Ch.1: Their Battles
Sakura's POV
I had asked permission to leave Kohona for a few days to go to another village in the fire kingdom.
I set up camp next to my parents' gravesite. I look back at the gravestone that had their name, date of birth and death, and whatever a family member had to say about them.
I wake up early because of a nightmare of my parents' death. Ugh, I hate it when I sleep because of that. I wonder how Seikatsu is doing. I never told anyone about that night not even Naruto or Kakashi after all the time we've been a team. I didn't even tell Sasuke that I knew what it was like to see your entire family, you entire life, slaughtered in front of you. I guess I got off lucky. I have my brother and my aunt. Still people that knew about my brother I had to protect him from them.
I look at my parents' gravestone and pull out the sake that I always bring them, "Hey mom dad it's been almost 10 years since you left me and your son. Did I ever get to tell you that?" I chuckle a little, "Of course I didn't but you guys got the son you always wanted. Seikatsu is training under me and he's so excited to be his sister's student. It surprised me, but I've been pushing him since he was six and a half as dad did with me. Sorry I haven't brought him here. It's just what am I supposed to say? Hey, this is where we buried mom and dad the people that died the day you were born. I 'm just not ready to tell him about our past and I don't think I'll ever be."
I touch the scar above my eye I got when I was still blind before Tsunade had agreed to do the surgery. I was only five when she did the surgery and I still have not found a way to show her how thankful I am.
"Tsunade is still training me to be a medic ninja and like your mom I know I'll be great."
I pull out a few things and set down a carved heart and a few red roses, "Happy anniversary I wonder what you two would do now. I wonder if I could have had more siblings. Like you use to say mom, 'When you look backwards that's when you need to realize that you should be trying to look forward but close enough for you can see.'"
Normal POV
Sakura was so sucked into what she was doing she didn't realize the life or death fight going on behind her. When she finally felt two chakras and a quickly fading one, she snapped up from sitting on her back legs. Without thinking, she ran the way towards the chakras with her pack already on her back. She was trusting her head like the one she always has when it didn't' come to Sasuke. Too bad, she didn't realize one of the chakras is Sasuke's.
When she reaches the area where she felt the two chakras what she saw surprised her. There stood Sasuke bloodied, in front of him on the other end of the open area stood Tobi (Just cuz its easier)smiling like a fool, and laying there a now dead Danzo the man that had betrayed his clan. Tobi seemed to be a different side from where he started at so that means that he must have been the one that had killed Danzo. She shrugged 'well good riddance to rubbish.'
She saw both the fighters that were left standing were badly hurt, but Sasuke is the one with the most wounds.
Sakura felt three more chakras of Sasuke's teammates coming fast and heard Sasuke mumble, "Shit. I just need a little bit more time."
All he didn't know was hiding in the bushes a few feet away from him was knelt his blue fairy that was ready to grant his wish and buy him some time.
Sakura left him to fight as she held the three off. She stood in front of them, but paid attention to Sasuke's chakra levels like her Shishou had taught her.
"What are you three doing here so close to Kohona?"
Sakura's walkie-talkie goes off, "Keep safe, I heard the Uchiha is in the area and if you can retrieve and bring back to Kohona unharmed. Along with his teammates maybe we can help them."
"Hai, Shishou," She removes her hand from her neck and easily caught a kunai that was thrown at her by a jealous Karin (not that Sakura knew why).
Using her own kunai plus the one that she caught Sakura blocked Suigestu's blade. She had to do a back flip because Suigetsu had been able to trip her, but she did a back flip and kicked Sui's blade after building chakra up in her feet secretly cracking it in all the right places. The spiky-haired boy, Juungo, charged at her she used leverage to throw Suigetsu at him sending them both into a tree. Karin charged at Sakura throwing random punches and kicks at the pink haired girl who easily avoided each punch her opponent with an upper cut hitting Karin high in to the air. Where she jumped up doing her own version of Sasuke's old, move Lion's Barrage using chakra into her kick making a small crater but still deep with Karin's body.
