Part2 , Part 3

“Where do you think you're going?!”

Sakura's voice snapped, glaring at another of what she called "difficult patients." The man didn't seem fazed by the medic-nin's irritation, instead, he was finishing putting on his second sandal. He had been here far too long for his taste. Four days, sure, but it was already four days too long.

“Home.”

She clenched her jaw. Hell no! He'd just had surgery a few days ago, there's no way he's leaving now.

“No.”

“What do you mean 'no'?”

“You can't leave, Itachi. I didn't give you permission to do so. You're coming out of a pretty heavy operation. You need to rest.”

Itachi narrowed his eyes, a wave of displeasure washing over him.

“I'm fine. And I have some business that can't wait.”

“If you mean missions, I've cancelled them.”

“You what?”

If he was displeased at first, now he was downright annoyed. He didn't understand the point of occupying a bed he no longer needed. He was feeling better, so as far as he's concerned, he could leave.

“You heard me.” She crossed her arms over her chest. “Don't give me that look.”

Itachi closed his eyes, pinched the bridge of his nose and took a deep breath.

“Sakura, you had no right to do that. It's not your decision to make. I appreciate your concern, but it is not necessary. It's up to me to say whether or not I can handle a mission.”

“Like hell I can't! I'm the one who had to fix the damage done to your body, so I assure you that I'm in a very good position to make that kind of decision. Besides, Shishou agrees with me.”

“You have already discussed this with Hokage-sama?”

She shrugged as Itachi took a step forward, heading for the door. Too bad for him, Sakura blocked his way.

“What do you think you're doing!?”

“I'll go talk to the Hokage. Now step aside.”

“She won't agree with you on this, Itachi. She trusts my judgment and if I tell her you need to be taken off the mission roster, you will be.”

“What right do you have—”

She cut him off ;

“In my capacity as a doctor. I outrank you in the chain of command when we are within these walls. Deal with it.”

Sakura probably had a secret death wish, how else could she explain addressing one of the most feared ninjas in the village like that? Fuck, feared even in several nations! But she couldn't let him leave the hospital. He had almost not made it. Of course, she had managed to save him, but, the amount of poison found in his chakra system was nothing to sneeze at. She could see that he was irritated. She knew him well by now and normally she wouldn't have been so insolent with him, but, as she had said, she was the boss in this hospital. En plus, his father would be sure to ostracize her if anything happened to his precious and talented older son.

“This is ridiculous.”

Stubborn as he is, Itachi wasn't going to let it happen. That's why he was determined to go and discuss it with the Hokage. He respected orders, Itachi submitted to Tsunade Senju's authority because it was his duty as a Loyal Shinobi of Konoha, but that wasn't going to stop him from using his persuasive skills on the woman. He had done it before, and he's still alive to talk about it, isn't he? He had dodged the cup of Sake she had once thrown at him, he could very well do the same with her stapler. His decision made, Itachi headed for the door once again.

“Ita—”

“For God's sake, stop it! You are really annoying me.”

The words had come out of his mouth without him realizing it. He was exasperated and the days spent in that hospital bed plus the rest were getting on his nerves.

Sakura gasped, forgetting even what she was going to say, caught off guard by his outburst. A long silence ensued.

Those words again...

Always these words.

It stung.

It hurt. A lot.

She felt the familiar sting of tears at the corners of her eyes. An ironic smile tugged at her lips. Apparently, it ran in the family. She remembered all those times when she was younger, Sasuke had said those same words to her. It had always hurt her a little, but this was worse. Because Itachi was not unaware of how Sakura had been treated by his little brother. He even intervened once. Of course, as Sasuke had grown up, he had eventually apologized, in his own weird way, sure, but he had apologized. She had forgiven him. Because that's what she does : She forgives. She had her heart on her sleeve.

It doesn't mean that she forgets, but she cares about Sasuke and that time was already long gone. She knew why Sasuke had been so hard on her, he had explained the reasons, the pressure he felt to live up to his father's expectations, the pressure he put on himself to be as good as his brother. He had simply vented his frustration where he could. It wasn't fair, but she was the one who took the brunt of it. And she understood, really. But Itachi, what was his excuse? She’d talked to him about it. They had talked about it in private. She had told him about that part of her life, as silly as it might seem to others to feel hurt by mere words, but he had understood. He had even apologized for his brother's attitude and assured her that she was far from annoying or weak.

She thought he, more than anyone else, understood the weight of those particular words. Apparently, they were just empty words. She should have known better. Never trust what a man says when he's lost in pleasure and between your legs. Serves her right.

Foolish little girl.

The silence stretched, but Sakura refused to show even a hint of weakness. She would not cry. She took a breath and grabbed the clipboard on the small table and scribbled down some instructions and a prescription and then signed the discharge form, which stated that he was being discharged against medical advice. She then handed him the paper with a blank look.

