Hi people! Thanks for the previous reviews. Sorry for the short chapter before yesterday. I had some writer's block so I couldn't think of much. But anyway, for my shortness (Not by height!) I decided to writer the chapter a little bit longer then usual.This will be the last update for this week and probably the next. (I have a trip to Italy and will be busy relaxing.) So here is the next chapter of Abandoned!
Disclaimer: I still don't know what this means but I still don't own Naruto.
"Blah" Some ones talking.
'Blah' Some ones thinking.
"Blah" Flashback talking.
"Sakura!" she heard. Sakura looked up and smiled. She knew that voice. She had always loved that voice.
"I'll be alright, Sasuke," she said. Sakura pulled chakra into her hands. She released it and let it heal her own wounds. "I'm sorry I killed him for you Sasuke."
"It's alright, Sakura," he said. He held her tight. "As long as your alright." Sakura smiled to herself.
"But it isn't over," she said. Sasuke lifted her head a little ans looked at her with confusion.
"There is more you need to know."
"What do you mean?" Sasuke asked. Sakura bent her head down a little. "Sakura?" he asked. "What do you mean that there is more?" he shook her shoulders gently.
"Even if Itachi is still dead," she said. "There is one person, that I don't belong to but some one that might try to hurt you again."
"Who is it Sakura?" he asked.
"Orochimaru (spelling problem here.)" she answered. "I lied before, about the attack that only Tsunade knows." Sakura paused and bit her lip. "I was with Orochimaru just like you." Sakura gave another pause. "I was with him when you were. You may have not seen me fully without my disguise I was there."
"What do you mean?" he asked. Sakura sighed. 'Maybe I should tell him everything.' she thought. Sakura paused but then began telling her story.
Sakura's POV.
I walked past the others to him. I didn't so this for Sasuke or my village but for myself. My mask held on to my face tight while my short hair was covered. I knew that I would have to see him, Sasuke. I still remember what I told Tsunade. I told her that I would leave for while which she permitted. I was her favorite student after all. I opened the door with ease. My disguise seemed perfect. To be sure, I put on a navy blue coat and white pants with a black fishnet top.
"Sakura-san," I heard. I tried my best not to glare but I just stood there frozen, rigid on any touch. "I have been waiting for you for quiet some time." I bow down in respect though inside, I feel disgusted.
"Orochimaru ," I said. "I only came here for my needs and yours. Nothing more." He let out a cackle which I thought was a laugh.
"So it seems," he said. I remained quiet. I felt a glare in my back. Some one was watching and I only had one idea. He entered the room just now and I found that good. He wouldn't know that I'm here. "Have you met a student of mine?" he asked. "Sasuke Uchiha." I turned and bowed down under his glare. I quickly returned my posture and turned to Oro.
"I cannot stay here long," I said. He nodded.
"I know," he said. "The scroll you are looking for, I have it and will teach you what you want. In return of course..."
"I'll give you what you want," I said finishing his sentence. I felt Sasuke give a look to me. "You can stop your glares," I said. "I can feel it as if your trying to burn right through me." Oro gave another cackle.
"Quite bold you are," he said. "Sasuke, take her to her room and you," he paused staring at me. "Do not forget our agreement." I nodded and quickly left behind Sasuke.
Sasuke didn't look at me but could feel his hatred for me. I smirked a bit. He still didn't have no fucking idea with who I was. As we walked he stopped for a second and so did I.
"What type of deal did you make with that snake basterd?" he asked.
"You do not have to call him that way Uchiha-san," I said. Sasuke glared at me while a still kept my composure.
"Answer me," he demanded. I stayed quiet but finally reached my answer and voice.
"That is my business and mine only Uchiha-san," I answered. Angered, he pinned me to the wall and growled. I took out a kunai and like a reflex, hit him in the gut quickly. Sasuke let go of me and glared. "I don't answer just any one. And you, Uchiha-san, cannot hear my answer." After those words he remained quiet.
"Hn," he said. Sasuke began to walk and she followed quietly. I checked my hair to make sure none of it would stick out. Hell would rise if it did. On my journey, I couldn't changed my appearance since I was busy getting into the right character. After this, when I would be alone, and free, I will defiantly change my look. "This is your room," Sasuke said and stood next to a door. I opened it and stepped in.
"Thank you," I said.
