Can that girl really be my...

Child?

He shook his head as he began to rub his temples and deactivate sharingan, he was almost totally drained of power, especially for having the sharingan activated for such a long amounf of time...

Growling in frustration, Itachi strode over to where Sakura was and roughly nudged her in the side as he watched her face for any reactions whatsoever...

Her emerald eyes slowly opened as she pushed herself off the ground and into a sitting position; Itachi narrowing his eyes on her as he slammed her against a nearby wall, breath fanning against her neck...

Something gleamed on Sakura's hand as Itachi inspected it and let a deadly smirk grace his lips as he parted them and spoke in a void tone.

"I see you married the fool..."

Sakura let tears fall from her now closed eyes as she acted without realizing what she had done until it was already too late to turn back the hands of time; far too late...

Her arm raised as she quickly brought her hand down against the side of the Uchiha's face, causing his head to snap to the side from the force of the slap...

"Shut the hell up!" Sakura cried as she stood up and tried to make a break for it.

Itachi was not the one for mercy of any sort, instead he tackled Sakura to the ground fingers wrapped around her neck as deprived her of the oxygen she dearly needed; Itachi didn't seem to give a shit he was too intent on choking the woman underneath him...

"Who is she." Itachi demanded.

Sakura closed her eyes as she parted her lips and screamed from the top of her lungs...

"Your daughter!"

Once that was said, Itachi released his death grip from around Sakura's neck and pushed himself away from her, but before doing so he took hold of her left hand and removed the ring from her finger, tossing it to the side as he seated himself on the ground...

Sakura did nothing but take in as much oxygen as she could at the moment, her vision blurred as oncoming tears made themselves known, rolling down her cheeks as she stared up at the ceiling...

"I hate you..." They both whispered simultaneously, not even noticing what they had said.

Author's Note: Sorry for not updating as quickly as before; I feel like a bad person now, lol YES! Tomorrow is officially my LAST exam (Science) and the procedure for the exam is kinda stupid... Each person's seat is a station number and you will be given the exam paper and you have to start at your original seat and then keep going up and supposedly you will end up back at your seat at the very end or something? It's really dumb also I wasn't there that day so I missed it all and now I'm kinda screwed... XXD

"Kakashi-sensei, what's going on!?!" Naruto asked the older man ahead of him.

From in the distance the two males could make out the destruction of their home village, Konohagakure; it was being destroyed and they weren't there to be able to save some of the villagers or even the village itself!

Growling with frustration, Naruto charged forwards as he quickened his pace; calling out to the gatekeeper, Naruto received no response...

Jumping as high as he could, Naruto managed to grab the top of the gate as he lifted himself up in order to get a glimpse of the ruined Konohagakure; once such a peaceful village but now there was hardly anything left!

Kakashi jumped over the gate as he and Naruto landed and began to search around the area for any signs of life or the ones responsible for this tragedy; all they were finding was dead bodies scattered all over the ground, blood staining buildings and other things...

Smoke billowed into the air as Naruto and Kakashi guessed bombs must have gone off a while ago, a ninja wouldn't have been able to do all this by themselves! Hearing as if Kakashi had growled momentarily, Naruto let one cross his mind.

"Sakura-chan!"

Kakashi looked at the now worried Naruto as he called out his former teammate's name, but to no avail; she wasn't answering him nor could he find her anywhere!

"Naruto, we have to split up; look for any survivors and all enemies will be disposed of."

Nodding his head, Naruto and Kakashi ran in opposite directions as they searched for and wide for any survivors of this horrid nightmare; but in reality this was all very real...

-

She could hear... yelling?

Mai let her emerald eyes open until they were half-lidden and she was slowly pushing herself off the ground and into a sitting position; her eyes now trained on Uzumaki Naruto... She felt like she was going to lose consciousness once again...

"N... Naruto..." She whispered; knowing the blonde haired male since she was only a child.

He snapped his head around as he acknowledged her, eyes rimmed with tears as he fruitlessly wiped them away; but they kept on falling. Mai shook her head for a second, trying to dissipate the dizziness...

And when Mai finally realized why Naruto was crying, she wish she hadn't... Naruto was holding the lifeless corpse of her dear father, Sai in his arms while he shook from all the sadness and sorrow within him...

She too began to cry as she crawled towards the two, fingers latching onto the material of her father's shirt as she pulled herself closer to him; stroking his cold cheek as she whispered sweet nothings to him.

"This is all a dream; I'll wake up anytime now..."

