Last Chapter:

“As you know I'm skilled with Byakugan.”

“And I'm skilled with elemental jutsu's.”

At that moment the door opened and another man walked in. Sakura's eyes narrowed and then widened when she realized just who had walked in.

Jealousy and Understanding(revised)

 

Sakura's eyes gazed at the familiar wild mane of silver hair and the partially gloved hands. She abruptly stood from her chair and slammed her hands down on the table, drawing the attention of the other three ninja's.

“You! You're my ANBU captain?” she exclaimed, feeling herself start to shake with fury.

The man just sat in a chair and put down the familiar orange book before him.

“I believe I am… is there a problem?” he asked with a false cheeriness.

Sakura fell back into her chair, her eyes still glued on her new captain, not believing her bad luck.

Kaijo and Naizu looked between their captain and their new comrade slightly confused.

“Do you guys know each other?” Kaijo asked.

Sakura lowered her gaze from the man sitting across from her. “Yea… we know each other alright. Kakashi why didn't you tell me you were in ANBU, let alone a captain with a spot on your team?!” Sakura practically shouted, her blood boiling.

“I didn't feel a need to,” he said simply and stood, putting his book away.

“Okay I guess you three have had time to talk a little and get to know each other. We will start training again tomorrow at dawn. Sakura, our daily schedule is basically to train in the morning for a couple hours and then you guys can do what ever you want. The exception is if we are on a mission, assigned to guard duty, or if anyone is sick.” Kakashi paused and lifted his wolf mask from his face. “Our code names are as follows. You Sakura will be called Swan from now on when we are on duty or a mission. Kaijo is tiger, Naizu is eagle and I am wolf. Please make sure to remember those names because you will need that knowledge in the future.”

Sakura nodded her understanding, her emerald eyes still glaring daggers at Kakashi.

“well that's about it for today, you guys can go do what ever you want but make sure to be on training ground 5 tomorrow at dawn. See ya!” Kakashi said smiling and waving bye before he disappeared leaving only smoke in his wake.

Kaijo and Naizu turned to look at their new pink-haired team mate.

“How do you know Kakashi?” Naizu asked.

Sakura got up from her chair and put her mask back on. “I'll tell you on the way out,” She said simply and left the room.

Naizu and Kaijo exchanged a look and then got up and followed her out the door.

“He was my sensei when I became a Genin; he was the leader of Team 7 which had me, Uzumaki Naruto, and Uchiha Sasuke in it. After Sasuke left we became Team Kakashi but when he was injured he got replaced with Yamato and we got a new team member Sai. From there I haven't really spoken or seen him until just recently when the Hokage sent us on a mission together,” She explained, giving the short version of her story.

“Wow you had an Uchiha on your team? I thought that the whole clan had been exterminated and there were no Uchiha's left.” Kaijo murmured.

“yea well now there are no Uchiha's left, the only person left on earth with a Sharingan is Kakashi and its better that its that way,” Sakura said coldly.

Naizu exchanged a knowing look with Kaijo and then cleared his throat.

“Well Sakura if you're not busy tonight, we usually go to the bar together, do you want to go?”

Sakura stopped and turned to the others. “Uh yea that sounds cool, how about you come over my house when you're ready to go. I live…”

“We know, we are the one's who came and woke you up for your exam.”

Sakura blinked in surprise. “Then remind me that I owe you one for waking me up so god damn early,” Sakura teased and then disappeared in a shower of pink blossoms.

Kaijo stared at the spot she had just been standing. “Hey what do you think she meant by owing us?”

Naizu just shrugged. “I don't really want to know. Whatever it was it won't be good news for us.”

“Hmm… so what do you think about her?”

The two continued walking, heading for the Hyuuga compound.

“She seems nice. She already has history with Kakashi so I hope that doesn't interfere with any team work… other then that I think she is pretty powerful.”

“Yea, no wonder, I mean she trained under the Hokage herself and Kakashi. Her other team mate Uzumaki Naruto I've heard about him around the village. He is supposed to be that Kyuubi kid and I heard he is an ANBU captain too. She has some friends up in pretty high places.”

