Thanks! I really appreciated the reviews. Sakura/Sasuke forever! Also thanks for answering my previous questions! Okay warning: this chapter is short but well , here's Chapter 2!

Chapter 2

A fight rose in the middle of the forest breaking the peacefulness of the early morning. It was a gang of three punks (I know small number) vs. Sakura.

"Come on pretty one, why don't you say we make out right now?" the ugliest one said disgustingly while walking towards Sakura who was standing very still, arms crossed and eyes as cold as ever.

"One step closer and you'll ask for it." warned Sakura getting ready in fighting stance.

"Do you really think you could actually beat the three of us! HA! That is the most pathetic thing I had ever heard! You're just nothing but a cute little girl." The ugly guy said signaling the other two to close in on her.

"Fine, if this is the way you want it then I have no choice. I warned you and now this is your fault." Then Sakura focused Chakra on her feet and made a great jump just as the thugs lunged at her having to only crash at each other, because their victim got away.

Nearby Sasuke was perched on a tree watching the fight. He had just finished his morning training when he heard the commotion. He didn't really have anything to do so he watched. He was still surprised at how strong Sakura had grown. Not that she was any stronger than him since he would never allow such things to happen. But she was pretty strong, for a girl. The type that use to worry about her face and boys. Sasuke is still having trouble adjusting to the change in Sakura. He watched the fight in silence. And as far as he could tell she was winning. He is pretty sure that Sakura sensed him nearby.

What is he doing here! Oh well at least he know that I'm strong enough to fend for myself. Sure enough Sakura had indeed sensed him.

sigh She had grown so pretty after these pass years. She still has a big forehead-wait! I can't be thinking about this! It would make me weaker having her around. She is still just one of those annoying girls.

Sasuke kept denying his feelings and kept telling himself she is a weak useless girl that would get in the way. Still over the night till now his mind was always thinking about her.

Sakura didn't forget about Sasuke after last night either. Her childhood feelings kept on starting to come back. Each time she succeeded in pushing them away they still came back, and it became harder and harder for her to push it back again. She's not sure if she could do it next time when or if she sees him again.

I don't want to love him again. I don't want him to break my heard again. Not again. Why can't I be more like Ino? Why can't I move on? Being with him just made me weak. All my weak feelings will come back. Then in the end I'll end up risking my life for him again. I will not allow that to happen again or any of this! He is still the same. Cold, emotionless ugly? I couldn't see his face last night. Aarrgh! Why do I care? I shouldn't even be thinking about this. As soon as I'm done with these creeps I'll just quickly walk away.

Then Sakura gathered chakra around her right fist and punched the ground hard.( If this attack has a name please tell me!) Soon there was a tremendous earthquake and a long crack formed in the earth bringing down the enemy.

Impressive, thought Sasuke. Just then a mew came out of nowhere. It was Nikki.

"Huh, you Sakura's little pet. Nikki is you name." Sasuke said as he picked her up.

She must've wandered over here when Sakura was fighting. How did you get up on this tree? You just a tiny helpless kitten.

Sasuke let go of the kitten and she landed on a branch below.

"That showed you! Don't mess people around especially me or else. You're lucky that I spared your life." Turning away Sakura went to the place where she dropped Nikki.

Nikki! Hey that's odd? I remembered I left her here. That kitten! Where could she be? Sakura cursed herself. Oh great, Sasuke is still somewhere around here and now I lost my kitten again!

"Go to your master, your starting to get annoying." Sasuke said to the cat after seeing Sakura searching for her.

Nikki of course ignored him and stayed where she was.

"You're stubborn aren't you? Sigh, I guess I'll just have to bring you to her then." He scooped up the kitten and jumped from branch to branch to Sakura.

Sakura heard shuffling in the trees and looked up. There stood Sasuke smirking, leaning on a tree acting as cool as ever holding Nikki. Sasuke continued to smirk and dropped Nikki from the high tree.

"HEY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING!" Sakura ran at top speed to catch the poor kitten. She was getting angrier and angrier by the minute at Sasuke. So, she jumped up and landed on the branch that Sasuke was on.

"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING? YOU ALMOST KILLED-" Just then she realized how close her face was to his. Now she could clearly see every detail on his face.

He had become more handsome than ever. Clothes were still gloomy and he kept his hair trimmed.

Sasuke, "What's the matter Sakura? Cat got your tongue?"

"Why you...Bastard!" Sakura said forgetting how handsome he looked.

Sasuke looked amused at hearing Sakura swear at him. But still he continued smirking.

"STOP SMIRKING! It's getting annoying!" blurted Sakura. She was glaring at Sasuke.

"Why should I?" Sasuke said in an annoying tone.

"Bastard" She said again.

"Heh, now you have the guts to swear but your still as annoying as ever."

"Aargh! I'm going. I see that there is no point in talking to you anymore. You are still as arrogant as ever." Turning to jump down from the tree.

Sasuke ignored the comment and beat her to it. Then he started walking on the path suspecting Sakura to walk another way. But she didn't instead she was too walking along the path clutching Nikki.

"Where are you going?" her anger died down and now seeing Sasuke walking on the same path as her she became curious.

"None of you business!" he said not an angry way.

Silence came. Sasuke was looking ahead and Sakura was watching him.

Suddenly Sasuke broke the silence and asked Sakura a question.

"Who was your teacher Sakura?"

"Tsunade-sama" Came the reply. This told Sasuke all he needed to know. How she became strong.

"Sasuke, why did you leave Orichimaru?" asked Sakura daringly.

"I left because I had already learned everything from him. The people there are all weak and so there was no more challenges left for me there." said Sasuke.

They kept walking until it was dark. It had been awkward between them. But then out of nowhere a shadow went in front of them. Then the figure snickered a sinister one and punched Sakura in the abdomen causing her to faint then picked her up and disappeared. Sasuke tried tracking down the figure but he was nowhere to be found.

"Argh! How could I let him just take Sakura away like that! He'll pay." Then he switched to Sharingan angrily and went to search for Sakura.

Well that's it. I'm really bad at the san, sama, kun thing. So don't be too mad.
