So, this chapter is short,but there's a reason for that. i should probably mention that this is a "dark" chapter ( well, the closest thing i can attempt at dark.. I'm not very good at writing anything but humor, but i tried!)

now, this chapter was inspired by the song A perfect circle Counting Bodies Like Sheep To The Rhythm Of The War Drums, so if you want to go for atmosphere, listen to the song when you read this chapter.

Oh, and i had a review asking if sakura was like Lucy from Elfin lied. now, i personally have never seen Elfin lied, but i i looked it up on youtube, and i guess she is a bit like her, but not really. if you mean in powerwise, then it looked pretty similar to me, but i don't know any of the backround or anything, so i can't really say.

I own neither Naruto, Nor the song, and am making no profit through this work.


It was dusk when It happened. They were sitting there, next to her bed, with Naruto closest. Naruto held her pale hand loosely, while Tsunade filled out some paperwork in a chair in the corner.

The lights for the entire village suddenly cut.

Then, the room started to shake. Slowly, the shaking spread from just the room, to the entire compound, then to the street adjacent. Slowly it spread till the whole village was shaking as if an earth quake was hitting.

They backed up, following standard procedure and braced themselves against doorways and window frames. Then, slowly, through the shaking, her form sat up, not even bothered by the violent movement that had everybody else running for cover.

Then, as if it was coordinated, both sets of eyes zeroed in on her own.

They were red.

As she stood up, they noticed that her hair had, during her slumber replicated the way it was positioned in the profile picture. To her waist in length, covering all but her red eyes.

And she spoke in an intoxicating voice.

"Don't fret precious I'm here"

This, she directed at Naruto.

"Step away from the window, Go back to sleep"

This sentence however was directed towards the adult of the room, and it was a request she could not help but comply too.

The enchanted boy and the intoxicating girl walked slowly through the streets, and she constantly repeated the same fraise, until it had affected every occupant of the village, leaving only her, the enchanted boy and two others. the shaking ended.

"Go back to sleep"

Once she was satisfied with her work, she turned back to the boy once more, and released the enchantment. It was not a fast, quick release, but a slow dazed one, for she had not been controlling him, merely guiding him.

Don't fret precious I'm here,

Safe from pain and truth and choice
And other poison devils
See, they don't give a fuck about you,
Like I do

She held out a hand, and he took it without hesitation, his own eyes now matching hers in colour. At the gates, unnoticed by the slumbering guards, they met with their superiors, whose own eyes also worshiped the colour of crimson, and they fluttered off into the night.

A night of split blood, of pained cries, a night where 'mercy' meant a faster death.

By the time mourn came, the four were resting peacefully in the hospital ( original eye colour intact)and so a content Village awoke; completely unaware of the chaos the newest genin team had reined supreme in when darkness had descended.

Their little secret.


ok! now, before you kill me, yes. they killed, a lot. but, there was a reason. No, they are not evil, No they are not going to kill everyone.NO sakura was not controlling them, they had free will, the eye thing will be explained. No, that is not how sakura will act from now on. i't will all ( hopefully) be explained in future chapters.

Ok, moving on, this may be narcissistic of me, but