“Yea she does. I'm still surprised she knows Neji, he has never mentioned her to me,” Naizu said thoughtfully, his pale eyes giving no hint of the excitement he felt.

“I'm glad we got her as a team mate, she seems cool and she actually jokes around, unlike Kakashi. I swear I wouldn't be surprised if that man…” Kaijo paused when he noticed that Naizu had stopped. Kaijo looked back at his friend, his blue eyes questioning.

“Hey Kaijo I'll meet up with you later, around 9?” Naizu said his eyes trained on the Hyuuga compound.

“Uh yea no problem I guess I'll see you later Hyuuga.” Kaijo waved good bye and started jogging to his own apartment.

Kakashi sat at the bar, a cup of sake in hand. He wasn't usually the type to drink but tonight he felt that he needed the numbing affects of alcohol dearly. He sipped more of the liquid and enjoyed the warm feeling it left behind. He was surprised to say the least when he was called into the Hokage's office early that morning to find out that Sakura had passed and she was being placed on his team. He wanted to decline and convince Tsunade to put her on another team but he didn't bother, once that woman made up her mind there was no changing it. After that he had walked throughout Konoha, a frown plastered on his features. He had thought that he was rid of his former student after the mission but Kami was just not cooperating with him at all. It was going to be hard to have her on his team, they were sure to have a lot of missions and all the time he was going to be forced to spend with her did not make him very happy. He knew that she was a good asset to the team, she was a medic Nin and she was very powerful.

He sipped more sake and closed his eye. `How has my life become so entangled with her's?'

He couldn't believe after all those years of successfully avoiding her, now he was forced to be her captain once again. By the looks of it she was not very happy at that fact either.

He heard a small commotion at the far end of the bar and he turned to look to see what was going on. He saw Kaijo, Naizu, and Sakura all joining a group of other ninja. His eye slipped to Sakura and he couldn't help but stare. Sakura was dressed in her usual Jounin jacket but instead she had tight fitting pants on that showed off her lean legs and the soft curve of her…

Kakashi turned away and downed another cup of sake.

`I need a distraction now…'

Kakashi looked around the bar, his eye scanning for potential prey. He spotted a petite auburn haired woman laughing and flirting with a group of guys at the far end of the bar.

`Hmm that will do I guess. Anything to take my mind off of her…'

Kakashi stood from his stool and made his way to the girl who had just gotten up to go to the bathroom. He approached her and started to talk with her, his eye studying her body language. She was more then a little drunk but he knew that she was definitely interested. A half hour later they left the bar together and stumbled down an alley way behind the bar. Kakashi pressed the woman back into the wall and started to nuzzle her neck gently. She let out a soft sigh and ran her fingers through his hair. He kissed his way down to her chest and pushed the offensive clothing away revealing her soft breast to his eager gaze. He gently suckled her breast through the fabric of his mask, causing her to cry out in pleasure and arch her back pushing her breast more firmly against him. He pulled her skirt above her thighs and freed his engorged length from its confines. He quickly lifted her up and entered her roughly, not caring that they were in a dark and dirty alleyway, he just wanted to escape those green eyes. He slowly thrust into her at a steady rhythm. She kept pace with him easily, meeting him at every thrust. He could feel his pleasure rising and he plunged into her tight heat even faster causing her to moan louder in his ears. She tried to pull down the mask covering his mouth, but he twisted his face from her hands and plunged his head into the crook of her should, thrusting harder. He felt her slick walls start to constrict around his throbbing member and he thrust into her one last time before he felt his orgasm rip through him. Behind his closed eyes all he saw was sparkling green eyes and silky pink hair.

“Sakura…” he gasped just before he leaned heavily against the woman, trying to catch his breath.

He looked back into the deep brown eyes of the woman before him. He saw that she had heard whose name he had called out. She stared at him with sympathy in her eyes before she pushed him away slightly and fixed her clothes.

