my flesh is an offering to you (i’ll devote myself to your happiness) by doveonlifesupport
Sakura has always been ambitious when it comes to love. But just how far is she willing to go to ensure the man of her dreams loves her back, even after he abandoned her?
prompt: Voodoo
Quote: “It's okay, just let go and feel me”
required rest by twofortea
rest:
1. cease work or movement in order to relax, refresh oneself, or recover strength
2. be placed or supported so as to stay in a specified position
dreams come true (tea time) by bluemingqueen
Sakura is so comfortable with Kakashi, now that they work together as medical director and Rokudaime, respectively. She's even developed a little crush on her former teacher.
But was her trust misplaced?
For KakaSaku Dead Dove Week 2026
Prompt: Sleepover
Quote: "I never thought you were the type"
Perfume by DucklynStark
When it's discovered that Hatake Kakashi might have a kekkei genkai, and he'll do anything for Konoha. Until he gets a whiff of that beautiful perfume that Tsuande occasionally wears.
Staking Her Claim by xylazine
When fate didn't give her a soulmate at eighteen, Sakura decided to take matters into her own hands.
vodouisant by hidden_in_the_mist
The Priestess's face is heavy as Kakendy explains the situation: that their Section Chief is an abomination - that his crimes are the sort that should have caused Papa Death, caretaker of all young children, to squish the man where he stands - but that the Section Chief is still alive and well. Meaning that Papa Death must not have seen what the Section Chief's been doing. Meaning the Section Chief must have some powerful talisman protecting him.
Meaning that someone needs to strip that man of his talisman so that he can be killed.
And Kakendy has chosen to make this problem his business. God-willing, he succeeds.
-
yet another fic where Kakashi tries to focus on the mission, but the universe keep redirecting him to Sakura. Except, this time, in Haiti.
claim by doveonlifesupport
A better teacher, a better man, would have shaken their head and put as much distance between himself and Sakura. Would have done anything to avoid hurting her.
But Kakashi had never been a good man.
Sakura presents as an omega on one of Team Seven's first out of village missions. It's the opportunity Kakashi has been waiting for.
KakaSaku Dead Dove Week 2026
Prompt: omegaverse
Ties that Bind by xylazine
When Kakashi's name appears on Sakura's skin far too soon, he seals the bond away until he can find a way to permanently sever the mark.
If only he'd done the same to her name on his body.
Culpability by OrnamentalHeart
He falls apart after Sasuke defects and Team 7 fractures apart; then pieces himself back together over subsequent years with whiskey and women and a darkness that lies just beneath his skin, hiding in plain sight. And it is Sakura, naive and lonely, who gets caught in the tangled web of his own self-destruction.
Side Effects by hananokage
During a mission, Sakura and Kakashi fall into an enemy trap that leaves them without choice or control, permanently damaging the line between student and teacher.
Tell No Tales by twofortea (chapter 4)
The last thing Sakura remembers is stopping by Hokage Tower, and now…
Velvet Desire by rosebrided
Desperate for money to help pay off her father's debt to the most infamous yakuza organization, the Akatsuki, Sakura turns to sex work while balancing university. She thinks her secret is safe—until Professor Hatake Kakashi finds out. Right in the middle of his class.
Wicked Game by MikaOfTheLeaf
Kakashi had finally realized that after everything he’d sacrificed for the village – all the blood, all the friends, all the could have and should have beens that had never happened – he was entitled to get something back.
And after everything Sasuke had done, he deserved to be the one to give it to him.
or; Kakashi is tired of sacrificing everything and getting nothing in return and finally decides to take what he wants.
He falls apart after Sasuke defects and Team 7 fractures apart; then pieces himself back together over subsequent years with whiskey and women and a darkness that lies just beneath his skin, hiding in plain sight. And it is Sakura, naive and lonely, who gets caught in the tangled web of his own self-destruction.
After Naruto leaves to train with Jiraiya, the fracture of yet another Team 7 becomes complete.
Naruto is gone. Sasuke has defected. Sakura has taken a new path—sought a better teacher, one that wouldn’t fail her as he had done, dedicating himself to the most vulnerable of their team only for the effort to bear no fruit. There are no teams with openings nor is there demand for high rank solo missions. With the way his heart bleeds out from the place Sasuke once occupied, the way he aches day after day, he seeks solace in the familiar—in the murky shadows from which no one will hear him scream.
After half a decade, he returns to ANBU.
