Slave Sakura

Hello Everyone, I'm here to tell you the story of a once young girl named Sakura. She was but only eleven years old, and was the most beautiful girl of her age. Her short pink hair that shifted in the cool breeze, and her clover green eyes that stared up at the nearby apple tree, set her apart from the rest of the girls in the school yard. Her cherry red lips moved curiously as she stared at the apple tree, and the robin that sat hidden in the branches, singing its sweet songs. Everyone could see how beautiful she was, and knew that when she was older, she would also be a beautiful woman. But they did not know that they would not get to see Sakura grow up to be this beautiful woman they so deemed she would be. For something dark and cold would happen to her, and no one would know what it was that happened, until she was of old age, and finally told the story. But before I get too far, let us start from the beginning….

Chapter One: Apple Tree

Sakura stared at the apple tree longingly. The apples were big and ripe. They were the biggest apples on the apple tree then any others from the other apple trees in her village. She longed for one, because they seamed so delicious, and she could imagine just biting into one of these juicy apples. Her mouth watered at the thought. The robin she was once distracted by was now silent, as she took her gaze back to the apples. Then it started to sing its sweet music, and Sakura once again forgot about the apples and closed her eyes, listening to the gentle tune. She let out a long sigh. How beautiful it sounded, how she wished she could just lie down and sleep to the beautiful music the robin was making. But class would be starting soon, and she didn't want to risk falling asleep and not waking up. A small tap on Sakura's shoulder snapped her out of her thought of the apple tree and the music of the robin, and she turned to face Naruto. He was one of her friends at her school, along with Sasuke. He had golden hair that sparkled in the sun light and sky blue eyes that stared at her intently. He was only slightly taller then her. He liked her a lot, but that wasn't different from any of the other boys in the school. All the boys liked her, but the reason she kind of liked Naruto back, was because there was just something different about him. She couldn't quiet explain why, not even to herself, it was just something about him that made here heart throb silently. But, she kept it silent, not wanting to rush into anything to fast until everything was clear. But there was also another reason she didn't want to just rush into it with Naruto. You see, Sasuke, her other friend, she also liked. She knew why she liked him too, unlike Naruto, he didn't like her; he was different. He wasn't like all the other boys, drooling all over her and trying to gain her favor for his own wants. He didn't like her at all like that, he preferred her more like a friend. This intrigued Sakura, for this was new to her. Not once had she met a boy in her school that didn't like her. Meeting Sasuke and he not liking her sort of made her like him more. It was confusing to her, but that was how she felt. She had a serious problem with both of them; of course she could not be with them both. So that is when they all became friends, besides the occasional fight with Sasuke and Naruto, because she liked them both, and hoped if she was friends with them that soon she would find which her heart truly throbbed for, and which she would be better with. "Oh...Naruto, what is it?" She asked, almost in an irritated voice. She wish he hadn't of pulled her away from the wonderful music of the robin. "Class is about to start Sakura, come on." He said, ignoring her irritated tone. She nodded, thankful now that he had snapped her out of her thoughts, and followed him swiftly to class. When they reached the class, class had just started, and the teacher glared at them slightly, warning them that they were almost late, and that he would not accept them being late. They nodded to him almost apologetically, and took there seats next to Sasuke. Sasuke was just as tall as Naruto, both of them being slightly taller then Sakura. He had jet black hair and brown eyes that, when he used his sharigon which was a lost technique only people from his clan new, turned a bloodish red with strange black marks in them. The sharingon was a lost technique, because all the members of his clan were killed by his older brother. So him, and his older brother, were the only ones that knew this technique. He hated his older brother for what he had done to their clan with all of his body, soul, and mind, and swore he would kill him. Sasuke looked over at Sakura and whispered, as to not be heard by the teacher. "Sakura…let me