Chapter 1: Apples

Sakura sat, in the shade of the tree. Eating an apple like she does every day at 2:03 pm on the dot. Sitting in her favorite field to enjoy her afternoon snack. But something was strange this day. She couldn't quite put her finger on it, but she felt she wasn't alone. The feeling of a thousand piercing eyes came over her, sending a chill down her spine.

"Hello?" she called out, not expecting any answer.

"Hello!" came a muffled voice. Suddenly, the dirt in front of Sakura erupted, revealing Hinata.

"Hinata, what are you doing underground?" asked Sakura.

"Silly, I always dig. Then I saw you sitting here and- SQUIRREL!" Hinata's gaze shifted to a completely new direction, one unlike any mortal has seen before. This nearly broke Sakura's mind, but then Hinata returned to normal.

"But anyway, all this digging has made me mighty hungry. I'd love a bite of your apple, Sakura!"

Sakura looked at the apple half in her hand for a second. Could she part with such a beautiful object like this? Could she sacrifice everything she loved to help her friend? She thought about it some more, and even more. No Matter how many times she thought, her mind wouldn't let her hand over the apple piece.

"Sakura, are you okay?" asked Sakura out loud to herself.

"Sakura, are you okay? You haven't answered my question yet," said Hinata, drooling on the apple in Sakura's hand.

Sakura thought one last thought. "No," she said, shoving the entire apple half into her mouth. "I canfffth yeth you haff thish pieshe."

Hinata's face became orange, as it does when she turns angry. "WHY NOT?! WHAT ABOUT LAST WEEK WHEN I LET YOU ON MY SWING SET?!"

"Ith's too delishoush, Showerahs. But you can haff thish whole ahpeal all by yourselth." Sakura reached into her back pocket and pulled out another apple, presenting it to Hinata. Hinata returned to her normal color, a color unknown to humankind.

A tear came to Hinata's eye. As in tearing a piece of paper. Her eye was bleeding, but she didn't care. That apple looked delicious and would make her bones grow. "This is ... the nicest thing anyone's ever done for me, Sakura,"

Hinata said, holding back from crying as her eye kept tearing wider and wider.

"It's the least I could do, Hinata. You helped me overcome my fear of apples."

Sakura's razor sharp tongue extended from her mouth to peel the skin off the apple. Sakura handed the now peeled apple to Hinata, whose face was tore open, almost entirely a gaping wound.

They sat under the tree and enjoyed their apples together. The end.

Chapter 2: A New Promotion

After finishing the apples, Hinata's head was completely gone. She said her goodbye and tunneled back underground, leaving Sakura behind under her tree.

Sakura sat under the tree, feeling alone at last to enjoy her 2:08 pm orange.

Sakura took a bite, noticing a large amount of blood to be drawn from the orange. Suddenly the orange transformed into Ino, bleeding out of her arm.

"INO!" screamed Sakura in anger, weilding her razor-sharp tongue as a sword.

"SAKURA!" screamed Ino in anger, taking off her left bitten arm and welding it. Welding it to a steel cube that appeared as Ino transformed from an orange.

"INOW!" screamed Sakura in anger, weidling her tongue as a sword still.

"SAKURA!" screamed Ino in anger, still welding her arm to the cube.

"IKNOW!" screamed Sakura in anger, weidling her tongue as a sword still.

"SAKURA!" screamed Ino in anger, who was now finished welding. "I have come for my revenge!"

"YOUR revenge? What about MY revenge?" asked Sakura, who accidentally bit her tongue off while talking. "If you apologize to my horse, I'll just forgive you without hurting you!"

"Never! Not until you apologize for stealing my horse!" yelled Ino, head sinking into her chest.

"Iknoa. I told you I was just borrowing the horse! I gave you a very specific time I would give it back! 'The end of the world'!" Sakura was so angry that she gripped her sword tongue too hard and had it cut her hand. She didn't care, she just wanted to win the arguement.

Ino's head had sunk low enough that it snapped her neck, killing her instantly. Her body was still standing.

"Ikanoa, you can't pull that 'But the end of the world is too far away' card on me! It wont work!" The tongue sword had cut through her hand completely.

Where Ino's head once was was no longer there. Her head had sunken so far down that her neck was just a hole into her body.

"Icanoa, are you- Icaboa, stop doing that! Don't give me those puppy dog eyes right before our epic fight!"

The arm cube dragged itself on top of Ino's body and tried burying itself arm first into the neck hole.

"Sigh ... you know I can't stay mad at you when you do that, Icabod. Come here and enjoy this orange with me.

"Okay!" the steel cube said gleefully, taking on the personality of Ino and having all her memories while also replacing her head.

The two spent the next 5 hours under that shady tree, enjoying the one orange Sakura brought.

"Icabody, I guess I should tell you ..." started Sakura, who was now a cat.

"Yes, Sakura?" asked Ino, sucking on an orange peel.

"Icaybody, I forgive you for killing my horse."

"Oh, Sakura, I forgive you for stealing my horse," said Ino.

Sakura laid down on Ino's lap and curled up, dozing off into a sleep.

The end.
