A Puppets Love

Chapter 2

"Will you get that for me, please?" he stood up. "Sure" he opened the door and there stood Sasori, looking worried. I look back down at the paperwork in front of me and listen what they are saying. "Have you seen Sakura?" aww, how cute, he notices when I'm not there. "Right here, Sasori. Please, come in." I say in an authoritative voice "What do you need?" I ask while turning back to my work. "Please close the door." I look up and see Sasori. "What are you doing? That's Pein's job." I sigh. "I know. He's taking a small break." I see the confusion in his eyes. "That didn't answer my question, Sakura-chan. Why are you doing his work? Does Pein know?" he whined. I wonder if he forgot that Zetsu was still here. "Because; a) these have to be done by a certain time and if they are to be done by that time, then there can be no stopping, b) I do this when I get bored. c) his desk and office is a mess and needs to be organized. d) I need a break from the madness that I call home. I love you all like family, but I need some alone time. It's no big deal. You can't tell anyone." I explained. "No big deal? Sakura, you are not the leader. That's his job, not yours." I sigh again, while closing and opening my eyes again. "I know, Sasori-kun, I know. If you can be quiet, then you can stay. Heck, you can make conversation with Zetsu when he gets back." he looked happy, then he looked confused. "What is he doing?" I smiled a small smile. "Doing me a favor. He is to watch over you guys, while I work." I could tell he was thinking. "Can I be your assistant? Please?" he is so cute when he begs. "Ok. So, why did you need me?" he seemed to be trying to remember why he needed me. "I couldn't find you, Hidan called Itachi and Deidara girls, so now he is pretty much trapped in the Tsukiyomi. Itachi said that when he is done with torturing Hidan, than Deidara can kick his a**." I really want to hurt those idiots. I really do. "Ok. Go gather those three, so I can "talk" to them. You may want wait outside once they get here. I'm locking the door." he seemed to be terrified by what I said. When he left, I made a mental list of how I'm going to kill them. Ten minutes later, there was a knock on the door, in came the three idiots I wanted to see. "You needed us leader-sama?" I smirk at hearing this. " 'Hmm...I like being called leader-sama'. Now why are you trying to kill each other? That's my job." I made my voice sound like Pein's voice. I could tell I scared them. "Hidan called me and Itachi girls. We took the natural response,un. Have you seen Sakura,un?" I sighed. Man I seem to be doing that a lot lately."'I need to get Pein. Or these idiots will find out.' Stay here. I will be back. Sasori," he opened the door and stuck his head in. "Yes, leader-sama?" I smirked. I love being called 'leader-sama'. "Stay here and make sure they don't leave. Put chakra strings on them, just to be sure." I see him smirk at me. He better do what I told him to. "Of course, leader-sama." he walked in, I walked out. I make it to Pein's room without being seen. I knock on his bedroom door, he opens it. He doesn't look happy, I think it was because of all the noise. "What do you need Sakura-chan? It must important if you came all the way over here to get me." I smile up at him. "To me important, to you? I don't know. Can I come in?" he must be wondering what I'm doing all the way over on this side of the base, "Sure." he stepped aside to let me in. I walk into his room and sit on his bed. "You see, I kinda told Zetsu and Sasori what I do when nobody can find me, now they work for me," I see how proud he is. "That's great. Is that all?" I giggled at how childish he could be at times. "No. That would be a stupid reason to wake you up. That could wait till tomorrow, Hidan called Itachi and Deidara girls, they tried to kill each other. Knowing them, they probably destroyed half the base. I left them with Sasori. They are currently in his chakra strings in your office. I would love to hurt them, but then my secret will get out. Will you do it for me?" he seemed to be happy that I got those morons in one place. Once I was done explaining the situation to him, he left. I got up and followed him. We got to his office, when he entered he seemed to be pleased with my work. HIs desk and office was in order and neat, then he saw Sasori doing what I told him to. He walked up to them, they were shaking. Then he told Sasori to let them go. When he did, I was tackled by said morons. "Get. Off. Of. Me." If they don't get off me soon, I'm going to lose conciseness. I can't breath with three grown men on me. Sasori and Pein seemed to understand that I needed air because they looked worried. I