DISCLAIMER: I DON'T OWN NARUTO!
CHAPTER1
Haruno Sakura, a 20 year-old woman with pink tresses that stopped at her mid waist and beautiful emerald green eyes, was waiting for her three former teammates Uchiha Sasuke, Uzumaki Naruto, and Sai. Naruto had returned with Sasuke in tow a few years before and Sai gave up on Orochimaru and stayed as a Kohona shinobi.
"Where could they be? I mean I can understand why Naruto is late but not Sasuke and Sai!" she said while sighing. She had been waiting approximately three hours for her teammates she had gotten used to Kakashi and Naruto being late but Sasuke and Sai?
She had waited for about ten more minutes of silence with a brief bird chirp or a gust of wind until she heard page turning from a certain orange book with a certain sensei atop of a tree casually reading as if nothing seemed out of the ordinary.
"Kakashi-sensei!" she exclaimed pointing an accusing finger at him. "Oh hey Sakura." He said jumping down lifting a hand up as a greeting. "There's no need to point." He said standing in front of her. ".o-oh" she said slowly bringing her finger down. They were standing there in silence with an occasional page turning. "Kakashi-sensei?" she asked
"Yes? Oh and don't call me sensei anymore because you already do know that I am not your teacher anymore." He said "H-Hai" she said "Ano where is Naruto Sasuke and Sai?" she asked with a hint of worry and concern written on her face. "At the Hokages office" he replied casually. "Then what are we doing here?" she exclaimed abruptly "Lets go!" she yelled while grabbing Kakashi by the back of his shirt and using her insane monster strength ran to the hokage office with Kakashi in tow.
At Hokage office
Sakura stopped infront of the door not wanting to burst in abruptly like she did last time. She shuddered at the thought.
Flashback
Sakura was running late for her teacher Tsunade everyone knew she had insane strength and a really bad temper. Sakura did not want to die early. She looked at her watch. Scratch that dead in about 40 seconds. She ran straight into the Hokage's office without knocking. Big mistake, Once she got inside all hell broke loose. Papers were flying everywhere the desk was smashed and the window was cracked, with a loud scream of "WHAT IN THE NAME OF SAKE GOD DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?" she screeched. When Tsunade found out her apprentice was the one who burst in she calmed down a bit. In the end Sakura went through very intense training.
Flashback End
She cautiously knocked on the door. After hearing a small 'come in' she went in with Kakashi following behind. What she saw was the strangest most bizarre thing she had ever seen. There sitting on her teachers desk were 5 cats. 5 cats! And the most bizarre thing was that they looked vaguely familiar. "Hello Sakura." Her teacher said "H-Hello." She replied still shocked. "A-Ano." She said pointing a shaking finger at the 5 nekos.
"Sakura I know this may seem shocking but…" she said getting up "this is Sasuke, Sai, Naruto, Neji and Gaara. I know your wondering why Gaara is here but the Sand village is in a war with another village and cannot afford to lose their Kazakage.
Sakura sat down trying to take this all in. When a orange and yellow neko jumped onto her lap. "N-Naruto?" she asked unsure. "Nya~ Sakura-chan~" he said purring in content.
She was shocked at first but then calmed down and began to pet him. "I see your getting to get used to this" Tsunade said "a little" Sakura said unsure "Well better get used to it now cause you are the one taking care of them!" she said happily to get the furballs out of her hands and into another. There was silence. "NANI?" She screeched.
