Chapter 2: Stubbornness
Oh my God…oh stubborn can this freak get? So Sasuke wouldn't tell us why Kakashi-sensei knew him and why he knew Kakashi-sensei. What is he hiding?
"Come on, Sasuke, just give us a little hint?" Ino asked, trying to convince him.
That won't work…
"No." was all he said…again.
"Sasuke, you know what, you're the loser." Naruto said.
"Shut up, dobe, Sakura won't save you again like last time."
"Sakura-chan didn't save me!" Naruto yelled.
"I so did, Naruto!" I yelled at him.
"You did not?!"
"Are you sure, Naruto? Because if my memory serves me right, I remember that you thanked me for saving your butt!"
"I don't remember anything!" the blonde responded.
"Naruto, it happened just an hour ago…" Choji said and sweat dropped.
"Oh…"
"Ugh!" Everyone screamed…of course Sasuke and Neji didn't say anything. They just glared at the stupid blonde.
"Never mind…let's just pretend this never happened…" I said.
"Agreed…" Ino said and sighed, "Anyway, back to Sasuke-kun!" she smiled and winked.
Sasuke didn't even look at her and just continued walking. "All of you leave me alone. None of you need to know what happened before and don't interfere with my future."
And he kind of just left us standing there like idiots… I guess now I know how Naruto feels each time he is insulted. I wanted to go do something for him. Just something but my mind just went blank. We all looked at one another and Shikamaru shook his head.
Haha…Shika-shook…
Will you ever shut up?
"Sasuke doesn't want any help if any of you haven't noticed yet. I've never met anyone so stubborn and coldhearted." Shikamaru said.
"Besides Neji," Tenten smirked.
Neji glared at Tenten and said, "Be quiet, Tenten."
Tenten smiled, "You know I'm right though, Neji."
"Ugh…"
I looked toward Sasuke now. He was very far off in the distant, walking with his hands in his pockets like always. Then we all realize…
"OH CRAP!?! WE HAVE TO GET TO OUR NEXT CLASS!?!" We all shouted and ran as if our lives depended on it.
"Okay, now I would like to know why the heck you three are late?!" our teacher yelled at us as we ended up being late for three minutes. What she meant by three is Choji, Hinata, and I. Hinata and I were never late in our lives.
This can't be happening…Damn you, Sasuke…
Now that's not nice!
"Well, we can explain!" I said but really, it was a lie.
"Well…where's the explanation?"
Yeah, what now?
"Hmmm…we were walking down the halls and came across someone that was a coldhearted freak and looked like a pain." I paused, "And he started to insult us in the most indescribable way."
"What words did he use exactly?"
"I said indescribable, didn't I?"
"Well, who insulted you with such indescribable words?"
"It was Uchiha Sasuke!" It was like I had no control over what I said. It just kind of slipped out. Choji and Hinata just looked at me like there was something wrong with me and I knew they were right. "I mean! Sasuke called me a bitch!"
This is what happens to someone when they are always on time…and never experienced the feeling of being late…
Everyone was like "whoa…" and the teacher was even surprised that an Uchiha would say such a thing to a sweet little girl like me. To me though, it wouldn't be so surprising. It's just that I accidentally got Sasuke into trouble. He's gonna be sooo mad at me…
"Uchiha Sasuke said that!?" she was surprised alright.
"No! I meant he wanted to do something worse to me! He wanted—"
Choji stopped my misery by covering my mouth. He said, "Sorry, what she meant to say is that Sasuke is a good person and would never do that stuff, right Sakura?"
"Sure-haha-he would never-ha-do such a thing-haha!" I stuttered with laughter.
The teacher wasn't buying it at all. "Sakura, have you learned the art of lying yet?"
"Of course!"
"Really? So if I would to do a lie detector test on you right now, do you think you would pass?"
"Ummm…?"
"So who should be in trouble? Mr. Uchiha or Miss Haruno?
"UCHIHA!" I shouted loud enough that I think that Sasuke could even hear it. Where ever he was.
"I see…so I would like to talk to him after class, if that's alright? Oh and by the way, my name is Yuki Kurenai. Oh! I believe I will be teaching you next period, Hinata."
"Y-Yes, K-Kurenai-sensei…"
"Hinata, I do believe that I'm your main teacher right?"
Ohhh...wow...poor Hinata...That lady is also her teacher for many of her classes. This is going to be a looonnnggg year.
"Y-Yes, s-sensei…"
"Alright, just making sure, well children…welcome to my class of the art of lying."
Lying? So that's why she was talking about the lie detector thing. Oh no…do you think she already knows what happened about Sasuke?
I doubt it…I mean, she wasn't there.
"Who knew lying could be so hard?" Choji said as he sighed. Our first class, besides homeroom, was lying and that basically threw us off.
Choji was right. Lying is harder than you think. We lie everyday and little do we know that there is more than that little lie than you think. My brain hurts right now. Thanks a lot Tsunade for giving me a hard class in the morning...
Great…
It wasn't that I didn't like Kurenai; it's just that she teaches with such strictness but she still has confidence in us that we will get it. Kurenai is really pretty, to be honest, and she has long voluminous red hair. When I first looked at her, I thought she had the Sharingan for a minute because her eyes were red. It turned out to be natural.
"At least we only have her this period. Hinata has to see her next period." I said. And then it hit me… "Wait…if she has her main teacher next period…does that mean—"
"Sakura-chan, we have class together next period?!?!" Naruto literary screamed into my ear.
