IIII Rain
She knew she didn't belong here. Surrounded by missing nins and the worst most feared criminals, Sakura couldn't help but feel out of her element. The man in front of her, the one standing, speaking to everyone, intimidated her, although she'd never admit it. His mere looks sent shivers down her spine.
He was tall, his skin pale. His hair was messy, in a stylish kind of way though, much like her beloved jinchuriki's, although it was a fiery orange color. His many piercings along his nose, mouth, and ears just added to the threatening appearance. His eyes are what was most astounding to her, he had two huge violet rinnigans.
In all honesty most people in this room were a little abnormal, she noticed as her eyes scanned the escape-proof room. There was gender confused blondie across from her and a talking venus fly trap across the room, not to mention the infamous sadistic clan-killing all-together-freaking-terrifying Uchia who was sitting ever so stoticly next to a giant mutant jaws. How can all these interesting people all come together for something so evil?
Sakura was deep in thought as the man introduced her to the members. She didn't even hear the other members names. she already knew all of them anyway. The blonde one was deidara, bomb specialists, the gray haired one was hidan, he was a jashinists, a religon she still hated, then the sharinganed man was Itachi Uchia, famous Konaha missing-nin. There was zetsu, konan, Kisame, kakazu, tobi, and sasori. Wait, Sasori? "What the hell?" She shouted looking straight at him "I thought you were dead?" Pein looked annoyed at her interrupting him, he was a no none sense kind of guy, she knew that much.
Sasori simply sighed with a closed eyed with if-i-have-to-explain-this-to-one-more-person expression on his face. His brown eyes opened "I used a regeneration justu. Somewhat like that of orochimaru's but I have my orignal body instead of someone else's. So techinicly I'm a sixteen now, like I was before, not far from you am I?" He said bored, picking at his nail-polish. She shook her head "I'm twenty-one now, you've been gone awhile. I thought I'd killed you for good, I was mistaken obviously." Her sigh was an annoyed one. Sasori nodded "Never underestimate us, foolish girl." Sakura's hands clenched into fists, 'if he says one more thing!' the chakara flowing into her fists was so strong you could see it.
"Everyone! that was all i had to say, even though I was rudely interrupted-" A boisterous glare went Sakura's way "- you may go. But I must remind you, Be kind to Sakura-san, for the next few months, not only to mention she is the Tsundae's apprentice, but she's also she's our allie, and you never want your allie to hate you. even though I'm sure she already does." Pein shook his head at the undomesticated boys, and Konan led Sakura out of the room, leading her down the maze-like halls to yet another long secluded one.
There were about four or five different doors in said hallway and As she opened one of said doors she explained "This is your living quarters, You have a bed, a desk, a closet, etc. Your cloak is folded up on the bed, your expected to wear it at all times, you have other clothes in your closet, I hope I got your size right, I did my best when shopping but I had no clue who would be coming so there's a variety of sizes, sorry." She gave her an apologetic look. Sakura walked in the room, it was mostly black, with clay and dirt showing thourgh it's terrible paint job, no windows (She made the assumption that they were underground) , and a make-shift door leading to the closet. "The bathroom's down the hall, I'll leave you alone for now but dinners at six, freshen up and please come. I told the boys I'd castrate them if they didn't behave themselves so I would hate to waste that threat." Konan made a small laugh and proceeded to close the door and to leave her alone.
Sakura checked out the closet,seeing an ocean of black, She pulled out a sleeveless fishnet shirt, a black tank top and black capris, she also grabbed one of the towels that were up on the top shelf of her closet, she grabed her back and took out her cherry scented shampoo and conditioner and her strawberry body wash. She needed a shower.
As she proceeded to the bathroom she was happy she hadn't ran into any akatsuki, She didn't like being here, not one bit. Sakura closed the door to the bathroom and locked it, although she was sure a lock wouldn't stop one of them, if they really wanted in. A scenario played though her head and she experienced horrified body-shaking shiver as she vowed to never think such... thoughts again.
About fifteen minutes later she came out, unharmed, feeling strange in her new attire. She ran her fingers through her wet hair, shaking out the excess water. She spotted someone in the hall and hurried into her room, not wanting to speak to anyone, for she knew her voice would betray her, and show them she'd been weeping.
Of all people Tsundae-shishou could have sent her it was an honor That the hokage had picked her with up most trust and not even a second thought, but why not someone else? Although it was a great honor to protect the village in this way it meant that she had to live with the most notorious group of villains till this thing was over and , another shiver was sent down her spine, actually be civil to them. Yuck!
She looked at the small clock on the bedside table and sighed. 6:12 it read. She jabbed the cloak with one finger, making sure there was no ninja killing jutsu placed upon it, and picked up the thing with utter disgust. She slid it on her tiny frame with regret, feeling as if these colours betrayed everything she believed in (and they did). It was about a size to small and fit her rather tightly,she decided not to zip it up and leave her simple black clothing showing, like the other members had been in the meeting room earlier.
