Tears of True Love

Chapter 04 – Sakura's Mission

Sakura sat on her bed, hugging her legs tightly up to her chin. Suddenly, a load knock came on the door. At first, she didn't want to answer, wished she could stay alone with herself in privacy, after all, that's all she had been doing for the past 2 day, ever since the stupid TV. show ruined her life… after life. Eventually she sighed, realizing she couldn't hide away in the dark forever. "Come in."

The door creaked open, reviling the all too familiar Tadashi. "Hey, you ok?" he said. Sakura looked up at him in surprise. 'He actually cares? Wow, I guess I'm not really all that alone up here after all…' "Yah, I guess." She brought her legs closer to her chest and quickly found her feet very interesting again. Tadashi took a seat on the foot of her bed. "Well, if you're up to it, my Grandpa has asked to see you." Sakura switched her gaze from her feet to his eyes. "What? Why?" Sakura sat in a more upright position. "Well, he wants you to go on a mission." Sakura suddenly felt a quick jerk in her spine. It was as if she was back home, being asked to go on a mission. She wasn't sure if it was a good feeling or not. "What kind of mission?" Tadashi stood. "Well, usually during a mission an angel is sent to earth to try and prevent some type of death." Sakura looked at him in confusion. "But why me? I mean, I'm not even an official angel yet." Tadashi shrugged. "My Grandpa has his reasons… I think. Well, you coming?" She thought about it for a moment, and then nodded. Tadashi smiled down at her, extending his hand to hers.

Soon, the two were walking down the streets toward what seemed like the center of the city. After a few minutes of walking, a large marble building came into view. Suddenly, Tadashi stopped, thus making Sakura too halt and turn to see him. "I can't go any further. Only the person summoned on can go in." Sakura nodded, then turned back to the church like building before her.

As soon as she walked into the building, the doors closed behind her. Most would have jumped at the sudden noise, but Sakura was a trained Ninja, she was used to that sort of thing. Before her sat the large counter that she saw just a few days earlier. "Sakura Haruno." Sakura looked up to face the old man from when she first arrived. "Yes sir. What did you want me for?" The old man shuffled in his seat. "Well, as my grandson has most likely mentioned, we need you for a mission. Someone down on Earth is in danger, and we need you to help them." Sakura nodded. "This person is planning on committing suicide, so we need you to prevent this from happening." Once again, she nodded. "But sir, why me?" The old man coughed loudly. "Because, we send angels down who know the person personally, so they have a better chance of helping them." Sakura's eyes widened as images of all her friends rushed through her head. Eventually, she stammered in a weak voice, "W-who is it?" The old man folded his hands and rested them on his bearded chin. "Someone we are sure you know well, a boy by the name of Uchiha Sasuke."

Sakura just about fainted on the spot…again. Her eyes grew even wider as she stared into nothingness. Many thoughts rushed through her head, but strangely enough, none were of hate or anger toward he so called killer, but of friendship and love. Suddenly, Sakura could see herself standing on the small bridge in Konoha. Sasuke stood, leaning against the railing only inches from her. Then, a dark flash appeared and all she could see was a deep red blood, splattering from every angel, and then Sasuke's body lying motionless on the ground, blood pouring freely. When she snapped out of it, she found herself kneeling in the ground, tears trickling down her face into a pool on the marble floor bellow.

"Sakura, I you hold a grudge against him, we can find another." Sakura looked up at the council sitting before her and shook her head. "No, I'll do it." She brought her arm up to her eyes, whipping away any lose tears, and then she stood. "Do you want to be sent now?" Sakura thought about this for a moment, then shook her head once more "I want to say goodbye to Tadashi first." The old man nodded, and Sakura rushed to the doors.

When she pushed the large oak doors open, the sun came shining in on her face, causing her to squint. After a moment, she found Tadashi. "Tadashi!" He turned to her, smiling. "Well, are you going?" She nodded. Suddenly Tadashi noticed the stains on her face. "Who was it." He said in a quiet voice. Sakura looked down at her feet. "Sasuke." Tadashi's eyes grew wide. He couldn't believe even though he had killed her, she was willing to save him. Still, he knew that he didn't have the whole picture, and didn't want to cause Sakura pain by asking. "So, when are you leaving?" She looked back up at him. "Well, now I think. I just wanted to tell you I'd be gone for a bit." He nodded, "Ok. See you when you get back." Sakura nodded and turned to leave. She darted down the street back toward the building. Tadashi stood still, watching her go. "Good luck Sakura."

Sakura: WHAT? Sasuke's going to kill himself! WHY!

Sasuke: I'm killing myself! No! Itachi isn't dead yet! I can't!

Dani: Don't worry, he'll be ok… kind of… hum, would that count as ok…