Just as it had before, it makes his blood sing—drowns out the keening of his suffocating heart. For a time, he is able to lose himself in the haze of wanton destruction and the violent, chaotic frenzy of slaughter. He takes the longest missions—the ones that send him out of the village for weeks at a time—hiding from his failures, from the ache, behind the mask.
But inevitably when he returns to Konoha, he is forced to face it: Another team 7, destroyed. Another Uchiha, lost to madness. Another tragedy he couldn’t prevent. Another failure to add to his growing list.

So sorry for the previous post which was incomplete (more coffee was needed this morning). THIS post contains the titles and summaries for all 27 fics that were published for this year's KakaSaku Dead Dove Week 2025. The fics can all be found in this year's AO3 collection.
Please read the tags before checking out the full works. If something is going to make you uncomfortable, don't read it. You are responsible for curating your own fanfiction experience.
Thank you to everyone who participated, encouraged, commented, read, kudosed, and cheered on our amazing creators! Looking forward to future kksk dd events 🖤
Without further ado...
Compatibility level 99.6% by BelleDayNight
Post-war birthrates in Konoha are low.
The Fire Daimyo issues an order to boost those numbers.
Sakura is part of the science team to create an algorithm to find the most compatible partners amongst the shinobi of Konoha.
Soon to be Rokudaime, Kakashi feels obligated to participate in the Daimyo's pairing lottery. He shouldn't ask his people to do something he's not willing to do himself.
Kakashi and Sakura are partnered with the highest compatibility score -- they aren't complaining!
Night Watch by xylazine
Kakashi has a suggestion to make time pass more quickly during a long stretch of night watches. Sakura agrees, not quite knowing what she's agreeing to.
Sweet Dreams by Anonymous
He was supposed to be on lookout, watching for any wayward enemies who were unfortunate enough to stumble upon them while they were this far away from civilization.
But the sounds of her soft snores drew his attention more than the dark and quiet treeline.
Tell No Tales by twofortea
The last thing Sakura remembers is stopping by Hokage Tower, and now…
Kakashi's Kunoichi: A Lesson in Piss by rosebrided
She sat up a little straighter. A special lesson?
Part of her beamed at the idea of having his sole attention without the others, for once. No Naruto, no Sasuke. Just her and Kakashi-sensei.
But whatever it was, it couldn't be good. Not after he caught her red-handed.
Kakashi took half a step closer, forcing Sakura to scoot backwards—and collide with a tree. With her back against the trunk and the rough bark digging into her palms, she was trapped.
Why was she afraid? She had no reason to be afraid of him. This was only Kakashi-sensei. Team Seven's leader. She trusted him.
Or: Sakura tries to catch a glimpse of Sasuke peeing and Kakashi catches her.
Ramen Glory Hole by xylazine
Naruto shows Sakura an exclusive new ramen spot. A confusion of doors leads to something else entirely.
Just Another Hole in the Wall by Anonymous
As always, most of Sakura’s adventures in life began with a push (or a dare, or a threat) from Ino.
Traveling to other countries just to explore, rather than run herself into the ground with her work at the hospital? An Ino-enforced idea.
Eating spicy food until she built up to the tolerance of a normal person? She and Ino had suffered runny noses and stinging lips together for the duration of a month.
Finding herself stuffed halfway through a hole in the wall, waiting on a stranger to pull her legs apart and show her a good time? Sakura didn’t even want to think about the night of drunken admissions and dares that led her to this situation.
The wolf and the lamb by xylazine
Sakura receives a mysterious invitation to the Midnight Masquerade. What surprises await her there?
Dirty Little Secret by MikaOfTheLeaf
Sakura has developed a crush on her Sensei and writes all about her secret desires in a diary. Kakashi has always liked reading, and he's itching to get his hands on that little book she's always toting around.
The Hound's Desire by XXYandereChanXX
Kakashi’s job should have been simple—kill the man who had stolen from Mayor Minato and leave a message for anyone else who thought it was a good idea to cross his boss. A quick, clean job, something that was child’s play for him. But then he met Sakura, the niece of Keitaro Haruno.
Kakashi, a seasoned hound for Konoha, had never wanted anything as much as he wanted her. The moment their paths crossed, everything shifted. Her innocence, her strength—it was intoxicating in a way he couldn't quite explain, a draw he couldn’t resist. In all his years of ruthless work, he had never been so consumed by desire, so captivated by someone.
