Chapter One:
My Denotation
The empire in the middle of the forest where no one really goes to is filled with the joys of a celebration. The houses are decorated with colorful lanterns in a white circular pattern when you look from above and red shades in the middle and out. Every single thing is designed with papers in different colors swaying in the ways of the winds. In the middle of the amazing houses is the biggest house where the best designs are, The Haruno Palace. It is filled with cherry blossoms and lots more flowers reflected their colors by the lights given off from the full moon.
By the entrance of the palace, every single person is gathered and enjoying their celebration. People in the empire put their best clothes on and are enjoying the delightful night. They chat and interact cheerfully to one another. They put their best smiles and show it to the entire clan. Out of all the beautiful women and gorgeous guys, stood the most beautiful lady in the balcony of the place over looking the entire empire. Her empire.
"I present to all of you," an old lady announced to the entire empire. All the people stopped and looked at the balcony. "at last, The Haruno Empress, Haruno Sakura." Everyone cheered and clapped showing their respect and happiness for their Empress.
Lady Hasu placed the crown on top of the head of the pink haired empress. She softly smiled at her granddaughter. This is their night. This is her night.
"Arigato, obaa-san." Haruno Sakura tearfully whispered gave her gratitude to her obaa-san. In her green gown with the red design of a cherry blossom at the bottom left of her dress surrounded with white imprints of its stems, she looked over her empire in the balcony of the palace decorated with cherry blossom and the Haruno clan symbol in the back. She smiled to her people with her bangs framing her face and her hair in a messy bun.
"As your empress, I would do everything for my people!" She proudly said to the whole Haruno Empire. More cheers and applause came from the people below them. Her grand mother and other relatives either went inside to the palace or went down to have a fun on their own as well. They congratulated her and she thanked each one of her special people.
"I know you will." A smooth and deep male voice whispered in her ear as he neared her. She knew who he is. She knew he would say that to her.
"With you by my side, I will. Reimei-kun." She whispered back to her cousin. He smiled softly to her younger cousin who looks like a girl version of himself minus short hair that he has instead of a longer one his cousin has.
"Just because you are the empress now, Don't think that I will go easy on you on our trainings." He teased at her as he stepped besides her. She is watching her people dance and having a great time in her Coronation Night. They had waited 15 years for her to take her crown. Now, finally, she is here for them. She looked at his green sparkly eyes.
"I know." She simply answered and turned to look back at her people. All of her people are so happy. They share everything and just them. No one else. "I wonder what will it be like if it's just not us celebrating right now." She wondered as the wind blew her bangs away.
They remained quiet while Reimei is in deep thought. "Don't hope for other people outside this empire and us to be in peace." He said as he too looked back. She didn't say anything and it was quiet again since they are the only ones in the balcony.
He continued, "Our ancestors willingly gave up their lives for this peace right now. You don't wanna ruin it now, do you?"
Sakura glared at her cousin. "Of course not! What is that suppose to mean to me?"
"You know as much as I do that you are the nicest one in this clan." He said not looking at her. "You are different from us deep within you."
"Doesn't mean that I would let that get in the way." She snapped back at him. She maybe the nicest one but she knows how to hide and control it. She was trained 3 years before this night keeping her emotions check and under control. Looking at the horrible sights of death is enough for her to know that emotions are making you weak. They hold you back.
"I know you won't but," He said looking at her emerald orbs, "Being nice comes from the heart. But the heart gives more than just being nice. And I want you to listen deeply within your own heart if certain occasion comes."
Sakura starred at Reimei confusingly. What is he talking about? If being kind is from the heart and she is kind... sometimes, that means that she listens to her heart. Emotions are given away from your heart. She knows he was talking about those too. Why would she release her emotions at certain Occasions? She doesn't get that part. Deciding not to load him with questions, she just looked back at her people.
"I am not judging our peace by its consequences, it resembles weakness than strength." She silently quoted. She doesn't wanna ruin the peace she has in her empire or the consequences of it. Weakness is always unacceptable in the clan. She doesn't wanna think about their peace and how this is a weakness. She was named a weakling once and that is not going to happen again no matter what. And she would do everything so. But right now, she wants to have fun. She was never happy for as long as she could remember. This is her night and she is going to make the most out of it.
"Let's go down." She happily said as he grabbed Reimei's hand and dragged him out of the palace and in the streets where everyone is having fun. Yup, this is their empress. First excited, then serious then angry and then happy. This empire will never be the same.
A year after the Coronation Night of the Haruno Empress,
Sakura panted and rest her back in the trunk of a Sakura Tree. Standing in front of her is her cousin, Reimei. He too is sweating and panting. Both of them just finished their training. This is not just an ordinary training. Their body are full of burn marks and are still bleeding.
