One week later .......

Sakura stared at her reflection in the mirror, she still couldn't believe that she had reached the third, adding telepathy, to spiritualist and submissive, she touched her chest, right above the curves of her breast were the kanjis for mind. She sighed as she slipped on a white muscle shirt.

the white material grazer the skin of her back and she hissed in pain turning around she found the her other marks were bleeding again, this happened whenever she reached another category.

The Haruno clan had at one time been a clan filled with strong people, people who were categorized by their powers, people who could look into minds, mess with them, these people were categorized as telepathic, but that was the fourth strongest. the first and the weakest off all the powers were the spiritualist, these people could see the deceased, see their enemies kills, talk with them interact with them, although when you were a spiritualist you were also classified as a person diagnosed with schizophrenia; people who hallucinated.

Then there was the second strongest, these people were the people who could control ones body, ones mind, these people could alter memories with a single touch, they could calm a person down with a hush, and cause a person to go mad with a growl, these people were known as the submissives. The third strongest was unknown to all the Harunos because it was a rare power, that only two people in her entire clans history had ever had it, and never had used it. The fourth was telepathy, and the fifth, well the fifth power were the people who were the leaders of the clan, these people were known as the timeless. Why because these people didn't age a bit, well they did but it was much, much slower than normal people, not only that but they were also able to control time itself, they could freeze it, turn it back, make it go faster, they could even go back into time in the same body, or in a younger body.

Know one in her clan had been born with the powers in so long that now all of the sudden she was born, and she had three of them already, if she got two more than she would be ..... dear god she really needed to find a way to stop it before it really did happen. She was scared of herself as it was, she didn't want others to be.

Unzipping her duffel bag she pulled out her first aid kit and taped up the two kanjis for spirit, and control, it was like someone branded her like a cow and whenever she used her kekki genksi, or adapted another one, they would bleed for days on end, like they were bleeding out all their impurities.

She reslipped the muscle shirt on and reached for her shorts, pulling them on as well, she zipped up her duffel bag, threw it under the sink, and slid the screen open.

Itachi turned another page as he read through the book, he was situated in the library on one of the chairs reading away, he'd been doing this for a whole week avoiding the small kunoichi at all cost. It wasn't that he was scared, no he just needed some space, yes when she had awoken they got into a disagreement but that was bound to have happened. He was avoiding her because she was well he didn't actually have a reason to avoid her.

He sighed as he heard moaning from the other side of the wall, Kisame was at it again, the damned blue man was gonna catch something the way he was constantly going with all these woman, and if he didn't catch anything he was bound to impregnate somebody soon. Deidara he didn't worry about seeing as the blonde only ever talked about Nami with all the females that had grown to appreciate his person, they would call him a lover boy, a sweetheart, this and that but he sounded more obsessed than in love.

Nobody dared to associate sexually with him, only because they were scared of him, and they believed that Sakura had claim on him. God only knows why they would think such a thing, yes they were staying in the same room, however they were only doing it so she wouldn't have to stay in Ehimes room. Although that didn't mean they were sleeping together, yes the thought came to him many times, but everyman thought that way about her, she was a very attractive young woman, it was normal.

Perhaps it was frustration's that was causing him to be so distant from everyone, mainly Sakura. Frustration that in a months times the Kazekage would be doing a sweep of the camp, unlike the last sweep they wouldn't be able to get away with it, seeing as it was a man, not only a man but a ex-jinchurriki, a straight one not to mention. Kisame was no bisexual, he was a womanizer, and he was proud of that, and showed how much he loved women whenever he could.

Still, his squad would surely fail the sweep, if his men didn't get straightened up, not that they weren't already, but they were nothing like the others squads. Even the Medical squad was an A, and their captain hadn't been with them for a whole weak, meaning they had been thoroughly disciplined.

He closed the book and dropped it onto the desk.

"You know I don't think I've ever seen a captain so weird since I was promoted." A female voice said

He cursed seems as though he wouldn't be able to avoid her anymore, looking up he found Sakura taking a seat across from him.

"Sweeps I presume." She said as she read the back of the book.

