Anyway I'll be trying my hardest to update so... ya... Oh and I'd like 10 reviews before I put up the next chappy pwease.))

Sakura narrowed her eyes at him, "Hiroshi." She greeted dully. "Sakura, how come you didn't recognise me?"

"What are you doing here?"

"That's not something you should be asking your brother after all these years." Sakura laughed curtly, "Oh so it's brother now is it?"
"Don't you remember the last thing I said? I said I'd come back for you."

"The last thing I remember is seeing your back as you walked away." Hiroshi looked down, "I just needed to find myself."

"Did you find him?" Sakura was so angry her aura circled around her almost visibly. "I thought I did, but then I sensed mum and dad, and then I saw you. What were you doing in there anyway?"

"Akatsuki?"

"Yeah."

"I work and live there." Hiroshi huffed and looked down, "No way." He punched his hand into the tree trunk, "No way Sakura! You joined Akatsuki? What the Hell is wrong with you?" he was angry now. Sakura clenched her fist, "What's wrong with me? There's nothing wrong with me you idiot!"

"Then what are you doing hanging out in a base full of murderers and psychos?" he shouted back. "I am one of those murdering psychos!"

"No! I am taking you home right now and you're going to realise where you belong."

"I was home until the whole family decided to break in!"

"That is not your home! You live in Konoha!"

"Not for the past couple of years I haven't, didn't you hear I'm one of the top ranking assassins." Her face was twisted in hatred. "What the hell drove you to join them?" he pointed back towards the Akatsuki base.

"I don't have to answer to you."

"Yeah you do. I'm your brother!"

"No, you're not, a brother would have kept his promise, a brother wouldn't have left me alone. A brother wouldn't have left me to go insane whilst I was so alone!"

"I couldn't take it!" Sakura paused at his sudden outburst, "I couldn't take it that they were gone, and you, you look just like them, you always did and every time I saw you I saw them and it was like seeing them die all over again."

"You didn't even go to see the bodies. You wouldn't go with me, why did I have to be the adult? You're the older one." Hiroshi was silent for a few seconds, he finally lifted his head expecting to se his sister's eyes glittering with her tears, but all he saw was a slightly vacant expression and anger. "So you forgot about me?"

"I didn't mean to, I guess that's how my mind works now though, I forget what I don't want to remember."

"Sakura…"

"Sorry did I hurt your feelings?" she replied with mock consideration.

"Come on, I'll take you home and you can get some medical help."

"No."

"I'll take you there by force." His serious expression faulted when he heard the giggle erupt from his sister's mouth, "You really think you can take me down by force?" she asked. Hiroshi pulled out a kunai, "You may be stronger but you still can't beat me." He said beaming with grave confidence.

Sakura moved her hands into a hand seal, "Sakura-Kuro – forest infection!" she called. Hiroshi gasped when the tree branch twisted beneath him. Sakura's eyes had gone black and her expression was grave. Hiroshi slashed his kunai against the tree branches that shot towards him.

He ran through the trees trying to dodge the branches, "When did she get this strong?" he asked as he jumped over a swinging tree branch. "You're wasting your time running, Hiro, I can see you through the trees." Hiroshi spun around and cut into a tree trunk, a small scratch appeared on Sakura's stomach. She ignored it and held her hands out to control the trees.

Hiroshi was knocked over by a tree branch and went flying into another tree, the tree wrapped its limbs around him and held him so tight he could only just breath.

Sakura jumped down in front of him, one arm still outstretched, "Go back to Konoha Hiro." Ordered Sakura quietly but assertively, "You are unwanted here." Hiroshi fought against the branches, "Sakura, you aren't a bad person, come home please? I won't leave here without you!"

Itachi, Sasori and Kisame finally caught up with Sakura. "Well done." Praised Kisame, "I'd say you pretty much mastered forest infection by now." He observed looking to the branches surrounding Hiroshi.

"So who is he?" asked Sasori, his puppet was behind him ready to attack. Sakura didn't look at them to acknowledge them, "He's my brother." she replied darkly. Itachi was as surprised as Kisame and Sasori, but neither he or Sasori showed the emotion. "What?" Asked Kisame, "I never knew you had siblings."

"I only just remembered him myself."

"What have you people done to my sister?" demanded Hiroshi as he fought harder against the tree's grasp, "Go home Hiro, and don't come back. Or I will seriously fight you." Hiroshi was about to reply when he noticed the vines grow from the ground and wrap around his feet, "Sakura-Kuro – transportation technique." Hiroshi disappeared.

Sakura turned from the tree and released the jutsu, letting all of the trees return to normal. Her eyes turned back to green and she walked away, not saying a word to the other Akatsuki members.

Kisame stepped after her, "Leave her go." Said Sasori outstretching a hand in order to stop him, "She wants to be alone." Itachi made no attempt to go after her. He just watched her walk off, her hair swishing down her back with her movements.

Sakura walked straight into the cherry blossom trees that were sectioned off in the garden, it was the only place she was sure she could be alone to meditate, Sasori didn't go there out of respect to her, it was too bright for Kisame and Itachi had a seriously bad case of hay fever and didn't go in there unless it was very, very urgent.

