Chapter 2 – New Member

Months later Sakura and Orochimaru just finished working with curse seal, until Kabuto came to speak to Orochimaru. Kabuto waited for Orochimaru to step away, told him of the good news.

"Orochimaru-sama, the next host is ready for the curse seal, the Chunnin Exams are getting ready to start. Sasuke Uchiha will be participating in this examination."

Orochimaru grinned manically, and turn to Sakura.

"Sakura, I have to get ready for my next step of the plan, please behave while Kabuto and I are gone to Konoha."

"Yes Orochimaru-sama"

Sakura bowed and left to her room, Kabuto followed Orochimaru to the labs to pick up the 'teams' for the exams.


3 Weeks Later:

Sakura had returned from her extended training trip in the mountains. She had decided to go to the mountains by herself for some training without being disturbed. She was already better with the curse seal, she has a third stage to use in her disposal.

Sakura was on her way to her room for a hot shower, when she heard some commotion down the hall near her father's room. She quickly walks down to the door, and walks into the room.

She stopped right at the foot of the bed where her father lay with his arms dead, she just stared for a while. Orochimaru watched her, then spoke up.

"Blossom, I lost my arms to the Hokage, but he lost his life doing so. I will have my arms back, I have finally got my host to complete my goals for now. His name is Sasuke Uchiha."

"Oh and Sakura…I have mission for you for next 4 years you going to spend time with a friend of mine, who is going to train you while I get my next host ready."

Sakura nodded, and left the room to pack for her long mission. While packing Kabuto snuck his way in the room.

"You know Sakura, Orochimaru-sama forgot to mention some details. Unfortunately, Kimimaru did not survive his illness, and all the sound of four are gone as well. I hope you understand that they were just pawns in the plans. Don't hate him for that."

Sakura appeared behind Kabuto, and grabbed him in a choke hold. He started struggling to break free but froze when she started whispering in his ear.

"If you want to live beyond this point I would not push my limits with comments like that, I will not hesitate to end your existence. I have already received that information and dealt with it accordingly. Watch your step, Kabuto it may be your last."

She let him fall to the floor and he got up left. Sakura finished packing for her trip and went to say goodbyes. As she left the base, she started crying for Kimimaro, she had lied when she said she already knew about him dying. She stopped crying, she started think about what to do with Kabuto when she came back from her mission.

'I will take care of him, I have feeling he will fail helping my father. First I must prepare my self for my next teacher, her name is Tsunade, and she is very hard find unless your Orochimaru-sama.'

With that she continued her journey to find the Great Slug Princess, Tsunade.

To be cont.
