We're about to explode.

(The human world)

He had never thought he would ever get to see her again. She had been gone for so long, and now she was right there in front of him.

He was quite stunned when he saw what she was wearing. The black dress hugged her chest perfectly. He just couldn't believe she was wearing something like that. He had never thought he would get to see her wearing anything else than the white robe he had been so used to seeing her wearing. If it weren't because of her unearthly beauty, he would have said that she looked normal, like a human.

He was so lost in his own thoughts, that he didn't even notice the strange looks he was receiving from Temari and Gaara.

And neither did he notice the slight killing intent that emitted from Gaara.

"Naruto, how do you know her?" Gaara spoke. He had been friends with Naruto for a long time, and he had never heard the blonde idiot mention someone with pink hair.

At the question, Naruto tore his attention away from the pinkette and looked at Gaara. He had completely forgotten that he was there.

"Oh, uh, Sakura was my err, friend and then, uhh" He was unsure of what he should tell them. Did they know what Sakura was?

"Then what?" Temari asked as she eyed the blonde male.

Naruto looked at Sakura again and frowned slightly.

"Then she suddenly just disappeared one day, I haven't seen her in over a year"

Silence followed Naruto's words. All of them were unsure of how much the other person knew about Sakura's true identity.

Finally breaking the silence, Temari readjusted Sakura in her arms.

"I'm gonna take Sakura to her room"

Several hours later, Sakura awoke slowly.

Everything was blurred and she could feel her head slowly begin to ache.

What had happened last night?

She couldn't quite remember. She remembered going with Temari to a club, where she had met two other girls, then she had been dancing…with Zetsu. And then she had been dragged to the bar by Temari where she had gotten some weird looking drink, and everything after that was just a big black hole. How had she gotten home and into her bed?

A groan escaped her lips as she tried to heal the pain in her head but failed. Though she did manage soothe the throbbing pain in her head. Apparently, she couldn't heal whatever it was that was making her head feel like it could explode any second by now.

A wave of nausea hit her full force. She threw of her covers and sprinted towards the bathroom. Just as she reached the toilet and kneeled down, the nauseous feeling became too much, and she proceeded to throw up in the toilet one time, and only a few seconds later she threw up again.

After flushing the toilet, and washing her mouth, she leaned her forehead against the cool tiles on the wall.

It was amazing how good it felt to feel the cool porcelain against her skin.

"For someone who just threw up, you look extremely well"

Opening her eyes and turning her head, Sakura found a smirking Temari standing in the doorframe.

"Temari" She greeted the elder woman with a weak voice.

"I feel terrible" She continued. "What's going on?" The pinkette said as she glanced at Temari.

A chuckle escaped Temari. She had completely forgotten that this was the first time ever Sakura had gotten drunk, and though the former angel had seemed to enjoy herself the other night, she was now experiencing the bad side of alcohol.

"It's called hangovers, Sakura, you better get used to them" Temari said as she smirked when a groan erupted from the sick pinkette.

"I don't think I want to get used to them" Sakura remarked and closed her eyes once again.

Why could she not heal this hangover thing? Life could be so unfair sometimes.

"Come, I got some pain-killers in the kitchen, they'll help"

"But I wanna go check on Sakura-chaaan!" The loud blonde cried out. He hadn't seen his precious Sakura-chan since last night, and he had not even been able to talk to her.

A hard smack was delivered to the blonde's head by a fuming Gaara.

"Owww! Gaara, what was that for?" Naruto wined.

"Be quiet, dope, you'll just wake her up if you keep yelling like that" Normally, Gaara would consider Naruto as his best friend, but sometimes, the loud blonde could be a pain in the ass, specially in the mornings, Gaara was absolutely not a morning person. Besides that, it irked him to see how open Naruto was with his feelings towards Sakura, those two had been friends for a while according to Naruto, and what if Sakura returned those feelings? That thought just didn't sit well with Gaara. He liked the pinkette a lot; she had helped him become the person he was today.

No matter how much he also owned Naruto for also helping him when he had been having a difficult time, there was no way that he would let the blonde get Sakura; not without a fight at least. He needed Sakura more than Naruto did.

Gaara was bought out of his thoughts when the blonde idiot jumped out of the chair he had been sitting on and ran towards the door.

"Sakura-chaaan!" Naruto yelled as he scooped the surprised pinkette into his arms and embraced her in a tight hug.

"N-Naruto!" Sakura stuttered as Naruto held her tightly. She couldn't believe it! Naruto was right here, holding her. She had never imagined seeing him so soon, but she was happy that he was there. Now that she saw him again, she realized how much he had missed him.

And not once did the two friends sense the killing intent that emitted from Gaara, but his sister did.

Temari send her little brother a sharp look. She knew that her brother liked Sakura, but she was not going to let him ruin this heart-warming reunion that Sakura and Naruto was having.

After a moment longer, Sakura and Naruto finally parted, though Naruto didn't let go of Sakura entirely, still holding on to the lower parts of her arms.

Feeling that her brother had endured the lovely reunion long enough, Temari cleared her throat and spoke.

"Let's get some food, I'm starving"

"Yeah! Let's eat!" Naruto pumped one of his fists into the air as he swung the other arm around Sakura's shoulder and lead her towards the large table in the room.

"We have so much to talk about, Sakura-chan!"

