Hello there~ Here is the second rewrite!
NOTE: When I say the person is Tobi..it means he has that lighter tone. When I say it's Madara…it's the deep manly voice. For Zetsu…bold is his darker side speaking. Regular text will be his lighter side. If bold and italicized…both sides speaking.
Rewritten: Chapter 2
It was quiet for a few minutes, until Sakura could no longer take the silence."Well? Are you all just going to stare or what? And I thought I killed you!" she yelled the last sentence, as she pointed at a very familiar, living, breathing face.
"Forbidden jutsu...and you didn't kill me off entirely." Sasori dully responded. Sakura just huffed.
"What the fuck is someone like her doing here? She looks like some fucking weak little slut or whatever." A white haired man said. Sakura just smiled sweetly at the guy, while one of her hands grabbed the closest thing to her, which was a table, and threw it towards the guy. It hit him, causing him to fall back…along with the people sitting next to him, which was a guy with a mask covering half his face and another guy in a mask which covered his whole face, but had a little peephole for one eye.
"How's that for weak, you ass! I'll crush your bones and turn them to dust!"
"You little bitch!" growled the man, as he stood up.
"Bring it on old man!" Sakura yelled, as she got in a fighting stance.
"Enough! I did NOT call you all here just to argue with each other! There will be a new member in this organization, and this is she. Haruno, Sakura. She will be our medic. You'd be best to treat her with respect, for she is my sister." And just like that, the room was dead silent. It was so silent that you'd be able to hear someone, a few seats away, breathing. The silence didn't last long though. It was finally broken by the sound of a body hitting the ground and then different voices yelling out "WHAT (un)?"
"Itachi, please bring her to her room." Pein stated, while staring at her unconscious body on the floor. Pinching the bridge of his nose, he could already feel a headache coming. As Itachi stood up, the room got silent once more. They watched as he picked the girl up and walked out of the room. The moment the door closed, the uproar started once more. With a sigh, he glanced at the pink haired woman and started towards her room.
A FEW HOURS LATER
Sakura's eyes started to flutter open, but before they could fully open, she squeezed her eyes shut and mumbled a few words. After a few seconds, she squinted one eye open and saw an amused Konan staring down at her, alongside Pein. Squeezing her eyes shut once more, she let out a groan and rolled on to her stomach.
"Oh come on, Sakura-chan. We're not that bad..." Konan said.
Sakura groaned once more, lifted her head from her pillow and turned to look at the two, before she spoke. "...Am I the only one who sees what's wrong with that statement?"
Konan just rolled her eyes, while Pein scoffed. A few minutes of silence passed by, until Sakura jumped on top of her bed and pointed at Pein, yelling out "YOU! I don't know what is going on here, but last time I checked, I had NO siblings!"
Letting out a sigh, Pein closed his eyes for a few seconds then opened them back up and took a seat on Sakura's bed. He then looked up at her and asked "Mind if I sit here?"
Sakura just blinked a few times before replying, "Uh...no...I don't." as she sat down beside him, though not so close, Pein dismissed Konan, who left with a nod. Hearing the door close, Sakura looked towards Pein.
"Uh...believe it or not, but we're related. You were originally born in Amegakure. You really are a Haruno though...as am I. The Haruno clan is originally from Amegakure...and we have a bloodline limit. The Rinnegan, which I obviously have, gives us the mastery over all he six forms of chakra nature manipulation (AN: to be honest, I'm uncertain of this. Please tell me if I'm wrong.). It is said, that the one who wields the rinnegan is like a god. And for that reason alone, many feared our clan...and because of that fear, different villages teamed together, with Konoha as their leader, to rid this world of the Haruno clan. Many lives were lost...but those villages came out victorious. What they didn't know though...was that some of the Harunos went into hiding before they even arrived. You were about 2 years old during that time, and I was 10. We were hiding in a small room below our house; while our parents went out to fight...they didn't make it. Once the fight was over...we traveled different places for a while, until a rogue ninja tried to kill you. Out of fear, I erased your memory with a forbidden jutsu, and left you at the last place that I would ever want you to be at...but I knew that they would keep you safe...I didn't have to worry about you getting the rinnegan because it happens only once a century when a female of the Haruno clan would get it...our cousin, Meya, already had it. Anyway...I didn't leave you alone entirely. I would still drop by every once in a while to check up on you...though I had to keep my identity a secret. You know those birthdays and Christmas presents that would be left at your windowsill...those were from me. They let you keep your surname for some reason that I am unaware of though…they probably thought everyone forgot about the Harunos. Anyway...thats enough of my small introduction to our family...questions?" Pein ended, while looking towards Sakura.
