Sasuke's view:

Through my wounds, blood, weak state and blindness, the battle raged on for what seemed like ages. The final attack I had planned was used to finish off the last of them, my lightning element I used in my battle with Itachi.

Hundreds of dead corpses surrounded me. People returned to their normal state and it looked as if I brutally murdered human beings.

I collapsed backward onto the unforgiving, bloodstained wet ground and let the rain fall and wash away the blood

Unconsciousness seemed not so far away as footsteps were heard walking towards me

"is Sakura back already?" I thought to myself. But as I listened closer their were 2 sets of footsteps, one hissing sound like a snake "Madara and Kabuto.."

"he killed ALL of them. ALL of Orochimaru-sama's finest creations.. DESTROYED!" Kabuto hissed furiously

"easy Kabuto.. They will no longer be needed in the war once we have the child along with your part of the plan, it will be MORE than enough"

They got closer, walking over the dead corpses

"Sasuke-kun" they found me.

They ran over to me, kneeling over me.

"he is badly injured, but still conscious. I see Sakura-chan must have gotten away with the child ne Sasuke-kun?

I turned to the side and spat out blood I had started choking on before answering

"Aa."

"why did you let her get away?" Kabuto hissed.

"she is a trained, skilled kunoichi. I didn't let her get away, she got away while I was being attacked" I lied. wanting to hurl when I admitted Sakura was skilled.. Though it was true.

"I see… there is question of where your loyalty lies I'm afraid Sasuke-kun.." Madara spoke sadly while picking one of my arms up and draping it over one shoulder while Kabuto got my other arm. They hoisted me off the ground

"where shall we go now Madara Uchiha?" Kabuto questioned

"there are plenty of hidden bases miles from here, I did not come unprepared to leave"

"Aa. Lead the way then"

"we will teleport there so no traces are left if anyone should come in search of us"

"hai"

"wait. Madara"

"yes Sasuke-kun?"

"I want… Itachi's eyes"

Silence fell. The only sound to be heard was the fall of rain, crashing on the hard ground

"very well. I knew you would come around to the idea. Though Sasuke-kun, this is sudden.. What are your intensions?"

"my intensions are strictly loyal" I assured him

He narrowed his eyes, seeing the loophole but dismissing it

"as you wish Sasuke-kun… the kyuubi will be captured by other means as well as the child while you recover"

And we were gone. Gone from that horrid village

The idea of gaining Itachi's eyes was needed to give me enough power to destroy whomever I want. My loyalty is faltering and torn between both sides.

"there's a place so dark you cant see the end. Skies cock back and shock that which can't defend, The rain then sends dripping acidic question. Forcefully, the power of suggestion. Then with the eyes tightly shut, looking through the rust and rotten dust, a small spot of light floods the floor and pours over the rusted world of pretend. The eyes ease open, AND IT'S DARK AGAIN."

Sakura's view:

Before going back I rushed to my house, grabbing fresh supplies and weapons since I had left mine in the sound.

I grabbed my favorite assassin's outfit and pulled it on quickly.

It was like ANBU, but altered to fit my liking since I was even HIGHER rank than them. I only took strictly s-ranked missions.

The outfit was black and white as an ANBU uniform.

It was black booty shorts over fishnet leggings. And a white zip up blouse resembling my famous red one with the Haruno on the back in black, only it tighter and came up a little past my bell button. It was comfortable and efficient. I only wore it when I needed the confidence and with that it gave me more strength.

I pulled my long pink hair into a long ponytail and taped my arms a little past the bend of my elbow with black tape, slipping the arm warmers on over it.

I fastened the belt on my thigh and gathered all my stuff, quickly leaving when everything was in place

I vanished into a pile of Sakura blossoms, I wasn't going to take the time traveling there

It was raining when I got there and the smell of rotting flesh was very faint.

I rushed inside and looked at the mangled bodies and broken faces lying on the ground. Dead.

ALL of them were dead.

I searched the faces, slightly relieved to find that Sasuke was not upon the dead bodies, but that means Madara and Kabuto had gotten to him first.

His chakra lingered in a small pile on the ground where I guessed he was just before they found him.

I walked over to it and touched the familiar chakra spot and closed my eyes, it WAS Sasuke's.

