Hey people, this is Yami back with another installment of Salvation. Enjoy the reading, and see you in the outro! XD
"Where….am I, "Sakura said in a raspy voice
Opening her eyes, Sakura immediately noticed that she was in a home, a wooden cottage to be exact. Looking down, she saw that her clothes had been changed; she was wearing a white dress with black flower petals embroidered on it.
"Who does this belong to, "she fingered the clothing
The door creaked making her jump. Nervous since she didn't have any weapons, Sakura readied herself for a fight.
"Who's there, "she asked harshly
Poking their head in the door, Sakura was greeted by a little girl with a curious look on her.
"Um, who are you, "she asked not letting down her guard
The little girl blushed and tried to hide herself behind the door, "I'm Mikasa"
"Well, Mikasa, do you know how I got here, "she asked with a smile coming onto her face
"My daddy brought you here, and my mommy changed your clothes, "she said shyly
Sakura smiled at her. She was such an innocent thing. She wondered what village she was in; how far away had she been sent from the elemental nations?
"Um, Mikasa, can you tell your parents to come here, "she asked kindly
"Um, okay, "Misaka said and ran off
Taking this time alone to diagnose herself, Sakura noticed that she had already been treated, wounds and burns wrapped up. Using her healing chakra, she managed to take care of the major wounds, leaving the minor ones to heal on their own.
"Excuse me, "she heard a light voice
"Y-yes, "Sakura blushed in embarrassment and fear of getting caught checking herself out
In front of her was a beautiful woman. She looked Asian oriented just like her daughter.
"Are you feeling alright; if not, I could get my husband to go find Dr. Yeager, "she asked
"No, no, I'm fine; just….where am I, "Sakura asked
"In the outermost wall, Maria, in Shiganshina District, "she smiled
"Shi-gan-shi-na District, "Sakura pronounced it
'Where the hell am I, 'Sakura freaked inwardly
'What is going on, there is no Shiganshina, no walls, in the elemental nations; where did that bastard Uchiha send me, 'she wondered
"Oh my, you must have head trauma, "the woman gasped, "We'll have to get Dr. Yeager immediately"
'Head trauma, is she serious; well, I might as well stick with it for the time being, 'Sakura decided
"Honey, go get Dr. Yeager, "the woman screamed down the hall
"Yes dear, "Sakura could her a man
"I'll make you something to eat, "the woman smiled, "What would you like"
"Mmmm….Miso Soup, "Sakura mumbled
"Okay, coming right up; please, make yourself at home, "she smiled, "Oh, and don't mind my daughter; she just loves meeting new people"
Sakura smiled, "It's alright; I adore children"
The woman left the room, leaving Sakura to herself for a little while. She thought about the situation she was in, and what she needed to do to get out of it.
'I don't know how I got here, but I know I have to find a way to get out, 'she thought
"Um, are you okay, "she heard a soft voice
Looking down, Sakura saw Mikasa staring at her.
"Un (Yeah), "Sakura smiled at her
"Ah, you speak Japanese, "Mikasa said astonished, "Mommy said not many people can speak it"
"Ah, well, I learned it when I was a child, "Sakura said
"Did your mommy teach you, "she asked
"Yeah, you want to know more, "Sakura questioned
"Un, un, "Mikasa smiled happily
Climbing into the bed, Sakura started telling Mikasa tales of her time in the Leaf Village, leaving out the death and other horrific parts. In a short time, Mikasa had fell in love with her and was calling her Onee-san (Big Sister).
"Uzumaki-san sounds like a baka (Idiot), "Mikasa giggled
Sakura smiled warmly at her, "He is, but he has a kind heart."
"Mikasa, I hope you aren't annoying our guest, "Mikasa's mother came in the door with her food
"No, I wasn't annoying Onee-san, promise, "she pouted looking at Sakura for confirmation
"It's alright; Mikasa wasn't bothering me at all; she's great company, "Sakura said as she took the soup from her
"Okay then, Dr. Yeager shouldn't be too far now; he'll give you another checkup and you'll be good as new, "she smiled
"He's looked at me before, "Sakura asked while secretly checking the soup for poison with her chakra
"Yes, he's the one who treated you when my husband brought you here, "she trailed off, "What happened to you dear"
Silently having a heart attack, Sakura made up a quick lie.
