before picking up her books, her hands stopping at a person holding her book out, she took it and stood only to find herself face to face with a pale skinned boy who looked like he would kill anyone who crossed his path. "I'm Sakura, thank you for my book." She held her hand out, surprised when he shook it.
"Gaara. Stay out of Ino's way, blondie has a bad hair day when anyone crosses her path." He stated before walking away to join his small group of friends. They continued walking to their classroom while Sakura stepped into the office for her schedule. The nurse stiffly informed her of her classes, her room number and then handed her the schedule and told her to try to keep up with the school's curriculum.
Sakura rushed to her first class with Professor Yuhi. Kurenai taught illusions, genjutsu abilities. How to form the right hand signs, when to conceal yourself and other important information. Sakura found herself wishing the class would end already and she hadn't even been in it for 5 minutes yet.
"Can anyone tell me, what the difference between a Genjutsu interrogation technique and False place genjutsu is?" she asked, Sakura merely rolled her eyes, there was a considerable difference. When no one raised their hands, Kurenai called Sakura, "surely you know the difference Ms. Haruno?" There were snickers around the room and chuckles alongside whispers of insults.
"A false place genjutsu is a jutsu cast on an area that is designed to resemble the destination you are seeking, it changes the appearance of the desired object whereas the interrogation genjutsu is used primarily during times of war when one is trying to extract information from the enemy shinobi. The only one able to resist such powerful jutsu was the Leaf shinobi Rin. She had a strong enough will where it failed to work on her." Sakura stated in a bored tone as if this was merely a review for her.
"Excellent Sakura, I knew someone would know it." She turned her back to the board and began writing the assignment for the class. Sakura could feel the glares aimed at her and she merely shrugged it off. She knew as a new girl she was subject to these actions but yet felt no remorse over how her actions would lead her.
She had made her way to the cafeteria and was shoved into the wall. "Look at little miss fucking know it all!" Ino sneered as she stood in front of Sakura. "Bitch thinks she has a place amongst us just because she was allowed to enter this school." Ami laughed before she was cut off.
"Ino…..leave the girl alone. Don't you have hair spray to reapply to your already ridiculously styled slop you call a hairstyle?" Sasuke said smoothly, leaning against the lockers with one foot propped against the locker itself, arms tucked into one another.
"SASUKE!" Ino ran up to him and tugged on his hand, pouting when he shoved her away. "Why so coy Sasuke? You know you want to date me and be able to call all of this yours?" She said as she gestured to her own body. Sasuke scoffed before turning to Sakura.
"As if I would date an emaciated woman who is self-absorbed and conceited." He held a hand out and helped Sakura stand up before leaning down to grab her books and handing them to her. "Lets go, I feel like skipping today." He took her hand and walked out of the school with Sakura in tow.
"I'm…." She started but was cut off when he opened the door to his car, once she was in he shut the door and got in on the driver's side. He started the car and tossed his bag in the back before shifting the car into drive.
"You're Sakura, adopted by the Haruno family. I am well aware who you are. I'm Sasuke. Sasuke Uchiha" he said as he pulled in to the concealed driveway of his family's vacation cabin. He got out and made his way to her side before opening the door. Once she was out he walked with her to the door and unlocked the cabin.
Sakura watched as he shut and locked the door behind him and made his way into the living room to turn on lights. "Come sit. I Think it is time we talked Sakura" he said softly. Sasuke knew who she was, she was in fact the missing daughter of Orochimaru…..Sasuke's intended once they were old enough.
Sakura sat on the sofa and watched as he sat opposite of her, taking her hand he took a deep breath before beginning. "Sakura…your real father is Orochimaru of Sound Corp. He had an arrangement with my father Fugaku Uchiha that when we were old enough, we were to be married to each other. I knew from the moment I met you as a child there would never be anyone else for me"
Sakura gasped as she suddenly remembered a cute boy with black hair and obsidian eyes, pinky promises to forever remain friends, their first kiss before they decided at that age that kissing was disgusting, among other memories that surfaced.
"Sasu-Kun?" Sakura whispered, "YOU'RE SASU-KUN? Why did you never write back to me before I was sent away and adopted? Where is my real father now?" She said before Sasuke held a hand up to cut her rambling short.
"Sakura, I never wrote back because I didn't know where you were, my father said your family shifted homes every few weeks. As for Orochimaru, he was found murdered some time before you were adopted, hence why you have a new home and a new name. All I know is that he wanted you to inherit his corporation, not his son Mistuki."
Sakura smiled and lunged onto him before hugging him tight. "I missed you, I thought I would never see you again" she said, Sasuke held her tightly and whispered into her ear that everything would be fine now. Now that he finally found her, he would never let her go, any who dared try to take her from him, would pay a hefty price. "His fangs elongated at the thought of keeping her safe from anyone else.
