Chapter 76 - Shikamaru/Sakura - The one where you sense danger
If someone asked, it would be hard to describe the way it felt when one 's soulmate was in danger. It was almost like a tingling sensation in the back of your head, as if someone had reached within your skull and run their finger against your inner thoughts. It was similar to the way that one could sense eyes that stared, the way a lie could be detected through a mere gut feeling.
Luckily no one would ever actually need to ask since everyone in the world experienced the sensation at one time or another. Sakura was grateful that she would never need to try and explain the sensation or describe it because she was sure she would never be able to find the words to express it properly. She was not grateful, however, that she was forced to experience it so often. She was happy that she and her other half had so much on common but there were certain downsides to having a shinobi soulmate.
