Chapter 8: Who Am I?

They were all about to go to sleep when Sakura yelled out in pain and started to cough up blood. Within minutes Kisame and Sasuke who heard her scream and came and Itachi were at her side trying to figure out what was wrong with her. Sakura clutched her chest and yelled out in pain again.

"Sakura can't you heal yourself" Kisame asked

"What do you think I'm trying to do you dope." Sakura managed to get out as she glared at Kisame.

"Sakura don't talk you will only cause more pain." Itachi said. He picked her up and carried her to the front desk. He was getting blood on his chest because she began to cough up more blood.

"Where is the nearest medic nin this is an emergency." Itachi practically yelled

"Well um the medic nins are all out on missions you will have to go ask the Kazekage, I'm sure he will help you." The inn keeper said

"Damn, Sasuke come here." Itachi yelled "I cant take her to the Kazekage you have to take her, but the second he heals her i need you to get her out of there, hes going to want to take her into holding for interrogating and such." Itachi handed Sakura over to Sasuke, by this time she lost so much blood that she was going in and out of consciousness. Sasuke was jumping from roof top to roof top trying to get to the Kazekage tower as fast as he could. When he finally reached there he bursts into his office holding Sakura.

"Kazekage-sama i need your help, my dear friend here is near death." he said as he laid her limp body on the desk.

Gaara looked at Sasuke and then at Sakura and finally said no.

"What do you mean no you cant just let her die." Sasuke yelled.

"She is a wanted criminal who has Naruto. I will consider healing her if we can trade. I will heal her if you give me back Naruto." Gaara said calmly.

"Fine just heal her, ill go get Naruto now." Sasuke said as he jumped from the window.

"Well, well little Sakura i guess your life is in my hands now." Gaara said to no one in particular. He began to work on her, his hands emitted a light green glow. After about 15 minutes he was finally done with her and she began to regain consciousness. Sakura opened her eyes to find them locked with jade ones.

"Who are you." Sakura said quickly backing away from him. She didn't get a reply. She then heard a commotion by the door and saw Sasuke carrying Naruto. "Whats going on!" Sakura yelled

"Sakura your o k" Sasuke yelled as he embraced her in a hug. Sakura quickly pushed him away and pulled a kunai from the table she was laying on.

"Who are you, don't touch me. Where am i? Sakura yelled looking at both of them

"What did you do to her." Sasuke yelled as he started to run towards Gaara, but was quickly blocked by a shield of sand.

"I erased her memory." Gaara said calmly. Just then they heard the doors slam open once again.

"You did what!" Itachi yelled from the doorway

"i was wondering when you would show up Uchiha, Itachi." Gaara said

"How much of it did you erase." Sasuke asked

"She knows the important stuff like who she is, any and all jutsus she had learned in the past. She just doesn't remember any people or being an S class criminal. Its for the best this way she can go back to Konoha and start over and she will take Naruto with her." Gaara said

"No, she is coming with me." Itachi said as he walked towards her. Sakura was so confused by hearing all this and it was starting to frustrate her.

"don't i get a say in where i am going?" Sakura yelled

"No" Gaara said.

"Sakura i know you don't know who i am. But come with me i will help you remember." Itachi pleaded with her

"No Sakura, this is you chance to be a normal girl grow up being a normal ninja of the leaf village." Gaara said. Sakura wasn't sure what it was but she felt her self going towards Itachi. Her body was sort of just dragging her there, he seemed to really care about her after all.

"I think ill take my chances with you." Sakura said as she turned towards Itachi.

"I cant let you go with him Sakura." Gaara said as he sent sand towards her to grab her. Itachi immediately grabbed her bridal style once again and dodged the attack.

"Come on Sasuke, go get Kisame we need to leave Suna now." Itachi yelled towards Sasuke while trying to dodge several attacks sent by Gaara. They finally got out and for some reason unknown to her but she felt safe with this mysterious guy and just let him hold her. They were traveling for a couple hours when they finally got to a giant house.

"Is this where we live?" Sakura asked

"Yeah." Itachi said as they walked in. They were greeted by Sasori and Deidara who were playing cards.

"Welcome back guys, wheres the fox kid." Sasori asked

"With the Kazekage." Itachi said

"Are you gonna tell the boss, hes gonna be pretty mad at you three and why is Sasuke here." Deidara asked

"Ill tell you later, come on Sasuke ill show you where your sleeping." He said while putting Sakura down. She just stood there staring at the two playing cards and wasn't sure what to do, she just felt very awkward.

