Hey guys! This is a part of chapter one in 'A Twisted Cherry Blossom'. I am half way through chapter 3 just another 1500 - 2000 words to right left. Have fun!

Sakura's POV
I screamed came out of my mouth as I shot up. I breathed in and out heavily as I wiped the sweat around my forehead. "Sakura!" A voice called and bursted into my room. Shikamaru. "What's wrong?! Why did you scream?.......

-Shika

Ok guys, I'm going to cut out a lot of fighting scenes since it would take way to long to write and think about, because I usually research all the information I need. I might have three devices, but it's really annoying and my eyes starts to hurt. So please, I'm sorry but I will put in the fighting scenes that actually have something to do with the story. If you k ow what I mean.

Normal POV
"Welcome to the third and last chunin exams!" Hayate called out.

Many citizens were at the stadium, where the exams where going to happen. Ninjas cheered and girls squealed. "The matches will be settle with the hokage himself, he will pick out the matches randomly." Everyone nodded and waited while chatting.

-/ Three days after the exam \-

"What?" I asked Naruto and Sasuke. We were training with each other while waiting for Kakashi-sensei. They shook their heads and continued to spar and argue. I saw sitting down concentrating on my chakra flow to my reserved area, still refilling on the 100 Sealing Mark.

"Aren't you going to train Sakura?" I turned to find Kakashi-sensei. Then, I stopped concentrating and panted. "No sensei. I'm trying to refill my chakra reserve." I lips went into a straight line. "Oh, sorry. Continue, don't mind me." He smiled by the eyes.

I rolled my eyes and teleported to a near by branch, sitting down. I close my eyes again and started concentrating on the my chakra flow. I could see it, the chakra flowing into the reserve.

'Outer!'
'Inner? I haven't heard from you for a while.'
'Yeah, yeah. Anyways, I found something. Can you see your chakra flow?'
'Yeah.'
'Concentrate harder. You'll be able to see another chakra. Point that is blocked.'
'Ok...'

Confused, I did what she said and saw a another big pool of white liquid. White chakra. The it looked almost full. Then, fooling the line of where it was suppose to connect to, I realised there was two of them, one that led to the reserved and one that led to my normal chakra storage. Both blocked off by what seemed like a seal.

'That seal was placed on by mama and papa.'
'Mama and papa? When I was like....a akachan?'
'Yes, I don't remember why but I know.'
'How do I unseal it?'
'I think we need to ask the hokage.'

Standing up, I teleported to the hokage's office door. Knocking on it, I waited for a reply. "Come in." Walking in, I bowed. "Sakura-san? What's wrong?" He asked me. "I need your help to lift a seal." I told him. His eyes widened. "A seal?" He asked. I nodded.

Explaining to him, I watched his expression change from question to slightly shock then to thinking. "Hmm... Ok I think I know how to lift this seal. Come, Sakura-san. I will need Kushina's help." I nodded and followed. We arrived at his house and entered. "Kushina?" He called. Footsteps were heard and a woman with fiery red hair and a smile plastered on her face appeared and hugged the fourth.

"Minato! What's wrong did something happen?" She asked until her eyes hit me. "Aww! Aren't you cute!" She squealed and crushed me into a hug. "C-Can't b-breath..." I choked. She giggled and dropped me. "Sorry. I'm Namikaze Kushina. What's your name?" She asked. "I'm Haruno Sakura. Nice to meet you." I extended my hand to her. Her eyes widened and she crushed me into another hug.

'What with her hugs? I think I might become a bag full of broken bone.'

Inner chuckled.

"What are you guys here for? Come in." She welcomed. We walked in while the fourth explained to her what was going on. "Ok, Sakura-chan, lie on the couch and we will start the jutsu to lift your seal." Kushina smiled. I nodded and closed my eyes when I lied down.

I could hear shuffling until I felt the wrath of Kushina's hand on my chest and stomach. Then, I felt something big push into the two spots, making me jolt suddenly. "It's alright Sakura...just a little more." She said something heavy on my body lifted up. It felt so nice and my enter body relaxed. I could my reserved chakra filling up even quicker while I felt another normal chakra container for my daily use fill.

