Sakura sprinted through the Konoha forest, she couldn't let them get away!
When she'd been bathing in the springs she'd been spotted by a ninja from the leaf and before she could stop him, he'd disappeared.
Panic chased up her spine, If he reported her then she'd have ninja crawling all through the forest searching for her.
Pouring more speed at the thought, Sakura whispered to the forest to stop him.
The trees groaned and swished in reply, Sakura nearly smiled,
He wasn't going to get away!
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Coming out of the trees to step into a small clearing, Sakura saw the ninja tangled in vines and tree limbs.
Moving closer, she caught a good look of his face.
Wow! He's pretty hot drools, SHUT UP! Inner -- he is the enemy.
Using her fathers sword, Sakura lifted his face and stared hard at him.
"What is the name of the boy who dares to intrude in my home?", he said nothing only scanned the tree's.
A tingle shot up Sakura's spine and she turned just in time to block several shuriken that were aimed at her back.
Back flipping, She avoided a barrage of kunai's dipped in poison. Without a thought, the forest around her reacted to her distress.
Tree limbs moved to guard her back and vines grabbed her around the stomach to throw her into the air and land her on a tree branch high off the ground.
Many forms of people moved through the tree's before stepping out into the clearing.
Her eyes widened in comprehension and she almost growled, "So Konoha has finally discovered whose been raiding there caravans and yet they send such well trained scouts", she scorned and nodded in the imprisoned mans direction.
Sakura looked at the man that seemed to be in charge from the way he was standing and her fists clenched.
Looking down on them from her high perch, Sakura could clearly tell who they all were
Might Gai, taijutsu master, Sarutobi Asuma son of the 3rd, Yuhi Kurenai accomplished female warrior and… Kakashi Hatake.
"Murderer", she hissed and jumped down from the trees to stand before them. She nearly laughed when they all braced themselves and moved their hands to there weapon pouches.
She walked forward so see was clearly seen with the sunlight peeking through the tree's.
(This is after Sasuke came back so everyone is slightly older)
"First mistake", Sakura said and grabbed the hilt of her sword, "You sent a mere chuunin after me". "Second mistake, you sent a man that I have been looking for, for years straight to me…and last you tried to fight me in my own element".
She tisked lightly, "And I was told that Konoha shinobi were so much stronger with my aunts ruling them…obviously someone was misinformed" and with that she charged.
Slashing, Swinging and throwing chakra enhanced fists, Sakura fought with almost everything she had but refused to bring out her full kekkia genkia. They blocked tirelessly and fought with a precision that bellied her previous statement. But still Sakura refused to go down.
They were to evenly matched….but she got in one lucky shot when the Sharingan User blocked an attack for Might Gai.
Finally, She thought and swung her fathers sword down…Only to be stopped by a chakra enhanced fist so like her own.
Sakura shot back twenty feet and was caught by some stray vines
"Enough Sakura!", bellowed a strong voice and she looked up to see her Aunt, Tsunade.
Pushing her feet against the tree, She pushed chakra into her feet and launched off the trunk to land back in her previous spot before shoving her sword back into its sheath.
"You of all people harbored a murderer in your mists!", Sakura slashed her hand in the direction of Kakashi. "Not only a murderer but a killer of your very own family", her voice had gone calm then as if her anger was cold and that just seemed more dangerous.
Tsunade looked at her niece and saw the same impotent rage and sadness that she herself had had when Dan died. But she couldn't help feeling guilty for the pain she was causing her niece but her duties as Ruler trumped that of an Aunt.
She took a step towards Sakura but halted when she saw the willow tree behind her rustle and its vines move to curl around Sakura.
She straightened her back and said what she knew would make her niece wish she were dead. But she had no other choice.
"Sakura Momochi, Demoness of the mist and guardian of the Forest, you are hereby under the Rule of Konoha Village Hidden in the Leaves and are to accompany us back to the city to figure a proper punishment for your crimes against the Fire Country", Tsunade's voce boomed over the forest and carried a layer of regret that was overshadowed by determination.
Sakura's eyes widened and she nearly dropped to her knee's, She was being taken from her home AGAIN! Away from the forest and the water, from the creatures she took care of to be placed in a city of STONE surrounded by PEOPLE!
Such a fate would kill her, apparently Tsunade saw her panic because she spoke again.
"You will be allowed access to the forest to complete your duties as Guardian and will be accompanied every time, But if you run I will ordered the forest burned Sakura, Do you understand?".
It pained Tsunade to use such a threat but she was willing to use anything to keep her niece with her. Her only family that she had left.
Something akin to hatred shone in Sakura's eyes as she looked at her Aunt, She knew just how to trap her… the traitor.
She bowed rigidly at the waist, "As you wish Lady Hokage" which sounded more like "Filthy traitor".
With a nod, Tsunade disappeared in a burst of smoke.
She began to walk towards Konoha City stiffly, to her prison.
A gloved hand reached out to touch her arm, Sakura whipped out a dagger and held it at there throat, "Don't you dare to presume you can lay a hand on me murderer", she hissed.
