Kunoichi's Pain
Prologue
"What happened to us?" my voice whispered as a blade was brought to my throat. My hands shook by my side. I was not going to fight death. Right now, dieing seemed like a good idea. Everyday of life is basically living hell. When you know you're the source of the problem is the worst. So the only way out is through blood loss. To die is to live. In my case, yes, I wanted to die. But before I moved on to the other world I wanted my one question to be answered. This question has been clouding my mind forever now, and the only real person to answer it is the holder of the chokuto. Sasuke Uchiha was the only one who could dream of answering this question. It was what he had done to us is what happened, he severed friendships. Just for revenge. That may be the answer, but if he really cared for his comrades than why was a blade held to my throat.
I stared into the onyx eyes that seemed troubled. Almost as if he was thinking the question in his own mind, his grip tightened on the chokuto and he was about to slit my throat when a red headed kunoichi came from behind him.
"They're coming." She breathed.
Sasuke didn't answer and was once again going to kill me when two more shinobi appeared by him and dragged him away.
"There's no time." A bulky man whispered.
Sasuke just stared at me, I was paralyzed with the fact that I would live on. He seemed to be paralyzed by the fact that he wasn't able to kill me. I can feel the love. As Sasuke and his team disappeared behind the woods I slid down the rock that was behind me, and slumped on the ground.
I brought my hands to my head and pushed them through my hair, and then I placed them over my eyes. I cried, it wasn't silent either, it was very much loud. And as I cried many tears my teammates jumped in front of me. Naruto looked down on me with saddened eyes, he knew better than to call out to me. Sai on the other hand looked troubled. He was probably furious that Sasuke did this to me. Even though Sai was made not to feel feelings, Naruto and I have helped him understand how someone reacts to certain situations. He has learned all types of empathy.
I stopped crying abruptly and stood up. The life that once resided in my emerald eyes vanished. Naruto looked at me and flinched and Sai looked saddened.
The tears that were on my face were merely dry streaks, and were lost upon everything. Emotion was needed for tears to fall, and well I don't have emotion anymore, I'm just a soul. A soul in a body that only lives to serve its village.
L.O.V.E.
Blood splattered everywhere as Sakura the ANBU slit another person's throat. That was her way of killing, a quick death to the throat. I wonder why she has always done this…. Only Sakura and Sasuke know that Sasuke would've killed Sakura by the throat and of course his teammates know as well.
Sakura's friends have no idea why she came a walking zombie. She never talked to them. She simply took missions and carried them out. Sakura only talked when necessary. The kunoichi is an ANBU captain but the Hokage found out soon enough that a team is no good for Sakura. She works the best alone, so she is by herself everyday. If you ever wanted a mission to be carried out within a certain time frame. Call down Haruno Sakura, because she is the one for the job.
Sakura sheathed the katana and walked out of the building she was in. Blood stained her clothes, her mask, everything.
"An ANBU, huh?" a voice called from the tree branches. Sakura paid no heed to the mystery person. She was sent to kill one person, and she would not kill anyone else.
"Maybe the ANBU is death." A female voice snickered. A kunai was sent Sakura's way and she caught it with her left hand.
Three figures then jumped in front of Sakura. Her grip tightened on the kunai as she realized these were Sasuke's teammates. It has been four years since that incident, and now Sakura was twenty years old. But she could still spot that pale sickly looking skin, the red blazing hair, and the bulky people anywhere.
That wasn't the only way she recognized them though, they were also in bingo books. Sakura had learned soon after the encounter with Sasuke that he had joined Akatsuki. Seeing as he found out the truth about his brother, and now seeked revenge against Konoha.
Sakura narrowed her eyes as water was sent her way. She simply kicked the ground with her foot and brought it up with the chakra, she created a shield for herself. As the water stopped shooting at her she released the ground. It fell limply back into place. Through all of this she didn't make a sound.
"She could possibly be mute." The big man murmured.
Sakura glanced at the man and threw numerous weapons at him and the other two. The big man narrowed his eyes and sent them flying back at her with some type of wind that came out of his hands. As the weapons made a lot of noise from being thrown at the ground Sakura sensed an all too familiar chakra signature coming towards them.
"What's all this commotion about?" Sasuke glared at the red head. As if she was to keep the team in order.
"An ANBU." The pale man muttered.
Sasuke turned around and looked at Sakura. He couldn't see her face because of the mask that covered her face. The mask was no type of animal. It was totally black, with white swirls all over, and it covered her whole entire face, only small slits were there for her to be able to see.
"So kill her." Sasuke hissed.
"We tried." The red head told him.
