CHAPTER 7

RECAP

Once Daichi and Haru were back with Sakura, she looked towards Sasuke gratitude was shown in her eyes he understood and nodded towards her as she was walking out the door Sasuke trailing her.

"I didn't expect to see this"

END OF RECAP

Everyone turned to the owner of the voice. He was lying back on the wall watching the scene with interest. Sakura recognized his voice immediately and she turned towards the voice with a smirk and Sasuke noticed and scowled and turn to the figure dressed in black.

"Itachi, what do you want?" Sasuke growled out Sakura did a side way glance towards him. "Don't worry foolish little I just got here," Itachi stated coming from the shadows he came out looking like Sakura saw him a few minutes ago. When he stood in front of the two Sakura looked back and forth between Sasuke and Itachi. I see the resemblance is quite remarkable Sakura thought looking between the two siblings. She sense Itachi catching her staring but she knew Sasuke couldn't.

Wow those two are smoking hot! I think I'm in love with two gods! Look at them! Even when they look like they are arguing they are hot I think I might melt!

Who are you? Sakura asked mentally confused though she didn't show it on the outside.

I'm your inner silly. My what? Your inner your smart I'm your - my monster? I knew I was going insane it was only a matter of time. You're not insane yet and I am not a monster and pay attention they just stopped arguing.

Sakura snapped back to the reality that is not her mind. She stared at the two siblings in front of her. Sasuke was scowling turning his head and talked to Ikuto while Itachi stared at Sakura raising an eyebrow.

"Itachi," Sakura greeted with a nod Itachi smirked and Sasuke quickly glanced between Sakura and Itachi. How does she know Itachi's name? Do they know each other? Sasuke thought staring at Sakura and Itachi just then a weasel came up Itachi shoulder. (A/N: I couldn't help it I was tempted!) "Itachi you returned. Welcome back," the weasel spoke then looked towards everyone else he stared at Sakura. "Aren't you pretty young thing? How is your siblings I heard so much about you Sakura-Chan," the weasel commented Sakura and her guardians stared at him confusingly.

"My apologies Sakura-Chan this is Tashi he is my guardian," Itachi explained while glancing at Tashi the weasel nodded and bowed as his excuse to leave and left quickly to who knows where.

"I didn't expect you to be at my house Sakura. I assumed you left to your siblings or could you not resist me and had to come see me?" Itachi smirked Sasuke looked confused but glared towards his brother for what Itachi had said.

Sakura waved Itachi off and smirked. "As I didn't expect you to be Sasuke's brother and I came to pick my guardians up I didn't come to see you when I just saw you a moment ago you sick pervert," Sakura commented then she glanced at Sasuke direction to see him glaring at the two.

"How do you know her Itachi?" Sasuke asked coming closer to Sakura and was coming in between the two. Itachi smirked at his brother protectiveness towards the young girl and decided to amuse himself for a little bit.

"She is my lover little brother," Itachi stated with a serious face but in the inside was laughing hard at watching his little brother face go pale and flush and an unbelievable expression went across his pale face and disbelief was present in his oxy eyes. His hands where clenching and unclenching. This can't be true not Sakura He can't already have her Sasuke thought.

When Sakura heard what Itachi said to Sasuke she had a coughing fit she went in front of Sasuke and punched Itachi in his pretty face (A/N: Don't worry about Itachi's face he wasn't hurt badly and it didn't damage his face) Itachi stumbled back holding his jar while staring at Sakura with a smirk.

"Don't say stupid things Itachi you know my brothers and Temari would murder you for that comment," Sakura warned Itachi raised an eyebrow at her behavior and glanced towards a very confused Sasuke then at a very angry Sakura and grinned.

Sakura noticing Itachi grinned and mischievous look in his oxy eyes was suddenly warily. "Itachi," Sakura said in a warning tone. Itachi grin widen the guardians just sat there and watched the exchange with interest.

