Blossoming Flowers

Chapter 1

Haruno Sakura was walking on the streets of Konoha. Sakura was very

sad. She couldn't stop thinking about Uchiha Sasuke. Sakura had had

a crush on Sasuke as long as she could remember. Sasuke and she had

been on the same cell. They had started to get closer before

Orochimaru

came and ruined everything. Orochimaru gave Sasuke the curse mark and

then all Sasuke wanted was power. After Sasuke's fight with Naruto,

Sasuke had left the village to go to Orochimaru.

Now all Sakura could think of was Sasuke. Sakura walked to her

apartment. Sakura hadn't been paying attention to her surroundings so

she didn't notice that someone was following her. As soon as she

opened the door to her apartment, Sakura noticed that someone had

followed her.

"Come out!" Sakura shouted out to the person. Sakura saw someone

move in the shadow of the wall.

"So you finally noticed me. I followed you all the way here and you

didn't notice me. I thought you would notice me right away but a few

seconds ago I was wondering if you would notice me at all."

The strange person stepped out of the shadow but Sakura knew who it was

just by voice.

"Why are you here, Kabuto?" Sakura said vehemently.

The purple clad ninja chuckled as he came out from the wall's shadow

and stood against the wall Sakura was standing by.

"I have a mission here," Kabuto simply said.

"If I may inquire, what is your mission?" Sakura asked him.

"That's classified."

"Please," Sakura asked with a puppy dog look on her face.

"Well, since it does have something to do with you I guess I can tell

you. Orochimaru wants me to bring you to him. He wants you to help me

heal his arms. I was ordered to bring you to him with force if

necessary. So will you come with me or, will I have to take you by

force?" Kabuto asked Sakura.

"I will go if I am able to see Sasuke."

"I am sure you will be able to." Kabuto said that but he was thinking, 'I doubt Sasuke will want to see you.'

"Are you coming, Sakura, or are you just going to stand there?"

"Fine. I will go with you." Sakura told Kabuto weakly. Sakura just didn't have the spirit to fight back. So Sakura went to her apartment and got what she thought she would need for her stay in Sound.

Kabuto and Sakura headed out for Sound.

'No one will know what happened and no one would know until several days later and by that time we will be in Sound.' Kabuto was thinking.

You probably hate me for cutting it off at such a crucial point. It's my job to leave you hanging so you will read more of my story.

Please review.

Give some ideas for pairings and I will see if they can be worked in somehow.