He didn't seem fazed except for a slight sadness in his visible eye and that just pissed her off more, How dare he think to pity me!
"Release Sasuke from the tree", Kakashi said but added "Please" deciding not to push someone who had just had there entire world yanked away from them.
Sakura glared at him harshly before stalking over to the man still entangled in the foliage.
She stood before him scowling and reached down to grab his chin, when he tried to jerk away she held tighter.
"Do not move if you want your body intact when you come out of that prison, What seems like a mere restraint to you, is really a cage loaded with poison needles ready to enter your body at a flick of my wrist. Since I've never put someone in this that I intended to let live so this will be slightly painful". She watched his eyes widen and almost laughed, he truly seemed shocked that she had intended to kill him.
Sakura leaned down towards his ear, "Do you honestly think I would let an Uchiha, fire users who have no qualms in burning my forest with there damned training, live especially after he was caught being a peeping tom".
He shivered lightly under her touch and when she knelt down level with his face, her eyes began to glow ethereally.
Slowly the vines began to recede some cutting into his skin, but he didn't even feel it to enthralled with the woman before him.
Her hands held his face and he could clearly see down her shirt and caught a glimpse of her cleavage.
Damn she was hot…and strong.
He wondered how long it would be before she started to fall all over him. (arrogant ass but he's like that though it shall change later so fear not XD)
Sasuke was pulled from his musing rather harshly when he dropped to the ground, glaring he looked up at Sakura and nearly growled.
She sneered at him and stalked back towards the group waiting, leaving him to stare after her….for a while anyway.
Before Sakura could blink, the Uchiha was next to her keeping pace with her angry steps. She just rolled her eyes and continued on, ignoring him completely.
Kakashi was on her other side and she moved away from them to walk by herself, growling lowly at there intrusion in her space.
Sasuke looked over at Kakashi and asked the question that had been burning his tongue since the beginning.
"Why does she call you a murderer?", Kakashi looked at his ex-student now equal, "Do you remember when Tsunade spoke to Sakura?", when he nodded he continued. "Sakura's last name is Momochi, her father was…Zabuza".
Sasuke's head whipped back towards the girl walking ahead of all them, "How is that possible?", Kakashi shrugged. "The bingo book obviously missed some facts or Zabuza went through a lot of trouble to keep her hidden".
Gai finally spoke, "She needs youth in her life!", Kurenai hit him in the back of the head and shook her head. "Gai we know nothing about this girl, you are not inclined to tell her what she needs so I suggest you keep you speeches to yourself".
Asuma seemed deep in thought but finally spoke, "She's Tsunade's niece which means her father was related to Tsunade which we all know is not true. So it must be her mother but her sister was…Rin".
Kakashi's eyes moved back towards to young woman walking ahead of them and wished he could go to her. Beg her to know where Rin was and if she was okay.
He stayed were he was and didn't say a word.

When they arrived in Konoha Sakura could see the Hokage Tower from the front gates and almost winced.
This is to be my 'home'
Nia growled in displeasure when she stepped on the cobblestones of the city roadways.
When Nia had first appeared the idiot shinobi had tried to kill her, before sakura explained that Nia was an extension of the forest and appeared whenever she stepped out of the land that she guarded, then they backed off.
That and Sakura had threatened to internally suffocate them if they so much as touched her.
Asuma, Gai and Kurenai left to attend to their other duties so now Sakura was left with the Cockatoo and left eye.
She snickered slightly at the new names for the two men.
People stared and whispered behind there hands when they saw Sakura, speculating on who she could be.
Nia growled at the townspeople and nudged closer to sakura in comfort.
Cooing, she ran her hands through her fur to calm her down, these pathetic gossipers had a lot coming to them if they thought that Sakura cared what they thought of her.
When a particularly rude comment that sounded suspiciously like, "She's probably just a new whore for Sasuke-kun to play with" came out of a bleach blonde tramps mouth (not ino), Sakura turned around and bared sharpened canines at her before knocking her on her ass with one hand gesture (the vine came out and tripped her).
Nia pounced on her and growled harshly, making the girl scream and beg for help.
Sakura gave three short howls and Nia disappeared off the slut to appear next to her side. People came running but when they saw nothing but a girl on the ground they cursed her and got back to work, telling her to stop begging for attention.
Sakura laughed at the girls shocked face and flipped her off before walking inside the building with Kakashi and Sasuke right behind her.
" You know that will probably come back to haunt you?", Kakashi said in his lazy voice.
Sakura laughed, "Hmmpt! Yeah right, whats she going to do, choke me with her makeup or blind me with her slutty clothes?".
Sasuke watched her from the corner of his eyes, She doesn't take any crap from anyone hmmm.
When they reached the doors to the Hokage's chambers, they pushed them open and waited for Sakura to pass.
"Are you afraid I'd bury a kunai in your back if you gave me the chance?", she asked with a sugar sweet smile before walking in.
There were already two other men there that Tsunade was talking to.