closed my eyes. After a few minutes I could breath again. When I opened my eyes, Pein and Sasori were standing in front of me with Hidan, Itachi, and Deidara chained to the wall, looking like they got hit by a train. I burst into laughter, which I received weird looks for. When I calmed down, I had to ask. "Do you want me to heal you?" all three nodded their heads. "That would be great. Can I go first?" Itachi asked, I thought about it for a minute. "Nope, Deidara is going first." I looked over at Deidara. He looked like I just told him his art is better than everyone else's. "Thank you, un." I walked up to him and said, "But, you will all have to call me "Sakura-sama". Do you agree?" I looked at them and they all nodded. So I did a few hand signs and they were instantly healed. I looked back at Sasori and Pein. They seemed amazed that I would asked to be called that. "You can let them go now, Sakura-chan." I nodded. "Hai" I let them go and they ran out. "So, can I go back to bed now, Sakura-chan?" I nod my head. When he left, Sasori pulled me into a bone crushing hug. "Do you think you can take a few minutes off to spend time with me? Or at least come and eat?" I think for a few minutes. "I could eat. How about you go and get us something to eat and bring it in here. That way we won't be bothered." he seemed to consider this. "Hai." He smiled at me and walked out the door. Right at that time, Zetsu came in through the wall. "Anything new?" he shook his head. "No. Tobi wants ice cream, though. Itachi keeps telling him no." I smiled lightly. "Tell Itachi, I said he can have a little." he nodded and disappeared. Now I'm alone. I wonder what insanity awaits me when Pein decides he wants to be the leader again. Oh well. I hear footsteps and in walks Tobi and Sasori. Tobi runs up to me screaming, 'Tobi's a good boy! Tobi's a good boy!' while crushing me in one of his, hugs-of-death, "Hello. So Tobi what do you need?" he finally lets me go. "Tobi wants ice cream and nobody will give Tobi any." I sigh. Why do I get the group of idiots? "Alright, lets go get you some ice cream." he nods happily, running out the door yelling 'Tobi gets ice cream!'. Sometimes I wonder how in the hell did he get into the akatsuki. The world may never know. "Tobi, stop yelling!" I yell as I run after him, leaving behind a confused and annoyed Sasori. After Tobi had his ice cream, I head back to the office. I open the door, and I see Sasori. He looks pissed, so I did the only thing a smart person would do, I got the hell out of there. Before I could get out, I felt something tighten around my arms, legs, and waist. Then I was spun around to come face-to-face with none other than Sasori. "Hello to you to. So what are you doing?" he smirked and replied, "What does it look like I'm doing? Sakura-sama," his smirk left his face and was replaced by seriousness "Yes, Sasori-kun?" he took a deep breath "Can we get married next week? I mean we've been engaged for a few months now. So when is the wedding?" he asked. To say I was shocked, was an understatement, I was about to faint, but I refrained from doing so. "How about...next week? Then I can tell you something important." I smiled at him, while he looked confused. I sighed "Come here so I can tell you." as he got closer, I felt the fear of what his reaction will be. Would he hate me? Would he leave me? Now he is close enough for me to bend down and whisper two words in his ear. "I'm... pregnant " he looked shocked. Just when I thought he didn't care, he pulled me into a hug. When he let go, I saw the biggest smile I have ever seen. To tell you the truth, it scared me a little. "That's great! I have to tell everybody." I giggled at his reaction. He looks like he just received the best gift of a life time. "Then go. Tell them. Be warned, they may or may not try to kill you."( _l_ >.< _l_ =p A/N: I don't know. I saw it on youtube and thought it was a little funny and creative) he looked like he just got a new puppet. It was adorable to watch. He ran out of the office with me still in the his chakra strings. He runs really fast when he is excited. I think I'm starting to get sick. "Can you let me go? I'm getting dizzy" he turned around, shock, then a wave of embarrassment. "Sorry, Sakura-chan. I kinda forgot you were there." he rubbed the back of his head nervously. I giggled a little. I stop when I felt three familiar chakra's. "Hey, Ita-kun, Zetsu-kun, and Tobi-kun. What's up?" they looked at me for a minute, then they started to blush a little. Well, I think Tobi was blushing, he always wears that mask. It took me a moment to realize why they were blushing. I looked down and blushed. Why you may ask? My shirt kinda slid down. Sasori