Accidental confession that may or may not change everything

Sakura got up and didn't bother brushing the dirt from her dress. She had a feeling she was about to get even dirtier. She looked at the memorial stone one last time and memorised the characters. It would serve from that moment on as a reminder of her determination. She wouldn't let Naruto and Sasuke join the names carved on that stone. That was her nindo. Sakura-centric fix-it.

Stolen from her crib as an infant, Sakura is raised as a warrior of Kumoga and taught that Konoha is her enemy. After a battle between clans, she's found within inches of her life by the elite members of the Black Army and brought back to Konoha as a prisoner of war. Can she survive the winter among her enemies? AU fic with 'Viking' themes. #KakaSaku #DarkRomance

Naruto and Sasuke left Sakura pathetically broken, but like any good shinobi she put the pieces back together the only way she knew how: relentless training. Years later Konoha is in the midst of a war and Sakura is a force to be reckoned with. Frankly, she's not even sure if she wants her teammates back. [AU]

Dragged all across Fire Country on boring, simple, and sometimes far-fetched missions, Sakura is pretty sure this still beats them all. Crack galore and beware of hairballs. Slight KakaSaku.

Sakura's too young, Kakashi's too...different, and neither knows what to do with a real, live friend. They both want one, though.

The end is sometimes brought about by a beginning no one predicted. A story of how subtle, even unnoticed changes can bring about a drastic shift. KakaSaku.

Kakasaku Sakura always wanted to see Kakashi unmasked. This was a bit much though...
