So this is my little story.. I know that some characters may be little too OOC.
Disclaimer: I DO NOT own Naruto. But i would love to!
I devote this chapter to Dragon Mistress of the Heavens, because she writes so good stories.
Prince charming on his white horse. …or not?
1. Don't ever call me a bitch
She is a girl with a name. If you would ask her what her name is, she would tell it is Sakura. 3 days ago, she moved to Konoha. Today starts Sakura her 10th year at new school - Konoha high.
Corridors were full of teachers and students who occasionally glanced at the pink-headed girl.
'Damn the hair' she swore in her mind. 'In situations like this, I would love to have usual hair not my bubble-gum pink.' She felt safer with her black high-topped boots on. Sakura pulled her red cardigans cowl over head and strode forward.
'Nothing is going to stop me on my way to the class! … Or maybe something is.' Ahead in the corridor lied a beautiful, purple-headed girl. Just now, a boy dressed in black pushed her so she had fell with all her books onto the floor. Sakura anger exploded when she saw that. No one, I tell you, no one pushes a girl like her and gets away with it on my watch.
She ran next to the girl and yelled after the redhead.
''Hey, jerk! You come right back here and apologize in front of her.'' He stopped and looked at her, then turned around and started walking again.
'Oh no you didn't! Please tell me he just did not walk away from me! Hell you won't!'
''Stop, you asshole!''
''And if I don't?'' he shot back over his shoulder, still not stopping.
'He's getting on my nerves! HARD!'' Almost all students were now watching the dialog between two of them. Sakura was clenching her hand so she won't run and punch him in his good-for-nothing-face.
''Go ahead and find out!'' Her voice dripped with venom. Only ones who didn't flinch were girl and I'm-Mr.-so-cool-and-I-can-do-whatever-I want. Her message must get across of him, because he stopped and turned over. Hands crossed and bore draining all over his face.
''Hn. Bitch.'' Nobody moved a muscle. They feared both of them.
'I must restrain my anger... Restrain anger. Rest... Ang... Oh go to hell!'
''DO NOT EVER CALL ME A BITCH!'' Sakura yelled just before she punched him in the face. He fell backwards and impacted with the floor.
'SHIT! I'm going to get in trouble. Heck, I'm in trouble already. PTH! When have I cared?' Sakura turned her back to bleeding boy and walked to the girl who still lied on the ground. She helped her up and started to pick up all the books that fell on the ground before. Still nobody had moved a millimeter. All but Sakura who was picking up the books and the boy who is attempting to get up.
''I'm H-h-hinata,'' said the girl who stood behind her. She stuttered, blushed and her voice was very mild. Our pink haired girl grinned at her and handed her books back. Already walking, she waved behind her back.
''I'm Sakura,'' she said with a cheerful voice.
''Nice to meet you!'' She walked towards her homeroom, meantime passing still bleeding boy. She smirked evilly at him and continued her walk.

'Class 107. Class 107. Class 107. Ah here it is!'Sakura stepped into and walked to the teacher who read some perverted book. He had gray hair and an eye-clap with a mask. (A/N: Guess who? XD)
'I'm so lucky!'Rolling eyes, she knocked onto the table to get that guys attention and took a paper from her pocket. Sakura gave it to the teacher, who read it and nod. She remembered exactly what she wrote on it. I'm new student Sakura Haruno. Do not mention my last name until I say it's safe. No introduction.
Teacher stood up and all students stopped talking.
''We have a new student. Her name is Sakura and please be nice to her.'' She heard how he mumbled under his breath something like: ''or we are all in big mess.''
Sakura laughed silently and whispered back. ''If you don't do anything to me I don't do anything to you. All you have to do is let me be myself. … Now where do I sit?'' She said the last sentence loud so she doesn't raise suspicions. Sakura looked around and saw about 5 students: guy, who was sleeping on his desk and, guy with a bowl cut and thick brows, guy with white eyes, come to think, they seemed like Hinatas but whiter, girl with two buns and who was watching the white-eye and girl who had 4 pigtails and listened to her iPod.
''Go sit next to the blond girl who listens music. And you can call me Kakashi-sensei. '' You nodded and sat down at your desk. It was next to the window and second last. You put your black backpack net to the desk and took out a notebook, ball pen and her own red iPod. Sakura sketched the girl who sat beside her. She was leaning back on her chair and looking up at the sealing.
''Lost in the darkness, hoping for a sign
Instead there is only silence,
Can't you hear my screams...?
Never stop hoping,
Need to know where you are
But one thing is for sure,
You're always in my heart.
I'll find you somewhere
I'll keep on trying until my dying day
I just need to know whatever has happened;
The Truth will free my soul.
