Sakura's P.O.V.

tap tap tap tap

Groaning loudly, Sakura rolled over on her bed and tried to get back to sleep.

Tap tap tap tap

Ignoring the noise, she buried her head further under her pillow and closed her eyes tighter.

BANG BANG BANG BANG

Shooting up and out of bed she stared at the door in shock from her spot on the floor as it slowly opened to reveal Inari's mother, Tsunami, standing there looking like an angel, as though she hadn't just been kicking at the door like a mad woman. She was such a kind, peaceful looking person; it was hard to grasp how demonic she could act sometimes.

"Oh Sakura-chan, you're up already! That's wonderful! I need a little help with breakfast now that there are so many people staying here~" she sang out pleasantly, handing Sakura her washed clothes and turning, leaving the room. "I'll wait for you in the living room by the stairs. Be down soon~" with that she was gone, leaving a twitching Sakura in the slowly brightening room all by herself.

'It's 6:00 A.M! Why on earth do we need to be up this early to make breakfast?' she questioned herself, eye twitching slightly. 'I'm so glad I went to bed early last night.' she thought, gazing at her bandaged hands.

W-w-w-w Flashback w-w-w-w

She had just gotten back to the bridge builder's home when the doors were suddenly thrown open by an irritated Inari. It wasn't hard to guess that he had tried to get his mother to make them leave and never come back again; he had been trying that a lot for the few days they had been there.

'He just doesn't give up does he?'

Noticing her looking at him, he scowled, ran up, and pushed her over before running off. Not expecting the action, Sakura couldn't stop her fall and landed palms first onto an empty flower pot, shattering it. After countless apologies and bandaging the pinkette's cut hands, Tsunami went off to find Inari, leaving Sakura to come to the realisation that Sasuke and Naruto were still out, probably training while Kakashi was asleep (more like passed out) upstairs.

Sighing to herself, she made her way to the bathroom, planning nothing more than to have a hot, relaxing bath and go to bed.

'I wish I could have spent more time with Tobi, he was so funny. Hehe, I bet he would have actually told Kakashi-sensei to go eff himself!' Sakura thought, smiling to herself and running the bath.

W-w-w-w End Flashback w-w-w-w

Ok, she would admit she was wrong, it had taken until 9:00 A.M. to finish preparing breakfast. She just didn't know why Tsunami put so much effort into a meal that would be over in a flash! Her train of thought was interrupted by the front door slamming open as Naruto and Sasuke both tried to fit through the doorway at the same time. She did find it rather humorous to watch them tussle on the ground trying to reach the table first though.

She did not however, find it funny that they were rapidly shovelling the perfectly made food she and Tsunami had spent hours preparing, down their throats without even chewing! They were stupidly trying to out eat each other. And then, after gorging, they would vomit and start eating again! It was disgusting! And it was also wasting the time and effort that was put into the food. They were disrespecting their hosts and Kakashi was doing absolutely nothing about it, he was just sitting back laughing. Deciding to leave them be, Sakura stood up from the table and went to get herself ready for the day, shooting the boys a dirty look as she passed them.

'Who would have thought my Sasuke-kun could act like this?' she thought, ignoring the questioning looks her team was giving her.

Team Seven's P.O.V.

'Hey, why did Sakura-chan look so mad?'

'Hn, annoying.'

'Oh kami, please don't tell me she's old enough to get 'that time of the month'! *Cue extensive sweating* I can't handle this! Maybe if I just have her watch Tazuna today the boys and I will live to see next week.'

Sakura's P.O.V.

''You can watch over the bridge builder Sakura" he says "just take today off and rest". Why can't I go training with my team? Did they finally have enough of me? Are they leaving me so I'll finally quit being a bother and leave them all alone? How could they!' tears sprung to her eyes for the fifth time that day as she sat on an old beam a little ways away from where Tazuna was working. 'Why am I such a cry baby?' she silently berated herself, looking up at the darkening sky. Reaching into her bag, she pulled out a tissue and dabbed at the corners of her eyes.

'Wait! Why didn't I feel...' eyes widening she ripped open her bag and dumped everything out next to her. 'My wallet, it- it's gone!' panicking she shoved everything back in and ran over to Tazuna, looking like she was going to burst into tears again at any moment.

"I-I have to go. I think I dropped my wallet somewhere around town so I need to go look for it!" she said in a rush, spinning around and racing off.

"Good luck findin' it around here girly! Someone's probably already spent all ya' cash and pawned off the wallet! Ya' wastin' ya' time!" he called after her, watching her increase her speed and peer around frantically. 'Poor kid'.

Madara's P.O.V.

'So that's the Kyuubi brat hmm, what an unworthy waste of space' he observed, watching the scene in front of him. The two boys were still trying to grasp the control needed to climb their trees but were getting higher slowly but surely. 'I could just snatch him now and be done with it...no, the timing isn't quite right yet.'

Turning away from the team, Madara walked off, heading deeper into the surrounding forest with a frown on his face. Adjusting his mask, he turned, facing a tree just in time to see a bi-coloured man faze out of it partially.

"What is it you want now Zetsu? I specifically told you that I didn't want to be disturbed." he hissed out, sharingan spinning slowly.

