Chapter 3: Intruder

Sakura stared at the ceiling while the nurses shoved everyone out of the room saying visiting hours were over.

I Found You

Sakura shuddered. That sentence kept repeated over and over in her head. Every time she heard it, it would grow louder.

Sakura pulled off the covers and got off the bed. She walked out of the room dodging nurses who happened to walk by.

Sakura opened the door and stepped outside on the roof. The wind played with her pink locks as she moved towards the rail.

She looked at Kohona as she thought about the strange voice in her head.

She looked at the Hokage Monument, every time she looked at it, she would get a feeling like there shouldn't be any faces on the giant cliff.

"Haruno-San! You shouldn't be walking just yet!" A frantic nurse said as she ran towards Sakura. Sakura turned towards the nurse and scratch the back of her head nervously.

"Sorry, I just wanted to get some fresh air," Sakura said. She gave one last look to the monument before following the nurse back into the hospital.

A Few Hours Later

"Haruno-San, I'm sorry but you are going to need to spend the night here and you will be realized in the morning," A nurse said while she put the clipboard she was writing on in the little holder on the front of the hospital bed.

Sakura sighed. "I told you, I'm perfectly fine. I want to sleep in my own bed." Sakura complained as the nurse prepared her bed.

The nurse just smiled. "Pretend this is a mini vacation, I'll try to sneak in some good food for you in the morning instead of that nasty hospital food," She said with a small wink.

Sakura smiled back at her. "Okay," Sakura held out one finger. "But I'm only staying for one night," She said.

The nurse laughed and nodded her head. She said her goodbyes and left the room, shutting the door gently behind her.

Sakura sighed and flopped down on the bed. She spread out her arms and legs and let out a yawn.

"Well I might as well go to sleep since I have nothing better to do," She said as she got under the covers and fell into a heavy sleep.

"Where am I?" Sakura thought as she walked through a street that was abandoned, all the shop windows and doors were shut and it looked like nobody had been in town for at least a year.

Sakura continued to walk through the town. She suddenly stopped when she saw two people walking next to each other.

Sakura hid behind an abandoned cart, and waited for the two people to walk by.

Sakura couldn't see what they looked like since they both were wearing black cloaks with the hoods up but she could hear what they were talking about.

"Mandara, it has already come to this town, and by the looks of it, it came about a year ago. How are we suppose to catch it if we're so far behind?" A girl's voice said.

The other cloaked person chuckled at this. "You have to be patient Crescent, if you try to rush things it will just get away," he said.

The girl crossed her arms. "Well I'm so sorry if I don't know how to capture an akuma, Uchiha," she said, her annoyance was clearly shown.

Sakura's eyes widened. 'It's Mandara Uchiha!' Sakura didn't dare to move as both Mandara and the girl, 'Crescent' walked away.

When Sakura waited a couple of minutes to make sure both were gone and weren't coming back she let out a breath.

Sakura stepped out of her hiding place and glanced at the spot where she last saw Mandara Uchiha.

"What could he want with an akuma? And who was that girl?" Sakura said out loud to herself.

"Sakura-Chan," A little girl's voice said from behind Sakura. Sakura jumped and turned around only to find that no one was behind her.

"Behind you, Sakura-Chan," the girl's voice said again. Sakura whirled around and saw a little girl who was also wearing a black cloak.

"Who are you?" Sakura said, taking a defensive stance.

"It's time to wake up Sakura-Chan, he's waiting for you," She said before the deserted town disappeared from Sakura's view and everything turned black.

Sakura shot up in her bed. She shoved off her blankets and ran out of the room.

"Haruno-San!?" A nurse yelled as Sakura ran past her.

Sakura ran towards her house. People gave her weird looks as she ran past them, but Sakura only ran faster.

When Sakura got to her house she stopped dead in her tracks.

The front door was opened slightly. Sakura slowly walked in the house.

She shut the door behind her out of habit. When Sakura walked into her living room, she froze.

"It's nice to see you again Sakura, or should I say Crescent," Mandara Uchiha said, his red eyes staring at her emerald eyes.
