"Talking"

'Thinking'

'Inner Sakura'

Your smile sets my heart aflame.
Electrocute me with your eyes.
The very mention of your name,
My stomach fills with butterflies.
Your love is better than cocaine
I need you more than oxygen.
Oh God I've got it bad again,
An o-b-s-e-s-s-i-o-n.
-The Orion Experience

Ch.1 Her brand of sanity

He swore that this village had never changed.

Still the weak and naive land he had left all those years ago, now crumbling beneath his very feet.

The village hidden in the leaves was destroyed because of him, and the realization brought a smirk to his handsome features.

His long black hair laid jaggedly down his back and his famous red eyes pierced through the cracked window he gazed out from. His figure was muscled and slim and he was tall in height.

If anyone recognized him they would have thought he was previously dead, but no. He was fully alive and had been since he left this village. Only now he returned to take his rightful place as the ruler of the land and its people who lived in it.

Although there weren't as many people as when he first arrived, they were still under his control; for the most part.

A number of their shinobi were killed but a good amount of them were still alive, thanks to their Hokage.

She was a very smart woman to surrender in order to save her village, or what was left of it. By the time she decided there was no longer any hope, more than half the village was demolished.

He had been planning this attack for weeks and when the time came to put his plan into motion, he was more than ready.

Not only did he want to rein supreme over the village that denied him so many things many years ago, but something else had sparked his interest a while back.

More like someone.

The girl he remembered from his encounter with her a little over two years ago. How he wished he could have seen her again sooner, but with his plan, he knew he would reap certain benefits.

She would be one of them. If only he could tame the fiery temper she had.

He could still remember only two days ago when he and his forces showed up at Konoha's gate. The looks on the shinobi's faces; the look on her face.

It excited him to no end.

/Flash Back/

He knew Konoha wasn't ready for an attack like this, but he wasn't one to play fair.

Leading the entire Akatsuki and other groups of rouges, mercenaries, and shinobi that followed him, they appeared at the gate in record breaking time.

But of course there was still skillful ninja in the village so they didn't go undetected for to long before they reached the village radius.

There was a large group of ninja awaiting them at the gate when they arrived with their Hokage leading the pack.

He finished his last step to the front of his army and shot an aggressive smirk to the bunch, "Glad we were provided a welcoming committee."

"State your purpose here," the female Hokage demanded from her rigid position at the gates.

His smirked widened because he knew she couldn't recognize him, since he still wore his silly orange mask, although the childish persona had disappeared completely.

"Either surrender over the village or I'll be taking it by force," he told her in his deep voice, smirk still present.

"Why the hell would I just hand over my village to you?" the blonde answered angrily, "You have no purpose here so get your asses out. But if it's a war you want it's a war you'll get!"

He chuckled at her short temper and took another daring step forward, "Do you really think you'll win, dear Hokage?"

"Madara Uchiha," an angelic voice called firmly from the Hokage's left, making the addressed man direct his gaze at her.

He recognized the girl as his eyes settled on her form. He remembered fighting her once as Tobi. He remembered then, he had another reason to conquer the village.

She was the one he came for. And she looked even more heavenly than the last time he laid eyes on her.

Her milky skin was shown in the tight black shorts and a medical skirt she adorned on her lower half. She wore high black ninja boots with small heels, just like her Hokage. Her small waist and ample chest were covered in her usual red vest with her unheard of clan symbol on the back.

Fierce emerald eyes stared back at him, unafraid, and her bright pink locks had grown down to her collarbone. He did prefer it longer.

He cracked a small smirk at her intelligence. She really was as smart as she was rumored to be.

"Ah, Haruno Sakura," he addressed the girl in his deep alluring voice as he took another couple steps forward, "As smart as ever I see."

She narrowed her beautiful jade eyes when he spoke her name and took her own step forward, as if to challenge him, "Your identity became more obvious over time. Now, my Hokage asked you a question, Uchiha. What is your purpose here?"

Madara's smirk widened wildly at her attitude, "My my, the little kitten has claws."

Some of the army behind the eldest Uchiha let out short laughs until Sakura sent them a heated glare. That shut them up pretty quick.

