Perfect Consonance

You can close your eyes

from the things you don't want to see,

but you can never close your heart

from the things you dont want to feel

"Please" A 17 years old Sakura begged. She tried to loosen the grip Sasuke had on her wrist. Her body, drenched from the rain, shivered uncontrollably because of the cold temperature. This is not good for the baby.

"Is that mine?" Sasuke angrily asked. This is going nowhere, for the nth time, the two have been discussing the issue. Sakura looked at him, too scare to answer, afraid that she might say the wrong one.

"Yes," she said, "this baby I'm carrying is yours." She can see in Sasuke's eyes that he didn't believe her. What has gotten inside Sasuke's mind? Last week, he wasn't like that. He even kept reminding her to take care of herself and their baby. And now, when he returned, he isn't the Sasuke she knows. Something is wrong.

"Bitch!" Sasuke slapped Sakura hard on the face, drawing blood from her cheek. Too angry to even know what was happening, he roughly pushed her to a decaying tree. With his sharingan activated, he looked directly at her eyes forcing her to look at him.

"Just wait," she stammered, "I'll be due next month. You're gonna see that the baby is indeed yours."

Sakura would do anything for Sasuke. She love deeply that it blinded her from the ugly reality she was in. When she discovered that she was pregnant, the two decided that they would live in a secluded place near the boundary of Konoha. No one will accept the 'love child' she and the traitor created. Tsunade and the other didn't agree at first, the hokage even promised that she would use all her influence so that the child will be accepted. But in the end, after explaining everything and hurting a lot of people in the process, they eventually gave in to what she wanted. It was also decided that only a few would know about this. Now, once a week, Kakashi, Naruto and Sai would visit her. Sometimes, Ino and Hinata would also visit. Tsunade, being very busy, could only come once a month to check up on her.

"Don't you dare lie!" He shouted at her. The tree behind them started to break from the weight they are putting in it. Sakura kept her mouth shut but mentally prayed that this will end now. Her body, fragile because of the baby, cannot handle the beating Sasuke gives her.

Kami-sama, I'm so weak.

"Whore"

I cannot defend myself.

"If this is not mine,"

Sick and tired of everything

"I swear,"

Little princess

"I'll kill your baby"

Don't worry

"so painfully slowly,"

Mommy won't let anyone hurt you.

" it will make you insane just by watching it."

Three chakra signatures appeared from their left. The three from the looks of it are traveling fast towards them. A bit in a hurry in fact.

"Your rescuers I see." He nipped her ear, liking the taste of her blood in his lips.

Kakashi-sensei

"Your lover I presume." He said while tucking a bit of hair behind her ear.

Naruto-kun

"Here to save you and that damned child."

Sai-kun

"This is going to be fun." He cynically smirked and kissed her temple before he left her side. He went a few feet away from Sakura and prepared him self to fight. He felt the three are only a few kilometers away. He waited patiently, both his feet planted firmly on the ground. His hands, linked behind his back, are itching to bring damage to these people. Any second now.

Three

Pandemonium will commence

Two

Blood will be spilled right in this spot.

One

"Well, well, well" Sasuke calmly said. "If it isn't the pervert, idiot, and scumbag. I thought it would be the lover" He looked at Sakura and gestured to the three. "You have visitors."

Sakura tried to balance herself but failed. Falling on her knees and supporting her enlarged belly that started to constrict, she smiled at the three. She felt the angry aura of her protectors. She opened her mouth to speak but no words came out. Too happy at what was happening, she didn't notice the warm liquid flow out of her. Warm blood mixing with cold rain.

"Sakura" Naruto called her. The tone of his worried voice made her snap back to reality. She shifted her gaze at the site Naruto was looking at. Red fluid. Blood. She desperately seek the life inside her.

"You'll pay for this bastard!"

Little princess

"Hn"

Fighting to remain conscious, she looked at her family giving them a message through her eyes.

Help us

She fell hard on the ground, entering in the world of darkness.

Chaos ensue.


The rain finally stopped when a group of shinobi entered the village. All of them, ignoring their complaining body, went directly to the hokage bringing with them an urgent message.