"they were here.. But where could they be now?" my inner questioned "I don't know… we'll search the base for any kind of maps or such" "I doubt we will find anything, Madara is smart and wouldn't take that chance by leaving blueprints just lying around" "true.. But it doesn't hurt to check"

Stepping over the corpses I walked to the much hated building that was Madara's base.

It was huge, but I checked every single room in that damned building. So far, to no veil. I made it to the top floor, at the very end of the hallway there was a large door, I'm guessing the big granddaddy room of the building. If I was going to find anything at all.. It would be in that room

It was bound to have traps and what not, so cautiously I proceeded and kept an eye out. BOY was I right!

There were AT LEAST 85 traps JUST in that one hallway. Once I saw one right before it blew up or flung shit at me I deactivated it, barley making it in time 83 times

FINALLY, I made it to the huge doors and skillfully broke the locks by taking the whole damn thing off with one swift kick. It went flying inward and crashed on the floor against a desk

"take that motherfucker, trying to blow me up!" inner Sakura's eyes burned in furry while I stayed perfectly calm on the outside.

The room was HUGE! It had bookshelves everywhere, large safes were all around and a large desk was in the center.

"….we have to look through ALL of THAT?" inner Sakura fainted. I sighed and began my search. It will take forever, but If I find something valuable it would be worth it.

I replayed what Sasuke did for me and Emi over and over in my head

"he still cares…"

"when did he ever care in the first place?"

"oh shut up. I know you know he always did some what, and there's your proof he still has a soul, a soul that could be saved"

"I'm not interested in whether he still has a soul or not. I'm going to kill him along with Madara and that snake before they get Emi"

"you can't lie to yourself. You couldn't kill him even if you wanted to and we BOTH know it. Besides, he seemed pretty determined to keep you and Emi safe…"

"regardless, he is an s-rank criminal and traitor to the leaf, I kill upon sight. I lost my guard thinking of Emi but now I don't have to worry about her. Next time I see him I WILL kill him and his little friends"

"whatever you say warrior goddess. All I'm saying is stop lying to yourself. You still care for him deep down inside, I would know. I AM you"

"than you sound know I'm over him. I have Emi and that's all I need"

"but what about Emi? She calls him daddy"

"that's nothing a little remark about how evil he is wont cure"

"it could destroy her even more.."

I thought about what my inner said. Why did she have to be so fucking annoying?

If I killed Sasuke, and told Emi, would she hate me? Would she even listen to me when I explain to her why?

"see….."

I shut out my inner. As I said before, I will know what to do when I see his face.

"go ahead as you waste your days with thinking, when you fall everyone stands! Another day and you've had your fill of sinking. With the life held in your.. Hands are shaking cold.. These hands are meant to hold"

Emi's view:

After mommy left I did my best to not cry. I missed her already, and I worried about daddy

Would mommy be able to bring him back to me?

Flashback:

I looked into this black haired man's eyes and suddenly everything hit me, his entire past. His name was Sasuke uchiha

I saw visions of his whole life replay before my eyes

His clans slaughter

Becoming team 7

All his missions with them

The night he left mommy on a bench

Going to the snake after fighting uncle Naruto

Those horrible missions he went on for the snake

Meeting mommy and uncle Naruto along with some weird guy named Sai again

Forming his new team

Killing his brother

Meeting Madara Uchiha, that other man I don't like

And now where we are

I held onto him tighter while his past replayed in my head. I saw and knew everything about him after that, I know now that he was confused

I wanted to help him, I wanted to help him see that what he's doing is wrong, that he needs mommy more than he thinks

And he needs me as much as I need him right now

"DADDY!"

Flashback end

I knew right after I saw all those things and knew he fought to protect me that I could trust him

I loved my daddy and I hope he's okay! That awful pain in my head stopped finally and I felt much happier

"alright Emi, for the while that Sakura is out on her mission, you will be cared for by her old companions. I'm guessing she told you a little about them"

I nodded my head timidly. This lady was nice but she was scary

"good" she nodded her head and picked me up, placing me on her desk and giving me a pencil and some paper

"you can draw if you would like until they get here. Are you hungry or thirsty?" I looked down at the paper and nodded yes

"Shizune!" she yelled out, making me jolt slightly. She was really LOUD to!

A dark brown haired lady walked in, she looked really sweet and smiled when she noticed me

"yes Tsunade-sama?"

"get this child some food, she will be under our care and protection until Sakura gets back from her mission"

The nice lady nodded and rushed out, closing the door behind her

My mommy's name is Sakura? that's a pretty name!

