Clashing Personalities
Seventeen
Sunset and nightfall – they are the same thing, are they not? For Sakura, to be sitting under a large tree in her backyard, her gaze focuses on the moon that hovers so clearly above. She sits there, the grass cool against the back of her legs, and sighs.
The Akatsuki – who are they really? That is a question that needs an honest answer.
People fear them. Others avoid them like they are the plague. Yet, with her few experiences with them she can say that they are alright. Rough around the edges, most certainty. She cannot deny that.
Sweet in their own way – Tobi is, she knows that. Deidara and Sasori, they express their emotions in their art. She already has a few drawings from them both.
She sees Deidara after school from time to time – he's usually with Sasori or Itachi…or, if fortune and karma is feeling cruel, Tobi will be there.
"Sakura," the pink-haired female turns, eyes landing on her mother, and she replies, "Hai?"
"Come inside before you catch your death."
Catch her death? That, she fears, is too late to avoid. For, if rumors are correct, she has already sunk too far to be saved.
The Akatsuki…
The pink-haired female rises to her feet and enters her home with little thought to her robotic-like emotions. Her mind plays over the events since the first day. She recalls each meeting with the various Akatsuki that she has met to this point. From what Naruto said – there are others she has yet to meet. He also verbalized his desire for her to keep her distance from them. One already ruined his friend's life, Sasuke.
Itachi and Sasuke…it is hard for her to believe that they are related. Both are calm and quiet, both are antisocial, but the way they display themselves is different in many ways.
Itachi: he is quiet, thoughtful, and balanced.
Sasuke, the younger brother: He is moody, temperamental, and ready to burst from the seams.
And now she can only ask herself this: What happened?
I hope you enjoyed it.
Please Review.
