I'm Sorry for not updating in….ever. I lost my passion for this story but since I'm on spring break I will try to get a couple of chapters out.
Dedicated to every one that yelled and pleaded for me to update this story.
So I have been reading D. Gray-man lately (It's addicting and suspenseful, the author keeps you guessing if the characters will die or not… now that's talent.) and I decided to read some fan fiction….. and all I have to say is…. Allen is not gay… period. There is so much Yulen (KandaxAllen) that it was sickening… it is the equivalence of sasunaru. Except worst…. Because 99 was Yulen (or Allenxguy character) while here sasunaru takes up 70.
Sorry I felt like ranting about my annoyance of characters that are known to be completely straight magically turned gay, but I guess that's why it's called fan fiction… I could understand Kanda being thought gay… I can almost understand Sasuke being gay. But Allen and Naruto….. No.
Ok sorry I started ranting again. On with Sakutobi…
Sakura unlocked the door to her house and stepped in. She slipped off her shoes and walked straight towards her room. She threw her keys on the table in front of the couch as she passed through the living room. Once in her room Sakura jumped on her bed and smothered her face in her pillows and let out a frustrated sigh. After a couple of seconds she turned her head to the side and stared at her wall. She stayed like that for a couple of minutes just staring off into space thinking about her day. Slowly she pulled her self up and looked around in her room, realizing she needed to clean the place up before she left tomorrow.
She started to pick the clothing up first. As she got to the other side of her room she picked up a piece of clothing and saw something under it. She bent down and picked up a small stuffed animal. It was a bunny. She stared at it confused. Sakura couldn't even remember ever seeing this bunny before. She sat the clothing pile down and sat down in front of where she first found the bunny. She stared at the face of the bunny like it would come to life and tell her where she had gotten it. Had someone given it to her or did she buy it?
"Sakura-chan…"
"Yeah?"
"--…. -- loves you Sakura-chan."
She grabbed her head. What was that? Was that a memory? She could hear the mysterious voice and her voice so clearly like it was happening right in the room. But every time the person said their name it became muttered and distorted. She shook her head and got up. She didn't need to be thinking about this right now. This made things more complicated now that she could feel the memory even though it felt like every time she reached for them, they would slip through her fingers and be pulled even farther away. She put the bunny on her bed and picked up her clothes again and went to her closet to put them up. She bent down and put them down but something white and pink in the back of her closet that caught her eye. She pulled it out and it was a white kimono with pink cherry blossoms. Sakura felt even more confused. First the bunny and now a kimono? Now she knew that there had been no festival in Konoha so what the HELL had she been doing to get her memories not only erased but to have a bunny and a kimono?
"-- feels like he is wearing a really girly dress."
"You do look quite girly, are you sure it isn't a girl's kimono?"
"-- hopes not, -- tried to find a nice looking one too."
"--, I was kidding."
Now she was sure of it, that these items were part of what ever happened and she wished they could raise more of her memories. Now she knew that besides Tobi, there was another man she had been around…. Who not only bought a girly kimono…. but loved her. Which was a weird concept to her since she couldn't remember anyone with that voice. She wished she could see this persons face. With another frustrated sigh she picked up the Kimono and hung it up. She grabbed her bag and started packing for the mission, grabbing things she thought she would need. Medical kit, food, blanket, etc. She placed it by her bed and went and took a shower and got ready for bed. She brushed her hair slowly staring at the reflection of herself in the mirror. She stopped and put her brush down and leaned closer towards her image. She stared straight into her eyes as if they would tell her of her hidden memories. She sighed and went to her bed and got under the covers. As she fell asleep she didn't notice how she unconsciously pulled the bunny closer to her.
'Tobi'. She whispered as she unknowingly dreamed of the masked shinobi and his kindness.
Tobi stood up and rubbed his shoulders tiredly. He walked slowly to the door in front of him, stopping to look over at the carnage of the men he had just killed. He pitied their families that would miss their fathers, sons, and husbands. Thinking of this made him think of Sakura and how much he missed her, which was the exact opposite of what he really wanted to be thinking about. He had asked for more missions from leader to keep his mind off a certain pink haired woman, which in turn pissed Deidara off because he wanted a break. So Deidara decided that if Tobi decided to be a suicidal ass he could go do the missions alone. Which right now was what Tobi was doing and he found out that even in the midst of focusing on a missions, she would pop into his head.
"Why can't Flower-chan leave Tobi's thoughts alone?" He whined out loud as he walked into the deep forest.
