Summary:It's Daylight's Savings, and the clock is pushed back one hour. You get another chance to turn something right. It's been a tradition for the past three years for the four kuniochi to relive that hour, redoing everthing, and changing they're mistakes. People have become accustomed to it and let them be, but this year they make more then one mistake that they must fix before the hour is up and the tradition broken. But if they don't fix their mistakes, will the tradition mean as much as it did?

Chapter One:
Live the Hour
One minute before the clock struck eleven. One minute until I meet Ino, Tenten, and Hinata.
Daylight savings had arrived and we had one hour to run wild or do something stupid and outrageous. And then relive that hour fixing every mistake we made. Every little arguement. Last year, we had almost run out of time when Tenten realized that she had liked Lee two minutes before midnight. He had asked her out during our time and she decline. So we ended up running up and down the streets trying to find Lee. When the clocks all over town chimed midnight we had believed the tradition had been broken. So we sulked back to where Tenten stood only to find Lee hugging her tightly tears of joy running down her face.
"...Only five seconds left...four...three...two...one...time to live the hour to its fullest," I began down the stairs my knee length jacket wrapped tightly around my body, making sure none of my out-fit was seen. At least not until I met up with the girls.I fidgeted slightly with the collar of my jacket as I walked to our meeting spot near the gate. I let my eyes scan the area looking for the three girls. I spotted them and Tenten waved me over.

I spotted them and Tenten waved me over."Hey," I said holding my hand up in greeting. They nodded a greeting.
"So we ready?" Ino asked. Silence was the answer.
"I have a bad feeling about this year..." Tenten confessed, Hinata nodded in agreement.
"Tenten's right, something doesn't seem right," Hinata added her input softly.
"You're going to break the tradition because of a bad feeling?" Ino exclaimed.
"It's not really a tradition, this is only the fourth year," Tenten stated crossing her arms. I sighed and began unbuttoning my jacket, it was too warm for a winter knee length jacket.I shrugged the jacket off and slung it over my shoulder.
"There is no way in hell we breaking this, I didn't come out here in public, in this, just to go home and do nothing," I said gesturing to my orange Victoria's Secret lace babydoll. The other three looked toward me and their eyes widened slightly.
"Damn! Someone plans on getting some tonight!" Ino teased, grinning.
"So...what's the occasion?" Tenten asked smirking.
"New club, pajamas only. Heard some Jounins talking about it and I thought I'd check it out," I replied shrugging, folding my arms over my chest in modesty.
"Sounds fun," Ino remarked.
"Well, let's get this part over with, before anyone sees us," Tenten said shooting a glance in my way.
"Hey, it wasn't me who came up with the vow," I raised my hands in defense, glaring at Ino.
"Enough bitching, we've been standing her for the past ten minutes wasting our time," Ino cried in exasperation, "Tenten, start the vow."
Tenten sighed, but obliged, "We come together as time is relived,"
"Taking risks and broadening our horizens, while living," Hinata continued.
"Living our mistakes until the clock chimes twelve," Ino said.
"Reliving the hour, without breaking our tradition," I stated rolling my eyes.
"Changing what we've done, for the better," we muttered in unison.
"Good luck, ladies," Ino began walking off and was soon out of sight.
"So what's on your agenda?" I asked the two remaining girls.
"Date with Lee," Tenten grinned.
"I'm...going to tell Naruto...how I feel," Hinata replied quietly.
"That's great!" Tenten exclaimed.
"Good luck, I know you can do it!" I said entusiastically, Hinata merely nodded and blushed.
"Go get your man, Hinata!" Tenten said pushing Hinata in the direction of the ramen stand. Hinata hesitantly began to walk away. Leaving Tenten and me.
"Hey, Sakura, before you go...I have a question..." Tenten stated.
"Okay, shoot," I said.
"How do you plan to get out of Konoha, with the place crawling with ninjas?"
"Tenten, it's Friday, the pub is open. And what chuunin on patrol would stop a jounin, wearing this?"
"Good point...see ya' at twelve!" Tenten said speeding off to meet Lee. I shook my head and sigh.
'Let's go clubbin'!' I thought before making my way to the gate as fast as I could without using chakra to speed up my walking in my heels.
Done with chapter one!
I really haven't been focusing on one fic...I feel creative!
