'thoughts'

"speaking"

This chapter is mainly about a flashback, oh and before I forget I don't own Naruto

Flashback:

'I'm alone again.' Sakura slumped throughout Konoha, just barely making it back to her home. 'I fell for their lies again, how stupid am I?' Sakura sank down onto her couch exhaustedly. Finally able to remove her infernal ANBU mask, she tossed it onto a nearby coffee-table.

Upon her return from her mission, Tsudande informed her about Naruto's and Sasuke's mission to the Land of Fruits (something I just pulled out my ass). They weren't expected to be back any time soon. Kakashi was still on his mission in the Land of Rain, doing Kami knows what. 'They promised they would be here when I got back… they said … count on us we won't let you down… I knew it, I knew they wouldn't hold their promise… they never do anymore.' Sakura laid down, propping her head on some couch pillows.

Today was the anniversary of her parent's murder. Every year when this date comes around, Sakura breaks down into a disheveled mess. She always need at least someone to be there, to let her know that it wasn't her fault (her parents were killed by none other than some dumbass I don't know or care at this moment to throw in. Just understand that her mental capabilities are a little wacked).

"I wish they were dead!" Sakura thought about what she had said and found, she meant every bit of it. 'This time I won't forgive them, especially him… he gave his word, he said that know what he would be here when I needed him… of all of them, I trusted him the most… how could he… how could you… Kakashi… of all of them, I want you dead the most.'

With that Sakura grabbed her mask and left her house. 'I give up… if they don't want me then fine they won't have me… I give… goodbye to this disgusting village, goodbye to all the bitter memories, goodbye to all the worthless villagers, and especially goodbye to them.' Sakura raced off to the Hokage's office, knowing full well that she would still be there. Sakura rushed past the rooms lining the hall, straight into Tsunade's office.

"Ahh Sakura, is there something I can help you with?" Tsunade's slurred words reveled that Sakura had arrived just in time.

"I would like a mission. Preferably one far away and long… S-Class if you got it." Sakura made sure to act like nothing was wrong, Tsunade may be old and drunk, but she was still sharp as a tack.

"It just so happens I do. A few days ago Itachi Uchia was located somewhere near Suna, I was going to wait till the rest of your group returned before sending you out, but seeing as to how you're so willing. I 

guess I could send you out on it." Tsunade tossed Sakura a scroll with the details of what was supposed to happen.

Sakura caught the scroll, "Thank-you My Lady .Goodbye." And with that she was gone.

Sakura had her eyes set out on a plan and figured it would work. Her plan was to fake her death and get away. All she needed was a little help, but who. 'A random villager, no to obvious… wait what if I create my own killer, then all I'll need is a witness… damn I need to at least make it look like I'm trying on this mission. I need to reach Suna and report back some lie of how well the mission is going so far.'

It only took a couple of hours till she reached the border of Suna, wrote up a little scroll and had it going back to Konoha. 'There everything is set, now all I need is to find a spot and select a witness.'

Sakura took off, going into the dense forest surrounding Suna. She kept running around the forest till she came to a clearing. 'Now I need to make a battle field.'

That's when she sensed it, a foreign chakra, making its way over to her. Sakura quickly looked around for a hiding spot, but noticed one too late. She was out in the open, with an enemy ninja not to far away.

There was a giant burst of wind, temporarily blinding her. When the wind subsided, there before her was no one else except that of Itachi Uchia. Garbed in his Akatsuki robe, making him look all the more scary.

"Finally we meet face to face, Miss. Sakura Haruno." Itachi had his eyes already watching and whirling.

"To what do I owe the honor of the presence of the great Itachi Uchia." Sakura said menacingly.

"There is no need to for us to fight at this moment in time. I am merely here to offer you a position."

"What kind of position and what if I refuse?"

"If you refuse then I'll just kill you here and now. The position I am offering is a onetime deal. The leader sees you as an exceptional kunoichi and has sent me to offer you the chance to join us." Itachi watched how she reacted.

"You mean you want me to go with you, become a rouge ninja. Let me think." Sakura saw that Itachi was ready to attack if she answered wrong. "Sounds like fun, but I want you to do me a favor in return."

"I don't do favors." Itachi's voice sounded threatening.

"Listen here the only way I will join the Akatsuki is if you help me with my own problem. I want you to help me fake my death." Sakura's strength had left her voice as the reasons came back to mind.

"Why would you want to do something like that?"

"I want to make them pay, what better way than to destroy them with a ghost." Sakura's voice now held a dangerous, deadly tone to it.

"Fine, I'll aid you in your little game."



A few days later…

A young boy came running out of the forest screaming, he had been sent out to gather some berries when he happened upon a disturbing seen.

A young pink haired woman getting torn into pieces by a crazed woman. There was a strange robed man there, but he did nothing to help save the woman. He had heard the man say something like "Good job Saki" or "Well done Saki" he couldn't remember all he remembered was the name Saki.