Sadly this was not a dream and now Mai was without a father and of her mother's whereabouts she had no clue... Naruto placed his hands on the crying girl's shoulders as he asked her a question; eyebrows knitted together.

"Mai, what happened; where is your mom?"

Sniffling but speaking through heart wrenching sobs; Mai looked downcast at her father's pale, dead face as she made a fist and punched the ground...

"That... that man... he killed dad..."

Naruto gave the girl a stern look as he turned her head to look at him.

"You have to be more descriptive."

Racking her brain for what the man looked like; Mai recalled seeing a pair of red eyes when she was fighting him.

"He has red eyes..." She mused.

"And he was wearing a black cloak with red clouds on it..."

Naruto glared as Mai was left totally oblivious; she looked at the outraged Naruto as he stood from his spot on the ground and balled both hands into a fist, threatening to unleash his true power to anyone who would get in his way of killing-

"Uchiha Itachi."

It was as if Mai hadn't heard Naruto utter out that name, for she was too busy speaking to her father, all she wished for was for all this to be a bad dream... But for some reason something inside of her was telling her that this was not and more like a nightmare become reality...

Her father's eyes were still opened, void ink orbs stared up at the skies above; where he was looking down on the village of Konohagakure or more specifically his daughter who had been so wonderful up to this point in life...

She would grow up to be a wise and beautiful woman just like her mother was...

-

"Mai, stay here; I'll-" He stopped in mid-sentence as a cloaked figure made himself known.

"Akatsuki..." Naruto breathed by the obvious outfit the person was wearing.

A sinister chuckle left the man's throat as his piercing purple eyes glared at the blonde haired boy just across from him. Naruto made a fist; this Akatsuki member... He doesn't remember this certain member, nor has he ever seen him before.

"Who are you?" Naruto demanded.

"Leader." The male stated in a rough voice.

Naruto stepped back as he took out a kunai; sure he was tired as hell from the previous mission he was on with Kakashi, but... He wasn't just going to stand there and do absolutely nothing while his village was destroyed!

No way!

-

As Mai watched from afar she began to flee the area, though not without her father; she tried to pull him with her to a safer area but she wasn't strong enough... Her muscles were tense and stiff as a tree as she tried with all her strength to drag her father away...

Becoming frustrated, Mai slowly let her hands fall to her sides as she stared at her father's face; letting her fingers brush against Sai's face Mai closed his eyes as she backed away from him and whispered an apologetic sorry for leaving her father alone...

"I'm such a coward..." She cried.

Watching as Naruto got into a fighting position, Mai slowly backed up and let out a squeak when she bumped into something, or more importantly someone! Turning her head as if in slow motion, Mai jumped backwards as her emerald eyes looked at the figure of an Akatsuki member with long blonde hair...

"Just leave me alone!" She shouted from the top of her lungs as soon as he came towards her.

"Kunoichi, I'm not going to hurt you." He informed her smartly.

Mai stopped as she stared wide-eyed at him in total disbelief; did the enemy just say that he was not going to cause her any harm!?! That's absurd, unless... Unless he was setting up a trap for her to fall into!?!

She took yet another step back as she glared at the male; why were people trying to tear her apart limb from limb? Was it amusing to them, was it some kind of sick game that they were playing, praying on the weak hearted and spirited...

Well, no more! Mai was taking a stand and this time she was not going to back down! If she would have to fight this man, then so be it; at least she would die honorably trying to protect this village that was a home for her for so many years; unfortunately no more to come...

"Your lying!" Mai cried.

Deidara laughed as Mai stared at him like he was some kind of lunatic; he looked at her once again, seeing more of her mother in her than before.

She was hardheaded, just like her mother...

Deidara advanced towards her as he easily dodged all of the punches and kicks that Mai threw his way; she was now thrown over his shoulder like a sac of potatoes; even though she punched his back mindlessly he wasn't letting go, not anytime soon...

I wouldn't harm a child that belongs to someone I love...

-

Nighttime was fast approaching as Sakura tried her best to stay awake; she couldn't fall asleep or else her chances of escaping this cabin were slim to none... Yawning quietly, Sakura covered her mouth with her hand as she watched Itachi...

He had closed his eyes about 15 minutes ago, but she wasn't just going to take that as her cue to leave; she had to be absolutely sure that Itachi was asleep, she had tried escaping Akatsuki years ago and failed miserably; one way or another Itachi had found her...

And it was more than likely that he would do the exact same thing this time around as well...

He wasn't one for mercy and he sure as hell wasn't going to show any for Sakura; even if they were somehow bound to the same child and had slept with another, none of that mattered any longer...

