Hey everyone, this is chapter four and I wanted to show a little more about their lives as leaders in the underground world, and what was required of them sometimes. I also had to change some numbers because, as leaders, they both have more than what I put down in the past; I also combined chapter one and two because they were so short!

Sakura huffed as she waited impatiently for Kiba to fill up the car for her trip. She wore a simple black sweat suit, not bothering to get dressed up for the journey she was about to take. It was only the two of them in the warehouse at the late hour in the night, but Sakura and Kiba were planned to travel in different directions. Kiba was only aiding his boss in the preparation of her mission. You might be wondering what was Kiba filling the car with for Sakura. It was weed of course. Eighty pounds of the plant to be exact.

As the head of the cartel, Sakura was not required to partake on the traveling of her merchandise. That's what she had Kiba and her other men for. Unfortunately, Sakura was short a man and one of her branches was left unmanaged; her only option was to take on Keito's responsibilities along with her own until she could find a suitable replacement. Ino was in no right frame of mind to take on the job, and it was understandable, but that meant Sakura was left with the dirty work. So Sakura was stuck making a twenty-five mile trip to Keito's main dealer with eighty pounds of weed in a car that was not in the best shape it could be in. It was not how she expected she would be spending her Sunday night.

Kiba threw the last bag in the front seat and dusted his hands off on his pants. He looked up at Sakura and gave her an amused grin. "All done Saks, you're all set to go."

Sakura glanced in the car, not a bit amused at the sight before her. Kiba had to be joking if he thought she was driving that car. Sakura would surely get pulled over as soon as she glided on to a main road. There was a number of things wrong with the car that deemed it unfit to drive by anyone- not only Sakura.

One. There was no room in the car. The front and back seat was filled with the plant; Sakura didn't know how she was supposed to drive the vehicle if she had no place to sit.

Two. It reeked the smell of the plant. Anyone could tell the car contained weed from a mile away due to the great stench it carried with it, and this was only half of Sakura's worries.

Not only was the car not insured but it had fake licences plates, and the back lights were broken. Sakura could not understand why Kiba would give her the worse possible choice of a vehicle when there was countless of different choices in the warehouse.

"Kiba how the fuck am I supposed to drive this piece of shit?" Sakura questioned with annoyance. "I'm going to get arrested for this!"

"Saks relax," Kiba said as he placed his hands on her shoulders, "this is what Keito drove and he never got caught. The trips he used to go on is nothing compared to what you're doing; I promise you'll be fine."

Sakura glanced at the car once again with an uncertainty. If Keito could do it than she shouldn't complain, right?

"Should I just sit on it? It's all over the front seat Kiba." Sakura opened the driver's door the car and motioned to the seat that was preoccupied by the substance already.

Kiba nodded in response and held the door open for his boss as she slipped into the car with an unsure expression.

Sakura sat on the weed as if it was a booster seat but tried to make herself comfortable as possible. Kiba closed the door once she started the car, allowing the engine to roar in the quite warehouse. Kiba patted the car on the hood giving Sakura the signal to take off and get the trip over with.

The nervous pinkette carefully steered the car onto the empty streets of the city, taking extra precaution compared to her usual reckless driving. After several minutes of driving Sakura's nervous jitters ceased to nothing, and she was confident that the trip would go smoothly. That did not last long though as another worry creeped in her head. The rivaling cartel.

Sakura could only think that the other cartel would attack her if they spotted- of smelt the car in her case- on the streets late at night with no sign of some sort of protection. They attacked Keito when he was delivering, she wouldn't doubt it if they did it again. Sakura calmly began to look the glove compartment for some type of form of protection in case the worse happened to her.

"Shit." Sakura shut the compartment with a slam, having no luck in finding anything in there. She steadily steered the car with one hand as she looked for something under her seat with the other.

A smile was brought to the pinkette's face as her hand grasped what she was looking for; under every vehicle her business owned was a crowbar, something that was useful in the circumstances of a fight. Sakura was greatful that one of the first weapons she learned to use was a crowbar, she was not going down without a fight if someone tried to attack her.

Twenty-five miles felt like nothing to Sakura as she realized that she was soon close to her designated spot. She was literally a block away from the designated rendezvous site when the siren and flashing lights of a police car appeared behind her.

"You've got to me fucking kidding me!" Sakura screamed as she banged on the steering wheel in frustration.

Sakura knew that she could not out run the cops in a chase because of the bad shape the car was in, and she unwilling pulled over and slowly came to a stop, extremely pissed off at her current circumstances. She waited for the cops to appear at her window but grew impatient as they did not show their faces right away. Sakura pulled out her phone and automatically began to dial a number, the only person that could get her out of this position. Itachi.

Sakura placed the phone to her ear and waited as it rang. On the third ring a tired voice picked up the phone, obvious that Itachi was sleeping until she called.

"Itachi, I got myself in trouble again." Sakura whispered as she looked in the rear-view mirrors of the car.

"Hime, what happened?"

Sakura looked around at all the weed surrounding her, and it seemed that there was no way she was getting out of this one. "I got pulled over..."

