+THE CRISIS OF A CHERRY BLOSSOM+
Chapter 1 - First Day
Narrator: A cherry blossom looks very pretty as it slowly falls to the ground...
"Today's my first day at a new school, the lady next door won't shut up and leave her overworked man alone, there's no hot water because the heater FELT like breaking down today of all days and I CAN'T FIND MY HAIRBRUSH! AAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!"
"SHUT UP NOBODY CARES ABOUT YOUR HAIR!" came a shout from next door. Sakura stopped fixing her tie, ran to her window and retaliated, "YEAH WELL NO ONE CARES ABOUT YOU NOT BEING ABLE TO PAY YOUR RENT HURRY UP AND LEAVE YOU OLD HAG!" and she slammed her window closed right after.
"Need to hurry and leave before that woman can catch me at the door~...!" Sakura sang-thought as she ran downstairs to grab some breakfast while combing her hair with her fingers.
"Sakura Dear! Dinner's ready! Hurry up and come down! I'd love to hear about your first day! Meet a guy?" A woman's voice shouted as the girl entered the kitchen. Sakura nearly tripped at what was said,
"Mom it's 6:30 AM. I haven't gone to school yet you are waaaaaay ahead of time. Plus! I can't think of guys now; grades are what got me into this school and that's what's gonna get me through it!"
"Is wasn't easy to get a transfer into this place."
"Yes, yes miss 21 year old. Whether you want it to happen or not I can bet a million dollars that someone will stir your heart at this school."
"Try and get that kind of money first before you start making bets like that..." Sakura responded.
"Ah, I suppose you're right..." her mother trailed off.
"I'm sorry! I didn't mean it like that!"
"It's okay dear. Let's just hope the kids at school are as understanding of you quick tongue as I am. Hurry up and eat breakfast. It's the last thing I'm doing for the day well, yesterday." her mother said covering her mouth as she yawned and sat at the counter.
"Well that solves the case of the missing hairbrush..." Sakura sighed as she used a mitten to take out the hair utensil from the frying pan on the stove.
"Mom why'd you cook my hairbrush for breakfast?" Sakura asked completely uninterested in the response. She was used to such events.
"Oh that's what it was! No wonder it was giving so much trouble. Sorry dear I'm just too tired. I'm heading off to bed. Have fun at school." her mother said groggily and dragged her feet across the floor and upstairs.
Sakura quickly grabbed a pop tart from the box and ate it as she walked to the door.
"No time to heat this up I'm running late! Note to self: buy hairbrush on the way home from school today."
She glanced at the mirror on the wall as she went through the door leaving her house. "Good I at least look decent. And it's quiet so maybe-"
"I THOUGHT YOU WERE A NICE LITTLE GIRL BUT IT LOOKS LIKE YOU HAVE NO MANNERS YOUNG LADY. I HAVE A MIND TO TAKE THIS UP WITH YOUR PARENTS RIGHT NO-" the lady next door shouted out but Sakura quickly ran past her shouting,
"SORRY NOBODY CARES IF YOU DON'T LIKE MY QUICK TONGUE THEN DON'T TELL ME TO SHUT UP NEXT TIME. HI !" Sakura shouted and waved at the overworked man standing at his doorstep.
The man looked at her and waved slowly, wrinkles under his eyes from lack of sleep but also from smiling.
"DONT WAVE TO HER SHE IS RUDE!" the woman on the sidewalk shouted back to the man who quickly ran inside with a "yes ma'am".
[IN FRONT OF THE SCHOOL]
"7:45. I'm early. Awesome." Sakura thought smiling to herself. Even though the bus left her she ended up outrunning it and actually had the audacity to stick her tongue out at the driver when it stopped at a red light.
She stretched out her foot, about to take a step to cross the road to the school when a limousine with a loud horn shooed her out of the street with a sudden jerked parking.
An old man got out and asked her if she was okay but was immediately shouted at with an order to open the back door. He apologized and went to open the door. A foot in an extremely high high heel stepped unto the pavement and a girl came out flashing her hair.
The wind conveniently blew, making her entrance look even more dramatic. Sakura raised her eyebrows in awe and confusion. The girl was wearing the same uniform as she was, but she also had on accessories that Sakura was sure cost over 5 million each. The girl turned and looked and the pink haired child,
"If you paid attention to the road more, then my sad, pathetic driver wouldn't have to bother with you. Oh? you go to school here? Humph! Couldn't afford anything so you decided to dye your hair pink? You're even more pathetic than him! Jeffery, pick me up at 3:00 SHARP."
"What a rude little girl. If you ran me over I wonder who'd pay for my hospital bills..." Sakura said but quickly covered her mouth remembering what her mother told her about her quick tongue.
"What was that? You think just because you go to this school you're on equal ground with me? DON'T even try. Your life will be hell here if you do." and with that the girl pushed Sakura out of the way and walked across the road entering the school compound.
Sakura sighed, picked up her bag that fell, and followed the direction of the girl. She stood at the entrance and gaped. A sign above her head read "Green Leaf High School"
"Green Leaf...and high...GANJA SCHOOL ROFL" Sakura thought and snickered as she walked along the concrete pathway to the school building. She suddenly realized that the pathway was a lot longer than it seemed, especially when walking alone. And ESPECIALLY when everyone was in little groups on the lawn on both sides of the pathway glaring or sending looks of disgust her way. Sakura just discretely power walked her way into the building.
