Hehe hello all my readers! I'm so sorry I haven't updated any of my stories in forever. It's like I almost disappeared. Well although I may not update my other stories I'll try and keep this one going just for all my fans. So enjoy, I guess.

Early that morning Sakura woke-up lying on the floor. She had such a headache. Sakura propped herself up on to the wall.

"Uh…wha…what happened," she spoke to herself. Threw her unclear vision she seen a paper close by. Little by little she reached out and picked it up from the ground. She brought it close to her face and read silently. "Oh ya, I remember", she closed her eyes for a moment. She approached the desk in her room and sat in the brilliantly designed chair. Picking up the brush she began to run it threw her matted hair. It was a tedious job, but it got accomplished. Grabbing the clothes she had shed the night before Sakura put them on. Letting out a deep breath she opened the door and proceeded to the entrance. Having never looked around the place before Sakura made watchful observations. The wall was an amaranth pink style paint. "There is a lovely jasmine scent here, though it smells wonderful cherry is still my favorite." As she walked inhaling the aroma, finally she arrived. It was still mildly dark out. Sleepy men were sitting there waiting. Tsunade walked out from behind Sakura.

"Ok everyone into the back," she spoke softly yet loud enough for everyone to hear. The carriage was much nicer than the ones at Sorin. Sakura sat in the corner of the carriage. As soon as everyone was in Tsunade closed the door. None of the men showed any fear even though they knew there was a possibility of dieing.

"So how is everyone?" Sakura asked trying to make conversation. It was dead silent; all the men were mentally preparing themselves. "Fine then," she pouted. Hours past and Sakura was beginning to get antsy.

"We're almost there just hold up," one of the men whispered to Sakura.

"Ok, I'll try very hard to be patient," but Sakura was excited, worried and just couldn't sit still. She let out a sigh and lightly pressed her head against the carriage wall. They were on a gravel road, and it was so bumpy. Sakura had fallen asleep and was breathing very calmly. The noise of people awoke her. They were so strident. Sakura just wanted some peace and quiet.

"We're here, get ready everyone," Tsunade shouted sounding keyed up. Sakura laughed at Tsunade's giggyness. Though she was also just as excited, and was up on her feet. The carriage came to a sudden halt. Sakura was roughly thrown and hit the wall.

"Ow," she complained in her whiny child voice. The men were watching her and burst out laughing. "It's not funny Wees mooi, gooiend uw mij om," she cried in embarrassment. The back door opened up.

"Everybody out," Tsunade called. Sakura dove out the door, hitting the ground hard. Tsunade helped her up. "Are you ok there Sakura?" she asked

"I'm good, you?" Sakura laughed off the pain. Tsunade just had to laugh with her.

"Come on everyone, let's go inside" Tsunade exclaimed. They started to make their way up the stairs. It was a pretty log walk finally they reached the top. The coliseum was gorgeous. Their ground was paved in marble, there was an armor store and this was all for the gladiators. Sakura noticed a pile of free items, a doctor and a man with a sign up sheet. "Sakura you come with me, the rest of you head out and get prepared to fight," she told them.

"Yes mam," they answered back. While all the gladiators headed out, Sakura stayed behind.

"What is it Tsunade?" she questioned

"I'm going to get you new battle equipment," she plainly stated

"Ok," Sakura followed Tsunade into the store area. There was a large selection.

"First of all you need some kind of forehead protector as a helmet," Tsunade told Sakura: she nodded. Sakura walked over and picked up a pale green one that had a leaf symbol on the metal part and two wings on either side. She placed it on top of Sakura's head instead of the on her forehead.

"This one," Sakura admired herself in a cracked mirror.

"Ok, now you need a sword, but that has already been taken care of for you." A man came out with a long shiny sword. "I call it Tyrnea rad (rahd) (Children of leaf in elven). Sakura took it in her frail hands: it was so heavy it caused her to drop the sword to the ground. "Oh you'll grow into it" Tsunade laughed. "And the last thing you need is arm protectors."

"Kay," Sakura looked for the lightest ones. She found a pair of Persian green ones. She strapped them to her arms. They really weighed her down. "I'm done," Sakura struggled to say.

"Okay. I'll pay, you go fight" and Tsunade left it at that. Sakura dragged herself to the sign up man, trying to breath she said,

"I'm here to fight!"

