A new friend

Rinnng went the bell. Seven-year-old Sakura quickly packed her school books in to he bag and left the classroom. She walked through the bustling hall and through the main doorway. There she met her friend Ino sitting on the steps. Sakura ran over, greeted Ino and sat down beside her.

" Hi Ino. So, whatcha doing here?" asked Sakura.

"Oh nothing much. Just waiting for my dad." then she pulled out a shuriken and twirled it around her finger. "Oh yeah that's right. You're going on a trip that will last all summer." said Sakura. " Gee. I wish you couldn't go."

"Yeah me too. But since I'm only seven I can't be left alone in the house for long periods of time. You're so lucky that your mom lets you stay alone."

Sakura looked down and let strands of her hair fall in front of her face. Ino instantly covered her mouth and started to say "S-sorry Sak-" she was cut short when her father came over and called her name. " Oh I guess I gotta go now," she grabbed her stuff and ran to her father who picked her up and placed her over his back. They waved good-bye to Sakura and left.

Sakura sat alone in the steps thinking about her mother. Then she heard footsteps behind her and turned around to see a young Naruto running down the stairs carrying a bottle of powder. He was laughing wildly then he saw Sakura and said " Hide me!" then he ducked and hid on the side of the stairs. Sakura looked over at him and said "Why?"

"Shhh! Be quiet or else he'll find me!" Sakura was about to ask when a voice shouted "Naruto!" and their teacher Iruka came out all in rage and scratching himself furiously. Then he ran down the stairs and saw Sakura.

"Oh hey there Sakura. Shouldn't you be going home?"

"I am about to just right now." She stood up and cocked her head in Naruto's direction. Iruka got the message and started to make footsteps. "Well if you see Naruto tell him he in for some ramen later today." Then the little boy jumped out and screamed "Ramen!? When do you want-" he was plucked from the ground by Iruka. "You're coming with me. You have detention now for your prank on a teacher." Then he turned and went in the classroom with Naruto squirming under his arms.

Sakura on the other hand went to the park. It held a beautiful view of the whole park and the best part was the bridge. If you sat right by the bridge or anywhere near it you would hear the water as it rushes under the bridge.

Sakura sat under her favorite tree and soon she slowly dozed off to sleep.
