Memories Unleashed By: Maya Amano tired of putting ITS NOT MY NAME

Hey Chikako San! Thank you for your review, you're the first one to ever acknowledge my bewildered status, its fun for some guys, like you to ever appreciate my story like that, I'll try to update as far as I can finish this, it seems the plot is still in my head.

Chapter 3:

Submerged

It was morning again... Her mind was still playing with her, everything was back to normal. For the past few days, it seemed that the ones following her already disappeared. It was still a depressing day as she remembered what happened for the past day, but she said herself not to cry...

Flashback

It was early in the morning and they headed towards the mist. Suddenly they were surrounded by a bunch of ninjas. Since she was weak she couldn't do anything on it, she barely made it because she had an injury. "always being protected" she mumbled. There was a kunai heading straight for her heart then, Someone grabbed it for her and he said "Sakura, concentrate!" She stood there trying to regain her pose but she already failed, again... She held her kunai and then presented the kawarimi since the others are too busy fighting, she killed the ninja that was beside her, she didn't feel like it, but, it seems as if she just stopped at the sight of the blood splatting on her face. "I... just killed the man..." she went to look at it but she found she was just too late, the ninja slashed her from behind and before she knew it, it was already bleeding. "I've seen to much blood..." she went towards the back of the man and didn't notice her coming. She targeted for the very critical parts of her opponent and ended up killing another person. She shook her head and began applying some chakra to her injuries to heal... She was even stupid enough not to look at herself.

They finished up and they weren't that much exhausted, she said to her sensei stupidly without even thinking. "people just die so worthlessly" and then she had earned a glance at his sensei. They continued their journey until they had reached the mist. She managed to hide some more of her injuries, just in case she told herself.

End of flashback

Now they were in the mansion of the so called 'Mera Asanagi'

She was just there standing up the dark hallways of the second floor, something about the darkness attracted her, she didn't know why. They were welcomed last night with a warm greeting, it was exemplary a very good moment for her to rest, as she stared out the breathtaking view outside the window sill. She was into her thought for a while until she screamed at the sudden hand that touched her. "SAKURA-CHAN! GOMEN!" Naruto said as he ate sloppily his favorite Miso ramen and told her.

"Sakuma-cham, Kakai senei tomme nat we" He gulped the ramen and Sakura gave him a look that would make you freeze forever. He gulped again and said "Gomen, Sakura-chan, as I was saying, Kakashi sensei, told us to meet Asanagi-san at the living room" She passed through him and made through the corridor down to the stairs having an evil grin. She made sure that she had done everything right...

Back to Naruto

His head was aching, and he had a Miso ramen spilled on his blonde hair, he was silently in despair because his favorite ramen was wasted and he could not eat it.

"Kakashi-sensei, Naruto said that you wanted to tell us something..." She took a seat at the farther end of the couch. The living room was big, you could even compare the size of it at the ninja academy, this was definitely almost as big as it, but compared to the size of the whole mansion, no doubt that it was. Every floor has its theme, and it was like a five star hotel with ten bathrooms, twelve guestrooms, and twenty rooms for the family but only three are occupied, two dining rooms that were incredibly big and a spare room, were guests and visitors crowd when there were occasions. There were also five kitchens, and there were a separate house for each of the men to stay. There was a tower beside the mansion and there were was a big garden behind a frontal lawn could be seen at the façade. They were likely lost when they wondered at their rooms but after two days of stay, they finally got it, of course with a map. It was a three floored mansion...

Kakashi has introduced Mera Asanagi to others when all of them have assembled

"Mera Asanagi is a retired assassin ninja and she also has the capability to understand ancient scriptures, both of her works were having a supply of 'high' luxury, but, she was really rich, simply to put it, when she was little she was the heir of the Asanagi, who earned many lands and everything a normal person can desire, she could not stand to be served always so she decided to run away, as she said before...

And she happened to be stranded in a hidden village, luckily she made it there safe and not dead. She was fascinated and eager to learn ninja techniques and to form the 'jutsus' that the ninjas or shinobis would do. She was seven when she ran away, and she has been missing since then. She worked hard to achieve her goals and never gave up, she became a genin at the age of eleven, a chuunin at the age of thirteen and she had been a jounin at the age of fifteen and became one of the ANBU when she was seventeen, she retired at the age of twenty and decided to show up to her family, after all she was the heir. Her family fled to other continents for business. She had learned the expertise of reading scrolls and was an expert long after at the age of twenty four..."

"But, sensei... what has this has to do with our mission" Sakura said worriedly. "Sakura-kun, listen here...

before long, there were thousands of offers that came fleeing to her offering her money to uncover the secret of the scrolls but she had put all of them down. Until one day, Hokage sama made his way to her to read the special scripture, and re-write it in a manner to be understood...

It was a special scripture of forbidden jutsus, and that is why there are many ninjas that are guarding this place. She had successfully re-written it in five years..." Their jaws dropped... "What is it that was so special about it...? I mean, ancient scriptures are easily understood, and, I myself have been reading some of it before."

The eyes of Mera opened and she took a look at Sakura. She had a questioning look. "How come you can read ancient scriptures, I do not wish to offend you but, ancient texts take time to find about, what kind of ancient texts do you read" She was tensed and she said inwardly 'I should not have said that... now I'm going to search for what kind of ancient text STUPID!' and after a minute or so she said

"I... It was supposed to be a secret..." She earned a glance from both Kakashi and Mera and suspiciously Mera said. "Did you happen to encounter, in you learning I presume, that ancient scriptures are done with a special reason, and that reason is very particular my lady" She smiled at Sakura and then she said "do you know the reason my lady?" She unconsciously said it, because she does not feel like herself.