She recognized the entire Akatsuki, who smirked at her when their eyes met. She just exhaled in disgust before turning her eyes back to the Uchiha.

"How did you figure out it was me, if I may ask?" he questioned, taking another daring step forward.

It was her turn to show a smirk of her own, "Wouldn't you like to know."

The eldest Uchiha let a deep chuckle resonate through his chest making the Sakura's smirk disappear.

"If you don't have any business here, then I suggest you leave," the pinkette spoke strictly looking directly into Madara's eyes, "Now."

In an instant Madara was standing in front of her with his hand tilting up her chin, "Oh but I do have a reason dear Sakura-hime."

He knew she was thought about sending a chakra filled punch his way but he felt her freeze at the nickname he'd given her, making amusement ripple through in his red eyes.

The shinobi around her switched into attack positions, ready to assist if needed to, while Sakura stayed rigidly still.

"And what is that Uchiha?" she hissed as she purposefully flared chakra into her earth shattering fists, as to give him warning.

Madara almost chuckled at her riled behavior but instead moved his mouth closer to her ear, "By the time this battle is over love, you'll know."

His hot breath tickled her ear sending delicious shivers down her spine, "And next time you see me Sakura-hime," he paused once more kissing her temple, "You'll be calling me Madara-sama."

She snapped and swung her fist towards the arrogant Uchiha's face but he jumped away just before she could feel the satisfying crunch of his shattering cheekbone.

Madara chuckled at her ferocity and was astounded at the power her fist left on the ground after she barely missed his face.

Sakura let out a frustrated huff as one of her fellow ninja came next to her and placed a calming hand on her shoulder.

Madara recognized the man as Hatake Kakashi, the pinkette's previous sensei. He wanted to rip the male's arm off for touching her but he knew there would be time for that later.

"If there are no more unneeded questions," Madara spoke with his sadistic smirk, "Then why don't we get this started."

He and his army charged at the small Konoha posy, and the fight for control was commenced.

/End Flash Back/

Although the Hokage surrendered for the safety of the village, Madara gave the villagers and shinobi the option to follow him, or be killed.

Most of the ninja, again, were sparred because they followed suit of their hokage. But there were of course a handful of defiant shinobi that demanded death; his little blossom being one of them.

The thought made him release a short laugh as he sat in his new chair in the Hokage tower.

His tower. His chair. His village. His cherry blossom.

The defiling group was currently awaiting his judgment in the holding cells in the lowest level of the tower.

He leaned back into the chair at looked out at the city in ruins and as if like clock work, one of his fellow Akatsuki appeared at the door.

"Madara-sama," Itachi's voice spoke from the doorway, "We need you down in the cells."

"Ah yes," he answered evenly, "That needs to be taken care of now."

Itachi followed Madara down to the cells were he noticed a slight arrogance added to his leader's demeanor.

The power was going to his head.

They entered through the large doors and saw rows of cells all containing different Konoha ninjas.

All of them had their chakra drain by Kisame, making him quite happy. Most of them just sat in the corner of their cells quietly, but some weren't as cooperative.

He heard familiar yelling from the blonde Kyuubi container as well as some insults as he walked by.

He stopped at the Kyuubi's cell door and smirked to the boy inside, "Ah Kyuubi, I figured you'd be in here."

"Believe it Uchiha-teme! I won't ever follow your orders!" he yelled at Madara with evident spite, "I'd rather die!"

Amusement passed through his sharingan eyes, "Then you've chose the right path."

The blonde's eyes switched from blue to red then back again.

Madara snorted, "You don't intimidate me boy. Soon you'll be dead and you'll have no more Kyuubi to worry about."

Naruto growled at the elder Uchiha as he began to walk past his cell.

He noticed Kisame and Deidara standing in front of a cell a few down from him.

Deidara noticed his approach and gave him a nod, "She put up quite the fight on the battlefield but we finally got her under control, yeah."

Kisame let out a short laugh, "Her chakra is drained but before that, the little kitten killed off Konan."

The Uchiha let a smirk play across his lips as he stopped in front of the kunoichi's, "A sacrifice we can afford."

