AUTHOR'S NOTE: The time skip has taken place in the manga(and soon if not already, in the anime). Let us begin Saga 2!
Disclaimers: I do not own Naruto/Boruto.
Birth of a Lord: Saga 2
Sarada's jacket slumped across her slightly bare shoulders. Her glasses were tilt to the side, hair still short yet longer and jet black like her father's, but she had two new accessories to her wardrobe: earrings of that of her clan, followed by a whole new outfit given her mature age: including short shorts and kunoichi open toe boots with socks mid knee in length.
Over looking the downtown area of the city, Sarada plopped herself on a bench, one arm resting on the back board. She leaned her head back and looked up toward the cheerful blue sky. How so much had changed in three to four years...so much.
It was then she truly understood what her father had gone through when he had went rouge, when Konoha was willing to turn their backs to him. She looked up to the Lord Seventh, and she scuffed at Lord Eight, Konohamaru, for not listening, refusing to see what the Ostuski was doing to their minds. Even Mitsuki...but not Himawari...she still had hope and she, she was becoming strong. It frightened Sarada to think it may be Hima in the end who fights Boruto and Kawaki...
She bowed her head looking down in her lap, another headache. It was that quarter of the year. Thank Kami she was no longer 12 or 14 dealing with it once a month. Now only four times a year.
"Tsk," she fumbled around trying to find the bottle in her small knap bag. When she felt it and pulled it out, it was empty. "Fuck..."
Sarada had some what of an attitude but most teenage girls did, but most teenage girls didn't dream to become the Hokage. Most teenage girls didn't lose the said inspiration of wanting to become Hokage. Most teenage girls didn't lose their closet friend to a foreign alien entity set to destroy the chakra within their veins.
Still, it was no problem, she would simply go to Hinata-oh, Hinata was thought to be dead like Naruto. There was just no way Boruto would kill his parents...maybe Ino...maybe Ino had pills.
The bench creaked as she adjusted herself to get up, only to have Moegi sit down next to her, wiping her forehead of sweat.
"Ooo, you kids sure are fast. Able to keep up with us now." She smiled, gleeful but Moegi was disappointed to look at Sarada and not see a smile. When had Sarada smile since Boruto left? Really...when did she ever smile? "Hmm."
Sarada raised an eyebrow.
"So much has changed since I was a kid. Konoha was just a village. Now...its a city with big city problems." She paused for a moment.
"Do you have any pills, Moegi?"
Moegi shook her head, the wind rustling by.
"But you and Hanabi-"
A slight blush came to Moegi, a small bead of sweat appeared on her face. "We haven't been like that for years, Sarada...also, Hanabi is a lord now and she's married."
She had forgotten Hanabi had married. Sarada wanted to ask if there was someone else but she judged the face of Moegi, and yes, there was.
"Sarada, Sakura went to Karin because of those pills and the Orochimaru Women. They were becoming aggressive the longer they went without sex; ironically, the pills suppressed it yet when it would appear in the quarter of the month, the desire would be even stronger-"
"Mpf-"
"I'm serious, Sarada!"
The Uchiha snapped her neck to Moegi, the sternness in the jonin's voice broke and was unusual. Her orange eyebrows furrowed for just a moment then eased up.
"You're not of the rank yet. Maybe you want to stay a genin and be awarded with the Hokage status like Naruto." Another pause. "Maybe I should have done that. I don't like working rape cases."
Her dark eyes became wide at Moegi's words. The city...they had those...?
"Sarada, those pills make you want it even more. At least wait until your mother comes back and talk to her about it."
Sarada stood up. "There are more important matters, Moegi, besides my cock."
Moegi shook her head, disappointed in Sarada's stubbornness. "I'd hate to work a case where you rap-"
Smack!
Her hand was held up as she caught Sarada's fist, the two young women looking one another in the eye as Sarada had grown quite tall within the years.
Sarada snatched her fist away, disgusted with Moegi's accusation. She'd talk to Ino instead.
Ino pushed herself away from the computers and machines in the sensory lab. Her brain was pounding yet there was still so much they needed to do, but she needed to rest and plus she wanted to check on the flower shop.
The light flickered on in a small room with natural light filled with dozens and dozens of Sakura flowers. It made Ino content and ease to be surrounded by flowers that held the name of the woman she loved. Apart of her was happy when Hinata was said to be dead but then that meant Himawari, Naruko, and Sasami were all some what bastards.
