Chapter 7 : I am Sakura
"Keep your guards up. We don't know who we're dealing with." noted Shikamaru.
"SAKURA-CHAN!"
Naruto saw Sakura unconscious and leaning by the tree. Slowly, Sakura's eyes started to open.
"Naruto?"
"Sakura-chan what happened to you?"
"Someone attacked me and dropped me unconscious."
"Yeah? Really Sakura? However, I can't see any part of you that might be physically attacked. In your features, not a mental attack either." Shikamaru said.
"Really brilliant, Shikamaru-kun."
"Stop acting already. I know your past. You are just adopted by the Harunos. Tell me, who are you?"
"Is that true Sakura-chan?" Naruto interrupted.
"Seems like you did your homework, Shikamaru-kun."
Sakura pushed Naruto away from her with one finger that sent Naruto to Sasuke's place.
"Well since you know so much about that thing, might as well that I give you more info."
"What do you mean Sakura-chan?"
"I am Sakura. Sister of the Akatsuki leader Pein. Happy now?"
"So you are on Akatsuki? You are a colleague of Itachi. You betrayed us!" Sasuke said with angst.
"Oh come on Sasuke. Don't start lecturing me with those things. It doesn't suit you."
"You are smart Sakura. How can you act innocent for over a decade? Did you really plan all of this?" Shikamaru said while making himself comfortable by leaning on a nearby tree.
"Not really. I never thought that I will be attached to the people of Konoha and I also didn't thought that Uchiha Sasuke will go to a pedophile to have more power."
She smiled teasingly to Sasuke making him red with anger.
"Sadly, he didn't managed to defeat Itachi although he defeated Orochimaru and went back here in Konoha.
"So you never had a crush on Sasuke?"
"Never. I would admit that he is handsome but I think Itachi is more handsome! Don't you think so too?" Sakura beamed a smile at them.
"I don't really observe that." Shikamaru said.
"That is not the issue here you bitch!" Sasuke snapped.
"I'm sorry Sakura but we have to eliminate you quickly." Shikamaru said.
"Is that so? Then I'd like to see you try." Sakura smiled making Sasuke lose control and attack her. Sakura simply dodged his attacks.
"Why are you so angry with me Sasuke?"
"It's because you keep insulting me!"
"Eh?"
"And you also deceived me. I really thought that you can help me in rebuilding my clan."
"Really? I thought you want Karin as your wife. Remember you told me that she was stronger than me?"
"Yeah and now, I'll show you that you are weak."
Sasuke appeared in front of her and kicked her at the stomach. Sakura was thrown in the ground.
"See Sakura? You are still weak."
Sakura smirked and stood up.
"You are the one who is weak, Uchiha Sasuke. What kind of oh-so-great ninja lets themselves be distracted by a mere kiss in the middle of a mission?"
"So you knew?"
"Of course. You wouldn't want someone to kill you so easily, do you?"
