    Summary

    "He couldn't possibly be anyone else; the similarities between the siblings were too striking. Sakura stared frankly at Itachi, inspecting every inch of him. Her lips parted as she took his measure.

    His sharingan was dormant, but Sakura couldn't look away from the inky black pigment that made up his natural irises. There was a weight to his gaze that could only be described as ancient, carefully controlled into neutrality. But she caught glimpses of a pain so consuming that she thought she might drown in it. He showed no emotion other than tension in his jaw and a frown line between his brows, but Sakura knew, in the marrow of her bones, that he was deeply affected by what he'd done."

    Non-massacre AU. After a tragic death leaves her reeling, Sakura is forced to play a dangerous game in order to survive. She embarks on a long mission to take down a critical player in a cold war between the Uchiha and the Senju. But before they can kill the objective, an unexpected ally presents himself, changing everything. The only thing that she knows for certain is that she has no choice but to find the strength to protect everyone. The fate of everyone she loves hangs in the balance.
