Sakura walked past Konoha's gates, she was officially in danger now…

She looked up at the sky as if signaling it to protect her and help her in this mission. She had a bad feeling about this one.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

-"Sasuke-sama?"

-"Hn?"

-"Isn't that the pink-haired kunoichi you always talk about?" A man with glasses and silver hair asked.

-"Why are you asking that Kabuto when you know Sakura perfectly well." Sasuke groaned. He looked towards where Kabuto's eyes were staring at.

His eyes slightly widened. THAT was Sakura? HIS Sakura? She looked…hot? Amazing? Beautiful?

He hadn't seen her in years, 9 or 10 years…he wasn't sure.

-"Sasuke-sama?" Kabuto interrupted. His gaze on the kunoichi stopped and he looked at him.

-"What?" slightly irritated that Kabuto had made him lose sight of the kunoichi and his wondering thoughts.

-"If you had THAT," he said pointing at Sakura's retreating back, "Why did you pick Orochimaru-sama? Are you gay?" This earned Kabuto a hit on the head making him fall off the tree that he and Sasuke were in and hit his face straight on the ground.

-"No." he said venomously. "If there is a gay ass around here it would be you, baka (idiot)." Sasuke stated while glaring at Kabuto.

Kabuto jumped up from the floor and glared back at Sasuke.

-"WHAT!" he screamed at the sharingan user.

Sasuke smirked at this and stopped his glare on Kabuto. His favorite pass time was getting the medic-nin pissed off.

-"Don't act dumb, I see how you eye Orochimaru when he's not looking." Sasuke stated showing his grand, awesome and powerful 'Uchiha Smirk' at Kabuto (A/N: Did I mention AWESOME! KAWAII! SASUKE-KUN!...sorry…anyway on with the story).

-"THAT'S IT SASUKE! I'M GOING TO KILL YOU." Kabuto screamed as he lunged toward the branch Sasuke was on. Before he could get there though, Orochimaru appeared in front of the two and glared at Kabuto. Kabuto's eyes widened and slowly hid his face in shame of what the snake sannin had seen. He never acted this way in front of HIM! "Gomen Orochimaru-sama, I…"

-"Save it. Both of you are supposed to be on a mission, but instead, you decide to eye that kunoichi." Orochimaru hissed.

Sasuke's eyes widened. How did he know that? He must've been watching them! Just great…

-"Sasuke-kun?" Sasuke shot his head up at his sensei.

-"Hn?"

-"If you want that girl so badly, you should've let her come with you when she pleaded that night." He stated.

Sasuke's eyes widened even more.

-"How did you know about that?"

-"I have my resources Sasuke-kun. Now both of you came to do my bidding and not to do stupidities. If you want to fuck the girl, then do so and get it over with." Orochimaru snarled.

-"Hai, Orochimaru-sama." Both Sasuke and Kabuto said as the snake sannin disappeared in a poof of smoke.

They sighed in relief; Orochimaru always knew how to tense up a situation.

-"Let's go." Stated Kabuto, pushing his glasses up with his index finger.

Sasuke nodded and they sprinted off, but Sasuke looked at where Sakura was before he left. He had to admit that he really missed her…

He would sometimes go to Konoha and watch her fight and train with the Hokage and Shizune. She has grown, but he stopped looking after her when Orochimaru almost found out about it. Since then he hadn't seen the kunoichi, but it seems that all this time, she has grown even stronger.

He smirked, while running from branch to branch. Hopefully, Sakura was still HIS. (A/N: Three cheers for Sasuke's possessiveness! WHEEEEEEE!)

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

A few days had passed and still no sight of the oldest Uchiha. She tried in every place there was during the roads she had traveled along and still, no one had seen him.

There was one man that claimed that he had seen him, but it was a lie, just to try and get the kunoichi's attention. 'Perverts' she thought as she walked into a small inn near the border of the fire country.

-"I would like a room please." Sakura said as she flashed a smile at the woman that was behind the counter. The woman smiled back and gave her a key while Sakura paid the money for one night and left towards her room.

The inn was ugly and it looked really old, but she didn't care as long as she could sleep in a bed.

She had been sleeping out in the wilderness for too long and she wanted a nice and comfy bed where she could wrap around the sheets.

