[Inner Sakura]
Chapter 3: The Offer
It had already been two weeks, and Sakura was rapidly improving. Today, she wanted to improve on her cliff-climbing. She secured a rope, just in case she lost her footing. She concentrated the chakra to her feet, and began to run up the cliff! After about ten minutes she reached the top, she only stopped once. She smiled with pride with what she had done, then she almost fell off the cliff when she realized that someone was sitting there.
"Hello Haruno-san." The woman said.
" H-Hokage-sama??" Sakura stuttered. [ What the hell is she doing here? ]
"Hehe, yes. Would you like to take a walk Haruno-san?" She asked, standing up.
"Um... ok. You can call me Sakura." Sakura said nervously. [ What the hell is going on?? ]
"Ok then. Follow me." Sakura nodded and did as she was told, still wondering what was going on.
"It seems that your teammates have left you alone," Tsunade said. "Even your sensei is too busy to train you, huh?"
"Yes..."
"Well, it seems that you are keeping up with training, excellent job." Tsunade said as she approached a clearing. Sakura gasped and realized that it was her training spot. How did Tsunade know where it was?
"This is my training spot."
"I know. Did you know that I used to train here when I was young as well?
"Really?"
"Yes. Let's sit down and eat some lunch, here." Tsunade handed her rice ball.
"Thank you Hokage-sama." Sakura said, taking the rice ball.
"You should be proud Sakura, not many people can practice cliff climbing at your age by themselves."
"So you have been watching me train?"
"Yes. You see I like taking walks through the forest, so I've seen you a lot. Did you know that you almost pass your sensei in cliff-climbing? Your chakra control is quite complete."
"Really? Thank you Hokage-sama!" Sakura exclaimed, she still couldn't believe she was almost as good as Kakashi-sensei.
"You know Sakura, you remind me a lot of the young me."
"You think so?"
"Yes, we're very much alike, unlike all the other girls in this village. Which is why I have to talk to you about something."
"What?"
"I think you have untapped potential, Kakashi seems to be overlooking you. Since you have such unique teammates, he tends to pay more attention to them."
"Yeah..."
"This is why I want to make you my apprentice. I can be your sensei and teach you many techniques?" Sakura dropped her rice ball and turned to Tsunade.
"What?! Really?!" She asked excitingly.
"Of course."
"Thank you Hokage-sama!"
"You're welcome," Tsunade laughed and thought, 'She really does remind me of the me.'
"So when will we start?"
"Tomorrow, just come to this spot around seven in the morning." Sakura nodded and hugged Tsunade, who laughed.
"See you tomorrow!" Sakura waved. Tsunade waved back and thought, 'I see bright things ahead.'
***Meanwhile...***
"Sasuke-sama, we are in the Sound Country, we're almost at the village now." One of the sound nins said. Sasuke nodded in acknowledgment. They approached the village, which seemed to be in pretty bad shape. It obviously didn't have much of a population. The people around had eyes colder than his. The buildings were of poor structure, the people (there were hardly any) seemed to be in poverty, it was an overall cruddy place. Yet, there was an evil aura about the place. They approached a temple, which Sasuke figured Orochimaru lived in. As they walked up the steps, someone Sasuke knew was at the top. It was Kabuto.
"K-Kabuto??" Sasuke's eyes were wide. He was quite shocked, he didn't know Kabuto had been a spy for the Sound Village the whole time.
"Hey Sasuke-kun, it's been a while." Kabuto beamed, then pushed up his glasses. "Come inside, Orochimaru is waiting."

So what do you think? Short again? If so... then SORRY! Thanks for the reviews btw. I just wanted to let you know that eventually in a few chappies, I'm gonna skip to like 3 months Sasuke has been gone. This gives them time to have learned new techniques. Anyway...lalala I'm not spoiling anything! R & R!
Sakura: Hell Yeah! I'm gonna learn some new techniques
Sasuke: I better learn something, I have to defeat Itachi.
Chelsey: Yep, I've got some cool techniques for all of you. Lighten up Sasuke.
Naruto: HEY!! WHERE WAS I IN THIS CHAPTER?
Chelsey: Don't worry, you'll be in the next one
Naruto: *scary eyes*
Chelsey: Wah! Ok ok! Next chappie coming soon!
Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, and Chelsey: See you later! Please R & R!
*scary eyes, Sasuke starts the chidori and Naruto starts the Rasengan* You better review!
Sakura and Chelsey: JK, you don't have to if you don't want to. Bye!
