Thank you for taking the time to read chapter one and continuing to chapter two. please enjoy. I know Sasori still has his personality but I didn't want to make Sakura an exact replica of him. She was created by another puppet master whom changed her up a bit. I don't want them to be identical, and I don't want Sakura's personality or emotions in; to increase the 'puppet' like qualities the puppet master 'gave' her

Porcelain Sakura Doll

Chapter Two

~Her Reason~

I, ilovetimbits do not own Naurto.

"Whats a pretty girl like you need to changer her identity for?" The flirt didn't affect her at all, this guy was known for creating good fake ID and papers. She has decided to go to Tea. She didn't need supplies; no need to eat, no need to sleep, no need for weapons, she was a walking weapon in herself and she couldn't enjoy the pleasantries of eat and sleep. What she did need to do is learn to control herself properly, so far she only knew how to pull the spear out of her palms and walk.

She just stared expressionlessly "Why do you sell fake ID"

He grinned "No problem" he left coming back with fake paper's "Come back in a few day's, I'll have the rest" nodding her head; which required her to control with chakra, left to practice.

Was she immortal? No, the core, the thing, that was her, the only human thing left in her, that thing could kill her, end her 'life'. Was she like Sasori unable to feel pain?She was glad she was able to escape that man she didn't get to look at her 'new' body yet, not that she was angered, no curious? No she didn't feel any of that she simply just wanted to see. Why was this so confusing? She tried to will herself to think of other things, not what she used to be, but she couldn't, her mind just couldn't help but remind her of all the things she would've felt.

It took her about twenty minutes to reach that village. She's never walked so slow in her life it should have taken her five minutes in the least, but she was still trying to get used to moving the body on her own will. No chakra strings, just using her own chakra supply. Walking on, a senbon lodged into her body. She had to get used to reacting on her own again without feel she'll have to listen and see rather than taste,smell and touch. She turned to the source they stepped out she held her fingers out and the senbon shot from her finger tips they didn't expect that at all. the poison was in them all. She absorbed the chakra out of the pained shinobi till they where nearly empty.

Her eyes widened it was as if she could feel every inch of her body not fully but most, she wiggled her finger's, something she couldn't do before. She started doing stretching poses to see what she could do, she knew she was slow. Perhaps the more chakra she had the more flexible she could be with her movement more fluid. She sat beside the still conscious bodies that where slowly dieing she didn't feel a thing towards that, she was too busy trying to figure her own body out. She thought about every single weapon in her body, and the chakra absorption. The man's plan was to make her a living puppet, a self controlling puppet, though he could not perfect it like Sasori's, he had the chakra absorption. She could absorb the chakra and hold it within her she was almost a chakra container.

Her mind went back onto how slow she was, she remembered when he made her fly. She was able to move faster then but he had chakra strings onto her. The wind scrolls, her calves had those scrolls in them. If she applied small chakra jumping from tree to tree as regular, and add the wind from her feet, she should be able to go relatively fast as long as she jumped or had air. The wind can do the rest from there, her only problem was trying to jump. First was crawling, then walking,and then killing the puppet master. Now it's trying to jump. She bent her knees and lifted, her feet didn't lift off the ground, it truly was difficult with no feeling. She tried again, she had no muscles she used her body frame and tried again she succeed into a hop, she continued trying again, getting higher each time till she could finally jump on the lowest tree branch.

She jumped from branch to branch when she activated the wind scrolls her leaps lasted much further. She only touched the branches twice in what would have been five leaps, the scroll made her go fast. she kept her eye's pealed as to not smash into a tree, last thing she would need was trying to reassemble herself. She went at a high-speed getting used to it, she continued now as if it was second nature heading to Tea. At her new rate of speed she smacked into someone her chakra was completely concealed however she continued on feeling nothing. she felt chakra behind her following her fast, fast enough to catch up she ignored it going faster.

"What the fuck was that?" Hidan cursed popped his shoulder back into place. The black blurb that was so fast it bumped him they didn't even sense it and now it was long gone.

