Mini edit (24/6/11) - Hi! sorry this is just because people have been having difficulty reading this chapter due to the lack of double spaces so I quickly put them in. Sorry for the long wait for the new chapter and who saw the new episode? It's on YouTube if you didnt know due to CN slipping up and accidentaly releasing it.

Again sorry for the wait!

Hi! Sorry for the long wait and short chapter, but my internet kinda died...

Anyways, this chapter is original content so I hope you enjoy! I'm planning to try and squeeze some original chapters inbetween each episode which reveal more and more about Sakura... look forward to it!

Thankyou sooo much to those of you who reviewed *chucks virtual cookies at reviewers*, especially Bunni Munchies *chucks frisbee sized virtual cookies*. I really appriciate the advice and I agree that Sakura is turning into a bit of a Mary-Sue, so I tried to tone her down a little (although its not that obvious here).

Disclaimer: I dont own Young Justice; I only own my OC, Sakura.

Hidden Angel Chapter 3

A pink haired girl walked down a busy road sighing to herself. She was tired, needed more money, and hadn't slept for two days. The money she had collected from her various jobs was running dry because she had spent most of it on food and the hotel room service bill. How was she supposed to know that the food on the tray in her room wasn't free? What a rip off.

She had been wandering from hotel to hotel for days, not staying anywhere too long in case somebody got suspicious, but still staying in the same general area. Secretly she was hoping to somehow bump into her recently made friends, but she hadn't.
In fact, right now, Sakura didn't really have a purpose, just trying to make a living and keep herself occupied. She was feeling lazy but she needed money so she decided that it was time to take another job and go to work.

Sakura's POV

I silently glared through the vent at the plotting villain before me. Slade, or more commonly known as Deathstroke, was bent over some blueprints of some evil weapon or robot or something. My task was simple; some one wanted a copy of these blueprints and wanted me to get them without him knowing. Of corse they'd pay well if I do the job done right, but after doing a basic background check on my employer, I found that they weren't such a nice person. So I've had a change in plans. Their plans. Deathstroke left the room to check on something and I slipped the lid of the air vent I was in off and jumped down to the floor without a sound. I pulled out my camera and pencil and started rubbing out some of the minute details. Silly villains, doing their blueprints in pencil so that I could just come in and change these very-important-yet-small details which will cause the whole thing to malfunction and explode. Which I'm sure both my employer and Deathstroke won't appreciate.
After making sure there was no evidence of the changes I had made, I snapped some pictures and tucked the camera and pencil into my sleeve.
So far this was going well and nothing had blown up yet, so I decided to take my leave before everything turned pear shaped. I crouched down below the vent, spread out my wings ready to spring up into it and crawl away when I heard something. A rather loud something actually.

A huge explosion rocked the room I was in and the whole building shook.

'I take back what I said earlier. There has now been an explosion so that wouldn't be so far so good. Well nothing really goes according to plan usually so I suppose I should go and find out what that was.'
I tucked my wings in and peered around the corner of the doorway to see a bunch of robots whiz past towards where the explosion came from. I waited for a while to put some distance between us before following them down the long corridor. We eventually came to a large room which had a huge hole on the wall and I assumed that was where the explosion was. You could see outside through the hole and I realised that I was in the east wing of Deathstroke's evil lair, which I knew because I had memorised the terrain around this place so that if all went wrong, I knew the best hiding spot.

The robots continued on into the next room, which was connected by a wide corridor and I could hear the sounds of a fight inside. Someone else must have infiltrated the base, but a little less stealthily than me.
I pressed myself into the shadows of the hallway and edged down it, towards the source of the sounds. Once I got to the end, I turned a corner to get a better view and saw Deathstroke fighting. But he was fighting them. Robin was locked in combat with the villain, and Aqualad, Super boy, Kid Flash and a green skinned girl were thrashing the robots easily. I figured the green girl wasn't an enemy and that she used telekinesis, from the way she was smashing the robots into each other with the movements of one hand while the other was at her temple.
I looked over to where Robin was and found him struggling to keep up with Deathstroke.
'It can't hurt to just help them a little, I mean, Robin really needs it and no one else is going to help him. And as long as I don't use my powers or show them my wings, they won't find out anything else. In fact, if I cover my hair, they won't even know it's me!' Sakura pulled all her hair into a pony tail and pulled the scarf she was wearing over her head and it was already over her nose and mouth (A/N you know, ninja style). Robin was kicked to the floor and he groaned as he sat up. He looked up to see Deathstroke towering over him and aiming a blaster right to his face.
"I guess this is where it ends for the boy wonder." he said smugly "Goodbye Robin."

Robin's POV

"Goodbye Robin."
At that moment, a black blur knocked Deathstroke to the ground and his blaster flew to the other side of the room. Rubbing my head I looked up to see the rest of the team still fighting the seemingly endless robots. They'd be alright, they could hold their own against some killer androids. I turned to Deathstroke, who had gotten off the floor and was now fighting the black blur, except it wasnt a black blur anymore. It was what now appeared to be a girl, who seemed very familiar, about the same age as me. She was dressed from head to toe in tight black clothes which hugged her curves, and her head was covered by a loose scarf. She was fighting Deathstroke well, but even with her speed she wasn't even close to outmatching him.

She leapt towards him and swung her fist, aiming for his face. But he saw this comming and ducked down below her guard and delivered a strong kick to her stomach. I ran to her side as she skidded backwards but she just hopped forward and tried to hit Deathstroke again.

