A Twist In Time
I woke up and something felt different. I sat up and looked around my room.
' This is my room I had when I was 12.' I thought.
I sighed. If it weren't for my self control I would have screamed by now.
I got up and looked at the calender. I saw today was the day I become a genin.
I decided to get dressed. I walked to my closet and saw nothing but red.
I frowned in discust.
' I had horrible taste in clothing when I was 12. I can't believe I wore that!' I thought.
' Yeah.' Ine, my demon, said in dissatisfaction.
' I'm definatly going shopping before school.'
' Will you have time?'
' Yeah, school doesn't start 'till 8 and it's 6.'
' Oh. Well you had better cover your stomach. It's a little big.'
' What?'
I looked down and nearly screamed.
' Why the hell did my pregnancy follow me?!'
' I don't know.'
I sighed.
' I'll just put a genjutsu on it.'
I did some hand signs and my stomach was flat again.
I took one of my dresses grudgingly and put it on. I noticed it was a little tighter in the chest area than when I really was 12. I got my hitai-ate and tied it around my waist.
' Time to go shopping!'
I ran out and went to the nearest clothes store.
I came out 30 minutes later in a black tank top that stopped above my belly button, a black skirt that went to mid-thigh with slits on the sides, fishnets, a black trench coat, some black gloves, and some black heels like the ones I had when I was 14.
' I'm gonna go get my belly button pierced.'
I walked into a peircings shop and came out 10 minutes later with my belly button pierced, which was a dangling silver dagger.
' I'm gonna go get a tattoo, too.'
I went to a tattoo parlor and came out 30 minutes later with the japanese kanji for love on my right arm, below my shoulder, which was covered by my trench coat.
' I'm gonna cut my hair too.'
I walked into a hair salon and walked out 30 minutes later with my hair slightly above my shoulders and black highlights.
I looked at the clock and saw it was 7:50. I sighed.
' Time for school.'
I was at school 15 minutes later. I was walking down the hall and I wasn't paying attention to where I was going. I bumped into somebody. I fell and looked up. I saw I bumped into Kakashi.
" Are you okay?" He asked as he helped me up. He didn't notice I went inside his weapons pouch and took his Icha Icha Paradise book. I put it in my own weapons pouch before he could see.
" Yeah. I'm okay." I said.
" What's your name?" He asked curiously.
" Haruka." I lied smoothly.
" Hmm. Is that so?"
" Yep! You're Hatake Kakashi a Jonin that's capable of taking on a genin team right?" I asked.
" Yes. How did you know that?" He asked.
" Know your enemies, basic information gathering. You're a common topic among the ladies." I said offhandedly.
" Oh really?" He giggled.
" Um, I have to go. I'm late for class." I said, slowly backing away.
" Oh! Then don't let me keep you. Off to class you go." He said.
I nodded. " I hope I get you as a sensei." I said as I walked down the hall to my class.
I opened the door and all heads turned towards me. They all gaped.
" S-Sakura?" Naruto, Ino, and Iruka asked.
" That's my name." I said as I walked over to sit in between Naruto and Uchiha, that bastard.
I glared at him. He seemed shocked. I turned my attention back to Iruka.
" Glad you decided to join us Sakura." Iruka said.
" Whatever." I said indifferently.
" As I was saying before we were interrupted, Squad 7, Uzumaki Naruto, Haruno Sakura, and Uchiha Sasuke." Iruka said.
I glared at him.
He shivered.
" Hey, hey! Why does a super cool ninja like me have to be on the same team as him." Naruto shouted pointing at Uchiha.
" My thoughts exactly." I murmured, glaring icily at Uchiha.
He shivered.
" Because, you had the lowest scores and Sasuke had the highest scores." Iruka answered.
" The next team is..." I blocked him out and before I knew it it was lunch time.
" Hey Sakura-chan, do you want to eat lunch with me?" Naruto asked.
" No, thank you. But I do know someone else you can eat with. She really likes you too." I said.
" Really?! Who?!" He asked excitedly.
" Hinata." I said. " She's a good one. Don't let her escape."
He nodded. " Hey Hinata-chan, want to eat lunch with me?!"
She nodded. She looked over at me and mouthed ' thank you'. I smiled.
I walked over to Ino.
" Hey Forehead Girl, if you're trying to get Sasuke, it's not going to work." Ino said.
" Did you miss how much I glared at him? I don't want him anymore. I want to be friends again. It was stupid to break off our friendship over that cold hearted bastard." I said.
Ino was shocked. I stuck out my hand.
" Friends?" I asked.
She smiled warmly. " Friends." She took my hand. " So do you think I should give up on Sasuke?"
" Yeah. He's just a cold hearted bastard who would break your heart if you didn't." I said. " Besides, I think he's gay."
" Okay." She said with a smile. " He probably is. Before you got here he and Naruto kissed accidentally. It was really funny now that I think about it."