Lost in the darkness, try to find your way home
I want to embrace you and never let you go
Almost hope you're in heaven so no one can hurt your soul...
Living in agony 'cause I just do not know
Where you are
I'll find you somewhere
I'll keep on trying until my dying day
I just need to know whatever has happened,
The Truth will free my soul.
Wherever you are, I won't stop searching.
Whatever it takes, I need to know.
I'll find you somewhere
I'll keep on trying until my dying day
I just need to know whatever has happened,
The Truth will free my soul.''
Sakura lifted her head up from the sketch and found every single people in the class staring at her.
'Shit! I sang out loud again!' Almost all seats were taken, only one, behind her was vacant. Moreover, that person stood next to the door, a smirk plastered on his face.
'I so HATE him,'she growled in her head. Sakura put away her iPod and waited for distaste but all she got were smiles, smirks and shouts of joy.
''Ok, ok! Calm down everybody!'' jelled Kakashi over his pervy book.
''Gaara go to your seat!''
'So his name is Gaara. … OH SHIT! He sits behind me... NOOOO!'When he came closer, then Sakura saw few red spots around his nose.
'Too bad that he didn't get more hurt. But that has to do for now.'Girl next to Sakura slipped her a piece of paper.
Hey! I'm Temari. Cool singing! You have to sing in The Fire. It's a rock and metal club/cafe and my two brothers work in there, so I think you could perform. We go there every Friday with girls. Do you want to come?
Hey! Friday is tomorrow right. I think I could come. What do your brothers do in the club? Who are the girls?
Jep! Tomorrow. That's great! Kankuro is a bartender and Gaara is a DJ. We have our little group of girls. In the group are Tenten (Girl with two brown buns), Hinata (Girl with long purple hair and lavender eyes) and me (Crazy chick with 4 pigtails).
That's cool! I will… Did you write Gaara? Sakura looked at Temari with pleading eyes and then threw herself on to the desk.
'Why? Why? Why? I hate my life!'
So you two have met already! What did he do to you? Temari looked angry, but not at Sakura.
It was rather the other way… I… punched him in the face; because he pushed Hinata and she fall. Moreover, Gaara didn't apologize so I punched. Sakura made her angel face towards Temari and hoped the best.
''YOU PUNCHED GAARA?'' Temari jelled all over the class. Again, Sakura found all students looking at her. Few ones whispered, some ones where surprised, and one panged his head at the desk. Now all class was looking at Gaara, but they got a death glare and looked away quickly. All of them except Sakura, Temari and one other guy with plastic kitty ears on his head.
'He must be Temaris other brother… Weird family.'
Soon all calmed down and class was again quiet. Sakura decided to write Temari a note.
Sorry, about Gaara! You ARE his sister after all. It's just that he was mean to Hinata, and I don't like such behavior.
No, no! It's not like that! He deserved it. Case is like this. No one has ever touched Gaara. He is the best fighter in school. He can defend himself perfectly. So there are two possibilities, that you are one cool fighter-chick or he didn't want to defend himself.

'Luuuunch! Need food!' Sakura basically ran into the cafeteria after fourth period. After getting her food, she sat down into a big table surrounded by all her new friends.
Temari is very cocky and cheerful, she isn't the best student in class, but is sporty.
Hinata is shy and she stutters, but if she wants to, then she can be really fun and confident.
Tenten is crazy. She has her pocket knife along with her everywhere and she knows martial arts.
Naruto is a boy with spiky blond hair and grin on his face. He eats a lot ramen and talks about it all the time. He is cheerful, hyper and sometimes REALLY annoying.
Sasuke is a boy with raven hair, which looks like a chicken's ass. He is Narutos best friend and exact opposite. He is quiet and serious. Can be a total jerk.
Neji has long brown hair and eyes just like Hinatas. They are cousins, but don't get along well. Knows martial arts like Tenten and they train together. He is quiet and serious like Sasuke, but he doesn't look so depressed.
Shikamaru is a total lazy ass. He can't stay awake more than 30 minutes, or like this it seems. Likes to watch clouds and play shogi. His hair looks like a pineapple and they're brown.
Chiji is best friend of Shikamaru. He has spiky brown hair that is longer than Narutos He eats all the time and is quite chubby. Don't call him fatty, because that makes him angry, and angry Choji is scary.
Lee has a weird bowl cut black hair and is little too diligent. He is a best friend with Neji and is also good in martial arts.
Kankuro is a pervert. He has flirted with Sakura almost 5 times now. Gaara has all times threatened to kill him if he doesn't stop, so he hasn't made any big moves. He has spiky brown hair that is as short as Narutos.
