Here is the next chapter. Thanks for the reviews. I also wanted to say that I did start the sequel to Today is the Day. I put it on but deleted it in two days. Why? Well in two days one review shows that it wasn't good enough. I might restart it after this story. Please review. As usual now I need ten or more reviews. ThatI don't need to say because I can get them without asking. Here is chapter three. Enjoy!
Sakura woke up in her usual time. This time though, she woke up differently. She heard a small crash sound. Sakura was a very light sleeper. The smallest breath could have woken her up. She jumped up. Her kunai was already in her hand. She walked towards the sound. Her full body was alarmed. She heard another crash. Sakura threw a kunai towards the sound. She heard a small yell.
"Sorry to attack you Shizune," Sakura said. "At these moments I prefer to attack first and then ask questions." Shizune sighed. This girl had a lot of senses. She also just spoke a twelve word sentence.
"It's alright Sakura," she said. "Just don't attack again next time." Sakura gave another nod. Her eyes were still dull and sharp. She still had the kunai in her hand. "You can put that away now." Sakura put the kunai away and stared at Shizune.
"Why are you here?" Sakura asked. Her eyes grew sharper. She knew she had to be kind but she can't. All her old emotions are gone. Shizune sighed. She needed her breath. It wasn't every day you were attacked in the middle of the night for her.
"Tsunade wanted me to give you a message," she said. She drew another breath. Sakura rose a perfect brow.
"At this hour?" she asked. "Not even I'm awake at this time." There! She was being nice. After all, she doesn't talk that much. She was like the Uchiha after all right? Don't tell her that I wrote that. I might end up in a much worse situation then Naruto.
"Yes," she said. "She said that it was very important. You have a mission. Be at her office in half an hour." Sakura gave a small nod. She grumbled a bit. She might not have a chance to train today. That was like Tsunade with out a cup of sake in the morning. Shizune went to the door. "Don't be late."
"I never am now am I right?" Sakura asked. Hey! She was still being nice. Talking that long is her way of showing it. Shizune left through the door.
Sakura's eyes became sharper. 'She is up to something.' Sakura thought. Sakura took her kunai. She looked at what she hit instead of Shizune. Sakura didn't really aim for the attacker. She preferred the torture. She saw the picture. Why didn't she get rid of it?
The picture was of team seven. It was back when she had just became a ninja. How long ago was it? She couldn't really tell. Sakura glared at the picture. She was smiling and so was Naruto. Kakashi was defiantly smiling. She glared at the one person in the picture. She seems to have hit his face right on the dot. She hit Sasuke right in the face with her kunai. Sakura tore the picture apart. She hated it so much.
"That basterd," she said. She stared at the clock in the room. The half an hour was almost over. She wouldn't want to be late about this. Something told her that this would actually be...fun.
Sakura quickly changed. She no longer wore any light colored outfits. That was the old her. Sakura wore a black shirt. It had the Haruno sign on the back. She quickly tore it off and threw it out.
"I'm no Haruno," she said. She chose another black shirt. There was no sign on it this time. She chose a pair of black baggy pants. They had a pocket for her weapons. She was always ready for anything. Sakura went to mirror. She rarely looked at herself. Why should she? She didn't give a shit about her cloths. She only cared if they had the Haruno sign. Those outfits had to be destroyed. She saw no bags under eyes. Good. That meant that her body was still used to the sleepless nights. She looked at her eyes.
They were dull like they always. Sharp and cold like none had seen before. She had her eyes below a glare. That was usual for her. Either her eyes were set like this or they were in a glare. Sakura continued to look at her eyes. She saw a small brightness in them.
Her eyes grew in fury. They were set into a glare. She hated to have any speak of emotion. She abandoned them. Can't they leave her alone? She broke the mirror with her fist. No blood came out of her fist. She left the room, apartment to go to Tsunade's office.
Sakura walked around at a very early time. No one was walking at all. She felt a presence next to her. Sakura used her reflexes. She drew a kunai out and positioned it at the persons neck. The most vital area for her. She could easily kill someone with one slash like this.
"It is only me Haruno," the person said. Sakura knew it was him. She hated it when he came out like this. Sakura put the kunai away. "I thought you were strong." Fury grew inside of her.
"Shut the fuck up," she nearly yelled. "I know it was you. I'm not an idiot." He smirked. She was always like this. Few words that had big meaning.