"Um, well, I had a friend who wanted to be more than friends, but I told him that I wasn't ready for a relationship, and he got angry. He beat me pretty bad and set me on fire, but I don't remember what happened after that, "she lied while taking a sip of soup
"Oh my, you poor thing; he must be a part of the military, neh; my husband said you fell out of the sky, "she said horrified at what Sakura just said
"Yes, he is, "she said
"Guh, the military thinking that they can do whatever they want; god was on your side when my husband found you, "she smiled sadly
"Thank you for helping me, "Sakura said as she finished eating, "The soup was delicious, thank you"
"You're welcome, "she smiled
"Honey, I brought Dr. Yeager, "a familiar voice rang out
"Finally, "Mikasa's mother smiled, "Don't be afraid of him; he's a nice man, "she told Sakura, "He gives Mikasa checkups all the time"
"A-alright, "she said
"Come on, Mikasa; let's make lunch for our guest, "she said towards her daughter
"Okay, bye Onee-san, "she hugged Sakura
"Bye Mikasa, "she hugged the girl back
"So what seems to be the problem, "dad asked Mr. Ackerman
"You'll have to ask my wife; she's the one who told me to come get you, "he said
"Well, what's happening; is something wrong with her bandages, "he asked Mrs. Ackerman when she came downstairs
"I believe the dear has brain damage, "she said
"Did she tell you what happened to her, "Dad asked
"She told me that she had a friend in the military police that wanted to be more than a friends, but she turned him down. After that, he beat her, burned her, and deposited her in the woods, "Mrs. Ackerman said
"The military always stepping out of line; I'll make sure that there is no permanent damage; Eren you stay here, "he told me
"Okay dad, "I responded
Mikasa sat silently at the table with Eren while her parents conversed about her Onee-san.
"The poor dear; I wonder if her family is looking for her, "Mrs. Ackerman said
"I don't know if she has any family dear, "Mr. Ackerman said
"How so, "she asked
"Well, I don't think anyone in Shiganshina District has pink hair, or a hair color close to it, "he said, "For all we know, the girl might be an orphan"
"I never thought of that, "Mrs. Ackerman gasped
"I don't think that it's a good idea for her to go back to where ever she lives if that man is still prowling around; if he sees her alive, I don't want to think about what he'd do to her, "Mrs. Ackerman said
"I agree, but it's her decision if she wants to stay here, not ours, "Mr. Ackerman sighed
"Yeah, but Mikasa loves her already; I'm sure she doesn't want her to leave, "Mrs. Ackerman smiled at her daughter who blushed
"She's a stranger honey, but I do want to help her, "Mr. Ackerman laughed
"Now, Miss Sakura, please lay back and relax, "Dr. Yeager told her
Seeing as she was a doctor, Sakura already knew that nothing was wrong with her. However, since Dr. Yeager didn't know that, she could just fake it and pretend that she had amnesia or something if shit was gonna hit the fan.
(Don't know how someone in their time would diagnose someone with brain damage or head trauma, so let's just say he checked her head and concluded that it was just a concussion.)
"I'm sure that she will be fine, "Grisha told Mr. and Mrs. Ackerman, "she just needs rest"
"Thank you doctor, "Mr. Ackerman smiled
"Well, it's time that we head back; come along Eren, "he looked at the boy
"Coming dad, "Eren said while glancing at the window of Sakura's room
Running to catch up with his father, Eren could help but pout. He wanted to meet the person who was staying at the Ackerman's house. I mean, it's not every day who meet someone who "fell out of the sky".
"Don't be sad, Eren; I'm sure that you'll get to meet Miss Sakura one day, "he looked back at his son who was unusually quiet.
