The Monster Within Me

Chapter 21: Had Enough

"Take care of Koori' s training while I'm gone." Sakura told Hidan, making him look at her in confusion. "Where the hell are you f**king going?!" Hidan asked. "To the one who caused their pain." Sakura said, turning on her heel.

"Leader." Sakura said, barging in his office. "What is it?" Pein asked, raising an eyebrow. "What was Karin and Suigetsu's mission?" Sakura asked. "To escort a very important client past leaf." Pein said, making Sakura's eyes widen. "So it is her." Sakura whispered as she walked out of the office with no more words said. "Wait. Why did you ask?" Pein asked, making Sakura stop. "Revenge." She said, walking out.

Sakura ran at full speed towards leaf, fury igniting inside her, not an hour later, she reached the village. She casually walked towards the gate.  "Report to the hokage! Sakura Haruno has been spotted!" The guards stated. Not a minute later, anbus, jounins and the hokage and her assistant came running to where Sakura is

"Tsunade!" Sakura shouted, glaring fiercely at the said lady. "Capture her! Dead or alive." Tsunade said, eying Sakura intensely as the jounin and anbu started running towards Sakura. Sakura sent chakra filled fists here and there, sending ninjas everywhere. "What did you do to Karin and Suigetsu?!" Sakura asked as she punched another one.

"I was training on using my medical ninjutsu in the battlefield. Then they came at a right time." Tsunade said, ticking Sakura off. "First, you made me believe a lie. Second, you try to destroy the only family member I have left. Then, you harm my friends." Sakura said monotonously, her hair and eyes gradually turning to white and a deep shade of blue.

Tsunade's eyes widened, but right before she could utter a single word, Sakura raised her hand at chin level, causing Tsuande to loose control on the body. "I'll kill you." Sakura said.

Sakura jumped away when she saw a familiar blonde boy try to hit her with the rasengan. "I'm not going to allow that, dattebayo!" Naruto said, partially activating the nine tailed fox. Naruto sent yet another rasengan on Sakura's way. She jumped away, her blue eyes widened as she felt another chakra behind her.

Sakura did a replacement jutsu. 'That would've killed me.' Sakura thought as she saw Kakashi inflict his chidori on a tree trunk. "It's not to late to come back, Sakura." Kakashi said, making Sakura laugh coldly. "Me? Come back to the so-called home that lied to me? Not in a hundred years." Sakura said, sensing Shizune running towards Sakura. She turned but it was too later, Shizune ran towards her with one of her poisoned senbons, successfully hitting Sakura's arm. Sakura cursed at her carelessness, knowing full well what Shizune's poisons could do.

Sakura raised her hand at chin level yet again. But a few seconds later, Sakura felt the poison take a toll in her body. Sakura dropped on her knees, not feeling her limbs at this point, her hair and eyes slowly returning to normal. "Face it, Sakura, you lost." Tsunade said, about to grab Sakura's arm, but was stopped when a kunai was thrown in front of Tsunade.

"Not another step towards the pink brat." A cold voice said. Everyone looked at the source of the voice and saw the redhead that was supposed to be six feet underground right now. Sasori attached chakra strings to each of the leaf shinobi right before they could even make a move.

Sasori ran towards Sakura and carried her bridal style. He turned to the direction of the base and started running at full speed right after he retracted the strings. "Brat, let's go." Sasoru said through a walkie-talkie. With that a loud explosion was heard at the other side of the village. "Roger that, un." Deidara said as he looked down at the result of his art.

Tsunade cursed at this. "Kakashi, Shizune. Go towards the explosion. Naruto and I will take care of those two." Tsunade said. "Hai!" Kakashi and Shizune said, running inside the village. With that, Naruto and Tsunade followed Sasori and Sakura.

Deidara detonated another bomb and flew away on his clay bird. "Art is a bang, un!" He told himself with a smirk on his face as he flew away.

"You troublesome pink brat. Everybody in the base panicked when they found out you rushed here alone." Sasori said, not looking at her. "I'm sorry." Sakura whispered, gripping Sasori's shirt as tears started falling. "I'm useless." She said. "You're far from that. You managed to kill me once." Sasori said, giving her a small smile.

"Oi, danna, un! Hop on!" Deidara shouted, lowering the bird. The bird was about to fly away until it was forced to the ground by a punch. Sasori and Deidara jumped away with Sakura in Sasori's arms. "You'd have to defeat us before you can go back then." Naruto said, glaring at the trio.