"Hn," he said and left. When I heard the door close behind me I quickly took off the mask. Then I let my hair fall out of the wig I put on. Since I had time and free chakra to use I preformed my changing jutsu. When it was done, my hair was just like the wig, hair was golden brown and short. My jade green eyes were now a deep color of blue. I threw my wig away and sat down on the blue bed. It seemed familiar some how. I heard the doorknob turn and looked up.
"What are you doing here Uchiha-san?" I asked. He stared at me with his onyx orbs.
"This is my room," he answered. "Orochimaru doesn't have any free rooms any more so he decided that we should share this room until there is another free one." That must have been the longest sentence I have ever heard from him. I nodded and stood up from his bed.
"I have to go to Oro for the training now," I said as I walked to the door.
"Who exactly are you?" he asked. I turned to him and gave a small smirk with my almost glare eyes.
"Some one you should now," I answered and left.
"Sakura-san," Oro said when I entered the room. "Why the disguise?" he asked.
"If I was not in the same room with Sasuke I wouldn't need my disguise," I said. "Your trying to get me caught right?" I asked.
"It's a fun game to tease," he said as he stood up. "You, my dare Sakura-chan, are quite a fun toy to play with." he touched her face and she slapped his hand away. "As I said before, you're a great toy to play with."
"Cut the bullshit and teach me that technique," I said, seriously pissed off. He laughed evilly.
"Alright then," he said. "Follow me." I did as told and stayed a distance behind him. Even if I came to him for the technique it didn't mean that I can fully trust him. "This is the training ground," he said as we entered a small forest area around the base. "During your stay feel free to use it as you wish. At this time everyday, you will meet me here for your training and these sessions will end until I want them to. You will be able to leave the sound when you wish or perfected the technique." I nodded in these directions. "First, we must strengthen your chakra. Here is your sparring partner." A tall man walked next to Oro and he did seem strong to me. I smirked. Bring it on.
"Let's see how good you are, hotty," he said. I glared at that name he called me. I felt Sasuke watch from a distance. Maybe n my fighting position and so did that basterd that called me hotty. As our battle began I took out a wind style shuriken. It was a classic favorite of mine. The man smirked and took out a kunai. I have seen those techniques before and got prepared. I twirled the shuriken and threw it at the man's direction.
"I'd like to see you dodge that," mumbled and smirked when he did. When he landed safely the shuriken didn't fall but instead followed him. "You should learn this technique," I said. "If you put a good amount of chakra into your weapon you can control it." I watched as it slashed through him and landed in my hand perfectly. He threw his kunai at me ignoring his bleeding wound. I caught the kunai in one hand and let it fall to the ground. "Time for the second throw!" I yelled as I once again threw the shuriken towards him. I quickly performed the right seals that made him stick to the ground. The shuriken slashed through him again and came back to me. The man fell to the ground, dead.
"Well done," Oro said. "I see that your quiet strong Sa-"
"Is this a man you call strong?" I asked as I cut him off. Hell might rise if Sasuke would now that it was me.
"Aa," he said. "Not quiet" I closed my eyes and rubbed my head. I should have known that the technique would give me a headache. "Now then, I guess we can stop for now. You may come tomorrow for your real practice." I turned around and went to my room that was well, technically Sasuke's. As I laid down on the bed a bit I looked up. That headache was getting on my nerves. I thought of resting but then, that wouldn't have been appropriate. I decided to lay down on the couch to relax for some time.
"How could you beat him?" I heard and didn't bother to open my eyes.
"It's called chakra control," I answered. I wasn't in the mood of being serious and settled into being a sarcastic bitch for a moment or two. (A.N. I need to get a shirt for myself that says sarcastic bitch truth to be told.) "You should already know this for yourself." he growled in response.
As night fell upon I kept my disguise. I didn't care how much chakra it took since I had to spare. Before, when I was in Kohona, I learned to control chakra and use a limited amount every day. It was like a schedule. I heard Sasuke walk up to me and turned around. I was currently researching medical skills and genjutsu skills.
"What?" I asked. To add more of a disguise I put on a pair of glasses. They were fake of course.
"You remind me of someone," he said. I froze. Had he found out who I really was?
"And what about it?" I asked, trying to keep my posture calm and composed. He shook his head.
"Nothing," he said. "It's time for bed. I have a futon for you to use." he gave me a futon which I laid down next to the window. I closed my eyes and felt the moon shine on me. As I fell asleep I heard one thing. "Your just like her."
