Going Sideways by TaikoHawk reviews
Jutsu intrinsically twist the laws of physics and what is possible. Sakura really shouldn't be surprised when accidentally mixing a few of them pretzels time and space. Flashfic series. Alternate universe/time travel.

Expedient by SwiftKick reviews
Konoha and Iwa sign a truce and agree to an Exchange Program between recently promoted genin to "bolster village relations." Fortunately, if anything were to go wrong, Haruno Sakura was just average enough to risk losing.

Tempest by cywsaphyre reviews
Back in time and armed with years of future knowledge, Sakura is ready to take the world by storm. Except... she's four again, not twelve. Ah well, nobody said she couldn't start a little early. Gen, time travel, AU, Sakuracentric.

Deceptive Fate by angelic.someone reviews
If Itachi was honest with himself he had no idea why he took her as an apprentice. She was no one special, just a pink haired child with too trusting eyes that perhaps loved him more than he would ever deserve.

A Penchant for Weakness by Eliza Beck reviews
Sakura is no stranger to the concept of weakness. It is a trait that she often finds herself catering to, regardless of her willingness to participate in it. Looming over her, it crumples her attempts at bettering herself and sometimes, just sometimes, Sakura wishes she could just collapse beneath it.

The Eyes Have It by Shana the Short reviews
[FANOWRIMO CHALLENGE] Most people seem to think that developing a doujutsu is a wondrous, unspeakably lucky occurrence. Considering that she now has to deal with an ability she has no idea how to use, family drama, fashion crises, and the world's most rude and vulgar doctor, on top of getting to know her new genin team just after graduation...needless to say, Sakura begs to differ.

Before The Dawn by Lady Silvamord reviews
Fifteen-year-old Sakura never expected to become a traitor to her village, but in a Konoha ruled by Danzou, she has no other choice. Finding her path entangling with the village's most infamous renegade, though, was another story entirely. ItaSaku AU.

Serendipity by Annie Sparklecakes reviews
AU. She had been a 5 on the scale for too long: not pretty, not ugly, just Sakura. That was, until Kiba strolled into her life and proclaimed her a 10. But what’s the price to pay for beauty, and is it worth it? Sakura's not so sure.

She is strong. Powerful. Smart. And numb. A fight that she should have never been a part of, and a question of whether or not she was truly better without them.
