Chapter Eight
Disclaimer: You know the drill
Sakura reached over to her arm and pulled the kunai out. She threw it aside and took out each of the others… slowly and painfully.
I want to feel pain… I want to feel what it's like…
That's my Sakura!
Sakura then took out the last kunai in her hand. She took it into her hand and wiped the blood onto her shirt.
"C'mon… you think you can take me? Well… let's see then," Sakura raised the Crescent Blade and Started to swing it around in a circle. Kira smirked.
"Ok then," with one quick motion, he lounged at her she dodged, he threw another kunai at her, she continued to twirl the shaft and deflected it.
"She is good," he thought aloud, Sakura started to run at him, the blade motionless in her hands, she then jumped up and started to rotate herself in a 360 and then sent the blade crashing down on his head.
Pat… pat… pat…pat…
…………………………………………………………………
Sasuke ducked. It ran, Sasuke threw a kunai at it. It stopped and dropped to the ground with a thud.
Finally, he thought, it had taken him hours, but he finally killed it.
A deer. A freakin' deer. He walked over to it and picked it up onto his shoulders.
"Sakura's gonna be pissed off…" he whispered to himself.
"Oh well."
"ARHG!" Sasuke dropped the deer from his shoulders,
That was Sakura! Sasuke thought for a minute. Then sped off towards the camp. Further on he could sense blood and chakra. Even closer he could see Sakura's pink hair and another. Then he arrived. And gasped at what he saw. Deeply engraved in a mans head was a Crescent Blade. But even surprisingly. Sakura was covered in blood.
"Sakura!" the man dropped to the ground with the Blade still in his head. A large puddle was forming around his head and body, while Sakura stood stark still. Her hands trembled and her eyes flashed a deep red. Her hair was wild looking and her shirt was torn and bloodied.
"Sakura!" Sasuke called out again.
"I…" Sakura continued to tremble.
"Killed him…" Sakura gave in and started to cry bitterly. Her hair encircled around her head and her already bloody hands were covered in more blood and tears. Sasuke didn't know how to react. He had never seen Sakura in this kind of state before. Sure, he'd seen her cry, but this was different. She was shaking… and hurting badly… she was truly upset. All Sasuke could do was stare at her, spellbound.
"Uchiha… what did it feel like to kill someone for the first time?" Sasuke sighed calmly.
"Sakura… please I hate to see you this way. Stop it please." He said, Sakura lifted her head and looked over to the source of the voice.
"Answer the question, please." She said unfeelingly,
"Sakura… that's a very hard question. Leave it." He said, Sakura let her head loll to her chest again,
"Answer the question please." She repeated in the same tone. Sasuke sighed.
"It felt very wrong. And sad. Happy?" he said, Sakura forced a smile onto her sad face.
"Sure. Whatever Uchiha. I'm going to bed for a little while. Ok?" Sasuke nodded and walked over to her.
"Get some rest. You need it. Just pretend this never happened." Sasuke took her hand and guided her to her tent and tucked her in.
"Thanks… Sasuke." She said, Sasuke gave her a smile.
"No problem, Sakura-chan."

She is as strong as I've heard. Yes… she's the one. Defiantly. But… how will I get her to Release? How will I get her to find herself? Well… I will find that out in time… but… it will get harder to hide the little girl who cries behind the rage that others see. Let that keep itself at the back of your head, Haruno Sakura-san. Yes… keep that in mind…