"How was it?" Sakura asked while trying to catch her breath. She rest her hands on her knees and looked up to Reimei.
"Pathetic." He said to her. Sakura glared at him. He smirked at her and nodded.
"Better. I think you are way better than me now." He proudly admitted.
Sakura gave him a triumphant smirk. She worked really hard and train really hard to be the best. She began her serious training with her strict cousin about 3 years before she was crowned the empress. She didn't work hard just to call her training pathetic. Or her a weakling.
"You still need to focus. A lot. And we need to get the Fire Phoenix to like you at least." Reimei suggested as he went in front of her. Sakura frowned. Now that will be hard. But she would do everything especially now that they are getting threats from other villages and small attacks.
The Haruno empire loves being independent and no one can just dictate whatever to them. Most of them are exceptional healers so other villages wants their power for the benefit of their village. With this pride, every single villages in all countries hates them and wants to destroy them because refusing ones allegiance is like signing your own war contract. So pretty much, they have bought the war to themselves.
The Haruno Clan doesn't need anyone or any allegiance from any villages. They have everything. They have great ninjas, powerful healing powers and their great ruler and their special secrets that everyone is dying to know. Why would they pick side in a Shinobi war? They could save lives but they can also lose lives. The continuing decrease of the Haruno population is least of their worries but that doesn't mean they would give in.
Sakura began healing herself. Reimei did the same thing too. They decided to stay for a while before heading back to the empire.
"I really don't get it how we are so amazing with detecting chakra signatures." Reimei smirked at Sakura. He put his hands on his pocket and his eyes set on her emerald ones. Dark green orbs to emerald ones. Since most Harunos are medics, it is natural for them to know mostly everything about chakra. Chakra is their specialty. That is why they are very useful both in medical field and in battle field.
"Well, I do. And I am going to prove it to you!" Sakura exclaimed and 16 pairs of Kunai was launch from her and her cousin between their fingers and are headed for the trees around them. With his speed, he managed to kill 2 intruders making it impossible for them to escape. With her precise chakra control, Sakura made her kunais dig deep within the thick trunks of the trees and to the other end of the trunk killing 4 more intruders behind the trees.
6 bodies of ninjas were dropped dead from the branch of the trees. Both Sakura and Reimei had sense their chakras few moments ago but decided to ignore them since they didn't do any harm to them...yet. Reimei was trying everything to control himself from getting blood thirsty. He loves someone else's blood in his hands. Sakura doesn't wanna harm them at first until they felt a warning from inside the empire. They maybe miles away from the empire in the middle of a forest but that doesn't mean they won't sense it. She is their empress after all. How stupid this ninjas are! They won't kill her with their surprise attack.
The 10 ninjas that are still alive left their hiding spots and jumped down from the trees. Each one has different forehead protector around their heads. She and Reimei recognizes them as one of the Mist, Cloud, Stone and Sound ninjas. Joined forces against them.
Then it came to Sakura that this is the day she feared the most. The consequences of the said peace in her empire. She prepared her people for this kind of a surprise attack after being crown the empress. I hope they are all ready... unlike her. But then again, because of their stupid pride, they are so sure of themselves that they can manage. She, their empress, disobeyed her.
She and Reimei just finished one of the most tiring trainings they have. Both she and Reimei are near exhaustion. And the fact that they some of their chakra to heal themselves. But those won't get in the way. This two weren't name the strongest Harunos for nothing.
"Maybe you should prove you are worthy being the Haruno Empress." One of the Mist ninjas mockingly bowed at her first before he lunged at her with his kunai in his hand aiming at her. Sakura prepared herself. Out of the corner of her eyes, she could see Reimei dealing with the new batch of intruders.
"Before you die, that is." The Sound ninja coming from behind her said smugly. She is really pissed right now. But just like exhaustion, emotions won't get in the way.
Reimei is quite enjoying himself killing more and more ninjas. But they seem endless. One group dies and expect another one to come. This is so pathetic. They are trying to outnumber them. But smart at the same time. She's give credit for that one. No matter how skilled you are, when you are outnumbered, it is still useless. You may kill a lot but that won't affect the large group you are fighting against.
She focused on the ninja lunging at her and the Sound ninja in her back. She disappeared and reappeared behind the Sound ninja and pulled out somebody Else's kunai and stabbed it in the Sound ninja's neck. She isn't the violent type but we are talking about taking down her empire.
"What the--?" The mist ninja asked surprisingly as he looked at his hand without the kunai he used to have. He looked back at the Haruno Empress. She is in so much trouble. Then she remembered, about being outnumbered.
'Well, what the hell?' She thought and smirked. 'I am not easily outnumber.'
