After revising chapter five and re-uploading it two times I feel you should be satisfied with it. I hope you enjoy it. Please look back to chapter five to see my changes so you can better understand the story. The changes involved her age and when the nations fell. Also to answer some questions about her status, I wanted to make her more B.A. In my mind (this story) she became ANBU just before the war. Her first ANBU mission was given as Tsunade died. By the way, I will be giving Sakura the ability to use Haku's Demonic Ice Mirrors, I know it's a blood line but I really wanted her to have the ability to manipulate water and wind elements, which slipped right up Haku's alley. I am also going to give her a bit of Sai syndrome.

The team and Neko stood in the training room as Black Canary ran them through their group exercises. She then divided the team into groups of two. Robin and Artemis were up first.
Artemis started by taking the offense, leaving Robin to fend off her punches and kicks. Just when she was about to make an upper cut to the jaw Robin ducked down swiping his leg under hers. She fell, loosing the fight.
The next match was between Kid Flash and Superboy. K.F. had Superboy beat in the speed department while Superboy had K.F. in the strength. Both lacked the ability to outsmart the other like in Artemis and Robins fight so it was brought to a battle of the brawn. Of course Superboy won with a single punch that Wally could not dodge fast enough.
The fight between martian and magician was started after Canary set the rules. M'gann went in with a kick because one of the rules set for this match was no powers. Zatanna ducked under the high flying foot and grabbed it with both hands restricting the other girl to only use her hands until she freed her foot. M.M. went to punch the other girl while Zatanna twisted and got onto her knees, her back facing Miss Martian, and smashed her hands with the martians foot to the ground sending her over the magicians head landing awkwardly on her front side. Zatanna won and Robin congratulated her. Conner went to help Megan up and gave her a nonchalant smile.
Finally it was the new recruit against the Atlantean. "No killing him or seriously injuring/ maiming him," Black Canary said to Neko with distrust laced in her voice.
"I would not dream of it," she responded as coyly as someone with an oriental accent could.
"Good," She said eyeing her wearily, "Go."
Both stood where they were. Neko cocked her head to the left than right, she than took her right hand and put in into a pouch pulling out the little orange book and started reading. "I said go," Black Canary prompted.
"And I am waiting for him to attack," Sakura responded.
"And I am waiting for you to stop reading," Aqualad said.
"The book will not get in the way, I will put it away once you start," She said waving her hand in the air dismissively.
Aqualad ran at her fully intent on removing the book from her possession. She moved so she was behind him, "The first thing I learned as a genin, never let your enemy get behind you," she said pausing for a moment, "If I were my perverted sensei I would use the thousand years of death jutsu, but I really do not want to touch someone I just met there."
Aqualad swirled around to find her still reading, "I thought you would put your book away once I start."
"You attack as if to kill me, and I will put the book away," she said teasingly.
He gave a battle cry and surged forward drawing his "swords" (his water bearers manipulating the water into two sharp points in the shape of swords). She put away the book and grabbed his wrists crossing the "swords" in front of his neck. He made the water dance towards her and she was forced to retreat, not knowing what his water can do. "That is cool," she said in her somewhat accented voice, "Do you want to see what I think is cool?"
She started making rapid hand signs that they could not decipher, "Baku Suishouha," she cried expelling water from her mouth.
The move surprised Aqualad enough for him to momentarily stop all movement. As she went in with her still sheathed sword raised in a way that looked as if she would behead him had the sword been unsheathed, she extended her arm so she could rest the covered blade against the crook of his neck gently, "If this were a real battle you would be dead," she said.
"I know, and now I am happy you are not an enemy," He said slowly.
Black Canary was flabbergasted. How could she, a small pink haired girl, manage to defeat Aqualad, the level-headed calculating leader of the team? She just could not comprehend it. Then again this girl did have the bats worried that she would kill the team, so Black Canary guessed it was reasonable.
The team's reactions were very similar to Black Canary's. Wally's façade expressed what the others thought; his jaw was hanging open revealing his tongue. "That look is flattering," Artemis intoned to Wally.
"Hey!" Wally shouted in protest.
"I am still very confused over their reactions," Sakura said, "I mean, they both like each other but they are acting like four year olds trying to hide their crushes."
At that the whole team, but Artemis and Wally, burst into a flurry of laughter. Artemis and Wally blushed bright red and then looks of anger passed onto their faces after their initial reactions. "What do you mean hot stuff?" Wally asked trying to be flirtatious.
"Well, it's obvious you like her, I mean, you are constantly bickering with her," she said, "It's a lot like Shikamaru, he constantly told the woman he enjoyed the company of troublesome. It was his way of expressing his love."
"That was very deep, and you are a very good fighter," Robin complimented.
