Summary: Because of her older brother, Kiku, Sakura, the prankster, enrolled studying in a co-ed boarding school… as a boy!
This is a series of short one-shots/drabbles in a somewhat chronological order (unless I say otherwise), showing her life (of sorts), starting from what brought her to the school to her life in the school. MultiSaku SakuHarem… yeah
Disclaimer: I never want to own Naruto. It's too much work. And besides, isn't this a FANfiction site? If I owned everything in this story, I'd put it in Fictionpress. Geez.
Parings mentioned: No romantic ones. Yet. But there's family pairings of Sakura and her older brother, Kiku. Yes, it's a weird name.
Warnings: None. Except for OCs. I always have them as I like to portray characters that are not my own in a positive manner. And I don't want a Naruto character to be Sakura's older brother 'coz they'll all like her romantically! Buahaha!
Every story starts with a brief introduction to the main character and plot. Unless, of course, the reader already knows everything… If that is the case, readers can just skip the introduction part.
Before the story starts, there are a few things you need to know about me.
Number one. My name is Haruno Sakura. I am sixteen this year and am currently studying in a normal high school with my older (by two years), extremely protective, brother, Haruno Kiku.
Also, I am rather smart for my age. Don't get me wrong. I'm not boasting or anything… kind of… maybe…
But that's not the point. I have skipped a year due to my awesomeness. But that does not make me academically closer to my brother. He skipped a year as well.
Yes, we are both geniuses.
That led me to wonder if our parents did some weird experimentations on us.
"Haruno-kun. Please write your answer to question 13(b) on the board, please," the teacher said.
The petite, pink-haired girl fluidly stood up from her seat. All eyes were on her as she reached into her pencil case pulled out a black marker before gracefully walked down the aisle to the board.
She uncapped her marker and everybody's eyes were fixed on her. There wasn't a move she made that didn't escape the scrutiny of the class. A gasp escaped her lips as the marker slipped out of her hand. Everybody was immediately on guard.
Number two.
I am…
A Prankster.
A smirk graced the face of the rosette as she closed her eyes and took a deep breath before covering her nose.
The marker came into contact with the ground and immediately, black smoke filled the class. It came hand in hand with a rotten stench that knocked a few of the students out.
The melodic laughter of a certain girl whose name starts with the letter 'S' could be heard throughout the school.
Upon hearing that sound, Haruno Kiku sighed and slumped in his seat.
"What the hell did she do this time?" he muttered to himself.
When life give you lemons… make lemonade and drink it! If you can. It'll be very sour without sugar.
"Haruno Sakura!" Kiku shouted when he heard the front door of the apartment he was currently residing in open.
"Spare me the lecture," said girl's voice interrupted whatever long and naggy speech he had prepared for her. "I was already chewed out by the principal. Please don't start on me too."
A sigh was heard.
"Why do you always do this?" Kiku groaned. Sakura came into view and shrugged.
"I'm bored."
"If you're so bored with everyday life, why don't you do something daring?" he challenged unthinkingly, "Dress up as a boy in a boarding school and start a new life. I dare you."
Blink. Blink. Smirk.
A horrified look spread across Kiku's face as he realized what he had done. "No, wait! I didn't mean it!"
Too late.
Number three. I never back down from dares.
Ever.
"Are you certain you want to go through this? I really, really, really didn't mean the dare! I swear!" Kiku all but cried to his sister one week after the fateful words were uttered from his mouth. Sakura glanced at her older brother and gave him an impish grin. Her once long, silky, pink hair was cut short to just above her shoulders. It was twisted into a short ponytail. She could pass of, at the most, a girly boy.
"Of course I am, aniki," she grinned, "I am really going to go through this. I've already submit my files to another school. A boarding school, just like you said. I think it's called… Shinobu Gakuen, if I'm not wrong."
"Shinobu Gakuen…" Kiku muttered, deep in thought. His eyes then lit up. "Okay then!" he said cheerfully. Maybe just a little too cheerfully. Sakura ought to have been wary. Suspicious. But, being the naïve little girl she was, she practically didn't pick up anything at all.
There was a reason why although she was a Prankster, she wasn't a Master Prankster. She was far too naïve for that profession.
If you find that everything is under control, it is usually a sign that you are going far too slow. Unless you think that it's under control but in reality, it isn't…
Little did poor Sakura know that by accepting the dare and, in turn, transferring into a new school as a boy, would bring about grave consequences.
Very grave indeed.
Let's spare a moment of silence for the poor girl.
…
-Blows raspberry-
What? She brought it onto herself. And besides, without her, there would be no story!
Random note: Kiku means Chrysanthemum