" .........yup it's anxiety, there would be no way that it was something else, because nobody reads a dictionary a month before sweeps, can't wait too see what happens when were only days away from the sweep itself." She continued

"What would I be so axious about?" Itachi asked

"Failing of course ...... Don't worry it happens to all new captains, your actually doing better than I had, or Shisui, jeez I think Shisui was the worse I'd seen." Sakura replied

Itachi lifted a brow, Shisui had lost it, he wished he could've seen it. "What happened?"

"Hmmm...... Oh he just had an anxiety attack, and when he woke up he puked all over the Daimyo's royal gown." Sakura explained

"And you?"

" .............well lets just say that Kazekage-sama and me got into a little beef, that has never ended, even when I went to go help him with his medic-nins." Sakura replied

"So the Kazekage has come once already."

"Yeah ...... and he's the worst off all of them ..... when it comes to sweeps." Sakura said, although the last part was barely audible.

"He's the worst?"

"Yeah, well if your a female captain, he'll pick on you, and treat you like crap, although he's nice to you if your sleeping with him .....which is how Ino got a higher rank, and was put under Nami."

"Yamanaka sleeps with everyone, if it wasn't for the fact that I feel sympathy towards Sai, I would've bedded her already."

".......Seriously didn't need or want to know that at all." Sakura said as she waved the subject off

"..........So .......have you talked with Nami lately?" She asked

"No, I believe you or Deidara told her of my disagreement with the two of you."

"Hey I haven't said anything, if someone told it was most likely Ino ...... she does like to gossip." Sakura said

They stayed in silence for a little while neither wanted to talk to the other. " .... Look I know you don't want to talk about it, but I don't think you should be so protective over her, I mean she's seventeen years old, technically in the world of the shinobi, the world we live in, she's considered an adult, a woman, because of this you should keep your distance when it comes to her and her relations, whether sexual or not. Besides if she get hurt you get to say 'I told you so.' and she'll learn from her lesson, becoming a little less naive, less gulable." Sakura began

"She's still young in my eyes, and he's too old and to experienced for her-

"Itachi you can't honestly believe that she's still a virgin at the age of seventeen can you?"

Itachi stayed quiet, it was true that most kunoichis lost their virginity at the age between twelve and fifteen, usually a girl would loose their virtues to their teammates or seseis.

"And for him being to old, Hi no Kuni has no age limits, it never has." Sakura continued

Damn another good point, why the hell wouldn't the girl give him a good reason to "Your too young too understand-

"Please don't give me that shit, hear I was trying to do this the easy way but you are too stubborn and thick headed to listen, Nami is seventeen, nearly eighteen okay, she's not a little girl, I'm sorry that you hate that fact but you have to understand that it's not the same anymore, she had to grow up okay, she has to learn who to love and who not too, she needs that heartbreak or she'll never learn these things and you know this. What it is is that you don't want her to be hurt, you still want to see her as the little girl she was before you left." Sakura said her tone was flat, but it still got his attention.

Itachi stared at the woman, yes she was young, but she was obviously very intelligent-BANG "OH GOD KISAME-SENPAI!!"

"I see now why you are so protective of her .... forget anything I just said that damn man just screwed up the whole thing." Sakura said

Itachi smirked. "I've noticed that you actually don't try to sleep with any one here, like others do, is there someone back home your waiting for?" He asked

"No more like, I just find a guy that's looking for a phsically fun sexual relationship, they all want it to contain some kind of emotional attachment."

"Scared of attachment?"

"no just- why the hell am I talking too you about this it's actually none of your business (sigh) great you just passed on your fustrations about the upcoming sweep to me .....I need to fight." Sakura said as she stood up shaking her hands abit.

"The whole reason your stuck to me is because of you not breaking up a fight, just imagine what Ehime would do if he heard that you instigated one ...... perhaps you could try something less violent."Itachi suggested as he moved over to Sakura.

He needed to get rid of his fustrations, she needed to now, he hadn't slept with someone in over a week because of her, she owed him for helping her get away from Ehime. It was only fair, not too mention no matter how hard he tried to get rid of thoughts about her and those little clothes she wore to bed, he was still a man, and fantasizing wasn't gonna be enough for him soon.

"You did say that sex was a healthy way to take out your fustration." He continued

"So true ... although Sake is as well." Sakura said as she moved away from him

"Yeah I owe you ..... but, I'm not about to sleep with you just because of that, I'm no whore Itachi-san."