"Does that answer your question?" Choji asked because he already knew what I was going to say.
"Oh…no…"
"G-Good l-luck, Sakura…" Hinata said as she was blushing red. The smell of Naruto makes her blush!
"Thanks Hinata, I'll need a lot of it…"
"See ya Hinata-chan! Bye Choji!" Naruto yelled and waved before dragging me to my doom.
Great... Sasuke…
"NOT AGAIN!?!" I screamed.
Yup, Kakashi is late again... What could he possibly be doing? I have to tell Sasuke that he has to see Kurenai after class. This is not going to be good…
"Uhhh…Sasuke…" I said without looking at him. He just turned his head to look at me. "You-uh-have to see Kurenai-sensei after class…"
"Why?"
"Ummm…well…Because-um- you're an Uchiha and she wants to see your Sharingan…" I looked at nothing in particular.
"That's the reason?" he asked, not sure about if I was telling the truth or not.
"Uh… yeah…"
"Why does she want to see it?"
My eyes widen. Oh crap… "It's because her eyes are red too but they're natural. I guess she wanted to see what the Sharingan's color is like." I said.
"Oh…why is this teacher so interested?" He said irritated, "Sakura, you're coming with me to see her."
"What?! WHY?!" I yelled.
"Owww! Sakura-chan, that hurt!" Naruto screamed.
"Because—"
"Sorry I'm late again. The teachers had a meeting and it took us a while to get it over with." Kakashi-sensei said.
"Hmp!" I pouted and crossed my arms.
"What's wrong with her?" he asked.
"She doesn't like guys anymore so she's turning lesbian." Sasuke plainly said.
Oh my God…
SASUKE!!!!!!
"I'll kill you!!!" I screamed with all the air I had in my lungs. I dashed toward him with my fist in the air. "You're gonna pay!!!!"
"Hn…" he said with his calm attitude.
WHY THE HECK IS HE CALM?!?!
"UGH!!!" my fist was about to reach his amazing- I mean ugly- face until—
"HEY! LET GO, KAKASHI-SENSEI!!!!" I tried to wiggle free but there was no use. Kakashi-sensei had picked me up by the back of my shirt and I was hanging there.
"Sorry Sakura but I don't think you should kill Sasuke just yet," He smiled, "You got your temper from Tsunade and not just your strength."
"Hmmm…" I growled.
"You have better things to do than to just kill Sasuke. We have to begin training."
"Oh…" I said quietly. I just remembered that we were in class.
"Shall we begin?"
"Yeah!" Naruto yelled with enthusiasm.
"Ugh…" I said and glared at Sasuke.
Great…and after this, he'll probably drag me to Kurenai…
"So, kids, your first task is…"
"Yeah?" Naruto and I said at the same time.
"…is to take a secret letter to Tsunade."
"That's it?" Sasuke asked like it was no big deal.
"Ohhh…It's much more than that…" Kakashi said, almost in a whisper.
"What do you mean?" Naruto asked.
"You'll see…" He handed me the letter, "Now Sakura, if I put you down you're not going to kill Sasuke, are you?"
"No…" I frowned. "I won't Sensei…"
He smiled, "Good!" He put me down gently and began walking away.
"Wait! Kakashi-sensei!" Naruto yelled.
"Yes Naruto?"
"So basically you're just giving us a piece of paper and deliver this to the principal?"
"Didn't I just say that?"
"Isn't that your job though?!"
"No, actually, I'll give you a hint. Let's just say it's a pre-test."
"You're giving us a test on the first day?!" I screamed.
You have got to be kidding me?!
"Why of course! Now, after you're done, you can go with your friends to have break. But if you don't finish by then…You'll have to skip lunch also."
"WHAT THE HECK IS THIS?!" I couldn't take it anymore. This guy is crazy!
"High School, now run along now, you don't want to miss your breaks, do you?"
"AHHHHHH!!!!" Naruto and I screamed.
What a bad first day…
So Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke ran but are running…
…
….
…..
……
……. straight unto something they least expected. Delivering letters isn't so easy…especially if you're in a ninja high school.
"Naruto, are you alright?" I asked. Sometimes I think Naruto is clumsier than me! He trip over some rope.
"Yeah, I'm alright!" He said.
"Well hurry up, dobe, I don't want to miss break." Sasuke said.
"Alright, alright!" Naruto began to get up. "What the— guys, I need help here!"
"What's wrong now— Ahhhhh!! Sasuke, what's that!?"
"The rope turned into hands!" Sasuke said.
Ewww!!
"What is this?! Naruto! Get out of there!" I screamed.
"Right! What do you think I'm doing?!" Naruto cut the hands away from his feet and ran towards us. The hands suddenly disappeared.
"Okay…what is wrong with this school? It wasn't like this earlier…" I said holding onto Sasuke's and Naruto's arms. This was literary freaking me out.
"It looks like genjutsu…Question is…how do we get out?" Sasuke looked around to find an exit.
I looked toward my right as I watch Sasuke try to find an exit, but then, I saw something across from Sasuke. It was charging at us and was going to hit Sasuke.
"Sasuke! Watch out!" I screamed.
And we dodged the thing and it looked at us with such intensity that I thought Sasuke always had in his eyes. The thing turned out to be a person.
"What…are you?!" I asked.
The person only smiled.
Thanks for reading! Sorry it's a little short. Who is this person, and why is he/she a part of this genjutsu? Please review! I need some inspiration so show some love!
