Hey there, 5th Chapter is up! I name it: "Disaster!" I don't really know why I named it that though…

"Gather 'round, gather 'round and you'll all see what happens next in this heart-pounding, mind-racing and romantic story!" My sister says as she advertises.

Anyway, please tell me what you think and/or tell me if ever I made any mistakes on the grammar or… whatever.

Here ya go then:

Sakura was getting worried. Itachi never went up for 20 minutes now. The moon was slowly being covered by heavy clouds and, even though it was dark now, it looked like it was about to rain because thunder can be heard and lightning can be seen from afar.

"I-Itachi-san?" Sakura said, trying to sound impatient, but she couldn't help stuttering since he hasn't shown up. She tried looking for his chakra signature, but the closest one she saw was Itachi's—which was 12 feet away from below her.

Sakura immediately dove underwater and searched for Itachi. 'Where is he? Could this be only a trap? But he never went up…' Sakura thought. Many things were in her mind now and Inner Sakura was also starting to panic noisily inside her head.

Sakura went up the surface again to catch air, after that, she went back down. She looked around and saw a shadow. It was Itachi and he was still. She swam to him immediately. She pulled him up the surface immediately.

In the distance, Kisame knew about Itachi's plan. He watched as Sakura bit into his colleague's bait. 'She'll be mad at him for sure.' Kisame thought. 'Then I'll just stop her when she's already gone mad.'

Sakura pulled Itachi to dry land. "Itachi-san!? Itachi-san, wake up!!" Sakura shouted at him. She did a first aid (the thing for drowned people). She did everything—except lips to lips. "Why don't you try lips to lips? It's the only thing you never did…" Inner Sakura asked.

'Shut up!' Sakura thought, 'That's one thing I'm avoiding!'

"But what if that's the one thing that would help him recover?"

Sakura stopped and thought about it. 'Could it be that he wanted me to do this?' Sakura thought. Then she tried again all the first aid stuff she knew, except the lips to lips thing. Itachi choked once. He choked twice. Thrice, quadruple times now.

He opened his eyes. Sakura felt joy, although, she didn't know why. "What happened?" Itachi muttered.

"You fell into the lake…" Sakura answered. Itachi sat up. 'I remember losing my chakra control. Then there was this thing that caught my foot. I couldn't fight it then… everything went black.' Itachi recalled in his mind.

"What happened in there?" Sakura asked. "Why didn't you come back into the surface immediately?"

"Nothing…" Itachi said, then he stood up and started walking back to the house.

"H-hey! What about the fight?!" Sakura shouted at him.

Itachi stopped and said, "You win."

'I-is this real?' Sakura thought. 'Impossible! That means… he gave up?'

"No, silly. He didn't give up. He was knocked out remember!?" Inner Sakura said. "That's why he admits it. He lost to you."

'No, he wasn't knocked out by me. It was the water. He couldn't breathe underwater.' Sakura thought. 'But he considered it…'

"You don't know sometimes, who would've thought that he wasn't a rule-breaker?"

'Anyway, we better get inside now… I think its going to rain.' Sakura thought as she started walking back to the Akatsuki hideout.

When Sakura got inside, she headed to her room immediately. She changed into dry, clean clothes. Later, she went to the kitchen to cook dinner, since Kisame said he doesn't cook. Then after that, she set up the table and told them to eat.

"Really," Kisame said when they were all eating. "Eating this late is… not really something we usually do."

"Well, it's not my fault that we couldn't eat immediately after our battle was gone." Sakura said. "You said you couldn't cook."

"I don't. My job is to assassinate people my boss tells me to and watch over Itachi, period." Kisame said simply.

"Whatever." Sakura said. Then they all continued eating in silence till they finished. As usual, Kisame volunteered to wash the dishes. Then Itachi went to his room and Sakura cleaned the table.

After that, Sakura went to her room, leaving Kisame alone. In her room, she undressed and examined her wounds. Then she changed to the nightclothes she made since her second night in the hideout.

MEANWHILE…

Team 7 is moving in the quiet night. Ino was now separated from Team 7 since she had to go back to her team and find Sakura. In replacement, Sai was with them—with which Naruto was very upset about. "You have to have him in your team because Ino has to go back to hers. Ino's team will be helping with the search… this will make our search wider, don't you want that?" These were Tsunade's words when Naruto complained.

And far away from Team 7's location, were Hinata, Kiba and Shino. "I think we have to look somewhere else." Kiba said when they had finished looking around their area. "Let's go this way." He directed. And they headed east.