She opened the door that had the number 59 on it and closed it once she was inside. Sakura looked around the rooms. It had a bedroom and bathroom. This would have to do.

The kunoichi sat on the bed as she started to take off her shoes. Sakura felt a strong chakra behind her and whirled around to punch the person when she came across the person she had been searching for.

-"U-U-Uchiha Itachi?" she blurted out, while he held her hand, not letting go of it for not even a second.

-"Aa." He replied, when both of them heard a cry.

Sakura turned her face from Itachi to the 'thing' under his other arm. It was…a CHILD!

Sakura's eyes widened as Itachi let go of her hand. She quickly got up from the bed and took a few steps back.

Before Sakura could voice out her thoughts, he spoke.

-"Haruno Sakura, his name is Uchiha Ryu. He's my son, his mother died giving birth. If I don't find a woman that will take care of him, I'll have to kill him."

Sakura's eyes widened at the last part. Itachi would kill his own son!

Itachi sighed as he sat down on the bed. He was kneeling on it before and it was quite uncomfortable. Of course he wouldn't kill his own child! He had to say that so she would take care of him.

After a few seconds of silence…

-"You wish to kill me, but if you do, this child will have no one in this world."

Sakura nodded as she sat down on the floor, her eyes still with shock and amazement at what this man said a few minutes ago.

-"Why are you telling me this?" she asked looking at the child in Itachi's arms.

-"I've decided that you will raise my child." Sakura's eyes widened even more. They were almost bulging out of her sockets.

-"WHAT!" she screamed as she got up from the floor.

The baby didn't take the scream nicely, so he started crying.

-"Shit!" Itachi cursed as he put the child on the bed. "You had to wake him up, didn't you? Pft…you're annoying."

Sakura went towards the child, but stopped when Itachi had said that sentence. 'Annoying….Sasuke-kun…' she thought as she again approached the child. She brought him up and looked at Ryu, while rocking him back and forth in her arms.

The boy was handsome and had the clear Uchiha traits. He had black hair and the same onyx eyes as Itachi and…Sasuke. If she had seen Sasuke as a child, she could have sworn that he would probably have looked exactly like Ryu.

What would he think of her if she abandoned an Uchiha in need of her care? If she let Itachi kill another Uchiha? Would he forgive her? Of course not.

She had no choice…

She started singing a lullaby, while Itachi stared at her, cradling his 'thing'. He smirked. His plan had worked…

The baby stopped crying and looked up into a pool of emerald eyes and giggled. A few strands of Sakura's hair fell down on his face as one passed his nose and made him sneeze.

Sakura smiled. She had to admit that the child was the most adorable baby she had ever seen…and she had seen a lot thanks to her being a medic-nin.

Itachi still stared until his sharingan eyes locked with emerald ones.

-"Why did you pick me to take care of your child?" Itachi smirked.

-"Because I felt like it." He stated. Sakura nodded, not wanting to argue. She quickly put Ryu back on the bed and started singing to him again so he could sleep.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

Finally, Ryu fell asleep and Sakura looked up at Itachi. He was still standing and was in the same position as before.

-"What am I supposed to do now?" She asked as she sighed. Her world had turned upside down in a few seconds…great…

-"You will become a missing-nin and join the Akatsuki." He said as if it were the simplest thing in the world.

-"It's not that easy saying goodbye…" Itachi cut her off.

-"You won't have to. Don't go back and come with the 'thing' and I to Akatsuki base." He said as he also sat down on the bed. Sakura tried to ignore the 'thing' comment.

-"I guess you're right." Sakura said as she cast her eyes down at the ground.

He looked at her and sighed.

-"Why did you decide to help me?" he asked. She quickly looked up at him and smirked. It was her turn to play around with him.

-"Because I felt like it." She stated as she lay down on the bed and wrapped her arms around Ryu. She pointed at something with one of her hands. "You can sleep on the couch." She put her arm back where she had it before and went to sleep.

Itachi looked at the couch skeptically and sighed. He got up from the bed and took one of the bed's pillows and sat on the uncomfortable couch.

A few minutes later, they fell asleep.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

I don't know why I picked the name Ryu, I just did…it popped into my head for some reason…oh well.

Review please! Thank you!

Love you guys!
