One more chapter and it's over
I stared at Sakura as she walked through the garden.
The girl is just too beautiful.
Instantly Deidara ran up to me and handed me an envelope and winked at me.
I opened it up and read the contents.
All of the Akatsuki were dead except the ones loyal to me.
The war is over.
I will finally be able to take her back.
I rushed outside to greet Sakura with the good news but she wasn't there.
"Sakura!" I called but there was no answer only the sound of wind and falling petals.
"Guards!" I shouted making them all spring into action as I rushed into the town looking for any traces of her.
Everyone we interrogated never saw her today.
Even Sasuke who was in jail had heard nothing or even spoke to anyone since he was placed in jail.
"I don't know what I'm going to do…" I told Deidara not holding back my anger and frustration.
"I understand, un. I just wish Tobi could be out here helping us, yeah." He muttered making turn to stare.
"Tobi's missing?" I asked making Deidara's eyes widen.
"You don't think he stole her, yeah?" He asked making me shake my head and run outside the city walls to the sands beyond.
It took eight days of running through the dry sand and cold heartless nights.
I found a cabin that looked suspicious enough that I knew she had to be there.
For some reason I found myself hesitating outside.
Do I want to kill the man who kidnapped my Sakura?
Yes.
But do I want to kill Tobi?
That had me waiting until I heard Sakura's shout of pain.
Rushing inside I saw Tobi and a doctor taking care of Sakura as she had her child.
I turned away unable to look.
If it was my own kid I probably would have but Sasuke's?
No.
"Tobi why is Sakura here instead of at the castle?" I asked blankly making him turn to look at me his eyes widening.
"You thought good boy Tobi was actually a bad boy Tobi?" He asked sounding shrill.
"Think of it from my view." I answered making him pause then nod.
"Sakura didn't want you to see her like this so she had me take her to my safe house." He answered.
"That makes sense… I guess." I mused thinking of the irony.
The man I assumed to be killing and torturing Sakura turned out to be saving her from humiliation from me.
Ironic.
"It's a girl." The doctor said making us turn around and stare.

"Why does the child have red hair?!" I demanded knowing I never had sex with Sakura.
"Oh… I thought it was Sasuke's." Sakura answered playing with the child's red hair.
"Who else could it have been?!" I demanded making her turn and stare at me oddly.
"You know that long lost cousin of yours named Gaara?" She asked making me glare.
That red haired- no cussing won't help.
I need to find the boy and murder him…
"It is kind of ironic isn't it?" She asked the child making me glare harder.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The True Story~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We all stared at the child's dark pink hair.
It almost seemed like a noble purple.
"Sakura?" I asked feeling nervous as she held her child adoringly.
"Yes Sasori-kun?" She answered making me stand my ground and get ready.
"Would you marry me? I've been waiting for the war and threats to be eliminated before I asked you." I informed her making her turn her shock eyes to mine.
"Yes." She replied simply and held her child out to me.
"Would you like to hold her?" Sakura asked making me reach out protectively holding the baby against my chest staring down at her beautiful features.
"She's tiny." I breathed feeling slightly odd as though this child could be mine.
"You are just the man I thought you were. So yes. I would love to marry you and I bet Kai would love you as a dad." Sakura said standing up to kiss me.
I kissed her back holding her to me as protectively as I held her child.
I knew this would be the end to my emptiness and beginning to a new life.
"I always loved you."