must've noticed too because, one minute I'm in chakra strings, the next, I'm in my/Sasori's room. "Sorry." I look at him and smile. "It's ok. I mean they didn't see anything except my bindings I use for a bra. That, alone, covers my entire chest. No harm done." he still didn't look convinced. So I walked up to him put my arms around his neck. He put his hands on my hips. I pulled him close to me, kissed him, then whispered in his ear. When I pulled back, he was smirking. "Can't wait till tonight." I lightly hit him for that comment. He picked me up and took me back to Pein's office. "Don't you have something to do?" I asked him. He nodded and left, when I turn back around, I see Pein sitting there, looking at me at his desk, "What?" I asked him. He just smirked and said, "Nothing. Just that you're pregnant and are doing my work." I looked at him for a minute and laughed nervously while scratching the back of my head. He looked at me "You know, pregnant women should not be stressing out." I raise my eyebrow at him. "*sigh* Listen it's super easy. Not rocket science. I did the hokage's work, that was a little hard. So, you see, I'm fine. Now get back to work, Pein-sama" he smirks at me. I instantly get worried. "What?" he looks at me with an evil glint in his eyes. "Oh, nothing, Sakura-sama" I laugh a little. "Can you pass that on to the others? It will be annoying if they keep asking why I'm being called 'Sakura-sama'. Honestly they can be idiots sometimes." he chuckles a bit. "Yes, but they are your idiots. I hate to admit it but, you have better control over them than I do." I giggled a little. Then stop when I felt three familiar chakra signatures. "Shit" I whispered. When I looked at Pein he had a look on his face that said 'take-care-of-them-now'. I simply nodded my head. I ran out of the office, out of the base, and took out my big axe. "Come out, right now. Naruto, Sasuke, and Kakashi, I know you're there. I can sense your chakra." I yelled out. I waited patiently for a few minutes. When they finally decided to come out, I had a plan. I was going to distract them with a clone, then when they are running low on chakra, I will come out and tie them up. I will have to knock them out and erase their memories. I perform the necessary signs for a the clone faster than the sharingan can follow. When I have my clone, I decided to ask what they wanted before I fight. "What do you want? How did you find this place? Answer me, you have five minutes for an explanation. Understood?" I looked at them and they nodded, showing that they understood. I waited a few minutes then sighed. They were waiting for me to give them the go ahead to continue. I nodded my head to show that I was listening. Kakashi stepped up. "You see, Sakura-san..." I cut him off. "Sakura-sama." I could tell they were shocked. "My apologies, Sakura-sama, anyway back to what I was saying. After you killed the hokage and council, left that note stating that you did that so Naruto can become hokage and to pick a council that will be better than the last, everything the original council members were not. We just wanted to see if it was true." I looked at them for a moment. Might as well tell them the truth. I nodded my head. "*sigh* Hai. I did. But only because I wanted to make Naruto's dream come true. Even though you all saw me as weak, I was holding back and I was on a mission. Naruto worked hard to make his dream real. That's why I did it. The council made so many wrong mistakes. I want to recreate Kohona into something peaceful. Where the council can understand that they have many mistakes. I also wanted to get rid of Konoha's dark secrets. Naruto, I have respect for you, I was trying to protect you. In all honesty, though, you are my family. Along with the Akatsuki. You believed in me and didn't doubt me. You took your time to help me train. You treated me like I mattered, and that is why I did what I did. Even after Tsunade trained me, she still thought I was weak. I got sick of it. Do you know what it's like to be called weak, useless, and be treated like you don't matter? It sucks a lot. Now that you have your reasoning of why I did it, I must knock you out, and erase your memory of where the base is." I smiled at them. They looked skeptical. I sighed. I roll my eyes at them. "Are you going to hurt us, Sakura-chan...I mean Sakura-sama?" Naruto asked. I giggle at them. They really are idiots. I smirk. " Sakra-chan to you, Naruto, and no. I will return you to the leaf when I'm done. So don't worry. I promise you won't get hurt, I'll make sure of it." I smile lightly at them. They nod their heads. "Ok, first, Sasuke-teme. come here." he walked over to me where I then proceeded to tell him