My body surged with the chakra, it didn't over flow thanks to the running Lee and Guy-sensei showed me that helped expand my chakra storage greatly. "It's done Sakura-chan." Kunshina said and I opened my eyes and sat up. "How do you feel?" The fourth asked me.

"Full." I replied. Kushina chuckled while her husband didn't understand. "She meant she feels full of chakra. I can sense it. So you'd better conceal it Sakura, or people will go after it like they did to me." I nodded and followed her instructions. "There we go. Have a nice day, Sakura-chan." She smiled and hugged me one last time before I bowed to them and disappeared.

"Woah, Sakura-chan, where have you've been?" Naruto asked.
"I went to your dad for help to lift a seal." I said honestly.
"Oh, old man?" I nodded.
"And your mum."
"Kaasan too? Wow, must of been a hard seal then." Naruto said.

I nodded and sat down. "I can spar now if you want." They smiled while Sasuke kept a straight face. "Well, since you three are here. Why don't we ask for a mission?" We all looked towards Kakashi-sensei. "A mission? Why not. We need one as chunins." Naruto pointed out. We all nodded and teleported to the hokage's office.

"Wait. I'm not sure if the your dad is back yet." I told Naruto. He nodded and knocked on the door.
"Come in." Walking in, we found the hokage and Kushina doing paperwork together.
"Yes?" The fourth asked.
"We are here for a mission, lord fourth." Sensei told him. Kushina and the hokage exchanged looks and nodded.
"Well, we have a mission for you guys that can in before the chunin exams, but a lot of the genins were busy." Kushina sighed.

"But now that we have a free chunin team, I guess we can start. You'll need to escort a man back to the village of waves. His name is Tazuna." The hokage said. Then there was a knock on the door and an anbu came in with a familiar looking old man. "Hokage-sama. I've brought Tazuna-san." The hokage nodded and the old man stepped into the room.

"You're gonna leave a couple of new chunins to escort me?" He scoffed.
"What's his problem?" Naruto mumbled.
"Yes, Tazuna-san. They might be handier than they seem." The hokage chuckled.
"You guys leave in twenty minutes." The hokage said.

Naruto was the first to disappear in a flash of yellow. Sasuke followed in black flames and I bowed before a swirl of cherry blossoms wrapped around me and I teleported to my room. Taking out a scroll, I sealed clothes, weapons, medical things, blankets, food, canteens and extra shoes.

"Tazuna..." I whispered under my breath, it was so familiar. Suddenly, white blurred my eyes and swayed a bit. A vision of two masked people appeared into it. Fog was everywhere and there looked as if there was a fight. Glass mirrors? Blood. Naruto. Nine tail fox. Sasuke. Tazuna.

Stumbling backwards, I fell into warm arms. Looking up, I saw Itachi looking at me worried.

"Sakura? What's wrong?" He asked and picked me up.
"Ugh. A vision. Don't worry, you can put me down now." I smiled and kissed his cheek.
Placing me down, he kissed my neck and mumbled a little. "I love you."
"I love you too. I need to go for a mission now, Itachi." I told him and smiled.
"How long will you be going for?"
"Well, we are going to the village hidden in the Waves." I told him.
Chuckling he kissed my forehead. "Go on now my blossom. I'll be waiting." I nodded.
Kissing his cheeks, I teleported in my cherry blossom petals.

"Your early, Sakura." I turned around to face Sasuke and nodded. Then, a flash appeared and Naruto groaned rubbing his head. "What happened to you, dobe?" Sasuke asked him. "Kaasan got mad at me and whacked me across the head with a pan, teme." I swear dropped. I wonder what he did...?

Sensing sensei's chakra, I turned around to find sensei an Tazuna appear in a swirl of leaves. "Ready guys?" We nodded.

