What If
Sakura's POV
"Sakura!" Itachi called after me.
"Just let me go." I ran to the river. When I saw Kisame there, I kept my distance.
"Hey." I didn't answer. "Hey, you! Pink-haired brat!" He yelled. I started singing instead.
Maybe this was meant to be, maybe now it should be me
I've been dreaming of this forever
But I'm feeling so confused
It's hard to see what's right, it's for you and I
And I don't know what to do
Or we stay together always is the promise we made
But suddenly it's not so clear and I'm being pulled both ways
And it's breaking my heart, tearing me apart, it's impossible to choose
What if I don't try, what if I do
Everything I've dreamed, try to run with me, if I win, what would I lose
How could I love you too, leave wondering what if
Things would never be the same
Maybe that's the price I pay, I've been waiting for this forever
It's close enough for me to touch
But if I don't go for it, I might always regret
But if we work this breaking up
Or we stay together always is the promise we made
But suddenly it's not so clear and I don't know what to say
And it's breaking my heart, tearing me apart, it's impossible to choose
What if I don't try, what if I do
Everything I've dreamed, try to run with me, if I win what would I lose
How could I love you too…leave wondering….what if…
I suddenly stopped when I heard someone come. "Do you really feel that way?" My brother asked.
"Maybe…I don't know." I hugged him. "I just want to know…why you lied." He hugged me back.
"It's too soon to tell you. It would break your heart so bad and I don't want to do that to you yet. In due time, I'll tell you." I just nodded. "How's mom and dad?" I didn't answer. "Dead?!" I nodded. "How?"
"You don't want to know." He glared at me.
"Who is it? Orochimaru? Leader? The hokage?" I shook my head then scoffed.
"Believe it or not, it was me." He froze there as I walked back.
"Why?" He asked in disbelief. "Why did you kill our parents, Sakura?!" Itachi pulled him away from me.
"Rei, look at her." I was trembling beyond belief.
"No, Itachi, it's alright. It's the same reason you guys are after me." I looked at Itachi.
"The pure heart crystal." I nodded.
"Look." I summoned my chakra to make a rasengan. However, it was black and purple. When I threw it, it acted like a black hole and sucked up the surrounding trees. "It happens mostly when I react severely against some things. When I saw you in the Akatsuki clothing, you have no idea how hard it was to refrain from killing you."
"Oh…" I took Itachi's hand and left.
"We need to get going. Konoha reinforcements are coming." Kisame packed his things and Itachi put me on his back after blindfolding me.
"Why the blindfold?" I asked.
"We need your pure heart crystal to stay pure." I took the blindfold off and snickered a bit.
"You guys were misinformed. I'm pure because I have an honest heart. I've killed people too. Like I've told Rei, I killed my parents." He froze as well.
"I'm just curious, why?" He asked.
"Truthfully, I don't remember." He left it at that. Few minutes later, we arrived at the hideout. "How is it we never find the hideout yet it's so close?" Itachi somewhat smiled at me.
"No offense but, Konoha ninjas over think it sometimes." Itachi covered me as we entered. "I'll take care of you so don't make any sudden movements and don't say anything. Understand?" We walked in. "Leader, we're back." We waited and a shadowy figure appeared.
"Ah, you have the girl." He touched my face and I hit him away. "Feisty." Itachi restrained me. "Let me give you a little advice, girl, be careful of what you do here." Pein whispered in my ear. I stopped and looked down. He was right. I was no longer in Konoha, nor do I have the same freedom as I once did in Konoha.
"Calm down." I tried to break out of Itachi's grasp but failed. After, Itachi led me to his room. "You'll be under my care from now on. Do not break any rules and you are not allowed outside of my room." I nodded. "I will be bringing in your meals for the next few days." He stated monotonously.
"Itachi…?" He stopped. "I know everything so you can go." He nodded and looked back, then left. I looked around to see if there was an escape able to be used. When I found a window, I opened it and jumped out. "I'm sorry Itachi, Rei." I started running toward the forest back to where we were. They would catch me soon so I had to act fast.

Sorry, this chapter was a bit shorter because it was more of a "what's going on and info scene." Anyways, hoped you all enjoyed it and as always, please review. However, don't say "please make it longer." My writing capacity isn't as…long…as others. Thanks again!
