Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto ( sob ) ( Sasuke gives me a weird look) cause if I did Sasuke would get the stick out of his ass and be with Sakura ( Sasuke glares, Sakura blushes, inner Sakura is cheerleading in the background.) Ahah….DON'T KILL ME SASUKE!!!!!! ( author runs away from scary revenge obsessed boy ).

Tears of Pain

It was a silent night in Konoha. Everyone had retired early for the stress of the war with sound had them all at the end of their ropes.

The only person up at this hour was a certain pink haired kinoichi named Sakura Haruno. Being out this late did not scare our little cherry blossom though, because she had grown up and become one of the strongest ninjas in the village.

Gone was the time where she had to be protected by her teammates. In fact, she was in charge of helping everyone else seeing as she now ran the Konoha Hospital as well as being the Hokage's apprentice and leading negotiations with Suna.

She was strong now but she hadn't always been that way. She had been forced to change. Ever since that fateful night four years ago, nothing had ever been the same for her.

Flashback:

Sakura watched as the love of her life prepared to leave the village and her, all in the search for power. Power to kill his own brother with. Sakura understood, she really did. His brother slaughtered his clan, he needed revenge, she accepted that, but her aching heart told her otherwise.

"I love you with all my heart! I promise if you stay ill make each and every day happy. Ill do whatever it takes, ill even help you get your revenge, but please… don't leave! And if you have too then.. Take me with you! I love you so much!"

He looked at her with those cold obsidian orbs " Che. You really are annoying…"

Sakura felt her heart crack with his words. He turned to leave once again.

"If you leave I'll scream!"

He was behind her in an instant (damn ninja prodigy ). She felt the hot sticky tears make tracks down her face as she felt the cold wind that night blow through her hair.

They stood their in silence for a moment before she heard a soft "thank you".

Before she could even process these words there was a sickening thunk and her world became darkness.

End flashback

She had given him her heart, told him she loved him, but he threw it aside. After all he didn't need love, especially that of a weak teammate who he was always forced to protect.

When she had woken up the next day finding herself on a cold stone park bench. Her fragile little heart which had cracked under all of his insults, his hate and his glares had finally shattered into a million jagged little pieces. She did what any normal teenage girl would do, she cried.

She asked her best friend and fellow teammate to bring back Sasuke. If anyone could bring him back it was the ramen loving future Hokage who viewed Sasuke as his brother. When she saw Naruto brought back days later, almost dead, it was the last straw for her.

No longer could she be weak, or allow others to hurt her, she was strong and she didn't need anyone. At least that is what she told herself.

She didn't want to bear the burden of emotions anymore. They were a hindrance in her life and only served to cause her grief.

She refused the humiliation of having someone see her cry again. So she trained. She apprenticed under the great slug Sannin herself and became the best medinin in the village. She even inherited Tsunade's inhuman strength.

She had Lee train her rigorously in taijutsu and had Kurenai help her with her genjutsu. She even trained with Kakashi and Neji to learn to fight against the Sharingan and the Byakugan.

Even after all of this though, she still wasn't happy. Her emotions still got in the way. No matter how hard she tried she just couldn't let them go.

She decided to talk to her new teammate Sai. He was raised to be emotionless, but perhaps he could teach her.

She worked with him for months to perfect controlling her emotions. She could never get rid of them completely, but she could put away the hurt and the tears until she was alone.

Now she could truly be what a ninja was supposed to be. Devoid of emotion or feelings, thinking only about the mission.

In the four year she had trained, she had never let her emotions rage as they did right now.

She didn't think she could sprint fast enough to Tsunade. She was almost there, the building was rising up in the distance as she saw the sun begin to creep up from behind the mountains.

Usually Tsunade didn't call her in this early but this was the acceptation. She knew Naruto would already be there. He was his teammate as well.

She had no idea what had happened or why he had come back. She just knew that she had to see him again.

Her teammate, her friend, her love, Sasuke Uchiha.