"That's not so ba-"

"The car is not insured, it has a fake licenses plate, the tail lights are broken, and there is eighty pounds of weed in the car."

"Hime are you fucking kidding me?"

If Itachi was asleep before he definitely was not anymore.

"I'm on the corner of fourth avenue and thirty-sixth street, I would really appreciate if you could come and help m-"

"Get out of the car with your hands up!"

"Son of a bitch." Sakura cursed as she closed her eyes for a brief moment. This really was not her night.

Sakura slowly got out of the car with her hands above her head, posing no sign of a threat to the officers behind her. Her eyes were shut, silently praying that Itachi would come in time before she was taken away with handcuffs. Sakura heard footsteps get closer to her, and she also heard the whispers going on between the two cops.

"Turn around Haruno."

Sakura opened her eyes slowly with a suspicion that these cops were not the clean, by-the-book police officers if they knew her name. She turned around, not surprised to find Izumo Kamizuki and Kotetsu Hagne standing before her; two of the most crooked officers there was. Sakura had forgotten that there was so many crooked ones in the force that would bail her out for a little cash, and there was a number of times her men had to pay these two specifically to keep from being taken away in handcuffs. Itachi wasn't the only one that had a role in the world of the underground.

"I'm not surprised to see you out here, we had our suspicions about you since you were a suspect for your parent's death." Izumo said as he eyed the pinkette down. The man Izumo had dark brown eyes with black hair that was naturally slicked down.

"We also aren't stupid like the rest of our co-workers, we know you're the head of all of this," Kotetsu added, motioning to the car, "Itachi can't hide you forever you know?" Similar to his partner, Kotestu had dark brown eyes but his black hair was spiked up instead of slicked down like Izumo.

"It's worked so far," Sakura retaliated with a bitterness in her voice, "how much to keep you two quiet about this?"

The two crooks looked at one another, silently going over their price before answering in unison. "Five grand."

Sakura looked at the two as if they each had two heads, this was not their normal price and she could only take a guess as to why. "Why the fuck would I give you five grand when I know you usually take two and stay shut."

Izumo laughed at the teenaged girl in front of him; she wasn't a fool but they should expect from the leader of a cartel. Sakura, however, was not going to be taken as some childish girl, if they wanted to deal with this in a business manner then she was going to talk to them the way she usually would to others when she took on the role of the leader.

"Do you not realize who you are? We'll be heros for turning in the mysterious blossom leader."

Sakura was surprised to hear them use her code name but she did not allow her face to express it. "I'll give you three."

"Five." Kotetsu argued with the pinkette.

"Two."

"Five."

"One."

"Alright fine, three." Izumo said, not wanting for the pinkette to lower her offer anymore than what she had.

Sakura grinned in a devilish way, "Deal."

Kotetsu shot the girl a glare, "Take our card, contact us in three days with our money or we will have problems. Got it Haruno?"

Sakura sighed and snatched the card from the man's hold. "Got it. Am I free to go now?"

The two police officers did not pay any attention to Sakura as they headed back to their vehicle without answering her question. They got into their car and sped off before Sakura could even enter her own. Sakura let out a tired sigh as she leaned against the car that still contained her merchandise.

"Thank the lord I got two of the worst officers on the force." Sakura mumbled to herself, relieved that she did not find herself in any big trouble.

Sakura was in the process of entering her car once again when a black Lincoln stopped with a screech along the beaten up car. Sakura found herself sighing in a bit of annoyance as a very angry Itachi stomped out of the car.

"What happened?" Itachi said to Sakura, straining to keep himself from yelling at the girl.

"Izumo and Kotetsu, gave them three and they shut up." Sakura answered as she ran her fingers through her hair. "I was lucky this time."

Itachi sat on the hood of the car and shook his head at his princess. "Hime, you really got off easy this time. You're lucky it wasn't Kakashi or Iruka, they would've certainly locked you up in an instant."

"I know but this is only a one time thing, I won't be making trips like this again."

"Good, just please hurry and drop this shit off." Itachi said as he got up off of the car and started to make his way back to his own vehicle.

"I will, thank you Itachi." Sakura called to him as she settled herself down in the driver's seat again.

Sakura slowly took off from the street she was stopped on, and made her way to her destination which was literally a few hundred feet from where she was. She parked the car in front of the building and proceeded to get out. Sakura knocked on the front door of the dango shop and waited a few moment before a larger man came out to greet her.

"You're the replacement for Keito?" The man looked down at the pinkette, obviously surprised to see a petite sixteen-year old girl apart of the underworld of the city.

Sakura nodded in response, "Yeah, for now."

"Alright," the man exhaled audibly and shrugged his shoulders, "is it all there? All eighty pounds?"

"Yeah," Sakura said as she exchanged the keys in her hand with the ones the man was holding, "someone will be here by the end of the week to pick up the money."

"Gotcha. Car is across the street." Was all he said as he got in the car and proceeded to drive to a more private location for the merchandise.