Sakura walked out of the room and to the dining room, which took her ten minutes to find. when she finally did enter she was shocked by what she found. They looked like normally people, discussing normally things, joking around, fighting like brothers, they looked like family.
Konan smirked "Your late Sakura-chan. Deidara already took your dessert. " Deidara reddened as attention was drawn to him stuffing the biggest piece of chocolate cake in his mouth. They all laughed at him, well all but Itachi and Pein, his face was smeared in chocolate. Sakura bit her lip to keep her composure. Right now they didn't seem like murderers, just a bunch of boys, who were gooffing off together. She took her seat, to the right of Konan and the left of Deidara, and just listened to them, the cheesy jokes and all, occasionaly taking a bite of the food in front of her.
Once dinner was over all the men left, leaving Konan and Sakura to clean up after them. Sakura reluctantly picked the dishes up of the table looking across at Konan, whom was curios "So, how did you like your first dinner with us? How did you like the boys? I told them to use there manners today but no one ever listens to me! You think they'd have more respect for their leader's g-"she stopped herself trying to not reveal any information, although sakura knew clear as day as to what she was going to say.
"You and Pein, huh?" She smirked. Konan blushed "Anyone how did you like the boys? I consider them like my own sons, they act like im their mother, although they'd never admit it, especially Tobi-chan, bless his heart I don't know how he got into a place like this..." Sakura smiled, thinking trying to come up with something to tell the sweet woman
"They're...something alright. " konan laughed "They are hard to describe, one minute they're ready to cut your throat and the next they act like a bunch of teenagers, which they aren't, Deidara is the youngest and he's just turned twenty-two recently, Pein thinks they need to act their age, I find them quite amusing. " Sakura nodded "Amusing? that's not quite the word I had in mind."
She placed the dishes in the washer, pressed start and began to walk off "Konan-san, where can I train?" Konan pointed to a sliding glass door a few feet away from the kitchen, " those are our indoor training grounds, one of the boys might be out there though, I wouldn't interfere with them." Sakura nodded in her head in response although she ignored her warning and opened the door, it was like it's own little forest, the only way she knew she were inside was the fact that it wasn't raining, or cold. It was like a forest in konaha, it was like home. It made her smile, really smile instead of the fake one she'd been using all night.
"Haruno." She heard her last name muttered in a quiet voice and turned to see an ever Stoic Uchia "Taijustu only." She tilted her head, like a confused puppy "Are you trying, in some Uchia non-talkitive way , to say that you would like to spare?" She got one nod in response."Why would you want to spar me?" she asked once more confused by the unsociable clan-killing murderous physo. "You were on my foolish brother's genin team, and he seemed to be quite fond of you, Plus you are Tsundae's apprentice, therefore I figured you wouldn't be that bad of a opponent, plus Deidara wont fight by my rules and keeps trying to blow me up."
If Kisame were here he would've cried at the amount of words that Itachi had just said so uncharelisticly. (A/N: Yes, I know that wasn't an itachi answer but you try putting all that into monosyllables) She shrugged and nodded, agreeing to the fight. What was the worst that could happen? He had the home field advantage, he knew this place like the back of her hand, but if she got in trouble she would just use her secret weapon and she was sure she'd be fine, well not entirely sure. "I promise not to hurt you too bad." The sarcasm was evident in her voice, if she got the chance she would.
They began fighting immediately, she through a punch in his direction making full contact with a puff of smoke, she cursed blatantly. He was behind her in an instant and she turned as fast as she could to kick him firmly in the jugular but as good as she was Sakura delayed for one second, and that second was her downfall. His fist collided with her ivory cheek, shoving her against the giant tree trunk behind her, breaking both the tree and her.
"Stop!" There was a yell heard throughout the whole forest. A man's yell. Pein came upon the two. He glared at Itachi, "what did I tell you not merely a hour ago! she's your allie! My God!" Pein said the last part before realizing that that he was taking his own name in vain. Sakura stood up "We-we were just sparing." Her voice was broken and defeated. She couldn't believe that skinny white boy could punch that hard. She sent Itachi a glare and then looked back at Pein
"It was nothing serious honestly." She bent down in a bow that every second of said bow, she wanted to rip one of the trees out of the ground and kill herself with it. Pein raised an eyebrow, eyeing Itachi "Is that true Uchia." Itachi nodded "Hn." was the only sound he made. Pein made a Curt nod "Very well then, " he looked at Itachi and smirked slightly "Just don't kill her, Konaha probley wouldn't want us to be their allies if you did." after his joke he turned and walked back out, sliding the glass door shut slowly. When he was out of sight Itachi turned to her once more "I'm going to bed." He sighed,, and with no further explanation he stalked off too, leaving an exhausted Sakura, who's jaw hurt and whom also had one hell of a day, and she decided to take Itachi's course of action.
