Chapter 1 Deeper Realizations

"I have always watch Sasuke and Naruto from the background. I've seen how they have grown, how they have gotten more powerful, more skillful, everyday.

Yet I still just watch from behind.

Being protected, not truly being loved.

I really just don't know anymore. Sasuke is gone. I guess it is truly over for the both of us.

What will I do now? What is my meaning, my goals, what does my heart say about all this? Maybe…maybe I should look… in my heart… and mind."

It was 3:00 in the morning, a few days after Sasuke had left the village. Sakura was lying in her bed, deep in thought.

"I should really get some sleep", Sakura thought to herself. She could hear her parents sleeping in the room next to hers, and had a feeling of safety swept over her. It was always comforting to know that her family was near.

But there was something else about Sakura that no one knew about. It was her deepest, darkest secret. She lived with it her whole life, and will live with it for the rest of her life as well. This ability that was inside her was freighting, and she was afraid to use it. One night long ago she swore to herself to never use this ability, until now.

Next Day

Sakura got up the next morning, a little later than usual because she did not get that much sleep that night. She gathered her things for the day, a snack, and her kunai's, and quickly looked in the mirror before leaving; making sure she looked ok. Then she headed out the door to the bridge in the village to meet Naruto. Since Sasuke had left Sakura and Naruto started to train more and did some missions as well.

As Sakura went outside she was temporally blinded by the sun. It was a beautiful spring day, and everyone was out and about. She stated to head in the direction of the bridge, wondering if Naruto was even up yet. She knew how much of a deep sleeper Naruto was. But she let it go and decided to take her time going to the bridge.

But on the way there Sakura started to really slow down. More than she had intended to.

"Ah, my head is really starting to hurt." Sakura thought her herself. "This is weird I really don't get headaches that much, but this one really hurts."

Sakura could feel herself swaying and loosing balance. But she was able to shake it off.

"Wow that was weird!" She said out load. She decided to forget about it and kept going.

"It must have been from the lack of sleep" she concluded to herself.

A little while later she reached the bridge, and was not a surprised at all to her to see that Naruto was late again. Seeing that she would have some time to spare, Sakura decided to wait there instead of going all the way to Naruto's house to wake him up.

"Naruto can be so annoying; he is always making me wait around." She said as she folded her arms.

But just as the words were leaving her mouth she realized something.

"That must be how Sasuke feels about me!" she whispered to her self. At that moment she felt alone and sadden. It felt like a little cloud had suddenly appeared over her, and only around her.

Just them as she almost lost herself in her own thoughts she heard the yelling of her name.

"S-A-K-U-R-A!"

She looked over just in time to see a blond hair boy wearing an orange jumper running over to her. Instantly she knew it was Naruto and was actually glad to see him, she was getting pretty lonely.

"Good morn-" Naruto started to say but was cut off. He was interrupted with Sakura's fist hitting his head.

"WHERE WERE YOU? I GIVE YOU A SPECIFIC TIME TO BE HERE AND YOU ARE LATE. PROBABLY SLEEPING IN YOU LAZY BAKA!" She then continued to smash Naruto in the head till she thought that he had enough, and then she let him go and proceeded to lecture him.

"Naruto, sensei said to meet him here in the morning; so I gave a specific time. What if he came and you weren't here. That is so rude Naruto." She said folding her arms once again.

"Like it really matters you know as much as I do that he is always late. So I decided to take my time." Naruto said with a big grin.

Sakura couldn't really argue back on this one because as odd as it was Naruto was right. Their sensei was always really late, and she knew it too.

"That is besides the point Naruto, you have to learn to be a little more punctual." But before Sakura could finish her lecture she started to get that same head ach again. But this time it was much worse, much, much worse.

It felt all of a sudden like her head was on overdrive. She couldn't see straight, or hear Naruto's voice. Her head was hurting so bad she almost thought that she was being stabbed with a thousand kunai's, all over her body. She couldn't concentrate, but she started to hear all theses different voices in her head. Some were normal conversations, and some were sad, happy, mad, and screaming voices, all ringing in her head. She couldn't take it. All she remembered seeing was Naruto's worried expression, and then she blacked out.
