Chapter Four
It was another clear sunny day in the village of Konoha. Sakura was at home packing her bags for her next mission. This mission would be important, more than any others she had been on.
For the past few days, Naruto and her had been getting to know their new team mates. Yamato was a very spoken guy, but knew when to keep his distance. He seemed like a very good team leader, he had been preparing the three for anything that could happen.
Sai was different. Naruto didn't seem to get along with him very well. Even Sakura, who thrives to get to know new people. With Sai, they will just have to give that time. His first impression was neither his best, he had put down Naruto. Though when he decided to bring Sasuke into the mix, Sakura couldn't hold back the anger. She had punched him right dead in the face. No hesitation. Things had gotten quiet for awhile, but with the team building, as Yamato would call it, the silence slowly difted away. As she finished packing the necessaties, Sakura grabbed her small beige backpack, and made her way into the kitchen where her mother stood making a lunch set.
"Do you have everything packed, Sakura?" Mebuki asked her daughter.
"Yeah, I just need that lunch box you have there. Then I'll be ready." Sakura leaned against the white fridge, with the pack slung to her side.
"I put some dry food in there, in case you want a snack." Mebuki said. Just then her father walked into the room, looking like he had just woken up.
"Morning dad."
"Good morning Sakura." Kizashi said to his little girl, as he sat down in his normal spot at the table.
"Honey, will you be running to the store today?" Mebuki asked her husband, as she made finishing touches to the lunch set.
"Nah, I'm taking a break today. How about we just lounge around today, huh Mebuki?" Sakura saw that this conversation did not need her, so she moved to her mothers side for her lunch.
"Kizashi, I have things to do. Maybe you should run errands with me huh?" As they both chatted, Sakura silently took the bag her food was in, and began to sneak away.
"Hey, Sakura. Leaving without a goodbye?" Mebuki called out to the pinkette. Sakura quickly turned around, surprised she had noticed.
"Sorry. I'll be going now." She bowed her head, then turned back around.
"Be safe Sakura!" Mebuki shouted.
"Come back soon!" Kizashi joined in. Both of her parents knew of the importance of the mission she was headed on. They both knew there was a possibility she would come back changed. Both had hoped they could hold onto the Sakura they always knew, for just a little longer.

Naruto, Sai, and Yamato waited by the main village gate for Sakura. Their plan was to go over their mission, then go at top speed to get it done.
"Sakura! You're actually the last one here!" Naruto yelled, waving his arm above his head. Sai looked at her with his always empty look, Yamato his expressionless face.
"Now that everyone is here, let's get going." Yamato said, as all three began to leave the village, and walked into the wilderness behind the walls of their home. "While we walk, let's have a short mission review. We are going where?" Yamato asked, as he trailed behind the three teens.
"Tenchi bridge." Sai replied.
"And why?"
"To meet a spy, and find that Orochimaru bastard!" Naruto said.