Tension, coming directly from the hokage, filled the air after the information was given by the captain. The four-man team waited patiently for her orders. Kakashi leaned on the wall and pulled out his most priced possession orange colored book. He already knows what Tsunade will say. He will just have to wait for those words to be spoken to make it official. The bird masked beside him yawned behind his mask. Sai, in a tiger mask, played with his kunai, flipping it the air. Their medic, being new to this kind of job, sat uncomfortably and did an awful job at concealing his nervousness.

"Place Konoha in Alert Level 2"

There goes our mission-free weekend, thrown all of them out of the window. Kakashi sighed.

"I want all of the Jounin and ANBU in the conference hall within 15 minutes." She looked directly at Kakashi who didn't bother to close his book when she started to give commands but knew that he is listening to every word she say. "Not a second late"

His three teammates smirked at this. It is a common knowledge that the silver-haired ninja has a habit of being late all the time. All of them knew that the last command was specifically for him.

"I don't care if they are sleeping or procreating. Bring them there in a state of dress or undress they maybe in." All four of them grinned at what she said. "You have only thirteen minutes left." Faster than a blink of an eye, the shinobi left leaving a puff of smoke in the office.


Sakura slept soundly on the sofa installed in her office. She fell asleep after crying everything to Neji. Her mouth is slightly open while her arm dangled from the sofa. Her eyes, will be swollen when she wakes up. Neji went to her and fixed her sleeping form so that she won't fall. Satisfied with her position on the sofa, he went back to the window he was leaning in. Absorbing evrything she told him, he again observed the pink haired medic.

Weak? Yes when they were younger, especially because she was outshadowed by her two teammates. But look at her now, there is no sign of weakness in her body or skills. Sasuke will have a hell of a time if he ever faught with her.

Sasuke. That bastard. He wants to avenge his family by killing his brother. But he is just like Itachi. They should both kill themselves. Killing innocent runs in their blood I guess..

Sakura. Fate has been really cruel to you. You have to accept everything that happened. "You have to move on" he heard himself whispered. You cannot turn back time to save those that were lost. You have to focus on the present, prepare for the future and don't dwell on your past. If you want to see the grateful things destined for you, you have to be strong and be positive in life.

Neji sighed and looked outside. The rain has finally stopped but the flood still hasn't subsided. Three figures ran out of the hospital going to three different directions.

That is Kakashi he thought to himself. So, they are back. A knock directed his attention to the door. Shikamaru's and Sai's chakra signatures. The door creaked open letting the light I the hallway illuminate the office.

"Neji, we are-" Shikamaru started but Sai interrupted him.

"What are you doing here with Sakura?" Sai's body is calm and devoid of any tension, but the two knew that he is angry inside. Over-protective brother mode is now activated. Ever since Sai has been with the company of Sakura and Naruto, he showed real human emotions. Especially when it concerns his 'family' composed of Sakura, Naruto, and sometimes Kakashi.

Seeing that Neji is with a sleeping Sakura, they have already deduced that Sai is in the verge of starting a fight.

He calmly walked inside, his hands, both on his side. He went directly to Sakura to see if she is okay. She has been crying.

"What did you do to her?"

"Nothing" he replied. He walked out of the office but Sai stopped him. He gave Neji a look that clearly stated that the issue is not yet finish.

Sakura stirred and Sai let Neji go, focusing his attention to her.

Shikamaru again called Neji's attention saying that the hokage needs them again. Before closing the door, Neji gave Sakura one last look.


In the conference room, the ninjas gathered waiting for the hokage. It was only two in the morning, but they are already alert and ready to accept whatever she wants from them. A group of shinobis laughed at a joke their friend said. On the far right, a few women updated themselves with the latest gossips. Noise filled the room until the hokage entered followed by two elders and Ibiki. All attention is focused on them especially to the blonde sannin.

"I'm sorry for depriving you of a peaceful sleep and hauling all of you out of your beds in this damned hour of 2." Some snickered at what she said while others murmured 'it's okay' to her. "I'll brief you on what will about to happen."
