Hello again! I'll try to make this a SasuSaku. Please R&R! (In this story, Sakura's dad is dead and her mom's not a ninja.) Again, I don't own any Naruto. Warning: Chapter may be short. I'll try to make them have the same personalities. Sadly I don't own any Naruto.
Assassins"Stop it, stop it, STOP IT!" Sakura woke up with a thin line of sweat. A…dream? It was all a dream? Phew. Sakura got out of her tent to be right in the face of the one an only, Naruto.
"Sakura-chan? What's wrong? Why were you screaming 'stop it?'" asked Naruto worriedly. "It was nothing. Just a bad dream. I won't be able to sleep anymore, so I'll take over the watch." "Thank you!" said Naruto as he walked sleepily over to his tent.
Sigh. I wonder, what's my mom doing? Sakura felt a cold chill run down her spine as she recalled her nightmare. Mom… was sitting in the living room…when… she heard the door open. She…got up to see who it was, when… when… WHAT! A knife was badly thrown at her feet. Two red-faced men unsteadily appeared. Ugh. Just what I was wanted. Two sickening, drunk, bandits. Well, no point in waking up the others. I can take these drunk bandits on.
"Who burp are you?"
"Hmph. Go away or be beaten. What do you pick?"
"I know! How about you come and play with us?" said the first bandit mischievously.
"I'll take that as a 'be beaten.'" Sakura let out a battle cry before charging at them. She threw a hard high kick knocking down the first bandit. "Why you!" said the other bandit taking out his sword. But Sakura swiftly took out her kunai, blocked the sword attack, and punched him hard in the stomach making his unconscious. Inner Sakura. YEAH! Go Sakura! Go Sakura! It's your birthday! Go Sakura!
Suddenly a dark blue haired boy rushed out of his tent. "Sakura." He looked at the bandits. "You're supposed to tell us when there's a threat." " I'm sorry, Sasuke-kun. They're just bandits so I thought that I could take them on myself. "Sakura. What would we do if you were hurt? If there's a threat come tell me. I'll make sure you don't get hurt." He said as he walked inside the tent again. Sakura felt her cheeks get red from embarrassment.
Mom. I have to check up on her. Ooh. Stupid Emi. Just when I feel the need to check up on mom, I have to escort that stupid Emi. Mom…if somebody hurt you I swear, I'll make them wish they never messed with Haruno Sakura's family. Sigh. Wait a minute. What happened to the sound of the birds? What happened to the chirping? All right, something's wrong here. It better not be stupid drunk bandits. Whoever it is, I'm going to make them pay for interrupting my thoughts. Suddenly, a strong hand grabbed her mouth from behind. What! When did they come? Sasuke… I've got to warn the others! If I don't somehow, they'll get Emi! Not that I care.
" Heh, heh, heh. You were so busy in your thoughts you forgot about watching for threats. You're pathetic. (A/N. Don't get me wrong! I like Sakura too. I just wish she were a bit stronger, you know?) I don't know why Ken-sama wanted you dead in the first place. Oi!" he said to the other figure. "Go grab their valuables- if they have any." What! Assassins? For me? But… but why? Wait! If they're out for me……… then that means…………that they might have gotten my mom! OMG! Mom! I've got to warn the others!
"AMN YOU! Et or ands OFF of ee!" came her muffled voice. "Keep quiet if you want to live. Though it won't matter since you already will die. YOUCH!" he cried as Sakura bit his hand. Hard. "Everyone! Wake up! Sasuke-kun! Naruto! K-" she managed to say before that man grabbed her hair and mouth. "You're going to pay for that, you little wench."
As if on cue, Naruto, Sasuke and Kakashi came charging out of their tents. "Sakura-chan!" "Don't move! Unless you want to see you're little friend here's blood."
