I honestly was going to post this two nights ago but fan fiction was down. It did take me a while to write this chapter cause I got writers block earlier in the week. Ohhh and if anyone wants to know what Saya looks like go to my site (the addy is on my profile) then go to fan art, then fanfiction characters. took rather a while to draw it has to be said but I was pleased with the outcome.

And now on with chapter three....
Chapter 3
"My feet are killing me." moaned Sakura, plonking herself down on a bench. Saya sat down next to her.
"Mine too." They had been wandering around town all morning.
"Kakashi-sensei!" Said sakura waving to her team leader. Kakashi didn't look up from the book he was reading, come come violence volume II, but he waved at her.
"Hey Sakura." Yelled a girl with black buns on either side of her head. Her arm was linked through that of a boy the same age with long black hair and white eyes.
"Hi, Tenten, Neji." Sakura waved at them. Neji nodded, not being one to talk much. They both carried on walking. Having some sort of playful argument. Sakura wispered in Saya's ear, "They got engaged last week. But they still always argue. Tenten usually starts them and Neji doesn't say a word then she gets all cross. But they always end up making up straight after.
Saya nodded, "Is that boy a Hyuuga?"
"Yeah. How did you know?" Sakura asked a little shocked.
"The white eyes. Not many people have them. The Hyuuga clan are famous for them." Saya laughed, "I'm surprised i remembered that."
"Well i suppose you remember more than you think and things just trigger off the memories."
"It's odd. I remember all the jutsu's i learnt and i've retained all my medical knowedge. But i can't even remember who my family are. I probably wouldn't know who they were even if they were staring me in the face." She laughed again. Sakura looked at Saya from the corner of her eye. Saya's face was smiling but her eye's weren't. They were cold and hard. Like she wasn't feeling happy at all deep down.
Saya caught a snatch of a conversation from some men passing by, "I heard that the Uchiha kid is going to be entered this year."
Uchiha. She heard voice's in her head, from a memory, a conversation she from a time ago.
''what's your reason for all this? For all the killing?' her own voice
'To test my strength' a male voice
'who are you?'
'Uchiha.'
"Oh yeah, that reminds me. Hokage-sama wanted to see you when you had a spare minute." Saukra said thoughtfully
"huh? Why does Hokage want to see me?"
Sakura was about to say somthing about Tsunade being Saya's Godmother but she checked herself because Tsunade had said not to tell. "No idea. We should probably go and see her now actually. We've seen all there is to see."
"Well then lets go!" she said getting up.
Sakura stood too. "Ah my feet still kill!"
Hokage office
As the two girls walked up the stairs, Sakura's parents were coming down, arguing.
"Mum, Dad? What are you doing here?" Said Sakura surprised
"We've had to Talk to Hokage-sama." Said Hana, "Ah, you must be Ichiro Saya."
"i am." Said Saya politely
"I'm Haruno Hana, and this is Haruno Rai. We're Sakura's mother and father."
"I think she gathered that mum." Said Sakura under her breath.
"Don't cheek your mother Sakura." Said Rai
Sakura scowled.
"We'll see you two later we've got lots to do." Said Hana, pulling her husband away before he could scold Sakura anymore. This caused them to argue again as they walked down the stairs.
"How could you agree to somthing like that. Haven't we got enough on our plate?" Rai said.
"Well, it's the least we could do Rai-kun" Her mothers voice became unhearable as they got further away
"They are so unbelievable." said Sakura shaking her head. "Always arguing."
Sakura banged on Tsunade's door then opened it. Tsunade was asleep on top of a pile of papers.
"Hokage-sama!" Yelled Sakura.
Tsunade woke with a start, "Yes Sakura?"
"I brought Saya to see you."
"Oh yes." She Said pretending to arrange the papers on her desk in some sort of order, "Right, Sakura, if you wouldn't mind i would like to speak to her on her own."
"Hai, Hokage-sama." Said Sakura. She pushed Saya into the room and closed the door behind her.
"Saya. how are you? sufficiently recovered?"
"Yes thank you."
"My name's-"
"Tsunade" They both said together
"So you remembered?" Said Tsunade
"As soon as i saw you i remembered you. But I still can't remember anything about my family."
"I will endeavour to tell you as much as your mind could probably take at the moment, because if i tell you too much it could overload your brain and non of your memories would come back."
"Ok, Tsunade-sensei. Tell me."
Sakura drummed her fingers on her leg as she sat waiting for Saya to come out of Tsunade's office. She had been sitting there for about forty five minutes now. She yawned, and slid down the chair she was sitting in. It sure was warm in the hall, she felt like going to sleep. Her head lulled onto her shoulder as she drifted into a light sleep. The door banged open and Sakura jumped and slid off the chair onto the floor.
"Sakura, why are you on the floor?" Asked Saya
"I sliped off the chair." She said sleepily.
