So after 3 years we got Sasuke back Naruto sighed he couldn't wait. But he was mad one year ago Sakura-chan had left she was tired of waiting for Sasuke, a rumor had be going around that someone had a pink haired women with an akatsuki cloak on. He shuddered at the thought of being Sakura-chan's enemy. Sasuke would return and find no Sakura here, the funny thing is Sakura is now about as Sasuke is if not stronger she had grown a lot she was a great ninja after Sasuke left she became a Jonin skipping the Chunin level. Two months later she became an ANBU Sakura was stronger than Naruto and Kakashi combined. But as she grew in ranks her old self began to disappear her eyes showed more sadness all the time her eyes began to weary and the pupils were disappearing, to but things simple she was dying. Finally one day she left Tsudane was very depressed and sent ANBU to find her but she knew it was pointless she was better than them all. Naruto looked up from his deep thoughts and there was Sasuke in the flesh. "Hey you dope, hmm…where's Sakura" Naruto looked down with a frown "She's gone she finally got tired of waiting and left, no one knows where she is, rumors say a pink haired girl was in the mist village walking around in a akatsuki cloak". Naruto looked up to see Sasuke's expression he had an angry look "Akatsuki" he growled he ran off to the hokage's tower he needed more information.
SAKURA'S P.O.V
Sakura was walking slowly towards the village hidden in the leaves her straw hat covered her face. She entered the
town knocking out the guard in the fog she then continued walking and entered a hotel and walked up to a room and unlocked the door she went in locked the door and waited for itachi and kisame.
She sighed taking off her hat and sat on the bed it was hard, hmm… I haven't been able to sleep since I joined
Akatsuki he looked different her eyes had no shine pupils the color had even darkened she had heavy bags underneath
them and her hair was longer (top of her butt) and kept in a low ponytail Deidara said it looked nice that way sasori on the other hand thought it looked better short. They then began to argue about her hair and how it was like art. She just sighed and walked away. She tried to sleep before Itachi and Kisame came but at that moment a gruff voice spoke "about to fall asleep eh? Sakura" she slowly turned to look just as she thought Kisame and beside him the quite Itachi "No" she whispered "I don't consider I have the casualty for that yet" Kisame grinned "we have to knock you out to make you sleep don't we" she just stared and said nothing but Itachi said "do you know where the fox may be?" "yes probably at the ramen store or the park…shall I go check" after a long pause "yes but don't become noticed" she looked at him with a smirk and said "yes of course" she jumped out the window seen as a women by civilians but to the Akatsuki as Sakura. She walked along the path until she spotted Naruto "Oi Naruto" the blonde looked at the women who called his name "you're Naruto Uzamaki' He nods 'wow I'm a big fan please come with me"
he blushed "um…sure miss" Sakura faked her excitement "oh really thank you so much" she yanked his hand an dragged
him back to the hotel. Finally he begins to question her "um…miss where are we going" as soon as they were near her
room and no one was in sight she went back into her Akatsuki form. "EH?!? SAKURA-CHAN!!!" her lazy eyes glanced at
him she answered "shut up Naruto" she kicked him into the apartment. Kisame and Itachi looked at her she sat on the
bed Naruto got up and walked over to Sakura he balled a fist and he tried to punch her but he stopped when she
looked up at him. He couldn't bring himself to do it, "why Sakura-chan why" he sobbed and fell to the ground she
looked at his pity "I'm not Sakura" he looked up tears welled up "THEN WHERE IS SAKURA BECAUSE YOU ARE HER" his
loyd voice the other two members watched "she's right here yet she's not Fox" he collapsed again "YOUR STUPID,
YOU KNOW THAT LEAVING THE LEAF LIKE THAT" he paused she just stared "what's happened to you Sakura" " I told you
I'm not Sakura" he said "bull" right before she knocked him out "such a nuisance" Kisame chuckled and picked up
the fox "Lets go" Sakura whispered She stood gathered Chakra and appeared in the hideout living room she collapsed
to the coach. Then a body sat beside her she opened her eyes there was Deidara looking at her smiling at her with a
brush. She sighed removed her cloak and let her hair down Deidara laughed and began to talk to her while combing
her hair he asked questions like "so how was the mission? and You know you ought to get more sleep or you'll
start to look like Itachi" who happened to be in the room. "what about looking like me" Deidara just stared like
nothing was wrong but kept brushing "oh what's the matter Ita-kun you miss Sakura-chan" he growled but just walked away. Sasori walked in and saw what Deidara had down to Sakura's hair and started to lecture him how it was not art at all. Sakura sighed and closed her eyes and removed her hair. Deidara started to whine "Eh? Sakura-chan you took your hair down. Awww Sakura-chan you broke my heart now give me a hug" Sakura looked at his expression and started to laugh "HAHA I MADE SAKURA LAGUH" her laughing turned into violent coughs and then she spitted out blood. "SAKURA" the yelled in unison " are you okay?" when Sakura didn't answer they began to worry she was just staring at the ground. Then a pair of arms picked her up and sat he down on the coach she just kept staring at the floor where her blood was. Sakura began to whisper "no no no no no" over and over, "Sakura what's wrong are you sick?" She looked in Deidara's eyes he jumped back her eyes were pure white "the illness has begun" Sasori dared to ask "Sakura what illness"
She sighed which turned into a fit of coughing as it settled down she began "my family has a curse, one will be born and have the illness because our stupid elders were terribly rude to a demon of great high class, my family begged for forgiveness and said only one would have the curse so my family would learn they're lesson, and it just so happens I have the curse symptoms. No sleep. Violent coughs. Blood spilling. A soulless aura." Sakura finally began to cry her body was dying and nothing could stop it, Deidara saw her and grabbed her into a soft family hug he stroked the back of her head and whispered "it's okay it's okay" rocking her back and forth when he stopped her eyes were peacefully shut. But her eyes shot back open and she coughed more violently. She saw Deidara look up "what are you doing It" then Sakura welcomed the darkness. Sakura's eyes began to open and she saw a bright white ceiling 'this doesn't look like the hideout' she jolted up but then a voice yelled "LAY DOWN SAKURA" she didn't listen there was her teacher Tsudane. 'Her comes the yelling' "Do you have any idea that you just turned up in the village with blood dripping out your mouth and an Akatsuki robe, WELL DO YOU?!?!" Sakura glanced up with dead eyes she replied calmly "Upon seeing your expression I guess not, yes, Tsudane I have no idea what your talking about well goodbye" Sakura was about to get up when someone pushed her back down.
