Title: Sakura and her merry band of misfits

Summary: I've never done anything bad ever. I always do my work, listen to my elders, and shown respect to everyone I've ever met. So why am I in a mansion with a bunch of freaks that are at least seven years older than me? sakuraXmultiple

Okay, I know I haven't been adding chapters or stories to lately and I could sit here and explain every itty bitty little detail but I'm just going to say this. Things happen. I seriously was going to have the whole story written and post a chapter every Friday but I'm just going to say this once again. Things happen. So, while I can I'm at least going to upload this one chapter. Warning: I didn't proof read this.

Chapter 1: Bad little girl

'It's all Ino's fault.' Sakura decided as she analyzed the large frat house in front of her. If a certain blonde bombshell hadn't keyed and tagged the teacher's car in one of her revenge schemes Sakura wouldn't be in this mess. Why did she have to be a good friend and take the blame? Thanks to all that she has to come two weeks out of the month and do five hours of community service a day.

Now she stood in her high-tops, yoga pants, and XL sweatshirt with bottle cap glasses snugly on her face. She turned to leave before she looked down at the community service signature book clutched in her hand. At least one of the members of the fraternity had to sign the booklet proving she had been there for sentence.

Man, she felt like a true criminal.

Her malachite eyes rolled to the back of her head and she leaned against the door with a long sigh. Before she could chicken out and make Ino take on her own punishment head on, the door opened and she fell against someone.

"Watch where the fuck you're going, seriously." The foul mouth that was supporting her stepped aside letting her fall flat on her back. "Just who the fucks are you any fucking way?" From her spot on the floor Sakura looked up at the fuchsia eyed man rubbing her head. "I'm a lady, first and for most." She began standing to her feet and yanking her sweatshirt back down to her thighs. "And second of all, I don't want to be told off by an old man with the gayest fucking eyes I've ever seen." Cursing felt foreign to her tongue but she was too insulted to care. In truth she wanted to feel his gray hair to see if it was naturally that slick looking; and thought his eyes were beautiful but he was rude.

Aside from the fact that normal people don't go around petting a stranger's hair.

He looked surprised before he glared down at the bold pinkette with his beautiful eyes. "Listen here short stop. I don't know who the fuck you think you are-" He was cut short when Sakura held up the community service booklet and a pen. "We could stand here arguing all day long or you could just sign this and I'll be gone." She smiled ever so sweetly and Hidan snatched the book from her hands.

"Well why didn't you fucking say that shit five fucking minutes ago, seriously?" Right when the pen made contact with the paper a voice interrupted them. "You really are an idiot, being outsmarted by a high schooler." Deidara shook his head taking the pen out of Hidan's hand. "She has to work at least five hours before we can sign her book, yeah."

Sakura's smile was wiped away when Deidara patted her head with a lopsided grin. "Nice try though kid, un." She swatted his hand away and stopped her foot on the ground. "I am not kid! I'm a senior, you know." Kisame came up behind them in the open door way and raised an eyebrow. "Who's the little girl?" Sakura silently sulked and walked further into the house. "I'm going to find someone nicer to spend my five hours with."

After aimlessly wondering the house she ended up in the dining room. "Great." She considered going back to ask grandpa, tranny, and shark-boy what they wanted her to do but decided against it. She glanced around before sitting on a chair in the corner and putting in her headphones. At the sight of the crack in her screen she made a mental note to tell Hidan off. Sakura was actually an anti-social goody-two shoes nerd, which is why her punishment wasn't as serious. Since this was her first and only offense, the principal felt she needed a life lesson. Sakura needed to see how it would be in the real world. That actions like this wouldn't be tolerated and there'd be consequences.

A.k.a. her principal thought it would actually be a good idea to send a high school girl to a men filled house. Unsupervised.

She tapped her fingers against her thigh to the beat and inaudibly hummed along with the lyrics. It hadn't even been a full hour since she's been here and she was already expecting her time here to be boring. Glancing around she started to wonder if they'd feed her. A new faces entered the dinning room mildly surprising her. He had glossy black hair with scarlet eyes specked with black.

None of them bothered to glance in her direction as they shuffled around the kitchen. 'Why am I even here? I could just go and say they didn't need me. I'd rather be sitting comfortably at home than in a strange house.' Itachi turned to look at her and she stiffened. 'I didn't say that out loud, did I?'

