Chapter 1: Prelogue

Dear Diary,

Sakura here, I know I haven't written in you lately but a lot has been going on in the past couple of months and I need someone to talk to that won't be so judgmental.

Well, Sasuke has come back, but he brought back Team Hebi along with him. He claimed he just came back to use Kohona to track Itachi. But he killed Itachi over 4 months ago. I think him and that red hair girl, Karin I think It was? Well I think they have something going on. Oh, I'm over him by the way, though nobody seems to believe me…

Anyways, that's not all that's been going on. Naruto and Kiba are fighting over Hinata. Neji looks ready to kill them both. Ino-pig and Choji are going out, they look cute together. Shikamaru and Temari are engaged, so are Neji and Tenten. Everyone is starting to get families, well except me.

These strange rumors have been going around lately. They say the great Mandara Uchiha is alive and in akatsuki. Jiarya-sama left the village to see if it's true. But when I first heard this rumor Inner me seemed to get really anxious…

Well who wouldn't? Mandara was rumored to be the strongest ninja to ever live! Of course I would be a little worried, sheesh.

We're ninjas we aren't suppose to be scared of a little rumor.

I DON'T GIVE A SHIT! IF I WANNA BE WORRIED THAT HE IS OUT TO FIND ME THEN I CAN GO AHEAD AND BE WORRIED!

Why would he want to find you?

…

Inner?

…

INNER?!? Fine be like that but I will find out, if he is out to find you then he is trying to find me too since we're the same person.

Anyways, I told you she was acting weird. Something is about to happen. And it's going to be BIG