On the other side of the country, the reunited Team 10 was taking a break. Shikamaru sighed as Chouji took out another bag of chips. "Will you stop that?! This is serious!" he scolded Chouji. He looked at Ino who was sleeping lightly in her sleeping bag.

"I wonder how Sakura-chan is…" Tenten asked while they, Rock Lee, Neji and her, moved along trees heading towards the Sand. Their team has just gotten back to Konoha when they suddenly were assigned to help in searching for the second-best healer in Konoha. "Do you think she's alright?"

"She has to be…" Neji said, he was remembering a moment he had with Sakura one time. "She's Sakura Haruno."

It was in the day and Sakura and Neji were walking to the Hokage's office. That time, Sasuke still hasn't come back and Neji thought of cheering up Sakura. Truth is, Tenten asked Neji to comfort Sakura... so he did. "Tell you what, maybe we could… train." Neji asked awkwardly.

"Sure." Sakura said, almost not paying attention to what he was saying. She had just come back from a failed mission and attempt to get Sasuke back that time so she was depressed. "Let's go."

'Wow… this really has a bad effect on her. I bet Sasuke was her first love.' Neji thought, 'It must be so sad for her first love to reject her then leave her all alone…'

Neji saw Sakura wipe her eyes with her arm. Then she faced him and said, "C'mon, Neji-kun! You better hurry up if you really want to train me!"

'Huh?' Neji thought. 'I thought she was all down… sigh… girls are so confusing.'

"Alright, we'll train." Neji said. And they trained and trained until Sakura couldn't move. They sparred, Sakura won 5 times but Neji had won the 6th.

"How can a Hyuuga beat me?!" Sakura said, they were resting under a tree and it was almost sundown since the sky was turning slightly orange. "I am the best ninja here."

"Correction," Neji said. "You're the second-best medical ninja here."

"Whatever. Thanks for today, Neji-kun. I really had fun training and sparring with you." Sakura said. "I've got a piece of advice for you anyway…"

"Advice?"

"Yeah, try going out with Tenten-chan… I know she likes you."

End of Flashback

'Sigh…' Neji thought. 'I've already tried, Sakura-chan… and now, we're secretly a couple. You must be proud of me taking your advice… Tenten was already happy. But when you were kidnapped, she had become sadder than before we did become a couple…'

"Neji-kun, watch out!" Tenten said when she noticed that he was spacing out. Neji almost slipped from a tree branch. "Thanks…" he said.

"What were you spacing out for?" Rock Lee asked.

"It's nothing…" Neji said. And they continued on their journey.

MEANWHILE…

It was early morning and Sakura was the first to get up… like always. She quietly slipped into the kitchen and made scrambled egg and ham she found in the fridge. "Lalalala" She sang as she cooked.

Somewhere in the house, Itachi woke up from the smell of the food and her singing… her wonderful singing. 'Hmm… I smell something good…' Itachi thought as he got up. He went outside and saw Sakura preparing the table.

"Mornin…" He said as he took a seat. "What's that?"

"Oh, good morning." Sakura said as she put down the plate of freshly made scrambled eggs and ham. "It's scrambled egg and ham…"

"I know its egg and ham." Itachi said. "But what's that on the apron?"

Sakura looked down at the apron she was wearing and saw some kind of gigantic ant. It was too big for a normal red ant and it surely had really sharp pincers. It also had Sakura recognized the gigantic bug as a tongeral. It was a really rare kind of bug and it was dangerous and fast.

"Aagh!! Get it off!" Sakura screamed as the tongeral crept up to her neck and went to her back. "Hurry! Or I'm gonna die and I'm taking you with me!"

Itachi took the glass on his table which was half-filled with water. He threw the water to the bug, and Sakura's shirt and apron. The bug landed on the table and Itachi trapped the bug with the glass.

Sakura was cursing and swearing to herself as Itachi used his Sharingan to kill the bug. "I wonder why this guy was really slow today."

Sakura thought she heard him wrong. She turned to face him and said, "What do you mean by that?"

"I mean…" Itachi started. "There are a lot of tongerals here. I've captured this guy before. It was really fast… but I still got it. And one day I saw it gone from its cage… I was planning on studying it so I didn't kill it."

"You're crazy!" Sakura said. "That… thing almost got me and…" Sakura said but she was feeling dizzy all of a sudden. She tried to stay up by leaning on the table but she fainted and fell on the floor.