Sakura crossed the street and got into a different car that was a slightly better upgrade compared to the one she drove on the way here. She put the key in the ignition and started the car, pleased to be able to finally go home after a long night.

"He owes me how much?"

Sasuke sighed as Naruto began to ramble about a man who owed him a few hundred dollars compared to the millions he had saved in multiple bank accounts scattered around the world. Naruto had brung he's second-in-command to accompany him to find the man that was "taking him as a joke". The blond leader held a baseball bat in one hand and a container of gasoline in the other, providing the man with different options of abuse. Naruto knew he would pick the beaten with the bat, but he always brung the gasoline just in case.

"...this is just a lesson he needs to learn. There's no possible way he think he can walk all over the leader of the cartel, come-on now. Once he knows I'm no joke, this won't happen again. I think he'll get the message after this." Naruto rambled on as he dragged the baseball bat behind him.

The black-haired male was more level-headed than his companion which was strange since it was usually the other way around, but Sasuke did not find the whole theatrics necessary... especially since in was two o'clock in the fucking morning. Sasuke would have rather enjoyed to be sleeping in his bed instead of roaming the streets looking for this man who insulted Naruto's pride.

"Here it is." Naruto said as he walked up the front steps to an old-looking brick house. The blond teen set the gas can down gently and knocked on the door roughly, waiting for his desired target to answer the door. There was no answer though, Naruto knocked again... and again... and again... and again but there was nothing.

"Well I guess it is time for us to go ho-"

"That's his car over there." Naruto interrupted as he nodded to a decent car parked a few feet down from the house. He picked up the gas can and made his way over to the vehicle at a slow pace. "I'm going to burn this shit."

Sasuke unreluctantly followed Naruto down the stairs. "All I want to do is to go home," he mumbled to himself, "is that too much to fucking ask for?"

Naruto placed the gas can a few feet away from the car and neared closer to it with the bat in his hand. He stood in the hitting position, wound up, and swung at the driver's window, successfully shattering the glass to tiny pieces.

"This will teach him to not fuck with me." Naruto stated angrily as he continued to repeat the action several more times, breaking all the windows and windshields.

He grabbed the gas can and began to pour the gasoline all over the car, and in the vehicle also drenching the leather seats that was inside. Sasuke watched with a bored expression, not bothering to stop his best friend from doing the illegal action; this was only a small addition to the crimes they could possibly be prosecuted on. No biggie.

Naruto took out a box of matches and lighted one without any hesitation. "Sasuke, I think it's time we go..." Naruto said slowly, throwing the match in the car.

The two frends began to walk down the street as if nothing had happened, holding a normal conversation as the car went up in flames behind them. A cry was heard in the distance and Naruto only assumed that they owner of the car saw what had happened.

"I want my fucking money by tomorrow!" The blond yelled viciously, loud enough to be heard from blocks away.

Sasuke sighed, running a hand threw his hair and continued to walk away from the crime scene. This is what they did for a living, there was no way out of it but he all he wanted was some sleep from time to time. That's all he wanted in the world, it truly wasn't a lot to ask for.

Sakura rubbed her eyes tiredly as she continued to drive in the night. She was only five more minutes from her home when her phone began to ring with Ino's name showing up on the screen. Sakura answered the phone and put the call on speaker so she was able to drive still.

"Sakura, where are you?"

Sakura raised an eyebrow in suspicion at her best friend's frantic voice. "I'm on my way home now, I had a delay earlier but everything is alright." Sakura replied, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, it's just Kiba was just telling me how there was an incident on the streets and to tell you to be careful."

"Was it the other guys?"

"I don't know but a car was set on fire thirty-seventh street, no one was in it but still be careful..."

"I was just there and I didn't see anything but I- I'll be home soon... okay... bye." Sakura hung up the phone and decreased her speed as she spotted two figures walking on the sidewalk. She had to squint her eyes to make sure they were not decieving her because she really was seeing Naruto and Sasuke walking the streets at one in the morning. Sakura slowly pulled her car alongside of them and rolled down the window.

"Naruto! Sasuke!" She yelled capturing their attention. "What are you guys doing out here?" She questioned.

Naruto gave the pinkette a tired smile and made his way over to the car with Sasuke following behind. "We wanted to be spontaneous, well I did, so I dragged teme out for a walk. What are you doing out here Sakura-chan?"

Naruto was quick to come up with lie but Sakura was faster than him, and her's was a tad more believable than the blond's.

"My aunt called me, it was an emergency and I had to rush over there. Everything is good now though, I'm heading home now. Do you guys need a ride?"

Before Naruto could even open his mouth Sasuke was in the car and answered the girl with a "hn". Naruto chuckled softly as he entered the passanger's seat, greatful of Sakura's offer also.

"You guys shouldn't be walking to streets this late," Sakura lectured as she put the car in motion, "Konoha is a dangerous place..."

"We know, Sakura-chan, trust me. We definitely know..."

So that's chapter four, they are beginning to encounter each other more and more now. Stick around because this may be leading to their reveal. Review please, it would make me extremely happy.