Breathing hard, eyes wide open, Sakura stared at the floor. "Ah-...I-...Wh-Wha? This all so much to digest...oh man...what the fuck? My current memories are all just from some fake family? A civilian family at that too…well I was always a bit suspicious on that part. And I used to think that those presents were from that bastard, Sasuke, too...well, I did treasure them because I had a mad crush on him. 'Had' being the key word. S-So...who is still alive?...in o-our clan, I mean."
"Hm...I don't know. The remaining members have all migrated to different countries. A few remain in Ame, but they are just branch members." Pein answered, nonchalantly.
"Are we also branch members?"
"No...we were the head family. I was next in line to be clan head, actually." Pein chuckled, "Harunos were never really the agressive type. We were more of the peace-keeping type. "
Sakura scoffed. "What happened to you?" She pointedly stared at him, as if accusing him of something. He just rolled his eyes. "I grew up with the wrong crowd. I'll tell you a secret...I didn't make this organization, but I am one of the first members. The real leader is-"
"Telling secrets Leader-sama?~" chimed in a voice, that came skipping into the room.
"Is that guy." Pein finished, while pointing towards the being that was standing in the middle of the room.
"What? A childish lollipopped faced weirdo guy? Are you kidding me! You mean to tell me," Sakura started, while walking towards the guy, "that a group of S-classed criminals are being run by this..."
"Tobi is Tobi!" the guy piped in.
"This Tobi guy?" Sakura used her hands to show Tobi, as if presenting him.
"Awww...Tobi thinks Sakura-chan is so cruel." sulked Tobi. Pein just smirked while looking at Tobi. "Should I tell her? Or do you want to do it yourself?"
"Doesn't matter...as long as she can keep a secret." said a deep voice, that came from the person standing next to Sakura, who happened to be Tobi. Freaked out of her mind, Sakura jumped away from 'Tobi', while yelling out, "Who are you and what have you done to the childish boy slash grown-up with the childish voice?"
The deep voice chuckled. "Silly Sakura-chan..." the deep voice continued. "Onii-san is telling the truth by the way"
Sakura almost choked on her spit, while Pein scoffed. "O-Onii-san? Y-You're a Ha-"
"He's just being an idiot, Sakura-chan. We're not related to him. He's actually an Uchiha."
"U-Uchi-"
"Hmph...you're no fun, Onii-san." the deep voice replied, while crossing his arms over his chest.
"Shutup Madara." At that point, Sakura could no longer handle what she was hearing, her eyes rolled to the back of her head, as she fell backwards, while whispering a faint "M-Madara..."
"Aww...look what you did to Sakura-chan." Tobi said. Pein just rolled his eyes, once again, as he got off the bed to pick up Sakura from the floor and put her back in her bed. Once safely tucked in, Pein turned to Madara.
"It's your fault, you old fart...you just had to call me 'Onii-san.'"
"Wahh...how can you say that to the person who practically raised you?" Tobi whined, a bit too loudly. Pein just hissed and hit him on the head, while proceeding to drag him out of the room and closing the door behind him, but not before giving one last look at Sakura and whispering, "Sleep well, Sakura."
AT THE KONOHA GATE
The last three to arrive were Hinata, Neji, and Shikamaru.
"Yo! You are the last three people I would expect to be late! What happened?" Naruto asked in his loud voice.
"We got held back by the Hokage...due to some new instructions on this mission." Neji said.
"We are to bring back Haruno, Sakura alive." Shikamaru finished.
