A/N: okay here is the next chappie. Make sure you read the authors note at the bottom I really need your opinion on something.
Sakura was thinking about the girls when Sasuke walked into her room.
"You haven't come out all day." As usually a statement not a question.
"Is there a problem with that? As far as I'm informed I can stay here all day unless Orochimaru calls me for a mission or what not." Sakura spat back.
"Look I don't know what your problem is but…" Sasuke was about to apologize in his own Sasuke like way but was immediately cut off by a laughing Sakura.
"Ha Ha. You don't know what my problem is? Let's think about this shall we…" Sakura adopted a much harsher tone to finish off her speech. "You always push me away and never trust me and then you decide to leave me to go feed your power hungry ego and after I beg for you to stay and tell you how much I love you, you decide to have a one night fling with me out of pity. I get pregnant and have to raise two little girls all by myself. You finally decide to come back but this time instead of just leaving me with my two girls you had to add your own twist. This time you forced me to come with you. You actually don't know what my problem is? Man if I could go back in time I would stop myself from wasting my time obsessing over you and I defiantly would beg you stay with me and I would absolutely not…" Sakura's words were cut off. Sasuke had pinned her to the wall in an instant. He whispered in her ear.
"Would not what? You can't tell me you didn't like it. You wouldn't do it again?" Sasuke asked seductively. Sakura pumped chakra into her fist and pushed him all the way across the room.
"Get away from me, you sick twisted bastard." Sakura called taking a fighting stance.
"Sakura if you want to fight me fine that's your death wish but not here." Sakura barely had time to look confused. He had taken her by the arms and they both disappeared in a swirl of leaves.
Sakura found herself wrapped up in Sasuke's arms in the middle of a large field that was surrounded by trees.
"Now," Sasuke said pushing Sakura to the ground. "We can fight." He said. He threw three kunai at Sakura she quickly made hand signs and the kunai hit a log.
Sakura was watching from a nearby tree as Sasuke activated his Sharingan. She quickly masked her chakra. She knew he would probably still find her even with her chakra masked but at least she would have time to think of a plan.
Come on girl. Forget about the plan and just go kick his ass. Shannaro!
I can't do that I would lose…
You need more confidence. Mind if I take over?
Fine but only for a bit.
Sakura fell unconscious for only a second. But since she did fall unconscious her chakra was unmasked for that second and that was all Sasuke needed. He threw more kunai In her direction but inner Sakura took over and now it was time for a real fight.
Sakura jumped into the clearing and took on a fighting stance.
"Taijutsu? You have to be kidding me? There is no way you can win…" Sakura had already teleported behind Sasuke and threw a kick to his side.
This isn't Sakura. Her fighting style is different. She is attacking me head on. The Sakura I know wouldn't have the lack of brain cells to do something so…
"Shit." Sasuke had put a hand up to stop her leg but the kick was so powerful that it snapped his wrist. He flew back a few feet and quickly popped his wrist back into place.
"You aren't Sakura. Who are you?" Sasuke asked.
"What's the matter Sasuke Kun is it so hard to believe that I got stronger?" Sakura asked playfully pouting. Sakura threw her fist into the ground before he could reply. As a result he was sent flying into a tree. He stayed on the branch for a second to think but there was no way Sakura was going to let him do that. She was behind him already. She quickly kicked his side and this time he didn't block it. He went flying half down half to the side. Before he could hit the ground Sakura was below him giving him a knee in the gut. He choked up blood before flying into the air. Once again Sakura was waiting for him. She had her hands interlaced ready to hit his back.
"No!" Sasuke screamed turning his body in midair, throwing his foot up so that his entire body flipped on top of Sakura's but not before kicking her back down to the clearing.
Sakura hit the ground so hard a relatively large crater formed around her body. She had blood dripping from the side of her mouth as she stood. She jumped back into the trees when she noticed kunai coming for her. Sasuke smirked when he saw her retreat.
"Now that's the Sakura I know. So why don't you tell me what's going on." Sakura was panting on a branch when he teleported behind her and whispered in her ear.
