So, this is that ItaSaku AU piece I mentioned in a previous post. This is just a glimpse into it, the plot bunny that wouldn't let me be.
Some helpful info: It takes place in a futuristic Konoha. Technology has evolved in leaps and bounds and has left everything - and everyone - else behind. The city itself is thriving, shiny, and new. Medical advances have been made improving prosthetics, implants, and the such. But those that can't afford the new technology live in the outskirts of town where homes are still tiny and little more than run down shacks.
The Shinobi force is a special military group headed by the Hokage. They take special missions that involve those criminals that every day police force can't handle - or even know exist. Sakura was once a Shinobi, but is now a force in the criminal organization known as the Akatsuki. Before she joined the Akatsuki she took part in the Shuriken program which allows her to see an and all chakra - in any place it was used by a ninja (because manipulated chakra, they discovered, looks different than the natural flow of it that every person has). She was implanted with a chip that when used in conjunction with the Shuriken injection allows her access to the Kage System, a large database of sorts.
She was given a secret mission by Tsunade before her death, and now that her friends and her country sees her as a threat, only a few know of her true purpose, including the people she had thought least likely to: The Akatsuki organization itself. In addition to her mission she seeks to find the truth about Tsunade's death and the disappearance of Sasuke.
Warnings: Some drug use (Shuriken), language, and sexual content