Itachi's chakra began to even out as his head cocked to the side, lips slightly parted as he continued to sleep on; though Sakura wasn't very convinced... Her fingers touched the chain around her neck as the cold metal rested against her neck...

Pushing herself off the wall, Sakura began to crawl lowly as she searched for the discarded ring Itachi had thrown across the cabin... It was getting darker and darker by the second and Sakura was finder harder to locate the whereabouts of the damn ring!

Feeling around for anything, Sakura slightly jumped when rain began to fall from the skies above and make a padding sound all around the cabin, her gaze swept to Itachi who stirred a little but quickly stopped moving soon after.

She had found it!

Slipping the chain through her chain, Sakura re-adjusted it around her neck just in case Itachi decided to throw it away once again, at least now it was hidden behind her shirt...

Now for the escaping part... Creeping towards the door, Sakura would stop momentarily whenever the floor creaked on a certain spot that Sakura stepped on, always turning her head to the side to look to see if Itachi had awakened.

He hadn't and Sakura was glad for that...

Yes, she was in front of the door; slowly Sakura gripped the knob, all the while watching Itachi for any movements while she turned the knob and slowly pulled open the door; it made a loud rustic sound and Sakura felt her heart leap into her throat as she slowly turned her head to look at a fully awakened Uchiha Itachi staring at her!

Shutting the door as quickly as she could as soon as she managed to escape the cabin, Sakura then began to run for her dear life; knowing that if Itachi caught up to her she would surely be dead meat...

Sakura didn't even know where she was at the moment as she looked around and picked a random direction to run for; which was to the left.

She could hear the door being thrown off its hinges as Itachi's footsteps could be heard even through the pounding rain all around them... Sakura had to be careful not to slip on the now muddy ground she was running on...

Almost as if she had jinxed herself, Sakura lost her footing as she slid to the floor and ended up backed up into a tree as Itachi's body towered over hers, his sharingan activated as he tried to lock their gazes...

Sakura gasped in surprise as Itachi came closer to her, his breath against her neck as she shivered from his sudden actions and because she was now soaking wet and freezing cold...

It was as if they couldn't move away from each other, no matter how hard Sakura was trying to move away from him or do something; all she could do was stare at Itachi, lips slightly parted like she wanted to say something.

He didn't know why, but when Itachi looked at Sakura's face it made him... nearly lose control over his sudden urges that he was having at the moment. The urge to hold her, the urge to kiss her and make her his again...

It was wrong and would never work; the first time he had thought that he had actually fallen in love was just... a mistake?

But, in the rain Sakura looked almost angelic?

Very slowly, Itachi brought his face closer and closer to Sakura and before he knew it only a small space was separating their lips from one another... His addicting scent was driving Sakura wild as she prayed that nothing like this would ever happen...

This was a mistake...

-

"Where are you taking me!?!" Mai shrieked as Deidara continued to run throughout the forest.

"To your mother..." Deidara spoke.

Mai repeated his words as she stopped kicking and screaming at Deidara, instead she let a few tears slip past her now closed eyes as she asked him a question.

"Why?"

Actually, not even Deidara could answer that question; he too wanted to see Sakura and make sure that she was okay and unharmed...

Sensing his confusion, Mai left it at that as she let herself be carried away by Deidara who was sensing out Sakura's chakra and yet he could also feel Itachi's immense amount of chakra near Sakura's...

Picking up speed, Deidara flew throughout the forest and finally let Mai down as they both began to travel together throughout the forest of Konohagakure; though they both stopped in the tracks as they watched Itachi and Sakura near each other...

Mai instantly grew angry at the thought of her mother forgetting about Sai just like that and on top of that, kissing the man that had kill him! She wasn't going to stand for this!

"Mom, get away from him!" Mai cried.

Sakura and Itachi's heads snapped to where the source of the voice was coming from and sure enough, Itachi saw fellow Akatsuki member, Deidara standing behind Mai as she began running towards him.

Sakura instantly tensed up and pushed Itachi away from her as she ran for her daughter. Itachi merely glared at Deidara who stood there watching Sakura; a slight smile gracing his lips as he looked at the pink haired woman...

"You betrayed dad!" Mai screamed.

She was crying again from all this that had happened; Sakura comforted the crying child as she soothed her with words and a loving embrace.

"You almost kissed that murderer..." Mai whispered.

It sounded somehow bad the way that Mai was putting it; was she really that much of a betrayer that she would just easily forget about how Itachi had been the cause of Sai's death and that she promised herself that she would kill him?

"No..." Sakura whispered.