Sakura felt uncomfortable and awkwardly coughed in her fist deciding that hey, that's a very intriguing crack in the wall. When she still felt his eyes staring holes into the side of her face she took out one ear bud. She politely smiled in question waiting for Itachi for say something. He simply sat at the table never breaking his stare. She put the ear bud back and attempted to ignore him.

'He's not human! No one can stare that long without needing to blink!' Sakura ripped out her ear buds and stared into Itachi's eyes. A minute passed before Sakura finally blinked rubbing her sore eyes. "I give up! What do you want? Why haven't you stopped staring at me? Is there something on my face? God all of you people are such weirdoes!" She started breathing heavily before she hung her head at his lack of response.

"This is why I prefer listening to music at home alone where I don't have to meet people and do things." At the sound of Itachi's chuckling Sakura's head snapped up. He smirked and leaned on the palm of his hand. "Hn. You sure are rude." She opened her mouth to object his claims and call him a hypocrite when he spoke first. "I got your book back and you yell at me?"

She made her way over and gently took her book back. "Did you sign it?" Itachi nodded and she smiled brightly opening the book. "Thank-you! I could kiss you right now-

Wait.

You only signed your first name." Sakura looked at the still smirking Itachi and her right eye twitched at an unhealthy pace. 'I hate this place. I absolutely hate it.' At the sound of the dining room door opening Sakura warily looked up. A red head with cinnamon eyes raised an eyebrow in her direction. 'Is that a woman or a man? They're really pretty but that person with the blonde hair turned out to be a man, not a woman.' Sasori leaned against the wall with his arms crossed over his chest. "Ah. You're the little girl who likes to scratch and spray paint things."

"I'm not little."

"So you admit you like to scratch things."

"I'm not a cat; I don't like to scratch things."

"So you admit you like to spray paint things."

"I never said that."

"Then why'd you do it?"

She chewed on her tongue in irritation at the cockiness in his voice but otherwise remained silent. If she told the truth he could get Ino in serious trouble but it'd shut him up. But Sakura was an absolutely terrible liar. "Sasori, leave her alone." Pein looked at her and she relaxed if only slightly. Their first meeting was when her principal had assigned her the community service.

His aura screamed intimidation and his eyes were very judgmental.

But despite his appearance he was surprisingly polite. "Hello Pein-san." He nodded and gestured for her to follow him. "I have something I want you to do." Wordlessly she stood and left the dining room with her book tucked into her sweatshirt.

Sakura had to practically run to keep up with his long strides. Either he didn't notice her struggle or ignored it as they walked. "Kakuzu has been saying he needs someone to work around the house. Today you'll help him and tomorrow you'll help Zetsu with his garden." She nodded silently wondering what the others would be like. They stopped in front of a door and Pein knocked. At the muffled what is it Pein opened the door. "Kakuzu, this is Sakura. She's the high schooler who'll be helping you today."

Sakura peeked at Kakuzu from her place behind Pein and saw him crouched over his desk. He grunted and Pein nodded down at her. "After this it will be around the time for you to leave." Pein left and Kakuzu turned to look at her up and down. "You're too small to left hefty things. How are you at cooking?" Sakura lifted her hand and slightly tilted it to the left and right in a "so-so" manner. "Alright. You can clean." She shook her head no and stuffed her hands in her sweatshirt's pocket. "Any time I try to clean something I either make it dirtier than before or break it completely." Kakuzu heaved a sigh leaning further into his chair. "What good is free labor when there's nothing you can do?"

Sakura shrugged glancing at the spread of money on his desk. "I'm smart. I'm on honor roll and can speak another language fluently." She nodded and he turned to look at his desk. "You have 1,068 yen on your desk." He smirked gathering his money in his hands. "Good. Since I don't have anything else for you to do you're dismissed." She pressed her lips tightly together and tightly held the book out at arm's length. "What do I get for signing your book?" She handed him the book and a pen. "Me out of your hair."

Kakuzu signed it and Sakura happily accepted it. "Since you didn't actually do anything today I'm going to work you like a mule tomorrow." He muttered in his gruff voice placing the bills in a drawer under lock and key. 'Sadist.' Sakura nodded and calmly left forcing herself from running out of the house with tears of joy. The sun had just began to set and she looked to the multicolored sky with a soft sigh. Day 1 completed.

Alright, I was going to make this chapter short but I stretched it out. I guess you could call this a prologue but Konan's in a sorority and Tobi isn't going to show up until the next chapter which I don't know when it's coming but I plan on it coming soon.
