Sakura panted heavily looking around her room, her body was covered in a cold sweat she sighed before sitting up and rubbing her face. Her nightmares have been getting worse as the days go on the battle of Sasori continued to haunt her. She stretched before walking towards her shower to get ready for her day. She emerged from the shower with steam exiting her bath room following her slightly before disappearing.

She decided to styled her hair in low pig tails for the day, she wore a black top with a key hole in the front on her chest and no sleeves showing her tone arms. Her top clung to her form ending right at her waist were she wore crismon capri pants that were skin tight and black heels similar to the hokage. Her family crest on her back shown proudly. She hummed happily as she left her house.

Sakura smiled towards her neighbors and her village as she made her way to the Hokages office. She spotted hinata walking down the street before she could say hi she saw the purple hair woman smile and wave towards Sakura's own blonde hair teammate who blushed and ran towards Hinata. Sakura happily smiled at the fact that maybe Naruto and hinata have finally admitted their feelings for another one. Choosing not to interrupt the amount she continued towards the Hokage's Tower.

"Sakura-chan.." Genma said as sakura approached the doors that lead to the hokage tower Kakashi next to him nose deep in his book. He looked and spotted his former student walking towards them. Sakura smiled at the two males unaware of Genma stares.

"Sakura, how are you this day?" Kakashi said as he put the book away in his pouch taking in her clothes noticing she didn't wear her usual attire. Meaning she had the day off from the hospital. Sakura turned towards the sliver hair male.

"Im doing well Kakashi, I was hoping Shishou had some missions for me." she said as she crossed her arms. They agreed after Suna that Sakura and Naruto no longer had to call him sensei seeing they had different sensies now and worked as team. "What are you two up to today." She asked them before Kakashi can voice his disapproval of her trying to work when she should be relaxing.

"Nothing really, we should get going though. We need help Mrs. Takahashi cross the street. Come on Genma." Kakashi said as he yanked Genma away from his former student as he was getting closer and closer to her. "Bye Sakura have a good day" he said as he pushed Genma away who protested once he realized what was occurring. Sakura waved at them confused before going inside the tower.

She reached the top floor knocking on her shishou door, before entering into the room. She stood confused when she saw Shizune looking worriedly at Tsunade who was muttering to herself before slamming her hand on her desk.

"Shishou?" Sakura said as she entered the room fully. Tsunade looked at the pinkette before shaking her head "Sakura you have the day off why are you here?" she said sternly and began writing freecely and crossing what looked like names off a list.

"Eto…I came here for a mission but it seems like something is bugging you? I can always come back." Sakura offered as she waited.

"Tsnuade -sama perhaps she is the only one. Shes qualified liked you and I are so this will be our best bet." Shizune said after a moment of silence in the room. Tsunade sighed and began to rub her temples.

"Sakura when was your battle with Sasori?" she asked, Sakura remained quiet. Was it four weeks ago? She thought to herself. "Do you think you can handle long term missions are you capable of going back to Suna, are you in the right mind set." Tsunade asked as she stood up and walked towards her apprentice. Waiting for her answer patiently as she stared at her judging her posture and face.

"It was about four weeks ago and I think a long term mission would be nice I need a change of pace and I don't mind going back to Suna. And are we really talking about my mind set Shishou?" Sakura answering the hokage who nodded her head at each answer. "Whats going on Shishou?" Sakura asked. Tsnuade leaned on her desk her back towards the window.

"Suna, they request a qualified medic to assist them with a urgent issue. However I can not give you details. If you decided you want this mission you may go." She said as she walked back to her desk satisfied with her students body language. "However if you get there and believe you can not handle it you will leave Immediately. Myself and Shizune will then go instead. We don't want to harm our relations with Suna. Do you understand Sakura?" Tsunade finished as she leaned on her desk arms supporting her face as she looked into Jade eyes.

Sakura looked back into Tsunade eyes and turn towards Shizune who looked at her with a blank face.

It be nice to leave by ourselves Sakura, we haven't had any missions since the battle with Sasori.

Yeah, we can even see Temari and visit Chiyo-baasama's grave. We can handle whatever the mission is im sure.

With a determine look on her face, she smiled and nodded to Tsunade, "When do I leave Tsnuade-sama?" Sakura asked happily, eager to leave.

Tsnuade smiled slowly and hander her a S rank mission folder. Sakura stared wide eye at it, what the hell is going on in Suna that they need this mission rank folder. Must be urgent. "You leave immediately to Suna pack your bags and go ill tell them to expect you tonight or tomorrow morning depend on when you leave." Tsnuade said as she looked down at her paper work and began filing and writing. Sakura turned and began to head to the door. "Oh, and Sakura. What ever you see and what ever you do. You will not tell anyone the essence of your mission. Read that the minute you get home and burn it."

"Hai shishou. Thank you for the opportunity and mission." Sakura smiled as she left the room. The door closed softly with a soft clicked. Shizune sighed quietly before going to the couch on the side of the room.

"That scroll doesn't tell her whats really going on in Suna Tsnuade-sama, why didn't you let her read the letter?" Shizune as she laid down comfortly.

"It'll be more interesting this way. Beside she will be able to handle it." Tsnuade said as she stood and folded the letter. She walked over to a messenger hawk and tied it on the foot before it flew away. "Good luck Sakura." She whispered as she turn back around and sat her desk continuing the paper.

SAKURA'S HOUSE

Sakura smiled happily as began packing summer clothes and stored them in a scroll she continued to hum putting different things in different scrolls. She happily looked around and grab the mission scroll Tsnuade had given her.