"Lets report that to Pein"

"Why the fuck? Just over that?"

"Whatever it was it broke your arm easily"

"pshh"

She was off in Tea in an empty vacant place, though her sense of touch,taste and smell where gone her chakra sense was sharper then she ever has before. she sat and really though about what she could actually do with her body, remembering what the puppeteer used her for, she knows and she'll go in order from head to toe. She could blow out poisonous gas it was viewable purple gas, branched off Sasori's however not as powerful. Her lips where poisonous though she wasn't going to be kissing anyone any time soon that would be pointless... she blinked she sounded like Sasori for a moment there.

Her biceps had no weapons in them probably had the channels of the chakra and poison. She took her forearm off she looked to where her elbow would be she had ball joins the line almost invisible when her arm was connected. She had a tato (half katana) in her elbow she looked into her forearm she could see the two cord's the one for her chakra and the one for her poison they looked like veins. There was also three cylinder's in her arms connecting to the two jets and iron sand. She slowly placed the forearm close to her bicep and watched as the cords reconnected flowing again.

She opened her palm there was three different things; Two tube's for the water and fire scrolls which it rotated to the tube that held the iron sand, meaning her body could work with magnetism. Then she had a seal on her wrist where the chained spear came out she shot it out it didn't go to far cause it was heavy the whip seemed to stretch about twenty feet.

She brought her attention to her lower back she had one compartments that held the cherry blossoms. In her upper back was six blade's that looked like spider legs. They where wooden ball point arms with a large blade attached to each arm. She was looking at the core, it was on her right side rather then her left meaning if an enemy did think to attack the heart it wouldn't kill her or give her core away..clever on the puppeteers part. Also it didn't stick out like Sasori's because where his chest was flat her's...weren't the core was shaped to fit within the breast.

She looked at her legs they had no weapons in them her calves however stored the wind scrolls within them allowing her such speed. She stood up she was very dangerous, she could control sand like Gaara have an ultimate defence just like his, possibly stronger due to the fact it's metal. She has poison that coated all her weapons even the senbon in her fingertips. She was practically immortal no feeling of pain, no need to eat, no need to sleep. She was a consistent weapon that's limitations are the chakra. She was all this but she had no feeling, no feeling to do such things. Thinking more about that she realized she could now do thing she would never be able to do before, stronger now. She stood up and headed to tea her plan set in mind.

She stole the chakra from a simple citizen waking by, she didn't kill the woman, just knocked her out. She completely masked all the chakra but that one as she put the female's clothing on her, she hid her cloak in a tree. She gave the guard the ID and paper's they let in her in without a second glance due to the villager's chakra she had. Walking in she bought the necessary scrolls to refill leaving the village back to her cloak. She secured the new wind scrolls in her calves, and put the rest in another scroll which she placed in the empty compartment in her chest.

Entering another small village, she bought a bingo book. She didn't need to hide her identity as this village wouldn't attack her unless she attacked first. She sat reading the little book she would need money and a client.

"ahhh!" She glanced to her left to see a family, Rouge nin killing civilians she didn't feel anything towards it nothing. She glanced back to her book then she thought, she would have done something, she would have stopped them and that's exactly what she'll do.

"This village is a little low on their tax huh shoji?!"

"Correct! I say we take their women then kill them after" The mother whimpered as he lifted her by her hair.

Her husband was on the ground under the other guys foot "No please! Ill get your money, I will!"

"No, you said that last time, we still have your daughter that you sold to us. We where generous, we could have taken her with no trade but we felt nice and took some off your tax, but now you're in debt again"

The villagers looked at the man he was in his fifties his wife slightly younger they where the leader's of this village. They really tried, tried hard to provide the money these people asked for. "Anyways back to business, if you don't want your families killed walk forward. Make this easy for all of us" the man grinned

"We promise not to be rough" He was laughing at his own joke but he was cut off. looking down to his stomach, the villager's eyes followed. A thin spear was thrust-ed in his stomach blood trickled from the tip as well as purple liquid. They looked to the person behind him revealing a female, her small frame hidden by the cloak however her curves noticeable enough to identify her gender.

