Chapter One, How it all Started.
~ Konohagakure no Sato, Friday 20th December, Konoha's Cemetery ~
The cemetery was covered with thick snow, and the wind blew harshly through the bare branches of the trees that surrounded it, the trees looking as dead as those buried in the ground.
A woman stood before one grave, seemingly unbothered by the random gushes of harsh wind.
She was a beautiful woman with flowing waist-length dark blue hair, with shoulder-length strands framing her doll-like face. Pearl like eyes were framed with soft long dark lashes, heart shaped lips were a pale white from the cold though she didn't seemed bothered. She was 5'5" with pale skin covering a slender curvy frame. She wore black jeans tucked into her fur topped black winter boots, a thick dark violet jacket, a black scarf, and a dark violet hat. She looked to be only twenty.
She looked at the grave with fondness in her eyes, and a small smile on her pale lips.
I remember how it all started. She thought to herself, her eyes going unfocused as memories from the past began to take over her mind. How my life was like before she entered it. It was five years ago when it all started to change, even if I didn't know it then.
~ Konohagakure no Sato, Konoha High, Class 1B, Friday 11th July, 4:30 pm ~
Hinata sighed as she slowly got her things together. She wanted to take as much time as possible, knowing her classmates would leave, not bothering to wait to bully her like they did during school.
Hinata was 5'0", with chin-length dark blue hair, with neck-length strands framing her face, and pearl like eyes surrounded by lon soft dark lashes. She had pale skin covering a slim frame with soft curves. She wore a white blouse with a dark green neck-tie, a knee-length dark green skirt, a dark green blazer, over-the-knee socks, and soft brown shoes.
"Are you okay, Hinata-chan?"
She looked up to the only person who was nice to her. Uzumaki Naruto, though he didn't hang around with her, when they were alone, or no one was looking he would ask if she was okay. Like Hinata, Naruto wasn't very well liked in school.
He had spiky sunny blond hair, and blue eyes, with three whisker-like marks on each cheek. He had tanned skin covering a lean frame. He wore a untucked white shirt, dark grey pants, a loose dark green tie, and brown shoes. His dark green blazer was thrown over his shoulder. He was 5'6".
"Hai, Naruto-kun." She answered softly.
The blond nodded, before waving goodbye, and leaving.
Hinata sighed again, before she got up, and left as well. She knew the moment she got home, her father would tell her how weak she was, and how much of a disgrace she was to the family. He would also say that she shouldn't be the heir to the family, and that she could never do anything right. Hinatawas used to it. She had heard it since the death of her mother, when she was young.
Though her heart should feel heavy, like it normally did as she rode her bike towards her home, for some reason she had a feeling that things were going to change, and she was going to like this change.
She didn't know why she felt that way, but preferred it over her normally heavy heart.
~ Amegakure no Sato, Akatsuki House, Friday 11th July, 05:30 pm ~
Akatsuki Pein had to with hold a sigh, as he slid open the door to his home, already he could hear some of his adopted children.
"HIDAN! I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!"
"FUCK OFF KAKUZU! IT WASN'T FUCKING ME!"
"DEIDARA!"
"SHUT THE HELL UP TOBI! YEAH"
"DON'T TELL TOBI TO SHUT UP!"
"STAY OUT OF THIS ZETSU!"
He sighed inwardly, before he took of his shoes, and put them into the getabako, and run his hand through his spiky orange hair. He put on a pair of white house slippers, before stepping on to the raised platform, and heading towards the kitchen, ignoring the curses, and crushes coming from upstairs.
Pein though in his mid-thirties, had aged slowly, and looked to be in the mid-twenties. He was 6'1", with tanned skin covering his lean, and toned frame. He had grey tinted purple eyes, and many face piercings from his teen years, though somehow he got them to work with the white shirt, straight leg black pants, and black belt, he wore.
As he entered the kitchen he took in everything, before taking in the four people in it.
The kitchen had wooden counter tops, wood cupboards, with a built in gas-stove, with a fish grill. In front of the window, was the sink, with a metal dish rack. On the counter top was a silver rice cooker, a silver microwave oven, a electric toaster oven, and a wooden copping board. Fixed on the wall was the water boiler, and placed next to it was the silver refrigerator. There was a round table, with four chairs in the corner of the kitchen, but it wasn't enough for the family of twelve. The kitchen was painted a light cream, and the floors was wooden.
His only adopted daughter, Sakura, sat at the table between Itachi, and Sasuke.