"Hey Sakura if you are just gonna stand there come here." Sasori said. Sakura walked over towards him. He set his cards down and reached out and pulled her onto his lap. Sakura yelped at this

"Let me go." Sakura yelled as she pushed her self off of him. " What makes you think that you can just pull me onto your lap. You don't know me and i don't know you, so just don't touch me."

"You know i was just joking around and what do you mean you don't know me." Sasori said now standing up. She pulled out her hand and was about to slap him, but he grabbed her hand and squeezed tightly which caused her to whimper out in pain.

"Sasori let her go." Itachi said as he walked towards them. He immediately let her go and sat down

"Look your girlfriend is acting all weird and if she wants to hurt me ill hurt her back she knows that." Sasori said as he continued playing cards. Sakura began to backup, as she did she ran into something hard and turned to see Itachi standing there. He instinctively put his arms around her waist and to his surprise she didn't pull away or yell but leaned back into his embrace.

"The Kazekage took away Sakura's memory, she doesn't remember any of us, so lay off of her, and if you ever hurt her again i will make sure you are in ten times as much pain as you caused her." Itachi said as he picked Sakura up once again and brought her to his room. Once they got there Sakura and Itachi began to talk.

"Thanks for um helping me out back there." Sakura said

"Yah no problem, so we should work on getting your memory back." Itachi said. Just then they heard a knock on the door. Itachi sighed.

" What do you want." Itachi yelled. Kisame then spoke threw the door

"Your supposed to report to the boss about the mission."

" Tell him i will talk to him tomorrow." Itachi said and then turned his attention back to Sakura

"so i guess i should tell you who i am and who everyone else is. Well I'm Itachi, the younger one that looks semi like me is my younger brother Sasuke. The blue one is Kisame, the one you had an encounter with was Sasori, and the one playing cards with him was Deidara. Were part of an organization called the Akatsuki." Itachi said

"Am i part of this group called the Akatsuki? And what is it we do?" Sakura asked

"Yes and we collect demons. Such as the Naruto the unconscious blond you saw earlier i was supposed to retrieve him, also the Kazekage is also a demon." Itachi replied

"So what is my relationship to you. Sasori called me your girlfriend

"Well you were my girlfriend before you lost your memory and you actually have two babies inside of you that are ours." Itachi replied

"oh wow so what now i don't remember anything but I'm sure i most have loved you a lot to have your kids in me." Sakura said

"Well i know you must feel uncomfortable around me and the others so i guess we just give it time and hopefully things will get back to the way it used to." Itachi said

"So why was my memory taken from me?" Sakura asked

" Well you were really sick and loosing a lot of blood so we had no choice but to ask the Kazekage to heal you but he not only healed you but took away your memory"

"So what was wrong with me?" Sakura asked

"I'm not sure we never really asked, you just cried out in pain and grabbed your chest then started coughing up blood." Itachi replied

"was i fighting or anything before that?" Sakura asked

" actually yeah you were you were fighting Neji Hyuuga he knocked your out conscious after blocking your chakra flow." Itachi said

" he probably just hit me a little harder than he meant to and punctured something inside of me." Sakura replied "So tell me about Konoha"

"Well you used to live there but you stayed with us because we knew you had potential, they always saw you as weak. You used to have a crush on my little brother and right now he has a crush on you, so he will probably try and use you having lost your memory to his advantage. But remember you used to love me before you lost your memory. I would hate to lose you to my little brother." Itachi said while Sakura giggled.

"Ok well i think i have gotten a lot of information tonight so i really need to think about everything its just all so much at once, and as for the Sasuke thing, i guess you will just have to charm me all over again if you don't want me to fall for your little brother" Sakura said. "so where am i going to sleep?"

"Well you usually slept in here with me since you know, but i understand if its still to weird." Itachi replied

"I don't mind sleeping in the same bed as you just please don't try anything yet because its like i never really knew your if you know what i mean." Sakura said. After she said this they went under the covers and were laying down Itachi's arm around her waist holding her close.

"So tell me more about my boyfriend." Sakura said in a sleepy voice

"Hm what else is there to tell I'm twenty five, i used to live in Konoha as well, my brother has tried to kill me numerous times. I don't really know what to tell you is there anything specific you wanted to know?" Itachi asked but got no answer. He then realized that she was asleep. "Good Night my little blossom." Itachi said before kissing her on the cheek and going to sleep. Tomorrow was probably going to be a difficult day for them both.
