"'Naruto's not doing it just because he promised Sakura! He wants to save Sasuke himself, too!'"

-Naruto Chapter 459 Page 05

Pink, Black, and Yellow Heads II

Sakura's PoV

"Sa-Sasuke!" Naruto yelled out angrily, his cerulean eyes burning fiercely. He halted his action and looked up at Naruto with great annoyance in his dark eyes but never put down Kusonagi. The sword was just resting on the skin of my neck though not enough pressure was applied to severe my artery. Despite it just barely resting on my neck, its sharpness caused a tiny droplet of crimson blood to run down my skin along with my sweat. I grit my teeth glaring at Sasuke and our current position. He had my arms pinned firmly to the wall with an iron grip and if he chose to, he could allow the sword to simply glide over my vein and I'd be gone, just like that…damnit!

'Why am I still so weak and unable to defend myself!? Naruto had to come and save me again!' I berated myself inside my head.

"Hmph dobe…what are you doing here?" Sasuke demanded from him with a hint of frustration laced into his words, his eyes icy cold and as usual…glaring. I rolled my eyes at his oh so predictable attitude and tried to see if I could escape his grasp while at the same time watch out for his sword. Unfortunately, I guess he didn't forget about me because if possible his grip just tightened which then caused me to start gasping for air.

"I'm here to bring you back to Konoha whether you want to or not…Sasuke!" Feeling like no one knew I was struggling for breath I made a large choking sound to gain their attention. Thankfully their eyes averted to my slowly weakening form but Sasuke's hold never loosened.

'Damnit Sasuke! Let go you bastard!' I cursed at him silently in my mind although if I could, I would definitely yell that to his face right now and give him a taste of my chakra infused punch.

"Let her go teme!" Naruto demanded finally realizing I needed to breathe and he was unsuccessful since said teme's grip still wasn't loosening one bit.

"And if I don't? What are you gonna do about it dead last? Hmm?" Sasuke taunted Naruto with that ever annoying smirk present on his sinfully handsome features which I wish I could've wiped right off his face with my two fists again and again. But he was right and Naruto knew it to because his teeth were gritted and his sea blue pupils narrowed. If Naruto tried anything my head would be rolling on the ground in no time for sure.

'Still…this is getting way out of hand and I'll be damned if I die just because I couldn't take in oxygen!'

Finally gathering all my courage, I pumped as much chakra as I could into both arms. One arm to hold back his arm in case he accidently tried to slice my head off as an automatic response to my next action and the other to perform that said action. Feeling all the chakra centered in my arms, I jabbed the point of my right elbow into his ribcage hard and I mean really really hard. Smirking weakly I felt his arms immediately unwrap themselves from my neck and grasp onto his now probably broken ribcage.

I fell to the ground and at once started to take in large gulps of my precious air to replenish my lungs' supply. My glowing hand went to my throat to soothe the aching and applied a small amount of healing chakra in case he bruised my windpipe. Behind me I could hear him coughing and I knew he was coughing up blood.

'He should be thankful I was able to mold only a small amount of chakra otherwise, he'd be finished already, lying on the ground in two halves.'

The current smirk on my face widened in triumph and I glanced up to see Kakashi-sensei, Yamato-sensei and Naruto with smirks adorning their faces. Well…Kakashi-sensei's expression was more amused but I could tell he was secretly laughing on the inside. Meanwhile, inside my head Inner Sakura was doing her own little victory dance for my successful escape.

'Cha! Serves him right the bastard!' She kept on chanting.

Slowly getting up on my feet with Naruto's help, I turn around to find Sasuke holding onto his ribs with both arms, a lot of blood pouring from his mouth. A small amount of guilt settled in my heart watching him suffer from the pain but quickly banished it from my mind remembering all the pain he caused us; Naruto and me.

"What's wrong Sasuke-kun? Having trouble? Are you in pain?" The words escaping my mouth were mocking and sickeningly sugarcoated at the same time. Every ounce of pain and misery he's caused me, I was going to deliver unto him tenfold now.

"Ugh fuck!" was his only reply as he finally leaned on the wall for support. Guess he wasn't so high and mighty now. My eyes impulsively narrowed as suddenly the red head ran to his side her sleeve pulled all the way up to her shoulder revealing a whole bunch of marks and scars scattered all along her arm.

"Hurry Sasuke!" She shouted at his ragged figure shoving her arm in front of his face. I raised my eyebrows in wonder and confusion at her imposing. What did she expect him to do? Bite her? Apparently, that's exactly what she expected because Uchiha Sasuke placed his perfect lips on her arm and bit down hard drawing blood but at the same time summoning a strange reaction. A burst of chakra traveled from the girl to Sasuke and at once started healing all his injuries. My evergreen irises widened and my mouth dropped slightly open in shock at her power and I know the others had the same surprised look on their faces.

