Desclaimer: I dont own Naruto ...

Sakura P.O.V

Me and the rest of the group were showing Sarah around, like Tsunade told us. I didnt really feel up to telling the places name's for Sarah, so Naruto was doing that part. He kept babbling about apartments here, and academy students there, that fell on my deaf ears ...

"That's the academy, OH and thats the hospial! And look! There's Ichiraku's! They have the best ramen there, and Oh, I love to eat there!" Naruto exclaims. Sarah giggled at him with a genuine smile. Sarah then gets out a notebook, writing in it as if taking notes. Naruto, well ... being Naruto, he got curious. "Sarah, whats that?" Naruto asked curiousity taking it's toll. Sarah looked confused, but when she looked at her notebook she understood.

"Oh! That's just my songbook!" she answers with a smile. Naruto didn't seem to get it, so Sarah explained. "I write songs." She said.

Naruto then understood and grinned. "YOU WRITE SONGS? COOL!" Naruto says enthusiastically. Thats when i decided to listen. "You write songs? Thats highly unusual for a ninja." I said. Sarah just kept looking straight ahead. "Well, I come from a clan that was populated for music, but my clan was killed from some rare desease." Sarah says looking bumbed. Sai had a questioning look, almost as if he knew something was up. I shook that though off and kept walking.

We finally made it to Sarah's appartment building. "And THATS where you'll be staying! Sai lives here too, so if you have questions just ask him." Naruto says kindly. Sarah suddenly blushed. "S-Sai lives here too ..?" She stuttered. Naruto took a peak at her. "Well, yeah ... is that a bad thing becasue we can easily-"

"NO!" She suddenly burst. We all looked at her shocked by her response. She got control of herself again and looked down blushing. "I-I mean I dont mind at all." She stampered again.

We all went inside the appartment and went to the front desk. "Sarah Tsukino? Ah, yes, your room is 38-B. Here's your key." The counter lady gave her a key. Sarah nodded. "Thank you very much oh, and here's a tip." Sarah gave her the tip, and the lady was shocked. "I cant accept this! This is 1623.200 yen!" The counter lady said. Sarah shook her head and wafted her hand. "It's no trouble! I came from very wealthy clan, dont worry about a thing." Sarah said kindly. The counter lady smiled. "Alright then, and, and thank you!" She said gratefully. Sarah looked at us and we had mouths agap.

"What? I'm a nice person" Sarah says, and walks ahead of us. I'm not sure if I was hallusinating or not, but I think I saw Sai's "I cant believe it!" look. He definitely knew something we didnt, I'm getting suspicious. "Uh, Sai? Is she ALWAYS like this?" Naruto asked sounding confused.

Sai sweatdropped. "As much as I hate it, yes, she's been like that ever sense we were kids, when it comes to missions, she's serious, but not too serious. She may be have a very high IQ and can be too nice, but she has the temper of a angered rino. She's like you, Sakura, Maybe a little nicer, but yes. She got those 64 missions done with luck, determination and, well ... luck." Sai said sounding truthful. Ok, this is weird, now Sai said she was too nice! They must have been friends longer then I thought.

We caught up to Sarah and we went to show her, her room. We fianlly made it to 38-B! "Tsunade had your stuff moved here ahead of time so you wouldnt have to carry your bags." I say almost adding envy. Tsunade didnt let me have the treatment Sarah was getting. I was almost jealous, but just almost.

Sarah entered and looked around. It was a nice place, the walls were painted yellow and white, A nice glass coffee table with yellow roses on a vase, the kitchen was also nice. "Well, If you have questions, feel free to ask us!" Naruto beamed. Sarah smiled at him. "Thank you very much Naruto-san." Sarah said. Naruto held his hands in front. "Please, just Naruto is fine!" He said, blushing. Little did I know, Sai was glaring at Naruto.

When we left the room and into the hall, a sugestion crossed my mind. "We should ask Tsunade about something that happened in the hospital." I said recalling at what happened. "Yeah? What about it?" Naruto asked. I didnt want to explain now! "I'll explain on the way." I say simply.

Sarah P.O.V

So far so good! I made new friends and got my new appartment! This is totally a new experience for me, and I even got to see a buildboard! I always begged Danzo-sama to have a mission that involved even getting close to Konoha, but he said I was too fragile or too delicate. But I have to admit, I was young at the time. I for one didnt understand how Root was any different from Konoha, it was so unfair!

I worked so hard for this, I even did 64 S-rank missions, and he calls me delicate! I sighed, Danzo-sama didnt care for my well-being, the only reason why he took me in was because of my power. I hated Root ever sense my clan was killed.

I felt bad about lying to Sakura and Naruto, but It's better they dont know about how my clan was really killed and why I'm so powerful or important. I went to my room, It was very clean and nice. It had a bed with white sheets and the walls were painted yellow and white, wordrobe there, and a big bathroom.

I looked outside, the day was still young, I decided to look around Konoha, see how wonderful it is. I smiled at the thought and went to change into my casual cloths. It wasnt fancy, just a dark green kimono dress, barely above my knees and I decided to wear my hair completely down. I left the appartment and locked the door. When I got outside I stared in awe at all the people continuing with their lives.

I never seen people so happy before, I hope I NEVER have to forget this moment! I know Sai is ANBU already, but the reason I couldnt become chunin, was because Danzo-sama didnt let me... He thought that I didnt deserve to become chunin because I wasnt a heartless killer who could kill even the innocent. I wanted to prove to Danzo that he's wrong, but failed. He said If I can stay at Konoha for quite some time, I'm not sure how long, he would finally see what I'm capable of!

