SasuSaku

Sakura...1

2 years later.2

Hinata found her boy friend. She loved Gaara.3

Sakura was still after Sasuke.4

Hinata and Sakura both went after Sasuke. After being through so many fights, Sakura nearly looked like she was going to drop dead any second. Hinata was in front of her keeping Sakura's pace. She wasn't hesitating. Hinata stood back and watched Sakura be hit to many times and couldn't do anything. Sakura put her life in front of Hinata just to protect her.5

"Sakura! I think this is the place."Hinata looked back to Sakura. Sakura looks up to see a lair. 6

"Let's go."Sakura immediately looked better and started to charge toward the door. She punched the solid door open and it flew into a few other doors and broke them also. All the fire torches that were giving out light were burnt out. Hinata got out a candle stick and lit it. They both headed in and looked through all the doors. 7

"This is taking too long, we need to split up."Hinata nodded and ran the opposite direction. Sakura was upset that is was this hard just to find Sasuke. Hinata Barged into many empty rooms carelessly. Sakura ran down the hallway silently and tried listening to her heart. She turned a left down another hallway and her heart stopped for a second, while a door flew open and slammed into the wall 2 feet ahead of her. Silhouette of a man stood there. Red glaring eyes, he walked towards her. Sakura's heart told her to get out of there quick. So she did, she turned and dashed down the hallway. Her arm was caught by a long, smooth, strong snake. She screamed thinking this might be Orochimaru she ran into. 8

Hinata gasped when she heard Sakura scream. She turned her head and started to run to where she heard Sakura. "Sakura, Sakura!"9

Sakura was struggling to get away.10

"Sakura." The man said to her in his deep velvety voice. Sakura turned to see the muscular, tall, raven haired man she used to know as a small boy. Her heart sped up and her eyes widened.11

"Sasuke!"She dropped her guard and didn't know what to do. She stared at his new features. Tall body, lose pants, longer black hair, white shirt that was hanging open showing his strong smooth chest. She was dazed. This was the boy she once knew? Sasuke smiled.12

"Are you just going to stare?"The snake wrapped tighter around her arm and he stepped close to her. Sakura came back to the real world. Sasuke does not want any business with the Konoha. Sakura threw her fist to Sasuke's head. Hinata came running into the scene.13

"Sakura watch out!"Hinata cried out. Sasuke started to be surrounded in a full body chidori. Sakura moved her punch to the snake, got free, and jumped back out of his attack. She clenched her teeth and ran to him with her fist up. "Sakura, no!" She saw Sasuke place his hand on his sword and jumped back again. She had no good attacks from a distance. "Just leave it to me." Hinata stepped in front of Sakura and got in the position for 64 palm. Her arms out stretched, Sasuke was in her range. Sasuke's eyes turned red. Sakura fell over from losing too much blood.14

Sasuke caught her with in a blink of an eye. Hinata canceled her attack and looked to see that Sasuke was now behind her with in a second. Her face was written with fear. "If you are going to attack, do it the right way." Sasuke hit Hinata in the back of her head ,and left her. He picked Sakura up in his arms and walked back to the room he came from. The raven haired boy stepped carefully while looking at Sakura's bruised face. " What a shame... Bruising such a beautiful face." Sasuke brushed his hand over her cheek. Sakura groaned and tried opening her eyes. Sasuke put her down on his bed and stepped back into a corner. All of his emotions were not gone like his brother, Itachi. Sasuke kept them inside. He did not want to follow his brothers steps, but he had to hide his emotions just like every other elite shinobi. Sakura got up quickly looking around the room.15

"Hinata!" She hurriedly got up and ran to the door. Then she realized this wasn't where she passed out. Who took her here? Sakura looked back and saw Sasuke staring at her. She turned around and took out her kunai. "Wait... if you were fighting me, why did you take me here?"16

"..."Sasuke stared at her choosing not to answer. He felt sad and hurt inside. He wanted to be friends with her and Naruto still. He missed the competition between them all.17

"What did you do to Hinata!?" Sakura was about to cry.18

"I simply put her into a small nap, she is out side."Sasuke stayed in his dark corner waiting for them to come back. He heard Sakura starting to use her chakra.19

"Hinata?"Sakura was healing her wounds. "Are you okay? Can you hear me?" Hinata was slowly opening her eyes.20