The man slumped to the ground after the chakra was drained out of him. His partner finally snapped into reality "You bitch!who do you think you are!" He only saw her lower face and shadowed her eyes. She pulled the spear out and turned to him he jumped back watching her, her arms where hidden in the sleeves she was holding the small spear.

She made jerky movements there was a chain coming from the spear meaning she could grab it back if it where knocked out of her hand "What's your name!?, Who are you!?"

She didn't answer. She so far only knew how to call out the two spears, and use the wind scrolls as well as the senbon needles in her finger tips. She lifted her left arm and held the spear to the side, he ran forward she swiped aimlessly with the spear to distract him then the senbons came out two of them hit him the rest missed when he last second dodged.

"Is that the best you got!?" still not responding it angered him, her lips didn't open once "WELL!?" he yelled. She stepped back out of her position and stood straight there was a click sound but he didn't hear it. She could hear the villager's whispering though they where very far, where a human ear couldn't pick up, she could.

"Who is she?"

"I don't know, but don't expect her to help, probably wants something in return"

The rouge ninja ran at her, tired of waiting he pulled out the kunai and threw it at her hoping to distract her. Pulling out his katana she deflected his kunai with her own he smirked as he brought his katana down at her in a swing. He even battle cried. His eyes widened as he looked to her, but her face was shaded. She stopped the katana in her hand, it should be cutting through her hand! Her head turned to him her hand went on his back gently then a searing pain went through him he looked at his chest to see the spear just poking out bloodied and poisoned.

He fell he gripped her cloak the looked down at him she felt absolutely nothing "My b-boss he'll get you! he will!"

"Who" His eyes widened at her voice, no tone not even a question more a statement, but her voice sounded soft and feminine not matching at all what she has just done.

He fell on his shoulder "Hiroshi...he you..." she cut him off draining his chakra ,the spear retracted right back in her palm. She took the kunai off him, and whatever else he had,that she could probably sell or use for herself. She took his weapon pouch and headband he was from no village it was a headband with a symbol on it. She took the other guys possessions and his bag putting it over her shoulder she looked to the villager's and walked up to them, they backed up and flinched so she stopped advancing. "Do any of you know where Hoshi is" they gaped

"Do you plan on going to him!?" She nodded then asked "why" They glanced at each other then to her "You must be new, He's ten times tougher then the two you took out, he'll kill you easy!" someone elbowed him. "Where may I find him" they looked back to her "North, his base is up north from here" she gave a nod and walked away. She looked at the bingo book she saw the man's name there, putting the book away in her new bag, she continued on north to find the base.

Nearing the entrance she looked to the door, it was metal. she reading her fist building chakra in it she punched the door and it broke in half falling off the huge hinges. Guards came after her she used the senbon, she pulled out two container's and threw them over their heads, the container's opened shooting poisoned senbons, a majority of them getting hit. She walked over the dying bodies, she still had many abilities. She drained them of their chakra she was full and was able to walk more like a human rather then a puppet.

She walked down the halls practising, moving her individual finger's, it was like chakra control, she needed to add precise chakra at the right location. she continued down the hall into the next room with double doors, easily dodging some traps or she set them and they just imbedded into her wooden body. She was stopped by two guards "Who the hell are you!" she didn't answer she opened her mouth slightly. They waited for her to talk wondering why it took so long then the gas came out ,they quickly covered their mouths with their clothing.

She walked through the double doors holding the two chocking men by their neck, she saw the leader standing there in position. Draining the chakra out of the two she dropped them to the ground, they where choking trying to catch their breath from the previous grip but the poison was eating at their throat "You who the hell are you!? Do you know who your dealing with?!"