“Whoever Sakura is, she is a lucky woman,” she said quietly and then slipped out of the alley leaving Kakashi behind in the dark shadows of the alley.

Sakura had noticed Kakashi sitting at the bar the minute she had entered with Kaijo and Naizu. Seemingly against her will, her eyes kept on sneaking looks at him. She couldn't help her wondering eyes, which pissed her off even more. She turned back to her friends determined to try and follow the conversation. After a couple of minutes she once again found her eyes roaming back to Kakashi who had stood up and made his way to a dark haired woman. Her green eyes narrowed as she watched him bend down and whisper something in her ear which made the woman blush prettily and then take his hand. She led him through the bar and out the side door into an alley. Sakura excused herself from the table and followed the path Kakashi had taken. She knew it was wrong and it was none of her business, but she couldn't help it, she was curious. She quickly made her way out the main exit and snuck around the corner to the entrance of the alley. As she drew closer she began to hear little noises. She masked her chakra and snuck closer until she had a full view of what exactly Kakashi was doing with the woman. Sakura's face lit up bright red and she lowered her gaze.

`What am I doing? This is private I shouldn't be here.'

She started to leave but was distracted by the increase in volume of the noises coming from the woman. Sakura looked back at the scene before her and she couldn't help but admire the beautiful elegance Kakashi had.

Her only experience with sex had been a painful one. Hearing the loud passion filled sounds coming from the woman and the low grunts coming from Kakashi she could see that for them it was definitely not painful. She had always wondered what it would be like to have sex with another man and feel something other then guilt and pain. Her eyes took in the scene before her. Some part of her wished that she was the woman that was in Kakashi's arms. She shook her head berating her self and left the alleyway feeling her chest tighten when she heard Kakashi cry out a name. She was too far away to hear whose name he had said but she guessed it was the woman that was currently in his arms.

`Why do I feel so depressed suddenly, its not like it's any of my business who Kakashi sleeps with…. Why am I letting this bother me so damn much?'

Sakura made her way back into the bar fully intending to drink away the tight feeling in her chest that she had a sneaking suspicion was jealousy.

The next morning Sakura was fully regretting drinking so much last night. She rubbed her temple as the pounding in her head increased each step she took towards the training grounds. When she got there she was the first one, so she sat and leaned against a tree and gazed at the sky as the stars started to disappear and the sun took over the moon. She hadn't realized she'd fallen asleep until she was shaken awake by Kaijo. She looked up at him blearily and yawned stretching her aching muscles.

“You still tired from last night? You did drink a lot,” Kaijo asked thoughtfully.

Even though she couldn't see his eyes due to his mask, she could still hear the concern in his voice.

`He reminds me so much of Naruto.'

After another minute Naizu appeared and they both sat down next to Sakura knowing they had a long wait before them. Thirty minutes later Kakashi finally showed up, his face glued to his book.

“You're late Kakashi,” Sakura almost growled.

Kakashi put his book away and smiled, his hand traveling to his head to scratch nervously.

“Yea about that, I ran into an old woman that…”

“Forget it; we all know that's a lie anyways. Can we just get started,” Sakura stood, radiating annoyance.

Kakashi cleared his throat and turned to his teammates. “Well you two know the drill, how about you guys partner up and I'll partner up with Sakura. We will fight for three hours.” He said and jumped back into the bushes forming seals.

Both teams battled hard and to their fullest abilities, but in the end Kakashi and Sakura won, leaving Kaijo and Naizu both scowling. During the training they could see the obvious tension between their captain and their new team mate. It frustrated them to no end that even though there was obvious miscommunication between the two, they had still gotten beat.

“Since you guys lost, do your usual laps. See you guys tomorrow,” Kakashi said never letting his eyes drift to the annoyed female next to him.

Kakashi turned his back to the group, pulling out his book from the kunai pouch at his belt. “Sakura can you please come with me we need to discuss something,” He said never looking at Sakura.

Sakura looked back at her other teammates, a question clear in her green eyes. The two ninja just shrugged their shoulders and shook their heads not knowing what their captain was up to either. Sakura waved goodbye to them as they started running in the other direction and turned to follow her captain out of the training grounds. She followed him silently until he stopped in an unfamiliar clearing and turned to face her.