"Sa-ku-ra." The name coming from his lips sounded as if it were made just for him to say. Sakura just gasped in surprised as Sasuke wrapped his arms around her waist and put his chin on her shoulder. She relaxed only a little in his strong arms and that was all he needed. He quickly turned both of their bodies around and slammed her into the trunk of the tree. He turned her so she was now facing him. One of his hands held her two wrists above her head his other held her waist.
"What happened?" Two simple words.
You finally get a question out of that bastard and it's only two words. Let me out again so I can…
No I should tell him and besides if I let you out again it could possibly kill this body.
"I…I…I have two souls in my body." Sakura said emotionlessly. She gave him a blank stare which enraged the Uchiha. He pushed her harder against the tree to make her explain more.
"Most people are born with a body and a soul. Bodies have an expiration date but a soul lives as long as it has a body to shelter in. That is how Orochimaru's jutsu works. He lost his body a long time ago but moves his soul onto new bodies so it never dies." Sakura explained.
"What does Orochimaru have to do with any of this?" Sasuke asked.
"If he finds out about this he will kill me. That's what he has to do with this." Sakura spat.
"About what? Tell me what's going on." Sasuke demanded. Sakura once more adopted her emotionless mask and began to explain.
"When I was born I was born with two spirits: Mine and Hana's. Hana is the spirit who watches over the Haruno clan. Every thousand years she finds a girl who belongs to the Haruno clan and goes into her body. If she doesn't find a body then she dies. Unfortunately when she does find a body she can only come out every so often or else the body will die. If the body dies I die. Hana, however, is very powerful so she is of great use when I need extra strength in battle especially when I let my emotions get the better of me, like just now." Sakura finished looking down.
"You're still weak. You need someone else to fight for you." Sasuke said.
"I…I…" Sakura was stunned she didn't know what to say so she just let everything spill out. She would soon regret it.
"I have only used her twice. The only time I use her is when I have to fight you. You weaken me. Being around you makes me weak. I wish I never would have met you. I got stronger when you left and weaker now that you're back. That's why she takes over when I am around you." Sakura cried out.
"You said you used her twice. I only fought her once." Sasuke said looking at Sakura for some kind of reaction. Then he saw it. It looked like betrayal.
"I used her one other time. I was fighting someone who was talking about you. I was fighting Itachi. He used his Mangekyou Sharingan to make me relieve when you left and then make it look like you were killing Akina and Kohano. Hana came out of my body completely to fight Itachi. My body almost died when she didn't come back for over two hours. When she finally came back I regained consciousness and the first thing I saw was…Itachi…dead." Sakura looked away when she finished. Sasuke let her go. He didn't know what to feel. He hated her for not letting him kill Itachi. He was happy Itachi hadn't been the one to kill her. He was relieved his brother was finally dead. He realized he could have beaten his brother if he stayed in Konoha. He just looked at Sakura blankly.
"I hate it when you look at me like that. That's exactly how he looked at me before I fell unconscious and that is the same look that Akina has all the time. That blank stare as if you aren't even human." Sasuke just pulled Sakura close to him. He didn't know what to do so he just let his body react. She sobbed on his shoulder while he rested his chin on hers. And they stayed like that for what seemed like an eternity before Sasuke finally broke the silence.
"Sakura…I don't know how I feel. I don't know what to say." Sasuke said looking down at her.
"Just tell me that you love me. Tell me I won't ever be alone again." Sakura looked up at him with pleading eyes.
"Sakura…I…love you." Sasuke almost whispered it but it didn't matter Sakura still heard and she responded. He bent his head down and she stood on tippy toes and their lips met. He licked her bottom lip and asked for entrance which he was granted and they kissed. A loving comforting chaste kiss.
A/N: Hey guys I don't know what my next chapter will be about exactly but I do need to know if you guys want me to do a complete time skip. They don't go after Orochimaru for another three or four years so do you want me to skip to that or just make up random chapters about their time In the sound lair. Your choice. RANDR. ;p
