"Wait so you mean to tell me that we're going to have little pink haired psycho demons running around tearing up the place and causing all kinds of mayhem?" Kisame asked. Sakura and Itachi had just spilled the beans to him Deidara and Sasori.

"Oh come on Kisame, they won't be all over the house, just your room." Itachi said with a smirk as he leaned against the kitchen counter. Deidara and Sasori snickered while Kisame sulked.

"Oh, Deidara, Sasori, we want you two to decorate the baby's room, it's going to be in my old room." Sakura said looking over at the two art masters.

"We'd love to Sakura Chan." Deidara said with a smile.

"Yeah so long as blonde over here doesn't screw it up."

"Danna!" Deidara whined. Sakura just smiled and walked over to the door.

"Well I have to go into town for a few things; I'll be back in an hour or so." She said with a smiled and walked out the door. Sakura walked into town and pulled the hood on her cloak up to cover her face. She walked down to the clothing store where she had an order of clothes waiting. She was only a month along, but already her clothes were becoming small. She figured she would get her shape back after the baby so all she ordered were dresses she could grow into as the pregnancy went on. She had her bag of clothes and was on her way back home when she felt four familiar chakras come up and slowly stalk her through the crowded streets. Sakura only smirked and kept walking. The four followed her until the town was out of sight.

"Sakura!" one called out. Sakura stopped in her tracks but didn't turn around.

"Ino, it's been so long, how have you been?" Sakura asked. She didn't turn around, she couldn't, she knew she couldn't.

"Sakura, come back with us." Naruto pleaded.

"Sorry Naruto, I can't do that." Sakura said shaking her head. She took a deep breath, she could look at them, but it would have to be quick, very quick.

"Sakura, please!" this came from Sasuke.

"And why would you want me back Sasuke? You hated me, remember?"

"Sakura, what have the Akatsuki done to you?"

"Ah, Kakashi, I was wondering when you were going to speak." Slowly Sakura turned around and looked at them. "I'm sorry, I truly am, but I can't come back with you."

"Sakura, you're. . ." Ino trailed off and Kakashi's eyes went wide.

"Yeah, I am Ino." Sakura said with a smile touching her belly.

"Sakura, who did this to you?" Kakashi asked. Poor Naruto still didn't know what was going on.

"Itachi, and it was my choice as much as his. I wanted this." She said, she gave a small smile when she saw how deep her words cut.

"Sakura, how could you?" Sasuke asked.

"Oh please Sasuke, like you have room to talk, look at what you did." She spat. "Look, I'm never going back to Konoha, and I'm never going to apologize for what I've done. I've escaped hell, and found my heaven." And with those final words Sakura's clone disappeared, leaving the Konoha nin shocked in the woods.

"What do we do now?" Ino asked.

"We go back to Konoha and pronounce Sakura Haruno dead." Naruto said. His fists were clenched and there was a single tear sliding down his face.

Time Skip . . .

"Deidara, get some more towels, Kisame where's that water?" Itachi called as he paced the door in front of the room where Sakura was. They couldn't risk taking her to a hospital, so Konan came down to help. Deidara and Kisame showed up and took the things inside before joining Itachi out side. Sakura's screams could be heard through the drywall and plaster, and each of the men gave an involuntary wince.

"I will never call women weak ever again." Kisame said with a shudder. Deidara and Itachi only nodded in agreement.

Soon all the screaming stopped and Konan came to the door. "Itachi, you can come in now." She said with a smile. Itachi nodded and walked in the room. Sakura was laying on a bed the end covered in blood, and a small pink bundle in her arms. "Congratulations Itachi, it's a baby girl." She said before disappearing.

Itachi slowly walked up to Sakura and smiled at her as she tilted the small bundle up. "Suchi, that's what we decided on right?" Sakura asked. Itachi nodded and brushed his knuckles over the small baby's head.

"She's so small." He said in amazement.

"Do you want to hold her?" Sakura asked. Itachi nodded and carefully took his baby girl from Sakura. He cradled her in his arms and smiled as she looked up at him and smiled. "She likes you." Sakura said with a smile.

Itachi just looked down at his baby, and made a silent promise to keep both of these girls safe from any and all harm.
