Chapter 3: Searching, Sagashimasu
 
 
Sakura fell asleep. She was camping out in the forest. She didn't want to go to see Itachi, not yet at least. She would not admit it, but she had this small fear in her heart of joining the Akatsuki. But she long thought she sealed that fear when she had that dream she had not long after Sasuke left….
 
 
Flashback
 
Sakura looked around. `Where am I?'
 
*cough cough*
 
She walked over to a room and slided the shoji doors open. Her eyes widened.
 
“Sasuke-kun!” Sakura saw Sasuke being beaten by his brother. “Sasuke!” Sakura yelled, but her nor his brother seemed to notice her being there. That's when she realized. She wasn't there. She was watching something. Sakura grew wide eyed as she saw Sasuke being beaten and tortured both physically and mentally. She ran out the room and toward the front door of the building. She screamed. She finally knew where she was. She was standing in front of the Uchiha doors. Apparently Konoha had gone to war with the Akatsuki. Civilians and shinobi decorated the broken down and bloody village. She ran. She could hear her own heart beat. She looked down at the front door of the house in front of her. Ino didn't seem to have put up a very big fight, because only her and her parent's blood was scattered. She continued to run, trying to find the Konoha exit. Along the way she tripped over what seemed to a battle field. Blood was everywhere, but all of it was from Konoha ninja. She screamed as she saw Akatsuki members continue to kill, slaughter and destroy the village. She ran back to the Uchiha house and saw Itachi standing over a dead Sasuke. He was talking to him, but she could hear no noise coming out of his mouth, just it moving. Sakura ran to Sasuke's body and tried to grab it, to hold him, to make sure he wasn't dead. But that's when she froze. Her hands just went through his body. She then looked to the side of the room. She gasped as she saw her own dead body lying in the corner. Sakura screamed.
 
Sakura woke up panting and sweating.
 
End flashback
 
Sakura woke up panting and sweating. `That dream again…' She thought. That dream was one of the only dreams she was ever able to remember. She thought to the time when she also remembered another dream.
 
Flashback
 
“Who are you?” Sakura demanded. She shivered. Suddenly her dream stopped and it seemed to fast forward. Suddenly Sakura saw herself watching as a man sunk his teeth into Sasuke's neck and three comma like things appeared.
 
End flashback
 
Sakura also remembered various dreams when Lee and Gaara were fighting, but the dream she could never forget was the night before Sasuke left, when see had the exact same dream of what happened that next evening, when Sasuke really left. Tears fell from Sakura's face as she remembered the morning after she had that dream. She had vowed she would make him stay, but she in turn lied to herself and let him go.
 
Sakura furiously wiped the tears that fell from her face. `I won't go back, back to the time when I was weak. I will stop this dream even if I have to throw my humanity away.' Sakura knew Itachi was right. Emotions got in the way. The made you weak, and in order to be strong, you had to let them go. She had the evidence to back it up. Her father, her mother, Sasuke, and everyone in Konoha who thought she was weak.
 
Sakura stood up and began to run to the direction of the area guarded by the Akatsuki.

Tsunade and Shizune stared at the snake and the silver-haired man in front of them while he stood there smirking.
 
“What is your twisted mind thinking?” Tsunade whispered.
 
“Tsunade, calm yourself.” Orochimaru said with a smile. “I did not come to ruin your precious little village. In fact I won't even cause any harm. I'm just here to ask of a little favor.”
 
“As if we would do anything, let alone give you anything.” Tsunade hissed.
 
“Are you sure about that?”

Sasuke walked to a pile of ashes.
 
“Oh, I'm sorry to say, but the Haruno house was burned down yesterday.” A passing woman said to Sasuke.
 
“But I may be able to help you, Mr. brown hair.” The old woman continued. “What is your name?”
 
“Hiyoshi Takahiro. Where are the Haruno people.”
 
“Oh the tragedy. The parents were killed and the girl has been missing for a while. Apparently only the Hokage knows where she is. There are rumors that she died, she left to find the boy she had a crush on, oh what was his name? Oh yes I believe it was Uchiha Sanosuke. Or was it? My, my memory is bad.”
 
`That weak girl left to find me?' Sasuke thought.
 
“Oh yes I also heard that some said she became a criminal, joining some group…Aoitsuki? No. Ametsuki? No that wasn't it either. Oh yes, Akatsuki. That's what it was. Well, I'm sorry, but I don't know much more.”
 
“That's quite alright. Thank you.” Sasuke muttered before leaving Konoha to find Orochimaru.

“Oi, Orochimaru.” Sasuke entered the clearing and was slightly surprised to see Tsunade and Shizune talking to his sensei. “She's not here, apparently only she knows where she is.” Sasuke emphasized the second she and gestured to Tsunade.
 
“Really? Well then, Tsunade, where is your darling apprentice?”
 
Tsunade flinched. “That is none of your business.” Tsunade said quietly.
 
“I heard she sought out the Akatsuki.” Sasuke said.
 
“Akatsuki? Certainly that weak girl would have been killed on the spot.” Orochimaru said to his apprentice.
 
“Well don't be so sure.” Tsunade and Shizune spat at the same time. “She surpassed me.” Shizune continued.
 
“Really now.” Kabuto mocked. “Then again, you aren't the strongest of people.
 
“Well you know what? She just sent me a letter saying she's in the organization.” Tsunade lied, a very convincing lie.
 
“Really? So now you are friends with the enemy?” Orochimaru countered.
 
Tsunade was speechless.

Itachi looked over as he sat against a tree. There she was walking over, her head hung.
 
“So have you finished my request?”
 
“Yes.” She said quietly.
 
Itachi raised his eyebrows.
 
“Just this last thing.” Sakura opened her sealed scroll and read it aloud then she bit her thumb and pressed it against the scroll. She then fainted, but before she hit the ground, Itachi caught her.
 
`What is she doing?' Itachi thought.
