So I know i should be working on "What Is Love" but I have the worst writers block ever, even worse then the ones I get while writing my own book.
This idea kinda came to my mind the other day and I figured why the hell not? So hence here it is, the random story thats been rolling in my head for the past few days. I don't know how well this story is going to be written and the plot may be random as all hell but it has been pestering my brain.
This is a Naruto/ Death Note crossover.
Pairing: L- Sakura
Disclaimer:
I do not own naruto or death note all rights go to the respectful owners (as much as I wish it was mine!)
Finding Home
Sakura took a deep breath as she looked at the items strew across her bed. Her eyes were focused on one item in particular, a small plastic square. She picked it up and turned it over in her hands before pressing a button on the side to make the screen light up. A picture of herself and a black haired man shown on the front. She smiled think of the day she had received the phone and taken the picture.
"You will be traveling through a portal for an escort mission." Tsunade stated as she handed the scroll containing the details to sakura. She nodded and took the offered item.
"You will be leaving tomorrow afternoon and should get to the portal in the evening. Once you pass through your target will be waiting for you. You are to stay with him as long as he needs you there for protection. Any questions?" Tsunade asked as she laced her hands under her chin.
"Where does the portal lead to?" Sakura asked curiously. She had been through portals before but everyone one lead to a different place ot time.
"Tokyo, Japan. Anything else?" Sakura shook her head and was dismissed with a wave. Just as she was about to close the door tsunade called her name and she turned to face her shishou.
"Hai?" She said turning to her.
"Don't push yourself to hard and maybe have some fun while your there?" She said with concern. Sakura smiled and nodded before leaving.
That was when she was sent to protect L during one of his investigations. He was strange and looked like he had not slept in a decade but she liked him. He was intelligent, curious, and could be sweet and kind. She hoped someday she would be able to go back and visit him on her own terms and not a mission. She set the phone down when she heard a knock at her door.
"Forehead!" Ino shouted at her as soon as the door opened. Sakura smiled and stood back allowing the blond to pass.
"What are you doing here pig?" She asked walking with her to the living room.
"Did you forget already? Were all going to the bar tonight remember? I told you I was going to come over so we could get ready together." She said.
"Oh yea thats right! I forgot sorry. My heads been elsewhere today." She said scratching the back of her head in a kakashi fashion. Ino shook her head placed her hands on her hips and smiled.
"Well I'm glad I came you probably wouldn't have shown up if I hadn't! Enough lets start getting ready!" She said dragging the pink haired medic along to the bathroom.
Two hours later sakura sat at a table surrounded by her friends and a blue drink in front of her. She chatted with them for a while until they all broke off to dance together. She sighed as she sat and watched them all on the floor together and felt a pang of loneliness wash over. They all had a significant other. Ino had kiba, tenten had neji, naruto and hinata, hell even kakashi had met someone during one of his missions and was now dating her. She downed her drink and left unnoticed. Thought ran through her head a mile a minute. It's not like she hadn't tried finding someone but they all just turned out to be assholes. She knew she should be happy she was one of the top anbu's best medic apart from tsunade and even had an apprentice of her own. She should feel accomplished but she just couldn't help but feel slightly empty. She unlocked her door and dropped her things at the door before heading to her room. She flicked on her lights and looked at the items on her bed again. There were pictures from a mall photo booth, the cell phone, a necklace with the letter S that L had gotten for her and other various items from her three month stay in Tokyo a year prior. She picked up the photos and stared at them. They were of her, L and watari was even in a few of the photos. She smiled touched the picture when something wet fell on the back of her hand. She reached up and touched her face to feel the moisture coming from her eyes. She hadn't even realized she was crying. She stared at her wet fingers for a moment before a thought crossed her mind and her eyes widened for a split moment. She smiled and set the pictures back down before turning to her closet. She was tired of trying to be happy when she wasn't, tired of feeling isolated even among all her friends and family, and most of all she tired of missing him. She grabbed a pack from her closet and began running about throwing various items in among clothes and toiletries. She filled the bag and changed out of her usual ninja garb for a pair of jeans and black t-shirt she had gotten while away. She picked up the items on the bed and put everything into the pack except for the phone, which she shoved in her pocket. She grabbed a few pieces of paper jotting down notes for her friends and tsunade before walking towards the door. She took one last look around her home before turning with a smile. She ran to the hokage tower and silently scaled the wall to the main office. She kissed the envelop in her hand before setting it on the desk.
"I'm sorry everyone I love you but I need to do this for myself for once. Please forgive me." She said quietly before hopping out the window and across the rooftops out of the village.
I'm really doing this. This feeling... its amazing... L... ill see you soon...
"And in today's news..." A voice droned on from the TV screen in the background. He sat staring out the window not listening the news program. His dark eyes washed over the city not truly seeing anything. Turning his attention back to the try of sweets on the table on front of him his mind wandered to the current case he was working on and he absentmindedly ran a hand through his unruly black hair.
"It just doesn't make any sense..." He mumbled to himself. He wished he had someone who could help him make sense of the mess. Someone with enough intelligence to help him find some meaning behind the questions. Possibly a pink haired women that had unknowingly caught his attention all that time ago. In the time that she spent protecting him they had become friends and, even though he may never admit it out loud, had even caught his interest as she not only protected him but even helped him solve the mystery. But alas as soon as he was finished with his case she had to return to her home and he held his tongue as he watched her leave. It had been a year since he had last seen her and yet he found himself often wondering how she was doing, what her opinion would be on the current situation, if she remembered her time with him. He shook his head and popped a cookie into his mouth. Now was not the time to be musing over the past he had a murderer to catch and he need to give it his full focus. He looked to the TV and was watching for a few moments before his phone rang.
"Yes watari?" He asked through the speaker.
"You are receiving a phone call." The older man spoke.
"Who is it?" He asked, his voice even, not showing his curiosity.
"I cant say but I know that you should take the call, its important." Was the response.
Who could be calling with such urgency and watari wont even tell me who it is?
"Alright put it through." He sat forward in his seat slightly.
"Right away." There was a click and was followed by another ring signaling the outside call coming through. He hit the speaker button.
"Hello?" He asked. There was a moment of silence before a female voice came through.
"R-Ryuzaki?" The women asked tentivly. His eyes widened in surprise. He knew that voice anywhere.
"Sakura? Is that really you?" He asked as he leaned closer to the phone.
"It's really me." She said. He could hear the smile in her voice and he felt his heart flutter slightly at the sound.
"Are you in Tokyo?" He asked quickly.
"Yea I'm here." A small smile tugged at his lips at her reply.
She came back.
