I don't own anything.

Song by Priscilla Ahn: Dream

ENJOY

I don't know what happened, or why, it s just when I saw it, my inner self took over.

Who would have thought that my inner self is evil?

Kakashi didn t know why he was called into the Hokage s office that morning, but the way he was summoned, told him that if he didn t get his ass over there, he was going to hear it.

But that s usually how the Hokage called for him, it was normal, so he took his sweet time doing it.

Kakashi roamed the streets with his hand in his pocket, and his book in his other hand, rammed in his face. Though, he was distracted by the people around him. It was clearly obvious who was ninja and who was civilian.

Kakashi let his eyes wonder, looking over unfamiliar faces that he didn t bother to remember. He looked at the large houses and shops that varied in color, and the clouds that roamed over the sky.

He looked at the sun and saw he was already two hours late. He sighed and started walking faster from his easy pace. Soon, he leaped to a random roof top and started heading towards the tower, sighing again to himself. He was going to get yelled at again, but then smiled a little, he may get yelled at, but he knew the Hokage had soft spot for him. Though, he wouldn t try it if he was any other ninja, without a good excuse.

By the time he finished that thought, he was leaping into the Hokage'swindow, and greeted him with his ceremonial, "Yo." With his lazy hand wave and his mocking smile.

However, the third Hokage did not find his funny, and yelled at Kakashi for being late, again, with a threatening voce. Though, he would never actually mean any of the threats that he said to Kakashi if he was ever late again. He wasn t that kind of person.

After the Hokage clamed down, he spoke to Kakashi in his normal, kind voce. "Kakashi, I have a mission for you."

Kakashi nodded and sat down, his face serious, his body tense. "Yes, Hokage-sama?"

The Hokage razed an eye-brow at Kakashi actions, but when Kakashi saw his person immediately relaxed. He slumped in his chare, and gave a sigh of relief. He personally didn t want another death risking mission after the one he just had a few days before. Actually, he was still injured. But that didn t matter now.

The Hokage cleared his throat, and continued to speak. "Kakashi, I have a simple mission for you. I know that your hurt and you need the money, this will only take a little while." He said, organizing his finished paper work. He glanced up to the tall pile of unfinished paper work and sighed. He grabbed he first paper from the top and started again. "Your client should be here soon." He said while writing.

There was a knock at the door, and the Hokage looked up and smiled, "Ah, right on time. Come in, Haruno-san."

The door opened so see a tall fit man enter. He closed the door behind him and bowed deeply at the men in front of him. "Hokage-Sama." He said respectively.

Kakashi looked over his shoulder at him, he was confused, He didn t know if this man had ninja training, or was just a muscled villager. But he kept his thoughts to himself.

The Hokage smiled at him, "This is Hatake Kakashi, and he ll be helping you out today." He said, pointing to Kakashi.

The man looked at Kakashi, his eyes clearly expelled worry. But he didn t say anything. He bowed, "Thank you for helping me out today."

Kakashi smiled, "It's no problem, really."

The villager nodded and started to talk out the door, bowing again to the Hokage, and then leaving, with Kakashi fallowing after him.

Kakashi followed silently as Haruno-san lead him down the stairs, something he actually hasn't done in awhile. Stairs. There over-raided, he actually hasn't taken stairs because he hasn't really seen the need to. Stairs seem just Ugh, it s just so much cooler jumping from roof to roof.

Wow, that was random, he thought. He scratched his head, he never has these kind of thoughts before, so why now? He sighed again; he seamed to be doing that a lot, so he just followed Haruno-san blindly. And looked down to his beloved book, and giggled. He was at his favorite part, happy day!

"Mom, please!?" I pleaded to her once more. She just wouldn t give in, would she!?

"Sakura, No!" She said firmly. Her arms crossed, and her face flushed. "I don t want you to get hurt!" She yelled.

"Mom, this will keep me from getting hurt! Come on, I'm almost done with school!" I yelled right back.

One might get embarrassed yelling in public, let alone a busy door way that lead into the Hokage tower. And normally I would avoid any attention gathering thing, or action. But I was too ruffled up to care this time.

"Sakura, I want you to lead a normal life! That s why we moved here! You're not going back!" She yelled back, concern clearly evident in her eyes.

I sighed, and took a deep breath. I really didn t want it to come to this. But I really wanted to be a Ninja, I'm almost a Chuunin! How come she couldn t see that!? She doesn't even know anything about them! Ugh!

I closed my eyes, and breathed deeply. I made my face go smooth, and let my head drop, I stayed there a few seconds, and I could almost feel my mothers shoulders relax.

"There, there, Sakura, I'm sure you ll be happy about not being Ninja-."

