Okay, this one goes not to credit only me, but my friend, David, as well.

It was a MUCH shorter RP that we did when we were bored, and I extended it into a much longer RP... Well... Story...

I have to admit, it's actually kinda creepy...

Enjoy!

(BTW, the star things don't work… Sorry…)

Haruno, Sakura walked down the "Cherry tree lane." It was named so because of the cherry trees lining both sides of the road for as far as the eye could see.

It was right around the time when the trees cried their petals over the lane, making it look like the rain had turned pink.

It was a sunny, warm day. The birds were singing, the lane smelled of blossoms and flowers. Sakura smiled as she remembered this from her childhood. This was where her father would bring her. She had moved out, and it had been several years since Uchiha, Sasuke had gone away by himself.

Of course there was still lookouts for him, but not as much as there was. Sakura still got angry and sad when she thought about him.

She stretched and breathed in the heavenly scent.

"Mmm, I've missed this place so much!" Sakura sighed. She stopped and looked around. Something wasn't right. She felt like she was being watched.

"H-hello?" Sakura called out, thinking it might have been Naruto or someone like that, just following her to scare her, as usual.

The feeling went away, and Sakura shrugged, continuing walking down memory lane. The wind picked up and blew her short pink hair around her face. She leaned back into the wind and tied her hair back with her hitai-ate, like she used to.

Sakura...

A voice ran through the wind.

Sakura... Come...

Sakura gasped. She recognized that voice. Could it be...?

"But... But you were gone for so long..." She answered the voice, sounding scared. "You've come back?"

Sakura...

Sakura turned and ran. This reminded her of a horror movie she went and saw with Naruto. She didn't like what happened to the girl in the end...

Tears fell freely from her eyes, although she had no clue why.

Sakura...

The voice grew faint as she ran.

She arrived back at the busier section of the village, finally feeling the sense of uneasiness leave her as she saw the crowds and familiar faces.

She walked back to her apartment, checking over her shoulder every now and then.

It was just your imagination, Sakura scolded herself. Forget about it. Forget about the voice. Forget about him.

Sakura went about her business for the next couple of days. She even hung out with Naruto more than once (Which was a change, even Naruto noticed it)

"Sakura," Naruto asked her over a lunch in the local ramen shop. "Why are you hanging out with me so much?"

"Is that a crime now? Just to hang out with my best friend?" Sakura asked, sarcastic.

"Well, no, I was just asking... You look tired, are you okay?" Naruto blurted out. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean you look tired as in you look bad, I'm just asking..."

"No, you have every right to ask," She sighed. "No, I'm fine. Really, I am!" She said, looking into her friends disbelieving face.

"Okay, then," Naruto said quickly and sarcastically. "Try and get more sleep Sakura. And whatever your mind is stuck on, I'd advise to forget about it."

Sakura gasped quietly, disguising it quickly with a small cough.

"Sorry. I'll keep that in mind," She said as Naruto paid the check. "Oh, and Naruto?" She quickly grabbed him by the shoulder as he was about to walk off in the opposite direction.

"Hmm?"

"Arigato," She started off towards her house, leaving a bewildered Naruto standing in the doorway of the ramen shop, wondering why she had said it.

Sakura couldn't sleep well that night... Not well at all...

She tossed and turned, fluffed her pillow, looked at the alarm clock only to realize it had only been two minutes, and then repeated it all over again.

She decided a walk would do her some good. Somehow she found her feet leading her to that spot again...

No voice greeted her, only an uneasy feeling in the air.

"Sa... Sa... Sasuke-kun, w-where are you? Onegai... Sasuke-kun... I need to know... Sasuke-kun, onegai, answer!" Sakura desperately cried his name as she fell slowly to the ground on her knees. She held her hands to her face, trying to hide her teary face.

Sakura... Don't cry... Just come... Come... Follow my voice... Come to me... I'll take your pain away...

Sakura stood up, scared, her knees trembling. She followed the voice aimlessly and walked as if she had no emotion, no soul, no nothing... Just the voice leading her on...

Yes... Follow me... Come to me and be here with me as you've always wanted... Tell me you want me...

Sakura didn't answer... She couldn't...

She walked up the hill to a house she had never noticed before. It was big, but it was dark and evil looking. The house reeked of pain and death... Why was she walking towards it?

Someone touched Sakura's hand, and she span 'round, coming out of her transfixture.

She screamed as she saw the face that haunted her dreams, instantly turning them to nightmares, clouded with red eyes and things indescribable...

"Sa... su... ke... kun..." Sakura squeaked out. Her knees gave way and she fell to the ground. Sasuke knelt beside her, his face very much the same as it was, but more mature, more wise...

"Sakura," His voice came, deep and intimidating. Her name rolled off his tongue, just as he remembered it did.

"Sasuke... kun... I thought... We all... Thought you were... Thought you were... You were..." Sakura stuttered, looking into the cold, Sharingan eyes. "Dead..." She whispered.