He put away his book and looked her straight in the eyes. “Sakura… whatever hatred you have against me you can't bring those feelings to our team. As a team we have to be able to work together like a well oiled machine. The missions that we usually deal with don't leave any room for miscommunication and if you keep on disregarding my instructions you will end up getting us killed on a mission,” he said, his voice deadly serious.

Sakura looked away slightly ashamed at her childish behavior. He was right she had been only thinking about her own feelings towards him, not about the good of the team. She looked back up at Kakashi and nodded in understanding.

“Gomen, it won't happen again,” She said simply.

She decided that whatever these feelings she has started to develop around this man, she will keep them locked up inside. If she did let them get to her, it would only bring her and her team trouble and that was the last thing she wanted to happen. Her melancholy gaze traveled back up to Kakashi. Images of the previous night flashed through her mind and she could feel heat start to travel to her cheeks. Knowing she was blushing she lowered her head quickly and incoherently mumbled an excuse to escape from Kakashi.

“Wait Sakura…”

Sakura paused in her retreat and clenched her fists at her sides. Kakashi looked away from her, letting his hand drop back down to his side.

“I'll see you tomorrow,” He said simply, then left.

Sakura's smooth brow wrinkled in confusion but she shrugged her shoulders, happy that Kakashi had left. She walked slowly out of the clearing, heading back to her house.

-0o0-

Sakura was rudely awakened by loud knocking on her door. She growled in frustration, feeling that someone was against her having a good night's sleep. She glanced at her clock and saw that it was only 6:33 in the morning. She quickly put her ANBU uniform on, knowing that whoever was knocking on her door had something to do with ANBU. She dragged her self to the door and opened it to find her assumption was correct. Naizu stood at her door, his arms folded before him.

“About time! We are summoned to the Hokage's office, we have a mission,” He said quickly while Sakura closed her door and followed him towards HQ. Once they reached the Hokage's office they found that their two other teammates where already standing in the office.

“Good you guys are here. I apologize for how early it is, but this mission is important,” Tsunade said, her usual serious brown eyes dull with tiredness. Sakura studied her sensei worriedly, seeing that the older woman did indeed look very tired.

“Intelligence has informed me of ex sound nin beginning to rise up again. They will be meeting with a group of rouge missing Nin and I want you four to intercept this meeting at all costs. I do not want the Sound village to grow in power again. They will be meeting on the outskirts of the old Sound Nin country. The meeting will be taking place tomorrow night, you are to get there first and kill any ninja you encounter. You are to leave now.”

They each nodded in understanding and turned to leave.

“Team wolf be careful and make sure to get in and out fast. I don't want Konoha's involvement in this known. Good luck,” She said.

The team made their way out of the office and down the halls.

“I assume you already have your weapons on you, so we will be leaving now. We will be moving fast, it takes a day to get to that location and we have less then that, so we will not stop for camp,” Kakashi said as they left HQ.

The team made their way quickly past Konoha's borders by mid morning. They traveled quickly and quietly, all on alert. By the time they had reached their designated location the sun had completely disappeared from the sky. Kakashi stopped on a branch above a clearing were they saw two different groups of men and women meeting. They all looked like ex ninja and Sakura knew that her and her team were more then outnumbered. It looked as if there would be five ninja for each of them.

`That's fine with me; I've been too bored lately anyways.'

She slipped five Senbon from her kunai pouch and crouched low waiting for the signal to attack. Kakashi's eye scanned the clearing, seeing that the ninja were not yet aware of their presence. He turned back to his waiting team. “Naizu are there any other ninja roaming around that we can't see?”

Naizu activated his Byakugan and checked their surroundings, finding no other ninja just the ones in the clearing.

“No all of them are in the clearing.”

“Okay good, go set traps around the clearing so that any who get away will be stopped. Meet back here in five minutes.”