Normal POV
As the five of them bordered the boat, Sakura sensed something familiar and wrong. Kakashi was delusional and trying to make small conversation with Tazuna. Sasuke narrowed his eyes as the boat entered a foggy area. Naruto, who was lying down trying to sleep, eyes shot opened and slowly got up.

The three of the exchanged glances and nodded. Naruto created three clones that stood around the boat on the water. "Naruto? What's wrong?" Kakashi asked. "I think I might need to punch you sensei." Sakura mumbled, crunching her fist. Kakashi apparently knew what was going on, he was testing his students.

Smirking under his mask, he knew something thing was off and was proud of his students for realising so quick. The water rippled under Naruto clones and Sakura yelled. "Get down!" Sasuke pulled Tazuna down onto the boat floor as kunias shot out of the water and a shadow passed over their heads.

"Zabuza." Sakura unconsciously said as white stars filled vision. Kakashi's eyes widened and watched Sakura, shocked. Then, swaying around, Sakura's eyes rolled back and she fainted. Naruto caught her and exchange glances with each other before nodding.

As they left the boat and made their way into the forest path, Naruto carried Sakura in a bridal style. She mumbled here and there. Samurai, who was unconscious, was remembering something that locked off. It was all too blurring and hard. She start sweating and cried out a couple of time, which shocked the group. Tazuna was confused and didnt know what was happening. Her mermories jogged back snd fourth, slowly piecing together the lost mermories that slowly became even clearer in her mind.

Zabuza's fight. Haku's death. Everything that happened in the span of her exprience here at the village hidden in the wave appesred in her mind. Her eyes shot opened and gasped. The group stopped walking and Naruto placed Sakura down.

"I remember......" She whispered. "I need to cool down..." She told them, they nodded and kept on walking till they passed a lake. "Cool down here Sakura. We'll be behind the tree if you need us." Kakashi told her. She nodded and went to a near by tall bush to strip out of her clothes. In her undergarments, she stepped into the water.

The water was cold and refreshing for her, dipping her head down into the water, she stayed under for a few seconds before standing up and throwing her head backwards. Sighing, she stepped out behind a bush and summoned a towel.drying herself off, she sensed something near by. A very faint chakra signature.

Quickly changing her undergarments into bandages around her growing breast and slipped on her panties and short, she sensed the chakra signature coming closer and cursed.

Sakura's POV
"Come out! I know your there, Zabuza! You suck at hiding your chakra." I yelled out as I finished sealing my things into the scroll. I didn't have enough time to get my shirt out of the scroll so, I jumped out half naked on on my upper body.

A kunai shot out, my reflexes took the best of me and I caught it by the handle. Swinging it around I glared at the direction of the chakra signature.

"Sakura-chan? What's wrong-wah!" Naruto caught the kunia that was aimed at his face.
"Nani kore?" He asked looking around to see who threw it.
"Wah! Sakura-chan! Why it is top half, half naked?!" Naruto blushed.
Sasuke came out and blushed, followed by Kakashi and Tazuna.
"Baka! There is a swordsman here!" I yelled.

Throwing the kunai in the chakra signature direction, a man jumped out and landed on the water. His face masked with bandages and a sword on his back. "Zabuza. On of the seven Swordsmans' of the Mist." I said and crossed my arms. His eyes widened.

"You have a smart brat on your team....Kakashi of the Sharingan." I chuckled at his complement. I knew what was going to happen...but after this, my memory is still blurry. Shaking my head a bit, I summoned my katana as Sasuke and Naruto stepped forwards, inline with me.

Turning to Naruto, Sasuke and I nodded and we walked behind us, placing a hand on our back, he placed the teleportation seal on us. "Ready?" He asked. Zabuza chuckled.

"Go ahead brats. Let me see how pathetic you brats are." He laughed.

Naruto was the first to make a move, throwing big kunias...did the hokage give him that? Throwing the big kunias with a paper seal around the handle. Zabuza caught it, making the three of us smirk. Naruto disappeared and Sasuke followed. They appeared behind Zabuza and shocked him. "Fire style, Fire ball jutsu!" Zabuza barely blocked that. "Rasangan!" Naruto yelled. I recognised that jutsu. I read about it in the fourth hokage's record.