Sakura was 4'9", with neck-length strands framing her face, while the rest of her pink hair was cut chin-length, and styled into spikes going everywhere. Her eyes were a deep forest green surrounded by thick long black lashes. She had pale skin covering her slim athletic frame with soft curves. She had two helix piercings in each ear, and both ears had a tragus piercing, and she had two spiky studs in each lobe. She was wearing a tight black t-shirt, with the words 'I'm not afraid to sacrifice you to Jashin-sama with a spork' on it, in red bold letters, skinny black jeans, a studded belt, a choker with the Jashin symbol on it, ten black jelly bands on her right arm, and two studded bracelets on her left, she had a skull ring on her left middle finger, and a full finger ring on her right ring finger, and of course house slippers. She was biting on her one of her two lip rings at either corner of her mouth, as she wrote down something in her Nightmare before Christmas notebook.
Itachi was 5'11", with mid-back black hair, pulled into a low ponytail, with a few strands framing his face, and red eyes. He had thin wire glasses, and pale skin covering a lean athletic frame. He wore skinny black jeans, a tight red t-shirt, two armbands on each arm, a chain like necklace, and house slippers. A silver helix claw peircing was in his left ear. His painted black nails were tapping on the wood table as he read his book.
Sasuke was Itachi's real brother, and was 5'6". He had black tinted blue hair, that spiked up at the back, and two shoulder length strands framing his face, and black tinted red eyes. He had pale skin covering a lean athletic frame, and wore skinny grey jeans, a white t-shirt, with a black waist coat on top, five jelly bands on either arm, and slippers. He leaned back in his seat, tapping his pen against his lip ring on the right side of his mouth.
His wife, Konan, was finishing cooking dinner.
She had bright blue hair, in a loose bun, with a paper rose clipped to the bun. She was 5'6", with amber eyes, and pale skin covering a slender frame with soft but defined curves She wore a turtle neck, sleeveless back top, jeans, and house slippers. She had a silver lip piercing, and a stud in each ear. Her wedding ring shone with a glint as the light hit it.
Like him, she had aged slowly.
"I'm home." Pein said, making them look up.
"Welcome home." Konan, and Sakura greeted, as Itachi, and Sasuke nodded at him.
"So what did Hidan do this time?" Pein asked with a smirk, as he heard Kakuzu tackle Hidan down the stairs, for the 20th time this week.
"Took some of Kakuzu's money, that he had been saving up to get us our birthday presents at the New years sales." Sakura answered, as she finished whatever she was writting in her Nightmare before Christmas notebook, with her Jack Skellington pen.
Pein just shook his head, as Sasori, and Kisame entered.
Sasori was 5'8", with messy red hair, and rust coloured eyes. He had tanned skin covering a lean athletic frame. He wore a long sleeved brown top, with the Suna school symbol on it, from their last school, black jeans, and house slippers. He had one rim piercing in his left ear.
Kisame was 6'5", with spiky dark blue hair, and light grey eyes. He had gill tattoos on his cheek bones, and had pale skin covering a muscular frame. He wore a red t-shirt, with a cartoon shark on the front, jeans, and house slippers. He two black studs in the rim of his right ear.
"Welcome home." Kisame greeted Pein, with a grin, before getting a bottle of water from the fridge, as Sasori took the last seat at the table.
"Are you already planning pranks, Sakura?" Sasori asked, leaning back in his seat.
Sakura looked up with an innocent shocked expression - that fooled no one - and said; "Sasori, I have no idea what you are talking about, I would never do such a thing."
Sasuke rolled his eyes, as Kisame snorted before he took a sip of water, while Itachi smirked.
He knew if they didn't know her like they did, she would of been able to fool them.
"Of course you wouldn't. I must of mistaken you with my other sister." Sasori commented dryly, making Sakura grin.
"Fucking Kakuzu." Hidan cursed, as he walked into the kitchen, blood dripping from the wound of his head from his fight with Kakuzu.
He had slicked back silver hair, and pinkish purple eyes. He was 5'9", with pale skin covering a lean frame. He wore jeans, a v-neck black long sleeved top, a Jashin necklace, and slippers. He had two black rings on the right side of his mouth, on the left side he had on stud, with two rim piercings in his left ear.
Konan silently handed him a damp towel, which he used to wipe the blood away as he cursed Kakuzu to hell and back.
"Lost another fight, huh?" Sakura asked absently, making Sasuke, Itachi and Sasori smirk, while Kisame grinned flashing his sharp teeth.
"Go to hell, Midget." Hidan snarled, making Sakura's eyes flash.