She didn't answer she put her two hands in front of her a click was heard and the iron sand seeped out floating in the air around her, she lowered her hands when it all emptied out. The guy stepped back not knowing what the sand was, she formed them into sharp spikes there was about hundreds of long senbon like spikes, five stayed by her the rest spread all around the guy no matter where he went he would die.

"what the hell is this!?" she made the sand spikes to circle around him fast, she let the sand drop to be grains she swirled it on the ground "You playing around with me aren't you?" she didn't respond just watched as the sand commanded to her will. He ran forward at her taking advantage of the grained sand , but tripped as the sand clamped around his leg then swarmed his body hardening into a metal box. The sand did her will as she made the sand squeeze him, the sand was a smooth solid, she pulled it back to reveal the dead body it fell to the ground bones sticking out and body disfigured bruises and blood swarmed the heap of flesh.

She took the mangled body and left.

She walked into a village that was run by Orochimaru she summoned the two spears from her palms she attacked killing many with it she mixed the poison with the wind from her feet and created gas releasing it.

she used the iron sand in her punches taking the structure's down with ease.

"Hello""

She turned around to see a man he had white hair and round glasses she looked at him identifying him as Kabuto, Orochimaru's right hand man(bitch), the seal burned her slightly. Gliding to him in blinding speed thanks to the chakra and the wind at her feet, she punched him with the iron sand that was inside her fist. He went flying and she caught up behind him, his eyes widened at this new enemy. For him it was frightening how faintly recognizable the chakra was, a hand gripped around his neck from behind she could have sent senbon in his neck or simply squeeze, but she threw him away he went flying through buildings.

She walked up to him he went to scalpel her she dodged it and flicked her wrist not to give away, not letting him know she's puppet. "Who are you?" She didn't say anything just analyzed his moves and attacks. She didn't use any hand signs, she let the fire scroll go lose from her back the jet came from her palms Kabuto eyes winded either he needed new glasses or this person was very powerful to not use jutsu signs.

"Who are you?!" He hissed seriously now, his left side of his body was badly burned from just being grazed she landed and stood there

"You know me, but that doesn't matter" The voice was a females who was this person? She glided towards him again at high speed, he took his chakra scalpel and attacked her but she was fast and she was able to stop herself from falling mid fall, reacting much faster than any normal ninja it was impossible, defied the laws of gravity. She threw senbon needles at him of which where cloaked in poison he dodged them all he flipping back straightened his glasses and left ,yes he ran. He rushed through the branches looking behind him suddenly that chakra whizzed by him in very high speed he ran right into her punch sent him flying back through a couple tree's.

She walked up to him she was so powerful it was...different, never could she imagine to do such damage to him. She knew he was someone to be wary of she walked off on him. She didn't know what to do, maybe she could help as many people as she could, get stronger, protect Konoha from a distance? She could do both right? Maybe she could force Sasuke back to Konoha, this time she could do it, that's what her whole life was dependant on right? Before, that's all she cared about, maybe she should for Naruto's sake. Sasuke's always follows his brother and if Naruto runs into Akatsuki no doubt they'd kill him, she'd have to just protect him from a distance.

She was still getting used to her body, empty how could Sasori want this? unless he was always lonely and it was no different then before. To bad he was dead and then she'd ask what to do. The puppet master whom changed her burned the scrolls, to ensure that she couldn't steal them. She continued on she didn't have unlimited chakra supply but she was able to steal some from other people.

she still had yet to discover what the blossoms do.

...Orochimaru's base somewhere...

"Orochimaru-sama our village (insert insignificant village here)is destroyed all the nin there are dead"

"I don't care about the village but you where unable to stop it, who attacked us?" Orochimaru was with Sasuke who was ignoring Kabuto

"She was too powerful, beyond comprehension, fast...Orochimaru" Kabuto said seriously trying to get his master's attention with out the -sama at the end. Orochimaru looked at him uncaring but still interested in what got him wild up. He looked dirty bruised and badly burned you could recognize his left side Sasuke also looked as well.

