A/N: Hey, this is Alanna of TPQ...new PM coming soon. This is my first Naruto fic, so I'm starting out small. This is Sakura-centric with a hint of SasuSaku. Hope you like it, please review!

She is so out of breath, she thinks her lungs will burst.

Her head hurts, her muscles are screaming and her mind is telling her to stop, stop and think this through.

But she won't. She can't.

After all, what will everyone think if Sakura Haruno, the Hokage's apprentice, the greatest konuichi of her age was unable to succeed? Unable to win?

She can't. She won't.

She will make herself undefeatable.

She will make herself so strong that it will block everything else out.

Naruto, Ino, Kakashi, even Tsunade…. They all are distracting her, keeping her from realizing her true potential.

Unstoppable.

That is what she will become.

A woman possessed, she hits the ground harder than she had previously, the ground shattering for close to mile in front of her. There are no trees in front of her, nothing to protect her from the harsh summer sun. She has ripped all of the foliage out and used them as distance markers, almost dislocating her shoulder.

She shrugs the pain off. It will be worth it in the end.

Because she will be strong, Naruto will be safe, and Sasuke will be back.

It does not cross her mind what will happen if she doesn't succeed.

A/N: I know konuichi is spelled incorrectly, I'm trying to fix it. If it's still wrong , could someone tell me the correct spelling?
