It was midnight and sakura could not sleep. She went out into the kitchen to find something to eat. When she went out she saw kisime and sasori in their pajamas eating cereal. Sakura wasn't surprised. She walked right passed them got an apple and sat right next to kisime.
Sakumo was right about to walk into the kitchen when he heard talking.
"Hey kitten" said kisime.
"Hey kisime." Sakura said.
"You know it's not that bad."
Silence
"I mean, look at your team. Sasuke is off trying to kill Itachi. Kakashi doesn't even teach you anything. Naruto is the only thing you have left of team 7 so why don't you protect what you most love. I mean we are all doing that. All of us only joined to protect someone or something. Think about it."
" Even your brother."
Sakumo stood there listening. To see his sisters reaction. But she didn't move. She just sat there like she didn't care.
"I really doubt that. "
"You know he is here to protect you. He thought that being in a powerful group he would be able to watch over you and protect you. He had reasons to do what…he did."
"NO , he did not have fucking reasons. He could have stayed there with me and took care of mom and helped me grow up. Beat up the bullies, help with the fights I had with my friends, or even help me with guy trouble."
Sakura was crying by this time. She was clenching her fists and teeth.
"He could have been there for me. And I would have to watch my mother die." She whispered the last part.
"He means nothing to me anymore; I don't know him at all." Sakura said in a small voice.
Sakumo felt like he was stabbed in the heart. But he knew something like this would happen.
Sasori looked over at the girl next to him. She was asleep and her head slide onto his shoulder. Kisime already went to bed.
"She's sleeping you can come out now."
Sakumo walked out and looked at his little sister and took her from sasori's arms and held her bridal style. He walked sakura to her bedroom across the hall from his. He laid her on her bed and saw she had tears still in her eyes. He whipped them away and walked out of her room.
The next day sakura woke up really early. Maybe like 2:00 am. She couldn't get to sleep so she went to train. No one was up. So she slipped out to the field.
"Ughhhh I hate waking up and not falling back to sleep" said Sakumo.
He steps out of his bed and looked out the window and stood there for a second.
"Hmm this can let me see her in action."
Sakumo crept down stairs out the back door. He was watching her get her gloves on and watched her carefully.
Sakura was warming up by throwing a couple of kuni's or stretching here and there
She then started putting chakra in her hands and smashing through everything getting out all her anger.
She started thinking about her friends back home, her sensei's, her mother, naruto, and her home.
Sakura was getting a little tired she was doing many things now but she missed everything back home and didn't even know she started crying. Sakura was choking on her sobs lying in the middle of the destroyed training field. She was panting for her breath.
Sakumo was shocked. She was truly a second Tsunade. Even better.
Sakura got up and wiped her tears and dusted herself off.
Oh how she missed her family.
Then Sakura screamed in a painful way. The seal…. It was burning?
"AaHHHhhh ugghhhh"
Sakumo rushed to her side but when she saw him there she pushed him away and told him not to touch her.
"I am a big girl I can take care of myself. I am a medic after all!"
"You're my little sister I think I should be able to help." He hissed.
"You don't have a sister. She died a long time ago." Sakura said with no emotion.
Sakura just looked at the ground and walked away after she healed herself a little bit.
"You know you have to listen to me now."
"Fuck that"
"YOUR not my MOM."
"Yes I know but I AM your teacher sakura so you must listen to me."
"I am only doing this for my family." sakura said quietly.
"WHAT FUCKING FAMILY SAKURA. Huh?"
"MY FUCKING FRIENDS. NARUTO, INO, KAKASHI SENSEI, TSUNADE, AND ALL THE PEOPLE YOU TOOK ME FROM!"
"That's my real family now. "
"whatever."
"Today we start meditating. For you to master the seal you must connect to your inner self."
"An inner self? What is that like another one of you?"
"Yes, precisely." No try to connect to her and find out her name."
So sakura sat down on a patch of grass and sat straight. She couldn't hear or see anything in her mind.
What is her talking about inner self?
ME you idiot. Jeeez sometime I wonder how you're the smartest ninja in kohona.
YOU? You mean you're my inner! I have always know about you since mother ….died.
That is because your emotional walls broke down and allowed me to enter.
Oh. Well Hello then.
I never got to know your name. What is it?
It is Sakira.
Oh hello Sakira I am Sakura (:
I know I am you sakura and you are me but now I must go. And so must you.
That's when sakura opened her eyes and looked around and noticed it was dark out.
"Sakura! Come in and eat dinner if your done training. Hurry you'll catch a cold." Screamed Sakumo.
"Wow never knew you actually cared. And I'm not hungry so I'm going to bed." Sakura said while walking by. "
Sakumo was a little hurt but knew one of these times she will forgive him….hopfully.