"What? We have to bring back Forehead alive even after what she did? This is unbelievable!" Ino screeched out, while Naruto let out a sigh of relief.
"W-Well n-no-ne of th-this wou-ould have happened i-if someo-one didn't do someth-thing so...s-so...so..." Hinata started, while she started shaking. Naruto then went by her side.
"Hinata-chan...what's wrong? Are you okay?" he asked, as he grabbed her hand. Hinata then calmed down a bit, as she got the courage to speak. She looked up towards the group and took one step away from Naruto.
"N-None of th-this would've ha-happened if...if Yamanaka-san hadn't been such a backstabbing, unworthy, heartless, evil, conniving little PIG!" Hinata yelled out...causing eyes to widen and jaws to drop.
"H-Hinata-chan? What-" Naruto asked, as he carefully approached her. Hinata then whirled around, facing Naruto, with her eyes blazing with fury, causing him to take a step back.
"What happened? I'll tell you what happened!" she started, as she poked Naruto in the chest three times. "I'll tell you all what happened! I don't know the whole story, but Little Miss Piggy over here, did such a sin, that she does not deserve to be a ninja! During the meeting with the Hokage earlier, she used her mind-control...body control thing...on me, Neji-nii-san, and Shikamaru-san...to say what we said earlier at meeting...and none of that was true! But you all believed it and missed the little details...like how Ino never looked up from Sasuke's shoulder, how I didn't stutter during my turn, etc. etc.! Are you all so blind? What is wrong with you all? You do not deserve to be her friend AND you do NOT deserve to be ninjas! You are ALL PA-" Hinata was cut off from what she was saying, when she felt a hand on her shoulder. When she looked to see who it was, she saw Neji. He was telling her to stop and calm down. When she realized her outburst, she got red in the face really fast, which caused Shikamaru to chuckle. She turned towards the group again, who all seemed to be glaring at Ino, then she spoke again.
"A-Ah…g-gomen fo-for my o-outburst. I-I may n-not have known Sa-Sakura-chan very well...b-but I knew her well e-enough that sh-she would n-never do any of th-those things. I-It's a sha-ame that you g-guys di-idn't know her a-as well as y-you th-thought you d-did...especially y-you, Naruto-kun..." she finished as she went to stand next to Neji.
It was quiet for a few minutes, until Shikamaru spoke up. "Well...let's not waste any more time on your mistakes. We have a mission, and if you guys really do regret your actions, then you'll do your best to succeed on this mission...Sakura was never depressed by the way. In fact, she was happy for Sasuke and Ino. Now, I don't know what happened on the honeymoon, but you changed, Ino. You guys used to be best friends, but now you're out and trying to destroy her life. Anyway, enough with the sulking...let's move on out."
Once they all started heading out, Naruto held Hinata back before she could leave. "Hinata-chan...I'm...I'm so sorry." his voice cracked. He sounded so broken, that Hinata felt like she was also feeling the exact same pain that he felt. Hinata let out a small smile as she cupped his face and made him look at her. She also used her thumbs to wipe away his tears. "Don't apologize to me, Naruto-kun...you have to apologize to her. We will find her, and you will get your chance...and she'll forgive you, I assure you."
Naruto just nodded and closed his eyes for a few moments.
WITH SAKURA
Sakura woke up with a headache. She sat up from the bed slowly as she held her head with one hand. "Ugh...did I faint again? How many times has that happened already?...What hap-...oh yeah. Siblings with Pein guy...Haruno clan slaughtered then spread out. Pein not real leader. Tobi...not real name. Madara is leader, but known as Tobi...childish person. Hm...what else...I am now an Akatsuki member. Now what?"
Hearing knocks coming from her door, she replied with a small "Enter." The door opened up to reveal Pein and Konan walking in.
"Ah...you're awake, Sakura. Today I will introduce you with the other members and split you up into teams. Konan here will help you with something...I don't know. That is all." But before Pein was completely out the door, he added, "Oh, and here. Wear this...on your right pinky.", as he tossed a small object to her.