"Because you're a moron who is obsessed with her, un." Deidara said as he jumped out of a tree. Tobi tilted his head a little to show he was confused.
"Tobi thought Deidara said 'UN!! YOUR STUPID UN!! YOU CAN UN DO ALL THE UN MISSIONS BY YOURSELF UN!!"'" Tobi said with a bad impression of Deidara. Deidara eyebrow twitched at Tobi's impressions.
"I did, un…. And I do not say un that much, un." Deidara said smacking Tobi over the head.
"OW Deidara-sempai! Don't hit Tobi that hard. It's not Tobi fault that Deidara says un like ka-buh-gillion times!"
"Well it's not my fault you're a moron and don't know how to say I and me and can't use proper grammatical sentences!" Deidara shot back. Tobi started to walk forward into the woods and Deidara started to follow.
"Tobi thinks saying Tobi's name is cute in sentences just like giving cute nicknames to people!" Tobi siad crossing his arms to show his annoyance at being picked on. " And anyways, Tobi doesn't think un is very grammatical either if Deidara-sempai uses it all over the place like a moron." Tobi shot back over his shoulder.
"Tobi you're the moron and it is no way cute to put your name in place of I or me nor is it cute to give people annoying nicknames." Deidara yelled at his partner. Tobi stopped and turned to his partner placing a hand on Deidara's shoulder.
"It's ok Sempai. Tobi understands why your so angry at Tobi all the time." Tobi said in a oh-so sickening sweet voice.
"You do, un?" Deidara said with an eyebrow raised.
"YUP! You're jealous of Tobi!" He said patting his shoulder in reassurance.
"Excuse me, un?" Deidara said as his eyebrow twitched again.
"Tobi said that Deidara-sempai is jealous. Tobi completely understands!"
"How the hell am I jealous of you?"
"Easy Sempai! Everyone use to think Deidara-sempai was the coolest because of Deidara-sempai's cheesy 'art un is a un bang un!'," Twitch, twitch. "And now everyone thinks Tobi is just way more amazing-er because Tobi is so great and manly compared to Deidara-sempai…" Twitch, twitch. "Oh and Tobi is way more adorable-er too." Twitch, twitch. "Tobi is sorry Deidara-sempai, that Tobi just outshines Deidara-sempai at everything… especially at being cool and manly…." TWITCH, TWITCH! "But if you cut your hair or something, I bet people would stop mistaking you as a girl and think of you as more of a ma- "AHHHHH!!" Deidara had finally had enough of Tobi's verbal abuse and proceeded to jump on him and beat the living tar out of him.
After a good 10 minutes of beating up Tobi, Deidara felt better and got off him and started to walk away.
"Well at least I didn't make out with the enemy." Deidara said loud enough for Tobi to hear.
"THat was low Deidara-Sempai..." Tobi said feeling hurt in many ways.
"yeah, whatever, un. I'll go tell leader that we finished here and that you are heading to the next mission." Deidara said as he threw back a scroll that hit Tobi in the head.
"Ow" Tobi said as he rubbed his head. Tobi sighed and got up and picked up the scroll. He looked at where he had to go and sighed again. Just when he had gotten her off his mind she popped back into his head because of the mission. He had to go to a village west of where he had been with Sakura-chan and steal an important item. This would be easy and fast and he wouldn't even have to get near that place if he avoided it just right.
Sakura woke up the next day before the sun was up. She got up and put on her ninja outfit and gear and grabbed her bag. She went into the kitchen and grabbed something to eat and headed out to the gate. Surprisingly she was the first person there. She expected Naruto to have beaten her there. She waited a good 10 minutes before Naruto finally came. At first she couldn't look him in the eye for what had happened the day before but finally after a half an hour of awkwardness and waiting for Kakashi she knew she had to clear the air.
"Naruto… I'm sorry." She said with a sad sigh. Naruto rubbed his head and smiled sadly.
"It's ok, I understand Sakura-chan." He said with the best smile he could muster. She came up to him and hugged him.
"You're a really great person Naruto. You have no idea." She whispered. Naruto hugged her enjoying the feel of her arms around him when they heard a cough from behind them and they separated quickly. They blushed furiously as they stared at there smiling Sensei.
"Well, I hope I didn't break up a tender moment between the two of you." He said jokingly. They smirked at their Sensei and they started the trip towards the merchant village.
Ok after a long period of time I hope this will tie you over till I can update again. I have to go to work and I wrote this all up in 2 hours… Which is fast for me.