"okay. Sakura i know you waited for me, but can i meet you back at your house later? I have something to do first. Sorry."
"Uh-huh that's fine. I'll see you later then." Sakura walked off rather slowly, yawning as she made her way down the stairs.
Saya wandered along the corridor, and down the steps at the far end. She went into the flower shop opposite called Yamanaka flowers.
"Hey, can i get a bunch of white roses please?" Said Saya to the bonde girl behind the counter.
"Aren't you that girl Ichiro Saya?" Said the blonde gathering together the flowers.
"Yeah."
"I'm Yamanaka Ino. I heard you're on the same team as Sasuke-kun."
"Yeah i am."
"Well just you remember that Sasuke-kun is mine. So don't go near him."
"God, does everyone in this village love him or something. I've heard so many people talk about him. Don't you worry, i'm not interested in him." Said Saya handing over her money to Ino and taking the flowers, leaving her gobsmacked that there was at least one girl who wasn't obsessive over Sasuke. Now Saya could see why Sakura and Ino didn't get on. During the course of the day Sakura had told Saya quite a lot about herself and they had become pretty good friends.
Saya peered around her and realised she was lost. This part of the village didn't look familiar at all. But she was assured by Tsunade that if she continued along this road she would get to where she wanted to go. She heard soft crying,and being the inquisitive type she followed the sound. It led her right where she wanted to go. She hid behind a tree and watched. A woman with long black/dark purple hair was crouching by a black stone monument.
"Hayate. Why..." She cried her tears spilling onto the black marble. She stood up, laying a single lilac flower at the bottom. She walked off with her back to Saya, wiping away the tears.
Saya looked around and saw there was no-one else there. She walked up to the monument and placed her white roses alongside the lilac flower. She looked along the names, tracing her finger down the long list of names. so many people died for Konoha. Most of them it seemed against the great fox demon seventeen years ago. She found what she was looking for. Ichiro Ryu. Her father. Tsunade said it happened while he was on a mission. Saya knew she had hardly seen her father when she was younger because he was always in high demand for the missions.
She remembered after Tsunade had told her that she had spent a lot of time going back and forth between Konoha and the wave country. She took the Chuunin exam and passed when she was ten, then moved to the wave country with her mother and uncle. Her uncle, she was told had taken over head of the clan when Ryu had died.
She knew she didn't like her uncle. Feelings filtered through the wall, a deep hatred for him. He never liked the idea that a girl got the power of Ichiro.
She heard a sound behind her, and she spoke out, "There are many names here of ninja who have died for Konoha. They must have loved this village a lot." "They certainly did. So you noticed me?" The voice belonged to Kakashi
"It's not as if you were trying to be quiet. You weren't trying to hide yourself, so I could hear you."
"Very observant of you. Hokage-sama told me I could find you here."
"Kakashi, I want answers. About my father. About what happened. When you got back after that mission you wouldn't tell me what happened and neither would anyone else. You said I was too young. Well now I'm not, and I want to know."
"Well I guess I'm going to have to tell you. Ryu, Obito and I were in a team together, this was when we were all quite young. I think you were about five at the time. [A/n if it turns out Obito died long before that, well I can't help it] We were asked to go on a regular mission, guarding one of our own who was liasing between the hidden rain village to keep the peace, or so it would seem. Hidden rain you see, we've never had the best of relations with them. They've tended to try to take over Konoha in the past. Well this person turned out to be working for them. One night while we were resting, he thought we were asleep and he went to a meeting. Ryu followed them, and found out they were plotting to take over Konoha. When he got back to us he told Obito and I about what they said, but by that time the hidden rain ninja had found out we knew. Ryu offered to stay behind and hold as many of them off as possible. It was a suicide mission. But we had to let him stay so we could get back to Konoha and warn everyone. Inevitably some got through and they attacked us. Obito took a shuriken that was covered in poison that was meant for me, so that I could get back and warn everyone. Even nearly dead he fought well against them. I managed to get back to the village and tell everyone, and we brought down the hidden rain attack. Your father was very brave. He gave his life to save the village, without any thought for himself. A true shinobi. I just wish that it was me who stayed instead, I had no family to go back to and he did. H had so much more to live for than I, as did Obito." Kakashi sighed, overcome with emotion.
Saya stared at him for a while before saying something , "I...Thank you Kakashi-san. For telling me, and I think my father did the right thing, I'm proud of him. You shouldn't say that you should have died instead of someone else. Fate deals out our cards and we must play them as dictated."
"You sounded very much like your father then." Said Kakashi, "I want you to know that I would do anything to bring your father and Obito back."
"That's ok." She smiled, "You don't need to they are here in our hearts all the time."
Hee hee well that was a rather weird ending. I hope everyone liked it and if you feel like it I would love it if you could review it.