Ring, ring
The doors to her shop opened, she thought she had locked them behind her, wanting the store to stay closed for the evening.
Ino walked around the front check out to see Sarada, much older, standing before her. They looked at one another, the young woman's face quite intimidating.
"Do you have any pills?"
Ino shook her head. "I didn't like the way they made me feel so I stopped taking them."
"I didn't ask how they made you feel, I asked if you had any." She retorted back.
After a moment, Ino walked around toward the register, and pulled out a drawer. She threw the bottle at Sarada who caught it with ease. Ino watched the teenager place the bottles in her bag and proceed to leave.
"Sarada, I don't think you should take them."
"...fuck off..."
Sarada was angry at them all, thinking they all turned their backs on Boruto, but she didn't believed he didn't kill his parents, didn't kill Naruto. Ino wasn't going to argue with Sarada, not when she was so caught up in this situation.
It was time for Ino to get home. Since their deaths or...disappearance, it was the Yamanaka family that was watching over Sasami while the Nara family watched over Naruko. They were young still, four or so. Himarwari, herself, would be a young lady soon.
...so much had changed...
The apartment door was unlocked when Sarada placed the key, uncertain, her movements were slow but as the door slowly spread opened, her mother and Karin looked at her. Worried flushed over her face, Sakura got up from her chair, nearly knocking it over and ran to her daughter. The two embraced in a deep hug neither woman didn't realized they severely needed.
Sakura kept her hands on Sarada's shoulders, holding back tears seeing her daughter so grown. She had to embrace her into another hug and she did, Karin still at their sides.
"Where's Sasuke?"
"Fighting."
Sakura gulped, the tears finally falling, "Is it true...what Boruto did?"
"No!" Sarada yelled. She calmed herself, closed her eyes and held her breath. Again, "No, he wouldn't do that to them. You'll see."
The same determined look that was once in Naruto's eyes was now in her's, it was all too familiar to Sakura.
It kept all of her strength for her to not fall to the floor: Naruto, Hinata, Sasuke...
"Where's Sasami?"
"With Ino and Sai...sometimes with Hanabi or me when I'm not on a mission."
Karin hadn't said a word since she saw Sarada walk through the door. She kept her eyes on the young woman and found what she had been looking for.
Giving Sakura time to breathe, some room to think, Karin followed Sarada to her room. Sarada rummaged through her bag and took out the pill bottle, only for Karin to expel her chains from her back and grab the bottle.
"Hey!" Sarada yelled, Sakura running to the door way.
"These are being recalled. They're not safe, Sarada. There's a chemical in here that's manipulating the testosterone within our bodies that we're not used to yet. It's making us angrier and violent. These pills are no good."
Visibly upset, Sarada threw up her hands. "What am I suppose to do with this?" Pointing toward the organ within her short shorts.
Karin exchanged looks with Sakura who bowed her head, leaving the two Orochimaru Women in a room together. And like it wasn't such a chore, Karin walked over to Sarada's bed and sat on it.
"Sarada...this is the new normal. The pills aren't good. The only way you can get rid of it is to have sex with a woman...until we make progress on the pills. Ostuski is our priority now back at the lab." The Uzumaki's eyes met the Uchiha's. "You don't have any female friends who will help you out?" She whispered.
Sarada thought back to when her and Boruto went to train with Sasuke, when she had gotten jealous, and left. Making her way back to the village, she went to Cho-Cho's house...she remembered how hard her cock was when Cho-Cho had touched it, how Sarada wanted to have sex but Cho-Cho had said no. It took so much power for Sarada to not take her and that was what scared her: the desire she had to violently take Cho-Cho when told no.
Sarada shook her head. There was no other girl...maybe Sumeri. The two have gotten close but Susu was really into Boruto...at least...maybe. Sarada shook her head once more. Not Cho-Cho, not Sumeri...Sarada had no friends she could go to.
Karin, Tsunade, Hinata, and Ino-Sakura had been getting her back blown out by all of them, even had Hinata's baby, but Sarada had not one, not one girl who she thought would sleep with her.
There was a knock on the door, Sakura peeked her head in just as Karin stood up. "I'm ready to pick up Sasami. Sarada, we'll be back soon."
Sarada simply nodded her head as they left her alone. The pills gone, her cock still present, no girls to have sex with, Boruto was seen as a traitor, and Sarada still wanted to be hokage! She just needed help, someone with sex appeal...someone like Eida.