"I know madam, I know everything very well" She closed her eyes and at the corner of her words she said "ancient scriptures... choose their readers and it is because chakra is applied to them that makes only the blood related person read it or if the reader has special capabilites of such" And then when she said that, Mera looked terrified...

"I... when did you acquire such an information" She had began with a cold voice her voice. "Only the experienced knows that" She clasped her hands to her mouth and she hesitantly said...

"I, just happen to said that... I... I... I have no idea that all I said was... simply right" She looked suspired and she was a little scared, she was scolding herself inside like she always did before. And then Mera said. "Maybe it's just a lucky guess, Kakashi-sensei, I will have the honor of telling you what had happened"

She held her voice low and then the butcher went towards her with two scrolls; the only thing that was different about the two was their writings. She felt a sudden pain at her head and reached for it with her hand, while the two boys were heading towards her high pace, almost bumping at each other. Naruto was blabbering for a second while Sasuke was just looking at him at the corner of his eye while looking at Sakura.

"No... don't worry about me, I'm just a having a headache" and she just made them worry more, she continued to gulp and then she made the words com out of her mouth. "Don't worry about this... this is very... normal, for me, once in a while." She said as she took a deep breath and her headache was gone, Mera said to her. "If you are having headaches you should have a check for that to the medic nins...

We never know... as I was saying, these scriptures are important, while studying it, I found out that this contained jutsus long invented by a clan, but they did not keep record of themselves. There were... some other disturbing seals there, something about shadows and light... somewhat like that, most of the techniques are used for killing, healing and there was one peculiar for resurrecting, the most difficult part was how to stop the chakra from blocking it... do you want to see?"

She held out the ancient scroll since there was no one in the room who could have guessed what was inside, he gave the other scroll to Kakashi. 'unknown clan, killing, healing and resurrecting... cool, but its forbidden jutsus, I can't read it so there's no problem' Sakura said in her mind and went a closer look at it. She felt a feeling of foreboding when she touched it.

It was a Gaia type Mera had discussed it, means it was for heaven and not for earth. She hastily looked at it, and so did her teammates. There were hundred's of ancient texts, she touched it with her hands and held it closer to her, it opened and began to roll down, she noticed a cherry blossom at the middle part and then she was surprised that she could really read it. Mera suddenly looked at Sakura; she was beginning to understand it. She mumbled a little "must be my imagination..." only for her to hear it.

She was delighted at the sight, because it was her dream before. But she just remembered a jutsu before there were faint words back then, but she could now remember hastily, she didn't care, at least she had the memory of it.

Flashback

She was sitting at the nearby pond, and she was being thought by a person she didn't know, as if it was so close but they were just so distant. She began copying the skills as if she didn't know... why? "Ne, ne, when do I use this?"

End of Flashback

She still didn't know the reason of those visions that has started appearing at her mind. She was already reading all of the texts aloud when she noticed what she was doing, she was getting carried away. Her mouth was shut before she even knew it, apparently Kakashi sensei shut her mouth and then Mera told her. "How could you do that?" She said as her mind started to blur, she was getting dizzy and she bit the hand of Kakashi-sensei. "I don't... know..." and she fell down...

"So did she already figured IT out?" a feminine voice said. One started to reply, "Kawai ne, before long, but let's play with her... the same way before" The woman laughed and smirked. "Let's see what happens next, happy birthday. Sakurachan" She said and laughed again, echoing the whole area they were in. "Megami" She began to say as the lights started to blur. She performed a jutsu and there was nothing more.

- When she was sleeping -

She couldn't feel anything. Only pain, her head aches and she was crying at her sleep. Crying in the verge of tears until a woman held her face, she was back before. She was having a nightmare, all pitch black. There was no one for her, no one. The voice started its echo. She just wept because of it and she suddenly said "why... why am I so STUPID!" She said visibly displaying fury and a voice said. "No you are not... you just make yourself believe that you are weak, come with me..." it said in a mist voice.

"I won't come... not yet" and then the woman appeared but she could not make out the face, she was wearing a half There was half evil and half good at her, and her face was with a mask of darkness and light. The woman said to her. "Sakura my dear" The voice started to say and she replied sobbing with "nani" She didn't notice that she was still in a child form and she was wearing a white robe, and her hair braided [it was long... very very long] and she was carrying her teddy bear, but she was lonely right now, whatever that was, she didn't seem to bother. "what do you want to tell me, speak up!" the woman paused and then she said "my dear, you want to be strong right... then come with me... I AM, the only one to give YOU what you want" emphasizing the words clearly, she looked at her in tears and said "really? I don't trust you, get out of here, it's my solitude, my only place where everything's quiet" The woman smirked and said to her... "do you really want to be in this dark place, then I'll be leaving for now, bye Sakura chan, and may you consider this as a gift from me..." She left her there and then held out her hand and gave her a...

- the end -

A/n I wanted to tell you that I really liked playing with the characters, this is the best part of the story, yet it still would be very long. From now, it would be smooth sailing but hey, there would be darker parts up next. Next time!

I'll tell to you what the meaning of Megami, it's tense... For the sake of those there, if you promise to review ne? it means 'goddess' you may have the idea of what this fic is about but that doesn't get you to anywhere, this would be very fun indeed. Playing starts now! But I really appreciate chikako-san for reviewing it; your review is so Kawai! I'll try and update this tomorrow. Please read and review, bye!