"S-sakura." Hinata tried getting up. Sakura put her hand on her shoulder.21

"Don't push your self." Sakura sat down next to her. She had that memory stuck her her head for along time. She missed Sasuke and it hurt that Sasuke wasn't happy to see her like she was. She looked down.22

"Sakura, are you okay?" Hinata stared at Sakura's face. Sakura caught a few tears that fell.23

"Oh I'm sorry... I was just thinking about the time Sasuke left." Sakura smiled pitifully. Sasuke was hearing all their words. He was so hurt back then. He learned to get over it. He was staring up at the ceiling and waiting for them to come in and attack again. He had no intention of killing them, otherwise they would be dead.24

"Should we go back?"Hinata clutched her neck.25

"You stay here. I'll go. If I don't come back in about 15 minuets come and see what's up." Hinata nodded and Sakura got up and walked slowly to his door. Sasuke heard Sakura coming and looked at the door again. Sakura tensed and knew she loved him still, but she couldn't stand this. She needs to bring him back, but she can't fight him like this! She sneaked into his room and threw the kunai at his feet. She was very unstable and still couldn't stand attacking him.26

Sasuke appeared next to her holding his sword to her neck. He whispered into her ear,"Sakura, why can't you aim towards me. Can it be you are too scared?" He pulled his sword tighter to her throat. Sakura grabbed the blade and cried.27

"I can't fight you... I still love you." Sasuke dropped his sword and pushed her against the wall. He put his hands around her wrists and held her tightly to the wall. Sakura squirmed to get loose.28

Sasuke looked into her eyes and moved his face closer. "So? A shinobi needs to carry out his or her mission on their own whim. You simply need to rid of your emotions, and serve what you believe is right." Sasuke picked up his sword and put it in his sheath. He moved his face closer to Sakura's, tempted to kiss her, but he backed off.29

Sakura eyes widened. 'Did he just try to kiss me!?' Sasuke let go of her and turned around. Sakura thought that was a trick. She threw a punch at Sasuke's head. "Hya!" Sasuke ducked and grabbed her arm. He twisted her around in front of him.30

"Don't get too cocky." He grabbed her other arm and stared at her again.31

Sakura's eyes lightened and she stared back into his eyes.32

"Would you... never mind." Sasuke let her go again.33

"What are you thinking...?" Sakura looked at his face. "Why won't you kill me?" Sasuke took his move fast. He placed his arms around Sakura's waist and placed his lips on hers. He moved his face back to talk. "I won't kill you, only threaten you. I love you, I can't hold that emotion back any longer. I need to do what I have to. I lead my own path. Would you help me restore my clan?"34

Sakura's face was red and she couldn't take all of this in at once. Her eyes stared blankly at his face. "I'm dreaming..."35

Sasuke moved his face closer again. "Really? maybe I should make it better than a dream to show you you are awake." Sasuke kissed her gently and braided his hands through her soft pink hair. Sakura kissed back and clutched to his arms for support. Her head was so light. Sasuke kissed with more passion. Sakura lost her balance. Sasuke lost grip but then caught her right before she hit the ground. Then he kissed her again. "Please forgive me."36

Sakura's cheeks turned bright red and she held onto Sasuke's strong shoulders. "For what?"37

Sasuke pulled her up and held her in his arms. "I left you like that and never looked back." Sakura's eyes filled up with tears, some flowed over. Hinata began to worry, it was well over 15 minuets. She got up and walked towards the room. Sasuke wiped her tears and kissed her cheek. " Don't cry, I'm here... I'll be here with you forever." Hinata walked in to see Sakura nearly on the ground and Sasuke holding onto her tightly while she was crying. Hinata was alarmed and she thought Sasuke had hurt hurt.38

"Get away!" Hinata charged at Sasuke. Sasuke jumped up and was at the door way when Hinata looked back. He held Sakura gently noe and Sakura was still a bit faint and her body leaned to a side. "What did you do?" Hinata charged again.39

"Hinata, it's ok." Sakura lifted her head and looked at her. " I think he will come back."40

"No, Sakura. I'm not going back, I'm running farther away. I just wanted you to come with me to finish all my plans." Sakura was shocked. She was faced with a big decision. Either go with her love and leave her friends and family and memories, or be with out her love and live in suffering and possibly get killed.41

What will she choose?
