We Meet Again
"Itachi you will die!!"
"You're so foolish little brother."
"Chidori!!"
"You think you can defeat me with such a weak attack?" O-O
"To slow."
Sasuke pulled his arm out of his brothers heart and turned to walk away. What he didn't realize was not his brother was not completely dead.
"S-Sasuke…" Itachi whispered out.
Sasuke turned only to be met with a sword piercing through his lung and with that Uchiha Itachi took his last breath.
"What?" Sasuke said in surprise. "It wasn't supposed to end this way." he thought
"Sasuke!!" Suigetsu, Juugo, and Karin screamed. (sorry but I don't know how they really act around Sasuke, all I know is that Karin is a whore.)
Sasuke was laying on the ground his life bleeding away when a cloaked figure appeared in a tree not far away from where Team Hebi was gathered around him (Sasuke). The figure chuckled.
"Oh how the mighty have fallen." a female voice spoke out from under the hood of the cloak.
"Who are you?" Sasuke asked. The woman put a hand to her heart.
"It hurts to know that you have forgotten me so quickly." she said faking a sad voice. She laughed again.
"Stop toying with me and tell me who you are!?" Sasuke practically yelled getting frustrated; he then went into a coughing fit coughing up lots of blood.
"Here I'll give you a little help." the woman said jumping down from the tree. She removed the hood of her cloak to reveal long pink hair held back with a Konoha headband.
"Oh it's you, what do you want?" Sasuke asked.
"It seems you're not happy to see me." the pink haired woman said as she began to walk forward.
"Hey bitch get away from my Sasuke-kun!" Karin said jumping in the woman's way.
"I see you found a little whore while you were away." the woman told Sasuke.
"I will kill you for that!" Karin said charging at the pink-haired woman with a kunai.
She quickly caught Karin's hand and was holding her up in the air by the throat with her other hand.
"Do you know who you are messing with? I am Haruno Sakura of the Village Hidden In the Leaves, ex-apprentice of the Godaime herself. There is no kunoichi alive who can hold her own against me not even Tsunade-sama , do you think I'm going to make an exception for you?" the woman said and in one quick movement she broke Karin's neck. (me: oh yeah!!)
"Now does anyone else have a problem with me?" Sakura asked. And before she even knew it both Suigetsu and Juugo had charged at her.
"So you want to do this the hard way?" Sakura asked.
Suigetsu swung at her with his sword, Sakura dodged it but the sword caught her cloak and ripped it off. She was wearing black ninja sandals, black tights that stopped above her knees, a jean skirt (just like the one she wears in shippuuden but it a blue jean skirt instead), a black tank top with a white spaghetti strap shirt over it and a black circle on it. She had two swords strapped across her back.
"Hmm." she smirked and began making some quick hand seals then gathered chakra in her hand. When she landed on the ground she punched it, but not hard enough for the tremor to reach Sasuke. Her punch caused the ground everywhere to break and move. Suigetsu made his way past the small cliffs that Sakura had created and quickly engaged her in combat. When Juugo tried to make his way over to help Suigetsu about fifty shadow clones jumped out the cracks in the ground and began attacking him (me: that what the hand seals were for, I'm good)
Sakura got far away enough from Suigetsu to pull out her swords, she crossed them in front of her and muttered some sort of words, they glowed pink. When Suigetsu once again charged at her she jumped in the air and did a couple of flips both swords on either side of her. Hundreds of sakura petals came flying out of her swords and went straight for Suigetsu. He stopped his attack and chuckled.
"You think you can stop me with a bunch of flowers." he said as the petals came flying towards him. O-O The petals turned into shurikens right before they hit him. Suigetsu fell to the floor dead, Juugo had perished not long before him killed by the fifty or so shadow clones Sakura had sent his way. Sakura walked over the where Sasuke lay almost dead.
"So are you going to kill me too? Kick me while I'm down. Go ahead get your revenge I'm going to die anyways. " Sasuke said as Sakura approached him.
"No," Sakura said, "I'm going to heal you, for the sake of what we once were."
"And what were we?" Sasuke asked a smirk evident on his pale, dying face.
"Acquaintances." Sakura quickly responded. Her response sounded rehearsed like she had repeated it to herself over and over again.
"Do-"
"Shut up so I can heal you!" Sakura said as her hand began to glow with green chakra.
…30 minutes later
"The hole in your chest has been healed but you lost a lot of blood. You need to take one of these each hour, just for today, to replenish you blood." Sakura said taking out a bottle of pills from her ninja pouch.
"Looks like you'll need to rebuild your team." Sakura said.
"I don't need one anymore." Sasuke replied.
"Yes well do whatever you want, have a nice life." Sakura said getting up to leave.
"Sakura." Sasuke called out.
"What?" Sakura asked turning around.
"I completed my goal." Sasuke said.
"Congratulations, you finally completed the revenge that you threw your whole life away for." Sakura said with a bitter tone.
"Your wrong." Sasuke said.
"Oh am I?" Sakura asked.
"Yes, I did not throw my life away for revenge, I threw it away for you and for Naruto." Sasuke said. Sakura laughed.
"Please explain to me how that works because correct me if I'm mistaken but wasn't it you that tried to kill Naruto?" she said bitterness evident in her voice. "Was it not you that knocked me out and left me on a bench in the middle of the night? Now please tell me because I cant seem to comprehend how you did all this to help Naruto and me!" Sakura said, her eyes beginning to water.
"Because I was afraid okay! I was afraid that Itachi would come and take away anybody that I cared about. So I knew that in order for me to be happy, in order for me to live a normal life, I had to get rid of him." Sasuke said now standing in front of her.
"This wasn't part of the plan." Sakura whispered her head facing down.
"What plan?" Sasuke asked.
"The plan to heal you and get away from here as quickly as possible." Sakura said.
"Look at me Sakura." Sasuke said putting his hands on her shoulders.
"Don't touch me!" Sakura said stepping away from his grasp. Tears were now streaming down her face. "Do you see what you do? I promised myself long ago that I would not cry over you anymore and now look at me. Back when you first left I didn't know how was going to get this aching feeling out of my chest and little by little it began to go away. But I knew it was still there because I could still feel a trace of it. It was fine though because it wasn't hurting as much as it used too but just right now when I saw you it all came back. Only its feels so much worse and I just want it to go away." Sakura said clawing at her chest, "I just want you to go away!"
She fell back against a tree and slid to the ground, she pulled her knees to her chest and just began to bawl out years and years of pent up emotions.
"Sakura." Sasuke said sitting down in front of her.
"Just go away." Sakura said not looking up.
"No," Sasuke said, " I'll never leave you again."
"How can I believe you." Sakura said still not looking at him.
"I already told you, I completed my goal. And I'm ready to live a normal life, with you." Sasuke said. Sakura felt the pain in her chest lessen.
"You can't live a normal life with Naruto around." Sakura said looking up.
"Well as normal as we can make it." Sasuke said smiling. Sakura laughed and hugged him, and surprisingly he hugged her back.
"I missed you so much." Sakura whispered into his neck.
"Believe it or not, I missed you too." Sasuke whispered back
