Tsunade: Sukai doesn't own the Naruto series. If she did, she would also be in it and the president of Shino's fanclub. :)

Making A New Future

Chapter Eight

Written By: The MysteriousRed

Team Seven, their client, and Haku finally made their way across the river and were almost to Tazuna's house. Naruto and Sasuke kept glancing at the pinkette who was humming softly to herself. Then onyx eyes met bright blue eyes. Naruto just shrugged and Sasuke sighed. Sakura then stopped. Her eyes were narrowed dangerously and she was glaring at one area in front of her.

"Duck!"

As if like a game of dominos, they all went down. First Sakura, then Kakashi, Tazuna, Naruto, Haku, and lastly, Sasuke. The tree behind them was pierced with a rather large sword. A man that looked quite evil stood ontop of it. Smirking down on the rest of them. Everyone, except for Tazuna, saw his gaze linger on Haku. Haku just stared back at him, as if they were sending each other mental messages, which they probably were.

"Momichi Zabuza," Kakashi stated.

"So, I'm known by the famous Copy-Cat Nin Kakashi, eh?" Zabuza chuckled darkly.

"Wow, for a rogue nin, he sure seems like the type to go after little boys, ne?" Naruto whispered in Sasuke's ears, unfotunately for them, Zabuza heard.

"I am NOT gay!" growled the missing nin.

"Sure, and I'm the daughter of Orochimaru and loves to make out with snakes in her free time," Sakura rolled her eyes. "Just so you know, you do seem like the type to go after little boys, like you're some sort of pedophile."

Zabuza glared at the twelve year old female in front of him. He then smirked.

"So you think you are tough?"

"I don't think."

"Oh?"

Sakura smirked, "I know I am."

"Oh really? Tell me, what's your name?"

"Haruno Sakura, the princess of the Haruno clan."

"The Haruno clan? Never heard of them."

"No one has, they only them as a civillian family residing in Konoha. But, if you rearrange the letters in ther name you get Hanuro."

"So, you are the spirit holder. Interesting, I might actually consider keeping you as a pet."

At this Sakura frowned.

"I don't like being a pet. I'm human ya know."

Zabuza only smirked, unable to see that Kakashi had taken the time to get behind the swordsman. Haku, however, saw this and threw a handful of senbons at the masked jounin.

Sakura, Naruto, and Sasuke looked at the girly looking boy.

"So you are a spy," Sasuke said.

"Of course, although, I'm happy that I was a spy for this group. Sakura-chan is quite a looker. And not only that, she's a princess."

"I'm a princess, yes. But no way in hell do I act like one!"

Sakura lunged towards Haku and aimed a non-chakra induced fist to his chest. At the last second, Haku had dodged and was standing next to Zabuza. Smirking Sakura used her strength, not the one Tsunade taught her to use, and pulled a rather large tree out that was next to the one with Zabuza and Haku. She swung it around like an over sized baseball bat and made contact with the other tree, thus, resulting in having that tree and those around it to be knocked down. Placing the tree back in its place and healing the roots, Sakura turned back to the others.

"Now, do I act like a princess?"

Numbly, Tazuna, Haku, and Zabuza shook their heads. Before anyone could do anything Zabuza fainted. Seriously. He out right fainted, along with Haku. Although that didn't surprise anyone much. I mean, he looked so girly! Anyways, two figures hidden in the shadows grabbed Zabuza and Haku and disappeared. Sasuke tensed and his sharingan activated. Naruto growled and his once blue eyes were stained red. Sakura just grinned like an idiot.

'Maybe, we can change more than what is needed to have a better future,' thought Sakura.
