Chapter 2

An eight year old Uchiha Sasuke was walking through the forest and spots a body covered in blood and cuts. He does the only thing he can think of and that is to run to his aniki. He finds his aniki at a training ground packing up his stuff and runs right up to him.

"Sasuke what's wrong?" concern coated his voice thinking that his otouto was hurt.

"Girl…pant… blood…pant…forest hurt." too tired from his run to get Itachi to speak properly. He tugs on Itachi's hand and pulls him to the spot where he found the girl.

Once there Itachi bends down over Sakura's body and notices the small cuts are all over her body. He takes a closer looks and sees the Konoha headband around her head. I've never seen her before.

"Aniki who is she. I don't think I ever saw her before" said Sasuke as he cocked his head to the right to get a better look.

"I don't know."

"I thought you knew everyone in konoha and she looks pretty too."

Sasuke was practically voicing Itachi's thoughts. Itachi still observing Sakura quickly noticed that some of the cuts were still bleeding.

"Sasuke hurry up and go get okaa-san and tell her to bring her first aid kit quickly. I'll wait here with the girl." Itachi ordered

- ten minutes later

Mikoto arrived a few seconds behind Sasuke. She bent beside Itachi and looked at sakura's bruised body. Mikoto had a serious expression on her face. She grabbed the canteen of water and towel that she brought along, and cleaned of the blood on sakura's body.

"Itachi pick her up and bring her back to the house and place her in a guest bedroom. Sasuke you're going to come with me and pick up a few extra medical supplies and some clothes for her." Mikoto told her sons

Mikoto left with Sasuke toward the village. This left Itachi alone with the sakura. He placed one of his arms under her legs and his other arm behind her back aka bridal style. Wow, she's really light. He started walking down the streets when some of his fangirls came up to him and started talking in the most annoying high pitched voices ever.

"Itachi-kun, why don't you carry me instead of that fat cow in your arms?" a girl with brown hair wearing black leather mini skirt and tight baby tee said.

"No, don't carry her, carry me I'm as light as a feather!" a girl wearing tight pants and tube top with black hair and red tips at the end of her hair said. At this comment Itachi rolled his eyes and kept walking toward the Uchiha district.

"Why are you even carrying that pink haired freak of nature, anyways?!" said, a girl wearing a way to short skirt and a shirt that showed way too much cleavage with purple hair. She was Itachi's number one fangirl and her name was Amaya.

Sakura's eyes began to twitch when she heard voices around her. She finally opened her eyes and was met with two onyx orbs staring right back into her eyes.

"Will you shut up already god leave him alone and go away" sakura said in an annoyed and exhausted tone.

"Excuse me bitch, what did you just say?" the girl with purple hair said

Itachi stopped walking even though he was a few blocks away from the Uchiha district. He had an amused glint in his eyes and decided to see what happens next.

"I said 'leave him alone and go away'" this time sakura lazily waved her hand signaling her to come closer to her. The purple haired girl hesitantly walked closer at the chance to be closer to Itachi, but wondering what the girl might do to her. Sakura used her pointer finger and thumb and made a flick in between her eyes and Amaya flew backwards and landed on the grass.

Sakura closed her eyes and made a huge sigh. And fell asleep again without noticing the smirk on Itachi's face as he brought her to the house. Thank kami I don't have to listen to those annoying fangirls. Itachi entered the house walking towards one of the guest bedrooms.

The room had aqua colored walls with a full sized bed. The bed had a dark blue comforter with white pillows. The only furniture there was a desk, dresser, changing screens with sakura's on them, bed, and a wicker chair in the corner of the room. The closet doors were mirrors and there was another door that was a bathroom.

He gently held sakura in one arm and placed her underneath the comforter. He made a loud sigh and shook his head in disapproval at the way she looked. Her face was paler than it should be and she looked like a mess. Itachi walked over to the wicker chair and awaited the arrival of his mother.

Mikoto walked into a clothing store to buy a pair of clothes for their 'guest' to wear when she woke up.

"kaa-san, what are we doing in a girls store?" asked Sasuke

"We're getting clothes for our guest so she can be clean when she wakes up Sasuke-kun."

"Itachi-kun we're back." Mikoto said as they walked into the guest bedroom where sakura was. Mikoto opened up a medicine bottle and gave sakura two red pills to even out her blood count, wrapped up her cuts and healed some of the more serious bruises.

Sakura was beginning to wake up from her sleep. When she woke up once again she was met with two onyx orbs. He looked around her age and looked slightly familiar. She looked outside the window and noticed it was dark outside then looked at the clock on the bed stand and it said 8:22 pm. Sakura decided to sit up and started to talk.

"Who are you and where am I?" sakura questioned genuinely curious

"It's not polite to ask for someone's name before stating their own." He retorted

"My names Sakura, now who are you and where am I?" said in a still friendly, curious tone

"Uchiha Itachi and you're at the Uchiha district." He replied

"Who found me?"

"My otouto found you and we brought you here."

Mikoto walked in to the room and said, "Oh, you're up. I see you met my eldest son. My name is Uchiha Mikoto and you are…" she trailed off to let sakura fill it in herself.

"Nice to meet you Mikoto-san my name is sakura" sakura replied politely.

"Well sakura-chan why don't we leave you to get dressed. We left you clothes on the dresser and I'm sure you're hungry. When you're done come downstairs we will have a plate ready for you."

Sakura bowed her head, "thank you, but no thank you I'm really not that hungry right now."

"Don't worry about it. You'll just have a big breakfast then." Mikoto said in the same cheerful demeanor and left the room

"Before I forget, Thank you Itachi-san for taking care of me," sakura slightly bowed her head again.

"Don't bow you don't need to and I think you should sleep. I'll see you in the morning… o yeah would you like me to show you around konoha?" Itachi asked.

"I'd love for you to show me around thank you for asking Itachi-san" sakura said with a little blush on her cheeks

"Okay then we'll go after breakfast, oyasumi, sakura-chan."

Sakura laid her head on the pillow and closed her eyes to try to sleep again. Her thoughts drifted to who sent her to the past and what he meant by gift. With these thoughts in mind sakura quickly fell asleep.
