The soothing sound of the rushing river filling her ears, wind dashing through her pretty face and blowing her faint pink hair gently. She looked up in the sky, deep emerald orbs narrowing. The sun was shining brightly, hitting her eyes which made them water a bit. She brought back her gaze to the flowing water in front of her. She sat gently in the green ground.

"I wish they would come back… I miss them…" she sighed quietly and shook her head, "Sure is a nice day."

A harsh wind blew in, making fall into her back. She closed her eyes, her mind wandering off in her "library of flashbacks" for a moment. Faces flipped through her consciousness and echoes filled it for a moment. Suddenly, it all stopped. Seeing now were gloomy onyx orbs and an intimidating smirk.

'I wish you're here right now' she thought glumly, 'I miss you so much…'

Harsh wind arrived and blew the surroundings, then again. She heard a rustle in the bushes behind, but completely ignored it. The bright shadow in her closed eyes darkened. She curiously opened her eyes and regretted in doing so.

"Oi, forehead-girl!" a blonde girl greeted loudly while waving a hand in front of sakura's face. "Mind-wandering again, aren't we?"

"Yes…" she whispered, but enough to be heard by ino, "I just…"

"Stop moping around, forehead-girl!" she said as she forced sakura to stand up, "You need to get your big butt into the Hokage's office. Godaime-sama needs to talk to you."

"Really?" she now stood up quickly, making ino lose balance but regained her poise immediately. "Why?"

Ino shrugged, face scrunched up in a confused expression. Sakura smiled energetically and dashed out of the clearing. She walked happily in the busy streets of konoha. The smile in her face, there was still a trace of sadness. Vendors, teachers, children, friends, had greeted her along the way, as usual, she greeted them back with the forced smile on her face, but still ravishing. After hearing the "how are you's" and "Are you okay's" of the sympathizing people, she felt like she was draining out. The only words that came out of her mouth upon hearing those words were, "I'm okay…"

With the sound of the door opening, she looked from the scary, large pile of paperwork, up to the curious looking female standing in between the doorframes. The blonde hokage sighed heavily and stood up. She walked up to the nearest window beside her, blonde hair fluttering quite gently. She rubbed her temples slowly; the dash of wind through her face was enough to refreshen her stressed self. She turned around at the close of the door and ordered her student to sit down. After all these years, Tsunade had grown closer to this stunning female in front of her. She smiled sadly at her, saying nothing. Sakura's face was still full of confusion but she still managed to grin at the Hokage's smile.

"Can we stop smiling at each other? My cheeks are hurting…" sakura said quite silently, Tsunade giggled at this.

"Sakura-chan, I have some important thing to tell you…" Tsunade said recovering from the giggle, turning serious, "…I ask you to listen carefully."

Sakura replied with an affirmative nod and shifted from her seat a little.

"You're parents are away right now, on a business trip, I guess…" Tsunade sat down behind her desk.

"I'm quite aware of that, Tsunade-sama." Sakura said quite jokingly.

"Yes I know. Well, they asked me to tell this to you right before they left." The Godaime closed her eyes, concentrating inside, "It seems that you're not the only child and ninja in your family…"

"What?" one eyebrow raised high, sakura asked. "Excuse me, Tsunade-sama?"

"Sakura-chan, you're not deaf. And besides, she's a really powerful kunoichi if you asked me…" Tsunade said, deep in thought. "And she's beautiful too."

"I have a… sister?" sakura asked, more to herself.

"More like, a big sister." Tsunade corrected, "You want to know her name?"

Sakura thought for a moment, "what the fuck? Oneesan? I have a oneesan? Kami-sama…"

"Well, duh! That's what the hokage said didn't she? Are you stupid?" the inner-sakura entered.

"But… it… what?" sakura shook her head mentally, "I am most certainly NOT stupid!"

"Sakura-chan? Still there?" Tsunade asked, making sakura get back to reality.

"What's her na—"

The door swished open forcefully, sending a gust of wind to dash through the room. An Anbu stood behind the open door, panting heavily. He walked clumsily in, not shivering in the godaime's fierce glare. He glanced at sakura and bowed his head a little. Sakura noticed the Anbu's appearance, it was dirty, it was full of fresh blood, His mask had a crack, and a kunai pierced in the side of his neck. The Anbu gave the hokage a message scroll before fainting. Sakura rushed beside the lifeless body of the Anbu and tried to heal him. Tsunade opened the scroll immediately and read it fast. Her light brown eyes moved swiftly from left to right, narrowing at each sentence. The hokage stood up, closing the scroll slightly. Sakura stopped healing the Anbu, knowing it was useless.

"Stay here." She ordered. She then handed the scroll to sakura, "Sakura-chan…"

Sakura nodded and took the scroll. The Godaime looked at sakura with mixed sadness and worrying, then walked out of the office. She looked at the slightly closed scroll, face plastered with a puzzled expression. She opened the scroll fully and began reading it. Her eyes widened in shock.

"No…" she whispered in an anxious tone.

The door opened again, revealing a worried Shizune. She rushed beside sakura and hugged her gently. Tears flowed down sakura's eyes as Shizune patted her back gently.

"Tsunade-sama told me… sakura-chan…" Shizune said sadly.

Sakura cried silently in the Hokage's office, in shizune's shoulder, beside the lifeless Anbu… Shizune glanced at the opened scroll beside the dead Anbu…

"Sound-nins attacked with a konoha missing-nin. Haruno ganza and Haruno tsubaki died. Our mission failed. The sound-nins arevery powerful, along with… Uchiha sasuke."

Shizune closed her eyes forlornly and sighed. She shivered at the sight of the scroll. It was full of blood… Blood of sakura's parents…
