Prologue -

"Sakura! Get up or you'll be late for your first training session with your new team!" I slowly woke up to the sound of my mother's stern voice. I sat up groggily, my mind racing with last night's dream. What I saw… that couldn't have been real…. right?

I sighed and rolled out of bed as I heard my mother stomping down the hall to my room. "I'm coming! Just let me get dressed! Geez…" I said the last part under my breath as I heard her walk back to wherever she came from.

I began to slowly get ready for my first day as an official kunoichi, feeling a heavy amount of deja vu instead of excitement. It feels like I already experienced all of this in my dream, years ago. It was very unsettling to say the least. I began to feel sick to my stomach just thinking of whatever was happening to me.

It was the longest dream I've ever had, but it felt so vivid and real like I was actually experiencing it. I can't be too sure, but I feel like my dream was actually— the future. I distinctly remember from it, growing up as not only a kunoichi but also as a girl into a woman. Even fighting in a war against some dude named Madara Uchiha and then some strong alien lady named Kaguya. But, there is no way that is possible…. because if so, then the future for the newly formed Team 7 and Konoha is a dark and bleak one. One that should probably try to be prevented just based upon how much Team 7 went through.

I shook my head, trying to make the depressing thoughts disappear from my head. I grabbed my new ninja headband and used it to pull back my hair exactly like how I wore it in my dream. I studied myself in the mirro beginning to compare myself currently and the one at the end of my dream. I began to rub my long hair in between my fingers, contemplating on much better it would look short just like in my dream.

That's it— I'm going crazy. There was no way my dream was the future for the next five years. There's no way it can be that bad. And as if the Sasuke Uchiha would desert the village.

He's way better than those lowly rogue scum! You were just lucid dreaming, Shannaro! I nodded in agreement with Inner Sakura, beginning to feel better already. There's no way that me, a girl from a civilian family, could see the future. It was probably just lucid dreaming from nerves and excitement.

Everything that happened in the dream feels all too crazy to happen, too. Me falling in love with Naruto? Naruto Uzumaki, that annoying loser and idiot…. I'd rather die than think of him that way.

Like come on, while I do have a voice in my head but I'm not that crazy. And Sasuke trying to kill me… that does make me doubt Sasuke. But, only just a bit. I, of course, still care for him. I won't let some dream shake up my love for him.

However, that other stuff especially all that stuff with the tailed beasts and that rogue ninja group, that seems way too outlandish and fictional. I'm sure if such a group existed, the Anbu and Third Hokage would surely know. Although I'm not going to lie, I was pretty proud of how I excelled in medical ninjutsu and chakra control. I never imagined I could use chakra in such a way. Even if it was a dream, that was one of the few nice parts.

Although, that does have me thinking. Of course, becoming a medic ninja would be the best way to aid Sasuke. And that's one of the reasons why I became a ninja.

Hm, maybe after training today I'll ask Kakashi-sensei if he can get me a teacher in medical ninjutsu. I mean I do have great chakra control and an excellent memory. It shouldn't be hard too, considering I remember some tricks from that dream. That is of course, if there's any truth to it.

I'll find out, I suppose, if the training session goes exactly like how it did in the dream if it's actually the future. And if it is real…. I'll really have my work cut out for me then, I thought as I made my way to the training session.

A/N:

Hey guys, so I obvi decided to start over with another fic where instead of time travel, Sakura has a dream of the next five years of her life. I just couldn't write anything for the other one, so sorry if anyone actually liked it. I promise I'll try hard for this one tho so fingers crossed pls. I still haven't decided how Sakura will end up in this fic, but I plan to have fun with it and if anyone has any suggestions or ideas then don't hesitate to comment. And sorry if my writing sucks, I haven't really written anything at all recently so I'm a bit rusty. And this was just a little preview for y'all :) I'll try to update as often as I can but I am in my final year of school so it might not be consistent.

Italics are almost always going to be Inner Sakura talking, I love inner Sakura in ffs so I'm going to try it with this one
