"Come on let's go!" The people began to shout as we were invading there place, our target? Oruchimaru himself.
"Ok we are going to need to spread out and infiltrate through different sides, remember our main target is Oruchimaru but if anyone else gets in your way eliminate them." Itachi said as he began to separate our enforcements. We all nodded; while hell was breaking lose around us.
"Sakura, Sasuke, Kakashi, and myself would go with about 30 more men from the back. Tenten and Neji you guys will go East with 50 men, Ino and Sai, you guys will go in through the top and you will take 35men, Shikamaru and Temari you guys will have to go through the West with 45 men. And lastly Naruto and Hinata you guys will enter full force in the front with 80 men. Good luck to everyone, now go!" And everyone began to scatter everywhere.
I felt someone hold my hand and I looked up to see Sasuke's face, torn. "Sasuke….?" I asked concern and gave his hand a little squeeze.
"Don't leave my sight…ok?" fear written all over his face, and I didn't blame him I felt the same. I nodded and he let out a heavy sigh.
"Let's go." He said to Kakashi and Itachi, who were trying not to overhear, but still heard. They nodded and we began to run to the back. As we were run I saw All my friends fighting, I even saw some of our allies getting hurt and some even died in this rebellion.
I thought about how this would turn out, would I lose my friends? Or would they lose me? I didn't want to think about it, I just had to try and focus on this; we just need to take down our Lord.
"Sakura…. " I heard Sasuke say my name.
"Yes?" I said, all the while I knew people where trying to give us our privacy and where pretending they could not hear us.
"About last night," And for some reason my heart began to beat fast, would he say that he hated it? "It was-"
We was cut off by a grenade flying towards us
"Grenade!" People began to scream others where finding cover while Sasuke grabbed me and hid behind a tree holding me tight.
"Are you ok?"
I nodded, his eyes showed the reflection of my face and I didn't like it. I was scared, how could I not have seen that! Was I really that distracted by what happened yesterday.
Images and flashbacks of last night kept crossing my mind and I began to blush, but at the same time I began to get irritated!
He saw my troubling face and kissed my forehead, "It will be ok." He whispered and lead me outside holding my hand the whole time.
"Let's keep moving! Anyone who got injured just stay here and go help the rest, make sure to get treated before going out to fight again." Sasuke sounded like his brother, like a leader. From the corner of my eye I saw Itachi smiling at his little brother.
By the time we began to move again we only had about 26 people left, meaning nine of our men just got injured or died.
This was becoming more difficult than we had thought.
Once we finally made it to the back we had to split up.
"Ok me and Kakashi will go this way you and Sakura go through the other way, Be careful. Everyone else just infiltrate and kill anyone who stand in your way."
Everyone was running different directions and I began to panic. I wonder how the girls are doing, I mean this is their first time being in a war, I've trained them all I could and all but maybe it wasn't enough for this.
No, I told myself, I have to have faith in them. They are my pupil and my pupil don't die on me in a war.
Talking to myself made me feel a little better.
"There they are!" I heard our enemy's shout as the spotted us.
"Get ready Sakura." Sasuke warned me.
"I bet I can kill more than you."
He smiled by my sudden change of mood, he was glad I wasn't sad anymore.
"You're on!"
Then they began to attack us, it turned out it was a lot more fun than I thought it would be.
Then a knife went lying to my left arm, and I hit me. "Ah!" I screamed, shit.
Sasuke turned to look at me and because of that someone got him, crap! This is all my fault.
I ran to him and punched the man that was holding him, I send him flying and broke his nose.
"You ok?" Sasuke asked, shouldn't it be the other way around, I thought.
I nodded and we began to fight again. I made sure to take this seriously, I can't cause Sasuke to die, What if I become dead weight to him? I'm obviously not as strong as him, no matter how much I make myself look like I am. I'm weak! Thoughts began to run through my mind and I couldn't understand these feeling.
Once all the opponents were dead Sasuke came over to me.
"What's wrong?" He asked, I was obviously not myself today.
"Nothing," I said not convincing him. "Let's go." And I began to run in front of him, I didn't want to give him a chance to make me tell him what was really bothering me, because then I would really become dead weight.
I kept hearing bombs, swords clashing, and screams but I didn't know who's they were, what if they were from my friends?