"Aa, so you're here early," Oro said as he entered the training grounds. I just glared at him. "Let us begin. Try to perform these seals with no chakra." I did as told and memorized each seal specifically. "Good," he said. "Now try with your chakra." I did as told once more and felt a green light take part of me. When I let go nothing happen except the burning feeling that had all over my skin. "You have no control over it. When you first learn this attack it burns but this phase slowly changes. Try this attack again but aim at a tree." I preformed the seals and let the glow take me again. This time I concentrated my chakra to the tree in front of me. As I let the green glow escape I watched as my body was full of the green marks. The green glow turned into cherry blossom petals which destroyed more then the tree. As that finished I winced as the green marks left scratches on my skin which started to bleed.
"What is this?" I asked. "Why do I bleed from these marks?" Oro smiled evilly again.
"Because dear Sakura-chan," he began. "You just gave me another life. That was the cursed seal you just made on yourself. You are free to use it you wish. When I die the first time this seal will not go away but instead stay until I finally die for my last time and never live again. The green marks are like targets for your scratches to appear. Mow, all you need to do is master this attack. The session is dismissed. But before I go, you had better change your appearance since your pink hair does make an attraction." I stayed on the ground and clenched my fists. How much crap can I get myself into?
When entered the room I made sure that my disguise was back on. I had to find some time to recharge my chakra. I saw Sasuke look up at me when I entered.
"I still don't know your name," he said. I felt irritated and annoyed. I knew what to say. I just let some of my anger out.
"That, as I said before, is my business Uchiha-san," I answered.
"Answer me this time," he demanded.
"No," I said. "Now just let me be. I'm tired enough." who wouldn't be? After all that shit I went through and now my own curse seal? I'm so screwed.
"Sakura," he said. I turned around.
"What are you talking about now?" I asked. "Don't even think that I'm this chick you know."
"And yet, you could be her," he said. "You could just have changed your look."
"Your annoying," I said. I laid down on the futon leaving him in his wake. "Goodnight Uchiha-san."
"Do not call me Uchiha-san," he said. "Just call me Sasuke."
"Whatever, Sasuke," I said and fell into my sleep. Seriously though, he was really getting on my nerves. Or for short, he's pissing me off.
"Cherry blossom jutsu!" I yelled as practiced. This time I knew how much chakra would use and the rest I would save up. I let my body bleed when was done with the attack and rested on a tree while healing my wounds.
"Another medic?" I heard and looked down. I glared at this man. He was a traitor. Kabuto. It was strange that I didn't see him before. "Or are you just a fighter instead?"
"Both," I answered. He stared at me for a moment and then smirked.
"Sakura-san," he said. "I never thought that would be you. Have you decided to join Orochimaru for Sasuke."
"I'm only here to train," I answered. "Nothing more, nothing less. Now leave before I cut your throat so I don't have to listen to your voice." Kabuto chuckled and headed his way.
"A pointless threat," I heard and glared at the person.
"Leave," I said. "I have no time for annoying basterds." I looked down and saw Oro next to Sasuke and jumped down. I had already healed my wounds and recharged my chakra.
"Early again," Oro said. "Maybe it would be better if you stayed with us."
"Hell no," I said. And got my weapon pouch ready. "Is it time to train already?" I asked and Oro nodded.
"But," Oro said. "Sasuke insists that he watches. So instead of that technique I will give you another spar to give you more power. This will be a stronger opponent." I nodded understanding the terms. Another tall and well built man came to the training ground. Stronger? Yeah right. I got out my shuriken again. How much I loved this weapon. He got out normal shuriken and glared at me. As the battle began I threw the shuriken but instead of letting it follow I decided to use another technique. He dodged the shuriken and I disappeared. I let the shuriken fall next to him and stayed hidden. When it was time I appeared next to the shuriken and took it. I picked it up without opening it and slashed him in the arm. He creamed in pain and I had a blank expression. A ninja must never show emotions. I had to live by that rule.
"AAAHHHHHH!" he screamed in pain. He covered his wound and threw his shuriken at me. I finally opened the shuriken and slashed his other arm. I wouldn't ever let myself lose. He fell to his knees to the ground. "Will you kill me now?" he asked.
"There are more things that are worse then death," I said. "This is a battle. You must never ask for death." I put my shuriken away on my back and walked away.
"Nicely done," Oro said. "This will be it. Sasuke, have you seen what you wanted to see?" he asked Sasuke. Sasuke nodded and walked to his room and so did I.
"Why didn't you kill him?" Sasuke asked. "That could show a weakness for you." I took inn that insult/advice. Tomorrow might be my last day. I did want to leave, I hated this killing and battles. "Well?" he asked.