They all nodded and took off starting to make traps around the clearing. Five minutes later they returned to their original spot. Kakashi lifted his hand and gave the signal to attack and the four ANBU quickly made their way into the clearing. Kaijo was the first to attack, taking out three of the ninja in one stroke from his sword which was made from fire. Sakura threw her five Senbon, hitting five different ninja who fell to the floor instantly, dead. The clearing erupted in chaos as the ninja shouted and screamed as more were killed. Some got past the dark shadows that kept killing their comrades and were caught in the numerous traps outside of the clearing.

Kakashi sliced his kunai through two more necks and looked around to see that the number was already down to half. Pleased, he turned to throw more kunai at the fleeing ninja. Kaijo and Naizu were making a competition out of the mission and each was counting how many ninja they had killed. Kaijo sliced his blazing blade through another body and turned to his partner smiling. Not to be outdone, Naizu killed his own ninja. Sakura chuckled seeing her two comrades little game.

`Yep they definitely remind me of two other people I knew.'

She spun around and punched her hand through a ninja's stomach and then snapped another's neck. She had no qualms about killing anymore. After she became a Jounin she had gone on plenty of missions that required her to kill. She had basically freaked out for her first time, but she had gotten over it and now it didn't phase her one bit. She drew out of her thoughts and kicked another man in the head snapping his neck instantly. She felt her senses tingle and the hair on the back of her neck rise as she felt her personal bubble being invaded. She spun around just in time to receive a hard punch to her stomach. She doubled over in pain feeling the damaged muscles react painfully to the hit. Her green eyes burned in rage and she forced chakra to her feet and hands and caught the man's neck in her hand. She squeezed down on the jugular vein until she felt the satisfying feel of his spine being crushed under her hold. She threw the lifeless body to the ground and looked around to see that Kakashi had finished his last ninja as well.

“Good job everyone. Look through the clothes and see if they had any scroll that we can bring back to HQ. Bring all the bodies to the middle and clean up the mess. We can't leave any sign of our presence here.”

Sakura moved to follow Kakashi's orders but felt the beginnings of pain run through her. She winced but ignored the pain and started to drag the dead bodies to the middle of the clearing. Once they had all been gathered she performed a seal.

`Katon Goukakyuu no Jutsu!'

The bodies instantly caught on fire and were totally incinerated by her fire ball. Pleased with her work, she left to help undo the traps they had set. The team was done with the whole operation twenty minutes later and they started to head out. They were moving fast through the forest but Sakura started to fall behind the group, breathing heavier then normal. A light sheen of sweat had started to cover her body and she grit her teeth against the pain that was pulsing through her.

`Damn that punch caused even more damage then I thought.'

Her hand clenched into her stomach, feeling another wave of pain. She stopped on a branch and leaned heavily against the trunk, breathing hard.

Naizu glanced behind him and stopped, seeing Sakura leaning against a tree. He turned and went back to her.

“Sakura what's wrong? Did you get hit?”

Sakura shook her head and doubled over as another wave of pain ripped through her.

Naizu watched as her face lost all color and became sweaty. He quickly activated his Byakugan and scanned her body for any injuries. When he reached her stomach his eyes widened as he saw the amount of damage to her muscles and tissue.

`Dear god how is she still standing?'

“Wolf, Tiger, come back swan is injured,” he said into his microphone as he swept Sakura into his arms. Her body was trembling violently and her green eyes were filled with pain.

“Put me down Naizu, I can walk,” she whispered fighting weakly against his chest.

Naizu held her tighter to his chest and continued running to catch up with Kaijo and Kakashi. When he caught up to them, Kakashi's eye widened as he stared at the pale woman in Naizu's arms.

“What's wrong with her, she seemed fine before.”

“The muscles, organs and tissue in her stomach are badly damaged, we need to get her to a hospital quickly,” Naizu said and took off again.

When they reached Konoha Kakashi ordered Naizu and Kaijo to go take Sakura to the hospital and he would go inform Tsunade.

`You better be okay Sakura,' Kakashi thought his heart beating unusually fast in his chest.
