Whims

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

A rather tan hand quickly retracted from the pale neck it was about to wrap around, as an alarm clock rung loudly. Cursing quietly, the shadowy figure fled just as vibrant green eyes flew open...

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

"No, seriously! I swear I saw someone!" A long, pink-haired teen protested as she and her friend walked to school, "I wasn't sure when I saw- er- it, but now I'm positive!"

"Sakura, listen to me," A teen girl with even longer, blonde hair, tied in a pony, huffed as she turned to the said person, "You were probably still dreaming, or even hallucinating."

"But Ino!" Haruno Sakura protested, "It WAS real! It even cursed!"

"It?" Yamanaka Ino raised a brow, her aqua eyes gleaming with curiosity.

" 'It' is human, I'm just not sure of 'It' s gender," Sakura sighed. They were almost at the school yard, "Let's just drop it. We're almost there anyway."

"Good. That was getting really annoying!" Ino said loudly as she hurried ahead.

"ANNOYING! That's what you are!" Eyes as cold as Pluto glared down at her, narrowing, "Annoyingly WEAK and PATHETIC!"

"Sakura?" the cold, glaring eyes were replaced with concerned ones, "You okay?"

"Huh? Oh-! Uh, yeah... sorry." Sakura mumbled, as her brows furrowed slightly as she thought.

"Well you sure are one big space head, huh forehead-girl?" Ino said over her shoulder as they continued on.

"Oh, look who's gotten a fat head! Or should I say, fat middle? Hm, Porker?" and on they continued insulting each other 'til they reached school property and met up with the rest of their friends.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

"You what ?" an ominous whisper asked from deep within a shadowy alleyway.

"Couldn't... kill her because... of an alarm clock..." a second less than happy voice mumbled, sighing deeply.

" That's what I thought I heard." the first voice snapped, "Because of a stupid alarm clock. You had to choke her? Why couldn't you stab- STAB! Her?!"

"I like things... complicated." The second figure growled. He did NOT like to be mocked.

"Well, make sure these 'complicated things' don't get in the way of your job, of your assassination," the first figure murmured angrily, "Or else a pay is to be made..." and with that, he disappeared in a whirl of blackness, leaving the second figure to ponder.

"But I've already paid. A price that I regret..."
