The Lipthorian Princess
I Don't Own Naruto
Hope You Enjoy
The morning was off to a good start. The sun was shining while the wind cooled the air. To say the morning was peaceful would be an understatement. It was about 70 degrees outside and the birds were chirping in their nests awaiting their mothers for food.
However, there was one part about this morning a certain someone hated. What is that you ask? Well, a young girl at the age of 5 years is having a certain dilemma.
"Ah man, the one time my Auntie is nice an gives me an incenitive or was it inpentive? Oh, who cares, I still have no idea of what I should do!" A young girl screamed while pouting and crossing her arms. She was pretty angry that she didn't have anything she really wanted to do.
The woman walking next to her sighed in irritation.
"Kaley are you telling me that you have no idea of what you want to do today?"
Kaley huffed in anger while a small blush formed on her checks.
"Man, give me a break Auntie, it's not like I get out a lot. I mean come on; the only form of entertainment around here was annoying the men who were to watch me or running off. Come to think of it, that's how I met you." She said in thought.
Sakura sighed once again.
"Well, there has to be something you wanted to do when you ran away. Exactly what were you thinking when you finally did ditch one of the poor men?"
Kaley put her finger to her chin in thought. Then a couple of seconds later she remembered.
"Oh, that's right I ditched all those stupid men because I wanted to see outside of the village. That's what I want to do Auntie!" She screamed while jumping up and down in glee.
Sakura looked at her as if she grew two heads.
"You want to look at all the villages? I'm afraid that would be a little hard seeing as it takes almost a full day to travel to my own. It'd take about half a year to look and travel to all of them."
Kaley laughed while looking back at her Auntie.
"Well then how about that one?" She said.
The woman looked down in confusion.
"Huh, which one Kaley?" Sakura asked curiously.
Kaley smiled widely while holding her hands behind her back.
"Your village Auntie! Ah, the Leaf village, right?" She said skeptically.
Sakura's eyes widened at this information. What was her niece thinking? She couldn't take her there. She could only shudder at her friends' reactions.
Sakura walked through the gates of Konoha with her niece right next to her smiling happily. When she looked up she saw her best friend Naruto Uzumaki running straight for her.
"SAKURA-CHAN! YOUR BACK! YOUR FINALLY BACK I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!" Yelled the loud blonde while successfully crushing her.
Not much later the blonde looked down to see her niece. That was when his eyes widened.
"SAKURA-CHAN! Since when did you have a daughter and whose the father? Oh, no that means you did the naughty with a man and oh no what age were you? Sakura-chan what were you thinking?"
Sakura shuddered at the thought. It was then she thought of her other best friend's reaction.
Down at the flower shop of Konoha a young woman with bleach blond hair in a high ponytail was looking at the streets of Konoha. However, when her ice blue eyes caught sight of a pink haired woman walking, she literally ran out the door squealing.
"FOREHEAD! HEY FOREHEAD OVER HERE!" She screamed while running full speed. When she finally caught up to her friend she saw something that wasn't suppose to be there.
"Ah forehead, since when did you have a daughter? WAIT A SECOND, YOU DID THE NAUGHTY AND DIDN'T TELL ME? IF ANYTHING I SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE FIRST! WHAT KIND OF FRIEND LEAVES THAT JUICEY KIND OF INFORMATION A SECRET? YOU'D BETTER START TALKING NOW, AND I WANT ALL THE DETAILS! FIRST OFF WHOSE THE GUY YOU GOT DOWN AND DIRTY WITH AND…."
At this thought Sakura stared wide-eyed in horror.
Kaley looked up in curiosity at her Auntie.
"Um are you ok Auntie? You look like you've seen a ghost."
Sakura looked down at her niece with fear in her eyes.
"It's worse than a ghost Kaley, I just thought of two loud blue-eyed blondes." She said while shaking.
Kaley raised an eyebrow not getting what her Auntie was so scared about. Deciding to drop the subject she looked at her Auntie with her best puppy eyes.
"Please Auntie! I really want to go!" She said while quivering her lip for added effect.
Sakura finally regained her composure while looking at her seriously.
"That look doesn't work with me." She said simply.
Kaley faltered at this.
Sakura sighed for the third time.
"Listen let me talk to your father about this first, alright?"
Kaley smiled while grabbing her Aunties hand.
"Then let's go and tell him already!" She said as she dragged her Auntie behind her.
