Sakura Momochi Hatake || Naruto

Chapter 32

Two days after the incident,all of the shinobis stood in front of the Hokage's grave to pay our final respect. My legs are crushed, so I sat on Bull, a bull dog-nin. We stood in silence hearing cries and mourning of lost. I shed some tears and daddy pat my head. He grabbed my shoulders and I leaned on him to cry.

That damn Orochimaru will pay! I cursed.

"Hokage jii-sama.." I whispered. Daddy squeezed my shoulder as I choked in a sob.

After a few days, Naruto left with Jiraya to hunt for Tsunade. The future Hokage and also the person to heal me. I go everywhere with Bull as I'm in no condition to walk. Daddy persuades me to stay in the hospital, but I strongly refused. I need to breathe in the fresh air, not suffocate in the hospital. It's boring as hell in there.

I could feel that I'm being watched,but I see no one when I turned. After awhile, the feeling was gone. Heh.. I guess I'm just imagining things.

"Bull, lets go to the river." I said.

"Sure, pinkie." He replied.

"Don't call me pinkie!" I pouted.

"You used to be a pink fluff ball. Now look at you. You even gained weight!"

"What did you say?!" I flushed and punched his head.

"Ow!"

Kisame's POV

Itachi and I was caught by Kakashi when I watched Sakura. Boy, she is badly hurt. He led us to a river and two more Jounins appeared.

"Long time no see, Kakashi-san, Asuma-san, Kurenai-san." Itachi said.

"I-Itachi Uchiha??" Kurenai and Asuma said in unison.

"Well, I guess you don't know me. I'm Kisame Hoshigaki."

"What do you want?" Kakashi growled. I smirked.

"What do you think? This guy here misses his hometown and I miss my little squirt." I grinned ignoring Itachi's glare.

"We are taking you with us." Kurenai said.

"Don't kill Kakashi or Samehada will tear you to shreds!" I whispered to Itachi. Itachi just nodded.

Asuma charged at me with his daggers. Kakashi battled with Itachi. Kurenai came for me too. What a nuisance..

"A-A-Aniki?!?" A voice startled.

Sakura's POV

Bull stopped by the river. I enjoyed the cool breeze and the smell of water. The freshness. My body relaxed until I felt a wave of chakra nearby. As if someone was fighting.

"Bull, did you feel that?" I asked.

"Yeah. I can smell 5 persons. One of them is Kakashi. Two of them are familiar, but the other two are foreign." He answered.

"Let's go." I said.

"Are you sure? You are in no condition to fight!" He said.

"Don't worry about me! I'm worried about dad! He might get hurt." I felt the same presence from the village Hidden in the Mist..

"I can never win you in an argument.." He sighed and sprint towards the place.

When we reached, I saw a familiar blue man.

"A-A-Aniki?!?" I was startled. My eyes were as wide as saucers. Words were stuck in my throat. I was beyond shocked to see him again. Especially with another Akatsuki fighting with 3 Jounins.
