Well I don't own Naruto or any of it's characters!
"So...is Sasuke disqualified?" Kakashi questioned his fellow jounin as everyone in the crowd watched in excitement of the arrival of the final match of the Chuunin Exams, Sasuke Uchiha vs. Gaara of the Sand.
"He must have caught your habit of being late," the jounin replied.
Kakashi scratched at the back of his neck," So is he?"
"He's fine," the official began," Sasuke's match was put on hold...And he arrived just in time, so he didn't get disqualified."
Kakashi laughed," I'm glad to hear that."
Sasuke and Gaara stared each other down as Naruto yelled out," Sasuke, I want to fight you as well."
"I know," the avenger replied.
The crowd cheered as Ino turned to Sakura," Sakura your team is amazing!"
"How so?"
"Because that Naruto beat Hyuuga Neji. And Sasuke-kun is an elite Uchiha. And it looks like everyone has been itching to see Sasuke-kun's match."
Sakura inwardly rolled her eyes, why was it always about her teamates. She was always left out, no one ever thought Sakura Haruno was an amazing fighter. She felt almost betrayed her sensei had run off and left her to train Sasuke and Naruto was being trained by the Jiraiya, a legend.
Kakashi appeared moments later to watch the grand event that everyone had been waiting for, interrupting her from her reverie.
Sasuke stood across from Gaara, the fight moments from begining.
The jounin raised his hand," Begi..." he trailed off as a bright light filled the arena, as a storm of Cherry Blossoms swirled in a circle, like Sasuke and Kakashi had arrived earlier. Everyone looked on in amazement wondering who it was this time.
The blossoms cleared, and two figures one taller then the other, of Akatsuki stood.
"What do you want?" the jounin asked preparing for a battle.
"TA DA!" the shorter one yelled, in a sly feminine voice, as she threw her cloak and hat to the side to reveal none other then a girl with a Konoha band on her forhead. She was dressed in a very low cut outfit, a mid thigh slit started where the tight fitting kimono ended mid leg, a pair of shorts underneath, twin sai daggers on her hips, an obi around her waist, and heeled sandals. The only thing recognizable about her was her long waist length pink locks, currently tied in a high ponytail, she was back to back with the other member, her bright green eyes slid open as she looked back grinning at the other.
Sakura gaped at the young women who appeared, as everyone cast glances from her to the other, they looked identical.
"Who are you," the hokage demanded them as the crowd grew silent.
She grinned cockily," Haruno Sakura, or well Haruno Sakura five years from now. I'm seventeen captain of ANBU black ops."
The crowd gaped and taking this as an opportunity, the other member through his hat off as well," And current prisoneer of your very own, Uchiha Itachi!"
She turned swaying," You took us back in time?"
He grinned," That was the girliest entrance I've ever seen, I mean appearing in a storm of Cherry Blossoms?"
She picked a Cherry Blossom out of her long bangs and threw it at him," Get over it!"
Sasuke growled in rage at his older brother, as Kakashi grabbed the young Sakura appearing with her on the field.
The older Sakura turned glaring before she stammered slightly," This is...your fault Uchiha! Now what do we do!?"
Itachi grinned wildly," Throw a party?!"
Sakura giggled delighted," You sure are some genious! Yes a party! No wait...didn't we just have a party?"
"Not in this time babe," Itachi hollered as everyone but the older Sakura took a step back from the two swaying ninjas.
"Oh I know," she slurred throwing a finger into the air in defiance," We'll invite EVERYONE! Kakashi, Naruto, Gaara, Ino, Neji, TenTen, Sasuke..."
At the sudden mention of the avengers name, she burst into tears as she wailed," Oh Sasuke, why oh why did you join Orochimaru! You gorgeous dream boat!"
Everyones eyes where now on the odd pair as she turned in anger ," This is your fault you pedaphile snake!" she screamed pointing to the kazekage who dissapeared, reappearing on the roof as sound nin surrounded him, he threw his disguise away, revealing himself as Orochimaru.
"You will pay for interrupting my plans girl!" he seethed in rage.
Sakura crossed her arms defiantly, swaying slightly and let out an accusing yell," Itachi! Orochimaru is threatening to kill me...again!"
Itachi reached to his waist for his katana," I shall save you my cherry blossom!"
"Wait...where's my katana?" he asked looking where his sword should be, but apparently wasn't.
"Who cares where your stupid sword is! Where's my Sasuke!" she screeched, stumbling as everyone stared, and the younger Sakura blushed embarrassed.
"Donn't worry I shall help you save my darling sibling!" Itachi declared looking to her.
Sakura was suddenly surrounded by sparkles," Really?"
He nodded goofily in agreement.
"Itachi!"
"Sakura!"
"Itachi!"
"Sakura!"
The claimed as they embraced, a sparkly red moon in the background.
Lee looked back to Gai," That is so youthful, but odd."
Gai nodded in agreement," That's right Lee."
"Gai-sensei!"
"Lee!'
"Gai-sensei!"
"Lee!"
The embraced as a sunset and rainbow surrounded them.
No one was watching the two though as they stared mouth agape at Sakura and Itachi, Sakura glared," Itachi people are staring."
"Thats because your drunk Sakura."
She laughed," Just a lil' bit! It's your fault, I told you if you passed out first I would escape and then you had to help me find Sasuke. Just because I was winning didn't mean Deidara had to put the attachment juutsu on us though!"
Itachi just shook his head stubbornly," What did you expect though, after you not being effected by ten shots of straight vodka, it became necessary. I didn't expect anything less from Tsunade's apprentice though!"
"Lets go see her, oh wait, lets go stop sand and sound from attacking Konoha!" Sakura gleefully shrieked.
"Your so hot when you get all avengeful!" Itachi smirked pulling her in as she shrieked.
"What's wrong?"
Sakura looked at her finger nails," My finger nail polish is chipped! I need you to paint them for me!" Sakura demanded of her fire painted nails.
"Only if I, me," Itachi began swaying, and pointing to himself, making Sakura stumble right along with him," Uchiha Itachi, may choose the color!"
Sakura put a finger to her chin and looked to the sky as if in deep thought hmming here and there,"YES! You drive a hard bargain, but I except!"
She pointed forwards into the distance," To the nail polish store!" before falling face forwards to the ground, Itachi shrieked shaking his head," NO! It's this way!" he yelled pointing upwards to the sky as he fell backwards, both out cold.
Everyone stared wide eyed, Sasuke and Naruto eyeing their Sakura strangely. Sakura though was bright red in embarrasment staring strangly at her older self.
Kakashi motioned to Gai who appeared beside him, and they both burst out laughing, as the awkward silence continued. Kakashi grabbed Sakura and Gai grabbed Itachi as they carried the two time travellers away from the arena. Kakashi turned ,"Sakura..."
"...Yes?" she asked.
"For future referrence I think it's best you stay away from vodka, and Itachi. Because Sakura, Vodka, and Itachi should never go together in a sentence. Plus that is something I never need to experience again..."
She smacked her head as the whole crowd burst out laughing, and turned running to catch up to her sensei. The hokage claimed that the village be put on watch for sound and post-poned the last match, the rookie nine and the jounin where asked to come to the back room as they awaited the two to wake up.
Thats it for this chapter!