Zabuza flew into the fireball that was about to go out and screamed. Hearing a slash of water, the two appeared beside me with Naruto swinging his kunia.

Suddenly, shards of ice flew towards us in a huge amount. Haku. "Cherry Blossom style! Petal Barrier!" I lifted my katana and pink petals appeared out of thin air, and formed together quickly, shattering the ice needles that flew towards us. "Earth Style! Earth control!" I called out. Lifting up my hand the earth moved and lifted the three of us off the ground and above the lake.

No one was there anymore.

Sighing, I push my hand down and the earth went back into the ground and settled down. Walking behind the bushed, I took out my school and summoned my shirt. Slipping it on, I rolled my scroll up and came out of the bushes.

"Let's go." Sasuke said and we nodded. Sensei and Tazuna followed and walked ahead of us, leading the way.

Heading towards a house near the bay, Tazuna let us in and we were greeted by a little boy and a woman. Inari and Tsunami. "Welcome, please come in." She greeted. Entering into the living room, we sat down in silence. "My names Tsunami, and this is my son, Inari." She greeted and bowed.

"Thank you for inviting us in. May I ask....what's going on around here?" Sensei asked.
"Well...." She looked towards Tazuna.
"I am in charge of the unfinished bridge you saw before...Gato, a shipping magnate and founder of Gatō Company. He also was secretly a drug dealer as well as the owner of a smuggling business and attempted to take control of the Land of Waves. He is the one who executed my son." Tazuna frown.

Looking outside, the fog cleared and it was about midday.

"How long has this been going for?" Sensei asked.
"Ever since the bridge started. He wants to stop it." Tazuna sighed.

As they were engrossed with their conversation, I tapped Naruto on the shoulder, gaining both his and Sasuke's attention. "We are going to check out something for a bit sensei." I told Kakashi-sensei. He nodded and we walked outside.

"Naruto." I told him, he nodded understanding and placed a teleportation seal on the floor and wall of the house. "Let's go." I said and teleporting into the forest I remember training in. Arrive there, the cherry blossoms that surrounded me touched the ground and disappeared into glitter.

The boys followed after, Sasuke in flames and Naruto in a flash of yellow. "What are we doing here?" Emo asked. Rolling my eyes, I threw a kunai at them each, catching it, they looked at me questionably. "We are going to learn how to climb a tree. Hopefully this will ring a bell since you two can already do many jutsus...." I told them.

"I've already learnt how to climb a tree ages ago!" I smacked him across the head.
"No you baka. You are going to climb without hands." I face palmed.
He looked at me confused.
"Hn, dobe, she mean infusing chakra into your feet and walk up the tree." Sasuke explained.
"At least someone catches on fast." I groaned.
"Ooh!............wait... How do we do that?" I punched Naruto on the head.
"You baka! I'm going to explain." I yelled.
"Ooh! Ok. What are you waiting for?" My eye brow twitched.
"Are you asking for another punch?" I asked him.
"N-No! I'm fine thank you." He stuttered and sweat dropped.

-/ After a very long explanation \-

"Do you get it now?" I asked him.
"Umm...." Naruto replied at Sasuke groaned.
"Yes?" I am going to head butt him, I swear...

"Well, this is how it looks like." I said, walking over to a tree, I infused chakra into my foot and walked up while taking a kunai out of my pouch, as I reached the top, I scratched the tree and plunged the kunai in. "You need perfect chakra control to perfect this." I told them. "If not..." I jumped down.

"If you have too less." I showed them and ran up the tree with little uneven chakra into my foot and fell. I flipped backwards and landed on my feet. "That will happen....of you have too much..." I ran up again and the tree crushed under my feet, I jumped down. "That will happen. Got it?" I asked them.

They nodded. "This is will help a lot with your chakra control in jutsus and make it a lot easier and faster to learn your jutsu." They nodded and started.
