After her violent display Sakura's movements were even more restricted and was again shifted to a different area. A small house which was surrounded by a thick lush forest from all the four directions. It was one of the forbidden grounds on Uchiha territory. A dangerous place lurking with huge beasts, poisonous creatures etc. Survival rate of a low level ninjas was very less.
However Sakura didn't have to worry about it because she knew even thought her chakra was sealed she had the ability to survive there. No monster will approach her. Since there were summon beasts there in order to guard the area and protect it from the intruders. And the elite Uchina nins were guarding the outskirts of this forbidden ground.

I was sitting in my shabby room combing my extremely long hair. Trying to get rid of the knots. It's a hassle to maintain such long traces.
'It's been years since I had hair this long. After Sarada was five I never let it grow did I?' Sarada loved my hair. A faint smile formed on her lips. 'As for him...'

Suddenly her eyes turned cold her smile vanished. She placed the wooden comb down asked in an indifferent tone.
"What brings you here Lord Madara?"

"Oh...So you still could tell that I was here."

"Please don't beat around the bush and get straight to the point."

"Hmmm..." She didn't know what was going through his head which made her even more anxious.

"I'm here to inform you of your sister's wedding."

"Hmmm... Ok.." The young man waited for her to absorb the information and when she did...

"Wait... Wait.."

"What!"

"What did you just say?" She was utterly shocked by his words.

Uchiha heir was unaffected by her outburst.

"Her marriage has been arranged to the eldest son of Butsuma Senju."

"H...Hashirama..."

"What a terrifying woman. She managed to enter Hashirama's den without even doing anything. She must have used her seduction skills. I have heard how she seduce people with her dance."

He purposely provoked the woman in front of him and the results were very satisfying.

She knew he was trying to agitate her but she couldn't stand him insulting her friend.

She glared at him. "My sister is not that kind of woman. There's no way, she will ever willingly agree to this."

"How are you so sure?"

In the heat of moment she blurted.

"Because her devotion for him is impregnable..."

There was a pause for a moment.

Then she could feel a warm breath on her ear.

"And what about you?"

She looked up shocked. 'When did he come this close?'

She felt shiver ran down her spine as those dark eyes looked down at her without any emotions.

What she didn't know was his eyes stayed glued to her hair from the beginning to the end.

The news of Hinata getting married off hadn't had much of an effect on Sakura's situation what so ever. Instead she has been burying herself culturing the rear herbs that are difficult to come upon in the market. Since she has all the time in the world to herself, it's not that she has forgotten about her initial goal of destroying that tablet but it's not the right time yet. She still refused to assist Uchiha army but she occasionally takes the initiative to heal people when the situation is dire. She is also not allowed out of the vicinity.

furthermore since she is the only resident there, other than the dangerous creature that lurks inside the woods that surrounds her shed, the herbs and medical apparatus are provided to her and the medical herbs that are not found easily she personally nurtures them which is not easy given due to the lack of technology and the conditions she live in but there's nothing she can do about it. She sighed and went back to watering the plants.

"Big brother this place looks scary"

"It's alright nothing is going to happen big brother is here." Little girl cried.

"B...But big brother you are hurt." The little boy who was standing with the little girl sobbed trembling with fear.

"Don't worry I am fine you guys go and hide. I'll take care of this monster." The brave little boy stood holding a stick in his small hands clenching them tightly.

He was like a barrier between the monster and his siblings. The boy himself was bleeding profusely but didn't dare move his eyes from the monster before him, struggling to stand straight, breathing heavily.

"Brother watch out!"

All he could hear was screams before he was slammed into the tree, knocked out of his breath from the impact. He fell down on his stomach struggling to breath in some air. It was hard to stay conscious at this point. He saw the beast stalking towards his younger siblings. Helpless tears started spilling from his eyes as he tried to crawl his way to his loved ones. As he was, feeling of helplessness sunk in all he could do was wail in agony.

"Nooooooooooooo"

As if the heavens heard his anguish. He saw a flash of pink and red.

"Shannarroooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

He saw a huge beast taken down in an instant.

A blurred figure of pink and red rushing towards him before succumbed to darkness.

Sakura was going on about her everyday routine when she felt a slight spark of chakra from a certain direction. Somewhere near the perimeter of the forest she predicted.

'What's going on?' She was confused.

'Did someone tried to infiltrate?'

'But why would someone be stupid enough to get into a dangerous place such as this unless they want something from me.'

'Though it doesn't feel like a fight is going on.'

She decided to take a look at the situation. She rushed to the scene. The shackles around her wrist and ankles restricted her movements. But she made it in time to witness the barbaric scene of a child violently being slammed into a tree by a giant beast. Most likely one of the beasts residing the vicinity.

She heard the child scream as the giant marched towards the other children. Her eyes twitched.

'What the hell are they doing here?'

She jumped to their aid and ruthlessly kicked the giant which was three times than her. The kick wasn't powerful enough to kill it but it was knocked out. This was the most she could without chakra.

The beast fell and she moved towards the child lying unconscious.

She ran a superficial check up on the injured child. He didn't have any internal injuries. But the collision did cause some external wounds and some shock to the brain resulting in loosing consciousness. She let out a sigh of relief and faced the other two children.

"Are you alright?"

They were too petrified to respond. When they realized they were safe. They ran to her and started wailing clinging to her desperately, all the pent up emotions let loose.

She hugged them with a soothing voice she said.

"It's alright. Don't be scared I'm here now. But first let's gets this child to a safer place."

Then she released the two. They did make a fuss as they were worried about their big brother.

She picked up the injured one from the ground and headed back towards her shed. And the other two followed her like small chicks.