“As you wish then, Uchiha-san.”

Itachi's eyes widened slightly, surprised to hear his last name, by the change in her demeanor. And he knew. He just knew. He had fucked up.

"Sakur-" he tried to reach out to her, but she shied away, cutting him off with that cold, professional tone. So impersonal compared to earlier.

“Please, leave. I still have patients to attend to. I wish you a speedy recovery.”

He sighed. He knew better than to insist. This was not the right time. He took his discharge and walked to the door. He paused, his hand on the doorknob.

“I'll see you later.” He said softly and it almost sounded like a question.

The only thing Itachi could see was her back. There was no indication that she had heard him, and if she had, she didn't acknowledge him.

When the door finally shut and she no longer felt the ANBU captain's chakra nearby, she let a choked sob echo through the empty room.

Maybe it was true what they say: words hurt more than blows. And the Uchihas really knew how to hurt her.

I have amazing ideas for Sakura-centric fanfics, but not only do I not have the energy or patience to write them; I haven’t really been in the Naruto fandom for years now. Sigh.

Sakura’s past is just as dark as the rest of Team 7’s. They just don’t know it yet.

Chapter Four

Truth and Confrontation

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

“Okay,” Kakashi said as the door to the office he had commandeered clicked closed. “Tell me what happened. Sasuke first.”

Sasuke’s eyes were stormy as he recounted what had happened only an hour before. “We were getting breakfast and then that man came up and...he was touching Sakura! He grabbed her arm and she just... let him !”

The girl in question looked like she wanted nothing more than to melt into the carpet.

“And what happened then?”

“I told him to stop. And when he didn’t, I shoved him away.”

“And broke his arm apparently,” Kakashi added wryly.

Sasuke just stared at him, silent and unrepentant.

Kakashi sighed and turned to the other boy in the room. “Alright, Naruto, anything to add?”

“He did something to her,” He spat, voice escalating until he was nearly shouting. “I know he did! I could see it! Sakura was afraid of him! And Sakura isn’t afraid of anyone!”

“Alright,” Kakashi said, voice deceptively light. “I believe you.”

Naruto and Sasuke glanced at each other, surprise evident in their faces.

“Wait...you do?” The blonde asked, confused.

“Yep,” Their sensei remarked cheerfully, before opening the door once more and gesturing towards the hallway. “Now wait outside. I need to speak to Sakura.”

Sasuke’s eyes flicked to his silent, terrified teammate and then back to Kakashi and narrowed suspiciously. “Why?”

“Because I said so,” Kakashi replied, still overly calm and cheery. “Now out.”

And though the boys looked ready to protest, they weren’t given much choice as their sensei all but shoved them out with a blithe ‘she’ll be fine’ and then locked the door for good measure. Not that a simple lock could actually keep them out, but it was the principle of the thing. He sat down in one of the empty chairs with a weary sound and scrubbed at his eye with his palm.

Sakura just stared at him as if he was going to bite her.

Kakashi sighed. “I realize this is the last thing you want to do, but you’re going to have to tell me what happened.”

Sakura blanched and then mumbled quickly, “Sasuke and Naruto already told you what happened-”

He gave her a look . “You and I both know that isn’t what I meant.”

If anything, Sakura looked even more uncomfortable than before.

Well , Kakashi thought, this is going well . He’d never felt more like a scumbag than in this moment. Years of torturing enemies for information and listening to the begging of assassination targets and he’d never once balked, but forcing a 12 year old girl to confess her abuse? He was more than ready to just let her sit in silence for the rest of the night. But at the same time though...

“I get it. Really, I do ,” Kakashi began tiredly. If anyone understood the desire to never, ever talk about their trauma, it was him. “But if you don’t tell me what happened I’m going to have to go out there and let that man go free. I can’t keep him here without a reason.”

“I…” Her voice trailed off, barely more than a whisper. He could see the gears turning in her head, weighing her choices, fear warring with shame.

“Give me a reason Sakura.” He looked her in the eye, trying to convey everything he would do for her if she just said the words he needed her to say. “And you’ll never have to see him again.”

“I…I can’t ,” She choked, swallowing a sob. “You’ll hate me.”

Kakashi suddenly had to force down the need to smash something. “ No ,” He replied coldly. “It’s not you I’ll hate.”

Sakura only looked more skittish, eyeing his clenched fists with disbelief, so he stood, stepping towards her to crouch in front of her instead. He didn’t touch her, but she leaned away anyway.

“You don’t have to tell me,” He tried again, an idea forming in his mind. “So what if you show me instead?”

“Show…?”

