Hey!
New Chapter, not-so-long but I have little time, hope you enjoy it

Disclaimer: Nope, still not owning Naruto

I woke up drenched in sweat, almost screaming. It was raining outside and my window was slightly open. What in the world was that? I shook my head and looked at my clock, 8:00. Since academy starts at 9:00 I decided it was a good idea to take a bath. Feeling the cold water run through my body made me think about that drea-, nightmare. It was horrible, seeing that little girl all alone in the fire of her house; watching the little girl's brother die. But, that little girl looked so much like me, could it be? No this is silly, my parents are in this house and I don't have siblings.

Maybe you DID have a brother, and he got killed.

That isn't true and you know it inner.

But that could be, do you remember something, anything, from when you were a little girl? It could be possible.

What are you saying, I'm not from that village, I have no brother or sister, and I'm just a genin.

Then what about the mark on your left arm? Hmmm?

And there it was; Inner's trump card. I took a quick glance at my arm, feeling the familiar, yet unwelcome pain it provides. Little symbols, too little to be able to read, were there, in an unnatural bright yellow color that I always covered with a white bandage. I sighed and decided to finish my conversation with inner while stepping out of the shower. I dressed in my usual attire- black, loose pants; fishnet shirt with another black, long-sleeved shirt above, and the signature ninja sandals.- I tied my long hair on a low ponytail and my headband hanging loosely in my neck. I was ready for my first day as genin.

I opened the door of my classroom only to be greeted by the annoying sounds of one of my best friend's fangirls. I sighed and took the seat the bunch of fangirls wanted, right between my two best friends, Naruto and Sasuke. I could feel the killing intent of practically all the girls in the classroom directed at me. Oh the joy, luckily I was saved by Iruka-sensei.

"Class settle down, first of all I'd like to congratulate you for graduating and becoming genin, now I'll be placing you into three-man-squads which will have a jounin as leader. Team seven Haruno Sakura, Uchiha Sasuke and Namikase Naruto."

I almost can't believe that I'm actually in a team with my two best friends, it's almost un-believable. I smile softly at the thought of us jumping around the trees in Konoha while escaping from the bad guys. With our skills, being a ninja team will be a piece of cake.

But the smile I had turns into a frown, since the seal in my arm decided to "nicely" remind me that the world is not pastel pink. It makes me think about my conversation earlier in the morning with inner, which is very quiet as of now, that dream really unnerves me, or more like the possibility of it not being a dream, but a past I long since forgot, in an unnamed village, with parents and a brother I don't remember having, in a house I don't remember living in.

I can't help but imagine that maybe living in that unnamed village, in that compound, would be better than living in Konoha, because even though I have friends in here, in the house I live in is hell. I can't help but think about all the times my father and mother have beaten me to a bloody pulp whenever I don't do certain things as they want me to do them, how many times mom has thrown an empty bottle of sake at me for not peppering the dinner correctly, or if I tripped and fell. I recall what happened two nights ago, when dad threw me around the basement for forgetting to do the dishes, my head hitting mercilessly against the cold wooden floor, my legs and arms covered in bruises and blood running down my forehead. Mom watching, while drinking a cup of tea in the sidelines.

I can feel the bandages that are in my arms and my legs, covered by my daily outfit, hiding from other people's eyes the bruises and scars.

But then I remember that mom and dad treat me like a princess sometimes, and it irks me to reach my house when the academy finishes, and not being able to tell if I'll be beaten, or treated like royalty. It's driving me crazy. So yeah, all in all, it'll be a good idea to live outside Konoha, even for a little bit. Or maybe not, because I'll be vulnerable in other place that wasn't my village.

But Saku, is Konoha really your village?, is it really the place that you were born into?

I was going to answer her when my musings were interrupted by someone shaking my arm.

As I turn my head I meet a pair of sky-blue eyes, and a pair of onyx ones. Both eyes full of concern, and deep inside, amusement. The eyes belonging to my two best friends.

"Hey Sak, are you 'kay? You spaced out and we're the only ones left in the classroom, even Iruka-sensei left, 'ttebayo!"

Oops, seems I went to the moon. So I nod and let myself be dragged by my goofy friend to the academy`s rooftop, Sasuke following close behind.

When we reached the rooftop, I immediately took out my bento box and started to eat what little I could cook in the morning. Naruto took out homemade ramen and Sasuke snatched some tomatoes from his backpack (even after all 6 years of knowing him and eating lunch together, I still can´t get how in the world does he keeps tomatoes alive in his backpack), and the three of us sat in a circle.

"Okaa-san asked me to tell you you're all invited to the Uchiha compound for dinner at the main house, it will take place at seven sharp, and it's not formal."

Naruto laughed good-naturedly and patted Sasuke's back.

"Tsk, after all this years of knowing each other and you're still as formal as ever Teme."

Sasuke just smirked, and continued to eat his tomato.

Meanwhile, on the Hokage office, Kakashi Hatake received a glance at his new genin team.

A civilian, the second heir to the Uchiha clan, and the Hokage's son; an interesting team indeed.

Well, there you have it. I made this as long as possible, but I ran out of ideas…so, yeah