The pinkette was placed in the back of the cell with both of her hands cuffed and chained above her head. Even with no chakra, her punches were still painful.

She sat with her knees spread and head looking at the ground. Her tousled pink locks formed a curtain around her face.

Cuts and bruises covered her milky skin while her attire showed slight rips and tears.

"Sakura, Sakura, Sakura," Madara tisked as he leaned against the cell bars, "Didn't I tell you I'd win this battle?"

He noticed her cringe when spoke her name causing him to smirk.

"And I haven't told you this yet, Uchiha, but you should really fuck off," she spoke calmly, smirking behind her hair.

She expected him to lash out at her but he did the exact opposite, he laughed.

"I admire your spirit even when you know I hold your very life in my hands," he told her darkly, hoping to knock some last minute sense into her.

She let out her own light laugh then looked up at him with a slight smile on her cracked lips, "I have nothing left. You've taken pretty much everything from me as it is. "

The three Akatsuki stayed silent and just stared at the kunoichi. They had broken her and yet, she still had some will hidden where they couldn't find it.

"Almost everything?" Madara asked with a brow raised.

What did he miss? What could he have missed? He took her village, her mentor, her freedom, her life! What was it?

The idea hit him. How could he have over looked that and it was right in front of his face?

"Ah I know what I've missed love," he spoke with malicious intent in his voice as he moved away from her cell door, "How could I possibly forget."

Her apple eyes followed his movement until he was out of her vision. She knew exactly what he was going to do, and she knew that there was nothing she could do about. It was inevitable at this point.

Madara stopped in front of Naruto's cell once more and ran his fingers across the metal bars, "I've forgotten that you still have your friends my dear Sakura-hime."

"Don't you worry about me Sakura-Chan!" Naruto yelled back at her, knowing she would try to stop the new dictator, "Don't let him win!"

"Naruto," she spoke weakly as she hung her head once more, tears edging to the rims of her thick lashes, "You're all I have left."

Naruto growled once more, "Don't let him win damn it! We both knew this was going to happen to me some time! Don't let him use it against you! You're stronger than that!"

Madara stayed silent during their exchange with his arms crossed against his chest as he leaned on Naruto's cell. He knew that if he took the Kyuubi's life, it would either make Sakura submit to him or she would defy him until it resulted in her own death.

It was a risky plan, but he knew that she would willingly give herself up to keep him safe; even if it did cost him the collection of the Kyuubi.

"How bout we make a deal love," Madara began as he slowly made his way back over to her cell, small smirk present on his face, "I'll let him live, if you surrender to me.

She blinked away the tears that threatened to fall then looked up into the vindictive Uchiha's red eyes, searching for the truth behind his words.

She had to know what he said was true, because when it came to Naruto's life, she wasn't taking any chances.

"How can I be sure that you'll stay true to your word?" the damaged pinkette asked quietly as she let out a short laugh, "You've given me no reason to trust you."

"Ah," he sounded in approval as he leaned his side against her cell, "But would you rather have a slim chance at his protection or none at all?"

The kunoichi wanted to reply but her words stayed stuck in her throat. He had a point.

If she were to refuse, they would most likely kill Naruto right here and now. If she agreed to his terms, it might give him more of a chance. But he even just admitted, he may not keep his word.

'Don't listen to the bastard,' her inner spoke, 'He's a fucking snake!'

'You've been rather quiet,'she chided quietly back at her.

'Tch, I wanted to see where all of this went. Obviously not in a good direction.'

'Well you can forget it,' Sakura replied back, 'Naruto is more important than my freedom at this point.'

Her innered scoffed, 'Always knew you'd do something like this for a guy.'

Emerald met red in a locked gaze as she exhaled quietly, "What is it that you want from me?"

The Uchiha smiled wildly, "Your submission."

"No Sakura! You can't do it! Don't do it!" Naruto yelled as he thrashed in his restraints.

She kept her gaze locked with his own. Naruto was all she had left.

"I'll do it."

'You idiot.'

"NO!"

Madara's sadistic smile widened even more as he looked at her, "As you wish Sakura."

The new ruler of the village hidden in the leaves walked slowly away from the cell of his new possession.

'I win my dear cherry blossom. I always win.'
