This is the first of my practice oneshots. I wrote it on the sixth of june in about 2 hours. I was reading this AWESOME book called Rx. (It was about a drug dealer. If u don't mind the f bomb, i'd reccomend it.) Anyway, i could actually see Sakura as a druggie. R&R (rush) ps, she didn't do this because of Sasuke or something like that. I like her character far too much to make her become a druggie for that reason. If that makes any sense at all. And by nin-dog training i mean in her (Deyna's) wolf form. She doesn't have a dog. You've been delayed long enough, on with the stupid drabble.
A flood. That's what it felt like. A flood of life coursing through her veins, reviving a tired mind. That first moment, when everything seemed to fall into place, when you could see how everything connected and how it worked. Magic. But the magic was over too soon, coming to a crushing finish, leaving her more tired than when she had started.
Haruno Sakura sighed, resting her chin on her hands, looking at the little silver tubes that lay in front of her. Each one contained a one-way ticket on a train that was set to crash. But God, the ride was well worth the bone crushing collision. She lifted her head and propped her chin on her arm, weighing the pros and cons in her ongoing mental war.
Just take it...
But that'll make it harder to stop...
Who cares? You can stop next time...
That's what you said last time, and look where it got me?
Take it.
Sakura narrowed her eyes, glaring at the little tubes. No matter how many times she tried to quit, she failed. The one and only intervention that her friends had staged had been an accident by the newest kunoichi. That had failed as well.
That wolf bitch isn't here today. C'mon, you won't get busted and no one will notice. They never do.
Take it.
"That wolf bitch" had been the only one who noticed, walking home from a training session at the Inzuka compound. Because she followed Sakura to see what she had been doing, she had been suspended from both taijutsu training with team Gai, and nin-dog training with Kiba, on account of having her arms, legs and jaw broken. Deyna had just been worried.
She cared...
Yeah, and she almost told Tsunade-sama. It was a good thing you broke that bitches jaw.
I put her in a coma...
She deserved it.
Take it.
Sakura sat up, still looking at the tubes. Tenten, Hinata and Ino had been more concerned about a girl they had only known for a month than about one of their closest friends. But, she had been worried too. Worried that their newest friend wouldn't be able to fulfill the mission she had begged Tsunade to grant, and that she wouldn't recover in time to save her own friends, the ones who she cared about.
That did it. Sakura didn't want to spend the night thinking about Deyna Shay, the former Xiaolin Dragon of lightning. Deyna Shay, the baka who's enemy kept popping up on low rank missions, causing havoc and pain to all who accompanied her. Sakura stepped forward and grabbed on of the little bullets.
Now boarding flight 101, direct to the high of your life...
She undid the cap and dumped the contents on her tongue.
Take off in three...
She sat down, waiting for the guilt to be forgotten, washed away in the whirlwind of thoughts.
Two...
Sakura, bent down, head in her hands. She always got dizzy after it took affect.
one...
Sakura felt like she had been thumped across the back, energy seeming to flow from between her shoulder blades.
Zero.
She leaned back, a goofy smile on her face. Sakura turned her head and watched the ghosts of her inhibitions float out into the window, away into the night sky. Washed away in the rush...
