"Killing makes you beautiful," the older ninja hissed against her lips, "When you kill, you're the most beautiful thing I've ever seen." she trailed a sharp fingernail up Sakura's neck and continued, "That's what Orochimaru's telling him."

Sakura closed her eyes and leaned into the next kiss. She used her tongue and teeth and hands and realized she'd never really been kissed before. Anko drew back and whispered, "He's already gone. Next time you see him, he won't be your Sasuke anymore."

Sakura shook her head and put her hands on Anko's shoulders, in her hair. Her fingers danced across the ashen scar of the curse seal, "That doesn't matter to me. He'll always be my Sasuke."

Anko just looked at her sadly before carefully unwinding their bodies, "I suppose, Sakura, that's why you're beautiful."
