Chapter 1 The chakra of the condemned
She was panting hard as she leaned against a luscious cherry tree. Days of running non stop had a way of depleting ones chakra. I t had been but four days ago that Sakura Haruno had senced the familiar chakra of the raven haired Akatsuki member. She was in the middle of fighting off a very angry hoard of white Zetsus when the chakra flair caught her off guard making her loose her footing and fall off a cliff.
Jade eyes widend as the angry chakra flaired in the distance. Sandled feet sped off like a blur with out the kunoichi even realizing it the only thing she knew was that N aruto had finally spilled the beans of the Uchihas innocence, and if what he said was true then Itachi would prove to be one of the most powerful allies they had. So that left her were she was now depleting her chakra in hopes of finding the shin obi so she could convince him to help out in the war effort.
Her toned legs screamed at her stop and sweat cascaded off her slinder her body as she finally came to the conclusion that if she didn't rest for the night then she would be of no use to any body. Her clothes clung to her body like a second skin and Sakura was almost disgusted enough with her self to search out a hot spring and bath off the dirty film that stuck to her body. 'Ugh why couldn't the man be traped in a nice village instead of out here in bum fucked Egypt'.
She could here crickets chirping merrily in the woods as the exhausted kunzite unrolled her sleeping bag sliding in it and slowly closing her eyes for a nonpeacefull nights slumber.' one things for when I get my hands on that uchiha im going to rekill him.'
The coperish scent of blood assaulted Itachis nose as one by one his ounce allied shin obi fell at his feet.
It was disgusting he had never been so revolted in his life only the lowest of the low would force fellow shin obi to murder one another. Madara sat on a branch in the far off distance beaming as he gained his sick satisfaction from watching the scene before was indeed proving to be a worthy pawn indeed. A flash of pink caught both the uchihas eyes and Itachi was forced to fallow it. The forest blurred beneath his feet as he fallowed the cherry blossom streak zig zagging through the forest canopy. Sharingan eyes narrowed somehow he knew this person, but apparently being resurrected from the dead had a way of blurring your memories. The raven haired uchiha almost smacked into a nearby oak tree when the streak he had been fallowing abruptly stopped by a nearby stream. A distinctly feminine giggle ran through his ears as he tried to stealthly make his way behind his would be apponent.
"May I ask what is highly amusing ?" his smooth barotone voice said from beside the girl as stuck the tip of his kunai to the base of her neck.
"It's nothing I just Uchiha males were suppose to be more astute of their suroundings ."
The girl said then she finaly turned and locked her jade eyes on his crimson sharing an and took smug satisfaction as they widened for a fraction of a second apparently he remembered her , But it wasn't recognition it was what she said next that had caught the uchihas attention.
"Itachi Uchiha I Sakura Haruno on behalf of the fith hokage do hearby humbly ask for your assistance in the war against akatsuki."