The loud sound of Naruto's enthusiastic voice made the throbbing in her head increase, but she ignored it nonetheless. She would endure the pain in her head. She had her Naruto back now, nothing else mattered.

(Hell)

Pein was once again admiring the rain that fell from the sky in his realm through the window in his office.

It frustrated him that he had still not found Sakura.

Could it really be so hard to find just one person?

He had spies all over earth, and none of those had ever managed to find her and bring him to her.

He had gotten leads of her location once or twice before, but every time he arrived at said location; she was nowhere to be found.

But last night, he had received a rather odd tip from one of his spies, Zetsu. It was not a direct location, but it was clear to him, after reading the message from said spy, that Zetsu had found her.

I have the fallen angels location, but I am not able to tell you where it is.

Go to the place where the winds are warm, and you might find her there. But hurry up if you want to find her, if she manages to find out that you know where she is, she will be gone again.

-Zetsu.

So, Zetsu had found her, but… Why could he not give away her location? It was unlike Zetsu, acting like that.

And those warm winds? What could they mean?

The warm winds would have to be a country or city that was warm, and though it excluded a few places, there still were plenty of warm places on earth.

But as Zetsu said, he would have to be careful when searching for her.

Sakura was amazing at sensing other supernatural beings. So every time one of them had been close to finding her, she had run away. So if he wanted to find her, he would have to know exactly where she was.

Apart from looking for Sakura, he was also looking for any indication of where Orochimaru might be and what he was doing, but they were no longer hunting Orochimaru like they had been doing before.

Instead of looking for the repulsive snake, they had focused on finding Sakura.

Besides that, Orochimaru was not theirs to find and kill, I would be up to Sakura to decide what to do with him.

He could not decide if he should go out and look for her or not. A little voice in his head told him that she could come to them when she wanted to, but a louder voice constantly reminded him of how much he missed her.

He watched from the shadows as people rushed right past him, not even once sensing his presence there. Not that he expected them to; they were after all only mere humans, ignorant and dull creatures, living only to die.

For a moment he frowned at himself for thinking about humans that way. 'They don't know any better' he thought to himself. They merely lived the only way they knew.

Normally, he would never have thought like that, it was so unlike him.

But he had changed over time.

Ever since Sakura had disappeared from his life, he had distanced himself from everyone else. He had become so focused in finding her, that at one point, he had not spoken to any other being for over four months. Luckily for him, his friend had pulled him out of the darkness he had fallen into.

And though he was doing better now than before, there was no denying it, Kakashi was absolutely lost without his pink-haired angel by his side.

He had even considered falling himself so he would be able to be with her at all times.

He just wanted her back. He didn't understand why she was hiding from him, he could understand that she didn't want to face any of the demons, but… what was keeping her from seeing him?

One day, he would get the answers to those questions. He just had to find her first.

(Demons and humans)

"Sasuke-kuuun" A high-pitched voice whined in his ear and a soft chest pressed against his own, and he felt the anger rise in him.

Had it been a certain other person who was pressing against him like this, he wouldn't have minded the lease! But as it wasn't that certain other person, it only served to anger and annoy him to no end.

"Get away from me, Karin" He spoke coldly and pushed the eager woman away from him, only to have her pressing herself against him seconds later again.

He gave Karin a cold look, and pushed her away again.

"Where is she, Karin. I know you have seen her. You are lying when you say you haven't" As he spoke, he watched her expression go from luring to angry in less than a second.

And Karin herself felt the anger towards the pink-haired girl more than ever before. Why did she have to have cached her Sasuke-kun's attention. It was always about that dumb little girl. Always. And Karin was getting sick of it.

If she couldn't get Sasuke's attention one way, she would have to try another.

Moving as fast as she possibly could, Karin smashed her lips onto the soft one's of her long-time crush, and for a second, everything around her disappeared, the only thing that mattered was Sasuke.

But then the blissful second ended much too fast.

Sasuke pushed her away.

He looked at her with anger burning in his eyes. It took all his self-control not to burn her to ashes right on the spot.

He whipped his mouth with the sleeve of his black jacket and spat on the ground and looked disgusted at the redheaded woman.

"Don't ever do that again"

"B-but Sasuke-kun" Karin whined as Sasuke rushed past her, not even once looking back at her.

As she watched Sasuke leave, the hatred for Sakura burned even brighter than ever before.

She was much better than Sakura, at lease that's what Karin thought.

As long as Sakura existed, there was no way that Sasuke would ever return her feelings.

Sakura was the only thing that stood between Sasuke and herself.

She was only a mere obstacle, but nonetheless, she was an obstacle that needed to be removed.

She would get Sasuke, no matter what she had to do.

Here it is!

I'm really sorry that I took so long to write this chapter, I've been really busy lately... Also, I must admit, the amount of reviews the last chapter received, didn't exactly do much to make me want to write another chapter as fast as I could have done it! But I did it anyways! Of course I wouldn't give up on this just because of the amount of reviews... buut, I must admit, that the more reviews there are, the more inspired I get :)

But I was very about the reviews I got, so thank-you to: 96bittersweetblackcat, Raiza-chan and FELINEZ!

I hope you liked the chapter!

I don't think any of the angels or demons will find Sakura just yet, maybe two chapters more and then they will! I want Sakura to have some human experiences before they come to help her...

Please review!

Love you all!