"Look we don't have to fight. Come back to the village there's no need to shed blood," Sakura looked their way with a hand out, "If you check I made sure not to do any major damage just enough to fight another." They nodded showing they were listening, "Danzo is gone and the other elders and my Shishou are understanding without him trying to control them. Juungo we can help you with the other personality. Karin there's a lot we can teach you on healing. Ummm… I don't know about you Sui I don't know much about you and in truth from what we've gathered on you out of all of you I don't want to know anything."
Sakura realized he didn't like the nickname that she had given him when he went to hit her.
Again, she avoided it until he spotted a crack forming in his sword, "What the hell? When did this crack form?" Sakura chuckled a little bit, "You didn't' notice all the chakra infused attacks I used. If you come to Kohona I can introduce you to the best blacksmith that I know."
Sakura sighed and walked away keeping in mind that she needed to stay calm and collected.
That's when her still enhanced hearing heard Sasuke grunt and his breathing seemed to become worse. The scent of blood also seemed to increase. She needed to hurry this was her mission. That's why she ran this far in 11 hours instead of 2 days it'd been from going between walking, running, and resting at night.
If you're wondering what she did so she could already easily sense chakras she had made a concoction to help her sense chakras even when they're so far away.
"Shit," She looks to where Sasuke is, "Sorry that you can't' move at the moment I might have gone a little overboard when I used my chakra attacks than I thought I did."
Sakura left a cursing Sui and a confused Karin and Juungo looking at each other and struggling to get up then them sighs their teammate will never change but when they saw that girl they were surprised when Suigetsu had went quiet.
Quietly Karin looked at Juungo and asked him, "Do you think she is someone the reason why Sasuke is changing and wants to go back to Kohona?"
Back to Sasuke's Fight:
He just used chidori with his sword just barely nicking Toni's side.
"Seems your slowing down," before Tobi could finish he was cut off when a fish met his face sending him flying back a good twenty or so feet or even yards.
When Sasuke slumped relieved that someone had saved him well wishing to see a certain someone, "Now I can see Sakura. If she hates me I'll bet even if I look like a fool. If she's in love with someone else well I hope she takes my apology."
He had not realized that he said that out loud or that the person that saved him was his secret love, well not so secret.
To cut him from his dark thoughts of if Sakura had moved on what he'd do to himself warm hands start to heal his worse wounds and a familiar voice, "Dang he's getting up sooner than I thought."
He felt warmth from the female that was kneeling above him as she healed him.
"Sakura…?"
He had no idea why he said her name, but he gets an answer from her anyways.
"Yes, Sasuke it's me," he tries to get up to see her, "No Sasuke don't' move save what energy you have for the enemy. You have to win this fight."
He simply nods but just barely that she almost didn't see it and let her heal him when she heard the man move before he can stick she keeps her hand healing well her other one hits the ground sending thousands so little shockwaves hoping that it'd slow Tobi down and if she's lucky catch him off guard. What would you know guess luck was on her side because he thought that she was weak, even after hitting him so far, and was not worth his time?
Sasuke was healed enough in his terms, but not Sakura's.
That's where if goes blank no one truly knows what happened, but that isn't completely true because she's just afraid. Who is this person? Well its Sakura and she can tell you what happened and what happened after?
Pyro: He-he so what do you think it's a bit longer than I would have liked or maybe it's a bit to short for my liking really I don't' know. Uppps. I started to ramble. Anyways Sakura can you speak for my stumbling and idiotic words.
Sakura: One I would love to and two you're no idiotic. So Please Review and tell us what you think. Sasuke can you finish I'm so tired?
Sasuke: Who are you? Ummm… Oh yeah Pyro does not own Naruto.
Pyro: I hope you enjoyed this chapter maybe I'll add more
Sakura: She will she has a whole notebook that was supposed to be a one shot but she didn't' like how long it turned out
Pyro: Traitor