She sat in the middle of the square of cherry blossom trees and moved herself into a meditating position, she moved her bandana down over her eyes and let herself melt into her thoughts.

Itachi passed the cherry blossom patch, she'd been in there for hours; no doubt she was meditating. He sighed, Sakura was now without a room and they couldn't get anyone to rebuild the damage for another week. Only Itachi's wall had been fixed because it only took a bit of wood and Sasori's puppet help to do it.

Sakura's room however was another story; not only did the wall need to be fixed, but all of her furniture had been wrecked too, as well as her bathroom. Itachi silently cursed Deidara as he stared at the cherry blossom trees.

He sighed and took a step to the left, only just avoiding a kunai. Konan jumped in front of him. He'd only missed the kunai by an inch. "Itachi-teme." She greeted pulling her kunai from the wall, "You're reflexes are still good. My training has done you well."

"If you call attacking me at random moments for two years, training then sure."

"What was that?"

"Hn." Konan fixed his with a strange gaze then turned to the cherry blossom patch, "She's meditating?"

"Yeah."

"Good, in case you were wondering and didn't say because you're such an unsociable shit head, I'm here for the meeting with Pein, I was nearer here so I thought I'd come to this base to get it. Ok Itachi-teme?"

"Hn." The two walked towards the meeting room.

Leader-sama was a hologram in the middle of the room, Itachi, Kisame, Konan and Sasori stood around him, Kisame leaning against his sword, Sasori leaning against the wall, Konan sitting on a chair with one leg crossed elegantly over the other and Itachi standing by the door. Leader-sama coughed, "Where's Sakura-san?" he asked. "Still meditating." Replied Itachi.

"Well get her over here."

"Leader-sama?" called Sasori bringing attention to himself, "I think that, seeing the circumstances, Sakura is better off meditating for now. Her emotionless state has been taking over more frequently lately and I think it has something to do with the amount of missions she's been doing."

"One of you fill her in on this meeting later then." He replied. Konan smirked, as much as he pretends to hate her Pein cares about Sakura like a daughter, although none of these idiots realise it. She thought happily.

"Are we positive that Sakura-san didn't go to the village of Sound of her own free will?"

"There's no way she did." Replied Konan, "Trust me Pein-kun, if you'd have seen the look on her face when we got her away from that shit faced, ugly, gay, dumb ass, full of himself, angry, bratty little…"

"Konan-san, I get it." Cut in Leader-sama. Konan sighed and calmed down a little. Leader-sama continued, "Ok, so that Sakura-san doesn't get captured again, and leak information to the sound village, I want her to be on a team with Sasori-san. Sasori do you accept."

Sasori nodded, "I'll make sure she doesn't slip up Leader-sama." He replied. Konan held her smirk. And now he's making sure she's looked after, he's such a softy when it comes to Sakura. He knows she wont leak any information he just doesn't want her getting her ass kicked by the Sound creeps.

Leader-sama coughed to clear his throat knowing that Konan knew his reasons for wanting Sakura partnered with Sasori. If she tells anyone I'll kill her. He thought. "Konan, I want you to be on the team with Sasori and Sakura until you get a mission of your own, but don't show yourself to the public let Sakura do the assassinations, "Same with you Sasori, Sakura… blends in better." Sasori nodded, Sakura was better at blending in and hiding herself, she didn't have millions of fan girls after her after all.

"Ok I will give you the mission details for both teams. Oh and Sasori, don't let her go into the Sound."

Hiroshi was walking back towards Konoha, "I'll tell Tsunade-sama." He said, "She'll know what to do. She'll send an ANBU team after her then they'll take Sakura back and everything will be better."

"Haruno Hiroshi." Greeted a sly voice from behind him. Hiroshi turned to see Orochimaru standing behind him and an injured Sasuke Uchiha leaning against a tree trunk. He gained a fighting stance. "Now, now Hiroshi-kun." Said Orochimaru. "We aren't here to attack you, we just want to help you."

"No way, you aren't putting any curse seals on me!" shouted Hiroshi taking a step back. Orochimaru sighed, "No I only put curse seals on the little boys I want to… um people I need to gain power from." He said. Sasuke rolled his eyes, "pervert." He muttered.

Hiroshi narrowed his eyes, "Help me how?" he asked.

"You want Sakura out of Akatsuki right? Well so do we."

"Why? Sakura is more dangerous in Akatsuki then she is in Konoha, she's killed off a number of our ninja and we want her out of the way."

"I won't help you kill my sister!" shouted Hiroshi. "No Hiroshi-kun, not kill, we want her back in Konoha that's all; so will you help us?" Hiroshi regarded him strangely, "Why should I?"

"Tsunade wont send anyone after Sakura they've all forgotten about your sister now, they gave up on her years ago and no one wants her in Konoha. If you bring her back and show everyone what a nice person she is they'll accept her again." Hiroshi nodded slowly, "Ok but no killing her."

"Of course not Hiroshi-kun."

((A.N GAAASSSPPP!!!! Hiroshi's going to work with Orochimaru?!?! And what are they going to do to Sakura?! What is this new mission?
