Narutos POV

I looked up at the starry sky.

'Please, Let my sakura-chan be okay. i don't know what I'd do otherwise.'

I saw the shooting star fade into the distance. I sighed. Where are you Sakura?

Sakuras POV

"Please Suigetsu! I need to get back. Don't make me hurt you. You seem nice, I dont want to beat you." Suigetsu clenched his stomach as in pain. But no, he was laughing. (anime sweat drop moment) "Y-You cant beat m-me Sakura!" I wanted to kill him right then and there for insulting me like that. Does he know who hes talking to? An Akatsuki member! The second strongest in the Akatsuki! The weakest out of the Akatsuki could probably kill him! He noticed my death stare and got a hold of himself quickly. I then pondered the thought of why I was holding back. I would never do that last week. If anyone were to just think the thought of beating me, they wouldn't be thinking anything anymore at all. I looked around, Sasuke no where in sight. This, to me, was my chance to leave. "I need to go catch some air before I kill you," suigetsu continued laughing again. I rolled my eyes and transported outside. I searched the area, Sasuke still not around. I sprinted out into an opening three miles away from the hideout he had brought me to. I slid to a sudden stop as I saw a familar boy that I didn't want to see. I don't want to get stopped. Not now. I've started and I will finish. Sasuke looked back at me with cold blood eyes. I clenched my jaw under his stare. I stared back with the same intensity. "Sakura..." My name was barely audible. Why is Sasuke being such a coward, speak up for gods sake. Wait, that isn't Sasukes voice. I looked over Sasukes shoulder. A blonde, with sorrowful teary blue eyes. I raised my chin high. Showing I have changed and will not coward back and stay shy. "Naruto." He disconnected our eye contact and stared at the ground to the side. "I thought you were dead..." I scoffed. Me? Dead? No, far from. "Naruto, I feel more alive than ever at the moment. How about you? Why are you being a coward at the moment?" He looked back at me full of shock. He gulped out of nervousness. "I will not fight you Sakura." I slightly laughed to myself. "Still too weak Naruto. You cant even fight Sasuke!" My calmness finally leaving being replaced with a feisty temper not to be reckoned with. "He left before me! He broke up team seven. He tried to kill me! You! From what I heard he tried to destroy Konoha! He joined Orichimaru! The list can go on,reasons of why you should kill him! But you refuse! That shows how weak you are! You cant kill someone you knew for a few years, and in those years didn't even like you! Weakness, that's all I think when I see you Naruto Uzumaki." he bit his lip and looked down. When he looked up he had rivers flowing down his cheeks. Honestly it made a little crack in my heart to see that, but I stood my ground. I heard a small 'hn' come from Sasuke, but he stayed quite. "You really have *sniffle*become like Sasuke, Sakura. You want to know why I cant kill Sauske and you? Sasuke, although always having a cold front, would always protect you and I. He would brag about how strong he was so It would become known to everyone. So everyone knew not to mess with team seven. You know when Orichimaru first bit Sasuke? When he woke up he defended you, he didn't just let that guy get away with it like he said he would. I realized he always told me to stay out of the way to make sure I didn't get hurt, or *laugh* to just keep me out of his path, but either way, it was protecting us Sakura. He did care, and deep, deep inside his venomous black heart, he still does." I looked at my old teammate, he meant that. He sincerly meant that. He still cared for Sasuke and I. Although we both left him. Left him with Kakashi. "I got transferred to a team with Hinata, Kiba and Shino. Good right? I see your in Akatsuki Sakura! Wow! Sasuke has his own team. I expected that, for him to be in control and not to be controlled. But Sakura! I mean join Sasukes team or something, yeah but Akatsuki? Things have changed alot. Especially you Sakura. Wouldn't it be amazing if I left Konoha and we started a new team? Team...69! ahahahah yes perfect. Team69!" I shook my head. "How childish. Get this through your skull, we aren't getting back together Naruto." He nodded in understanding. "But Sakura, I was sent out to kill the new Akatsuki member. So come back, or..." I understood. He would try to kill me. As if...
