Everyone sat in a table having lunch. Everything seemed awkward. Team seven had a guilty face, and Tazuna family had a uncomfortable face. Sakura eyes were red with tear stains though she had a force smile in her smile. It made the atmosphere heavily.

" Um I really want to thank you for protecting my father. I really appreciate it." Tsunami said. Sakura looked at her. She forced her smile wider.

"Yes indeed. All we had to do was kill. At least I had to do it." Sakura said.

"Sakura!!" Kakashi shouted.

"I'm going outside." Sakura said happily.

"I'm really sorry." Tazuna said." Maybe if I had told the hokage the truth, she may have never cross paths with her family."

"No its alright Tazuna. This may be hard on her but I'm sure with time she'll be fine." Kakashi said." After all this is a experience ninjas go through.

Naruto wanting to forget the conversion asked.

"Um why is this picture ripped?"

Inari walked away.

--------

Sakura had decided to take her sketch book and pencil to sketch and draw a few things.

This was the first time she lost something. Sure the hokage betrayed her but.......Haku and Zabuza had been her first contact to love. But she lost them unlike the hokage who was sadly still standing. She wanted him dead. She was mad that Zabuza and Haku had tried to kill her. But she didn't try to listen to them. It hurt her. Maybe if she tried to listen, maybe she wouldn't have kill them. If she had listen to Haku. Her love. But she killed them. Both.

Sakura opened her sketch book and started to draw. Her drawings weren't the best but she liked them. All she could draw were stick figures but they meant so much more to her. She carefully drew Zabuza and Haku dead with herself standing in the middle with a large smile with sharp teeth and tears in her eyes. She then dated the picture and closed it.

Sakura stared at the ocean. Then she felt someone next to her.

It was Inari.

"I-i'm sorry." Inari said.

"What are you sorry for little one?" Sakura asked.

"I'm sorry grandpa made you kill your friends." Inari said.

........

"Its alright......ninjas are suppose to kill dear ones all the time.....one this time......I actually killed the only ones." Sakura said.

Inari looked at her surprised. Ninjas did this all the time? The only ones?

"You know, you kinda remind me of a boy named konohamaru." Sakura said.

"Konohamaru?" Inari asked.

"I was adopted by the hokage, and he is his grandson. I consider him a little brother." Sakura said.

"Is-is he nice to you?" Inari asked.

"Actually he is, unlike the hokage he tries to be nice to me. I too am nice to him, though he always tries to make me train him." Sakura said.

"W-why are you nice to him? Your team said-......never mind." Inari said.

"I know, I usually am cold to people, but when I look him I want him to grow up knowing that I cared about him. After all that's what big sisters do right?" Sakura said and smiled at the last part.

"I don't want to be mean but why are you being nice to me?" Inari asked.

"You ask a lot of questions." Sakura said as she ruffled his hair." Well, I want people to know that I'm not cold. A lot of people called me monster some still do though they only do it because I was adopted by the all power hokage. Some kids like you and konohamaru don't think like that and I want them to know I will do anything to protect them. You know, maybe if they know I care about them they'll do the same. The truth is that not many people give me a chance to meet the real me. All I want is to help people. So they know they can always come to me for help. But the people who don't give me a chance, it'll be easier to kill them all." Sakura smiled at the last part.

Inari was shocked.

"Inari people have dreams. I do too have a dream. My dream is too find my parents. The hokage said they were dead or missing. So I'll find them, but if they're dead............I'll kill the people that treated me wrong. I'll kill my entire village. I'll show them my rage. And I have a lot Inari. A lot." Sakura said her eyes turning red for a instance.

"S-sakura-san?" Inari said.

"Yes?" Sakura said.

"Can you be my big sister too? I want to make you happy because you deserve it." Inari said.

.........

"Thank you Inari, I promise to be a good big sister." Sakura said as she hugged Inari with a small smile.

Not knowing this, team seven and Inari's family watched them from a far.

Tsunami smiled.

"That's my boy." Tsunami smiled proudly.

------------

Team seven had gather in the woods.

"Okay team, I think its perfect time to train a bit now." Kakashi announced." Well learn to climb trees."

"Seriously kakashi-sensei!!" Naruto shouted. Sasuke nodded unimpressed. Sakura looked at them.

"Climb......now." sakura demanded." On your feet.....no hands."

"What!? How!?" Naruto asked.

After kakashi explained and demonstrated they got to work.

"Sakura why don't you go with Tazuna to shop in the town." Kakashi said nicely.

"Of course." Sakura said and left.

---------

Tazuna and sakura where walking towards the store in silence.

"I-i'm sorry sakura-sama." Tazuna said.

"I-i I don't know what to say." Sakura said sadly." Honestly Tazuna I'm mad no furious at you, I would kill you and because a rouge ninja, but Inari needs his whole family, and im not planning to make him sad."