I snapped my head up and smiled innocently. I razed my hand and took out the pen that was holding my hair in a messy bun, and dropped it on the floor, it clattered on the concrete, letting my hair free and float around my face. I put my hands in a graceful basket and started to go on my tip toes. I started doing carefree turns, trying to look as innocent as possible. I smiled brightly like this was the time of my life and that I was in a field of flowers. I spun around in circles, letting my hair twirl around with me.

I could hear my mother grown.

My smile only got larger, knowing that my mom only needed a little pushing and she would give.

People starting to stare, and some people even stopped to watch me. Oh my gosh, this is so embarrassing. But remember Sakura, it s for a good cause!

I grabbed a random person from the forming bystanders; he looked to be about my age. I grabbed is hand and pulled into the dance, I spun around a few times with his hands in mine. His face was shocked, his eyes large and his face blank.

I glanced at my mother in the corner of my eye. Her hands where covering her eyes, her face in mock terror. I grinned, one more push. That s all she needed. I would have my way, I could be a Ninja!

I slowed down our pace down, and I got off my tip toes. And lowered my hands and let them relax I started to sway back and forth, I closed my eyes, and I started to sing.

I was a little girl, alone in my little world, who dreamed of a little home for me

My mother loved that song, she would continually ask me to sing it to her me day and night. I always told her no, she knew that I didn't like to sing to people. But this, this will work, because every time I sung that song, she would start to cry. Not a sad cry, but just a cry that let all your worries away.

I played pretend between the trees, and found my house grass, spark, and leaves, and laughed in my pretty bed of green

I started to sway towards the edge of the crowd, and I let the young boy go, and whispered my thanks. I started to twirl over to my mother.

I had Dream. That I could fly from the highest swing, I had a Dream

I grabbed my mothers hands and she looked at me in horror. She knew she couldn't resist. She tried pulling my hands out of hers, but I gave her a large sweet smile that made her freeze, like a dear caught in headlights.

Long walks in the dark, threw woods grown behind the park. I asked god, who I m supposed to be. The stars smiled down at me, God answered in silent reverie, I said a prayer, and fell asleep.

I looked into my mother eyes with pleading eyes,

I had a Dream.

My mother sighed and slowly started to dance along with me, so I took that as a yes. I smiled even larger, if possible. I knew those dance lesions would come in handy one day!

That I could fly from the highest tree, I had a Dream.

I wanted to stop making a fool out of my self, but I owed it to her to sing the rest, I leaned forward and leaned my head on my mothers shoulders, since I was about the same height as her, it was comfy. She just did the same and still started to sway back and forth. While I sang the intermission that consisted of, oh , and uh s.

Now I'm old and feeling gray, I don t know whats left to say, about this life I'm, willing to leave. I lived it fill and I lived it well, as many tales I'm willing to tell, I'm ready now, I'm ready now, I'm ready now, to fly, from the highest swing, I had a Dream.

I pulled my head back and looked my mother in the eye. I finally stop making a fool out of my self, but I was too happy to make a big deal out of it. I grinned and started to hug my mother firmly, letting out a stream of, thankyothankyouthankyou. That all seamed to become one word.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know I'm awesome, come on, we have a house to move into," she muttered.

I let her go, and smiled; skipping over to the pen I dropped on the floor, and put my shoulder blade length pink hair back in its messy bun. I pulled down my long sleeved, black and white striped, shoulder cut off shirt. And then did the same for my dark blue denim shorts that ended about mid thigh.

The crowd started to disperse. Seeing that there was nothing left for them to see anymore. I walked back to my mother who was just sitting on the ground, her arms and legs crossed, pouting. I swear she s the child of the family most of the time.

I bent down to her level and smiled again. She huffed and turned her head away, grumbling something unrecognizable.

I patted her head, "Here, here momma. I'll be alright." I cooed.

She didn't look at me, "I'm way too easy to manipulate." She grumbled.

"Yes dear, you really are." My father said, from behind me. I turned around to face him, but he just ruffled my hair.

I grinned, "Ready to go Papa?" I asked, as I stood up, and helped my mom get off the ground. She brushed my hand of and got up her self. She was going to hold a good grudge for a few minutes. I just smiled, and sighed. My mom will always be one heck of a character.

My father nodded at me and gave my mother a peck on her cheek. "Are you ready, Momma?" he asked softly.

My mother just blushed and punched him lightly on the arm, "Yeah, let's go Papa." She muttered.

Father walked over to the chart and sat down at the driver's seat. With a strange man sitting next to him, Father just snapped the horses and they started to trot, with Mom and me sitting in the back.

I was just smiling and smiling. I could be a Ninja! Yes! I giggled inside my head, and started to do a small happy dance in there too.

"Sakura-chan, what where you doing out there? All that singing and dancing..." My father asked without turning around.

I blushed, "Well, it was the only way to convince mom to let me be a Ninja." I said proudly. I did what I had to.

I could see my father nod. "Good, I'm proud that my Sakura-chan wants to get stronger." He said in a mild tone.