Mai gave her mother a skeptical look as she narrowed her eyes and furrowed her brows.

"You don't understand..."

Mai's eyes flashed a deadly crimson colour as Sakura looked on in complete shock; Mai totally oblivious as to what Sakura had just seen, but now all of a sudden her eyes were beginning to burn uncontrollably.

Little did they know but someone was watching them from afar a frown on his face as his eyes narrowed on Itachi, the man who was supposed to never fall in love, especially with some pink haired kunoichi!

Stepping out of the shadows, Sasori made himself known as Itachi merely glared at him. Sakura looked at him in surprise, she hadn't even sensed his chakra until he finally came out of hiding...

"Go back to Konoha." Itachi ordered him.

Sasori glared at him, he wasn't going to be pushed around by Itachi any more; he was even the leader of Akatsuki!

"No." It was a simple answer.

Itachi glared harder, almost as if that would make Sasori go away which he didn't he merely crossed his arms over his chest as he leaned against a tree.

"I knew that you slept with that whore..." Sasori mused as his looked over at Sakura who was now listening to everything.

Mai furrowed her brows as she spoke up.

"What are you talking about; Sai is my father." She said matter-of-factly.

"That's what you think." Sasori went on as Itachi gave him a warning glare.

No! Everything was slowly but surely falling all apart! Exactly how much did Sasori know?

"Uchiha Itachi is your father." Sasori finally said as he pointed to the said man.

Mai let out a gasp as she looked between her mother and Itachi; Sakura was looking downcast as her eyes were filled with tears some already falling even though the rain continued to pour down on the land below...

"You possess the sharingan, just like Itachi..."

Mai touched the corner of her eye as she blinked a few times, registering what she was currently being told by someone she didn't even know!

"That's not true..." Mai whispered.

Sakura looked at her daughter as she wet her lips with her tongue before parting them and finally speaking...

"Yes... its all true, Mai..."

Said girl quickly turned around to look at her mother, eyes wide as she let her mouth fall open.

This had to be some sort of mistake! How could she be the daughter of a murderer and how could her mother lie to her for all those years about Sai being her true father!?!

"You lied to me?"

"Sai agreed to treat you as a child of his own..." Sakura put in quickly.

"That's not the point!" Mai screamed.

"You lied to me for 12 years!"

Sakura went to touch her daughter, but Mai slapped her hand away; now she truly was unloved, Itachi sure as hell wasn't just going to welcome her with arms wide open, plus it was his idea to send her back to Konohagakure; but the question was, would he have sent her back to Konohagakure if he had known a head of time that she was pregnant with his child?

"You and Sai lied to me!" Mai said, forgetting all about calling Sai her father, which she now knew that he was not...

-

Naruto was getting pretty exhausted from the fight and leader still hadn't received a single scratch from the spiky haired male; even with Kakashi fighting along side him, they were both losing miserably...

"It would be a lot easier if you just gave up and handed over the nine tailed demon..."

Naruto threw a kunai but leader was too quick and dodged the attack carelessly; throwing one of his own at the kyubi holder as Naruto knocked it out of the way using another kunai...

Naruto, hang in there

-

"We protected you!" Sakura countered, her voice rising.

"From what?" Mai screamed.

"The truth; I didn't want you to know that you father was an S-class criminal!"

She felt like she was slowly dying inside, each and every second that ticked by; maybe her mother should have kept it a secret, at least it would have saved her all of this heartache that she was currently feeling...

Forgetting about her mother for the moment; Mai turned to Sasori.

"What are you guys doing in Konohagakure?"

He smirked at the curious girl.

"Why, we're here for the kyubi of course..."

Sakura growled; they hadn't given up on capturing the fox demon within Naruto yet have they? She dug her nails into the dirt of the ground as she glared at nothing in particular...

"Naruto..." Mai said low enough that only she was able to her.

Yes, a few years ago Sakura and Sai had told Mai of the demon living within Naruto and she had said that it was cool; every time she saw him she would call him fox-boy or some other cute name that her imagination had thought up of...

And unlike all the other kids, Mai had accepted Naruto for who he was; a human being, not like some kind of freak of nature or monster for that matter! She had even told a few kids off for calling Naruto a monster behind his back one day, which ended up with her getting scolded by Iruka-sensei for beating the crap out of the kids.

An explosion could be heard from behind the cabin as all heads turned in that direction; so Konohagakure must be that way...

"Leader..." Sasori said.

This caught Itachi's attention as he glared at Sasori with pure hate in his eyes as he stepped closer to him.

"What do you know?"

