Claimer: I own the plot and the OC Aki, Haruka (Last, First; Autumn, Distant).

Pairings: SasukexOC (Other pairings may come)

Summery: Haruka moves to a new town and expects everything to be normal like in her old town. But, she's in for a big surprise when she finds what she least expected... her Sacrifice.

New town, new school, new house, new friends, new clothes, new everything! I don't even like change so this, for me, is the worst! I was completely content with the friends I had at my old school, but then my dad's job moved and so here I am! In a new house like I mentioned earlier. I'm into the same things all the time because I tend to lose track of the past and future since it sometimes seems like I'm living in the past.

I have no sense of time. I'm… timeless.

My name might be Timeless, but I also have another name which is Haruka (faraway, distant).

There's also a good part to this moving. I haven't been able to find the one I really need back in my old school because you see, I'm a Fighter Unit and I'm looking for my Sacrifice.

You see, this means that when I find the other person whose name is Timeless, I'll have found my Sacrifice. You probably don't even know what I'm talking about so I'll explain.

There are Sacrifices and Fighter Units between a pair of people who have the same name. When I find the other Timeless they'll be a Sacrifice.

A Sacrifice is the one who takes the hits when in a fight and they command the Fighter Unit and the Fighter Unit has no choice but to listen.

A Fighter Unit is the one who can cast spells just by saying the perfect words when they enter a fight with another pair who have a Sacrifice and a Fighter Unit; that is, most of the time.

I'm not at all sure when I'll find my Sacrifice, but they say that when you do find them, it's someone you feel naturally attracted to.

I once asked a Fighter Unit how they found their Sacrifice and she had told me that she was naturally attracted to her Sacrifice and when they had found out they had the same name, they were inseparable ever since they found out.

I don't really know how I'll find my Sacrifice, but I'm hoping that it'll be a surprise like it was for the Fighter Unit I knew. There's just something about finding out things that really makes me tick.

But with the name comes an unstoppable fate and bond. Those sharing a name must have a bond in order to function well and win. We're all joined together with a little wire that gets stronger over time as we call for our other half through our thoughts which can strengthen the wire to make it a wire much like those you find on a bridge. Since the name must have a bond attached to it, it also makes something stronger than a bond of love which is why those who have the same name are really close.

That's what I want and at the same time, that's what I don't want. I want to be able to have a really close bond with my other half, but I also want to be able to choose another person who I was meant to be with, but it just doesn't work that way. All in all, I want to find my other Timeless and at the same time, I don't.

"Haru-chan! Would you come over here and help with the television?!" my mother called from the moving truck.

"Coming mother!" I shouted back as I ran to go and help her.

Well, I guess this is the beginning of my new life and my new, and greatly looked forward to, search for…!

Timeless.

||~*~||~*~||

I have my schedule in hand and now I've got to find the classes. I was going all around the school in order to find the classes I had and I found out that each of them were going to be on opposite ends of the school each time. At least I would be able to get to my locker all the time.

By the time I had everything figured out I was finally heading to class. When I got there, I saw some people already there as I set my things down quietly and sat in my chair. The people in the classroom glanced at me from the side of their eyes and I could feel their stares on me and it was nerve-racking. I tried to pay little mind to them as I took my Ipod out but then the bell rang. I pouted to myself and put it back in my maroon bag as other students began to flock inside. The last people to enter are a group of girls who seem to be concentrating on something in the center of their gathering. I didn't pay these people mind as I put my chin in my palm and set my elbow on the table boredly while reading a book instead. When the group of girls dispersed, there were three persons that lingered.

One of them, to my surprise, has pink hair with emerald-colored eyes. She wore a red shirt with a pretty design of butterflies. Her pink hair is short and her white bunny ears matched it pretty well. She wore light blue pants with red flip flops. She was latching onto the guy's right arm as her long white tail flicked back and forth with excitement.

I think I forgot to mention something. Everyone here either has bunny, dog, or cat characteristics, like ears and tails, to signify that they are virgins. Once you've had sex, you lose the ears and tail which tells the whole world what's happened to you.

The second girl had long blond hair in a ponytail and although it was tied up, it still went down pretty low; about mid-back. She has teal eyes with no pupils and her cat ears were a cream-color which matched the blond hair where a section of it is hanging in front of her face. She's wearing a teal shirt with a purple jacket on top of it with darker pants than the pink-haired girl while also wearing purple flip flops. She looked just as pretty as the pink-haired girl as she was latched onto the guy's left arm.

Then, the main event of the reason for all the girls was the guy they were holding onto. He has midnight black hair that glowed blue when under the light. His eyes are onyx and they seemed bored along with being annoyed. He wore a white shirt with a gray jacket with a heavier black jacket over it and the gray hood was hanging out. His pants are dark blue with a black belt holding them up. I noticed that his black cat ears and tail were twitching angrily.

I looked down at my books, unable to look up. I usually don't pay mind to the popular guys, but I found myself just staring at him. It was odd how this guy was catching my attention when I didn't want to give it to him.

"Let go of Sasuke-kun, billboard brow!" the blonde girl demanded. "He wouldn't want to look at the likes of you!"

"Oh shut up, Ino-pig!" the pink-haired girl countered. "Why would he want to talk to a porker like you, ne?!"

I glanced up at the three of them, the blonde girl I thought to be Ino, and I could see that the boy looked like he was being tortured. I didn't let my glance linger for even four seconds until I looked down at my sketch book and began doodling a weird-looking lion.

"Because unlike you, Sakura, I might be a porker but still better looking than you!" Ino retorted.

The girl I assumed to be Sakura gasped at the comment while the class let go a, "Oohh!" to signify that Sakura had just been told off.

"Ladies, please, sit down," came a voice from behind them.

I looked up to see the teacher who was giving them a nice, yet somehow scary, smile. Sakura and Ino quickly ran to their seats while the boy casually walked towards me. I looked straight ahead, trying not to show interest, although I saw him glance at me and then walk past me. The teacher came inside holding a book above his right shoulder with the smile still planted on his face.

His hair is brown and tied tightly into a high ponytail but I didn't see ears which made me think that it was only natural since he's an adult. On his face lay a scar going across his nose and ending underneath the corner of his eyes. He's wearing a white shirt with a black tie and black pants along with black shoes.

"Good morning class. Today we have a new student so be sure to introduce yourselves. Having that said, let's go over our homework from yesterday."

Almost everyone in the classroom looked straight at me and I just kept looking forward while just looking plain bored.

As the class dragged on, I seemed to lose a sense of time. By the time I finally paid attention, there was only fifteen minutes left of class and I thought that to be pretty good which meant that I would have to pay attention for only ten minutes. I listened to the last part of Iruka's speech for five minutes before he gave the class ten minutes to talk.

The two girls from before walked over to my desk and stood there until I was forced to look up from my worksheet to look at them.

"Hi!" Ino greeted.

"Hello there!" Sakura greeted as well.

"Um… hi," I said uncertainly.

"How do you like our school so far?" Sakura asked happily. I thought that it was odd that Sakura and Ino were getting along when they were just dissing each other and fighting.

"It's alright so far," I answered. "It's pretty big, although it's nice. I like the teachers so far since Iruka-sensei seems pretty nice. The classrooms are nicer than in my old school, but I already heard the stuff that was said today."

"Really? What's your old school like?" Ino asked as she sat down on my desk. I leaned back so I wasn't so close and I began explaining to them what my old school was like and what I liked about it.

What I didn't know was that Sakura and Ino were talking to me so they could seem cool while being close to that boy they were clinging to since he sat behind me. I also wasn't aware of the fact that he was listening to what I was saying as well while not knowing he was right behind me.