"Whatever Haruno," he said. Sakura drew the kunai back to his throat. He was shocked at this.
"Don't call me that!" she yelled this time. "I'm no Haruno! Never!" he frowned at this. 'Whatever.' he thought.
"Whatever Sakura," he said. Sakura put the kunai away again. She went towards her direction. His eyes pierced her right threw. She of course ignored it.
"Don't walk at this time Neji," she said. "You never know attackers." (I thought that it might be Sai or something. You could have thought that too. I didn't want to choose Sai because I didn't know the charecter that much.)
"And what about you Sakura?" he asked. "Your just a konoichi." She almost shook her head.
"Say whatever you want to," she said. She went towards her direction. She knew she would make it. She was never late but only early. Sakura made it to the hokage's office early. Wasn't that usual? She sat down on the chair.
Tsunade was very exhausted. She was sleeping on her desk at that moment. Sakura let Tsunade sleep for a little bit. Then, on the right time, she would wake Tsunade up. Some time passed by. Sakura was occupied by the silence, another thing she liked. That of course included training.
"Wake up Tsunade," she said. No answer. This time Sakura slammed her hand on Tsunade's desk. Tsunade yanked her head up.
"Your on time," she said as she looked at the clock.
"I'm never late," she said. Tsunade waited a little bit. Then she cleared her throat.
"I have some thing special for you," she said. Sakura watched Tsunade. 'I knew something was going on.' she thought. Her mind couldn't tell what it was.
"What is it?" Sakura asked. She really wasn't in the mood. Tsunade smirked.
"Join the ANBU," she said. Sakura glared. She hated it when Tsunade started this. Didn't Sakura say no enough?
"No," she said. "I said this before." Tsunade frowned at this. Then of course she smirked. Who said that it was optional?
"It's not optional Sakura," she said. "It's by force." This time Sakura glared at her harder.
"I still say no," she said. Tsunade frowned and smacked the desk.
"This is not your choice Sakura!" she yelled. "I want you an ANBU! Today!" Sakura glared harder.
"Why?" she asked. Tsunade sighed and shook her head.
"I have a special mission for you," she said. "It's for ANBU's and so you have to join to get it." Sakura listened. "You do want to bring him back and interrogate him your way right?" At the word him Sakura snapped. Then of course, the torture perked her ears up.
"I'm listening," she said. "Go on." Tsunade smirked. She knew how to get through Sakura.
"You have to bring him back here," she said. "You will have all the rights to talk, beat or any of the sort to him." Sakura nearly smirked. This would be fun. 'Payback is so sweet isn't it?' she thought.
"I accept," she said. Sakura stood up. She was going to have her fun. That basterd deserved more then death from her.
"Good," Tsunade said. "Go to the gates. The mission starts today. You are in team number three. The captain is Neji." Sakura frowned a bit more by his name. "Naruto is second in command." Shocking isn't it? "Hinata and Ten-ten are joining as well." Sakura gave a small nod.
"Whatever," she said. Sakura went to the door. "Be sure to have your sake. After all, it is a bad day." Tsunade gave a small chuckle and a nod. Sakura left the room.
"Good luck Sakura," she said. "Maybe your heart can finally heal and your soul can finally return."
Sakura quickly packed. She took some weapons and cloths. Just in case she took some water. It might be a long journey. Sakura walked up to the broken mirror. She didn't believe in luck.
"..." she didn't say a thing. Sakura left the apartment the second time that day. She went to the gates. So far she was the first one there. That was good.
"Hello Sakura!" Naruto yelled to her. She expected them all to be together. Neji, Ten-ten, Hinata and Naruto came at the same time.
"..." she didn't say anything again. Naruto chuckled. He knew Tsunade could get her in by force.
"Let's go," Neji said. "You do know what is going on right?" he asked Sakura. A smirk played on his lips. Sakura wanted to wipe it right off. She said nothing. She gave a small nod. "Good." Sakura walked with the four. She was really looking forward to see Sasuke. Hell will know what might happen to him.
"Payback time," she said to herself. 'Basterd.' she thought. 'Let's see how you like it to be treated like the way you did to me.' Sakura didn't have any smirk on her lips. She was emotionless right? She abandoned her feelings. She could never step back on that now.
So how was this chapter? Plese review! I was planning to give this in yesterday but I couldn't give in the document. There was a problem with the site. Freaking computer. (Hits it hard.)
