DISCLAMER: I do not own Naruto, but if I would have the chance, MUCH BETTER! (Redundancy, hehe)
Sorry for the late update. I'm a graduating student that's why the schoolwork is on the rush. But anyway, I'll try to complete the 3rd chapter as soon as possible. Please keep on reading this, and keep reviewing! Hehe ;-)
Twist of Fate
Chapter 2
"Geez, it's so hot" Sakura thought as she wiped her perspiration with her slim hand.
It was an 'INNER CORE' type of surrounding that filled the training grounds because of the extreme heat given by the golden sun.
The vicinity was silent even though the group was having a hard time practicing. It was a deafening silence.
Sakura-san! I got it already! I got it! - A voice of a young lady broke the silence.
"I got it Sakura! I got it!" Hinata ran to Sakura.
"I really did it! Look! My arm a while ago has a cut, but now.., IT'S GONE!" Hinata pointed at a part of her arm. "That's very good, Hinata." Sakura smiled. "Gee thanks!" Hinata smiled back and hopped back to training.
"My lady," Sosori appeared in front of Sakura. "Nani?" Sakura asked. "My lady, Itachi-sama is calling for everybody." Sosori bowed. "Ok, just a minute." Sakura told Kisame. "Hai" Kisame nodded and vanished.
"That's enough for now! Itachi calls for us!" Sakura called.
Then, the group started to march forward and headed to Itachi's room.
Knock
"Itachi," Sakura called.
"Enter"
"You're calling for us, aren't you?" Sakura asked. "Yes I am calling for you" Itachi nodded.
"Nande?"
"You will have your first task tomorrow." Itachi said. "You will assassin Kakashi, Gai, and Asuma. I guess you know them very well." Itachi continued.
"Hai" the group nodded.
"Good. Hinata and Neji will assassin Gai, Naruto and Sasuke on Asuma and Sakura will kill Kakashi." Itachi Explained.
"Me only! It's unfair!" Sakura protested. "I know you could do it, couldn't you?" Itachi raised a brow. "Who said I can't!" Sakura placed her hands at her waist.
"So that's final. You may go now." Itachi ordered.
"But-"
"Go" Itachi said.
"Hai" Sakura bowed and followed the group.
Sakura's steps echoed at the hallway- STOMP, STOMP, STOMP,
She gave out a sigh as she recalls her former sensei.
Kakashi, I can't forgive you.
Sakura gave out a series of sighs.
Her memories, her past, it were all so terrible… so terrifying… SO HORRIBLE.
My sister, my parents.., HIM. It was your entire fault. I will never forgive you.
TEARS STARTED TO FALL FROM HER EYES
That terrible incident had caused her eyes to shed a flood of tears years ago.
My heart has turned to stone. It's because of you. The last time.., it will be the last time I will shed tears. I should do this for my family.., for my LOVED ones. You built this, Sarutobi built this, Itachi built this.., NEJI HAS BUILT THIS. You made my heart freeze. You ruined me. My past, my present, and my future.
With that, she excursed to her room.
At last, my first revenge.
Neji took a deep breath as he lain straight on his bed, his head rested on his hands.
That stupid sensei didn't help me at all. All his attention was on that dumb Rock Lee. But worse, he separated me from HER.
The window banged close when the wind blew hard.
"TELL HER. TELL HER"
"BUT I DON'T WANNA LEAVE HER"
"WHY THE HECK ARE YOU DISOBEYING ME!"
"I.., I CAN'T!"
Neji closed his eyes and tried to recall everything about HER. The eyes, the hair and the whole her.
Why for God's sake did he ask me to!
Neji untied his forehead protector and stared at the Konoha sign 'DESIGNED' with a slash.
This is the very perfect time for revenge
He threw his forehead protector on the mirror of the wooden cabinet.
Crack- the mirror was broken.
Stupid
REVENGE- Neji and Sakura's voice murmured in unison even they were hallways and rooms separated from each other.
Both were furious.
Their past… their senseis… THEIR LIVES…
"SAKURA"
What the-
"SAKURA, IT'S ME. CAN YOU HEAR ME?"
A.., ane!
"IMOOTO,"
Naze? Nan desu ka, ane
"IMOOTO, OKIKI NASAI"
Otoosan, okaasan, wa doko ni imasu ka
"WAKARU KUDASAI, SAKURA"
Dooshite kimasu ka
"…"
"...WATAKASHI NO MUSUME"
Okaasan!
"MOTSU ANATA NO TSUYOSA, MUSUME"
"Okaasan-"
"KUDASAI, MUSUME"
Otoosan!
"WAKARI OKAASAN. SAKURA"
Hai. Wakarimasu
"…"
OKAASAN, OTOOSAN, ANE.., NANDE? NANDE!
Knock
"What the-"
"Hyuuga-san, I brought your lunch." The maid said.
"Enter"
"Hyuuga-san, here's your lunch." the blonde lady placed the tray at the table.
"Okay. You may leave." Neji said.
"Hai"
Neji walked towards the table and grabbed a plate.
"Does she still remember me?" he thought as he ate his Tuna Misono.
"Neji, do you think you could still find her?" he asked himself.
"OF COURSE YOU WILL!"
"But how could I? Or, I mean, where could I find her? How?"
"SHE LIVES IN KONOHA RIGHT? MAYBE YOU COULD FIND HER THERE"
"I guess so"
"GOOD LUCK BRO"
"Thanks"
Sigh
"One month!"
"Yup." Sakura nodded sadly. "I will miss you, Ino" She sobbed.
"But why the stupid heck are you going?" Ino asked.
"It's our mission." Sakura said softly. "But, I can't, I mean, what's the stupid purpose of your mission?" Ino hugged Sakura. "It's the right time for my revenge, Ino" Sakura gave Ino a slight push. "Sakura, WHY!"
"Every misery I've gone through my life made me strong. It's nothing but everyone's fault. Everyone gave me the impression of being what I am now. I promised to myself that the LAST TIME would be the END of the OLD 'Sakura' that you knew. But Ino, you're the only one who gave me the reason to live. I'm not sure of the fact that we will be returning. But, I assure you, A HUNDRED MILLION PERCENT that you will be here in my heart. NO MATTER WHAT. Our friendship will remain here, (Sakura touches her heart) FOREVER. I promise" Sakura said.
Once more, a tear dropped from her emerald eyes.
"Sakura-"
"Ino," She hugged her and whispered in her ear; 'THANKS A LOT SIS. YOU'RE THE BEST'
""you're welcome"
