"I won't cry. I'm not weak any more. I'm not pathetic any more. I will make a difference, and no one can stop me. Not even you Uchiha."
I looked into his blood red eyes, expecting to be taken into the depths of the hell everyone calls Mangekyo Sharingan, but to my surprise he looked away. I couldn't tell what he was doing, but my god if he was grinning, showing any emotion towards me, i would kill him. I'm Sakura Haruno, and i am no longer the useless burden i used to be.
"You could be a great inspiration to many. But i won't allow you to live long enough to even tell this story."
Wow, record breaker Sakura, i don't think Itachi has spoken that many words since...ever!
I glared at him. Heck, this glare would be good enough to rival his own. I would not back down. I have defeated Sasori of the sand, surpassed a legendary sannin and i am about to revenge the Uchiha Clan, and Sasuke. He left in a pitiful attempt to gain enough power to defeat his brother. Too bad i am about to do it for him. His pain, it will be in vain. I will make Sasuke hate me so much. I want Sasuke to feel the pain i did when he left.
"Itachi, not being rude, but i will be a great inspiration to many? I already am an inspiration to many. This is just going to add to my list of why i should be an inspiration."
I couldn't help but grin at his face. It's like, Sasuke when you piss him off really badly and then you laugh in his face. He just looks so angry its... funny.
"Prepare to die Haruno."
And he's off, throwing kunai to start off with. Which, might i add, i easily dodged. The fight lasted a little longer, with him throwing kunai and fireballs at me, and me attacking back. Not very interesting. It would of lasted a lot longer if a certain blond haired idiot didn't show up. He came in screaming my name, as if i was already dead. I mean come on, i was only bleeding a little. On my arm mainly. But Itachi was bleeding too, and likewise, in a great deal of pain.
"Sakura! Your hurt! Dammit Itachi, I'll kill you! BELIEVE IT!"
Whoa, after getting thrown to the side by a huge blast, which might i add came from Naruto, he put up a really good fight. I never knew Naruto had it in him. Itachi was getting thrown everywhere, so was Naruto, but Itachi was getting weaker and weaker by the minute. You could tell. It wasn't long before me and Naruto both noticed that we were fighting a bunch of fakes. Dammit, i have to train harder. That way we won't waste most of our time and energy on a bunch of copies.
"Come on Naruto, let's find the others and head out. We'll get him another day."
I wouldn't say it out loud, but i was so tired! We had been fighting nearly all night! The original mission was to travel to Wind country and deliver a scroll containing rare medical jutsu
(which i already memorised) and return with a secret scroll containing information that even i didn't know.
"Sakura, Itachi seemed weaker than before. What did you do to him?"
Naruto PoV
"Sakura, Itachi seemed weaker than before. What did you do to him?"
There, i said it! I have been asking myself that question to myself all day, now i have said it , it's done.
When i was fighting Itachi, it felt like i was moving faster, like i had the upper hand, Now, whether i have become a lot stronger in the past month, or Itachi was weakened, a lot. I looked towards Sakura to find her with her finger on her chin, staring into space. What was she thinking about? She only had to tell me basically what happened before i came. That's all.
"I just attacked him. Well, he started it. I think i got him a little mad, and i don't think he was expecting me to be as strong as i am. He underestimated me! And i kicked his ass!"
She shock me out of my train of thoughts with that brief description of her and Itachi's fight. I guess i ruined her fun, but i couldn't help it. I saw her just standing there, clutching a wound on her arm. She looked tired, but i wouldn't blame her, we had been fighting all night. I think Sakura got over confident. Scratch that, she is over confident. But i guess that's what gives her her courage.
"Whatever you did Sakura, you did it well."
Ah, my last words before i drift into my light slumber. Hey, I'm tired as much as the next guy. I need my sleep.
Sakura PoV
Awww, that was sweet of Naruto. I guess i should be mean to him, I'll admit, i was injured in that fight. And i was tired, and mouthy. But, i had my brother there to help me. I love saying that. Naruto has (finally) gotten over his crush for me and asked Hinata out! He admitted to me that he now thinks of me as more of a sister than a girlfriend. Which, again is sweet.
My heart, although i say i hate the guy, i guess it still belongs to Sasuke. I haven't gotten over him, i don't think i ever will. Ino has Shikamaru. He asked her out last Christmas. They were on a mission on Christmas day, and Ino was upset that she didn't get to spend the day with her family. So Shikamaru apparently said 'How about spending the day with me. I'll be you special someone if you'll be mine'. Cheesy much. But it's a cute story to tell any gran-kids.
Whoa, with all this babbling going on in my head, i hadn't realised that Naruto had already gone to his and Hinata's tent. I guess i should get some shut eye as well. It's a long way until we reach Konoha tomorrow. Well, about a day's walking distance. That's without any more interruptions.
I'm so lucky! I get my own tent all to myself! It's huge. HA! One great advantage of being head medic. Now, for my well needed sleep.
I know this is short! And don't worry, hopefully the next chapter will be longer.
I will be posting it, possible tonight as i have already started writing it!
Ok please NO FLAMING... they make me cry... no seriously they do. My friends say's this story is crap
i'll break down there and then.