Might as well read it now before we go. Hokage-sama, we urgently request you or someone to your level to come to Suna Immediately. Kazekage-sama as fallen ill. The letter attached this will explain in greater detail. Please hurry. Respectfully Temari-san. What letter Sakura?

Confused Sakura looked around and frowned and there was no letter attached. Maybe shishou didn't give it to us on purpose? That is always a possibility. But why? Sakura shrugged before looking over the scrolls she stored gear in. 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. I have everything I leave. Now to get change and leave.

Sakura grabbed the clothes she had laid out. She emerged in a Crimson crop top with a white circle proudly in the front, the top was sleeveless but was basically a turtle neck. she wore black cargo pants and her signature boots. She grabbed her red pouch and strapped to her waist showing the two pouches one on each hip and her scrolls strapped behind her in a row. She grabbed her fingerless gloves and looked at the white markings on the palm of each glove that allowed her to summon either a shuriken or a Kunai without reaching into her pouch.

She then walked towards her room and in the corner was her sword (picture the one Sasuke owns) she smiled as she picked it up. She removed the sheath revealing a chrome sliver colored blade with the Haruno crest etched onto it near the handle. She gripped the handle admiring the crimson red wrapping. Below the handle was a single white striped that a sakura blossom charm on a string that dangled down before it was nothing but red wrapping.

Once she fully removed it she stared at the middle of the sword, more etching deep within the sword revealed the words Crimson Blossom. Staring at the sword and putting the sheath back on it before resting it on her back. Lastly she walked to her head back and tied it at her neck. looking around once more she saw the mission file laying on her bed. She calmly walked over to it and grabbed it. she continued toward her kitchen and set it on fire watching it burn.

Smiling she left a note on her counter in case the boys would come by while she was gone. She explained how to water what plants she had and encouraged them to eat any and all food in her fridge not knowing when she would return. She calmly explained she would be on a simple mission and would try to keep in touch. Smiling again she left the room and made her way to Suna.

SUNA GATES 11:26 PM

Sakura smiled as she saw the gates appear before her. I'm glad my training had built my stamina and charka supply by a shit ton or this would've taken two days instead of one. She thought as she touched the Diamond on her forehead. She stopped running once she guards and calmly inform them of her mission and reasons of being in Suna.

The minute she mention medic and requested by Temari the Guards urged her to follow them quickly. They began to ran towards what look the Kazekage tower for Suna. Sakura confused followed them down instead of up the stairs. Strange, I thought Gaara or Temari would see me first he must be really sick if were going underground. Were probably going to his private quarters for when hes sick here ya know because of his tailed beast. her inner replied equally confused.

Once the reached a double door they banged on it loudly. Sakura looked around noticing you needed a code to get inside. They both bowed before leaving her and returning to the gates with the other guards who watched it while they escorted her.

The door was sung open and Temari stood before her. "Sakura! Thank god!" she said as she hugged her and grabbed her hand dragging her inside.

"Temari-san, whats going on?" Sakura said as she looked around the white hallways clearly resembling a hospital floor. Temari's gripped tighten.

"Its Gaara….Tsnuade's letter said she didn't give you all the details because she felt you would need to see to believe…but after the fight with the Akastuki something strange happened." She said as she stopped in front of the room and turning towards her.

"Gaara….he started to age.." she slowly looking around nervously.. Theres nothing wrong with aging? Maybe hes fucking old now? her inner replied rudely sakura picturing her sitting down annoyed and bored. "he started to age backwards…he's a baby now….we don't think he'll continue to age backwards because hes been that way for awhile. He may be one or younger were not sure…" she finished.

Sakura blinked and blinked and stared. Her inner standing up now mouth open in shock. He's a BABY?! What the fuck…. Temari nodded at her face. "Take me to him." Sakura said truly wanting to see if for herself. Temari grabbed her wrist before she opened the door.

"Another thing….His sand…its like he has shukaku back…it does stuff on its own." Temari said before letting go of her wrist and nodded. Sakura continued to stare before breathing deeply walking inside.

There in contained square was a one year old crimson boy who cried loudly at all the machines hooked up to him, his sand blowing around in the contained area all the doctors on the other side of the plastic safe from the sand. Wide eye sakura stared at the crimson head child. The child continued to cry trying to move his arms and legs from the bed that had him strapped down.

"What the hell is going on?" sakura immediately yelled as she walked into the room. Gaara's crying continued on only louder. The doctors and nurses looked her the male doctor obviously in charge gave her a disgusted face.

"We were hooking up and testing on him and he started to thrash and his sand attacked us. Now who the hell are you girl." He spat as he crossed his arms and stared her. Temari stood to the side curious to see how Sakura would handle this.

"Someone who can do your job better than you. Now get the hell out of my way before I make you." Sakura replied back calmly as she stared hard at the man. He continued to stand there and she smiled sweetly confusing him. she reached forward and grabbed his shoulder applying pressure before he screamed out and crumbled down in pain.

Sakura walked past him and towards the clear wall where the one year old continued to cry she looked to the left and saw the door. She looked around the room and saw a white rag that had yet to be use. She tied it around face using it as a mask to block out the sand. She turned the knob and walked in push against the sand.

A light layer of charka formed around her skin, protecting and healing whatever wounds she received from the sand. when she reached Gaara she began removing the needles that was put in Gaara. She ignored the doctors protest as he banged against the wall yelling. She slowly hummed a mellow tune calming down the baby.

Once she finished removing all the needles he calmed down and she removed the straps. She picked him and up quietly and rocked him back and forth. He stared into her eye and sniffled. The sand finally toned down to a gentle breeze.

"Hello little Kazekage-sama." She whispered as he reached for her face and smiled.