"That very nice of you sakura-sama." Tazuna said a bit scared.

"It hurts that I had to kill my first true love, it does and I'll never forget the pain. It also hurts that I had to lie to Inari about it but it'll make him less guilty." Sakura said.

"I understand." Tazuna said.

They entered the store. It had a few vegetables and fruits.

"I see Gato has made everything worse." Sakura said.

"Yeah." Tazuna said as he walk to gather a few vegetables.

Suddenly sakura feel someone touch her. She grabbed his hand and broke it. The man screamed in pain. Sakura then knocked him out and threw him out the store. People stared in amazement.

After a while they returned home.

"Sakura-nee! Can we go out and play!?" Inari said happily. Sakura smiled.

"Yes, we can." Sakura said." Please excuse us."

They went out side and sakura gave Inari a piggyback ride. Sakura ran fast jumping from the rooftops. Inari laughed. Sakura laughed quietly.

"Faster sakura-nee!" Inari shouted. Sakura ran faster.

"Yaaaayy!" Inari shouted happily.

When they returned home sakura put Inari in the ground. Inari smiled but then frowned. Sakura panicked.

" Are you okay Inari, did I do something wrong? Did I run to fast?" Sakura asked in panic.

" No sakura-nee, its just that......after you finish your mission you'll forget about me and you'll never come back." Inari said with tears in his eyes. Sakura smile and ruffled his already ruffled hair.

"I'll never forget you Inari, after all I'm your big sister, and what kind of sister would I be If i forgot my little brother." Sakura said with a closed eye smile. Inari wiped his tears away and smiled back.

"Let's go inside." Sakura said. They went in.

---------

In the morning team seven got ready.

"Okay naruto will stay here and protect Tazuna's family alright. We will go with Tazuna to the bridge. It's most likely that they send someone to kill tsunami and Inari." Kakashi said. Sakura and sasuke nodded.

Sakura walked to Inari and pat his head.

"Don't worry if that dumbass let's something happen to you. I'll sent him to hot flames of hell." Sakura said the last part with a evil smile. Inari hugged sakura. Sakura flinched.

"Be careful sakura-nee." Inari said worried.

"Of course little one." Sakura said with a closed eye smile. Sakura walked to tsunami. She flinched.

"Take care." Sakura said coldly.

"Y-y-yes s-sak-sakura-sama." Tsunami said afraid.

-----------

They waited in the bridge. Then they heard men.

Gato.

"Okay team take down as many as possible th-" kakashi was cut.

"No, well do nothing." Sakura said coldly.

"No sakura we ha-." He was cut again.

"Knowing naruto he'll do something better than this." Sakura said.

"The dobe won't to anything. Its better if we do kakashi's plan." Sasuke said coldly. Sakura looked at him.

"You can stain your hands if you wish. I'll wait for naruto." Sakura said bored.

Gato men now standed in front of them.

"Well what do we have here! Its the brats that kill Zabuza and this worthless stool!" Gato said. Sakura growled.

"Men take their pathetic lives." Gato said. Kakashi and sasuke got ready.

"Now Gato why would you call our lives pathetic when you're the pathetic one. Hiding behind your men. Are you really that of a coward. I thought so." Sakura said annoyed. Gato growled.

"Coward!! You're the cowards!!" Gato shouted.

"Sakura what are you doing!" Sasuke said mad.

"Buying time." Sakura said.'' Then Gato if you're not a coward prove it."

"I don't have to prove anything to you bitch!!" Gato screamed." Men destro-!!"

"Don't you dare hurt my nee-chan!!"

They all turned around. It was Inari and all the village people.

"Now leave our village or will kill you!!" Inari shouted.

"That's right! Come on land of the waves!" Naruto shouted. The village cheered.

Gato's men flinched. Sakura quickly ran to Gato and stabbed him. All the men ran away.

Team seven ran up to naruto and sakura.

"Dobe." Sasuke smiled.

"Good job naruto." Kakashi said. Sakura walked up to Inari.

"Good job Inari, you're a hero." Sakura smiled. Inari smiled proudly.

" From now on the bridges name will be "the naruto bridge." Tazuna announced. Everyone cheered.

"Sakura-nee why aren't they cheering for you? You also saved us." Inari asked.

"Well naruto has also gone through bad things. I want him to have respect. Not to mention he gave your village hope again." Sakura said. Inari nodded.

"Sakura-nee will you come visit?" Inari asked.

"Of course I will." Sakura said.

------

Team seven waved goodbye to the people.

"Good job team." Kakashi said. They nodded.

"I'm one step closer to becoming hokage!" Naruto cheered.

"Of course you are." Kakashi said.

"Yeah right dobe." Sasuke said.

"What did you call me teme!!" Naruto shouted.

"Dope."

"Teme!"

"Dobe."

"Teme!"
