Sakura opened her dazed emerald eyes to find herself in an unfamiliar room, the room was very strange and had an ancient or rather historical touch to it. As she got up and noticed there was a bandage wrapped around her forehead, her attire was also different as it looked like a dress from a historical movie, she took it off and it had blood on it indicating she got a wound on her forehead. As she tried to recall what happened, her memory hitted her full force.

Flashback

"Sakura, please let me explain," her boyfriend begged her. Sakura wretched herself out of his hold and exited the cafe, the jerk trailing behind her in an attempt to prove himself innocent.

"There is nothing to explain, you're clearly cheating on me, now move out of my way." she spat at him as she began to cross the road.

"She was the one who kissed me, it's not my fault" her boyfriend yelled at her from the side. She turned around and was about to say something when…

CRASH!

A car bumped into her as her world started to fade. She couldn't hear the startled yell of her boyfriend or other people, but she could faintly see the driver get out of his car and kneel beside her, she saw his face just as the darkness evaded all her senses.

Flashback end

Sakura groaned if she had gotten into an accident then this place would most likely be the hospital but it sure didn't seem like one, having been a doctor Sakura knew the hospitals like the back of her hand and she knew this too that the beds there aren't so comfy.

The door opened and in entered…

"Ino?" Sakura questioned as she glanced at her, if her best friend was here there was nothing to worry about but the way Ino was dressed was really queer.

"Oh thank god forehead, you're alright, I almost thought you might have some memory loss or something cause really that injury looked sooo bad" Yep that was her best friend and not a girl who looked exactly like her.

Before Sakura had the chance to react the door opened again and in entered a brunette woman with emerald eyes like hers, she too was dressed queer and Sakura had to think that maybe today was some sort of dressing strange day or something.

"Sakura, Are you alright?" the woman asked as Sakura thought how she knew her name but shrugged it off thinking Ino might have told her.

"I'm alright thank you for asking... Well if you don't mind umm who are you and where are we" Sakura asked the woman turning to Ino at the end.

As soon as she said those words both Ino and the woman looked shocked as Ino said

"How can you forget your own sister, forehead, wait can it be that you actually lost your memories but you remembered me just fine" thoughtfully.

Sakura gaped at them, this was really strange, how could she have a sister, she was an only child and Ino knew that, this better not be one of her pranks.

The woman looked at her with worried eyes "Sakura, do you really not remember me? I'm your older sister, Haruno Rin.

"Haruno? My name's Senju Sakura though" asked Sakura, shocked even more really what this place is, even if Ino, her childhood best friend was here this place didn't look like somewhere she knew.

Both Ino and the woman now named Rin looked at each other confused before Ino once again began.

"Maybe she actually has lost her memories but you know how we heard a few weeks ago that sometimes you lose a portion of your memories, that can be what happened with her since she remembered me just fine."

Sakura was about to say that she hasn't lost her memories and was completely fine but instead decided to ask "What happened to me? How did I got this wound"

"You don't remember that either? Well you told me you were going outside to practice your archery and when Ino checked on you after some time, you were laying on the ground with a wound on your forehead"

Rin explained to her, she had a look of sisterly love in her eyes that made Sakura feel something that she never had in years, love of a family, since she was the only child, and her parents died when she was just a kid, Sakura had grew up alone, even though she had friends to back her up every step of the way in life, she never experienced the love of a family member.

And in that moment, her next words shocked even herself.

"Maybe Ino is right, I may have lost my memories and it's not only of you since I can't remember any other person besides her, I'm sorry onee-chan that I don't remember you but it won't be a problem would it"

Rin sighed before looking at Sakura and giving her a reassuring smile "I think so, the weddings in a week, I just hope you remember by then if not, I'll have to explain to the royal members about your condition"

"Wait, whose wedding?" Sakura asked, startled it can't be hers can it.

Rin smiled and chuckled "It's not gonna be yours baka so don't you worry, it's my wedding to Uchiha Obito, one of the princes of this nation, speaking of them Ino you should tell Sakura about every royal member if she doesn't remember or else it might pose as a problem later"

"If it's your wedding then why should I know of them, I'm probably only gonna encounter them when visiting you and Ino can help me then" Sakura asked puzzled.

"Oh about that since after Rin-nee-chan's wedding, we will be homeless so she decided that she's going to take us with her, the royal family didn't mind saying that she needs someone she knows to be there." Ino explained to her in one go.

"I get it but why do you too…" she trailed off.

"Geez so you only remember my name and nothing about me" Ino muttered

"Sakura, you and Ino have always been best friends from childhood, so when her parents were killed our parents took her in until they also died so Ino is also like a imouto to me just as you are" Rin explained to them as she got up

"Ino, you can tell Sakura about the royal household and other things she needs to know, now if you excuse me." saying that Rin left the room and Sakura marveled at how full of grace her steps were.