He tapped the hitai-ate slumped over his left eye and her own eyes widened in realization. She was silent for a terribly long time and he didn’t dare break it, watching the idea turn over in that deceptively quick mind of hers.

“Will it hurt?”

He fought the urge to laugh, tension leaching from his shoulders. Of all the things for her to ask…

“No,” Kakashi assured her gently as he pulled up his hitai-ate and Obito’s sharingan began to spin. “You won’t feel a thing.”

And then he saw the scene in her mind. The towering form of the man from before, whispering to her soothingly to stay quiet and that she was ‘such a good girl’. The large hands that wandered into places they shouldn’t. He could feel the embarrassment as her nightdress was lifted, the crushing press of a man far heavier than her bearing her down. But most of all he felt the shame . The fear . The utter confusion . The feeling that she must’ve done something to deserve this somehow...

The sharingan snapped shut and Kakashi pulled away, deathly silent.

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

The man (what had his name been? Kazuki?) almost didn’t notice Kakashi entering the office 15 minutes later. After he’d finished with Sakura he’d left her in the care of her teammates with instructions to take her elsewhere. Then he’d made two clones. One to inform Sakura’s parents of what was going on.

And the second to inform the hokage of what he was going to do.

Kazuki watched the jōnin curiously as the door snapped closed behind him. “So did you punish those boys yet?”

“No.”

He frowned, annoyed. He opened his mouth to say something but Kakashi cut him off as he sat across from him.

“Here’s what’s going to happen,” He began with false cheer. “I’m going to give you a choice Haruno-san.”

The man stared at him uncomprehendingly. “A choice…?”

“That’s right,” Kakashi continued. “You see I can’t just kill you outright. Too much paperwork.”

Kazuki paled, horror dawning across his face. “K-kill me?!” He sputtered. “What the hell are you talking about?!!”

“Oh well, you see there would just be so many questions and the hokage looks down on just killing people in the village without his say-so. You understand.”

The man gave him a look that said he very much did not understand. “But you can’t-”

“I don’t know if you noticed Haruno-san but this is a military dictatorship. I can do whatever the fuck I want.”

The sound that came out of Kazuki very much sounded like that of a man being hanged. Kakashi would know.

“You haven’t asked me why I want to kill you yet.” The jōnin prompted, clearly enjoying watching the man squirm. He stared at him expectantly until he realized that Kakashi expected him to say something.

“...Why do you want to kill me?” He sounded like it was just now dawning on him that this entire situation wasn’t just some bizarre fever dream.

“Well, it’s funny you ask that,” Kakashi said happily. “Because as it turns out, I just learned that you’ve hurt one of my students.” The atmosphere grew suddenly cold and claustrophobic and he continued, “And if there’s one thing I can’t abide, it’s when someone fucks with my students .”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about-”

“Don’t bother lying to me. I do it for a living.”

“Those boys attacked me! I didn’t do anything to them!”

Kakashi’s smile grew positively feral. “Who said I was talking about the boys?”

Kazuki grew even paler, but then suddenly became angry. Like a cornered animal that knew its options were few. “You have no proof!” He spat accusingly.

“Ah, well there’s where you’re wrong Haruno-san,” Kakashi said, lifting up his hitai-ate and snapping open his sharingan. “You see, I have all the proof I need.”

And then he caught the man in a genjutsu, forced him to see what he’d done to Sakura from her perspective. And when he was done Kazuki was silent and still and terrified and all he could do was whisper, like a lifeline, “You said you wouldn’t kill me...”

“I did,” Kakashi agreed. “And I said you have a choice.”

The man looked as if he were afraid to ask, but he did anyway. “What...what choice?”

“Which do you prefer? Your hands?...Or your balls?”

Fanfic recommendations where the Haruno are a shinobi clan 🌸

Hello everyone! I’d like to know if anyone knows of any Sakura Haruno-Centric/BAMF Sakura Haruno fanfiction where the story features the Haruno as a shinobi clan!

Some time ago, I read "The First Flower of Spring" by Evil Is A Relative Term (same author of "Kill Your Heroes"), and it was so amazing!!! I’m still heartbroken that she decided not to continue TFFOS 😭!

Anyway… I haven’t been able to find another interesting fanfiction with the Haruno as a shinobi clan, Sakura-Centric, and I’d love to know if any of you have any recommendations, please!

Thank you 🌸

[kunoichiiis]

i could stare at your back all day (blossoming alone over you ch.2 a sakuino fic)

It's all teeth and no finesse. Sakura tastes blood, tastes heaven. She deepens the kiss.

Hi! I just posted chapter two of 'blossoming alone over you'! It's short (as most of my chapters are) but it's about their second kiss and a bit of a timeskip from their first one!

I hope you guys enjoy it!
