SakuDei—Complicated
Hello! Not done any writing for a while O_O Kinda weird... :S
Anywho! This is Sakura x Deidara as you must have worked out- or you wouldn't be here.
I don't know how many chapters this is going to have- I am feeling unpredicatable at the moment- what with exams and all taking up my writing time so please sit and wait patiently. That's if you are even reading this. Which you probably aren't. Leave me a comment if you did. Would make me pleased XD
And to the boring yet obvious stuff: I do not own Naruto or Naruto Shippuden...or for that matter ( I have just had the revelation!) I don't own any of the characters either. Tough luck for me. So all of the rights go towards the original Mangekyo ( Artist/Writer) of Naruto and Naruto Shippuden. Props for making such flexible characters good sir!
On a side note: If you have read the Harry Potter ones that I have uploaded and are waiting for a new chapter then you could be waiting a little while. I have it all planned out but I don't quite know how to start it! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated by myself. Happy reading!
Notes to aid:
~Shippuden Sakura ~ Assume that Deidara is a year older than Sakura~
*Nanagui- ferret like animal from the Naruto movie "The Legend Of The Stone Of Gelel"
** Sakura, Naruto and Shikamaru were asked to catch Nanagui as a lower ranked mission. Catching him seemed rather tricky though, as he didn't seem to like Naruto.
Nanagui also seems to attract to the "Bad guy which turns good in the end" type of person, which is important for later on, as you will see
# Pain- Okay so I've seen variations of the Akatsuki leaders name spelling. I use this version, you may know him as Pein or Nagato. Either way, it's the same
Pain/Pein/Nagato.
~~Deidara says un because the word 'un' is a Japanese supportive word to say after a sentence. It would kind of be like you saying 'that's right' after everything.
Chapter 1: A Warning
"Sakura, I have a new mission for you" Sakura Haruno looked up at her mentor and Hokage, Lady Tsunade.
"Really Milady?" Sakura enquired cautiously- she knew that look in Tsunade's eyes. She was up to something.
"Yes, really" Tsunade replied impatiently.
"What rank?"
"D Rank Mission" Tsunade replied slowly- not knowing what to expect. There was a momentary pause that lasted two heartbeats.
"ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I'M SO MUCH BETTER THAN THAT AND YOU KNOW IT, CHA!" Sakura yelled at Tsunade, angrier than ever before. "I'M NOT 14 ANYMORE I CAN TAK-"
"I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE CAPABLE OF SAKURA NOW KNOCK IT OFF...you are starting to sound like Naruto." Tsunade finished calmly.
Sakura instantly stopped yelling and forced herself to remain calm.
'It's only a D rank mission. Easy peasy! Then I can move onto the harder stuff...yeah...that's it. She's just starting me off simple again.'
Sakura sighed.
"What's this mission then Milady?" She asked.
"Well...do you remember that ferret like creature Nanagui that you were asked to capture a little while back?"*/**
Sakura groaned aloud. She remembered the little rat alright. Caused her, Shikamaru and Naruto a load of trouble and could evade capture quite well.
She allowed herself to smile a little, when she recalled how badly Nanagui had taken to Naruto, and scratched his face severely, which she and Shikamaru found quite amusing.
"Sakura! Snap out of it!" Tsunade's voice broke her train of thought. Sakura snapped to attention.
"Yes, I do recall that mission, what of it?" She asked, although she had a very accurate plan of what the mission actually was.
"Well he has ran away from the caravan again and they have paid for another mission to return this...Nanagui,ferret,rat whatever you want to call it.
But there is an important catch to the mission this time."
Sakura looked up in confusion. D-rank missions weren't meant to be complicated. They were meant to get up, go and complete and return.
Tsunade got up from her desk and turned to face the large window situated behind her desk.
"This mission isn't like the last time you recovered the animal. He was last seen just on the path heading in the direction of the Sand Village..."
Sakura was confused "But...that doesn't seem too bad..."
Tsunade turned around and banged her fists on the desk angrily.
"SAKURA! You are missing the point! If you'd let me finish...Rumour has it that the Akatsuki have been seen in that area, camping out so to speak."
Seeing the confusion on Sakura's face, Tsunade gave her more information.
"The Akatsuki is a band of well known criminals that have committed crimes far worth the death penalty. They should have been eradicated long ago, yet they continue to avoid detection and somehow manage to evade even the Anbu Black Ops' attacks. Even if they are camping out there, they will be gone before we can even get there. It's such a hard situation to be in Sakura, to have these...criminals so close to our village yet be able to do nothing about it."
Sakura was thoughtful for a short while. The birds flew past the window ledge and the sun shone through, illuminating the stress lines that had appeared on her mentors' face. No matter how youthful in appearance Tsunade was, Sakura knew her well enough by now to know that she was stressed by the situation. But she was curious...
"Who is in this Akatsuki then?"
Tsunade turned around and looked at Sakura cautiously. 'If I tell her too much, she will chase after the Akatsuki and cause a bother and deep down I know it. If I so much as MENTIONED that Sasuke's brother is in that band of criminals...well...We all know how that would turn out.' Sighing, Tsunade simply said:
"All you need to know is that they are very, VERY dangerous and not to be meddled with. If they spot you, forget the mission and return to the village and report to me immediately. And I mean it Sakura, don't try and deal with them on your own. Now go, I have other matters to attend to." She dismissed the pink haired girl with a wave and returned to her desk.
Sakura stood for a second then turned and walked towards the door, sliding it and walking past one of the mail clerks. 'How bad can this Akatsuki really be? Especially if Lady Tsunade can't eradicate them." Sakura shook the thought of the Akatsuki from her mind and focused on the mission at hand. Sakura groaned aloud and forced her feet forwards, in the direction of the gate to the Hidden Leaf.
