By the time the fireworks ended, it was about 8:30 pm.

Naruto and Sakura were already on they're way back to the village. It was a beautiful night. Besides the moonlit night, it was awkward between Naruto and Sakura.

" Oh my gosh, I think I'm still red! I can't stop thinking of what might of happened back there!" Sakura thought in her mind.

" Oh Man! I hope she isn't mad!" Naruto said in his mind.

Both were so busy thinking of what might of happened , they didn't notice that they were already in the village, until Sakura noticed.

" Oh, we're here" Sakura said, breaking the awkward silence.

" Oh Yeah, well, I'll walk you to your house" Naruto said.

" Well, if you want" Sakura said.

Both start to walk to Sakura's house. It was pretty closer than Naruto thought.

" Umm, Thanks for Today Naruto, I Really had fun." Sakura said, standing outside her house.

" No Problem, I Had fun too, You know, maybe we should do something again, just the two of us" Naruto said blushing.

" Yeah, we should" Sakura said blushing.

" Well, have a good sleep, see you tomorrow" Naruto said, while leaving.

" Ya see you tomorrow" Sakura said, as she was about to go inside, but stopped and turned back to Naruto.

"Naruto!" Sakura yelled out.

Right when Naruto turned around, Sakura gave him A Big Hug! Naruto was so surprised. Still hugging him Sakura Said, " I Know you and everyone else is worried about me, but I'm ok, really Iam" Sakura said while letting go of him.

" Well, Goodnight " Sakura said as she started to head inside her house.

When Sakura left Naruto Was blushing.

"Sakura, Hugged me….. SAKURA HUGGED ME! AND WE ALMOST KISSED!"

. . .

"YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Naruto yelled out, running towards his apartment.

Meanwhile, Sakura is in her house thinking about the date.

" I Wonder what might of become of us if we kissed" Sakura thought.

" Come On Sakura, you and Naruto are only friends" Sakura said to herself.

" Come to think of it, where's mom?" Sakura questioned. She starts heading upstairs, to see if there's a note or something.

When she entered her room, she noticed there was a small box, and a letter next to it, on her desk.

" What's This?" Sakura asked herself, as she approached the mysterious box, and letter.

Sakura grabbed the letter and read:

The item in the box will give you the truth about you. Then after that it's up to you whether you want to stay in the village, or leave it.

" The truth?" Sakura said.

She turned her head at the box. She hesitated, but still opened it. Inside the box, was a beautiful choker necklace. The pendant was shaped as the moon. She lifted the choker.

" Why does this look familiar?" She asked herself.

Suddenly, the choker starts glowing and floating. Then it quickly attached itself to Sakura's neck.

Sakura Is struggling to get out of it's clutches.

" Ugh, what is this thing! I got to get it o-" Sakura thought, but being interrupted by the control of the choker.

The choker seemed to be showing Sakura images of her childhood. Because of the choker controlling her, she fell on her bed, and is not able to move, but she is conscious.

" Uh, I-I Can't move! These images, it's like my brain is absorbing so much memory all at once! I-I know what these images are, their my memories!" Sakura said to herself.

Minutes went by, and finally, she learned the truth. Sakura, is still on her bed, shocked and happy.

" Heh, so that's it." Sakura said smiling. She stands up, and goes to the mirror, and smiles gently, then her smile turned to a sad face.

She grabs the letter, and looks it over again.

" Your writing always sucked you know" Sakura said.

Sakura starts changing her clothes, to her ninja clothes. She gets all her tools ready. And before she was going to leave, she took one last glance at the picture team 7 took.

" Sorry Naruto, Thank-you for everything, I owe you for everything, But now It's my turn to leave" Sakura said in her mind.

Already at the main gate of the village, Sakura turned around.

" Goodbye everyone, and thank-you, take care of the village, I hope all of you become stronger." Sakura said, while getting a flashback of everyone that she had a bond with.

And just like that, Sakura was gone. Sakura left into the darkness of the night.

The only question is, where is she going?
