A New Start She Never Wanted
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, I don't speak Spanish and the last time I wrote something of my own characters was when I had eleven fingers. Ha ha.
… and you thought I was joking.

The office to herself didn't seem much different from all the other times she had seen it, no matter how long ago that was. The only particular difference was that the Hokage wasn't a crippled man with a fraying white beard. No. The Hokage sat with her hands folded and her chin resting on top of her interlaced fingers. Windows behind the desk lit a hallow around the buxom blond and a nice glow to the office surrounding her Sakura noticed as team seven showed their respects.
"Sensei." Sakura greeted with a small bow of her own. Straightening her back she rolled her eyes over each surface. Neat and tidy, messy and disorganized. Each surface had been tampered with in a different way, making it obvious as to where Tsunade had been.
"Haruno-chan." The temporary Hokage returned, setting a pile of shuffled papers down on the desk before her.
"You wanted my presence." The girl smiled as she stepped away from the three males behind her. "I cant imagine why though… you should be assigning missions, and keeping the ninja population of the village moving. Fighting evil and all that."
Tsunade's smile melted into pursed lips, "Haruno. Cut the crap. We have three shinobi and one villager witness of your ninja abilities. Because of this you will be instantly taking genin status, accompanying team seven to their mission to mist, and when you return you will participate in an ability evaluation, conducted by me." She lowered her voice to a monotone, "Sakura-chan, I know you could easily be jounin and with work and more training an anbu. You have so much potential and ability… like your father."
Instantly Sakura's green eyes hardened to stone, "Then why is he dead?" She spoke with a hollow voice.
"I am sorry for your lost Sakura-chan, but that is the way of ninja life. At least your father died with honor and respect."
"Honestly not enough respect to be sent aware on a suicide mission, huh Hokage-sama?" She drawled out the last word. Dropping all familiarity with the name.
The buxom blondes breath caught, as the silence in the air tightened uncomfortably. Sakura turned to walk out of the suddenly very cramped office.
Quickly Tsunade gathered her wits, "Wait. You'll need a head band."
"I'll use my fathers." She deadpanned, finally all hints of the perky girl she was ten minutes ago vanished.
"Enough!" The Hokage screamed, "You and I both know that is unacceptable and completely illegal."
Sakura smiled wistfully at the ground, team seven now confused by the conversation lying on an illegal headband. "Ill put a henge on it, eh Sensei? It will be good as new." Looking over her shoulder she stared at the purple diamond in the middle of her oppressors' forehead, "Hopefully I wont end up like him in the end of this story."
Turning around she pushed open the door, "I'll meet the team at eight in the morning, Kakashi-san Don't be late."
With that the door to the office slammed shut, slightly denting the hinges that held the door barely in place.
"What was that about?" Kakashi questioned.
"I am sorry Hatake, that is confidential information." Tsunade sighed, letting out a puff of air between her lips.

"I can't believe her!" Sakura growled, shoving her glowing fists into her opponent. Her brow was covered in sweat and her cheek smeared with blood and dirt.
"I used to trust her." She whispered as she dropped to the floor swinging her leg around as to trip her sensei.
The man bent down, taking her wrists in his hands and kissing the knuckle.
"Now now tenshi. I told you that this would happen."
Sakura sighed as she lowered her hand out of his. Looking up into that vast that was the moon she frowned.
"Their sending me on a mission. A long one to mist."
"I will follow you then, of coarse after I tell leader."
"You can't follow me to mist." Sakura spun around to face him and then gave a pouty 'humph'. "You cant follow me because with Hatake their, he'll sense you. You might not have told me everything, but you told me enough." She raised an eyebrow, "Their probably wont be enough time to train with you anyways."
Itachi smiled as he took a step closer, taking the pink-haired girl into his arms, "Yes, but I don't want you to get rusty. Go on the mission, don't complain, and don't die. That would be bad." With a 'hn' he turned around and disappeared into a cloud of gray smoke.
"Don't die?" Sakura whispered to herself, "I don't know… that's a tall order dealing with these ninja."
