We're Back!
(Sasuke's POV)
It took four days. Four days, of Karin and Sakura bickering, of Karin and Suigetsu bickering, and of Sakura just talking. I was done. I was ready to get back already. I decided three things. 1) Karin was causing most of the problems. 2) Juugo was the only person I could tolerate for a long period of time. 3) Sakura was still annoying. Don't get me wrong, she was definitely attractive now, and stuff. (a/n, Darn Sasuke…afraid to say beautiful lol. jk) But she was still way too talkative for my taste. It was nice to get to catch up the first, oh say, 5 minutes. After that, I really didn't care.
(Sakura's POV)
Four days is way too long. I had to listen to Karin bitch the entire time, and I had to listen to Karin and Suigetsu arguing, when she was arguing with me. In hopes of her backing off, I just kept talking to Sasuke the entire time. It worked. When I was with him, Karin just gave me the evil eye instead of annoying me with her voice, in what I think was talking. I couldn't tell. It was more like an annoying Buzz in my ear. I don't even know what I was saying to Sasuke. I just babbled. I felt bad for the guy really. I wouldn't want to listen to me that much… But this was serious. I didn't want to have to fight her again. Not that I couldn't. I just didn't feel like it.
(Regular POV)
"Welcome back!" Sakura said to Sasuke, as they neared the gates of Konoha.
"Hn," He…replied. Karin and Suigetsu were yelling at each other- again- and trailing shortly behind Sasuke and Sakura. Juugo was following them quietly. As they walked through the market place, it seemed as if everything had gone silent. Well, not completely silent. Sakura swore she heard everyone whispering her name at the same time.
They reached to Hokage's office, ignoring the mountainside.
'That's strange…' Sakura thought 'What happened to Tsunade-sama's nameplate on the door…' She had the liberty of opening the door of her old sensei's office.
"Tsunade-sama?" She said towards the desk. The chair swung around, revealing the Hokage in her robe and hat. When she looked up, it was a different blond that greeted to former leaf ninja.
(a/n Who is it?? Don't worry. This isn't the end of the chapter… Although, if you're smart you should already know who the new Hokage is…)
"Sasuke-teme! Sakura-chan! How do you like the new gear?! When I heard you came back, I put it on so you could see! What do you think?" asked Naruto as he took off his hat.
"Naruto… Where's Tsunade?" Sakura asked a bit scared. Did something happen to her?
"Off gambling somewhere. She resigned last year!" Sakura sighed in relief. Gaara's the Kazekage, and Naruto's the Hokage… All of a sudden, she felt inferior to Naruto. She wasn't surprised though. He was always so persistent. It was just a matter of time…
"So Sasuke, did you beat your asshole brother?" Naruto asked his former teammate. Sasuke didn't say anything but he did nod his head.
"I see you're still a jerk… Unfortunately, I can't let you two… five, off completely. So you're all on probation for the next month" Sakura lowered her head in defeat. She new she was going to have to face the punishment sooner or later, but she'd rather it be later.
"Not five" Sasuke spoke up for the first time "These three aren't staying"
"We're not?" Karin asked.
"They're not?" Sakura said excitedly. She didn't want to deal with Karin anymore. Sasuke shook his head. Karin looked like she was about to burst.
"Fine Sasuke, I never like you anyway!" She said, as Suigetsu snorted/laughed.
"Yea right, remember a few years ago, when for some reason, you still had Sasuke's torn up clothes? You're right. You don't like him, you're a stalker" Suigetsu finished. He started to leave the room, with Karin following, shouting at him. Juugo followed to two silently.
With them gone, Team 7 was left to just talk, which is exactly what they did.
(a/n Chapter 1 up! Yay! It literally only took, about 15 minutes to write. Does it sound like a bunch of mush? You tell me R&R. I know this was really short. Typically my chapters are really short… But come on. I can only keep focused for so long)
Me: Sasuke, you barely uttered a word this chapter! Are you angry?
Sasuke: Hn.
Me: Hn? What does 'hn' mean? Yes or no, are you angry?
Sasuke: Hn.
Me: Come on!!! YES OR NO?!"
Sasuke: … No. Now shut up.
Me: Ok! .