I laughed. " Yep! Guess what!"
" What?" She asked.
" I set Naruto and Hinata up!" I said excitedly.
" Really? She's been crushing on him forever!"
" I know!" I looked at the clock. " Lunch is almost over. Let's get back to class."
She nodded.
We went back to class and I blocked everything else out. When I actually looked at what we were doing I saw we were waiting for Kakashi to arrive.
Naruto got mad and threw a tantrum.
I smiled fondly. Back in my time he had died, as Hokage, protecting the village. Uchiha was the one that killed him too. I, in turn, killed him. I smirked sadisticly when I thought of that memory. I then got sad. Kakashi had died in the war with Akatsuki. We had won, but not without casualties. I was the last of my team in my time.
He, he being Naruto, suddenly grabbed an eraser and put it in the door.
I sighed. He'll never learn.
" He's a Jonin, an elite ninja, do you really think he'll fall for that?" Uchiha said.
Just then a hand was on the door. It opened slowly and just as the eraser was about to hit Kakashi I threw a kunai so fast it looked like I hadn't even moved.
" Naruto." I said icily. " We are ninja. Do you understand what it means to be a ninja? It's not all fun and games. People die and if you go on acting like this you're going to die prematurely."
All eyes were on me.
I glared at them all. " It's the way of life. I'm just stating facts."
Everyone shivered.
" Well, I'll be on the roof." Kakashi said and poofed away.
Uchiha and Naruto got up and left.
I sighed. I disappeared in a shower of pink and black cherry blossoms and appeared on the stairs in front of Kakashi.
A couple minutes later Naruto and Uchiha joined me on the stairs.
" Okay. Let's introduce ourselves." Kakashi said.
" Show us how to do it!" Naruto yelled.
" I'm Hatake Kakashi. Likes. I like a lot of things. Hates. I don't really hate anything. Hobbies. I have lots of hobbies. Dreams. I haven't really thought about it."
I sweat dropped. ' Same old Kakashi.'
" You, blondie. You go first." He said.
" My name is Uzumaki Naruto. I like ramen. I hate the 3 minutes you have to wait for the ramen to cook. My hobbies are eating ramen and trying different kinds of ramen. And my dream is to be the greatest Hokage. So everyone will stop disrespecting me and treat me like I'm somebody. Somebody important." Naruto announced.
" You, emo kid, introduce yourself." Kakashi said.
Uchiha twitched. " My name is Uchiha Sasuke. I don't like anything and I hate a lot of things. I don't have many hobbies. And my dream I will make a reality. I am going to kill a certain someone."
I snorted. " Good luck with that."
He glared at me. I glared back icily.
" You, pinkie, introduce yourself." Kakashi said.
" My name is Haruno Sakura. My likes and hates are none of your concern. My hobbies are my own. And my dream is none of your bussiness." I said emotionlessly.
" You lied to me?!" Kakashi yelled.
" Never give out information about yourself freely. It could get yourself killed." I said as if I was reading it out of a book.
He nodded. " Very good. You are the only one to pass my first test."
I nodded.
" Well, let's meet up for a survival exercise tomorrow at 5 am." Kakashi said.
" Survival exercise?" Naruto asked.
" Yes. Out of all the genin that passed, over 66 will fail. So that means only 3 teams will make it. It's a make it or break it, pass/fail test. The ones that fail get sent back to the academy."
Naruto gulped.
" Oh, and don't eat breakfast tomorrow or you'll puke." He said before he disappeared.
I sighed. Naruto and Uchiha turned around to leave. " See you tomorrow, Naruto, Uchiha." I said before I disappeared in a shower of pink and black cherry blossoms. They turned around only to see pink and black cherry blossoms where I stood only moments before.
I reappeared in my room and layed down on my bed.
' What are you going to do tomorrow?' Ine asked.
' I'm going to eat breakfast and show up to practice 3 hours late!'
' That's my girl! So are you going to tell Hokage-sama about your pregnancy?'
' Yeah, that'd probably be best. We can probably get Tsunade-sama here to help us deliver.'
' Yeah, but it's gonna be hard without Gaara here.'
' Yeah. Well, I'd better go see Hokage-sama now.'
I disappeared in a flurry of pink and black cherry blossoms and reappeared outside the Hokage Tower.
I walked inside and over to the receptionist's desk. The receptionist looked up.
" Can I speak with the Hokage please?" I asked.
She nodded.
I walked up to the door to the Hokage's room and knocked. I heard a muffled ' come in' and I walked in.
Sarutobi looked up and smiled. " Yes? What is it Sakura?"
" Sir, I need to tell you something of the upmost importance." I said seriously.
He nodded.
I did some hand signs and sound proofed the room.
" What is it Sakura? And what's with the change?" He asked.
" The change is because I hated how I looked before and I have to tell you that I'm from the future." I said.
