So here's the second chapter. I had it ready Monday but, well I'm retarded and I deleted twice so I finally got it typed up today. I forgot to mention this is inner-sakura and this is a regular thought. I just wanted to clear it up. Its going to be a bit of a cliffie and i'll start working on making them longer after chapter 4 because thats how far I have it written up to.

Enjoy!


We moved swiftly and quickly through the forest. Tree after tree, man this got boring. The sunset was starting to form those colors in the sky that marked that the night wasn't too far off. We stopped in the perfect square of a meadow. It looked like it was just noon and there were some creepy little birds singing in a corner. There were also some little critters scurrying across the way.

"We're camping here. Prepare and eat your food, then go to sleep. Hinata and I will take first watch. Naruto and Lee will take second." Well Shikamru was as descriptive as a bee was pink. It just didn't happen. Who wanted to sleep anyways? I mean it was so over-rated. We usually went till we passed out of exhaustion. After he finished his little "speech", we all started making dinner. Food pills…..

"Yum"

"You back?"

"Duh. But ugh! That strange force got stronger for a while and I let my guard down. I was practically flung back here!"

"Whatever. I'm busy eating…go bug someone else."

"Thanks for your concern!"

"No prob." No one talked. No one moved. No one thought. Night was closing in fast so we a departed to our respected camp-sites.

Regular POD

"Lets go." Shikamru said motioning to Hinata, who looked back at Sakura.

"Ah." They raced off into the forest like shadows in the night. Hinata was slightly, just slightly, peeved at the fact that Tenten was originally supposed to go on first watch with Shikamaru.

"Hinata," Shikamaru began, "don't tell her."

"But why?! She's the only one who doesn't know!" Hinata fought back. She reused to go down without a fight!

"She's already worrying about enough. Sasuke being gone, Tsunade-sama being an acholic, and Narutos plus all of our depression is wearing down on her. We are the best around but, our target is an akatsuki member and he is dangerous. We want her at her best."

"Fine but as soon as we catch our target I'm telling her. She has every right to know!"

"Troublesome"

"Looks like we're all losing our cool. That's a phrase I missed."

"Hn."

"Ugh." I groaned as the sun shined brightly in my face. How could we need something so over-rated? It's not that hard to keep yourself warm or provide light. I got dressed quickly in my new ANBU uniform and wondered how quickly I could get this mission over with. As I got out of my tent I saw everyone else had also put on their new ANBU uniforms. We look so funny with our uniforms on. We once again were able to able eat our daily food pill. Just as we were about to leave, I was noting my inner wasn't there, we all swooshed around at an enormous chakra coming at us from the direction we were going to leave from. Then I saw it,

The sharingan

I couldn't see the face. Are you kidding me? Who the hell is our target?! I looked around and was surprised with what I saw. Everyone was calm but their eyes betrayed how flustered they really were. Tenten was putting up a very convincing mask now; though, and she was getting ready for a battle. Her hands were on her scrolls and she nudged Lee who followed suit. That team definitely improved a lot. Hinata was getting in her position and Shikamaru was moving his shadow out slowly. Sai, getting his paints out, had the look of "I'm bored, when can we go home, and whatever". I was nervous. Whichever Uchiha came out was gonna make this really hard, physically and emotionally. Then there he was, right in my face. Not like he knew it was me though 'because we had our masks on, but he seemed to have an idea. He's the S-class criminal that I used to fear, used to hate, used to despise, the one who ruined more than one life, the one who targeted my friends , and the one that just likes to bug me. The guy I hated simply because he did!!

"NOT ALLOWED!" I screamed out loud. That got em'. Everyone was looking' at me like I was some crazy lunatic. I mean I don't blame them. I just yelled "NOT ALLOWED" in Itachi Uchiha's face. Definatly a suicide mission…and he is…not doing anything? Now I am confused.

"So Sakura. We meet again." He said giving the Kakashi-sensei smile. Hand wave and all. You could hear Naruto give a small growl that was as ferocious as a lions.

"I-ta-chi…?"I said taking small steps back. I was looking in his eyes and realized it too late.

"Hello, Sakura-chan." I could see the Mongekyou come out and start to spin.

"SHIT!" I tried to turn but it was too late. I was in his world at his mercy, but he wasn't the one who was there with me.

Chuckle "well well, Sakura. Just as hopeless and weak as ever." That pissed me off. I was gonna send him to the moon, but I couldn't move- I felt my breath come in as fast as I felt the pain. I forgot it was a gen-jutsu.

"You just stabbed me!!" smirk "It hurts you as-"

"My my, such bad language."

"Is that really you, Sasuke?"

"Well who were you expecting? The tooth fairy."

So a lot happened in just one short chapter! lol I'm sorry they're so short. And well I have this friend and I have liked her cousin since like 7th grade (i'm in ninth ) and he knows. He told the whole family and his friends to keep a secret from me. Hes going to start going to my school like Friday so I'm going to try to update before then because i'm going to busy.

Review plz? because I fell a lot today T.T
