Chapter 2Crimson Red
- Shi no zenbu
Death of all
There was a girl standing beside the mirror, brushing her hair with the comb. Something was wrong, she could tell. The girl was looking at the mirror... A woman was growing near her. She faced the woman, the woman screamed, she was tortured in a mere second and the girls eyes turned into gold, the woman looked at her and then she stood up... like a puppet being controlled, the girl made her way towards the woman and took a kunai "don't do this... please" the woman said, pleasing for her life...the girl said emotionlessly "I don't need you, not any more" she stuck the kunai at her throat and slid it down her heart. The woman screamed and said "Sakura..." Blood was all over... -
"What was with that dream?" She panted seriously as she caught attention of the others. "SAKURA-CHAN!" a kitsune boy said... she remembered what happened. But she just smiled at him forcefully. "I... I... need to get a walk..."
She stood up and then reached for air. She stood for mere three seconds and then she fell. She was caught by Sasuke and then he said "what are you doing?" She looked at his worried expression and she noticed there was blood dripping from her arm. She touched it momentarily, the pain has scorched up, and it was painful... She stood up and dusted off; she looked at him and reassured him "I... I'm alright... I just have to... take a walk alright" She said it calmly but her eyes were lifeless and clod with fear. Kakashi's lazy eye turned to notice it, but he knew that he should not interfere; it was something that she just has to think about.
The kitsune followed her when she went outside, not thinking of the danger that might approach them... and Sasuke.... Well he decided to come after all, it was also his responsibilty to take care of his 'teamate' or so that was just what he thought. They were just interested and worried at the same time... and they don't want anything to happen so they just followed her.
She was heading towards the hill, it was noon and you can see the moon. 'Urgh! I can't seem to figure anything out. I really need to see that woman now, even so, she then must know me, but I don't know myself, is that possible? I don't seem to get anywhere!" She was really frustrated the way you look at it and it seems that Naruto was silently laughing when she bumped her head at the wall slightly.
'What's wrong with her?' Sasuke wasn't getting anything and he erased his thoughts by shaking his head, and decided to just follow and head to where she was going. She was nearby the hill and she settled at the cozy place of the shade of the tree. She rested her head at her knee caps and she hugged it tightly. The two boys just decided to stay on the nearby tree that they found and began to hide themselves there.
The gust of wind was blowing and it made the leaves of the trees fall. The sakura tree shed her petals and flew down at her. She held one of it and stood up, thus alerting the two. She concentrated her chakra around her to let it fasten the process of healing. At the moment, she was just dargged to her emotions as she absentmindedly took a kunai and slashed the top of her middle finger as it began to form droplets of crimson red blood in her hands. She tasted it and licked it in a dangerous manner, she had always liked red but in no reason why, she was afraid of cuts but she seemed to enjoy the puddle as she suddenly felt another surge of pain.
She found tears at her eyes but she began to restrain it. "OH! DAMN IT!" she yelled it hard enough for the others to hear. She punched the sakura tree and it began to have a mark of blood on it. She felt a familiar chakra near by... She prepared her kunai and then there was a shadow nearing her, momentarily freezing her to her fears, but she managed to jump a little more to the front hand as the others prepared for an attack...
It was still silent and there was no one there but a cool mist that engulfed her. The area was shallow and it became dark. When she suddenly remembered something... "Is this a... jutsu?" She stepped backwards and then...
It was the woman. "Why are you here?" She said hesitantly as her attacker showed from the darkness "I'm here to tell you... Sa-ku-ra-chan a little message that comes from me"
She chuckled slowly as she deflected the kunai that was headed to cut her throat... "Now... now... hush hush, I'm not going to hurt you again... I just wanted to tell you to come with me" The words repeated her mind saying "why would I?" and then she held her kunai down and then lowered her head. The woman stood near "because... it is your destiny" She laughed again as she held her hand and grabbed the kunai that was the one Sakura used earlier to a cut her middle finger. She played with it and licked it in a manner that any person would be afraid... The monetary silence broke as she told her this
"You... tell me... who the hell am I?" Naruto and Sasuke nodded and then they headed towards the direction of Sakura. The woman kept nearing and nearing at her and she kept stepping back. She was so close to the tree now, and then another chakra appeared.
The woman caught the eight kunais that were thrown at her only to send them back, together with other pairs of kunais that were exactly ten. It was all too fast as both Naruto and Sasuke were pinned into the same trees. Sakura meanwhile tried to do a kawarimi but her hand was held by the woman. "So it already took effect then" Sakura was just terrified that she might die here, she wasn't ready to die, but yet this feeling was so familiar...
"I... tell me... who am I... answer me!" she said as the woman looked at her through the holes of her mask, everything about her was black, she wore a ninja skirt that was black and wore a black sleeveless silk matted at both ends as their lines flew at every direction, but there was a cherry blossom petal that had embedded at her middle, with dark green thorns that surrounded them like walls. She was wearing a coat that was dark violet and she wore a mask that was black with red lining to indicate it was their eyes. The only thing that was not black was her skin, it was ghostly...