"Orochimaru-sama it was a very powerful ninja" He said seriously

Orochimaru rose an eyebrow

Kabuto nodded Sasuke scoffed Orochimaru looked at his left hand man(bitch)."Want to meet him Sasuke-kun?" Orochimaru chided

"Hn" Sasuke walked away.

One week later...

Sitting in the tree resting against it she watched team seven do their mission. She knew the regular routine, two month search and rescue. It's been six months and they probably presumed her dead, she watched as they where obtaining a scroll. She was a bit like Sai but, he didn't know the emotions she did, just didn't have the feeling behind it. She could smile and frown, hell even cry, well maybe not cry seeing as she cant produce water from her eyes but there would be no feeling behind it. She knew when and why you'd do it, but the feeling behind it was not there, she couldn't feel the happiness behind the smile, the hurt from fighting. She watched them fight the ninja she was silently watching chakra fully hidden she did feel powerful, she couldn't be happy or sad that she was immortal. She could live forever but that means outliving Naruto, her friends. she'd be immortal, out live them and not feel a thing.

She was still human inside, the core proved this, right? She would find a way, maybe the Akatsuki but they where the last thing she was going to check. The seal that held her spirit would help to. She left them and sped down the forest at high speed she was going to get a bingo book distract herself with something to do. Arriving to the mist relevantly fast, she bought the bingo book and a few scrolls, she needed a hobby of some sort she wasn't going to make puppets, that wasn't something that interested her. She needed to learn more about puppets she didn't know if Konoha would accept her, would they look at her the same? she knew if she was Kunkoro would help...maybe. She bought many scrolls on puppets but the more advanced ones where sold in Suna she'd rather not risk going there.

She sat down in the tree reading them, they where helpful but not fully. They provided information on puppets but not living puppets she would literally shed no more tears. Her seal burned again. She jumped down continuing to think there was no living puppet scrolls, they wouldn't just be around. Sasori was the only one able to do this, and he was dead. She looked at the bingo book sitting when two kunai lodged into her back. she looked over her shoulder to see Orochimaru and Sasuke she stood up on her feet and took the kunai out of her back she dropped it to the ground "hello " Orochimaru hissed.

"What do you want?" her voice emotionless staring at Orochimaru.

"I wanted to test you with Sssasssuke-kun" he slurred the 'S' like a snake. She glanced at him her seal burned again. Sasuke was unimpressed.

"why do you need to do that" She didn't even glance at Sasuke just looked to Orochimaru.

"cause you destroyed my village-

"-and you don't believe that I was capable of such destruction?"she paused "that's,... understandable" she looked at him his tongue licking his lips (and chin). She got into position which for her was standing still Sasuke didn't even bother "Your going to underestimate me" she spoke simply to Sasuke whom just huffed. She darted towards him at fast speed using the wind and chakra. His eyes widened and he activated the sharigan. She punched the ground with her iron fist of sand destroying the ground in a large radius also hitting Orochimaru they both tripped on the ground. She turned her head to where he was his sharigan activated "Uchiha needs his gekki to attack me" she meant it as a question but couldn't get the tone, the voice to do so. She was in front of him he jumped away he taking his katana out, she leaped at him pulling her two spears out soaked with poison.

They battled with the katana she was fast and forceful he stared at her only her lower face visible she was hovering slightly, gliding almost he couldn't understand it, how she was so powerful? blossoms came out from under her cloak swarming around turning sharp, piercing the ground where he last stepped. He was dodging both tato and blossom petals coming close to smack backwards into a tree, he darted to the left quickly she cut the tree in half where he was. She stood up out of stance and turned to him the spear's disappeared back into her cloak in the sleeves. He glared at her beside Orochimaru she turned her attention to Orochimaru. "hmm " the snake Sanin analyzed licking his face (not his face but basically) She just stood there watching she didn't want to expose herself as a puppet, if they didn't notice maybe she could go to Konoha, she only needed to cover up.