I loved my mommy, I'm going to draw a picture for her!

I began drawing the picture in my head for my mommy. I hope she likes what I'm drawing!

"manage me, I'm a mess. Turn a page, I'm a book, half unread. I wanna be laughed at, Laughed with! Just because! I wanna feel weightless, and that should be enough"

Sakura's view:

AHA! I picked up a folded up map of coordinates and hideout locations. It was UNDER the floor of all things! I had torn apart the entire room, literally!

I had gotten a little… kinda… slightly pissed that I hadn't found ANYTHING yet a while ago, when I knocked over a bookshelf is when I heard the crack on a hollow spot in the floor

that's where I found THIS!

I would check all these locations, there were 36 of them. 4 of them were within 8 miles of here and I would begin with those and work my way out. This may take a little more than a month.. But at least I had no concerns for Emi's safety right now and it made me feel good inside

'Madara, Kabuto… Sasuke.. I'll find you even if I have to wipe every forest out, dry up every ocean. I will NOT let you touch Konoha or my child.

I flipped my wet hair and looked back into the hallway with all the traps. I couldn't leave evidence of DNA I had ever been here… I walked over, reactivating one of the traps, it would set all the others off as well.

Quickly I ran back, jumping out of a nearby window just as the building exploded, landing in a rolling crouch

I looked back and watched the building collapse, the first consuming every last piece of it.

The fire danced in my eyes as the rain fell, I welcomed the cold droplets knowing they would get rid of my scent should any creatures be left.

I stood up, wiping my wet hair behind me and walking confidently toward the front gate of the village. Reaching into my pouch, I pulled out one of the most explosive, deadly kunai explosive tags and flung it behind me, directly into a building in the center of the village

While the kunai traveled I walked calmly out, knowing I would be out of the village in time

3... 2...1.… BOOOOM!

Buildings crashed, falling to rubble. The corpses would be getting a free cremation, and every evidence of me, Madara, the snake, and Sasuke would be completely obliterated.

I didn't look back to watch the village fall to ashes, but knew I did the right thing by completely freeing that land of it's cursed history

"alright Madara, that should signal I'm coming for you. You better be ready"

I smirked and leapt into the trees, beginning to make my way to the first hidden location on the map

"throw dirt on me, and grow a WILD FLOWER. But it's fuck the world, get a child out her. Yeah my life a bitch, but you know nothing' bout her. Been to hell and back , I can show you vouchers"

Emi's view:

I finished my drawing for mommy while eating tomato slices and apples and drinking apple juice

I was laying down on the floor on my belly, my arm propping up my head while I touched up some lines and figures on the drawing. My food and drink was next to me in reach. I hid in front of the desk where grandmother couldn't see, every now and them she would look over her desk, I would notice and throw my body over it, looking up at her and scrunching my nose, sticking out my touch and yelling "DON'T LOOK!" she would give me an amused look and return to what she was doing.

It was peaceful for hours and hours and I wondered how long it had been since I got here

I yawned and inspected my drawing, pleased with my work. I yawned again, louder and longer this time

Grandmother stood up and looked at me over the desk again. I threw myself over my drawing and looked up at here unpleased again

"STOP LOOKING AT IT!"

She chuckled and smiled amusedly at me

"I'm not! I'm not! But if your tired you can sleep for a few more hours until the other get here"

I thought for a minute, staring up at her

"if I go to sleep, you might try to look at my drawing!" I stuck my tongue out again

She laughed and looked down at me

"I wont, I promise!" her yellow eyes looked so cheery and loving at me, it made me feel warm

"pinky swear!"

I held up my pinky, she leaned all the way over her desk and took my small pinky in her long, lean, polished one.

"pinky swear" she smiled warmly and I beamed a bright, tired smile back.

I folded up my picture and put it in my shirt, patting it a couple times before laying back down on the floor and closing my eyes

I heard shuffling and looked up to see grandmother above me, she took off her coat and bent down, gently picking my head up and placing her folded up coat under it for support

I smiled up at her in thanks. She brushed the hair from my face and smiled

"goodnight Emi"

"goodnight, grandmother" I closed my eyes but didn't miss the shocked expression on her face when I called her that.

I drifted off to sleep, thinking about my mommy and my daddy. I hope mommy and daddy will come back soon so I can show them my drawing!