I knew one thing for sure, root was not where I belonged, even when my clan was killed, I still wanted no revenge for that. I maybe strong in the outside, but inside, i'm still sad about what happened, and I know Danzo couldnt care less.

Sometimes I wonder why I didnt run away like my sister, I could save all the trouble. My younger sister didnt technically run away, but she was forced out of the fire country, some ANBU took her to a different country, who knows where!

I pushed my life story aside and walked the streets of Konoha. I had to try to avoid the stares I was reciving from the people. I reached a ramen shop called Ichiraku's. I decided to go there, I was starving anyways. I went there only to find ... Naruto? "Hi Naruto!" I greeted kindly. Naruto looked up from eating ramen, I could see a couple of bowls on the side.

Naruto grinned. "Hi Sarah!" He said kindly. "Did you come for some ramen? It's on me!" Naruto suggested. I didnt want to be a burden. "Oh no no no! It's fine! I can pay myself." I convinced. Naruto shrugged and went back to eating. I asked the counter guy for miso ramen. He got to work while I sat next to Naruto. When I got the bowl, I looked at it uncertainly.

Naruto caught my expression, and smiled. "Try it, it's really good!" he said with a grin. I took come chopsticks and ate some of the noodles.

I seriously havent had something this good in years! "It's wonderful!" I exclaim and start eating like I was starving. Naruto cheered. "TOLD YA!" He said proudly.

30 minutes later

When I finished my ramen, and changed back into my usual attire, I headed to Tsunade-sama's office. I couldnt help but wonder what mission I had to do. I was so excited to have my first mission from konoha! When I made it there Naruto, Sai, and Sakura were already there. I bowed with polite, and spoke. "You called me Tsunade sama?" I asked. Tsunade put down her sake and looked up. "You will be assigned a mission with Sai, Sakura, and Naruto. Sai is the leader of this mission. I want you to find the missing nurses that were kidnapped along with the helpers. Go to the gates before sundown, off with all of you!" Tsunade ordered.

We went out of the office and started heading to the gates. When we got there, Sakura started checking healing supplies and kunais and what-not. I sighed and we already started jumping from tree to tree.

I was reading a map while jumping, and Sai and the others were almost ahead of me. "Sarah, where are we going exactly?" Sai asked. I got the map and started reading. "About 23 kilometers, due south, and we make a left on the last kilometer." I inform. Sai sunk in with the information and we went to our destination.

After about, lets say, 45 minutes of jumping from tree to tree, we found a nice clearing in the forrest to rest, it was almost sundown anyway. Sai stopped. "We should rest here for the night, I'll stand watch." Sai said with no emotion what-so-ever. It's not a new thing though, I remember the day when Shinn died, and that changed our lives forever.

I had a drop dead crush on Shinn when I was younger, and I did just about anything to get his attention, but he didnt notice me. We were just friends, but when I found out about Shinn's death, I blamed myself for letting him catch that awful desease... Even in Root, Shinn wasnt emotionless, but neither was I. I was in fact, very heavy with emotions.

Those missions I did though, were with determination! Maybe I was a little lucky on 20 of them, but I was still young back then! I'm going to prove to everyone that I am not a damsel in distress! When Sai made the tents and I started the fire with some firewood and a match, Sakura gathered some medical herbs for later.

Sakura P.O.V

I had already gathered some herbs for later. I saw Sarah already starting the fire. I got up to talk to her. "Sarah, I need you to do me a favor." I say with politeness. Sarah smiled brightly. "Anything Sakura-san." She said with almost too much politeness. I held a box of different kinds of herbs and medical supplies. "I have to sort these medical supplies and I was wondering if you could go with Naruto and bring some food from the lake nearby." I requested.

Sarah nodded simply and went with Naruto to get some food. "Naruto! Sakura wants us to get food!" Sarah yells while running to him. My work here is done. I went back to organizing the medical supplies from A-Z. I suddenly heard some bushes rustling, and snapped my head to the bushes. "Sai did you hear that?" I ask on alert. Sai turned and looked emotionless. "No, I dont think so." Sai answered.

I shook the thought off and went back to organizing the herbs. Today, couldnt possibly get more boring! I know it's my job, but I need to rest for once! 'UGH! I need sleep! can we sleep now?' My inner said annoyingly. NO! What if a ninja jumps us, we cant risk that! I thought back. My inner huffted. 'You work too hard, you know that?' My inner says in a fact like tone. I chuckled in my head. So i've been told. I thought sarcastically.

I finally finished, I got up and checked to see if Naruto or Sarah came back. Surprisingly no. I wonder what's taking them so long...

Sarah's P.O.V

"Hold the rod and dont let go Naruto!" I cried as we got a huge fish. Naruto was fighting with all his strength, trying to keep the fish from swimming away. Apparently, It was too late; danmit it swam away! "CRAP!" I cursed without meaning to and covered my mouth. Naruto gasped. "I didnt know you curs-"

Naruto was suddenly shot with a needle! I gasped. "NARUTO ARE YOU OK-" Then it was all black.

Cliffy! YAY! lol, this is my first clifthanger! Sorry if you hate me for decideding it! I promise I WILL make the next chapter soon! 2-3 days or so I'm not really sure! No promises!

PLEASE REVEIEW! :D