My mind began to wonder again, from the corner of my eye I saw a knife flying to my face, I quickly dodged it and returned the favor.
He dodged it, "My my my…. You certainly have become quite different Sakura." That voice.
I began to look around and found we were completely alone, there was nothing but white walls, was this a trap?
Sasuke was by my side then, "Oruchimaru! "
"My precious little puppets, how dare you betray me!" he shouted as he began to attack, I froze. Sasuke noticed this and blocked his attack for me.
"Sakura," he said in a pained voice.
I looked up to him, my eyes wide with terror, what am I doing?
I got up and kicked him straight in his gut, "Ugh!" he said as he rolled away form us.
"Suck it, my Lord." I said as I went by Sasuke's hand to see if any injuries had been caused. To my relief there were none.
"So the rumors about you are true, I always wanted to test you out." I looked at him and didn't say a thing.
"You do have the strength of a hundred men," He said as he was coughing out blood, "I'm pretty sure you can break someone's rips with your strength."
"What's wrong Sakura?" Sasuke whispered.
"Nothing," I whispered back, I didn't want to bother him with my stupid problems that I didn't even have answer to.
He gave me an 'I don't buy it' look, but dropped it.
"You two were my best puppets too," Oruchimaru continued to talk, "I knew you would surpass your brother eventually, and I knew you would surpass your mother too. She was the greatest assassin of her time, even greater than your father."
My heart stopped for a while and then went into overdrive, my body went cold and I couldn't move. My eyes felt like they were about to cry, and I couldn't' even wipe away the trader tears that began to reveal themselves.
Sasuke got in front of my in a protective stance, he obviously knew I wouldn't be able to fight, or do anything. I really was dead weight.
"So you never knew did you? Is that what they were trying to do? They were trying to hide what you were always meant to be? Ha! What a joke, I mean look at you! You are one of the best murders there have ever been."
My family never wanted me to be like this? They wanted me to be normal? They didn't want this life for me?
I began to lose my cool and the tears that were rolling down my face were uncontrollable.
"What is this?" Oruchimaru said in a smirk voice. "Miss. No-Emotion is actually crying? Did I hit a nerve?"
This surprised Sasuke and turned around to look at me with pained eyes as he saw my face. I wish it was just me and him right now.
"Don't turn your attention away from me!" Oruchimaru said as he came at us with a sword.
Sasuke pushed me away and he took a direct hit to his arm.
That's when I came back to my senses. "Sasuke!" I cried as I saw him in physical pain. This was all my fault! I knew I would be dead weight to him!
"I have to admit thought," Oruchimaru continued to talk, "I expected more from you Sakura, you are nothing but dead weight. And now because of you Sasuke will die. How pathetic."
He threw Sasuke to the wall. "Ugh!" I heard him cry in pain,
"Sasuke!" I cried
Then he threw his sword to Sasuke's leg, and hit his target.
He can't walk anymore, crap!
"Now it's just you and me." Oruchimaru said with a wicked smile on his face.
"Sa….kura…." Sasuke said as he tried to get up. I knew it I knew this would happen.
"You just don't get it do you?" Oruchimaru sais while turning his attention back to him.
He hurled his feet to Sasuke's gut. Sasuke threw up blood and lost his breath.
"Sasuke!" I cried, I knew I would be dead weight.
No! i…. I am Sakura Haruno!
I cam one of the greatest assassins here, I …. I have to save him.
I grabbed my two swords and began to attack silently.
"Why are you risking your life for this pathetic dead weight of yours?" Orochimaru said mockingly.
"Did you two fall in love? Is that it? Well that explains why you two became so weak.."
"Why don't you put your money where your mouth is!" I said as I came from above my feet directed to his face.
"wha-" I cut him off with my feet on his face.
He rolled to the other side of the room.
"Sasuke, Sasuke… Are you ok?"
"Sakura…. Get out of here, he is too … strong."
"No Sasuke I won't leave you!"
We were pretty much breaking every rule we can think of …but we didn't care.
"You aren't going anywhere," We heard Orochimaru's voice come from behind. "You are both going to die here."
Before I could do anything his fist came flying to my face, I managed to block it but it still send me flying away from Sasuke.
I regained my balanced and began to attack Orochimaru once again.
I won't let you die here Sasuke….even if I have to sacrifice my life, one way or another I will save you.
