The water rippled lightly as the wind skimmed over it's glassy surface, disturbing the unmoving reflection of the bridge there.
Pale grey clouds suspended in the air lazily trecked thier way across the sky, a beautiful combination with the dark blue of the early morning, giving an atmosphere of peace and serenity.
As the wind traveled from sky to water, from water to sky and past the shops and homes of Konoha it swept past a boquet of flowers laid forgotten before the Yamanaka flower shop.
The flowers, weak and wilting gladly relinquished thier petals to the pull of freedom.
As they soared some petals departed, a few landed on a bench, while others, on the sidewalk.
However, further on thier journey, the wanderers lost some of thier bretheren to an open window and snowy white curtains.
Floating gently, the petals came down to earth, landing on the angelic and peaceful face of Haruno Sakura.
The combination of enhanced senses and a naturally light sleeper caused this to awaken the pink haired girl, lashes fluttering softly against rose tinted cheeks.
Emerald irises met the sight out the window, reflecting the images caught in thier sleepy gaze.
Blinking in confusion as to what woke her up, Sakura yawned softly before turning over to face the opposite direction, intent on getting more sleep before starting her day.
Slipping her left arm underneath her pillow and tucking her right to her chest, she sighed in contentment and began to slip back into the world of illusions when she felt something..or more like the lack of something that jerked her from her relaxed state.
Sitting up abruptly, she hastily pushed her pillow off the bed to stare at the spot it had just been, eyes searching desperately for something that wasn't there.
Eyes wide and lips parted in panic, she slid from the bed and began to skim every possible nook and cranny of her room, only to end up standing in the center of it with a look of anguish adorning her face.
Trying to keep from flying into a full blown panic attack, Sakura thought about where it could possibly be.
Oh no, how could it have went anywhere? It's an inanimate object! It's not like it grew legs and ran away! Someone must have taken it!
Her expression became the perfect picture of fury and suspicion. How dare anyone take it.
When I find out who took my..!
She stopped her train of thought as the word who was processed.
Who did take it? Who would even want to? The only person that really could have would be Hinata, but she would never do that...Would she?
No. Sakura decided.
Hinata would never do anything like that, not purposely anyway...
With a gasp of alarm and a frightened look, Sakura whirled around and headed for the bathroom,throwing off her gown and grabbing her usual outfit she had draped over the back of a chair as she did so.
Brushing her hair and teeth as well as caring for every other womanly need besides a shower, she ran from the bathroom and hopped on one foot while attempting to put on a shoe.
After a struggle that the shoes nearly won, she was out the window and speeding down the streets, not realizing that she was the only person outside.
(A/N: Short, I know. I'm doing this for fun, I'm desperately bored!
I'm a romance lover who decided to make a non romance but ended up doing this anyway. Well, now that I think about it, it's not exactly romance, it's...actually... I'm not all that sure what it is.
I'm only on the first chapter! I'll figure it out later. See you on the update! Chapter title: Guilty Hinata and the Hyuuga Raid.
If you read it, review! Opinions are a good thing! I've started this fic with a fairytale like description, the next will be the normal fic style. (Told you, I'm bored! A dangerous thing...)

Happy Halloween!