"Pein-sama requests that you come back to Amegakure, some shit about discussing plans." he stated, keeping a straight face. It was easy for Madara to tell he was nervous though. Frown deepening at the thought of going back to the dreary place, he mockingly replied,

"Well then, you'll have to tell 'Pein-sama' that I refuse. I shall return when I deem fit. Until then I don't want to see or hear from you or him. You're dismissed."

"Hai Madara-sama." the plant man replied, fazing back into the tree reluctantly.

'The fool, can he not do anything for himself?' he thought, referring to Pein. 'That twit is not deserving of the rinnegan.' Making his way back towards the village, Madara sighed lowly to himself.

The reason he had refused to return was simple.

He was bored.

The Uchiha Madara had gotten bored.

All of the repetitive discussions and planning had gotten him stir crazy, being in the same place all the time didn't help either. Not wanting to rush his plans, just to keep himself entertained; he left to find something to occupy himself, and that was turning out to be harder than he had originally thought. But stumbling (not that the great Uchiha Madara stumbles) upon the Konoha team was a rather interesting turn of events, one that he was not completely against letting play out. In fact, realizing the pink haired girl from the day before was on the Kyuubi's team had him plotting well into the night.

'Yes,' he thought 'this might just be entertaining after all."

Sakura's P.O.V.

Having given up the search for her wallet earlier that evening, the pink haired girl had returned home. A depressing shadow seemed to follow after her wherever she went in the house. After getting Tsunami to help her clean and bandage her hands again she decided to settle in for the night and just relax for a while, choosing not to question the slightly apprehensive looks Kakashi was shooting her whenever they came within a 3 foot radius of each other.

She didn't really want to admit it but half the time she was looking for her wallet she had really spent trying to spot the orange mask wearing man named Tobi she had met the day before. It seemed silly, and she knew there was very little chance they would ever see each other again, but she couldn't help but to glance hopefully around every corner she passed.

She gave up a little while after her third visit to the area of beach where they had met. She knew she shouldn't get so attached to him, he was basically a stranger, it couldn't be helped though. The mystery he presented and the way he had cheered her up had instantly drawn her attention. He was new, interesting to her. He may get all up in her face and was a little rude but she was on a team with NARUTO so she was used to it and didn't even notice until he started swearing. THAT she wasn't used to.

'How sad am I' she thought to herself, relaxing and starting on her dinner, watching the boys go at it again from across the table. 'Growing attached to a complete stranger and then deeming him a friend, someone I'll likely never see again. It's true though, that stranger is the closest thing I've had to a friend since I was 10 or so.'

"Uhhh..." was the first thing out of her mouth when she noticed Tazuna had been speaking to her for the past few minutes and she hadn't been listening in the slightest. She thanked kami that he didn't notice her distracted state.

Trying to refocus Tazuna's attention on something else, Sakura gazed at the picture hanging on the wall across from her and questioned Tsunami about it. 'I would have kept my mouth shut if I'd had any idea as to how Inari would react.' she thought warily, watching him storm out after causing a huff.

After listening to the explanation she had a better understanding of why things were as they were here in wave. Watching Kakashi follow after Inari and the boys take off again she helped clean up the table and dry the dishes (as well as she could at the moment anyway due to her bandages). Deciding to go to bed, she bid her good nights and made her way upstairs.

-W-w-w-w-

Waking up quietly was a real treat for Sakura. No one kicking the door down, no Naruto cooing at her whilst uncomfortably close to her face, and no getting poked by crutches today, nope, no sir-ee! She had made sure to wake up extra early for just that reason. Getting dressed in her usual attire and brushing her long, silky pink hair she slowly made her way downstairs to the kitchen. Grabbing some leftovers from yesterday's breakfast, she sat down at the table and ate her fill, choosing to ignore the passed out Tazuna surrounded by sake bottles blocking the back door.

"Isn't he meant to be working today?" she mumbled, sweat dropping slightly.

Sighing happily to herself, she set the dirty dishes down gently in the sink and placed a note on the table.

Dear whoever reads this first,

I'm going out training for the day so someone else will have to watch over Tazuna.

I'll be back before it gets too dark. Have a nice day and see you later! : )

-Sakura Haruno

Satisfied with herself, she quickly crept over Tazuna and exited the house out the back door, careful not to wake him, locking it silently behind her. Walking up the tree surrounded road that lead to the town at this hour of the morning was an intriguing experience for the young Haruno. Usually the road was busy and her dress was getting tugged this way and that by hungry little kids pleading for anything she would give them. The sun was just starting to rise in the sky and the animals were just waking. Taking in a deep breath of the misty sea air, Sakura continued onwards towards the town, humming happily to herself with a noticeable skip in her step.

As the trees began to thin, Sakura could make out the town up ahead. It still looked the same (worn out, dirty, in need of repair) but there were only four or five people out opening up their shops. Passing through the small village, Sakura made her way to the now familiar beach and began stretching.

"Cherry-chan! What are you doing out alone this early in the morning? Tobi is so glad he got to meet you again! He missed you soooooo much! WHAT HAPPENED TO CHERRY-CHAN'S HANDS!"

Turning around, startled at the sudden shouting, a smile lit up her face at the sight that greeted her eyes.

'Tobi'
