It is hard to understand ...

...That there are lines that even I cannot cross.

Snow was gently falling that day, blocking the sunlight's warmth and adding the winter's bitter cold in the atmosphere. There was a tiny, frail girl, whose hair was pink like the cherry blossom, her eyes the color of the most beautiful, fluorescent leaves. She sat in fear, in uselessness, in cold loneliness, only watching the world go by her, as the warm clothes around her were not enough to keep the winter chill off her skin.

"What are you doing out here?"

Her eyes widened when she was met with onyx orbs, a fierce, cold breeze passing her by and making her shiver to her bones. She felt the touch that froze her skin, its bitter cold surpassing even the fiercest snowstorms. The girl's reflexes quickly kicked in and she jolted backwards, the only thought in her mind telling her to get away from the cold-blooded creature.

"It is a dangerous place. Are you cold?"

The figure before her stared at her, patience slowly slipping from its beautiful eyes, as it quietly knelt before her to await her answer. The girl continued to stare, almost in utter curiosity, at the figure's beauty.

"Yes."

The figure extended another cold hand, almost expecting her to take it and surge warmth back into its body.

"Then come."

Its hand lay there suspended in the cold air, snow beginning to accumulate on its pale skin. The girl hesitantly took the cold skin in her own, shivering under its freezing touch. The figure smiled and got up, pulling her away from her deserted spot in the snow. The girl took the time to completely look at it, and was surprised.

Before her was a beautiful boy, the same age as she.

But there was something different that even she could not pinpoint.

"What is your name?"

There was an eerie silence, which almost suited the boy's personality, before the girl's coarse voice rang through the air.

"Sakura."

"No last name?"

This time the eerie silence suited the girl as the two children continued walking into the winter abyss.

"I don't remember."

"Aa. I'm Sasuke. Uchiha Sasuke."

Sakura's eyes widened when a mansion appeared in the midst of snow, its large walls becoming visible against the snowstorm. Sasuke continued forward, still clutching onto her hand, and Sakura guessed that it was where he lived. They walked in silence, in the bitter cold that shot through the air and into Sakura's body from the boy's touch, until they reached the large, wooden, barred doors.

"Itachi-nii! Open up!"

There was a muffled shuffling heard from behind the door, before the sound of heavy bars screeching against metal were heard. In a few moments a taller man emerged from within the mansion, bearing uncanny resemblance to the little boy before her. His onyx eyes widened at sight at her, and she shivered under his harsh glare.

"Sasuke, who is she?"

"I found her."

There was another harsh gaze thrown her way, before the older man stepped aside and let the two in. His eyebrow rose when he noticed Sasuke's hand removed itself from hers to remove his scarf, a tiny smirk playing on his pale lips.

"What's your name?"

Sakura cowered underneath the coldness she felt emitted from him, almost shivering from the oddness in his eyes, before shaking the feeling off instinctively and standing tall.

"Sakura."

She noted his eyebrow rise with no mention of her last name, but motioned for her to follow soon after. Not finding any other alternatives, she quietly followed behind him, lurking in his shadow in the frozen mansion.

"Itachi-nii! No fair!"

"Ne, Sasuke, if you're slow, you'll lose."

Sakura turned and found Sasuke running towards them, a fierce look of determination present on his beautiful face. She offered a tiny smile, which he shyly returned, but ignored the coldness shooting through her body when he grabbed her tiny hand and held it in his.

"Hmph. You could have said so."

There was coarse chuckling from Itachi, before the creaking of doors cracked the silence. Sasuke pulled Sakura out of Itachi's shadow and to his right side, where the first hints of warmth lingered in the air. Before her Sakura was met with children her age, all causing shivers and an unknown flare to burst through her body. There were three girls, one with two peculiar buns atop her head, one with shimmering blonde hair, and another with short, dark purple hair and pearl eyes. Beside them were three boys, one with pineapple shaped hair, another with spiked blond hair and stunning cerulean eyes, and another with long, dark brown hair and pallid eyes, who closely resembled the girl with the dark purple hair.

"We have a guest."

All of them turned towards her, some glaring at her, while others stared at her with curiosity. It wasn't everyday when there was a guest at their mansion at such random times unannounced. Her body was once again shot with bitter cold and the unknown flare.

"Her name is Sakura."

They all moved towards her to greet her, with suspicious smiles on their faces. Sakura shook all of their hands, bracing herself against the fierce cold emitted from their touch. After they were finished observing her, with an eerie curiosity, they removed themselves from the large hall and went their separate ways.

"They're moving out fast, yeah. They usually don't go until it's after dinner."

All eyes turned towards the blond walking into the hall, hands stuffed in his pockets, while his visible eye looked at Sakura with a twinkling curiosity.

"Well, looks like Sasuke-kun found himself a girlfriend, yeah."

The two children blushed under the uncalled mockery, Sakura silently thanking the new jolt of warmth into her body as Sasuke squeezed her hand.

"No, Deidara! I found her!"

The blond mischievously smiled and shrugged.

"Then she is yours. Hurry along, yeah. Show her around. I'm sure that room next to yours will be put to good use, yeah."

At the command Sasuke took Sakura out of the hall, his perky voice echoing through the hallways and into the large room. Itachi looked to his friend with suspicion, which was immediately returned.

"She looks familiar. There's an inkling about her that I can't quite understand," Itachi said.

Deidara inhaled the air, nearly choking as Sakura's scent went through his nostrils. He quickly rubbed his nose, attempting to get the scent out of his system, the look of irritation and curiosity present in his visible eye.

"Yeah. Does she have a last name?"

"No."

There was silence before the two older men commenced walking out of the large hall, making their way to their rooms, which lay on the top floor.

"Then I suppose we can let her stay awhile," Itachi commented.

Deidara smirked.

"Yeah. Sasuke-kun'll get mad if you just kick her out, yeah."

They coarsely chuckled into the air, continuing their trek to the rooms in comfortable silence. Unbeknownst to them, Sakura shivered as the last echoes of their laughter rang through the air.

A/N:I guess you can call that a teaser to a story I was thinking about writing.
I don't know why I felt like it, but this is an AU. I'm keeping the intention for this secret for now, but feel free to guess! (And no, it does not involve werewolves. But you're on the right track?)

Anywho, if I were to make this a story, there'd be more information instead of this really pointless A/N. XD
Annyywayy, for some crit:
1.Would you be interested at all?
2.Was that too boring of a prologue?

And I guess I should explain why I'm second-thinking adding more to this prologue. Sakura's past is that of a mystery, and it won't be until she's thirteen (in this chapter she is seven), that she'll figure out the huge secret (that you don't know yet!) about Sasuke and the gang. From there the fanfic will jolt into a world of forbidden love, boundaries people can't cross, etc. etc., and at the same time, Sakura's lineage will be revealed.

So please let me know!
Thanks for reading guys!