Sakura started to walk in sink with the girl while rubbing her temples. This was going to be a long day.
Meanwhile somewhere not too far away trudged a group of four, and when I say trudged I mean it. Sugietsu, Jugo and Karin were all tired.
Why might you ask? Well, that would be because they worked up all their anxiety on something so stupid and degrading. Do I need to remind you of the scene that happened at the ledge?
However, one of the team was walking ahead. He didn't seem to be too tired seeing as he was way too determined to stop now.
"Sugietsu is there anyway of knowing how close we are to our destination?" Sasuke questioned as he turned to face the water user.
Sugietsu looked at the Uchiha in annoyance.
"Listen Uchiha, you may be able to keep going quickly but try to keep in mind that I am using up a lot of chakra for this jutsu."
Sasuke looked at him emotionless.
"I'm not asking for myself Sugietsu." He said while eyeing the man.
To say he looked tired was an understatement. The man's eyes were drooping and his knees were shaking. It seemed he was at his limit.
Sasuke was about to tell them to take a rest but was interrupted by his teammate Jugo.
"Sasuke-sama take a look over there." He said while pointing ahead.
When Sasuke looked he saw a bunch of trees with cabins lying in their branches. It looked like a small village made by man.
"Wow, I never knew there was another village here?" Sugietsu said forgetting his tired state.
Karin merely scoffed while walking closer to Sasuke.
All three waited for the Uchiha's decision.
Sasuke just gives a small smirk.
"Well, it seems we were going the right way after all."
Sugietsu looked at the Uchiha in confusion.
"What are you talking about Uchiha?"
The raven-haired man looked at him seriously.
"Ten to one this village is where Sakura's niece resides." He said while looking around the area. It was when he spotted a small figure his smirk resurfaced.
"I'm going to head to the trees so stay here. Don't attack anyone and try to keep yourselves hidden. I'm going to go and talk to the little girl." He said while jumping onto a tree branch. When he reached a tree close to the little girl he purposely sparked his chakra.
"What's he doing? There's no way a little girl would sense him. Is he trying to get caught?" Sugietsu said in irritation.
"Quite." His teammates whispered.
However, the little girls figure stiffened visibly.
"Duck Butt?" She whispered quietly.
Sasuke said nothing, instead he grabbed a leaf from the branch he was on, and rolled it into a little ball.
Meanwhile, Kaley was looking around in search for the spiked hair she'd seen not too long ago. It was when a small leaf ball dropped she had caught on. Slowly looking up she saw the man she was looking for. She was about to speak but was silenced by Sasuke putting a finger to his mouth while shushing her. The girl remained quiet awaiting his next move.
When he pointed his finger at her while bending it slowly she understood he wanted her to follow.
When she saw him stop on a tree branch a little ways from the village she spoke.
"Duck Butt what are you doing here? If my Daddy finds you it won't be pretty." She said honestly.
Sasuke landed in front of her ignoring her comment.
"Hn, Kaley right?" He said unsure.
She nodded.
"I need you to do me a little favor." He said while bending to her level.
Kaley tilted her head to the side.
"What is it Duck Butt?"
Sasuke sighed upon hearing his nickname.
"I need you to bring Sakura I mean, your Auntie here." He said while looking at little emerald green eyes.
Kaley looked at him unsurely.
"No offense Duck Butt, but I think my Auntie would sense you. Well, maybe not you, but she'd definitely sense you three teammates over there." She said while pointing to the tree Sugietsu, Karin and Juugo where hiding behind.
At this Sugietsu groaned.
Sasuke paid them no mind though.
"Listen I'll take care of that, but you need to bring her here, alright. I promise I won't hurt her." He said seriously.
The young girl thought about it for a while.
"Fine." She said in defeat, and with that she was gone.
Walking back to the tree his teammates were, Sasuke took out some chakra rope and told his team to hold on to it. This made them a little weak but undetectable.
Back in the village Sakura was looking for her niece. One minute she was there and the next she's gone. She was about to walk back to the village until Kaley came running out of a path to her left.
"Auntie come here I want to show you something." Kaley screamed feigning excitement.
Sakura looked at her skeptically.
"What are you up to Kaley?"
Kaley said nothing, deciding that pulling her was better.
"Come on Auntie quite being such a slow poke." She said while tugging hard on the woman's arm.
Sakura sighed once again while following behind her.
Once they reached a clearing of trees a little ways from the village, they stopped.
