Disclaimer:shuddering: I do not own Naruto, or anything else really cool. Now excuse me while I kill the Hypno frog from futurama for hypnotizing me.
ON FORTH TO NARUTO LAND.
One year later. Lets just say, the chuunin exams are only held for the Gennin that were Gennin for a year, so they have experience.

Chapter 3: The Manipulation
A cry of pain.
A whimper.
A horrified gasp.
A crack.
Her eyes were wide open, and she could no longer feel the pain. Her left wrist was taken roughly in his hand, and the bone cracked. She flinched slightly. Her whole body was numb, as she looked into those red eyes.
Those familiar red eyes
"Tsukiyomi"
She gasped, as she entered a world of black and white.
"For the next Seventy-eight hours you will witness your village betraying you" His voice echoed around the strange world.
She watched as a Katana was thrust deep into her stomach and she gagged.
'This isn't real' She tried to tell herself. But she knew it to be true, just by watching her chakra holes being sealed off by the leader of the Hyuuga clan. 'But why can't I stop it...?' Her eyes clenched shut, her teeth gritted in pain. 'I don't understand...'
He stared at the prone form of Haruno Sakura shaking on the floor, clutching her head. He had to do this. It was the only way, she will understand. Someday.
Kakashi stood in front of the Third Hokage, Sasuke on his left, Naruto on his right. For once, his tiny orange book wasn't out for all to see. His arms were crossed across his chest and he stared at the hokage, waiting for him to speak.
The squad of ANBU that came to help stood directly behind the Hokage and the elders, Danzo, Mitokado Homura, and Utatane Koharu stood at the right side of the room staring at Kakashi intently.
Morino Ibiki, Mitarashi Anko, and Shiranui Genma stood across from the elders.
The Sandaime leaned forward on his desk, his fingers intertwined and his chin resting lazily on top. "Explain" he snapped, taking a deep breath.
"Uchiha Itachi seems to be back for the Haruno heir." Kakashi said it so blandly, do stoically the Hokage had to do a double take.
The Jounins in the room froze. Unbelieving.
"Haruno?" Naruto questioned, "What's a Haruno?"
Sasuke rolled his eyes, "Don't you know anything about any of the clans in Konoha? We learned about them at the academy." He exclaimed. "Dobe."
The blond ignored him, "But he wasn't after a Haruno! He was after Sakura-chan!" He scratched his head in confusion.
"Naruto!" Kakashi warned, his voice harsh.
The Sandaime leaned back in his chair, "There is something you should know. I am sure you heard of the Haruno clan massacre, took place exactly one year after the Uchiha clan massacre. Sakura is Haruno Sakura. The last remaining member of the Haruno clan. Her clan was killed by Uchiha Itachi. He couldn't kill her for unknown reasons so he settled for sealing her bloodline limit in, and her other...chakra"
Silence.
The expression silence is deafening was an understatement. Everyone stared at each other, unsure as to how to react. Naruto blinked, his mouth slack and turned his head to look at the Uchiha, who had his fists clenched.
The elders narrowed their eyes in disapproval. The Jounin in the room stared ahead of themselves, the information making their wheels turn.
"Sasuke-" Naruto started,
"Why does he want her, dammit!" Sasuke yelled out, "She is a weak girl! She doesn't know anything!"
"Sasuke." Kakashi warned, then sighed in exasperation, "didn't you listen to anything Hokage-san just said?"
"I don't believe you" Sasuke said stubbornly, "She isn't strong. I've seen her in battle. She's just a weak and annoying girl that doesn't deserve to be a ninja!"
Kakashi's eyes flashed. "Sasuke, if she was weak, why wouldn't she just out right hate you because your brother killed her future? Why would I be teaching someone if I thought that person had no talent? You know nothing about her."
Sasuke rolled his eyes, "Hn"
The Hokage stood up, and addressed the ANBU squad, "Find any clues you can about the where abouts of the Akatsuki. We cannot let them take control of the Shiyuki!"
"Hai Hokage-sama"
He turned to the Four Jounin elites in the room, "be on guard at all times. You never know when the Akatsuki will attack if they harvest the power of the Haruno clan's bloodline."
Genma placed his trademark senbon in between his lips, and smirked. "Will do, Hokage-sama"
Anko rolled her eyes, and nodded slightly, Ibiki gave a nod , and the three elites disappeared in a puff of smoke.
The Hokage addressed the two new Gennins, "I will assign another Gennin to your team. There is nothing we can do for Sakura right now."
Naruto looked like he was going to say something but Kakashi cut him off.
"Hai, Hokage-sama" The squad leader of team seven forcefully pushed his two subordinates out of the office.
"Hokage-sama" Danzo started, "I told you, you should of killed the girl and Konoha could of avoided this mess."
"I know, Danzo-kun." The Hokage sighed, "she's the last of the Haruno clan. If we killed her another clan genocide would take place."
The room glowed softly, the lantern turned on low. It was cold, and the silence in the room was noticeable when days prior screams can be heard throughout the entire complex. The dark haired man with the red eyes stared down at the girl that caused him so much trouble, but he thinks he finally got through to her.
"Who's your master?" Itachis voice was monotone.
"You are, Itachi-san." The twelve year old said softly.
"who are your enemies?" He inquired.
"Konoha is, Itachi-san"
"Why?"
"My home village betrayed me." She looked straight ahead into his eyes.
"Good, very good"
"Thank you, Itachi-san"
"Get some rest, you wont be getting a lot when we start tomorrow. Let your...wounds heal." his eyes appraised her small form, noting the blood sticking to her shirt like glue.
"Yes, Itachi-san"
The door closed to her cell, it shut with a clang.
She closed her foggy emerald eyes, and winced in pain. The only part of her body she could feel was her right eye, but that was starting to numb also. She opened her eyes again and stared at the ceiling. She brought her hand up to rub at her head, it hurt but she couldn't remember a time where it didn't hurt.
She was trying to remember.
Trying to remember who she was before Akatsuki.
All she can remember was this:
She was Haruno Sakura, last member of the Haruno clan. The clan that was murdered by their home village. She was Sakura, a missing-nin. A missing-nin with a vengeance. She was going to make them pay.