She turned her back to them, she watched them over her shoulder then she was off, too fast to catch up to. On her way she saw rouge ninja harassing a village woman she landed right in between the woman and the men. "Who do you thi-" she shot senbon at them, they dodged it throwing their own senbon. She didn't dodge taking the hit so the woman behind her wouldn't get hit, she took them out and threw them back.

She sent the poison blossoms at them adding the wind to turn it to gas. They fell to the ground choking she walked up to them she touched them with her hand the poison seeped through the senbons spikes in her finger tips. She started absorbing their chakra into her body till they where on the verge of empty she turned to the woman whom stared "You should have an escort" The woman nodded "w-well I didn't have the money to hire one"

Sakura looked at her "Want me to."

The woman stared shocked "I er yes... please." Sakura walked beside the woman to her destination. she didn't feel happy like she would have before but she knew she would have been so she smiled.

The woman stared the smile was fake and kind of creepy, the girls face however, was kind looking, her lips coated with a cherry pink lipstick it was a light pink her face was flawless. Sakura noticed the female staring at her she smiled to her the woman smiled back awkwardly. She looked back ahead it took a lot to control such small pieces to control the face was harder to show the emotion she wanted.

They entered the gates to the village, the woman walked in "Um do you want some tea?"

"No thank you."

A guard came staring at Sakura uneasy "Miss, what are you doing out without escort?" The woman whom she escorted looked down sheepishly.

"W-Well I needed some herbs for my tea."

"You could have got hurt." He said worriedly.

"I know but she helped me." She motioned to Sakura whom just stared expressionlessly

The man looked at her staring at her face examining it, the female was ninja but had flawless skin "I- well, we must thank you she's the elder's daughter" Sakura looked at her she didn't know but she kind of didn't care either.

"Come please accept our thanks" Sakura stared expressionlessly but then smiled "OK" the man looked at her suspiciously, Sakura decided not to try smiling anymore. The woman pulled her hand leading her through the village earning some stares, until they entered a cafe. She heard the woman talk, her tone soft, happy and caring "Hey, if you don't have a place to stay you could sleep here the night" Sakura stared at her she doesn't sleep even if she wanted to "No thank you, I'm fine" Sakura needed to work on her vocals as well because she sounded like a robot so badly right now. She needed to work on her pitch put fake feeling behind the voice.

"I'll be fine"She said tried again trying to get a softer tone

The woman smiled at her "please I insist"

Sakura nodded maintaining the tone since it seemed to be fine and just taking the offer "Thank you, very much"

"Want some coffee?"

Sakura looked at her and the tea cup "I don't drink coffee"

The woman just nodded and went about her business the guard sat across from Sakura "So where you from?" She looked at the man who was staring intently into her face, it didn't bother her she didn't feel awkward or embarrassed. She knew she would never feel these feelings though, but he may find out she's not human so she cleared her throat to let him know "I'm from a remote village"

He blushed embarrassed. She praised herself, she was doing better, maybe she could go back to Konoha, even if it's only for awhile. Blushing, would she ever be able to that again? It was so hard to even smile to control all the small parts producing tears was out of the question and her skin wont ever change colours unless she changes it with special paint so no blushing will never happen either. The girl sat down with them "I'll show you the apartment if your ready?" Sakura nodded and followed the girl to the apartment which was paid for. The woman did a small tour of the two room apartment.

"See you tomorrow" Sakura nodded as the door shut behind the girl. She locked the door and laid on the bed staring at the ceiling. She needed to practice her social emotions and her voice then she could go back to Konoha maybe they'll never find- no she couldn't hide the fact she was a puppet. How do you hide the fact you can't sleep eat or age? You can't, at least the ageing part. Could she hide her identity forever? No, she couldn't. She wasn't going back to Konoha, she couldn't, they'd notice the difference her emotions where so easily revealed and then suddenly she was less emotional? they'd notice the difference.

