Summary
There's been a storm brewing inside Sakura ever since Sasuke left to seek out Orochimaru, and the growing realization that she might not be half the shinobi her teammates are. She's always been the one that held back and let the boys finish the job, but it's clear she can't let herself be the weak one any longer. It's time to take her fate into her own hands.
It started with breaking into a library. But after a slew of what could be arguably called bad decisions, Sakura puts together an unlikely team of shinobi and decides to take on several impossible goals: defeating Akatsuki, keeping her loved ones safe, and, the most impossible goal of all: the unification of the shinobi world.
Sakura's not going to be the weak one of Team Seven anymore.
(A pre-Shippuden divergence AU. Returned from hiatus!)

Summary
It’s a little past noon, and Sakura is stretching her worn-out muscles as she watches her teammates spar. Kakashi-sensei had limited them to kicks only, which neither of them seem to really excel at using, so it’s a battle of much hopping and flailing. It’s amusing, but she dare not laugh; it’s not like she’s any better.
Sakura has only officially been on Team 7 for five days and has figured out pretty quickly that her teammates are on an entirely different level than her.
or
Sakura realizes she can live up to her namesake in one of two ways: float through life as a pretty thing, riding whims like the breeze...or become someone mighty and immovable, protecting the weak from the storm.
She makes her choice.

Summary
Give them a bit of experience, Mizuki had said.
Let them get a taste of what they might want to do with their career, he’d insisted.
Iruka stared down at the file - Haruno Sakura, assigned to Torture and Interrogation.
...What the fuck.

Summary
Other students may have been satisfied with going into team assignments blind, but Sakura was not. If nothing else, it was fun planning how to infiltrate the Academy.
She was a little concerned it was so easy, actually. Something she’d have to bring up with Iruka-sensei in the future- far in the future. Hopefully after she made jounin and he couldn't give her a detention for it.
OR, Sakura is too curious for her own good, which leads to unfortunate revelations about her intended role on Team 7. This, of course, has far-reaching consequences.

Summary
Take a quiet, introverted Sakura with a scientifically minded brain, and a penchant for perfectionism, and throw her onto team 7.
A story of a what-could-have-been, but not necessarily a fix-it.
OR
Sasuke was the rookie-of-the-year, hailed as a genius. But... If more people knew that Sakura had near-perfect chakra control and the brains to put it to use (which she does to Kakashi's fascination and horror), she would be hailed as a prodigy.

Summary
Haruno Sakura is a strange girl, many would say. But not many would see what she sees. Not even for a minute.
(OR: Haruno Sakura can see ghosts and finds out more secrets than she's supposed to because ghosts are horrible, lonely gossips who would really love a listening ear who isn't like the other translucent figures.)

Summary
Sakura has never felt very confident in her soulmark.
Her parents think it's cute, the sign of a troubled but solid romance. Sakura thought they didn’t know what they were talking about, but then puberty kicked in and she thinks it’s actually kind of okay.
(But it's really not okay. Not okay at all.)