Catching it, she examined the ring as she put it on. It looked just like the ones everyone was practically wearing, and it seemed that hers had the engraving of the word 'Hime' on hers. "What the fuck? Hime?", Sakura thought, as she glared at the ring. Noticing her glare, Konan cut her thoughts off by asking, "Is everything alright, Sakura-chan?"
Sighing, Sakura replied,"Konan-san."
"No need to add '-san', 'Konan' alone is just fine." Konan smiled, while Sakura just nodded. "Now here are some old clothes of mine that might fit you…you can go shopping at some village nearby, once you've settled. Oh, and here's a small traditional Akatsuki cloak that seems just your size, and a straw hat. Personally, I think these are ugly and unnecessary, but hey, everyone wears them...to keep their identity a secret, of course...their face I mean. Anyway...why don't you go take a shower and get dressed; bathroom is over there; while I sit here and wait for you...well, I'm going to go get your other things first, but I'll probably be here by the time you finish. Now go and get." Konan finished, as she walked out of the room and closed the door behind her.
As Sakura got up, she eyed the clothing articles in her hand. Letting out a sigh, she headed towards the bathroom that was connected to her room. Once she finished and left the bathroom, she saw Konan already sitting on her bed, waiting for her.
"Oh great! You're done. Anyway, here are your weapons and such…well, basically everything you had when Itachi and Kisame found you. Anyway, put on your ring and cloak, and follow me. Pein just has to…oh wait, he already told you. Well then…let's go." Konan said, as she got off the bed and towards the door.
Sakura just blinked once, and replied "Uh…yeah."
Once they got to the meeting room, the only person in it, at the moment, was Pein. He was sitting at the main table. Konan went and took the seat on his right, while Sakura took the one on his left. She noticed that the tables were set up in an upside down 'U'. She also noticed that there were 4 empty chairs aligned in front of her, as did Konan. After a few more minutes of waiting, the other members began filing in. Once everyone was there, Pein started.
"As you all know…Sakura is now our newest member. And now the teams are uneven, so…new teams will be assigned. Zetsu you will be alone, you are our spy anyway, and you can manage on your own, right?"
"Hai, Leader-sama." he replied. Sakura repressed to urge to shiver from the sound of his voice…or voices.
"Okay…Sasori and Deidara are still partners…as are Hidan and Kakuzu. Now…Kisame…you will be paired with Tobi…so Sakura is with Itachi."
"WHAT?" two voiced yelled out.
"Leader-sama…what did I do wrong to you? Whatever it is…I'm sorry! Make me do something terrible! Skin me! Something! Just don't pair me up with him!" Kisame yelled and pleaded.
"O-Onii...Leader…okay, I'm not sure how to address you, but whatever. ANYWAY…why are you pairing me up with this…this…weasel!" Sakura screamed, causing some to wince…though they did snicker when they heard her call him 'weasel.' Only to shut up when Itachi glared at them. "This must be a punishment or something! Okay…yeah…I stole candy and cookies from little kids…but I couldn't help it! I was in a bad mood! I'm sorry okay! Just don't pair me with him! Please! I'm begging you! I'll go on my knees and beg! Pair me up with Sharky over there instead, or that…that Tobi thing!"
" Hey kid, how 'bout you go on your fucking knees in front of me." Hidan smirked. A mili-second later, a kunai hit his table. When Hidan looked at it, he noticed that it was close to going through the table and hitting him in his jewels. He gulped and started sweating, as he looked at Pein, who was glaring at him. He laughed nervously.
"E-ehe…i-it was j-just a fucking j-joke le-leader-sa-sama." But too bad for him, because Pein wasn't amused. The other members just snickered at him. Though, Sakura seemed to not have paid any mind to me, as she was too focused on getting a new partner.
With a sigh, Pein held a hand up, signaling her to shut up. "Sakura…I can't do that. Just deal with it. Dismissed."
"Bu-But-"
"Dismissed, Sakura." he said, as he pinched the bridge of his nose. Sakura just 'hmph'd before she left the room with the other members. Once the door closed, Konan, who remained, chuckled.
"Little sisters, eh?"
"Don't start Konan…" Pein groaned.