"Hn." Sasuke glared at the ANBU before him. He took out a shuriken and aimed for her forehead, she was able to catch it right before it punctured her mask. But she was a nanosecond too late. A crack formed and evolved, it ended up breaking the whole mask and the pieces fell to the ground.
There stood emerald colored eyes, with pink hair. Sasuke's jaw tightened as he recognized the ANBU as Sakura. He searched through her eyes and found nothing. No sadness, no fear, no anger, nothing.
The pale man gasped. "It's the pink haired bitch!" he exclaimed.
"I have no business here." Sakura said in a monotone voice. She turned around and was going to leave when she found Sasuke in her path. "If you say I'm in your way, I'll only say back to you that you are the one blocking me from leaving. Like I said, I have no business here; therefore get out of my way." Sakura continued.
"Sakura. You think I'm going to let you leave, after seeing where four Akatsuki members are?" Sasuke raised an eyebrow. "I'm going to kill you like I should've four years ago." Sasuke announced. "Don't worry though; it will be a quick slit to the throat." He assured evilly.
Sakura tried to side step Sasuke. It was as if she didn't just hear Sasuke say what he did. "Any information out of my mission shall not be spoken. My mission ended, so why are you pestering me?" Sakura questioned.
Sasuke rolled his eyes. "As if the biggest gossiper in Konoha would keep information about Akatsuki from the Hokage. No need to make pledges Sakura." He accused.
"Ah." Sakura's voice was cold. "As if you know me Uchiha." She hissed.
"Hn." Sasuke merely said as he unsheathed his Kusanagi.
Sakura reached to her waist and pulled out her own chokuto. The two metal weapons made a sick scratching noise as the clashed together.
"It won't be that easy." Sakura voiced.
Sasuke pushed his sword downwards, in an attempt to overpower Sakura's. As his move failed he charged it with Raikiri. To his great surprise Sakura had a spasm but stayed glued to the spot. The electricity shot through her and all she did was pull out the katana that was attached to her back. She aimed it at Sasuke's head and he had to dodge it. He jumped into the trees, and Sakura sprinted away. She was running from unwanted memories, and the shock that ran through her body was damaging her organs. Yes she could easily heal it, but right now she had to get away.
As she ran she felt Sasuke following her from the tree tops. It seemed as though his teammates were told to stay put. Seeing as though only Sasuke was after her. But Sakura soon realized that Sasuke was killing her because she stumbled across the Akatsuki base. Because now she felt two of the Uchiha's presence.
She figured that they remade the groups. So the brothers would be on the same two man team. The kunoichi inwardly cursed as she knew she was in trouble.
Two kunais were aimed at her shoulders, but she lifted two katana's slightly from her back and blocked them. She jumped into the air as metal wires wrapped around a tree and a line of fire aimed directly at her. Her hand caught onto a branch and she swung her self up as more fire was blown at her. Sakura landed in a crouching position on the branch. The two Uchiha's on either side of her. As they bother were about to cut into her sides, she pulled out the katana's from her back and blocked their weapons. Both men increased their pressure and Sakura gritted her teeth as she pushed them away from her.
Once again she jumped into the air and did a somersault. Sakura landed on a branch not too far from where Sasuke and Itachi resided. She began to form numerous hand seals and before anyone could blink a flurry of cherry blossoms flew at the Uchiha's. But they weren't soft and silky; they were spiky and deadly dangerous.
As Sakura released the jutsu she had a spasm attack. And you could see the Raikiri ripple over her body. She fell to her knees and coughed up blood. It has traveled to my lungs. She thought as she rasped for breath. Sasuke and Itachi appeared by both of her sides.
The collar of the Akatsuki cloak covered Itachi's facial expression, while Sasuke's showed his whole face. He had a look of anticipation. Sasuke had waited four years to finish it off, and now he was able to.
Sasuke grabbed Sakura's hair and lifted her head up, now he had full access to her neck. He brought his Kusanagi to her neck and watched as Sakura smiled.
The young prodigy was confused by this notion. Why would she smile when she knew she was going to die?
"It's finally over." She breathed out. "I always knew you would be my destruction Sasuke." She laughed. "Thank you." She whispered before closing he eyes and waiting for death. But it never came. She felt her hair being let go of and Sasuke stepping back from her, she opened her eyes and watched as Sasuke's face twisted in agony.
She stood up and tilted her head to the side. "Why not end it?" she asked and took a step towards Sasuke. He took a step back.
"You basically asked me kill you. Are you suicidal?" he questioned and scowled at her.
Sakura laughed menacingly. "No not suicidal, just lets say useless. The world doesn't need me, so I've been waiting for death. Death from you." She smirked.
Raikiri rippled over her again and her foot moved involuntarily. Itachi watched this with interest. "The Raikiri is in you." He stated.
