This takes place a bit before they notice Sakura is gone, and at the time skip is when it's normal time.

|Sakura's POV|

I knew everyone would be panicking after Hinata went on the slip n' slide and they found me gone, but at the moment I couldn't care less. Currently I was tied to Karin's bedpost. Yup.

The four she-devils tied my there and to say I was slightly upset that no one realized my absence was an understatement. It hurt me quite a bit, but I can't blame them, they're distracted with enjoying themselves. But that isn't the reason I couldn't care less, I wasn't crying because my friends didn't notice, nor was I crying because Karin whipped me twice with her spiked belt, I was crying because earlier today I got a letter saying both my parents were hit by a bus, a bus literally crashed, and plowed, through my house. My parents are gone, my house is gone, I still had so many things there, memories. I didn't bother with trying to move from my restraints, I just sat there and cried.

~time skip brought to you by Karin's hair dye~

I had actually decided to move when I hear Ino and the others, minus Sasuke and the for she-devils, shouting my name. I successfully wriggled loose from the ropes and hobbled downstairs and met them on the outdoor pathway.

"You guys needed me?" I ask innocently.

"WHERE WERE YOU? WE WERE WORRIED!" Ino launches herself on me and I wince when she comes in contact with my whipped back.

"Oh my god Sakura! What is this?!" Ino looks at my back in disbelief.

Oh, was I still wearing my bikini? Heh, whoops.

The others look at my back as Ino spins me around but I quickly turn back.

"Don't worry about it guys! I tripped and fell earlier today when I was standing on a lava rock at the Koi pond, it scratched up my back pretty bad so I decided not to go on the slip n' slide because I didn't want paint in the cuts" I lie quickly

"So why are your eyes puffy and pink" TenTen points out seriously.

"Oh.....that....." I trail off

Should I tell them about my parents? Well I know that TenTen doesn't have parents, neither does Naruto or Sasuke, as well as Neji, Hinata doesn't have a mom, and other that that I'm pretty sure everyone's families are intact. Screw it, I'll tell them.

"Well I may or may not have gotten a letter earlier today...." I trail off once more.

"A-and?" Hinata asks quietly

"It said that a bus crashed into my house, plowing it down and killing my parents, and my mom was pregnant" I say while I finding the ground suddenly very attractive.

"Oh my god" whimpers Ino as she hugs- no, strangles me. When I wince again though she pulls away.

I cover up my sorrow with a painfully fake smile and I can tell everyone sees through it. Suddenly I feel a cold hand on my lower back and I shiver. I then snap my head to the side to see Sasuke standing there.

"Um what're you doing?" I ask nervously

"This don't look like scrapes and small cuts from a rock" he says coldly

Is he concerned? No he'd be more concerned about how a tomato is growing than how my health is.

"I clean up nicely?" I say through gritted teeth

Wait why was I trying to cover up for the evil Barbie dolls? Not sure. No going back now.

"They look like precise cuts, not uneven like a rock" Sasuke continues.

"All that matters is that I'm fine. I don't see why you care, we may be in the same team but you don't have to fret over my health, I can take care of myself." I snap at the Uchiha

Was it just me or did an emotion flash in those onyx eyes of his? Pfft. Whatever.

"Tch" is the only response I get.

"Well see you guys around" I walk back into my shared hotel room and savor the moments of quiet alone time before Ino, TenTen, and Hinata return.

P.S Hey Future Fairy Shippuden here! Heh the cries up there, idk what I'm doing with meh life. Well anyways, I'm going back to school tomorrow as a new term begins, meaning I may be updating less or updating less decent short chapters.. I'll try to maintain a steady flow of satisfactory updates but I can't make any promises since my new grade level is going to be a lot harder and a lot more time consuming. I'll try my hardest as captain of the Shipper Squad! *salutes awkwardly* uhm at ease?

~bye again