She also couldn't hide her body from them forever Naruto would most likely notice right away. She took her cloak off to reveal herself in the leggings and fishnet with the sash bra. The leggings covered her knee joints. The fishnet showed her toned stomach but not lines to the compartment her elbows had the joints. She knew how to add the content to herself now but she didn't know what to do with the wood she didn't want to do anything in case she was just a core on the ground. She sat on the bed removing her arm from her shoulder pulling it apart, the hand came off revealing the metal wire type rope. It looked like Sasori's from his stomach but probably only twenty feet of rope and thinner with a poisoned spike on the end.

She refilled her hand with the poison and attached it back on she did the same process with her other arm she heard a noise or a gasp. She opened the window and the guard was standing there staring wide-eyed "Y-You're t-that weapon!" The same man from the cafe and gate was about to run away but the metal rope caught him quickly. She killed the man and threw the body on the bed .Her seal burned. She needed to escape now. Tousling the bedding and the man, it now seemed that he tried to rape her and she killed him. She attached her hand and put her cloak on grabbing everything sure to leave no evidence. She absorbed his chakra and flew out the door landing every two hundred feet with the wind in her heels. She was followed but then they gave up on her she continued at high speed a blurb in the forest.

Temari heard from Ino that Sakura was KIA, so with permission from her Kazekage, her brother she left to Konoha to visit her grave. They didn't have her body, but she thought she should at least do something. They weren't close but she has been apart of the rescue team that saved her brother Gaara. As well, she was the one whom saved Kunkoro from the poisoning and killed Sasori. She wasn't that strong but pretty decent for a Konoha nin. Though without being said she wasn't very close to Sakura she said 'Hi' once in awhile and talked a bit but not really a close friendship. She once remembered Sakura as the pink-haired girl whom had a large fascination for her teammate, even jumping in front of her teammate to stop Gaara, that took balls. She remembers that day clear as day she actually jumped in front of him while he was transformed.

Then she later comes and saves Kunkoro from the poison and made an antidote where their medic's could not. sure she wasn't close to Sakura, but seeing as she saved her brother and assisted with the retrieval mission for Gaara, it'd only be right to pay her grave a visit. She was sitting atop her fan flying through the tree's heading to the just viable Konoha gates, she had another mission as well a 'while you're there' type thing. Gaara wanted her to drop some documents off for Tsunadae. Poor Naruto, so now both his teammates aren't in the picture? She didn't understand the whole team thing when they where younger it was just Gaara and they took the scraps. But the kid Naruto took it to a whole new level treating them like siblings...like how siblings should be. He talked to Gaara about it and it changed him a bit, not a lot, the village making him a Kazekage helped and the retrieval mission when he realized just how much he meant to people he's changed. And it was all because of the knuckle head Naruto.

The poor thing the Uchiha was till alive but she didn't trust him, back in the chonin exams that kid was so dark and dumb can she say. He actually thought he could take on Gaara, sure he got a hit but that was it Gaara snapped and could have killed him if Sakura hadn't jumped in the way the bastard probably didn't even thank her. Did Sakura not realize how dangerous her teammate was? That he didn't care he was blood thirty just as Gaara was? She was too emotionally driven how did she become an anbu? She remembers when Sakura came to Suna she look professional and legitimate in her anbu uniform her face was still with emotion as she gave Gaara Tsunadae's message. That was the last time she's seen her. The anbu job was probably too hard on her, she didn't want to think of Sakura as weak but not very strong either. She was only strong enough to defeat Sasori and in the medical field that's where she prospered.

She showed her paper's to the gate guards and walked to the Kage tower she walked on the regular hustle and bustle of civilians around her but when she entered the office..it was different. Tsunadae looked like herself but there was bags under her eyes. Tsunadae listened to her as she made her report and just wrote down whatever she needed. Temari readied herself for this, for what she'd get as a response but she needed to ask "Tsunadae, would it be alright if i visit Sakura's grave?" The big busted woman looked down at her desk silent but nodded "of course, it's the one by the cherry tree, the only one" Temari nodded frowning for the woman in front of her Sakura was after all her student. She must have taught her many things. When given the dismissal she left the building and looked for the tree.