Sasori chuckled before spilling about everything.

"What? Leader didn't say anything to you; he came her personally to capture kyubi since you were having such a difficult time doing it..."

Wait!?! Leader was in Konohagakure? He never left Akatsuki base or even really fought for that matter, actually none of the members have never actually scene the man in person, though they listened to his every word.

"Naruto!" Sakura almost screamed in shock as she straightened up and began to head in the direction of Konohagakure.

I guess she wasn't alone because everyone began to follow her, Deidara summoning up one of his clay birds and taking hold of Sakura as he pulled her onto the flying beast and soared over the forest and towards the now destroyed Konohagakure...

-

In a few minutes there were rows of enemy shinobi, Akatsuki to be more exact... All Akatsuki members were against whatever was left of Konohagakure; including Naruto who was at his last amount of energy...

Akita Masato, Tazu Asami, Takahashi Kenji, Setsuna Kamuri, Hoshigaki Kisame, Hidan and Kakuzu were all standing beside each other as they looked at the remaining shinobi from Konohagakure; even Tsunade was prepared to fight with her life; it was all very necessary and if she died, Naruto would take her place as 6th hokage of Konohagakure...

-

So this was it huh? The final battle for the existence of Konohagakure... To save Konoha, it would take every last person in order for them to accomplish this; even if some weren't very strong they were all willing to try!

Iruka had taken the women and children down beneath Konohagakure; threw a secret cellar that led to an underground tunnel used in emergency situations and this was by far an emergency situation!

Konohagakure had already lost nearly 60 percent of their population and the other half was fighting for the village hidden in the leaves; it happened too quickly for anyone to really know what was happening, even the hokage herself didn't know that they were being invaded until it was too late...

-

Landing the bird, Deidara and Sakura hopped off it and now stood a few meters away from what seemed to be a large battlefield... Heads were turned in their direction as the Akatsuki members looked on at the people.

Kamuri looked at Sakura as she gave the girl a wave while calling out her name; Sakura waved in return at the little girl as she smiled for the first time, though she went completely stiff when a tall Akatsuki member came running towards her.

It was too late, Sakura had screamed for Kamuri to get out of the way but leader was far too fast and before they knew it Kenji had blocked the attack and instead it was inflicted upon himself as he glared at leader who resumed his original position.

Kamuri fell to her knees as she looked at Kenji though Sakura rushed right over to the two as she placed her hands over Kenji wound and began to push chakra into him, ultimately closing up the wound until he was as good as new!

"Sakura..." Naruto whispered as he watched everything.

Why was she helping the enemy out, she should be helping Konohagakure out, they were gonna need all the medic ninja they could possibly find; the only ones with a lot of experience was Tsunade and Sakura and that wouldn't be enough...

So, I guess this is what it really cam down to now huh? Akatsuki against Akatsuki; leader was completely crazy if he thought that Deidara was going to fight with him, he hated leader; he hated Akatsuki and what he had become; all it took for him to realize it was a special pink haired girl...

Arigatou, Sakura-chan

Out of nowhere, Sasori snatched Sakura as once again he held a kunai to her throat. Everyone stared in shock at the two as Sakura tried to pry his fingers from the kunai that was oh so close to her neck...

Leader smirked at Sasori; at least he still had a few smart members on his side, now if only all of them were like that...

Sadly for Sasori a few shuriken were embedded into his back as his kunai missed its spot and instead cut Sakura's upper-arm, making her cry out in pain from the sudden attack inflicted to her; Naruto shifted a little as he tried getting to Sakura but Kakashi stopped him.

"Don't let your guard down..." Kakashi ordered.

Leader growled in fury at Itachi who was standing languidly with a kunai in hand and ready for anything that would come his way...

The wind picked up as all the Akatsuki cloaks began to dance with the cool wind simultaneously...

This is it

The final battle

"Itachi..." Leader warned the Uchiha.

"Do not disobey me."

Itachi smirked at that;

"I follow no one's orders." He stated.

And just like that, everyone began to fight, Akatsuki against Akatsuki as well as the leaf village against Akatsuki, even Mai was fighting but she didn't know who to fight against; the enemy had just saved her mother and that Deidara fellow didn't seemed to want to harm them, for he was fighting against any and all Akatsuki members...

Though, leader stared at Itachi; for some reason he had a feeling that Itachi would betray him some day and it just so happens that he wants to kill the Uchiha just as much as he wants to kill him...

She watched as the two ran at each other, weapons raised and lips set in a grim line...

"Dad..." She whispered not noticing what she just said.

It just felt somehow, natural...
