Chapter 2: White and Black: Light Hidden By Darkness

Sakura looked up and around at everything. She was plunged in eternal darkness all around her. Cold, eternal, and lonely darkness.

At that moment, Sakura realized she wasn't absolutely alone. Someone was soon standing in front of her. Her old teammate, Sasuke.

He turned around to leave.

"No, Sasuke! Don't leave me!" Sakura ran after the Uchiha, but it seemed as if the faster she ran, the father she got away from him. Sasuke completely disappeared into the darkness, leaving Sakura.

Alone once more....

xXx

Sakura woke up gasping and panting hard. She looked at everything around her and noticed she was in darkness again. Alone. Just like the dream she had just had.

She was sitting in a bed, and she saw that almost her whole body was wrapped up. "What's going on?" Sakura soliloquized. Suddenly, in the other corner of the room, she finally noticed someone was there.

An Uchiha. A huge grin spread across Sakura's face. She was about to greet her old teammate when the memories of hours before came back to her.

This wasn't Sasuke, it was his brother... Itachi. "Uchiha.... Itachi...?" Sakura's stammered in a low voice. She tightened her fist and prepared to fight.

"Haruno Sakura... was it?" The Uchiha responded in the darkness. "I entrust you with this secret."

Sakura's eyes widened and she loosened her fist. "Wha-what is it?" Sakura asked slowly, butterflies bursting in her stomach.

"I'm on Konoha's side. I'm not against you. I want you to know that." Itachi reached over to Sakura and pecked her gently on the lips.