guess… you were in a daze at that apple tree again weren't you?" Sakura let out a glare at him like a thousand daggers. "Maybe I was? It isn't a bad thing. It is beautiful, and the robins that lay in it make beautiful music. If you and Naruto took half your time to just stop messing around, and take in these beauties, you would know what I mean." Sasuke chuckled a little. "Yah, well, I have more important things to do then stare at a stupid apple tree." Naruto smiled and nodded in agreement. The teacher looked at Sasuke. "Sasuke! If you are going to talk, why don't you come up here and show us your shadow clone jutsu." Sasuke stood up with out hesitation, knowing he had this. "Yes sensei…" he said as he walked to the front of the class room. You see, this was a school for kids like Sasuke, Naruto, and Sakura, who wanted to become ninjas, and they practiced jutsu's and teqniques along with other regular school things. Sasuke was the brightest of the class, and the most talented when it came to jutsus and techniques. This he would be able to do easily. Sasuke stood in the middle of the class room and stared up at the rest of his classmates. He made short and quick hand signs with his hands, almost to fast to see, and when he made the last sign, he yelled out "SHADOW CLONE JUTSU!!" Smoke appeared next to him and wrapped up, when it dispersed, a complete and perfect copy of Sasuke stood next to him, in the exact same position he was in. The teacher stared at him, with no amazement, un-like the rest of the class, who stared at Sasuke with awe. He knew that Sasuke was capable of doing this, and doing it almost perfectly… "Alright Sasuke, you may take your seat." He said sternly, and went back to the board to continue his talk about jutsus and other techniques. Sasuke nodded a bit, and grinned at Naruto as he walked back, who showed jealousy on his face. Naruto was the class clown. He never could do any of the techniques or jutsus, no matter how hard he tried. Sasuke took his seat next to Naruto and Sakura. Sakura smiled to him, innocently. Sasuke looked to her, and smiled back. She wanted to congratulate him on his good work, but knew if she did; it would only increase Naruto's jealousy and envy, which would probably cause another fight between them after school….The day slowly passed by, and class went on. Soon, it was time to leave. Sakura, Naruto, and Sasuke, all ran out of the class room like a stampede, before anyone else could even stand. Of course, like Sakura had predicted would happen, a fight broke between Naruto and Sasuke as soon as they reached the outside. Sakura stared silently at them both, the wind brushing against her face. They yelled and fought for what seemed like hours, and Sakura could feel herself becoming bored of just watching them. She would have stopped the ridiculous fight if she knew it would have worked, but whenever she had tried to stop them before, all they did was blow her off, and continue their pointless squabble. Sakura let out a long sigh, and slowly walked to the apple tree she had been so enamored with before class had started. Reaching the tree, she gently put her hand on it, looking up threw the branches and apples of the tree, trying to find the beautiful robin that sang all day in the tree. But no robin was found, in fact, the tree seemed to be abandoned of any robins at all. This brought a red flag to Sakura. The tree was always full of robins and a few other types of birds, no matter what time of day it was. She gripped her hand a bit on the tree, feeling the roughness of the bark against her hand. As she looked back down, a dark man stood in front of her. He had appeared there without a single sound, almost as quiet as the soft wind. His eyes were dark and cold as they stared down at her, and he was completely covered from mouth, to ankle, with a long black jacket, with a strange red cloud design on it. His hair was long, and coal back, pulled back into a hair bow. Sakura went to let out a gasp of surprise, but the man quickly put a hand out and covered her mouth, so fast you might not have seen that he even had moved if you had blinked. She tried to scream, and she clawed at the man's hand, but he tightly gripped her mouth, and put his other arm around her small body, compared to his. He lifted her up roughly, and threw her over his shoulder. As the man turned, Sakura could see Naruto and Sasuke, who was still yelling and fighting with each other, completely oblivious to what was happening to her. They were only but a few feet away…..She tried to scream for them, but only muffles escaped from her covered mouth, and the man quickly vanished with her……A few moments later, a robin flew back into the apple tree, and gentle landed on a branch, singing its soft music…….