Once again, the evil mastermind saw this coming and he moved to dodge it, grabbing her scarf and tossing her behind him. She flipped and landed nimbly behind him without him noticing. Her delicate landing reminded me of someone, I just couldn't remember who.

I followed up her attempts with a jab to Deathstroke's left, and while he tried to focus on dodging this, the girl delivered a roundhouse kick to his right from behind. He was caught between the two attacks and we hit both of his sides, knocking the breath out of him. Weirdly enough, while I was certain that my hand connected with his ribs, I was sure that the girl's foot hadn't made contact, it was almost as if he'd been blown away from it by an unseen force surrounding her.

He fell to the floor and I wasted no time pulling his hands behind him and securing them to a pillar so that he couldn't move. I looked up to the girl to thank her but her back was turned and she was already racing to help the rest of the team defeat the handful of robots left. Not that they needed it.

She managed to destroy three or four robots in about twenty seconds, which was pretty impressive for a girl who only fights with hand-to-hand combat.

Superboy tossed the last robot against the wall as Miss Martian walked over to check he was ok. Wally and Aqualad turned to the girl who was reaching into a robot, searching for something. They walked towards her and once she noticed this she froze, slowly removed her empty hand from the robots insides and started backing away slowly. KF and Aqualad stopped and so did the girl. Superboy just looked at her suspiciously while Miss Martian looked curious.

"We mean you no harm, we simply wish to thank you for helping us." Aqualad held out his hand to her and she paused, but cautiously shook it.

"Yeah, thanks for saving Robin, he really needed it, he was getting totally thrashed by that Deathstroke guy." said KF, earning an evil glare from me.

"Who are you?" asked Aqualad.

I peered into the depths of her hood and saw two sparkling blue eyes with gold flecks staring back.
"Wait a second! You're..." I began.

She sighed and raised her head. She tugged down her scarf from her face and pulled the hood back over her head.

"How many times do I have to say it? It's polite to give your own name before you ask for others. I thought you would know that by now, Aqualad."

"Sakura?" asked KF in disbelief.

"Hey, miss me?"

KF's jaw was hanging open but now he closed it and shook his head before he spoke again. "What are you doing here? We didn't think you'd show again after you bailed on us!"

"Nice to see you too. I don't think we've met." said Sakura as she turned to Meg'ann, ignoring Wally's question. She kept avoiding it and it was starting to bug me. Why wasn't she answering it?

"Um... Hi, no we haven't, but I'm kinda guessing that these guys have met you." said Miss. Martian, "Let me introduce myself, I'm Miss Martian, the Martian Manhunters niece. I'm from Mars, obviously,"

"You can call me Sakura, everyone else does."

"I hate to cut the introductions short but don't we have more pressing issues at the moment, like getting Deathstroke to the authorities?" said Aqualad, gesturing to the villain. Who had disappeared.

"Ugh, it took forever to track him down! Now he's probably taken those blueprints and is halfway to Gotham by now." I groaned.

"What blueprints?" asked Sakura. "These ones?" she pulled out a camera and showed us the most recent photos, of the blueprints.

"How did you get your hands on those?" Kid Flash asked in astonishment.

"Yes, it is quite an accomplishment to acquire the plans for Deathstroke's next weapon without detection," said Aqualad, "I would be very interested in how you did it,"

"I didn't crash through a wall for starters, and I used strategy, so my enemy didn't know my every move." she replied.

"Either way, you have what we need, so lets go back to Mount Justice, download the plans and have a look at what the bad guy's up to!" said KF.

"You want me to just give you the plans?" asked Sakura in disbelief.

"Well yeah, that would be the easiest thing for us. I mean, what else are you going to do with them?" I asked.

"No way! I worked my butt off to get these, do you have any idea haw long to find this place, disarm it's security and sneak in without Deathstroke noticing? It took ages! And I need to give these faulty blueprints to-" She clasped her hands over her mouth, her eyes wide and started trembling.

Sakura turned to try and run out, but Superboy stepped in front of the terrified girl to block her escape. I moved behind her incase she tried something funny.

"What was that about the plans being faulty? And to whom do you need to give them to?" asked Aqualad, suddenly serious. She shakily turned to face him, and I wandered what she was so scared of. We all knew she had been hiding something from us all along, but everyone had secrets, so we ignored it. But now it was interfering with our mission, and she can't be hiding this kind of information from us.

She stared at Aqualad and shook her head, taking her hands away from her mouth.

"I c-can't tell you that." she stuttered.

"That wasn't a question," said Aqualad.

"N.O. Spells no." Sakura said, loudly and slow, having at least partially collected herself.

Then her eyes closed, and she slumped into me, the tranquilliser still embedded in her neck. I pulled it out and lay her on the floor, and pried the camera out of her hand. She looked so peaceful in her sleep, so calm and tranquil.

"She looks so innocent, hard to believe that she could mess up our entire mission." said Kid Flash

So does the team trust Sakura? Not now they don't, but still a little... maybe...

Sorry for ending it so soon, but I've sent the rest off to be read by my beta reader to improve, and yes, I now have a Beta Reader. So hopefully the next chapter will be better. It takes place at Mount Justice and continues on from this chapter.

Please review! It makes me happy! And youtoo can be the proud recepitent of my virtual cookies... maybe next time I'll bring cake... mmm... cake...