Sakura, sweet and unaware, had unknowingly stepped right into his trap. She would never see it coming. Kakashi had carefully constructed every move, every word, every detail—he would have her, and she wouldn’t even realize the danger she was in until it was far too late.
polarization by xylazine
In need of cash, Sakura signs up for a "sleeping beauty" service. Little does she know the dark path this will lead her down.
In Such Bitter Desire by twofortea
Kakashi wasn’t expecting to go into a sudden rut while out on a mission. Luckily, the ninken have a plan.
disquiet by xylazine
Kakashi's worst nightmare unfolds when he and Sakura are captured by rogue missing-nin.
At Least You’re Alive (You Might as Well Be Useful For Once) by Fusionblitz28
Her hand weaves through his hair until she finds a patch to hold onto and pulls his head backwards towards her face, “You shouldn’t fight so much, it won’t do you any good,” she whispers. “You’re mine now, Sensei. Now Sit.” She uses her chakra to push him down and he tumbles forward, a heap at her feet.
Kakashi awaits his death sentence.
Instead he becomes a pet under new ownership.
He isn't Konoha's bitch anymore.
He's Sakura's.
Prisoner of Your Love by arichii98, Koneko_taichou
After being spurned by her long-time love interest, Sakura is through waiting around for him to realize they belong together.
They're going to create a life together and be happy.
Whether he agrees willingly or not.
fervent by xylazine
An induced rut claws beneath Kakashi's skin and relief comes in an unexpected form.
impartment by xylazine
Duty always comes first. Until Sakura makes a request he's unable to resist.
Kakashi's Lying Kunochi by XXYandereChanXX
Sakura lied all the time—it came as easily as breathing. But she never lied to her teacher...until she did. She shouldn't have done that.
Ravenous by xylazine
Kakashi realizes he views Sakura as more than just a teammate and friend. Only, instead of his words, he takes matters into his own hands. In pretty much the worst way possible.
young and beautiful by twofortea
The next phase of Sakura's training starts now.
revolting by xylazine
Kakashi dreams about teaching the solider formerly known as Haru a lesson she won't forget.
We've Only Just Begun by MikaOfTheLeaf
After losing everything, Sakura finally has a chance to finally start rebuilding her life when she receives her first mission orders since before the end of the war. It's been months since Sasuke disappeared in the middle of the night again, leaving her and the village behind for a second time. She hasn't seen Kakashi in a year, and she has no idea when she walks back into his life that he's been struggling with his feelings for her ever since he saved her life under the Samurai Bridge years ago. Will she be able to trust herself enough to let him in, or will the damage done by her first heartbreak be too much to overcome?
Fangs Of Passion by XXYandereChanXX
The Hatake clan is said to take only one mate, but what few know is that they recognize them the moment they meet. Kakashi tried to deny it, but when a jutsu caused his kekkei genkai to surge uncontrollably, his instincts took over. There was no escaping the truth anymore—he had to accept it. Hopefully, Sakura could handle the undeniable truth—that she was his.
as desperation takes hold by twofortea
Everything falls apart in seconds.
Sweet Girl by LolaLot
“Kakashi-sensei?” Sakura looked up at him with those same eyes she had when she was twelve and his student. Hungry for guidance, a little scared, but still so sharp. “How far am I supposed to go to help others? How far is too far?”
Staring down at her, Kakashi didn’t have an answer.
Being a war hero hadn’t saved him, and it wouldn’t save Sakura either.
For them, there were no heroes.
Her Soul For Mine by MikaOfTheLeaf
“Promise me,” Tsunade said. “Promise me you won’t back out, that you won’t let him break her.”
Kakashi's rage flared and he shot her a venomous look, speaking before he could stop himself. “It’s better for me to break her instead?” He hissed, unable to restrain his anger at the situation any longer.
Tsunade’s eyes softened, but she couldn’t look him in the face as she quietly said, “You won’t,” she sounded so sure of herself, as though she had absolute faith in him. It made him sick. She continued, “You’ll leave her with her soul, Kakashi. Sakura will be able to heal, she’ll find a way to move past this. Do you think she’d fare so well with him?”
groom by doveonlifesupport
Groom:
1. (Noun) A man just married or about to be married
2. (Verb) To prepare someone for an objective or purpose
Kakashi is given a second chance, to fix what Uchiha Madara broke. But avoiding the Fourth War isn't the only thing he's determined to change.