"Sakura, do you think I am worried what your brothers and your sister might do if they found out about our forbidden love?" Itachi asked serious but he and Sakura knew it was for Itachi's own amusement towards tormenting his younger brother.

"Drop the act Itachi I know your faking it," Sasuke growled out angrily towards his brother for flirting with his girl. Wait since when was Sakura my girl? It does sound nice though My girl Sasuke thought smirking. Itachi sighed at his ruined fun.

"How do you really know Sakura?" Sasuke asked suspiciously Sakura and Itachi exchanged a quick glance. Sasuke doesn't know about Akatsuki and they want to keep it that way for as long as they can.

"He knows and works with my older brother Sasori that's how we met. I went to work with Sasori one day and I met Itachi when I got lost and he helped me find my brother and I known him since. I never expected to have his younger brother in any of my classes," Sakura answered she did told the truth that's how she and Itachi met.

"You mean that guy with the red hair? That stopped by and used to pick up Itachi? He is your brother? How many siblings do you have?" Sasuke asked looking at Itachi at first then at Sakura.

"There are five of us but since we were separated from Sasori there are only four of us. Gaara and I are twins he is older by hours. Kankuro is about two years older than me and Temari is three years older than I am. Sasori is ten years older than I am making him the oldest," Sakura answered.

"Where is he then?" Sasuke questioned Sakura looked up sadly towards Itachi and Sasuke caught the exchanged and narrowed his eyes. Itachi decided to answer. "He is away. Actually we don't know when he is coming back he left a few years ago actually," Itachi answered Sakura didn't speak or meet Sasuke's eyes.

"I didn't know," Sasuke started but Sakura put her hand up to stop him and looked at him with sad emerald eyes. Sasuke felt his chest clenched at the sight.

The sun started to rise and Sakura checked her black watch that was amazingly placed on her right wrist and whistled. "Guess that means no shut eyes it is about six-thirty and schools starts in an hour. Well I have to call Temari she is probably up and ready," Sakura spoke out loud to no one in particular but pulled out her black sidekick and texted Temari to pick her up.

"Sasuke I think it would be wise to get ready for school today seeing as though you only got a few minutes of sleeping," Ikuto advised Sasuke but Sasuke just "hned" him as a refusal to leaving Sakura with his brother.

"Sakura aren't you tired?" Daichi asked Sasuke looked over at a perfectly normal Sakura that didn't seem tired or that the fact that she pulled an all nighter but looked like she had a perfectly well rested sleep.

"No I am not I feel fine and normal why do you ask?" Sakura asked with a normal voice. Haru looked at her confused and he tilted his wolf head and gave a wolf grin. "Because you just pulled an all nighter and don't look tired at all," Haru explained with that Sasuke stared at Sakura with his oxy eyes and stared at her expectally.

"Oh this is normal I rarely don't sleep a lot," Sakura answered shrugging Itachi knew both the reasons why she didn't sleep but if Sasuke asked she will only be able to give one.

I have a feeling that Sasuke going to ask why. Actually he probably is and since I am you I know why but you can't tell him about being a ninja no matter what Thanks like I didn't know that already. Just saying. You are almost useless. Your calling yourself useless how pathetic! Leave me alone you demonic creature! I am not a demonic creature I am you or your inner personality I say and do what you really feel. How corny. Good bye weird corny insane voice Sakura mentally stated.

She felt Sasuke's stared a while ago but didn't really acknowledge it. Then a car was heard coming closer to the house. Sakura looked out of the now open door to see a black porche park in front of the Uchiha mansion. Sakura looked at it strangely she knew her siblings didn't have a black shiny nice porche yet.

"Who is that?" Sakura asked the two boys who just shrugged at the question causing Sakura to twitch her right eye. "How do you not know when who it is when they are in your front porch?" Sakura scolded angrily while she stared at the black in front of them.