"I was never dead Sakura... Never..." Sasuke said, hugging her deeply.

"Yes you were!" Sakura said firmly, getting braver. She pushed the much stronger Sasuke away from her. "You were dead to all of us... Especially me... Why did you leave? Why?"

"I can't tell you that... Sakura..." His voice lost it's intimidating tone, and took on a soft, dreamy tone... The one that brought her here in the first place... "Follow me..."

Sasuke wasn't using a Genjutsu, so Sakura couldn't dispell it... She could only follow him...

They walked into the entrance hall of the large house, and Sakura breathed in the piney, musky smell of the house.

Sasuke turned back towards her, his Sharingan gone, his eyes back to clod-hearted black.

As soon as the door was closed, a loud bang echoed across the whole hall as the door locked itself.

Sasuke ran at Sakura, making her scream, and he pushed her against the wall, holding her wrists above her head. He pushed his body against hers, holding her in place. He just needed to breath in her scent... Just once more...

"Sasuke, yameta!" Sakura shrieked. "Let me go, onegai, Sasuke-kun..." Sakura tried fighting back but it was useless. He held her firmly against the wall.

Well, a very familiar voice came from the back of Sakura's head. At least he's not trying anything...

He might! Sakura snapped back.

Well, then, at least it's not Ino... It whined.

True... Sakura said back.

See? I knew it! You still want him! It laughed.

Sakura drowned it out by concentrating on the situation.

"Yameta, Sasuke-kun, yameta, onegai! Yameta!" Sakura tried saying firmly. The little shake in her voice made Sasuke chuckle.

"Scared?" Sasuke asked darkly.

Sakura's only answered was her body shaking beneath his. She managed to get her knee up, and she kicked him in the groin.

He fell against the wall. He wasn't in alot of pain, but enough that he couldn't run after her as she ran into the dining room. She couldn't kick him that hard, after all...

Sasuke stood up straight. "Ha, I guess I should have seen that one coming," He walked slowly after her, calling out eerily "Oh Sakura, where did you get to?"

He walked slowly into the dining room, knowing she couldn't have gotten any further than this.

He noticed the pantry door open, and he played with her as though he were a father playing hide and seek with his 3 year old daughter.

"Now, where could she be? Where could Sakura've gotten to? Maybe under the table?"

He checked under the table.

"Nope not there... Maybe... In here?" He swung the pantry door open, and in return got a loud shriek as Sakura tried to hide herself more thoroughly amongst the containers and shelves.

"Don't hurt me onegai... Onegai, don't do anything bad to me," Sakura cried.

"I never planned on it Sakura-chan," Sasuke said, advancing on her. His shadow cast over her made her quake with fear.

When Sakura looked up at the name, Sasuke's Sharingan was back in place.

"No more games, Sakura," He said, reaching a hand down to help her up.

"Your eyes... Onegai, yameta!" Sakura was filled with absolute fear, with such power of which she had never felt before.

Sasuke's eyes remained with the Sharingan, and stared at Sakura. He grabbed her arms, lifting her up and pushing her against the wall, glaring coldly into her eyes. "Don't touch me unless I order you to."

Sakura yelped a little and said, "Sasuke what are you trying to do? One...gai... Let me... Go..." Sakura cried even more only by the thoughts she had in her head of all the things he would and could do to her.

"Don't cry Sakura," Oh how he missed saying the name. "Sakura."

He kissed her face where the tears fell.

Sakura was taken aback. He was scaring her, but at the same time, was he a little... Romantic? Was he the villain and the hero, so to speak?

"Sasuke-kun, I... I... I HATE YOU!" Sakura pushed Sasuke away and ran to the front door. When she got there she tried everything in her power to open it, but it wouldn't budge. "Damn it! Open!"

"It's no use," Sasuke's voice said to her... Right behind her. She whipped around, only to see him standing a mere inch from her. "You can't get out. And, might I remind you, you actually do not hate me... By the way you're acting... I can just tell..."

Sakura gulped "You think so?" Sakura said. "I'll... I'll fight you then," Sakura drew a kunai and waited for Sasuke's attack.

Sasuke just stood and looked at her. He blinked slowly. "You're going to fight me? And why would that be?"

"You want to kill me, don't you?" Sakura said trying to be brave and fearless. "Don't tell me your afraid of me?"

Sasuke laughed. It wasn't a good laugh... On the contrary, it sent chills up and down Sakura's spine. "Afraid of you?" He chuckled darkly, approaching Sakura, and grabbing the arm holding the kunai. He squeezed her wrist painfully and she dropped the kunai. "Thaaaat's right, now I don't want to kill you, of course I don't," He leaned into her ear and whispered darkly, "I just want you."

He pushed her painfully against the wall, connecting his lips with hers. His tongue pushed its way in, and forced hers to dance. He withdrew, biting her lip as he did, drawing a little blood. She tasted sweet... Pure... Untouched...

Good.

Just the way he left her.