Sakura looked around for the amazing source that caught the little girls attention. After finding nothing she looked at the little girl.
"Kaley want to tell me why you brought me to a clearing of trees." She said while giving Kaley a knowing look.
Kaley began to panic. Man, why did her Auntie have to be so smart?
"Um, …I …thought it would be a…good place to ah…TRAIN! Yeah train, you know with aiming kunai an all." Kaley said while laughing nervously. Anytime Duck Butt! She thought.
As if on cue Sasuke came out of hiding while walking over to them.
Let me just say Sakura did NOT look amused.
"What's he doing here?" She said angrily.
It was at this exact moment Kaley ran behind the man in fear.
"Sakura we need to talk." He said while giving her a small glare.
Sakura just rolled her eyes and scoffed while turning around and walking away.
Sasuke's eye twitched in annoyance. Without another second to spare he took out chakra rope and wire tied together. Without Sakura's knowledge he whipped the rope around, fastening both of her arms and legs while clenching the rope in his fingers.
Sakura started feeling numb and in a blink of an eye she found herself tied to a tree. She looked up to see Sasuke pulling a rope in his hand determining how tight the rope was around her.
"Let's try this again. Why don't we start with the explanation of this?" He said as he threw a sword in front of her.
At this point Sasuke's team and Kaley were gone leaving the two alone. Ok, so they weren't really gone. More like they hid while spying on the interaction.
Sakura's eyes widened slightly, but then went back to normal.
She then turned her head to the side away from his vision stubbornly.
"I don't know what you're talking about Uchiha. I've never seen that thing before in my life." She lied while closing her eyes.
The man's eye twitch once again as his grip on the rope tightened.
"Really, then I guess you've never seen this either." He growled as he lifted up her Konoha headband.
Sakura looked over to see the headband dangling from his fingers while mumbling angrily.
At this Sasuke's glare intensified.
"Want to explain why the sword you've never seen before had your headband tied on the handle. No actually why don't you tell me why the sword you've never seen was in a rock in scripted by Cytose Lipthio's daughter who was pronounced dead about TWELVE YEARS AGO!" He said while letting his anger surface.
Sakura remained silent hoping the Uchiha's pride would resurface, but sadly it didn't.
"Tell me Sakura, when you said that your last name wasn't Haruno anymore were you implying it was Lipthio?" He interrogated angrily.
She still chose to remain silent while looking the other way.
Sasuke's patience was thinning as he walked closer, his face about an inch away from her. Then without warning he grabbed her chin forcing her to look at him directly.
"Stop ignoring me Sakura. Tell me are you a Lipthorian or not?" He said as he held her chin tighter.
Sakura still said nothing.
Patience long gone Sasuke focused his chakra into his hand while going near her chest, and as expected an emerald green pendant made itself known.
Upon seeing it he clenched it in his hand while his Sharingan activated from anger.
This made Sakura transfixed by his gaze as it help her captive.
"I want you to tell me everything you know. That's including about my brother, why you were in Konoha under the name Haruno and why you lied to me." He replied while making the tomoe in his eyes spin rapidly.
It was then Sakura was forced to tell him everything in detail. Starting from how they met on the swing and her fake parents beating her to Itachi's plans.
When all the information was given Sakura was taken out of her hypnosis leaving her limp against the ropes. She'd been explaining everything to him for almost two hours now and the rope around her was starting to drain her like a leech.
Seeing this Sasuke let go of the rope while catching the unconscious woman in his arms before she hit the ground.
After hearing everything he was told he found a whole new level of hate for his brother, but he also found a major disliking and guilt towards himself.
Without another thought he adjusted Sakura in his arms so she was being held bridal style as he made his cloak hide her from being seen. He then looked up in the trees and motioned all of them to follow including Kaley.
After hours of walking one out of the group finally built up the guts to ask him.
"Duck Butt where exactly are you taking my Auntie and I anyway?" She said while looking at his closed cloak knowing her Auntie was inside.
Sasuke looked at her and she could see some remorse in his onyx eyes.
"I'm taking you both to Konoha." He said while hearing his team gasp at the same time.
"There is no way Konoha is going to let up step foot into the village." Sugietsu said.
Sasuke ignored him while asking Kaley to get on his back.
She did as she was told while holding on tightly.
Then without another word he was off at top speed in the treetops with team Hebi not too far behind.
Well that's it for this chapter, sorry it took so long to update I was learning how to drive. I'll try to post earlier next time.