to lay down and close his eyes. I put a little chakra in my index and middle fingers, touched Sasuke's forehead and watched him go into a deep sleep. I look up at Naruto and Kakashi. "Follow me because I'm not knocking you out. I only did it to Sasuke-teme because he knocked me out, well that and he would be difficult if he was awake. Now will one of you carry Sasuke-teme for me?" Kakashi nodded, picked up Sasuke, and threw him over his shoulder. While I'm leading the way back to Konoha, I can sense Itachi, Sasori, Pein, and Kisame's chakra. They are following me. Great. (note the sarcasm) When we are just outside of Konoha, I walked up to Naruto, did a few handsigns and kissed his forehead. After Naruto, I walk up to Kakashi and do the same thing. Then came the part I hated, but I knew I had to. I walk up to Sasuke, perform a different jutsu along with the hand signs to the same one I did to Naruto and Kakashi. I kissed Sasuke's forehead. He smiled in his sleep which made me smile. I looked at Naruto and Kakashi, who had one eyebrow raised, questioning what I just did to their teammate. I explain what I did. "I did a jutsu that I used to do on myself when I had a nightmare and/or one my patients, young and old died. What it does is, makes the person this is being performed on, believe that It was nothing but a dream, leaving a small headache. Anyway it replaces the bad dreams with very good dreams. Anything the dreamer desires. Also I did something else to him that will make everyone happy. I created it myself. It is permanent, except the user also has to share their best memory with said person. In this case, I shared the memories of when we were all happy. And no, this jutsu is not to be repeated to anyone. You two are the first to witness it. Not even my patients have seen it." They smile as I give them this information. I can't help but smile with them, as well. "So, Sakura-chan, is that why they call you the best?" Naruto asks me. "Yes. That and all my hard work. Anyway, I have to go check on my idiots. Leader-sama will end up killing them if I am not there to keep them out of trouble. Anyway, peace. I have to go now, and don't follow me." as I turn around to head back to base, someone grabs my shoulder. When I turn my head to see who has my shoulder, I see a smiling Naruto. "Yes,Naruto?" he keeps smiling at me. I'm getting a little creeped out now. "If you want, you and the Akatsuki can live in the leaf village, or you can have unlimited access to the leaf village. Once I explain to Gaara, you can go to Suna. Sound like a deal?" I think about it. "Naruto, I would love to, but, it's not my decision to make. I'll talk to leader-sama. Ok?" I look up into the trees and nod my head. Knowing they would understand. Pein, Itachi, Kisame, and Sasori jumped down from the tree. "I think we should move into the leaf. I mean, Sakura-sama is, as of now, the new leader of the Akatsuki. I mean she already does the paperwork, can make those idiots behave, and has a few working for her already. Besides, Sakura-sama, you are pregnant. We need to have more protection, than what we got." Knowing I already lost this argument, I nod my head in defeat. "You're the leader?! That's great. How about a peace treaty, we protect each other. Besides with you being the only person in the village that knows how to have fun. You'll go to Ichiraku ramen with me and let me have fun before I have to go back to being serious. Please, sakura-chan?" His azure blue eyes got bigger and he started pouting. He knew I can't resist. I sigh in defeat. "Fine. But Ino, Hinata, TenTen, and other people who had hurt me, must stay away from me. Also, you know how I said I always wanted to be a sensei," he nods. "well I want me my very own genin team. No little brats. Please, I beg of you, I don't want to end up planning ways to torture my team. If there is a mini-Sasuke anywhere in the academy, I want them on my team. Deal?" I hold out my hand to Naruto, who seems to be thinking it over. When he comes to a decision, he grabs my hand and pulls me into a hug. I hug back, oh how I missed his hugs. "Thanks, baka." He pulls back and I smile at him. He grins back at me, "You're welcome, Sakura-chan. To tell you the truth, I missed my sister/best friend. I want to know who is the father of your baby?" I freeze a minute. I'm not sure I should tell him. "You promise to not freak out on the poor guy?" I ask him. He nods. "Ok. This may sound crazy, but, you know that Akatsuki member that I 'killed', well he is my fiance and the father, Sasori." He looks so calm. I'm pleased with this reaction. Naruto walked up to him and said, "You better take care of her. And good luck. I had to deal with Sakura-chan's