Two Hearts As One
Author's note; Readers make sure that you read everything clearly because this chapter contains a lot of important information.
Neji woke up, feeling something heavy on his chest he remember last night how he and Sakura made passionate love. He looked at the sleeping figure; her skin looked so soft which it was he had learned that last night, her hair was out of the ponytail and it rest on her naked shoulders. She smelled of strawberries and sweets and he loved it. How could someone so innocent and caring fall for a person like him someone who is cold and only cares about power? But, she was changing that if it wasn't for Sakura than he wouldn't feel complete. He watched her stir in her sleep and he decided that it was about time she wakes up. Neji leaned forward and gave her a peck on the lips her eyes slowly open and she smiled.
"Good morning" she said
"Right back at you"
"You slept okay, was the bed cozy" she said
"You were there so…I guess it was" Sakura blushed and turn to look at the clock it read 8:00. She had to train with Kurenai and work on using her new bloodline Xyoukugan to the fullest. But, she was afraid to because she hated the way she felt when she use it.
"What's wrong?"
"I have training today" spoke Sakura she seemed down about it.
"So you not happy…are you…afraid" he teased. Sakura buried her face in his chest and nodded yes.
"Why"
"Because I hate the way I feel using it. It's like I feel all the pain in the world and believe all that pain could kill a person" she said Neji wrap his arms around her and pulled her close.
"That's why you train so that stuff like pain won' hurt you. Sakura you are going to feel pain in any battle that's when it's good to practice feeling pain that way the time comes you will not let pain get in your way. Trust me I know so get up and I'll walk you to training grounds "
" find, I will go only because I don' really have a choice " and with that she grab the sheet that was covering her and got up but, not before Neji pulled her down and kiss her again.
"You going to make me late" she said in between kisses.
"Sorry, but, I can't help myself "he said sitting up. She ran to the shower and he laughed at her actions and looked at the time.
"Oh man! I have to meet Gai sensei" he said running in the shower only to have Sakura yell at him. He laughed and said "we only have time for one shower"
Sakura was getting dress while Neji got dress in the bathroom. She put on her boots and brushed her hair while Neji came out turning to her; Sakura looked at him and blushed. And he smirked. No words were spoken they grab something to eat and left the room. To show the village that their was a new couple in town.
Kurnai stared at Sakura like she was going to chop her head off, probably because she was light and the fact that she brought Neji with her and Kiss him goodbye. There was silence that filled the air; they both stared at one another.
"I was only a few minutes late "
" Neji "
"I…I…I ummmm"
"Sakura I only want your focus to be training not a boy "
"My main focus is training and that's the truth. Besides I like having Neji around he helps me both mind and body" She blushed and Kurenai threw a kunai at her. Sakura nearly dodged it she hit the floor hard.
"I am training you so hard so that you could show off your power Sakura, your bloodline is the most deadly and if you don' use it the correct way you could die in battle "
"I know okay but, everything all this is all new to me and maybe I just wish everything will go back to normal me being known as the weakest ninja, and not feeling "she said. Kurenai grab her arm and lead her up a hill, through the trees and back down the hill until they came across a grave stone under a gorgeous tree. Sakura eyes widen as she moved closer to the stone and fell on her knees.
"This is when things started to change for you isn't it Sakura? When your life had meaning even if you didn't want it too! Sakura this is just another step in life for you to become who you want to be. Stop living in the past "Sakura had tears in her eyes it was the young boy she had killed thinking that he was going to kill Naruto in the fogged, when they were returning from a mission. Ever since that day her life has been changing slowly and it took her to this point in her life to realize it. Her hand touch the grave and she stood up and turned to Kurenai. "I'm ready "
Neji was at Tsundade office along with the rest of his teammates sitting down and talking about the new mission that they were leaving for the next night.
"Traveling to the Mist is dangerous because there are a lot of paths you must take, and the missing ninjas are out there and I do not know how much are out there so you can't risk being seen." spoke Tsundade.
"The Family "said Tenten
"Oh yes, let's start with the family, There are three members and they are royal and want
To move to the Mist Village because they are resigning from duty" Spoke Tsundade
Reading from a piece of paper.
" There names the father- Hiroshi Osamu, the daughter- Youuko Osamu, and the son-
Daiki Osamu, and they come from the Rain village."
"Three…do you know why they will just pick up and leave their village" ask Neji
"No but, things just happen for a reason you know you can't make stuff not happen so
When the family do come and meet you guys don't ask personnel questions even if it is
In the rules got it" she said. They all nodded yes.
"Okay this is an A rank mission, so pack only a bag each you should pack only
Important stuff not loads of weapons or pictures of yourself "she looked at Tenten and
Lee, who just turn away? Neji smirked.
"Tomorrow night at ten you will meet at the gates of Kohona and the Osamu's will be
There and eat a good dinner because you guys are traveling all night."
"All night WHY! " Cried Lee. As Tenten slapped him in the head.
"Because these Missing Ninjas they are most weak at night so I don't think they will be
Attacking you then "she said.
"Sounds good" said Neji
"Neji it's a dangerous mission there is no good in it. This could be your last mission so
Be careful alright I can't risk losing any of you guys, girls! "
Sakura's breathing was heavy, her body was already tried but she had to learn to
Live with it in order to fight well in battle. Kurenai stared at Sakura they have been going
On for ten minutes straight, she had to get Sakura mad in order to summon her bloodline
Since she doesn't know how to and the only way to do that will be to get even with her
For being late.
"So why were you late or was you doing something you wasn't suppose to"
Sakura looked at her with a questioning look. "It's not any of her business what I do and,
Why will she bring this up" she thought.
