Undeserving - Naruto AU

- Shippuden but Sakura-centered

"Sakura didn't deserve to be on Team 7" "Sakura didn't deserve Sasuke" "Sakura didn't deserve to train under Tsunade"
Well, what Sakura definitely deserves is more focus and development.
Of course, I could never do near as well as Kishimoto Sensei, but we can all admit that Sakura wasn't his greatest writing moment.
I'm basically rewriting extracts of Shippuden where Sakura could have made different choices, or where it would have been interesting to see into her thoughts. There's also some insight into my take on the Pre-Shippuden time skip, as well as random extracts of other characters that I felt like writing.
I'm not a big Sakura fan but I think she could be a great character. Lots of Konoha 12 cuteness and headcanons included.
Ik I'm probably the only one who's still not over Naruto but whatever.
If ur actually reading this, it's still in progress, bear with me. A chapter a day keeps bedtime away :).
I write at night so excuse me for waffling nonsense, and for how this gets increasingly worse in quality by chapter.
Ships included: canon ones, plus NejiTen and LeeSaku
Cover art by me. I do not own the other fanart, and the characters all belong to Masashi Kishimoto.