"I wonder who it might be," Itachi asked looking towards the car Sasuke moved closer to Sakura which Sakura thought was cute with all his protectiveness but Sakura shook her head. I can't let myself be attached to them none of them its weakness I can't have them hold me back. It's not safe for them for none of them. I can't let myself become attached to Sasuke I can't have feelings for him or it will it will turn badly. I can't let them close I have to stop myself. Admit it you like him there is nothing wrong with it. There is a whole lot wrong with it what happens if one day he finds out? What if he doesn't accept us? We CAN'T get attached only our family. Our siblings only they know our pain. Maybe we need to be attached you know our humanity is leaving us. This disease is not going to cure if you keep shutting everyone out! The disease is incurable and no one can help it. That is what Isabel said before she died. What? Did you know Isabel? No I didn't I don't think I did I can't remember. It's our duty not to get attached and I stand by the mission is the mission worth the humanity that is left inside of you? Your sick Sakura not only is the humanity slowly driving you insane but you have another sickness I can feel it. I know I can feel it inside of me Sakura talked to her inner then when she came back to reality she started coughing.

"Sakura are you alright?" Itachi and Sasuke asked in unison panicking Sakura continued to cough to the point she was coughing up blood. Her eyes widen at the sight then a car door opened and a voice was heard.

"Is she ok?" Sakura tired to look over to the stranger but she saw were black spots covering her view. Then it all turned black.

Sakura woke up and sat down she was near water she could hear it with her ninja senses and she saw she was lying on grass and in the middle of a forest like meadow. She stood up to see she was in her all black ninja outfit. Then there was noise moving and she got defensive stance.

She noticed a girl wearing a black dress coming towards her until she was a few feet away from Sakura that Sakura thought she was staring at a mirror but she knew better.

Who are you? Sakura asked staring intently at the girl that just smiled and pointed at Sakura. I'm you silly the girl responded smiling at Sakura showing her white teeth and her emerald eyes sparkled in amusement.

You're the inner aren't you? Sakura asked the girl came closer as Sakura went back keeping a distance incase this was all a trick. The girl just smiled and disappeared and reappeared in front of Sakura in a blink of an eye.

There is no need to be caution with me Sakura I know you because I am you so I know all about you I am like your mirror. I am what you are not or rather I act like you would love to the girl spoke staring at Sakura's emotionless eyes. The girl smiled softy while Sakura just stared.

You don't have to pretend with me Sakura I understand. Sakura someone is going to melt that ice you have surrounded your heart in it's only a matter of time the girl spoke looking at Sakura with a serious face. Sakura scoffed at the comment.

Yea right and I don't have ice in my heart its perfectly normal and I don't need anyone to touch my heart I am perfectly content with my life and being attached and emotion is weakness Sakura spoke emotionlessly with a blank face the inner stare in disbelief.

Is killing at usually a daily bases a life you want to live? Since when is showing emotion and being attached to someone a weakness? The last time I remember is that being attached to someone is a good thing and it improves you instead of weaken you the girl yelled angrily towards Sakura. Sakura noticed that the skies darken and that the clouds where gray and it was a dark place not the peaceful meadow it was before.

It happens to her and looked what happen she ended up dead like a fool I told her not to get attached and she ended up dead leaving me alone in a place like that with the enemy surrounding me. I was alive because Sasori found me in the right moment and saved me. Orochimaru killed her and I will have my revenge he made me an avenger and I learned from the academy that emotion is weakness and that weakness holds you back and will get you killed Sakura responded the same line that the academy had told them about weakness and the fact that she saw her partner fall dead during a mission her partner was her best friend since they enter the academy and to see her partner fall took a toll on Sakura and that was the beginning of all the terrible things that happened to Sakura.

Sakura looked at the mirror image of herself only happier and lively she was colorful and Sakura couldn't be happy like the mirror it wasn't fair after everything that happened she doesn't deserve to be happy she doesn't deserve to be alive that's probably why she is slowly dying inside.

