He was getting stronger, he knew it. He had been training with Sakura for a year now, and he couldn't believe how he could have gotten so strong in suck a short amount of time. When he had beat down his pride down enough to ask, Sakura had told him it was because of the seal.

"Seals contain a special type of chakra. Since they have not been naturally born into your body, they have to contain merging properties. These merging properties build you up into something that is suitable to it. One of the things it does is give you immense power. You only have to learn it soon afterwards." She had said.

Sasuke looked down at the seal located on his forearm. It was like Sakura's only instead of being made of metal, it was made of fire, the element which he had chosen. Sasuke blushed, remembering the day he had gotten it …

"Alright Sasuke, its time I gave you your seal, your body is not strong enough to take the implantation," Sakura had told him one time when they had met up for training. He just shrugged and nodded his head "You have a couple of elements to choose from, but choose wisely and make sure they are compatible with your system and your fighting techniques," she continued.

Soon, Sasuke found himself in from of an array of seals, each spelling a different element in kanji. "I would like the fire seal," Sasuke finally decided. Sakura nodded, acknowledging his choice. "Go home, rest up, this is going to be a he strain on your body, the fire seal is by far the heaviest element, because it is one of the most powerful. Meet me up here by midnight, the moon should be full," she told him, and then disappeared into the trees.

Taking her advice, Sasuke had gone home, and set his alarm clock to wake him up at midnight. When his sleep was interrupted, Sasuke looked out the window to find that the moon was indeed full, as Sakura had predicted. When nearing the clearing, Sasuke could feel strong chakra coming off in waves. Also, there was a stench of blood.

When he came into the clearing the sight that met his eyes drove the breath from his lungs. There was kanji, written in blood, all over the clearing in patterns, with one circle in the middle of them all. The moonlight seemed to illuminate the circle more than the rest of the clearing. The most eye catching piece of it all was Sakura.

She was wearing a short and elegant silver skirt and a silver kimono top that showed a lot of midriff. Her seal was stretched out to its full extent and Sasuke realised she must be dressed in thin sheets of metal She had silver highlights in her hair. She finished drawing the kanji and turned to him.

Alright, you're going to have to loose the clothes, the seal needs to dress you when it merges. Noticing his evident fluster with her demand, she rolled her eyes "its not like I've never seen it," she smirked. Surprising himself, Sasuke had blushed … C'MON! UCHIHAS DO NOT BLUSH!

Growling to himself he slid out of his clothing and looked to Sakura, who motioned for him to sit in the circle. Sasuke was now quite aware that other than the metal, Sakura was also nude, and that thought started turning him on.

She would probably see everything if he did, so Sasuke tried as hard as possible to think of other thing to prevent his arousal from heightening.

She made another cut on her wrist, dabbing her hands in the crimson liquid that seeped out, and proceeded to cover him in ruins using it. After she was done, she carefully laced the seal on his forearm and then slammed a hand full of chakra into it, knocking Sasuke's breath out of his lungs.

The pain he felt then was overwhelming, so that he felt dazed by it. It didn't last long and as he came back to he noticed that his appearance had changed. There were red and yellow streaks in his hair, just like Sakura's had silver. He realised that a substance akin to fire was acting as his clothing, which were a long sleeved tight shirt which didn't close, showing his chest. And On the Bottom were common ¾ shorts. "Sexy," Sakura commented, smirking, he just "Hned" in response, Sasuke could feel the power inside of him now, like he never had when he was training with Orochimaru.

"Rest up, meet up to train as usual," and with a puff of smoke, Sakura had vanished, but not before Sasuke saw that she was completely nude, seeing as the seal had retreated. The fire clothes were gone too, leaving Sasuke standing nude and alone in a clearing that smelled of blood and reeked of power … with a major hard on.

… Sasuke felt his pants constrict, and sighed heavily, willing his erection away, this was SO not the time. He had to do something for the growing lust with Sakura soon, or else he would find himself one sex-deprived man, if he wasn't one already.