"You actually think Neji cares about you the only thing that he cares about will be
Power that's it nothing more…face it your just a one night stand "Kurenai said with no
Emotion, she didn't like it but it was the only way.
Sakura eyes widen she was mad now she could feel thoughts popping into her head and
Her heart rate begins to speed up.
"You know Sakura if it wasn't for your bloodline than…you still will be known as the
Weakest ninja in this village…..matter of fact in all villages" she spat.
Sakura looked up at her, wind began to blow around her, and lines formed around her
Pupil. The water began to take form.
"You just made a really bad mistake "said Sakura disappearing. Kurenai eyes widen
Sakura had to focus or she could really hurt someone or perhaps kill them.
"SAKURA NO!" yelled Kurenai, stopping Sakura's hands so she won't hit her. Her
Chakra level was way too high and she was struggling to stop Sakura's hit aim for her
Face.
"Listen to me you don't want to do this. Sakura control your self….before you hurt
Another innocent" spoke Kurenai. Sakura looked at her and began to calm down.
"Sorry"
"It's okay your bloodline is not easy to control, now fight me no mercy "
"You got it"
Kurenai disappear, and reappear in front of Sakura kicking her hard, Sakura wipe the
Blood from her mouth and her and Kurenai began to fight. That's when more opponents
Step out and all began to fight Sakura testing her fighting skills. Kakashi, Gai, and irukra
Sensei all began to try and hit her but Sakura kept blocking their hits. It was a battle that
Just had to be watch. Gai caught her off guard and manage to throw her into a tree.
Sakura looked really mad as more wind began to blow and the dragon stared to take
Form.
"You know what I like about my pet…" she said smirking
"It does what I say "she added.
The dragon let out a huge roar and charged at the adults drowning them in its water
Circling their small useless bodies she laughed as she calls him back. (The dragon is a
Boy dragon).
"Not done "she tease running at them kicking each of them in the face or gut blocking
Their attacks leaves began to blow hard blinding them from seeing anything.
"Dust in your eyes "she said they looked at her she looked Stronger than before and
More deadly like she was out for a kill for anyone no matter that it was. The dragon
Charged at them this time she let his water body stay on theirs really drowning them so
That they could lose air. "She can't control her power "Thought kurenai struggling not to
Loose air.
Sakura stood gasping for air, five minutes have pass and it seem like forever that she was
Using that attack. She was feeling strange her body felt lack of Chakra her muscles were
Stiff and sore. She let out a sharp cry and than everything went black. The dragon faded
Into water and the hold on the others was release.
Neji passed the forest hearing people panic and hearing them talk about a girl who
Was training and the next thing he heard was dragon, fainted and not waking up? He ran
Inside the forest even though he never shouldn't have. There he saw the teachers over a
Girl who was fixed on the ground and looked like she was sleeping. He than relax and
Came to realize that she probably use her bloodline limit and passed out because of the
Lack of power running though her body. He walked over to everyone.
"Is she okay "he asked?
"Yes, she's find she just passed out but, she'll be waking up any moment" said Kurenai
They looked at Neji "why you are here "asks Kakashi Sensei. Neji eyes widen he forgot
That no one knew about him and Sakura only Kurenai and Tenten. "Because that's he's
Girlfriend "said Kurenai. They all looked at him. He knew people will find out but, he never expected them to remain in shock what was so wrong.
"That's good she found someone to be with "
"It is "
"It is "said Sakura waking up
"Yeah now you could borrow my copy of itch itch paradise" Said Kakashi, Sakura fell back onto the ground they looked at her.
"What "he said
"Poor Sakura she had to go through that for years "said Gai.
Neji looked at her and moved hair from her face. "I'm going to go now it seems you're all busy so I just catch up with Sakura later "he said kissing her cheek and disappearing. " How…cute "they all said.
Sakura watched as the group of adults began to leave, leaving her with Kurenai who kept on smiling at her. Sakura looked at the women and tried to smile but couldn't she felt stupid and crazy.
"What? Why are you staring at me? "She asked with curiosity. Kurenai eye grew wider and her smiled grew to.
"You did it! Sakura you use the fullest limit of your bloodline and took on four very strong opponents which is something that I can't even do you should feel very proud"
Sakura looked at her and smile but, it was fake.
"But your not '
"No...I am "she said
"But, "
"But, it's just I feel like this bloodline doesn't run in my family like a part of it doesn't belong inside of me and yet it does "
"Sakura every action has a reason remember that…..yours is just delayed "she said. Sakura looked at her perhaps Kurenai was right her reason for this new power that was running through her veins was delayed and she just had to wait till she found out the true reason she could control the flow of nature and use it to form an amazing dragon.
Neji came from his house changing his clothes and taking a shower he changed into a pair baggy jeans and black short self's shirt. He walked through the streets of town looking at stores and kids playing in the grass playing tag or just running around enjoying what life brings and letting no one stop them. He stopped and looked at a girl play with them running after them and spinning around with them. He smiled at Sakura actions and the fact that she had such a kind heart and is caring person who many people like. He felt a chakra wave and realize who it was.
"If you hurt her or break her heart I'll kill you "they said
Neji didn't turn his head because he already knew who it was, Saskue. They both kept their eyes on apart and on Sakura watching her like obsess perverts.
"I'm not planning on. Why do you care? "
"Because she's someone special to me and She's also my teammate and I will do anything to protect her even if it means staying away from her…besides she will always be in danger if she's with me ...So don't break her heart. " He said before disappearing and thinking that he said too much. Neji stood there thinking about Saskue's words and looking at his cherry blossom.