"Bingo." Sakura looked down at herself. "My fault for not backing down I guess." She shrugged. She then looked back at Sasuke. "If you're not going to kill me…then I'll do it myself." Sakura hissed. She pulled out her chokuto, and was about to stab her self, but Sasuke knocked the weapon out of her hands.
"I'm not going to let you kill yourself Sakura." He muttered.
"Why the hell not?" Sakura raged. "Just a moment ago you were more than glad to be able to kill me." She stated. "Why not now?" she asked.
"Because. I thought you valued life. So to destroy you was to take your life. But now you want to die, it makes no sense to kill you." He explained.
"Whatever." Sakura murmured. She made some hand seals and a purple chakra engulfed her. "Good bye Sasuke." She whispered before releasing her hands and then her eyes rolled behind her head and it seemed as though she had died.
G.O.N.E.
I knew it wouldn't work. Of course that jutsu wouldn't fool Sasuke or Itachi for that matter. But if they weren't going to kill me, then the only option left was to abduct me. So I had to keep away from their grasps. If I set up the illusion of being suicidal and not caring for life they would actually think I killed myself. But of course being genjutsu users and all they saw right through my act.
I kept my breathing even, as if I were still sleeping; I knew it was Sasuke holding me. Carrying me to who knows where. With one swift movement the heel on my ANBU outfit hit his back. My eyes snapped open as I flew in the air. I reached a hand out and shot metal wires to a branch. (You know like in the chunin exams when Sasuke swings on wires.) I used that as leverage to set myself safely on a tree branch.
I felt six pairs of eyes glaring at me. Three groups…Itachi and Sasuke, Kisame and Suigetsu, and Karin and Jugo.
"Ah." I muttered. "This is hardly fair." I narrowed my eyes. "Can like at least three of you sit out?" I asked sarcastically.
"Hn." Sasuke muttered. He unsheathed the Kusanagi.
"I thought you didn't want to kill me Sasuke-kun." I icily mimicked my old self.
Sasuke didn't respond as he flew at me, I took out my chokuto and blocked the Kusanagi. Raikiri once again ripple over my body and caused me to lose my grip. My chokuto fell from my hands and the Kusanagi fell down and cut into my shoulder. I dodged by ducking as he swung at me again, then I jumped to a different tree branch.
One of my hands gripped my shoulder and pushed green chakra into it. I wouldn't be able to heal the damage Raikiri is doing; neither will I be able to chase it out. Since I should save my chakra to heal the injuries that will keep me from defending myself. I guess if I fully run out of chakra I could use that.
Another wave of Raikiri washed over me, and it sparked on my skin. My foot moved to the side enough for it to fall off the tree branch I was on. I fell with it and my hand barely made it to grip the branch in time. As soon as I got a good grip the Raikiri messed with my muscles again and I began to fall to the ground.
With an idea at the top of my head I pulled out one of my katana's and plunged it into the tree trunk that was beside me while I was falling. Then I pulled it out and gracefully fell to the ground. As I was on the ground Akatsuki was surrounding me. Well most of them anyway.
"I guess this is it…" I panted while knowing that they knew that I did value life. Why would I fight so hard if I didn't? Why would I set everything up…so I could escape?
Sasuke threw my own chokuto at my stomach, and I watched as it pierced my skin. It seems as though I will be dieing another way, instead of a quick slit to the throat. Now it will be painful and might take a while.
The force from the throw sent me into the tree behind me and the chokuto kept me pierced into the tree trunk. I felt my warm blood flood over my body and I began to lose conscious.
"I told you. My destruction…Sasuke." I whispered before everything went black.
F.O.R.E.V.E.R.
The Akatsuki listened to the kunoichi's last words and turned towards Sasuke. He seemed to be troubled. "You're wrong Sakura. You were your own destruction." He muttered.
Itachi looked at the dead kunoichi and his eyes narrowed. What had his brother meant by she was her own destruction? Wasn't it he who had killed her? Destroyed her heart some years ago? Demolished her until it was too hard to bear…too much to cry for that you don't even cry anymore. How is that all of her fault?
When the older Uchiha looked back at his brother, he was gone, and the rest of Akatsuki were following him to the base. Itachi followed after them, not letting the kunoichi cloud his mind anymore. It doesn't matter anyway, she's dead.
D.E.S.T.R.U.C.T.I.O.N.
"My own destruction, huh? I don't quite get that but whatever." Sakura pulled out the chokuto in her stomach as her Genesis of Rebirth healed the hole in her stomach. She sheathed her sword, with her blood still present on it.
"Seems as though I haven't destroyed myself just yet." Sakura smirked as she headed home.