"Alright, now there is a team battle about to start. Shall I enter you?" he asked

"Yes please sir" she responded

"Alrighty, Mangeria's gladiators enter the arena. You too Atilueses gladiators." Hearing that name Sakura looked for Shikamaru, but he was not there. She hung her head. Somehow her feet brought her to the entrance door the battle arena.

"ENTER!" One of the guards yelled. Letting out a deep breath she walked in. There were two of Tsunade's warriors behind her. The announcer started to talk. Sakura gazed over the crowd to see if anybody she knew was there. Suddenly her eyes stopped. There were two onyx black eyes staring her down. A chill went up Sakura's spine. She felt her cheeks grow hot and her breath was short. Almost immediately she turned around to escape the eyes.

"Alright gladiators fight," yelled the announcer. It was time to jump into action and Sakura knew it. Her mind kept wondering which spell she could use. She just stood there and thought while her teammates fought.

"I know!" She shouted out. "Ik weet dat ik verschillend en speciaal ben. Machten met die ik bleesed ben komen voor de dag en doen wat u moet," she chanted. Her body began to glow. She turned her face away from the crowd for a moment then looked back, there was a gem on her exposed forehead. "De rooskleurige wolk van stevige goedheid," she yelled in her ominous voice. A French rose pink cloud appeared before her. "GO!" The cloud obeyed. It split into three. Going at top speeds it surrounded the opponents. They started to scream. "De vrijlating." The cloud disappeared showing three knocked out men. The boy from before looked very interested.

"Congratulations Mangeria's gladiators, you have won. Please exit the arena," the announcer called. Sakura came out feeling very proud. All those people were cheering for her. After descending the stairs Sakura stood in front of the sign up man.

"Good job, here is 20,000 aureus, enjoy," he told her. Her face lit up. She had never ever seen so much money in her entire life. She let out a small giggle and went to find a chest that had been assigned as hers. She took off all her equipment except for her forehead protector and sword.

"What a relief my back is killing me," she sighed very loudly. "Some of my magic is used up, but I should be ok for another battle." She walked back over to the sign up man. "Hi, can I do another fight?" she asked

"There's only one battle left and I know you'll like it," he smirked

"What is it?" she questioned

"It's a hunting game, be the hunter or get killed," he laughed manically

"Uh, I've decided not to sign up," Sakura gulped

"To late, hahahahaha," he held his stomach and laughed hard. Sakura's face went pale. "You will face three bulls."

"No, that's quite all right" she cried

"Mangeria's gladiator enter the ring," he yelled into Sakura's ear. He shoved her through the doorway. She was so upset; she could never kill an innocent animal. Tears were forming in her eyes. Then she remembered. There was three knock out crystals in her sword "Tyrnea rad."

"I am so smart," she laughed to herself. She entered the ring trying not to smile, but she blew that one when she started to laugh.

"Ahah, we do have one brave gladiator here today. Everyone this is Haruno, Sakura. She is the first female gladiator to step into this very stadium. Please lets give her a warm welcome and wish her luck for the battle of the bulls," the announcer cheered. Sakura went to the middle of the ring and bowed. "Release the first bull!" he shouted, some bars raised and a mad bull ran out, but it wasn't that big.

"This will be a cinch," she whispered to no one in particular, but suddenly the bull appeared behind her. It charged and hit her in the back! She fell forward coughing up blood. Sticking her sword into the ground she used it as support to get up to her knees. Her hair covered her body so no one could see her bloody mess. Picking up herself she lifter her sword over her head. The bull was running towards her again. It was close now. She tapped it on the head the Tyrnea rad. The bull fell over and a new bigger one was released! "Oh no, not another one," she sighed, but when she looked at her sword only one knock out crystal remained, she was in big trouble. After knocking out the second bull she needed to come up with another plan. "Ik weet dat ik verschillend ben. Speciale bevoegdheid die ik ben gezegend met, kom voor de dag en doe wat u moet," she did an incantation. This time something else happened, her whole body changed. Her skin pure white, curly long hair, long flowing white dress and a half green half pink gem on her forehead. The ground underneath her now looked holy and sacred. "Please be tame beast," she whispered to the huge bull. The bull was under some kind of spell, it started to lick her cheek. "Come on." Suddenly she changed back. To tired to move! The bull managed to get Sakura on it's back and carry her out of the ring.