"Is there more to you then power?" I asked and turned to him, shocking him a bit. "Or are you just a greedy cold hearted basterd?" my anger was rising a bit and so was my voice. I knew I had to be some where away from him. My disguise was taking too much chakra.
"Power is all that I need," he said. I turned away once more. But before I did I saw a look in his eye. He was shocked of something about me. I later found out what it was. My eyes had changed from it's deep blue to emerald green.
Today was to be my last day. I had decided on that yesterday. I wasn't sure before but after the incident with my eyes I had to leave. I walked to the training grounds, not early, not late but on time.
"Let us begin," Oro said and I nodded. I still couldn't believe I fell for his curse. Now I had to master it even if I didn't want to. I had to know it's affects or I wouldn't know what would happen. As I began I preformed the seals over and over. Then I finally used my chakra and made sure to hit a amount of trees. Hopefully I hit that amount: fifty or so. As I looked and healed my wounds I saw that I already destroyed seventy trees but something strange happened. They began to grow back! "We have chakra that makes them grow," Oro explained. "This way we have something to use to train." I nodded and tried the attack again and again. I stopped when I had too many scratches and hardly any chakra left. The extra was used for my disguise. I healed my wounds with the last amount of chakra I had. "Nicely done," Oro said. "You have mastered the technique and may leave but I advice you stay. Good day now." I stood there and closed my eyes.
"I have Kohona to go to you basterd," I whispered. "Never will I stay here." I began to remember how many times I used the attack and relaxed a bit. I had lost count of how many trees I destroyed. It was defiantly over two hundred. I kept quiet and relaxed and let my stiff muscles breath.
"How about for a spar?" I heard. I turned around and saw a man. He was tall and built of course just like the rest. He grinned with his green eyes while I glared.
"No," I said. "I don't spar with the ones that can die with ease." I left him with those words. I hoped my disguise was still there. I had to go Sasuke's room. Some things I had were there. It was time I returned to Kohona. I guess I won't be gone for a while as I thought.
"Why did you do it?" I heard as I entered the room. I ignored him and packed some of my things. "Answer me Sakura!" he yelled.
"Why the hell do you think that I'm Sakura?" I yelled. "I'm not her!" I was then pinned to the wall again. I cursed mentally. I had no weapon to use.
"Yes you are," he said. "I saw those green eyes. No human eye can change from blue to green. And what of the wig? Don't think that I didn't see it!"
"I am not Sakura nor will I ever be!" I yelled. I punched him hard in the gut. "Stop comparing me to who I'm not. I'm not a replacement for a girl you one knew."
"Yet your not the replacement," he said. "You're the real thing." I took my bag and shuriken. It's blade was a little bit red from the slashing of bodies I have done here and in missions. I stared at it. "You held back in killing cause you can't do it, Sakura." I turned to him.
"I'm no Sakura to you," I said and left the room.
"It was me all along, Sasuke," Sakura said. "You were right before but I had to deny it. Orochimaru is still alive though."
"But I killed him!" Sasuke yelled and Sakura shook her head. 'Is he dense or something?' she thought.
"My curse seal is what keeps him alive," she said. "You saw before, with the battle with Itachi, I was able to use it. He's still alive. If he was dead then I couldn't even use the technique at all." Sasuke sighed.
"Then where is he?" he asked.
"I have a point that he is here, with Itachi all this time," she answered. "He was waiting for the right wen Itachi is gone and he is strong."
"Then where is he here specifically?" Temari, Kankuro and Gaara asked.
"There is no need to ask," they all heard. Sakura turned around and so did Sasuke. Orochimaru stood there, alive and looking well, non-dead of course. "Sakura-chan, I owe you this thanks. I wouldn't have been alive right now if it weren't for you."
"Drop dead basterd," she said. "Permanently." Orochimaru gave an evil cackle.
"Still feisty as ever," he said. "And what's this?" he asked as he observed Sasuke and Sakura. "Has Sasuke given up on power and took love instead? How sweet." Sakura glared at the snake man.
"I will not hesitate to kill," she warned. Oro laughed again.
"With the seal?" he asked. "I don't think so since I have full control of it." Sakura winced in pain and fell to the ground.
"Sakura!" Sasuke screamed. She screamed in pain and kneeled down. "You basterd." (Takes one to know one.)
"I'd like to see her live through this trap." Oro chuckled evilly and disappeared into
the darkness.
