'Inner Sakura Talking to Sakura'

'Sakura talking to Inner'

'Inner Sakura talking out loud'

'Both Sakura & Inner talking out loud'

Notes: Saku is what Inner Sakura will be called. Kura is what Inner calls her outer and is a nickname that Neji also calls Sakura. She only allows him to call her that and no one else, besides her Inner of course.


It was a beautiful morning in the village of Konoha. Children were in the academy learning. Genins were running about doing D rank mission. Chunins were off on missions, relaxing, or doing volunteer work. Jonins were doing many things, same as ANBU.

It would have stayed a nice morning if it weren't for the fact that a scream was heard through out the whole village. People looked around confused, others were annoyed, and some were curious.

Little did anyone know that the scream came from a certain pink haired girl.

'Inner! Why the heck am I in my twelve year old body?' Sakura thought/screamed to her Inner self.

'Easy, don't you remember?'

Sakura thought back to before this morning and suddenly had a sheepish look on her face.

"Whoops." she said aloud. "Forgot I was on a mission."

The girl looked around and was glad that she awoke on this day, yet she wasn't happy. Today was the day of the chunin exams, well, the first part of it anyways.

Quickly Sakura changed into a different type of clothes than from what she usually wore when she was twelve.

Her outfit included a pair of black spandexes, a blood red skirt that ended to her mid-thigh, a light blue shirt that was skin tight, and her father's old jacketwith many places to hide weapons, food, scrolls, and other items. She slid into her blue ninja sandals and tied her long pink locks into a ponytail. She raced out of her room and into her kitchen, then she grabbed an apple and made her way to meet with her team mates.

Upon arriving she saw Naruto looking around with a huge grin on his face. Sasuke had a look of annoyance on his face as he glanced at Naruto from the corner of his eye.

"Ohayo!" Sakura greeted as she threw away her apple core into the nearest trash can.

"Ohayo Sakura-chan!" Naruto grinned.

"Hn." was the greeting Sasuke gave.

"How can you be so hyper in the morning Naruto?" Sakura asked.

"Uh...I really don't know. I guess I just have a lot of energy."

'Ya got that right.' Inner Sakura grumbled.

'Be nice Saku. He is our best friend when it was the future.'

'I know Kura, but seriously, he has way too much energy and I blame that damn fox for making me feel so annoyed right now.'

Sakura laughed inwardly and followed the two boys into the building and towards their destination.

When they arrived Sakura saw Ten Ten get punched by a 'genin'. Even though Sakura saw this before she still thought that it wasn't necessary.

"Hey! Hasn't your mother ever told you that hitting girls is rude?" Sakura said, inwardly she was ready to toy with these people's minds.

"Yeah, but I never listen. hasn't your mother ever told you that little girls should stay home and play with their dollies?"

"My mother is dead, thank you very much. And so is my father. Now, if you'll excuse me I need to get to the third floor." (I can't remember if it was the 3rd or 2nd floor).

"What is she talking about, we are on the third floor." she heard someone whisper.

"She must be dillusional." another one commented.

"This is a genjutsu." Sasuke said.

"Oh, guess we've been found out." the other 'genin' said.

"Seems like your right."

Then with out warning he aimed a kick at Sasuke who also got ready to kick. Both males were stopped by a guy clad in green with a bowl cut hair do and humongous eyebrows.

The he looked over to Sakura and smiled.

'Whoa, he's fast.' we're the thoughts that went through many of the people's minds.

"Hi I'm Rock Lee. And I will protect you forever, please be my girlfriend." the boy announced to Sakura.

"Umm, I'm Sakura, and sorry. But we could be friends if you want." Sakura said.

'I guess I forgotten how he practically yelled for me to be his girlfriend last time.' Sakura said.

'Kura, please...make him go away.' twitched Saku as she tried her hardest not to take over and punch Lee for being way too close.

"Sure!" Lee said, although Sakura did notice the dejected look on his face.

"Lee." said boy turned around to face a boy with long chocolate brown hair and milky white eyes.

'Neji.' Sakura said in her mind.

'I really miss the future now.' Inner Sakura said.

'You're not the only one.'

"Ah, Neji! Ten Ten." Lee said.

"I thought you said to remain low." Neji said. Then he turned to face Sasuke. "What's your name?"

Sasuke smirked. "Isn't common courtesy to say yours before asking someone for theirs?"

"Sasuke." he looked at Sakura. "Stop being a teme. Anyways, this is Uchiha Sasuke." Sakura answered for him.

Neji looked at her with searching eyes. Sakura just smiled and grabbed her two team mates by their arms.

"Well, we'd love to stay and chat, but we have an exam to go too. See you later, bye Lee."

Everyone else watched as the pink haired girl drag her two team mates up the stairs to the exam room.

"Neji?" he looked to see Ten Ten.

"Ah. I wonder if she'll remember."

"Well if she doesn't then we could tell her. Lee, next time don't go over board on the acting like your thirteen year old self did." Ten Ten scolded.

"Sorry my youthful Ten Ten, but I did it to not change the way I met Sakura-san." Lee said.

"Oh, well, try to tone it down a notch." the brunette grumbled as she, Neji, and Lee followed Team Seven's dismissal.

Neji smirked. "Were you jealous Ten Ten?" the Hyuga asked her.

She flushed and muttered some colorful words. Neji could've swore he heard her say something like, "Stupid Hyuga. Saying things like that out loud, he doesn't understand girls. Damn him."

Neji just smirked some more and the three continued on their way to the testing room.