And Gaara… His short red hair and sea-green eyes, which are bordered with thick eyeliner. His crazy love kanji tattoo on his foreheads left side. His muscled arms and chest, which are shown under the black t-shirt. His strong legs wrapped in torn black jeans. His severally pierced ears. And just now he smirked, because Sakura stared at him. Too long!
'Shit! This is not good. He isn't that good looking! And besides he's jerk! Big one.' She ate her spaghetti to get her thought away from Gaara. Unfortunately she didn't success in it.
'He's only sexy. Nothing else. Right?'
Sakura woke up from her thoughts to hear someone call her name. It was Temari who called her back to earth.
''What is it?'' Sakura asked dully.
''What are your next classes?''
''Math and music.''
''I know that we all have music together, but who has math?'' said Temari.
''Hn.'' You can guess three times who Sakura got. (A/N: No it isn't Sasuke! Shoo! I don't like fangirls.)
''World hates me, '' announced Sakura.
''Everyone hate you,'' spat Gaara angrily. Sakura's eyes widened and glazed over.
'Everyone hates me… Everyone hates me… Everyone hates me… Everyone hates me… Everyone hates me… Everyone hates me… Everyone hates me… Everyone hates me… THEY HATE ME!'
Sakura looked at the table, her shoulder-length hair covering her eyes. Her hands were on the table clenched into fists. Temari was only one who saw one salty tear slide down on Sakura's cheek before she swept it away. Sakura stood up, picked up her bag and just walked away. At the cafeteria doors Sakura started to run as fast as she can. She didn't know where she's going, she just ran. She didn't hear that someone followed her. For that moment she was crying nonstop.
She raced trough another door and felt a sudden gush of wind. Looking up Sakura observed where she is. She had run all the way onto the school roof. At the top of 3 floored building she felt like on top of the world, because school was one of the tallest buildings in Konoha. Sakura wept her eyes clean from tears and looked around in awe. She could see almost every building. All houses, few mansions, Konohas main street and all little parks.
''Are you all right?'' came soft voice behind Sakura.
. She spun around so quickly that she almost fell of the roof but that someone grabbed her hand. Looking up Sakura saw familiar four blonde pigtails, what belonged to Temari. She let go of Sakuras hand and looked at the girl with worried expression.
''Yea! I'm right. I just remembered something sad.''
''Want to talk?'' Sakura sat down next to some chimney and looked at the other girl.
'Should I tell her? I have to tell someone or it will just kill me! Oh what the heck.'
''Ok! I will tell you, but you must keep some things to yourself.'' Temari sat next to Sakura and nodded.
''Some things I'll tell you may cost our lives. My father didn't want any kids, he was a busy man. Our family company took all his time. And he kind of hated kids. Then mom got pregnant and I was borne. But he hated even his own child. He told me that I have to be best, in everything. I thought that father just wanted me to have a good life but it wasn't that. He just wanted me as his trophy, with who he could show off in front of his friends. When I wasn't best he hit me. Someday he beat me even so hard that I couldn't move. When I asked mother why father hates me she said one of the cruelest things in my life. She said that father hated me because I'm not good enough and that it's not only him. She said those three words that I will hate to the end of my life. ''Everyone hates you!'' I was twelve when she told that. I didn't have any friends, because of this. I was afraid of them. I was afraid that they will hate me. At the age of 14 I started to study martial arts so I could defend myself from my father and all other kids. I understood that kids don't hate me, but I was still afraid.'' She took one deep breath and looked at Temari. She nodded her to continue.
''This summer was the first time that I really stood up on my father. I said him that I will move to another city and start over. And that he will pay for all of the things. New house, my clothes and all other stuff. And we had one more conditions… If he would die then I will inherit all the company. If he doesn't, I'll publish all the secrets of our company and I will tell the police what he did to me. I have witnesses and evidence to put him to jail for very long time. And I would do it if I need to.'' Sakura sighted and looked to the ground. She liked that Temari didn't comfort her or talked any words. Just her presence was enough.
''Now I should tell you who I really am.'' Temari looked at Sakura horrified.
''Aren't you Sakura then?'' she asked carefully. Sakura laugh and smiled at her friend.
'Yes! She is my friend and she won't hate me.'
''Oh yes I am. But you don't know my last name. My name is Sakura Haruno, heiress of world famous Haruno company.'' Sakura smirked at Temari's expression. It was a mix of shock, joy and disbelief.
''Ok! I have talked enough. I think that we missed math, but that's ok. I can talk to the teacher and we don't get in any trouble.'' Sakura grinned foxily and stood up. Temari smiled her back and stood up too.
''Sweet! I think that this school year is going to be fun,'' said Temari as two girls walked down the stairs to the math class.
Please review. Even if you just read it and are going to read another chapter. It would mean a lot to me. Thanks!