"But what if she leaves, "Eren pouted, "Then I'll never meet her"
"Trust me, I'm sure that you'll meet her in due time, "Grisha grinned, "Now, let's get back home; your mother will throw a fit if she knew that I brought you with me just so I could treat a stranger"
"Okay"
"Are you sure that you're okay, "Mrs. Ackerman asked Sakura with a wiry expression
"Yes, I'm fine, "Sakura smiled, "I don't think that I can repay you"
"Oh, it's fine, "Mrs. Ackerman smiled, "So, um, are you….going back home"
"I don't know, "Sakura sighed, "I live alone, so I doubt anyone would notice I was gone"
"Is that so, "Mrs. Ackerman sighed
"But, I can't stay here, "Sakura inquired, "I mean, I'm a stranger, and you have a child here"
"Oh, come on, "Mrs. Ackerman pleaded, "Mikasa loves you, and my husband and I don't mind you staying here"
"But.., "Sakura tried to find a counter-attack
"No buts, you're living with us from now on, "Mrs. Ackerman made the decision for her
Sakura sweat-dropped; was this woman just forcing her to live with them?
"Yay, another Ackerman, "Mrs. Ackerman cheered
Sakura smiled, as the woman pranced around the room excited at the fact that she had another daughter.
'I really don't have a say in this, do I, "Sakura said inwardly, "Well, it's better than living in the woods.
"From now on, everyone will call you Sakura Ackerman; Mikasa, can you come here for a second, "Mrs. Ackerman called
'Sakura Ackerman,…..I like it"
"Sakura, "Hinata screamed as she watched her friend be swallowed by the white chakra
Gritting her teeth. Hinata charged at Madara full forced, aiming for his vital organs.
"Ah, another annoying kunoichi, "Madara smirked and punched her in the stomach
"Hinata, "Kiba screamed, "You bastard"
"Little Leaf shinobi brats; you don't yet understand the world you live in; it's a cruel place, "Madara frowned
"Shut up, "Ino shouted at him, "What did you do to Sakura"
"I got her out of my hair is all, "Madara grinned widely
"Chidori"!
Jumping into the air, Madara narrowly missed the lightening covered hand that would've went right through him.
"Ah, you're still alive, "he said to Sasuke
"Son of a bitch, "he growled, "I'm going to kill you"
All of Sasuke's wounds were healed. Looking out of the corner of his eye, Madara noticed a streak of red hair running behind a boulder.
"Haven't we already seen the outcome of this battle, "Madara said, "You're too weak to defeat me"
"Maybe not by myself, but….Naruto, how long are you planning on just laying around, "Sasuke looked at his fallen ex-teammate, "You did just see…didn't you"
"I did, "Naruto coughed out and pushed away Tsunade's healing hands, "I'm….I"m going to rip you a part….you Uchiha bastard"
"Hmm, the Kyuubi has some strength left, huh, "Madara said
"Just like old times, "Sasuke said when Naruto got up to stand beside him
"Yeah, "Naruto grinned, "Just like old times"
"I'll end you just like I ended that kunoichi, "Madara leered
Sasuke and Naruto flinched before glaring harshly at Madara along with the rest of the combined Nations.
"Oh, did I hit a nerve, "Madara said, "Shame, she would've been an excellent Akatsuki member; maybe I'll use the resurrection jutsu"
"Shut up, Rasengan, "Naruto charged
"It's useless, "Madara dodged, "You're all too weak"
"Be quiet, Chidori, "Sasuke followed Naruto
Sasuke and Naruto fought Madara with all that they had. Their heart were broken, no doubt about it. They both had lost someone that they dearly cared about. There was nothing that they could do to bring her back.
'Sakura-chan'
'Sakura'
"Amaterasu, "Madara smirked, "Burn in a fire"
"Rasengan Shuriken, "Naruto shrieked
Flying right into the fire, Naruto threw Madara's attack right back at him.
"Impossible, "Madara shouted, "No one can control my Amaterasu"
"We'll see about that, Sharingan"
"Byakugan"
"Fang over Fang"
"Flower Bomb"
"Eighth Gate: Open"
It was a fight of all fights, Rookie Nine and their sensei fought hand in hand to avenge their lost teammate. Tsunade and the other kage were watching the fight unfold on the sidelines while other ninja guarded them.
'Sakura, where has he sent you'