I grinned again, and crawled up to the driver's seat where he and the strange man was sitting. I looked up him, and gaped; he just looked down at me and waved.

"Yo." He said "My names Kakashi."

I smiled again and crawled into the small space between him and my father, they both grunted and scooted over. And I stared at Kakashi-san.

"My name is Sakura." I held out my hand for him to shake and he did, "What's it like being a Ninja?" I asked happily.

He looked down at me and closed his one eye. He put a mask of extreme concentration on his face, rubbing his chin thoughtfully. I just smiled and waited.

"Well, it takes a lot of concentration and devotion." He said, but then he opened his eye and smiled again. "But it's really cool, see," he pulled out a kunai and started twirl one on his pointer finger, and middle, them barely missing one another. "You can do stuff like this." he said proudly.

I grinned, "I can do that." I said I was almost done with the academy anyways. I used to do that all the time.

Kakashi-san razed his eye brow, "Don't be to sure Sakura-san." He said.

"Bah. I can do it, see?" I turned around in my seat and started to go threw a box that held all of my Ninja stuff. I pulled out two and turned back around, smiling.

I started to twirl one on each fingers just like he. I smirked at him, "Easy."

He smirked, "Tisk, tisk. Sakura-san, you cheated. You ve had training before!" He shook his head disapprovingly.

I just grinned and put my two kunai back in the box, I looked back over to my father. "Papa, when are we going to get there?" I asked.

"Where almost there, you can see it from here, look, it's the red one right next to that laundry matt." He said, pointing towards our new house.

"Kay." I confirmed. It was nice moving to Konoha from Grass. Grass was always hot and humid. But Konoha was warm and the air was dry. It's a nice change of pace.

Soon, the cart stopped and everyone climbed out. I stood to the side while Papa got out his keys and unlocked the door, my mother and I walked in, while Kakashi-san and Papa started to grab the large heavy stuff from the cart, which mostly consisted of my mother's art stuff, and large amounts of furniture.

I looked around the first floor with my mother, but then realized it was kinda quiet. "Mom, where are all the pets?" I asked, confused.

My moms head turned around to face me, but her eyes where looking at something in her hands. "Oh, they should still be in the cart, Saku." She told me, murmuring.

I sprinted over to the cart, and dogged the random boxes that where put on the floor. Kakashi-san and Papa where carrying a large mirror into the door and I ducked underneath. And finally made it to the cart, I went towards the back and found them in there kennels. I quickly let out Margi and Bear, my two cats. I tossed them out the back of the cart. Not really worried that they would get hurt, they meowed loudly and then they both ran off. They'll come back soon enough.

I went over to the second kennel, where my dog, Eros, was whining his head off. He was a large golden retriever. The second the cage door was open, he pounced on me, and started to lick me rapidly. I laughed and pushed him away while I tried to get up. "Eros, s-stop!" I giggled.

Though, he didn't, I really did have to push him off and he yelped. I got up and brushed my self off, and jumped off the cart, with him following behind me.

I entered the door way and looked for Father and Kakashi-san, so could maybe ask them if I could help. I stopped and listened, I snapped my eyes over to the stairs and started to go up two at a time, they're up there!

I got to the top of the stairs only to be greeted with a "Watch out!" and "Get out of the way!" Before a large amount of boxes fell from the top of the stairs.

I looked up and saw them, and then my target, the solid ground. My eyes hardened, and I got into a defensive stance. I tensed my muscles and started to doge. I held to walls and ducked down rapidly as the boxes came. Never once getting one touch me, I started working my way up the stairs again, and soon a came to my goal, with all the boxes lying on the lower floor.

I looked back at them with a cold expression. "Stupid boxes." I muttered.

I turned back around to face Kakashi-san and Father. Both wide eyed, and frozen in place. I just stood there, waiting for them to get over there shock. I wasn't surprised that Kakashi was staring at me, but Papa? I told him I was almost a Chuunin! And he was surprised at that? Sure, I might have been a little slow at first. But I dogged, didn't I?!

Kakashi-san came over his shock quickly, and walked over to me, checking me over to see if I was hurt. Soon Papa came over and did the same, them both saying sorry to many times, it started to get on my nerves. I growled, it's always like this! Ugh! I'm not some little girl who cries over falling in a puddle! I don't need to be protected all the time! I'm a strong Ninja! Why can't they see this!

I ripped my arms out of there hands, and growled at them. I turned around quickly and ran down the stairs to find Mom. See if there was anything to eat.

And then most of the day went by quickly, soon, everything was unpacked and Kakashi left. Saying sorry again, I just brushed him off and went to my room and sat down at the window seat, looking over the shops at the Hokage's tower. I sighed, and I felt my muscles relax. And I ended up falling asleep there, curled up in a ball, the window wide open, letting the warm air in.

I'M SORRY! DON'T THROW STUFF AT MEEEE!!! *hides*