As she passed the girl from the limo earlier, the girl scoffed. On entering the building Sakura collapsed to her knees in the hallway as she shouted out,"WHY IS HEAVEN SO FAR AWAY SOMETIMES!"
She quickly got up and brushed off her clothes. She was about to take a step when the doors behind her opened and a stampede of children walked down the hall, some stopping at their lockers. Sakura was pushed along as if in the ocean and dropped off in an empty corridor shortly.
She got up and brushed off her butt muttering "Insensitive children...". Turning around, she decided to explore the hallway that 'chose her', when a voice called out to her.
"YOU!"
"Who Me?" Sakura replied just as loud.
"YES YOU!"
"I'm sorry we haven't met you must be mistaken-" Sakura said as she turned back around, slightly scared of the children at this new school.
"WAIT!" the girl called out and started to chase after. She had blonde hair kept in a high ponytail and a long side bang covering one eye.
Sakura ran back down the corridor but it was blocked by children walking at one mile per hour and just taking up space. "Stupid cows! Move! Move cows move!" Sakura thought jumping up and down on the spot.
Unfortunately the girl caught up with Sakura and glomped the child making her face plant the ground.
"Why must I be close to the ground all the time?" Sakura muttered under the weight of the blonde.
"Finally! I thought you'd never stop! I'm on the student council and it's my duty to know EVERYONE in this school. My name is Ino and I'd like to be your first friend!" The girl called Ino said perkily.
"GET OOOOFFFF~" Sakura groaned and the girl jumped off startled. Sakura got up and sighed once again. She looked up at the girl angrily but her face suddenly changed to one of shock and then a small smile as she shook hands with the cheery person in front of her.
"She's so perky...and she's really pretty too. She must be popular with all the guys..."
"Sooooooo?" Ino asked leaning forward.
"What?" Sakura said taking a step back. 'Weirdo' on her face as she stared back at Ino.
"Am I gonna be your first friend?"
"Uh, okay?" Sakura said, still scared.
"Great! Let me give you a tour around your new school then!" Ino said loudly.
"Or your new prison..." a voice said from behind the two sending chills down the pink-haired girl's spine.
Sakura turned around to see a brunette twirling a kunai around her finger and smirking evilly. Sakura jumped and took a step back. Ino did the opposite.
"Tenten! You're here too! Welcome to a new term! This is my new friend- what's your name again?" the blonde said turning to the girl beside her who was sweat dropping.
"Haruno Sakura."
"That's nice! Now let's get going. If only Hinata was here..." Ino trailed off looking around.
"I'm here." a slightly shorter girl replied and Sakura jumped away with hands blocking, just in case.
"That was fast. Now the gang's all here! Let's get going!" Ino said, putting an arm around the two girls' shoulders and walking down the corridor.
"Come on Sakura! This tour is pointless if you're not here!" Ino shouted out without looking behind once.
"! Coming!" Sakura called and ran to catch up with them.
[IN THA HALLWEH]
"AHAAAA!"
"What's that?" Sakura asked startled by the sudden scream.
"Oh that's just Naruto. His big mouth can be heard anywhere in the school." Ino explained. Sakura nodded her head and accepted the information without thinking too much on it.
"Let's see what's happening." Hinata said in her soft voice.
"Be prepared for disappointment Sakura." Tenten said and Sakura looked at the brunette with a confused face as the group walked to the shout.
"YOU DID IT SASUKE-TEME! YOU STOLE MY RAMEN! YOU JUST COULDN'T DENY THE IRRESISTABLE TASTE OF BROCCOLI CHOCOLATE SUSHI COULD YOU!" a blonde haired boy with an orange bag shouted out while pointing a finger at another boy with navy blue hair.
Sakura assumed he was 'Sasuke'.
"EWWWWWWWW!" was the response from the people surrounding the two and the crowd started to disperse. The look on Sasuke's face showed that he was thinking the same thing in his head.
"I HAVE PROOF! THIS IS YOUR CAP I CAUGHT FROM YOUR HEAD AS YOU LEFT THE KITCHEN AND RAN OUT!"
Sasuke put his hands in his pocket, leaned off the wall, and walked towards Naruto.
"Dobe, if I ever wanted to eat something that disgusting, I could have someone get it for me. And this isn't my hat. It's yours."
The boy flipped the blonde's cap over to show a square of cloth sowed in with the words 'property of the 5th principal' written badly on it.
"Oh...sorry about that Sasuke...hehe...but if it wasn't you...then...and he was trying to steal my cap too! That teme..."
"Hn." Sasuke said and walked off. A girl ran after him after sticking her tongue out at Naruto and telling him not to bother Sasuke.
"Well that was pointless. I guess this school is just full of a bunch of kids from rich families with connections because this one is DEFINITELY not a smart one."
Sasuke walked past the group, glancing at Sakura without stopping. The girl that followed Sasuke was the same girl that almost murdered Sakura with her limo. She told Sakura not to bother Sasuke either with a glare.
Sakura, however, didn't see the girl glare at her because Naruto shouted out again.
"WHO'S THAT!" he shouted out, pointing at her.
