Authors note: Okay I get how some of you didn't get the fact that the last chapter was prologue I forgot to write it and YES I CANT SPELL YOU SON OF A B LALEK! Ok yes this is really where the story begins hope you understand how the prologue ties in. So here goes chapter one.
Disclaimer: If I owned Naruto I'd be rich and instead if writing in fan fiction I would be writing the show XD
The release jutsu had been underway for three hours and it was draining out all of Sakura's chakra. She had to do this, though, if she wanted to get closer to Itachi and eventually
Sasuke. She felt bad this could have been Naruto. But she would NEVER let them harm Naruto. Actually, she had been fighting it, but she still had some feelings for Naruto. The
jinchuriki they had captured was for Tobi. Akatsuki had asked if she had wanted it because she had been the one to capture it, but she had flatly said "No." Although, she was
apart of Akatsuki she didn't want to get to attached to this group. After what seemed like seven more hours they got rid of the last of the jinchuriki soul. Everyone was exhausted.
Sakura took advantage of the situation and went to go talk to Itachi. Itachi seemed like he was the only one wasn't panting after the ritual. Even though he was Sasuke's worst
enemy Sakura idolized what a great shinobi he was and respected his way of the ninja. For someone who was around 20 he sure looked old. All the stress of Akatsuki missions
could be seen on his face. It sagged with wrinkles and there was a scar (from the last mission) on his right cheek exaggerating the size of his nose. " Oh haiyo Itachi-san how's that
scar? Wish for me to heal it again?" "How close were you to him?" "What Itachi-san?" " Sasuke. I'm not that stupid, Sakura. What were your true intentions for joining Akatsuki?
If you were trying to get information on my brother from me…" " No your wrong! Sasuke was just a teammate, nothing more, a milestone of my past in Konoha." An angry
Sakura replied. But Itachi wasn't going to give up. "If you're so 'distanced' from Konoha why won't you allow us to cross out the hidden leaf symbol on your forehead protector?"
Sakura put on a fake smile… the things she had to please these people to achieve her goal... "OH SILLY! If that's why you're so grumpy take my forehead protector and scratch
the leaf to your heart's content." She took off her forehead protector and handed it to Itachi. For what seemed like hours he looked at the forehead protector and handed it back to
her. "In order to let go of your village you must cross it out yourself and I shall be your witness." With that he handed her a kunai and said, "Begin!"