'She's a medic-ninja too!?' Inner Sakura shouted in a voice tinged with jealousy and hatred.

Almost instantly I too start to feel a new hatred for her beginning to form in my heart mixed with anger and jealousy. Wait…jealousy? There's no way I'd be jealous of her! I mean, I know I possess much more medical knowledge than her but still, Sasuke chose her. What makes her so special? Every second that passed by I got angrier for a few reasons. One of them is for even getting angry in the first place just because she could heal others too and so quickly. Immediately, I rid my mind of all my current thoughts focusing on the interaction at hand; forcing myself not to be distracted and overcome by emotion.

'Che, whatever, I bet she can't crush boulders into small pebbles and dust…' At that moment, a new level of pain and hatred washed over me. It hurt but I didn't know why. I didn't know why all these emotions were suddenly appearing; after all, I didn't love him anymore. Despite my convincing myself, a voice in the deep realms of my heart was whispering something else; something I couldn't quite grasp because everything else was muting the voice's sound. I had an idea as to what but I didn't want to hear it. I never want to hear it; whatever that voice was saying.

Sasuke's PoV

'Holy fuck! She cracked every single rib with one blow of her elbow. I better watch out for her..' I burned the reminder into my brain. If I ever come into a fight with Sakura again, I'd have to be ready for her chakra infused punches. If not, I'd be a goner and then I'd never get my revenge against the Elders. Focusing on the situation at hand, I stand up slowly as Karin's special ability heals the last of my broken ribs. Moving my eyes slowly over the whole group in front of me, I stop my eyes on Sakura. They all wore looks of wonder on their faces at Karin's "miracle" but Sakura's was mixed with something else.

'Is that anger and…jealousy?' I smirk at their idiotic expressions but mostly because of Sakura's. It looks like she still harbors feelings for me even though she's trying her best to act like she doesn't. Only one word ran through my mind at that moment and it's…weak. In the blink of an eye I appear beside Sakura and I hear her gasp of surprise as do the others standing behind her. I then proceed to whisper into her ear words that I'm one hundred percent sure will unnerve her. Those words leave my lips taunting and unmerciful; knowing for sure they'll leave a mark.

"What's wrong Sa-ku-ra? Are you Jealous?" The smirk on my face widens at her instantaneous reaction, as if she was a snake; lashing out at the slightest movement or sound. At the sound of my voice so close to her ear and at my words, her whole body flinched and her fists struck out. Too bad I had already sized her up and moved out of the way seconds before her fists flew. Looking at her face from my original position, I analyze her expression to see what else I could have stirred within her. The smirk on my face remains and my eyes show amusement and nothing else at her face. Her emerald orbs were burning with such fierceness, such fire that if I wasn't as strong as I was now I would have probably flinched.

'Hn like that'll ever happen.'

"Jealous of what? Your slut?" The smirk leaves my face and my eyes turn steely at her question/answer. Behind me, I can hear Karin growling and clenching and unclenching her fist, anger bubbling up inside her chest. Suigetsu just starts snickering and Juugo remains silent probably wearing a solemn expression; he never was one for such vulgar words. Glaring at the petal haired kunoichi in front of me I answer back fire with fire but Karin beats me to it.

"What slut? The only slut I see here is you skank!" Karin's tone is full of rage and I just stand there in between the two keeping my eyes on her trembling figure.

'Here comes the waterworks.' A small unnoticeable smirk makes itself present on my lips at the tears I knew would fall to the floor in a matter of seconds. However, that smirk is wiped right off my face as Karin is sent crashing right through the wall behind him and out into the snowy ground.

'Shit!' I curse inwardly and rush out to try and quell the now raging battle between the two, all my intentions to help Karin, but my actions are stopped as a certain blue eyed blond haired shinobi steps into my view and in my way.

"Dobe…get out of my way now." I order in a deadly tone, my dark intent now rolling off of me in waves.

"No teme. I'm going to bring you back to Konoha today for sure! And…I won't leave this place until you come back! So get ready cuz there's no way you can escape this time!" He yells back and I could see clearly the determination in his strong and steady gaze; the confidence, the will…everything. I glance briefly to my sides to see how the rest of Team Hawk is faring and find that they're already engaged in their own battles. Kakashi vs. Juugo and Suigetsu vs. that brown haired man. I take out Kusonagi as I focus on Naruto. From my spot a few yards away I could feel the power of his chakra emanating from his body; flaring wildly like a fire.

"Damnit Dobe! Just get out of my way!"

"No!" is his final response before we clash in a battle between enemies. At least to me he was my enemy.

'Sakura…Dobe…you two are so fucking annoying.' With that final thought I put all my focus into the fight but just before I get serious, a shiver runs down my spine. Something was going to happen at the end of this fight and I have a feeling it's not going to be for my benefit.