"Come on forehead, you need to have your lessons" Ino joked before dragging Sakura off out of the room.

After a few hours with Ino, Sakura had gathered a lot of information such as how this place was Konohagakure which she concluded was the modern day Tokyo if her history knowledge was right. The emperor right now was Uchiha Madara who had no offspring of his own and thus there was no legitimate heir to the throne. Ino had continued and told how all the princes of this nation were his nephews whose parents were dead. The 2nd prince Uchiha Obito who was Rin's fiancé, Ino also exclaimed that the two had been in love almost since childhood since whenever their father went to the Palace, he took Rin with him, that's how they had met and fell in love. The next prince was the 3rd prince Uchiha Shisui who was the younger brother of Obito. Then came the 4th prince Uchiha Itachi and the 8th prince Uchiha Sasuke who were the children of Madara's younger brother Fugaku. Ino had said that even though these were the only princes having the Uchiha blood, there were two others as well, the 13th prince Uzumaki Deidara and the 14th prince Uzumaki Naruto who were the nephews of Empress Mito, wife of Madara, she had taken them in as well as karin-hime, who was also her distant niece, after the death of her cousin.

After she had got all that knowledge, her head had already begun to spin, to think there were so many princes. Sighing Sakura looked at herself in the mirror, she still looked the same, the same pink hair, same emerald eyes and same petite figure, the only difference was that her attire was that of the female characters in some of the historical dramas she had seen. She had a pale pink kimono with a pale green obi that had flower embroidery on it, she also wore a dark pink hakama(skirt) with the traditional zori(scandals). Her hair was open but a few strands were tucked behind in a bun, it was decorated with a lily kanzashi(hairpin). Overall she had to say that she hadn't looked that good in a while.

Contemplating with herself she decided to explore this place, she had read in history about Konoha's beauty and trade so she thought to go out and explore. As she wandered around the market looking at the items and awing at their beauty a man caught her eye, he had silver hair and had a mask on his face and oddly he seemed very familiar until she realized it was the same driver who crashed his car into her, Sakura thought that maybe he might have answers to how she got here since he was the last person she saw after all. She began to follow him until a ruckus startled her.

"Everyone move out of the way, the 4th prince is here!"

As Sakura turned to look back, some villager or passerby accidentally pushed her causing her to almost fall in a ditch when…

Someone wrapped their arms around her waist and pulled her as she looked up, onyx and emerald clashed as their gazes met with each other until the guy pulled her up fully so she was sitting on the horse, the guy rode the horse so fast causing Sakura to grab onto his shoulder as he slowly slowed down. When they finally came to a halt the guy looked at her as their eyes met once again and then...

He pushed her off the horse!

"Ow" Sakura muttered under her breath before quickly getting up ready to give that jerk a piece of her mind, seriously if he was gonna push her off, he should have let her fall.

"Wait!" Sakura started as she pointed an accusing finger at him "How can you throw someone around as if they're a bag or something"

The guy regarded her for a moment, a hint of amusement in his eyes as he simply ignored her and started to rode off until

"Hey, I told you to wait"

Sakura came and grabbed the check-rein of the horse, he looked at her bewildered by her actions as she continued "How can you go so fast on such a narrow road, look, look over there, everyone had to move to the sides" she said pointing her finger towards the people.

"People come before car-I mean horses, People come before horses, Is your horse more important?" As she continued to give him an earful, the guy only looked amused, he jerked the horse towards her direction causing her to fall back before speeding off again.

"UGHH,THAT GUY, SERIOUSLY", she shouted, her temper kicking in full force.

A woman from the crowd which had gathered around her, helped her up "Oh lady, it's a relief for you just to be alive"

"huh, what do you mean but really they should arrest these types of people who don't follow rules"

"Do you really not know who he is, he is the 4th prince Uchiha Itachi, you may as well forget this encounter" with a pat on her back the woman left.

'4th prince Uchiha Itachi' at the mention of his name, she thought back to Ino's words about him

"I think he is someone you should never approach unless it's really really necessary, well how do I say he isn't the nicest of the people and he doesn't really get along with anyone except 3rd prince Uchiha Shisui, also rumor has it that if you get on his bad side or piss him off, he will kill you without a thought."

Sakura internally shuddered at the thought,' way to go' she mentally thought before the realization hitted her.

She had lost that silver haired masked man because of that prince. Before she had the chance to continue her search, a voice startled her.

"Lady Haruno Sakura!"

She looked back to see Ino coming or rather running her way.

"Lady...eh?" Sakura asked as Ino finally reached her.

"Well people were watching and I don't want to be called disrespectful in any way" Ino replied but before she could continue on Sakura suddenly asked her " Do you by chance know anyone with silver hair and a mask?"

"There's no time to look for some shady looking guy, we have to go back" and without another word the blonde started dragging the pinkette back home.
