Ino stared at her child with joy as she went on out to her car, leaving her and her husband alone with each other for another day as she had her crazy fun.

Her husband walked up from behind her and put his hand on her shoulder before leaning in and kissing her. "Remember when we used to be like that at that age?" Ino nodded and laughed, "Our friends were crazy and we had a lot of misadventures that ended up getting us to this place now."

The rest of the people in the house came up to them too; Sasuke had a smirk on his face, "How we met was the crazy part Suigetsu and Ino"

Ino turned red "Yeah, that was certainly an interesting time, I remember it just like this…."

Ino grappled with Sakura on the streets till they both chased each other into an alleyway. Sakura threw the first punch and hit Ino in the gut, knocking the breath out of her, Ino struggled to stand up. "You stupid bitch, why do you always have to get in my way? I was here first, stay away from me and my business!" She shouted at the top of her lungs and sent a punch flying towards Sakura and connected with Sakura's face.

Sakura slammed into the wall behind them and the blonde panted in the cold, fixing her purple scarf and black coat while the pink haired female was down. Ino stood straight over her, staring hard at her with a grim look on her face, "I can't believe that I once called you my friend, you're nothing but annoying forehead!"

She then turned and started to walk away when a trash can lid was thrown at her back, hitting her hard "What the hell?!" "You thought we were done Ino-pig? You should check better to see when someone is really down for the count!"

Sakura grabbed the empty trash can and started to lift it when Ino grabbed the lid as a shield, "Shannaro!" Ino lifted the lid when the trash can was coming at her and warded it off while the shield became messed up from the impact. Suddenly they heard sirens and Ino dropped the lid and Sakura and her rushed to a hiding spot.

Sakura glared at Ino "This isn't over Ino" "You've got that right Sakura, these are my streets, I sell here, not you!" Their forehead touched as they glared at each other with looks that would kill anyone that would see them before they turned away from each other with a "HMMPH!"

"Well I didn't want to sell on your crummy street anyway!" Sakura then started to cry and snow started to fall "Sakura…" Ino looked at her sympathetically "Then why were you here anyway you fool?" Sakura shook her head and ran off; disappearing quickly and she started to walk away too.

She ran to her meeting spot, she had a new buyer today and needed to be there so as not to anger them. Everything ridded on her work, without it she would be at a loss money wise and be living out on the streets that Sakura and her selled on. She would have no room to go back to, and wouldn't be going to school either; she needed that since it was what was going to get her to stop being a dealer.

She had no parents and no siblings either, she relied on Sakura who was just like her being around since they paid for a single place together with their money.

They had recently had a fallout too, it was over Sasuke and Sakura had taken it too far during their fight last week. She had almost told Sasuke about what Ino did for a living since she had no family. She gritted her teeth and finally came to the meeting spot and stood there, waiting for whomever it was that was coming.

A half an hour passed and she was really starting to get cold even with her really thick clothes meant to keep out the cold. She was about to give up on this one when suddenly a trio of girls were walking towards her. They were begging for her to crack a joke regarding their hair since it was a blonde, a redhead and a black haired girl. She noted that the blonde and dark haired females were considerably taller than the redhead.

"I thought it was only one for the night?" the redhead then nervously laughed while scratching the back of her head "Sorry, I didn't know my way around and asked my two friends, they said that this was the rumored hot spot."

Her eyes widened and she gasped, it seemed that she would have to change spots again if this was getting too far known so as to keep herself under the radar and stay safe, away from the cops notice.
She looked at her nervously and reached into her pocket "How much do you want?"

"The whole bag..." the redhead looked at her with a smirk before pulling out glasses and putting them on, they made her look really dorky, she looked better without them. She watched her buyer pull out a giant wad of cash and count it, "Keep the change, you look like you need it if you're in this game."

Ino pulled out the whole bag of the pills she was asked for ahead of time and looked at her with worry "Are you sure you're going to be okay with that amount?" The redhead nodded "Yes, this usually lasts me around a month or two, and I have these two to watch over me, they keep me in check and have saved my life many times" The redhead looked so self-assured by this and so at home with the two girls behind her who had been silent the whole time. "Oh, and consider me a valued customer now, my name is Karin Uzumaki, remember that name for you will hear from me again" She stared into her red eyes that matched her hair and couldn't help but feel assured on her word when suddenly they turned and left too.

Everyone seemed to leave apparently with no real proper goodbye. It made her feel even more alone than she already was… She pulled out all of her drugs for a double check to make sure that everything was still there and noticed that there was something missing and she started to freak out. She then remembered that it came out during her fight with Sakura and she ran back to where the fight happened.

She was out of breath when she ended up getting there and got on her hands and knees, looking around for her bag of her highest paying drug. All the others were like dirt compared to it, she really had to find it or she would be eternally screwed.

She saw the corner of a small bag peeking out from the layer of snow that was beginning to coat everything and grabbed it with the speed of a striking snake. She stood up and was dusting herself off when suddenly someone was on top of her and she was back on the ground again, she got a face full of snow and groaned.

The next thing she knew and there was something cold and sharp against her skin and she froze "Yo! Purple lady, what do you think you're doing here on my streets at night?" The male voice said, a voice that would have made her melt because of how hot it sounded if it weren't for the current situation that she was in. "I was just getting something really valuable of mine back was all, I'm sorry, I didn't know anyone ran these streets at night."

Her body still remained unmoving since the guy had landed on top of her; she would probably wake up with bruised in the morning… She then felt his warm breath on her neck and she blushed "Nobody but drug dealers and gangs come in the alleyways. So tell me purple lady, why on earth are you here? You aren't part of an rival gang trying to scope my area out are you? If you are I can't let you go without showing them what happens when they do that…"

He laughed "So you better hope that that pretty little blonde head of yours that you aren't one of them" Her blood turned cold, "I-I'm not! I've never been a part of a gang, I'm just a dealer I swear!" she shivered and showed off the bag she was holding in her hand.

She felt whatever was against her neck disappear and with that she sighed in relief, though he was still sitting on top of her.

"A seller huh? Usually you guys are gone by the time I come out with my gang, well except for this annoying pink haired female, she liked to stay out late, annoys the hell out of Ameyuri like no other." "Sakura? I never knew she was going around at night…Hey! Are you going to get off of me anytime soon?" She huffed and heard him laugh before the weight was off of her and she felt a hand reach out and grab her hand, pulling her up. It was his hand it seemed and she looked up at him, not getting much insight at first since it was so dark and hard to make out definition and details. He was tall and had this lankish look to him, he had a blue coat on and his eyes were purple and his hair was white like the snow and went past his face. He was carrying a rather thick sword that was almost as big as he was.