It seemed to Sakura that death is the only thing that will be peaceful in her life. The mirror went to touch Sakura but as she did the girl disappeared. Sakura felt herself drift away from her mind and land in a nightmare. Death was everywhere and Sakura was in the middle of it.

With Sasuke and Itachi and the mysterious guy outside of Sakura's mind

Sasuke, Itachi, and the mysterious stranger that has red hair were waiting outside the room that had Sakura in it. Sasuke was pacing back and forth waiting for news of the bubble gum haired girl.

Itachi was on the phone most likely talking to Sakura's siblings. The stranger was sitting down head in his hands waiting news of the girl. Sasuke ran a hand through his chicken ass hair impatiently.

Sakura's guardians were with her and they stared worriedly at their charge with concern. When Sakura started to whimper they ran to tell the males that were outside.

"What's wrong is she ok? Is she awake?" Sasuke asked concern lacing in his voice. Itachi looked wryly and surprised at his brother for Sasuke never showed any emotion when it came to anybody not after the accident he had when he was younger.

"She seems to be having a nightmare she is whimpering and whispering the words "no" and "stop it" apparently its damaging her and it seems to be getting worse go and get a doctor quickly," Daichi informed before anyone could leave they all heard screaming and ran into the room to see Sakura trashing around in the bed and screaming like she was being tortured.

Haru ran full speed to get a doctor or a nurse to come and help Sakura he wasn't going to let anything happen to her. All the others could do it hold Sakura down so she wouldn't hurt herself with all the trashing. It was a struggle to hold her down for her strength was very impressive for her height.

"NO! STOP IT! STOP IT! LEAVE THEM ALONE! NO! NOT HER! SASORI HELP ME! SASORI NO! STOP IT! NO! DON'T HURT THEM! NOT THEM!" Sakura screamed Sasuke stared at Sakura's pained expression and his chest clenched once again and just held her down.

The nurse came in and quickly put a calm injection inside Sakura but after Sakura just whimpered and still had the pain expression still visible on her face. The doctor that treated her came out of the room after kicking the boys out.

"So what is wrong with her?" Itachi asked the doctor only to be looked at weirdly. "Are you part of her family? This only for her family to hear I'm afraid," the doctor stated. The mysterious man rose and stared at the doctor with reddish brown eyes.

"I am part of her family tell me what is wrong with her," the male demanded the doctor sensed the authority and complied. "It appears that she is suffering from a disease that is causing her into depression and it is next to impossible to cure. The blood seems to be from a fight she has either she recently had or a scar from the past and it seems she is slowly on the road to insanity and it is talking about death as we speak in her sleep. The way to keep her sanity is to make her happy and keep her mind off of anything depressing," the doctor diagnosed looking back the room that held the young girl.

Sasuke and the rest of the males stared at disbelief at what they just heard. This couldn't be happening not now and not with her! Sasuke thought staring at the door where the emerald eyed girl lay.

"Making her happy is next to impossible. She hasn't cracked a smile for years now," a voice spoke from behind the males they turn to see three figures staring at them. The doctor looked in disbelief. "She is only fifteen as the records show she has no previously serious illness to show this much pain," the doctor fumbled looking at Sakura's siblings.

"A lot can happen in fifteen years doctor," Kankuro answered walking towards the door where his young sister lay in a sleeping slumber only quietly whimpering. "What did you give her?" Temari asked looking at the doctor with a questioning look.

"Just pain medications," the doctor explained Temari shook her head and looked towards her sister. "It won't work. Sakura's body will refuse it and it will just lay waste. Only her medications will work on her body for it has grown accused to it," Temari explained injecting Sakura with something before the doctor questioned Sakura's whimpers ceased and there was only breathing heard.

"It's been a long time hasn't it?" Gaara voice spoke everyone turned to see who he was speaking to only to reply with Temari and Kankuro going pale at the sight.

"Indeed it has"