End of PoV's

Tsunade's and Shizune's eyes widened at the man who just barged into the tent while Sai only stared in total confusion. 'Who is this guy and how does he know Sakura?' was the only thought running through his mind. He'd never seen this man before in his entire life. He had warm brown eyes and soft messy hair. His chest and shoulders were broad meaning he was built with flawless slightly tanned skin. His height matched his but this man was a few inches taller. He wasn't gay or anything but…if Sasuke ever returned to the village, which he secretly hoped he wouldn't, then he would have major competition with the women of the village.

"I-Idate! What are you doing here?" Sai burned his name into his memory along with his face. He deemed it important to since this guy seemed important.

"Tsunade-sama. Well, I was already on my way here from Tea Country 'cuz I'd heard of the invasion. I wanted to help out in any way I could. But then, as I was running Sakura suddenly jumped out of the trees right in front of me. We exchanged greetings but then she turned all serious and insisted on me handing you this letter." Idate's deep voice rang throughout the tent and took a few seconds to register into the minds of the ninja sitting down before him.

'So Sakura did go on her own personal mission. Ugh I need more sake.' Tsunade sighed tiredly from all the events currently taking place. Damn Jiraiya for seeking her out and persuading her to be Hokage. Well, it was actually Naruto who persuaded her to accept with his striking resemblance to her deceased younger brother and lover. All three shared the same dream to become Hokage; all three possessed Konohagakure's famous Will of Fire. Her fatigued amber orbs softened softly as she thought about the blond idiot.

She wondered how and what he was doing at the moment but decided against herself to inquire her Shizune until after Idate had left. Returning to the situation at hand Tsunade responded to Idate's answer by putting out her hand to take the letter which was resting on the young man's out-stretched palm. The busty blonde placed her finger inside the flap of the paper and carefully opened the Sakura's important message. With each passing word her golden pools of honeysuckle continued to widen and widen while her mouth dropped open almost to the point where it touched the ground.

Tsunade-sama,

I won't beat around the bush so Danzo possesses the Sharingan. I don't how, why, or when he obtained it from but there is only one place he could've got it; the Uchihas. Its powers are still unclear to me but it has to do something with manipulation of the mind or clairvoyance; something which allows him to see past his opponents or controls them. Inform everyone that you deem necessary so they can be ready in case there ever comes a time we will need to engage in battle with him. I'll continue to send reports of my findings as soon as I gather more information about his sharingan. I'll also continue to send information about anything new I discover about Sasuke and Akatsuki.

Take care and be safe,

Sakura

The letter fell from Tsunade's hand and to the ground as a very crumpled ball. Things had just escalated onto a whole other level. At this point, she could believe anything anyone said which made this letter a little less surprising but surprising nonetheless. There was no point in being shocked and being in a stupor. She needed to take action, she needed to start putting everything in control again but most importantly, she needed to take up the position of Hokage once again and protect her village.

"Tsunade-sama, what did the let-" Shizune was cut off at Tsunade's sudden orders. Staring at her tired orbs she could tell a new fire blazed within them. Now was not the time to question anything Tsunade-sama ordered or demanded. In time she would reveal all truth but not now, that much she was sure. "Thank you for delivering to me this letter Idate but now I'm going to have to ask you to leave us here and help out the villagers to restore all the buildings to their former conditions." Tsunade was now standing and her words were clear and authoritative; the kind of words which came only from the Hokage.

"H-Hai!" Idate answered surprised at the busty blonde's sudden request. The air around her changed in a heartbeat and the aura wasn't bitter or tormented like he earlier sensed. Now it was strong and calm. It was like the flickering of a flame, warm and steady. Standing in her presence provided him with a sense of security and safety he still never really felt back in Tea Country. Staring at her eyes he could tell a fire definitely burned inside them and he knew you should never play with fire less you want to get burned. "Ja ne,"giving them a wide smirk Idate raised his hand and casually jogged out the flap of the tent.

'Wow…what did she read?' Said thought getting more puzzled by the second. However, he was, in a matter of seconds, desperately trying to solve an enigma at Tsunade's next order. "Shizune, arrange for Shikamaru, the Akimichi clan, Inuzuka clan, Shino, Hinata and Neji to help you excavate the Uchiha district. See if you can find any records about their clan and history. Also see if you can find any information on any secret buildings or meeting places they might have built."

"Wh-What!? B-But what if there's n-nothing lef!" She was stopped at honeysuckle orbs which practically oozed no objections or questions.

"Now," came Tsunade's stern voice.

"H-Hai!" Shizune hurried out the tent and immediately set to work gathering up the mentioned people and headed to the abandoned Uchiha district.

