Part 4- "Goodbye, Kohona"

When dawn broke, Sakura collapsed right next to a lake after running a few miles into the border of Amekagure, just to make sure that the ANBU wouldn't chase her any longer. She lied down on the shore of a lake and thought So… this is it? I'm a traitor of Kohona now? What will I do? She drifted off into sleep as the exertion of the night's chase caught up with her.

She saw Kohona's streets bathed in blood and Sasuke's lighting-enhanced sword piercing Hinata's heart before he rammed a Chidori through Ino's heart. Both kunoichi slumped to the ground, dead, with identical faces of shock. She watched as everyone died- Naruto, Kakashi, Sai, Kiba, Shino, Kurenai, Neji, Tenten, Lee, Guy, Shikamaru, Choji, the children, the Hokage… everyone she loved, cared about, met, or knew… She couldn't do anything to stop it, only wait until he came for her…

"Um, Itachi, this girl is sweating and thrashing around. Is she okay?" "She looks familiar. She has a Leaf headband… She must be from Kohona." "Let's bring her to base. She could have information that Leader wants." Sakura tried to make sense of this in her dream. Who was this Itachi? Why did that name sound horribly familiar? But Sakura couldn't stay conscious long enough. She sunk back into her nightmare of blood and violence again…