Zetsu entered just then, and casually punched Hidan in the face, having heard the silver haired teen call his sister a midget, a name that he knew annoyed her greatly.
Zetsu was 6'1", with short, choppy grass green hair, and gold eyes. He had pale skin covering a lean athletic frame, and had two helix piercings in his right ear, and two rim piercings in his left, and had his left eyebrow pierced. He wore black jeans, a long sleeved thin black top, with a dark green t-shirt on top, and slippers. He had silver rings on his right ring finger, right middle finger, right index finger, left middle finger, left thumb, and left baby finger.
He was Sakura's real brother, though they had different fathers, they had the same mother, so Zetsu was kind of protective of his 'only' blood family. Neither of them knew if their mother was still alive, and frankly they didn't really care. They didn't know who their fathers were, only their mother knew.
Hidan cursed the taller teen as he used one hand to rub his jaw.
Zetsu smirked to himself as he leaned against the counter next to Kisame, while Sakura grinned smugly at the silver haired teen.
~ Saturday 12th July, Amegakure no Sato, Akatsuki house, 08:00 am ~
Sakura yawned as she tried to sit up, only to be held down by Tobi with his arms around her waist, and his head resting on her stomach.
Tobi was 5'10", with short spiky black hair, and onyx eyes, though his left one was hidden by an eye-patch. He had pale skin covering a lean athletic frame. He was wearing his Pokemon pajamas. Two studs was in his left ear.
All of the ten teens had camped out in the living room last night, and Tobi always ended up clinging to her in his sleep. She layed back down, resting her head back on to Zetsu's bare stomach since he was only wearing black pajama bottoms.
Beside her, Deidara groaned sleepily, before he turned, and wrapped his arms, around her arm.
Deidara was 5'9", with mid-back-length sunny blonde hair, and sky blue eyes. He had tanned skin covering a lean frame. He wore baggy black shorts, and black t-shirt. He had two helix peircings in his right ear.
She groaned annoyed with her eyes closed, knowing that she should be getting ready, but then again she never was a morning person. She opened her eyes, when she felt someone staring at her, to met the eyes of Sasuke - who was smirking down at her - already dressed in clean clothes with an eyebrow raised.
He wore black skinny jeans, a white t-shirt, with a grey design on it, a black waist coat, and a white scarf with black skulls on it wrapped around his neck. He, of course, also had his black jelly bands.
"Help?" She groaned, throwing her free arm in the air for him to grab.
He just smirked more, and left her there.
"You fucking bastard!" She hissed at him, being careful not to wake up her other brothers.
Sasuke just waved one of his hands over his shoulder, she could almost feel the big smirk on his face, as he left the room. She glared at his back, till he was out of sight.
Kisame was the next person to enter the living room, and he grinned down at his little sister.
"Need help?" He asked, making her nod.
He was wearing jeans, and a black shirt, with a shark on his breast pocket.
She threw her arm up, and he grabbed it, yanking her out of his two younger brother's hold, making them jerk out of their sleep with yelps, and Zetsu sleepily open his eyes.
"Arigato, Kisame." Sakura said, before she left the room, ignoring Deidara's shouts at Kisame.
She ignored it all, as she ran up to her room. They were moving to Konoha after all.
She quickly got dressed in a plain black t-shirt, and black skinny jeans, before she went to the bathroom to put her make-up on, and to brush her teeth.
She slid on her chokers, bracelets, and rings, before she pulled a pill bottle from her make-up bag. She paused as she held it, and just stared at the lable with her name printed neatly on it.
A pale hand took the bottle from her hand, and she turned to see Zetsu standing next to her.
He said nothing as he took off the lid, took out two pills and gave them to her, before he replaced the lid and gave her a glass of water. He watched as she took the pills and used the water to help them go down.
As he met her green eyes, he had flash back of the same green eyes staring at him in pain with tears rolling down hollow cheeks, as she coughed up blood, he could still remember how helpless he felt in those moments.
Suddenly he was brought back to the present when he felt a warm body hug him.
"Arigato, Aniki." He felt more the heard her whisper against his torso, and wrapped his arms around her loosely.
He sighed as he closed his eyes, and bent slight so he could rest his chin on her head.
He would always be grateful for what Konan and Pein did for them. Because he knew with out them, Sakura wouldn't be alive.

"SAKURA-CHAN!" Tobi shouted as he jumped on his sister's bed, still in his superman pajamas.
He was suddenly tackled by said sister, who wrapped her hands around his neck.