temper and I'm surprised that I'm still alive." He laughs. Maybe I should tell him I didn't use chakra. "Because, baka, I didn't use chakra. If I used it, then lets just say you would be six-foot underground." He seemed to pale at this. "I will take care of her. Don't worry." Sasori says to try and take away the tension. I turn to the other three. "Go back to base and tell everyone of the good news. Please." They nodded and ran off. I turn back to Sasori, Naruto, and Kakashi with a sleeping Sasuke on his shoulder. "Well, I think we should get back to base. Um...can I request something?" Sasori asks Naruto. "Sure. What is you request?" Sasori seems to be think if this is a good idea. "Will you build us a base? We kinda need somewhere to live, and Sakura-chan's house is small." I smile at him. Before Naruto could answer, I thought I would give them an option. "I do have the Haruno mansion. My parents had an underground hideout built in. They thought I was insane, so that's why it's there. Anyway, I went there a few weeks ago, and changed the seal. Now it opens to Akatsuki's chakra and mine as well. Naruto, I had you added too." They seemed to be taking this news very easily. They both nodded. "Now we need to head back to base, before someone ends up destroying the base or killing each other." I looked at Naruto to see him trying to stifle his laughter. I started to laugh at his miserable failure to conceal his laughter, which in turn caused both Sasori and Naruto to laugh. When the laughter finally cease to exist, I ran and hugged Naruto, then walked back to Sasori. Together we headed back to base. When we got there, the lights were off. I turned them on and when I turned around, I was glomped by Tobi. "Tobi, will you please get off of me?" I said in the nicest way possible, because right now, I really want to hurt Tobi. "Ok, Sakura-sama." he got up and ran to his 'Deidara-sempai'. I walk over to Pein and ask "What is all this? I only asked you to inform them." Pein looked at me smiling. He rubbed the back of his neck nervously. "Yeah, I know Sakura-sama. I told them exactly what you told me to tell them, at first they objected to moving to Konoha, but I 'convinced' them." he said with an evil smirk. I laughed at him. I really don't want them to hate me because I want to go to Konoha. "Ok, if any of you have any objections to going to Kohona, please raise your hand." I looked around and noticed that all of them really didn't want to go, I sighed and said "*sigh* Alright. I'll tell Naruto. But we will still take missions from them. Also we will still be taking our own missions, just like before. Understood?" I look around and see everyone nodding in agreement. I walked into the kitchen and asked what they wanted because it's, like, 4 in the freaking' morning. Everyone answers with pancakes except for Sasori and Pein. Pein wanted some coffee and Sasori said he wanted to sleep. So I made some pancakes and got Pein his coffee. I was exhausted myself, so I too, went to bed. When I got to the that leads to my room, I was suddenly tackled by an orange and black blur. "Hello Tobi. Can you get off me now, I would like to got to sleep." He looks up and says, "Can Tobi sleep with Sakura-sama? Tobi had a nightmare and now Tobi is scared." I have to say 'yes', he is too adorable to say 'no' to. I walk into my room, after Tobi let me go, to find Sasori already asleep. So I crawl in very carefully. Tobi took after my example, and did what I did. He lays down, so I put my arm around him. I whisper soothing words to him. "It'll be okay Tobi, I'm here. Just go to sleep and in the morning, that nightmare with be turned into a wonderful dream. Okay?" He nods. "Sakura-sama, can I call you mommy?" he asked me. my breath hitched. "Of course. Now go to sleep, okay? I'll protect you." I whisper to him. When I was sure, he was asleep, I took of his mask, performed my jutsu that did to Sasuke, Naruto, and kakashi. Then I pressed my lips to his forehead. Once I did that, I left his mask off. Sasori turned over to me, wrapped his arms around my waist, then snuggled closer into my back. " -whisper- Hey, I heard everything. I will allow this, until the baby is born, then we will need to share our bed to both. That's gonna be a lot of space taken up. That's okay, you can sleep on top of me. What do you say, hime? I blush because he hasn't called me 'hime' in a very long time. I look down at Tobi for a minute and can't help but smile a little. He really is just like a child. "Ok. (sigh) He really is going to call me mommy isn't he?" all I recieved was a nod and small smirk. "Im so happy. I get to practice, yay. Tobi is clinging to me like his life depends on it. Should I be worried?"