"Do you understand then?", when they nodded Tsunade turned towards them.
Sakura just curled her lip up in a sneer and glared, "HEY! Don't look at Granny that way, Believe it!", a loud voice shouted before a mass of orange and black appeared before her.
Nia's hackles rose and she began to gnash her teeth, Sakura looked at him with a raised brow, "What would you do Fox? Rasengan me to death?".
At his shocked face she laughed lowly, "Don't think that while you were chasing down your 'brother' you weren't watched. Anyone who enters my forest is closely observed, don't think you're the only one with something inside you Kyuubi".
Naruto looked shocked for a minute before looking over her and speaking, "So you're the Guardian that Kyuubi rambles about all the time, he seems to think that you and him have a 'history' together", Naruto wiggled his eyebrows in a perverse manner that Jiriyia taught him.
Sakura giggled lightly, "No, Kyuubi had a relationship with Kiono, I have the guardian Kioko in me, you better tell him that he needs to remember that Kiono is the ocean not the forest, she'll get insulted otherwise".
Naruto laughed heartily and stuck out his hand, "Naruto", Sakura did the same, "Sakura". when there hands touched they both felt an instant bond that tied them to each other like twins.
Sasuke stood, leaning against the far wall and watched the exchange with jealousy in his eyes and pain for his 'brother' on his mind.
Sakura swiveled her head to look at the black haired men that looked similar to Sasuke.
She eyed his hands and recognized his ability. "Do you like paints or pastels more?", at the question he seemed slightly confused on how to react.
After a moment of contemplation he responded, "paints and charcoals". Sakura nodded her head, "me too, but I can never seem to make the charcoal do what I want it to, do you think you could help me sometime?".
When he nodded, she did the unthinkable.
She hugged him and kissed his cheek.
When he stood there in shock sakura giggled, "you look like you needed it".
Sasuke practically seethed in anger and his sharingan flickered on and off.
A loud 'Ahem' turned Sakura's head to her Aunt and she glared again.
"This will be your new team Sakura, you will train and take missions with them. You shall live with one of the members. This is your punishment for raiding those caravans and you will make a formal apology to the Kazekage.
Her fists clenched, "That's bullshit! you know as well as I do that I didn't hurt those merchants I merely took what I needed to survive.
Nothing more, nothing less!"
Tsunade silenced her with a wave of her hand, "Regardless, you stole from Konoha and Suna, this is punishable by flogging or execution but leniency has been given by me and the Kazekage just wishes to see who was strong enough to outsmart his ninja."
Sakura tried not to be slightly intrigued by that, "I don't care if he's ruler of the whole frickin fire country, I bow to no one!"
A new voice intruded, "There will be no need for bowing, just mutual respect and an 'explanation' if you will…Sakura".
Sakura stiffened at the familiar voice before schooling her features and turning towards the man she used to know.
"Gaara, I didn't know you became Kazekage, did you finally kill your father then?", her voice had a bite of sarcasm.
His eyes narrowed slightly at her tone but he showed no other reaction, "No actually, Orochimaru took care of that for me but I would be enlightened to know where you've been these last few years".
"humph, I hardly think my apology", her tongue barely formed the words, "includes a play by play of my life history hmm?".
Gaara pushed himself off the wall and walked towards her, ignoring everyone else in the room, "Oh but I think it does Sakura after all we had such interesting time together", he put deliberate emphasis on 'interesting' and she wrinkled her nose.
If he thought he could embarrass her into talking to him he was in for a surprise.
"No Gaara, what he had was good sex and some laughs", his eyes widened slightly and she could tell he was hurt by her words.
Knowing this would end badly if they continued in front of everyone, she grabbed his arm and led him out of the room.
"Sakura why did you leave Suna without telling me?!', his voice sounded so hurt and she remembered everything that had ever happened to him.
She cupped his face in her hands "Gaara, you and I we- what we had wasn't love and you don't want to admit it but we both know its true. We had great sex and were friends but that was it besides your meant to marry of higher station and im…I'm just a forest warrior who lives among the nature, not a high class lady who could be an ornament on someone's arm." she sighed, "I love you Gaara, as a friend that at one time saved me from loneliness and heartache by being my lover. But friend is all we were to each other", her voice grew sweet and slightly suggestive, "and I've heard that the great Gaara of the Desert is interested in a Kunoichi of Konoha who goes by the name of Ino Yamanaka hmmm?".
At his questioning look Sakura giggled lightly, "Don't think that just because I left I didn't watch over my panda bear", his eyes narrowed playfully at the name.
"Really, blossom, I expected more of you then to be a peeping tom", she rolled her eyes and mumbled "you wish".
But her heart rested knowing that he had accepted what they both knew was true.
Kissing her on the cheek he disappeared in a whirl of sand to return back to the village that respected and needed him.
Smiling lightly, Sakura turned away from the Hokage's Chamber and walked down the hall and out the door.
She needed a place to think.
Sakura completely forgot about the others, especially one who was insanely jealous and already desiring to have her as his.
Too bad it wouldn't be that easy.
