Sakura walked out to the Valley of the End.

 

“Come out you bastard. I want to kill you.”

 

“Well now, Sakura, if you really wanted to, why didn't you take the note's advice? You know that Orochimaru-sama sees potential in you. He even took the time of killing your parents instead of sending someone to. You should be honored.”

 

“You can go burn in hell Kabuto.”

 

“Well well Sakura. If you don't think you are too weak, you can try.”

 

Sakura launched herself at Kabuto. She wasn't going to let her training with Tsunade go to waste. She was going to kill him if it was the last thing she did.

 

Kabuto knew Sakura was too blinded by fury to control herself. He dodged her punch easily as he saw that she missed and made a crater in the ground. He then ran over to her and bound her hands and feet before she had time to react.

 

“Sakura-chan, this is the Valley of the End. The will also be the end of your weak state.” Orochimaru whispered into Sakura's ear.

 

She whipped her head around. “Orochimaru! What do you want?” she stood frozen in fear. She knew she could not defeat him in such a weak state. Weak… Sakura cursed. She hated that word.

 

“You are right. You are too weak to defeat me. Why don't you just let me make you stronger? It's for your own good. It would make you happy.” Orochimaru hissed into her ear.

 

Sakura looked down. She knew it was true, but she didn't want to become weak like Sasuke and succumb to the snake. She knew better. Her logical mind told her that, and yet, and yet, her heart told her otherwise.

 

“You killed my parents. Who would do anything but kill you after that?”

 

“Sakura, you know,” Orochimaru smirked; he knew she was close to the breaking point. “I can always just bring them back. You've seen me do it before haven't you? Dying is never a problem for me.”

 

Sakura flinched. She did see Orochimaru summon the dead before, but she never knew if it was real or not. She hated this.

 

“Don't you want everyone to acknowledge your strength?”

 

That made Sakura snap. Her logical thinking vanished and she stopped resisting. She ripped away from Kabuto's hold and staggered back.

 

“Wait for me.” She muttered before vanishing.

 

Orochimaru smirked. “Kabuto, we just found the one who will heal my arms. Teach her everything you know.” Then he vanished.

 

“Hai, Orochimaru-sama.”

Sakura staggered back into Konoha. It was nightfall. The perfect time to leave. She ran back to her house. Entering her blood-filled home, she went upstairs. She knew she wouldn't have to worry about anything, so she took what was irreplaceable. Four photos, one of team 7 at 12 years old, one that was recently taken of all the 17 and 18 year old rookie nine, another was one when she was five, one of her, Ino, Sasuke, Naruto and another figure. The last was one of her parents. She put those in her pocket and left to her next stop.

 

She reached her destination. The Uchiha district. She went to Sasuke's window. She found him asleep on his couch. Concealing her presence and chakra, she walked over.

 

“Sasuke, I love you. Tell everyone goodbye.” She kissed him on the cheek and vanished.

Sasuke woke up. He looked around. He knew that something was odd about his situation. He found out what it was. A blanket had been draped over him while he was sleeping. He frowned.

 

`Who could have gotten into my house without me noticing? Even if people conceal their chakra, I can usually tell. The only people I can't are people who I am very comfortable around. Since my family is dead,' Sasuke shuddered. `The only people are…Kakashi, the dobe and…'

 

“Sakura!” Sasuke yelled. He knew he wasn't dreaming when he heard her voice telling him she loved him and to tell everyone goodbye. Something was wrong. He left his house and raced to Sakura's.

“I'm ready.” Sakura said dully as she saw Kabuto waiting for her.

 

“Said all your goodbyes already? That was fast. Well let's go.”

 

“Yes…” `Goodbye Konoha, the next time I'll see you is when I help destroy you… please find it in your heart to forgive my damned self. I'm sorry, I'm so sorry.”

“Sakura!” Sasuke banged the front door open. He flinched at the blood-stained house. It was too familiar. He ran up the stairs into Sakura's room. He stared wide-eyed as she saw it ransacked and extremely messy. Things had been thrown everywhere. It looked like someone had been searching for something. It the middle of the clutter was a small clearing. In the center was a photo album. His eyes widened as he saw what pictures had been taken out. He knew who had taken them out.

 

“SAKURA!!!”
