-1Hello my name is Masasashi Kishimoto and I own Naruto… Actually, my name is Breeanna and I don't own Naruto… please don't sue 0o.
Alright readers I challenge you to read this entire Fan fiction!!! Anyway in case you don't already know this is a Part II to another fan fiction of mine if you haven't read it already it's "The Cherry Blossom and the Lotus" So I strongly suggest that you read the first one before this one. This is my second Fan fiction ever so don't be mean about it. This takes place 1 year since Sakura and, Lee got stuck in the cave exactly, witch means their year anniversary is coming up… if your confused. If for example it has (me:…) that means that's what I think or did when that happened. Just so you know if it's slanted like this that means that it's inner Sakura, if it's like this that means it's outer Sakura. Ok, now you can read it.
Chp3:That's a Promise!
Noon At the border of Kiri…
Sakura arrived at the border where the scroll told the teams to meet. She saw team Gai and Team Kakashi. Only of course Kakashi wasn't there yet… as usual. Finally about a hour and a half later he came to the meeting area.
"WHAT THE HELL TOOK YOU SO LONG KAKASHI-SENSEI?!?!?!?!?" Naruto yelled.
"Well you see I had to walk my cat." Kakashi said rather calmly.
"Yea right you can't walk cats!!!!!" the blonde shinobi exclaimed.
Naruto doesn't even talk about the fact that Kakashi-sensei doesn't even own a cat! Sakura thought to herself.
"Anyway excusing Kakashi's tardiness we should start the mission before Katai Tsume strikes again." Gai said. (Katai Tsume is the name of the person they were hired to kill. His name literally translates to hard metal claw. Plus it just sound awesome!)
"Gai-Sensei is right we've wasted enough time waiting for Kakashi-Sensei" Sakura gave Kakashi an angry look. "and his cat."
"heheheheh….!" Kakashi laughed sarcastically.
"Alright by rumor he last struck in the northern area of Kiri I say we should see if Pakkun can find his scent there." Kakashi said seriously.
"Good plan sensei!" Sakura exclaimed.
" But regarding how dark it is I say we sleep in for now…"
"GAH! Sensei you always do that on every mission. You get us excited about it then you tell us 'Oh! It's too dark we should sleep and rest up," Naruto mocked. "Don't you remember the last time we slept for the night with team Gai?"
"Of course I do," Kakashi said. "Don't remind me." He said quietly to himself staring at Lee, and Sakura. "But we are all tired, and need our rest before we even think about the embarking on the mission. We need our strength especially after that boat ride. Besides I am still tired from walking my cat before I left." Sakura slapped her forehead in grief of her sensei's weirdness.
"Fine!" Naruto exclaimed.
"Alright there's a hotel nearby. We'll stay there for tonight. Plus they have a bath house!" Kakashi squealed happily.
Wow… everyone' insane… Inner Sakura exclaimed to herself.
Later that night:
"I have to admit the bath house here isn't half bad." Sakura said to herself relaxing in the hot water. "Now I'm glad Kakashi-sensei suggested it now."
"Sakura-chan?" a voice said through the wooden wall separating the men's, and women's bath houses.
"Who's there?" Sakura yelled.
"It's me Lee." he said moderately calm. Sakura could feel herself blushing though there was a wall between them she felt as if he could see her.
"Oh hello Lee-kun," They both faced away from each other without even knowing.
"Do you think…?" Sakura started. "Do you think we'll finish the mission in time for… our anniversary?" Sakura had a sad look on her face. Lee could sense she was worried about whether or not they will make it on time.
"Do not worry Sakura-chan… I will find, and defeat him with plenty of time to spare. That is a promise!" Sakura knew for some reason Lee was doing the nice guy pose though no one could see him. Sakura smiled. When Lee made a promise he'd always keep it even if it'd kill him. She suddenly felt at ease with Lee's words along with the hot baths warmth.
"Thank you Lee-kun I feel much better now. I just hope it won't ruin it all for us."
"Hey Bushy Brow-san!!!" Sakura herd from the other side.
"Oh hello Naruto-kun." Lee replied
UGH!!! THAT BAKA!!! Interrupting our private conversation like that!!!!! Sakura thought to herself.
Oh well Sakura stepped out of the hot bath and wrapped a towel around her. She headed for her hotel room.
"Let's see room #9." She strolled down a long pathway with many doors on her right side going in ascending order. She stopped at one door that had an iron number nine on it.
"Here we go." She opened the door, and walked in. It was small but she didn't really need a lot of room. The pink haired kinoichi dressed herself for sleep, and sat down on her bed.
"I hope.. It'll all work out." Sakura said to herself under her breath. She turned off the lights, laid down, and tried to fall asleep.