"I should sacrifice you to Jashin-sama with a spork!" She hissed darkly, as Tobi shouted for help.
Kakuzu being a morning person, entered his sister's room, and dragged Sakura off their brother.
Kakuzu had shaggy dark brown hair, stitch tattoos, and green on black eyes. He was 6'4", with tanned skin covering a lean, and toned frame. He was already dressed in the school's uniform.
"Let me kill him!" Sakura hissed as Kakuzu held her back while Tobi rushed out of the room.
"Get dressed." Kakuzu ordered, before leaving.
Sakura huffed, before she did as ordered.

Hinata sighed softly to herself, as she tapped her pen to her notebook. Kakashi was late again, as she thought that, the door slid open, and entered Kakashi, and two teens behind him.
One was a girl, with her pink hair, made Hinata think she would never forget her. She wore shorts under the dark green skirt of their uniform, she had odd socks one being black and green striped over-the-knee on her right leg and on her left she had a bright red and black striped over-the-knee sock, she also had a studded belt loosely around her waist. She had a choker, with a circle, with an upside down triangle in it, a full finger ring on her right ring finger, a skull ring on her left middle finger, and wore black arm-warmers, that covered her thumb. Her white blouse had the top two buttons undone, and she had no neck-tie, or ribbon around her neck. She also wore combat boots with a heel, making her height 5'2". Her blazer was thrown over the back of her shoulder bag.
The boy looked like he would have a fan group by the end of class, from the many girls staring at him with hearts in their eyes. He wore the normal uniform though his tie was loose, and the first two buttons of his shirt was undone, he also had black sneakers. He had four black bands on either wrist, and also had a studded belt.
"Sorry, I'm late, I had to pick up the new students." Kakashi said.
He was 5'11", with spiky silver hair, and one onyx eye, while the other was red, with a scar going over it. He had peach coloured skin covering a lean, and toned frame. He wore black straight leg pants, a white shirt, and a loose black tie.
"This is Akatsuki Sasuke, and Akatsuki Sakura." He nodded towards the two students, as he leaned against his desk. "Why don't you tell us something about yourselves?"
"How about no?" Sakura said, in return with an innocent smile on her face making Sasuke smirk.
Kakashi sweat-dropped. Great, that's all I need. Another trouble-making brat. He thought, with a nervous slight smile on his lips.
"Sasuke-san, you'll be sitting next to Naruto, and Sakura-san, you'll be sitting next to Hinata." Kakashi said. "If you two would raise their hands."
Hinata, and Naruto raised their hands, and the two siblings started to walk towards their seats, when the whispers started.
"Poor them, having to seat next to the freaks!" "At least Uzumaki isn't as much of a freak as Hyuga." "Poor girl having to sit next to the loser."
Hinata's hands clenched into fists under her desk, as she glared at her desk, her bangs covering her eyes, as Sakura slid into the chair next to her.
"You shouldn't let them get to you, you know?"
Hinata looked up surprised at Sakura. Sakura wasn't even looking at her, though she was facing her. She had her head tilted towards the front, with her head resting on her left palm, her right hand was laying flat on the desk, her pen and note book was already in front of her.
"They're just jealous. You shouldn't let them annoy you so easily, nor should you sit back, and take it." Sakura said, turning her black lined green eyes to met Hinata's pearl eyes.
Hinata felt annoyance bubble in her chest. How dare this stranger talk to me like she knows me! She knows nothing about me! Hinata glared at her, before turning her face to the front, and grabbed her pen, ready to take notes.
She heard Sakura chuckle, but ignored her.
Naruto turned in his seat to see Sakura, since Sasuke wouldn't talk to him.
"Ohayo, my name is Uzumaki Naruto." He whispered loudly with a grin, making Sasuke twitch, and Sakura smirk.
"Akatsuki Sakura." She told him, though he already knew.
"It's good to meet you, Sakura-chan." He said, his grin wider then before.
Before Sakura, or Naruto could say anything else, a pen was thrown at the back of Naruto's head by Kakashi.
"Pay attention, Naruto. Your already failing this class, try not to bring your grade down even more." Kakashi said not looking at Naruto since he was reading his orange book, as he wrote on the board.
Almost the whole class laughed, apart from Sasuke, Hinata, Sakura, and Naruto.
Naruto groaned, as he turned to face the front.
Okay this is the rewrite of my good friend . Darken. For. Tear. Drops. How Akatsuki Sakura changed my life. I would like you to know in Drops' first idea of this story Sakura had a disease, but she didn't know how to put it into the story. So I made sure to put it in for her.