Obviously she was harder to get than she allowed others to think.

Sasuke stared at the ceiling from his bed, prison was so boring, he sighed, the only thing he could do was think. Thinking was the one thing he preferred not to do at the moment as well, because then he'd have to think about the fact that he was becoming a father, that Itachi was serving an easy sentence compared to him, that Sakura had not only become strong but also moved on. The two were out of Konoha, in a settlement were anything could happen, during a war soldiers usually sleep with everyone they can, or they meet someone create a bond where they only sleep with that one person so they don't catch anything. If that were to happen then he could already see the turmoil that would ensure, Sakura and Itachi were completely opposite people, living opposite lives heading in two different directions.

Geez he was going to go mad five months of having to do this, he knew he wouldn't survive. Still though Sakura, if he wasn't expecting he'd definately run to her, she had always been so caring, and excepting to him, always had her arms wide open willling to do whatever she could for him. Any guy wold be lucky to have someone like that, he wondered about it when he was still with Orochimaru, the snake for some reason always liked to bring her up teased him about her every now and then he'd do the same with Naruto.

He'd heard rumors that the gaurds were talking about, Sakura had been rnning around the settlement with Shisui in tow at all times, this didn't surprise him Shisui always did come on as a stalker type, although he'd never pictured him running after Sakura, especially with the large age gap that seperated them, but there wasn't anything he could do he was stuck in this room with nothing to do but lay down and think.

A baby he's having a baby, his own, he's known it was bound to happen someday, but he wasn't expecting it this soon. Twenty two at the youngest but not eighteen, he knew he wasn't ready to raise it, he wasn't ready at all, but he wasn't about to show his father that he wasn't, this baby would help that old man realize how much he had changed over the years.

Karin would need to be tamed, and munipulated into the perfect Uchiha matron, he knew for some reason that Itachi would for some odd reason step down from his thrown, and when he did he was oging to be there, and be the one to take it.

Pein looked through the files in the library, it seemed to him that the book room wasn't used much seeing as he was able to get in undetected, Konoha truly was too trusting. He looked through the list of names of all the kunoichis under the Haruno category, he knew that the Haruno clan wasn't a big clan but he didn't think there would be this many Kunoichis in the clan.

Haruno, Sakura ID # 9650666. Found her, The orange haired shinobi pulled out the file and opened it, well it seemed that she was still active in the shinob system seeing as she had tons of reports the lastest being last week. He looked at the picture, it was update as well, she looked at least seventeen at the most ...... she wasn't bad looking either.

Konoha Medical fecility, Konoha Police Military, Konoha advisment office, Konoha Library, this girl was working all over the place, but where was she located at the moment, he pulled out a paper with logitude latitde on it, never giving away the exact location or the names of where they were indicating that they were at one of the settlement. But she wasn't in the Kiri settlement, or the Iwa, he looked at the coordinates, Kemuri, they were in Kemuri, he knew they were at wore with them, but he could never get any men in there, this was probably the reason why, they were keeping big secrets there, and their security was just upped a while back, around the same time they lost Kisame & Itachis signatures, if she was there hopefully they were or else his plans would not be right at all.

Three days later......

Kisame sat surrounded by many beautiful women as he ate and talked things were going so good up until Sakura sat down across from him with a pretty little smile, on her pretty little lips.

"Hoshigake I have a favor to ask you." He eyed the little hana.

"I'm not doing any work for you.-

"No I wasn't gonna ask you for anything like that." In the corner of his eye he could see that Itachi had crossed his arms listening to what they were talking about.

"What is it?" He asked

"I was hoping that you would help me out, you see I'm a water user, & I'm not that great at it, and seeing how you are I was hoping you could teach me." She said

"No."He said simply he was no ones teacher.

"Please, I really need this."

"Ask someone else."

"But no one is as advanced as you are in the water element it's a proven fact actually."

"I said -

"Lets make a deal then okay we'll play whatever game you want ....If I win you have to teach me-

"And If I win?" Kisame asked as he crossed his arms leaning back

"What do you want?" Sakura asked warrily.

Kisame thought for a moment, everyone was watching their interaction and what ever he got he wanted to make sure everyone knew about it, was jealous over it, what did he want he snapped his fingers.

