EVERY HEART

What Is This Feeling?

"Flashbacks"

"Regular Talking"

"Creepy Talk"

On the forest floor I walked since my legs were tired from carrying us so far away from the shrine. As I did everything seemed to whisper my name against the darkness and then some.

"Little girl" a voice moaned in my ears. "Die"

"Go to hell" groaned another

"You don't belong here"

Somewhat glad was I that I had found the ANBU outfit and changed before I decided to escape. I'd really hate to end up fighting half-dressed.

My eyes stayed trained on the darkness ahead despite the snarling and growling heard on the sidelines.

Chiyo had fallen asleep once more in my arms.

I smiled down at the tiny vixen.

"Happy B-day Sakura!" shouted the blond holding out holding out a squirming russet kit.

"She's adorable Naruto!" I squealed taking her from him. "Where did you –"

"Find her?" He finished chuckling. "That's… a secret. She's yours Sakura."

The kit cooed as I cuddled her to my chest "Thanks Naruto. I think I'll name her… Chiyo"

My head shook as I tried to clear my mind of those memories. Had to focus. This person who sent me Toe-key-oh had to be around here. Somewhere.

"Sakura" Out of no where Naruto whispered my name

"Sakura" His voice lowered to a cackle.

That voice!

I ran in the direction of the sound till I found myself facing a floating mirror. With my opposite hand I rubbed my eyes trying to make sure this wasn't a mirage. But it was still there.

Walking a little closer to the floating mirror I saw Mom smiling. Laughing even. Then she disappeared and an image of my friends appeared in it's smoky depths. They were laughing and joking around. Didn't they miss me?

My eyes caught sight of Naruto and it drew in closer.

He was embracing a blushing Hinata before pulling her in for a kiss.

Something shattered in my chest the same time I punched the mirror. Tears leaked from my eyes as the mirror disappeared. Why was I crying? Wasn't my love dead? Then why did I feel so betrayed?

My gaze dropped to my bloody hand. Nobody cared I was gone so why was I trying so hard to get home?

Suddenly Chiyo's ears stood on end as she sat up jumping to my shoulder. The tiny fox began to growl.

I swiped at my tears "What is it girl?"

Her growls turned to furious yips right when a spike in chakra caught my attention. The pressure was nearly suffocating as the two familiar signatures sped up.

Not interested in being dragged back I poured chakra into my legs jumped to the nearest limb and picked up the pace. No sooner than I did I spotted the light at the end of the tunnel of trees.

Giving one last look over my shoulder I dove into the bright light. Squinting as I came out on the other side I saw a building much like a grey hokage tower.

Some people stopped to stare or point at us but I barely noticed. Instead I took notice of their odd clothing. The outfits looked like blue jumpsuits and long blue skirts. They were different from the clothes we wore. Ours resembled our clan's makeup while these appeared to be dictated by a single person.

My marveling was cut short as rustling in the background caught my ears. Quickly my emerald greens scanned the grounds for somewhere to hide till they landed on one boy in a green jumpsuit. Perfect! Making sure nobody was watching I summoned enough chakra and performed the hand sign whispering "Henge no Jutsu!"

When my eyes opened I was wearing a green jumpsuit. A hand ran through my hair and came back covered in greece. Yuck!

"Yusuke?"

Slowly I turned around.

"Yusuke. What are you doing here?"
