GAARA'S POV

"Mommy, mommy! Look what I made!" A little girl with pink hair yelled running towards a woman with red hair. The woman was talking to my uncle. The woman said something to my uncle then turned on the girl.

"How many times have I told you never to interupt me?" The woman yelled/asked while back handing the girl. My eyes grew wide at the site. I've never seen a mother hit her child before.

"Seem as though that little girl has it worse then you." Shukaku said.

"Why doesn't she strike back? Why is uncle just standing there?" I thought.

Uncle starred to the left of the woman. He acted as though the girl wasn't there.

"Sorry, mommy, I won't bother you any more. Sorry, sir." The girl wishpered and bowed then arn away.

"That girl is useless. I hope Chuichi can destroy her for her seventh birthday. She would probly kill us all if we don't kill her soon." The woman said to uncle.

"What do you mean?" Uncle asked confussed.

"That girl, Sakura, holds the seven leaved sakura demon inside her. It's the most powerfull demon of the seven sakura sisters. Like the tailed beast, but not as powerfull. She can't controll her demon very well and with out controll it destroys the body. Her father did the right thing sealing it in that disgrace." The woman said glareing at the child that sat drawing in the sand and makeinf flowers pop up.

"Chuichi...I've heard of her. Shes powerfull, but she took in a weak body."

"But the woman said that her father sealed in side of her."

"Demons choose to be sealed in or not. I chose to be sealed inside of you for later reasons, but they say Chuichi doesn't choose weak humans. She could die easily in a weak body. Strange."

I clutched my head gasping. Why was that memory comeing back now! The bloodthirst inside of me grow as i thought about Sakura being hit. I growled and my sand stirred. I disappeared with my sand. I made Shukaku let Sakura go, but he branded her with a sand mark. The mark was the sign of love on her back. It covered her whole back. He infussed our chakra to make it never wash away or fade.

Sakura's POV

I gasped sitting up in bed. Bed? I looked around I was in the hostpitle. Why was I in the hostpitle? The door opened. A woman with blond long hair and huge breast walked in. The hokage was right behind her.

"Sakura, I'd like you to meet Tsunde, she's going to look at your back." I nodded. I laid down on my stomac. The hokage left. She lifted up my hostpitle dress. I winced when it touched back. She laid her hand on my back. I bit my pellow to keep from screaming.

"Sorry, Horuno-san, but its going to hurt very bad."

"I can deal with it, Lady Tsunade-sama." I said bearly over a wishper.

Durring that night I had two seals put on me, three jutsus, and I got a new sensie for when the chunin exams were over. Naruto and Kakashi visted when they could. I was put on bed rest for a month and the chunin exams were in a week. Chuichi wanted to go to the chunin exams, but every time she tried to controll my powers on of my seals would burn., but to everyones suprise I healed in three days.

"Oi! Sakura-chan! Want to go get ramen?" Naruto yelled in my ear as we walked out of the hostpitle.

"You, baka, stop shouting! I'm right here!" I yelled hitting him on the head. Kakashi shook his head and chuckled. As we walked over to the ramen stand we walked past jewlery stand. I stopped when a pink sakura neckless caught my eye. I fingered mine that was around my neck while a memory flow though my head.

Flashback

"Gaara-kun! You came!" A six year old me yelled run towards a boy with bloody red hair.

"Sakura-chan, will you never forget me?" He asked. I huggged him. I was leaveing to go back to Konha.

"I wont forget you! I promise!" I said grinning ear to ear. He held out his hand.

"I wont forget you either!" He said and gave my a red sakura neckless.

End Of Flashback

"Sakura-chan! Sakuraaaaaaaaaa-CCCCHHHHHHHHAAAAAAANNNNNNNNN!" A loud mouth blond yelled right in my face.

"Naruto! If you do that again I will kill you!" I yelled. Kakashi was looking at me strangely. Naruto was talking about ramen when a formuliar chakra was near by.

"I'll talk to you guys later! I have to do something!" I said and ran towards team 7's bridge. I looked around. I could have sworn a formuliar chakra was near here. I shook my head and headed home, well awear of the sand that followed me.

Sorry if chapters seem short, but I don't have very much time when I write, but that might change! Thanks for the reviews, I might not get a chance to read them though. Oh well. Gaara and Sakura are fighting again. GTG