She liked black but it was no time to tell her that she wanted to know about it. To know about everything... "Answer me!" Sakura said again alerting the woman who was caressing her cheeks. She had observed some dark marks that ringed both of her hands. "My lady, you don't seem to understand it yet... I will have to wait some more, until it fully blossoms" She smiled and then she said again. "come back to us... and... lead them like you... used to do" She performed seals that cause her to freeze... she laughed a little and then she said to her
"my name is Mitsuki Hana and I am from a Megami bloodline... Sakura-chan... I hope you remember me" She revealed her face, she had dark hair and she had dark blue eyes, she held out her hand and then she said "I'll be waiting Sa-ku-ra chan..." She held out her hand to her forehead as she felt the coldness of hers, and her eyes were serious and at the same time lifeless and dangerous. She was forced to close her eyes as she touched it, but at the same time, her forehead was burning and she didn't know why. The same image of the same scene happened...
A small version of her appeared, there was this teenage girl that bid the same words and she didn't know what that meant, she just nodded and the teenage girl disappeared...
She was brought back to reality and she found herself unable to move. The woman disappeared leaving her alone. Now she was sobbing, because of helplessness and frustration, hate, and anger, mixed emotions. She could already be dead by now if she'd kill her. "I'm so useless... I... can't even protect myself... from now on..." she said as she forcibly used kai and it in turn led her to bleed much more. She made her way to the two boys and pulled of the kunais.
"SAKURA-CHAN! Are you alright! Ne?" He said as he made his way to hug Sakura but he was surprised at what he heard. "don't touch me... I'll kill you if you do" Naruto immediately pulled back his hands and then turned to look at Sakura again, she was now pulling off the kunais that were pinning her 'teammate' she was so depressed today that she didn't act normal.
Sasuke dusted of and then turned to look from Sakura to Naruto. "We should head back" both of them nodded. She was still bleeding but she was too stubborn to let them help her, she says she was just fine on your own. She just whispered to herself... "God damn it..." It was if lady luck wasn't on her side and she'd curse everyone that stood at her way. Frustrated was our Sakura today [a/n and she's KAWAI when she looks angry!]
They were back to the inn and Kakashi was still reading his perverted book. They knocked at the door and they came in. She coughed some blood out and she had a blood red dress that is for sure. Her arms were bleeding and it was already cut open and they had already seen it. "She showed up again... I suggest tomorrow we leave this place" Sakura said as she coughed some blood out. "I am... too dead right now" she mumbled but at the least no one heard her.
Kakashi narrowed an eye to look at his student. "Sakura-kun, you have an injury right now, we cannot risk your safety..." he said and then she noticed that Sakura was just staring at the floor and then she just said "lemme alone" and then she just sloppily made it to her room and collapsed at the bed just in time for her to be able to sleep, she haven't got the energy to take a bath nor take a walk, she was just too tired. She mumbled before passing and going black at the pain of her injuries. "Megami...huh..."
The white sheets of her bed were blood drenched right now with a full crimson red color.
She managed to make it up here without collapsing and she was happy for that sole reason. Her face was pale and angel like as she slept covered with blood, of her own.She had tried hard enough to hide some more of her injuries at the back and at her hands and legs by using a simple genjutsu skill. She revealed a wound near her heart that she has acquired from the past attack.
She was all out of chakra and she just needed some rest, she just needed some more exercise and training to be able to be well again. That was all in her mind and she was also thinking about what the recent incidents had to do with her.
She wanted to be strong and she wanted the power to be able to use in some fights, she always thought that she was the weakest and she is the weakest of them all. She wanted to prove to her rival that she can beat her, wanted to prove to Naruto that she can be as strong as him, wanted to prove to Sasuke that she was also useful and she wanted to be herself.
She was just longing for some appreciation and not always being the 'dead weight' she wanted to be a strong woman, and she would find out who she is.
She slept in the crimson red bed as she followed the tune of rhapsody. Everything was going on as planned... A smile was to be seen in the moonlight and the stars were no longer there blocked by the dark clouds. The aura of Gaia seemed to fade and the shadows take their charge. The old melody of the shingetsu has been played yet again; no one knows what will happen next...
A/n Okay, even though some things didn't go as planned, I hope you are really into this. Well, just say if I may be having some more improvements to be done lately... I still don't want to tell about the other techniques, coz you will find about it... soon enough. And as you can see, I'm very um like, all is expected... No one is supposed to be surprised at what I write; coz u can predict it, now you must have an image of what would be happening next. Hey, if somebody asks some questions, I'll always be here to answer em' and maybe I still can't make a long story as expected. sighs Well, Id be updating at the least 8 days, hey don't blame me. Connection problems... I would have wanted at least 10 reviews for each okay! Or more...