"I have you to myself for a week." Kisame said, he saw many men gape at his confidence.

"Fine what the game?" Sakura said as she shook his hand.

"Sake is the name first one to puke is the loser." Kisame said as one of the girls put down some sake sake bottles and glaring at Sakura before they turned to get more.

"You know I'm too young to drink right-

"Dear little hana, were at war, and when your a soldier in war there are no rules, soldiers can do whatever the hell they want as long as they don't go back and expect it tobe done." Kisame explained

"Are you sure you wanna do this?" Sakura asked as she turned he head and watched Shisui take a seat next to her.

"Let's begin." Kisame said as he grabbed a bottle, Sakura did the same waiting for one of his biboos to say go, and when they did, the game was on, although she watched as Kisame put his hand on his side where his kidneys were and a green light emitted from him.

"Healing chakra." She said to herself before she took a swing.

"I never said we couldn't use chakra." Kisame said before he picked up another bottle.

Sakura smirked as she grabbed one as well chugging it down, then picking another one up. Pretty soon the two of them were calling out for the third batch.

Three hours later.

"More." Sakura said as she slammed down her bottle Kisame did the same as he caught up to her, he looked pale, she knew it was only a matter of time before he gave into temptation.

He held his sake bottle to his lips then put it down. "You know little hana, I'm actually quiet impressed not many people can actually last as long as you have with me .... seems like you like too kee-

"It was part of my training with Tsunade-hime, I never said I never drank, I mereky don't like to drink, especially after I finished training with her." Sakura said before she chugged her bottle Kisame did the same, both slamming down their bottles then picking up another.

Gulp

Slam, pick another up

Gulp

Slam, pick another up

Gulp

Slam, pick another up

Gulp

Slam, "More!" They called in unison.

Gulp

Slam, pick another up

Gulp

Slam Pick another up

Gulp

Slam ....... Kisame put a hand to his mouth, a he sweating and Sakura knew that one more drink would hurt him, picking up another one, she put it to her lips, waiting for him to do the same, he did and chugged it down while she took a small swig of her, taker her time to taste the warm liquor, feeling it go down her throat. She did this as she watched Kisame turn paler, putting his hand to his mouth his eyes widened in surprise before he stood up and......

"OH THAT IS DISGUSTING!" Sakura said as she backed away from the table and watch Kisame toss his cookies.

"......Well see you in the morning on the lake." Sakura said as she walked off with her sake bottle in her hand.

Itachi was already in his room, he had watched for a little while but after their tenth batch of sake bottle he left, it wouldn't be fair if Kisame got to have her and he didn't which usually when it comes down to sake Kisame usually wins. He sighed well at least he could go back to avoiding her, he stopped in his thoughts when he heard the screen begin to slide open. Opening his eyes he watched as Sakura came into the room.

"Kisame probably passed out on the table, from all the puking you might wanna get him checked for alchohol poisoning in the morning. She said as she striped took off her white, long sleeved thin shirt. then her pants, leaving her only in a bra and boyshorts. She crawled onto the bed and covered up.

Itachi stared at her, this was the first time he actually heard of Kisame losing when it came to alchohol. She was drunk he could tell that much, but she was doing a great job acting like she wasn't .....it would be easy to take advantage of her in such a state, knowingly she would comply with what he wanted, and she wouldn't remember anyways. He turned his body and rolled on top of her her eyes shot open, and she moaned. "Not right now I need to sleep." She said as she tried to push him off

"But you still owe me." Itachi said

"I-

He cut her off with his lips she looked shocked at first but just as he expected she began to give in, when people were drunk their true inner desires usually came out.

They broke the kiss taking the much needed air, and their lips meet again this time she pushed him away, braking the kiss.

"I can't." She said breathily, Itachi stared at down at her as he caught his breath.

"Your an Uchiha ..... I'm considered a Senju-

"Names don't mean a thing when were at war with the same place, were not in Konoha at the moment." Itachi said, well if she was drunk before she pretty much was sober now if she was able to say no to him.

He sighed and rolled off her, sitting up, he wasn't gonna be able to get his fustrations out with sex, standing up he walked over to the screen and slid it open.

"I'm sorry for allowing you to think you had a chance." She said before he left the room sliding the screen shut behind him.
