I love this idea actually and I really don't know if its going to be a sasusaku or a itasaku but i do believe that you will review and let me know right? Right. so here you go! First chapter of Oblivion!
The Confrontation of the Powerful Gang
On a cold crisp night, Sakura was getting ready to leave the always busy café. She could not wait to go home to her nice warm couch and finally start her book that she got for her birthday, which was months ago. "Shikamaru! I'm leaving! Don't hurt yourself again. I don't want another hysterical Ino calling saying that her best friend slipped and broke his arm or something." She called out to her boss as she walked back into the kitchen to hang her apron up.
Her pineapple head friend chuckled. "I will be fine, Sakura. Trust me. Go on, you deserve this break." Shikamaru took a sip from his water bottle. "You have been working nonstop the past few weeks. Go ahead and take the rest of the week off." All Sakura could do was smile softly at his words. "Thank you, Shika." She hugged him tightly. "If anyone needs to be thanking somebody it should be me thanking you, Sakura. You work too hard." He hugged her back.
"Now go. I don't want to see you for a week." He smirked. She rolled her eyes at him. "Yes, father." She knew that he meant well. She smiled to herself and went out in to the winter cold. The moon shined over the quiet town and the wind blew softly. Sakura brought her coat closer to her body.
As she walked down the street, she heard shouting from an ally. Being the curious person that she is, Sakura got closer to the ally.
"I don't care! You told someone about our motives to take out the Magistrate!" A slap was heard after the man's voice.
Sakura looked around the corner slightly. She was shocked at the sight. . There was a group of men surrounding a small boy. The small boy had blood all over his body and he was crying. Sakura felt sorry for this little boy, but she didn't want to get caught, so she stood there silently and watched.
"I-I am sorry. I was scared. I-"The little boy was cut off with a kick to the stomach. He let out a sound of pain. "Sorry doesn't cut it, Shin. Maybe you should have thought of that before you ratted on us." A man said from the shadows.
"Sasori, I had enough with this sniveling boy. Kill him." The man ordered one of his lackeys. A red headed man stepped up slowly. "Yes, sir." Sasori reached into his trench coat and pulled out a glock. "Any last words, Shin?" He pulled back the hammer and pointed the gun at the broken boy. Sakura was in plain view, but no one seemed to notice. She was horrified. After a few seconds in silence, Sasori spoke up, "Time's up." He pulled the trigger and killed the innocent little boy.
"NO!" Sakura screamed at them. Everyone turned around. 'Shit, Sakura what did you get yourself into this time.' She scolded herself. She was breathless from her little scream. "Get her. She has seen too much." She heard the man, assuming he is the leader, and then noticed that they have started towards her.
For a few seconds, Sakura was so scared she was frozen still, but once she registered what just happened, Sakura ran like a bat out of hell. She heard their pace speed up behind her from a walk to a full speed run after her. She didn't dare look back. She was too afraid to.
Sakura kept running until she saw the café. She knew she was out of shape because her lungs were burning like fire and her legs were shaking as she takes each step. Right before she opened the door, she looked back and saw that they were on her tail, so she yanked the door open and ran into the kitchen. Sakura slumped against the door of the kitchen and tried to catch her breath.
"Sakura? Are you okay?" A gruff voice spoke up. She looked up to see the cook, Chouji, standing there with a spatula in his hand. He wore his normal apron around his waist and his headband on his forehead.
"Gang….chase….kid….dead…" It was all she could muster out while gasping for air. Chouji gave her a concerned look. "I'll get Shikamaru." With that he walked out of the kitchen quickly to find their friend. While he was gone, Sakura got up and looked out of the small serving window. She saw that the gang wasn't there anymore. She let out a sigh of relief and ran to the sink and threw up her dinner contents. When she was done, she turned on the water to wash out the sink.
"Sakura?"
The pink hair woman turned around to see her best friend, Ino, standing in the door way. Once she saw Sakura in her shaken state, Ino walked over and grabbed her arm and dragged her into Shikamaru's office. "What the hell happened to you, Forehead? Who killed your cat?" Sakura knew that Ino was trying to calm her down, so all she could do was shake her head. "Can we wait till Shikamaru gets here? I don't want to repeat this."
Ino nodded. "Do you want something to drink?" The shaken girl nodded and just muttered "water." Her blond friend went over to the small fridge in the office, got a water bottle and handed it to her friend.
A few minutes later, Shikamaru walked in with a very concerned look. "Sakura, are you okay? Chouji said you came in breathless. What's going on?"
The girl in questioning took a deep breath. "Okay. When I left the café, I went my normal route back to my apartment. About half way there, I heard a scream from an ally, so I checked it out. When I looked around a corner, I saw a little boy, no older than eight and all bloody and battered, with a group of men surrounding him. They said something about the Magistrate. I really don't remember. Then someone from the shadows ordered a guy named Sasori to kill the boy. I was scared and horrified. I didn't know what to do, so I stepped out of my hiding spot. No one noticed me at all until I screamed when they shot that innocent little boy. Then they chased me here." A tear slipped off her face.
Ino hugged her friend. "I'll call the police. You are safe now Sakura." Shikamaru reassured her and patted her shoulder as he went to his desk. After a few minutes of comforting, Sakura calmed down and wiped her eyes with a tissue. "Thank you, Ino and Shikamaru. You guys are great friends."
Ino smiled softly. "It's what friends do."
Shikamaru nodded and hung up with the police station. "They are on their way. While we are waiting, I will get you something to eat." With that, he left the office.
About thirty minutes later, Sakura already ate the meal Shikamaru got her. A few minutes ago, the police had arrived and greeted her gently.
"Would you please tell me what happened?" One of them asked her. She nodded and repeated her story from earlier.
One of the police officers looked at her strangely. "Ma'am, did you know that you just encountered the world's most dangerous gang?"
Sakura shook her head. The police officer pulled out his cell phone. "What's going to happen to me, Officer Sai?" Sakura asked quietly. "I am calling in our best police team, which they happen to be Marshals for the witness protection program." He walked away and started talking animatedly.
"Witness protection program? I don't want to leave this place or you guys. I love it here." Sakura whined. "If it's for your protection, then I want you to go on with it. I don't want to find you dead." Ino hugged her tightly after she gave Sakura her opinion. "I agree with Ino, Sakura. I can't see you getting hurt."
"Thanks you guys." Sakura hugged both her friends. "When this is all over, I will come right back." She pulled away smiling softly at her friends. She couldn't imagine a world without them.
"Alright, we are in luck. They are on their way over. Just to forewarn you, they aren't the friendliest people in the squad, but they are trustworthy." Officer Sai said as he walked back into the office. He had a small smile on his face. "You will be safe, Haruno."
"So who are these two Marshals, Officer?" Ino questioned out of curiosity.
"Oh you'll see." He replied with a sly smile. Ino glared at him evilly. A few minutes later, you can her girls squealing in the dining area. "They're here." Officer Sai whispered and walked away. When the door opened, Sakura was shocked. Ino saw her shocked look.
"What's wrong, Sakura?" Sakura stared at the two men in front of her for a few seconds. Then she was able to speak.
"Sasuke? Itachi?"