Sai backed away slowly and raised his eyebrows as Tsunade's determined heated gaze turned on him. "N-Nani?" He asked the intimidating Hokage meekly. A small smirk appeared on Tsunade's face as the fire in her eyes burned brighter. "Sai…stick your tongue out please."

Sakura's PoV

Crunch! The sound of breaking bones reaches my ears which further encourages me to keep my barrage of punches on this skanky red head. The stupid whore thought she could block one of my punches with her hand but boy was she wrong. Everything that was bubbling up inside of me was going to be expelled from me and onto her. I knew I wouldn't be interrupted either because everyone else had engaged in their own fights. More specifically speaking Naruto and Sasuke were in their own battle which meant Sasuke couldn't try and stop me from beating the shit out of her. Crunch! The bones in her other hand crack too.

'That's for Team Seven!' 'Cha!!' My inner agrees and my fists keep on flying.

Crunch! "Aaaaaaaaaaaaagh!!" Her screams fill the air because I just landed a blow on her ribcage which efficiently cracked each and every one of them. Poor her though 'cuz no one's going to help her out.

'That's for the hate I bear for you!' 'Slut! Skank! Bimbo! Tastes my fury!!'Inner cries out and my fists stop soaring but my leg comes up.

Crunch! "Ugh…" She falls to her knees as the sound of her nose breaking resounds in my ear.

'That's for Sasuke choosing a weakling like you and because I hate him too, the dick!' 'I can't believe he chose you! You don't deserve to be with him! I hope you suffer my pain along with Sasuke's!' My inner is unleashing the tiger within and my hands speed through very intricate hand signs.

Plop. Karin's face and body plummets to the snow in a heap trapped in one of my most deadly genjutsu.

'That's for me and all the hurt I've had to endure.' 'Shannaro! Hell yeah!' My inner is rejoicing and I revel in the triumph, steadying my raging heart to a strong rhythmic beat.

I put her in a world where she would experience pain more horrifying than any physical pain. The pain of severed bonds; bonds of friendship…bonds of family…bonds of the one you love with all your heart or at least…claim to love. She was going to experience the people she cares about the most, and I won't have to worry about who they are because the jutsu directly attacks the mind extracting the people in her heart, leaving her and forgetting her.

'Feel my pain.' Some of the pain in the locked away chambers of my heart escapes and my soul feels less heavy with the hurt. I look down at the girl named Karin lying down face first on the snow and feel pity well up in me. She doesn't know what she's gotten herself into. Sasuke and Konoha…Sasuke was for sure just using her abilities and Konoha…well we were just on a whole other level than her. She'd only suffer in the end and I'd just stand there and watch her try to cope with all the betrayal and strife.

Two more plops attract my attention and I turn my head behind me to see that her other two teammates, the silver haired one and the orange haired one have fallen.

'Looks like Kaka-sensei and Yama-sensei beat their asses too.' A smirk appears on my face at Sasuke's supposedly strong team and Inner Sakura laughs in amusement. Oh how the mighty have fallen. Psssh! They were never mighty to begin with. The smirk slowly disappears when I turn my head to Naruto's and Sasuke's fight. They were still going at it Naruto holding a kunai and Sasuke holding Kusonagi. Both were breathing hard and I could tell they still had more than half of their chakras. However Sasuke's chakra was becoming more sinister by the second. He was facing me with Naruto's back to me and I could clearly see his eyes. They held anger for what we did to his team and my pools of emerald widen.

'H-He actually cares about them!?' The thought hurts but I try not to let it show.

That vile green monster begins to claw its way up again but I quickly force it down. I don't care at all that he cares about his new team. I don't care at all that he replaced us. After all, he never considered us as his team in the first place right? Right…I don't care…at least that's what I was telling myself. My eyes found his and I saw a hatred lurking beneath his obsidian orbs. Did he really hate us that much? My expression turns sour and I glare at him letting out a casual comment.

"Hurry up and just knock him out Naruto, I'm getting hungry." The words leave my mouth lacksadaisically and I stare at Sasuke for a reaction. I'm successful because his face darkens and he grips the word even tighter. So he doesn't like people thinking he's weak hmmm? The bastard, thinking he's the strongest man alive. Well Naruto will show him. With that final thought I harden my gaze and stand tall. We were going to bring back Uchiha Sasuke for sure no doubt about it.

"Do it Naruto. Finish this game of cat and mouse." Chakras flare as I tip Sasuke over the edge and support Naruto. This was it, they were going to collide in an all out battle. A battle between former comrades and if fate be willing, they'll soon become comrades. The air changes and the sky darkens with metal against metal ringing throughout the field.

'Onegai Naruto, bring him back, for Team Seven, for us.' Somehow I knew this battle would end for the better so it was with this feeling that I put all my faith into Naruto and if need be, myself in case he needed my assistance. Things were going to change, with an Uchiha back in town.
