A/N: heya everyone! I'm new to so I'm still getting the hang of this! Just to let everyone know, I also posted this on my quizilla account (xXHarunoSakuraCherryXx) so if I have broken the rules by doing that, I will happily remove it from quiziila! Also, I do not own Naruto in any way, shape, or form, Misashi Kishimoto-san does!
Outside the window, the birds were flying in a clear blue sky. Outside, people were going on with their day. Inside the window, I was stuck listening to the teacher go on and on about something I could care less about. Inside, I wished I was out. I sighed as I watched the birds keel in a tight circle. I was mesmerized by their rhythmic circling and I could feel my eyelids closing. I looked out into the courtyard, three stories below.
I was surprised to see a black car parked outside the gates. It looked like a Hybrid, but also like a limo, only not as long. I saw two men leading four teenagers I had never seen before across the stretch of pavement. They must be the newbies…. I thought to myself as I stared boredly at them. One was a girl with vibrant red hair and clothes that any mother wouldn't approve of. She looked slightly familiar… The other three were boys. Two of them had white hair; one was tall and lanky, like me, while the other was taller still and hugely muscled. But what caught my attention was the last boy.
He had dark, raven black hair that was spiked in a very familiar way. He wore dark clothes and I noticed a skateboard tied to his backpack with a thin silver chain. Before they got halfway across the courtyard, Lady Tsunade came out to meet them with a few of the office helpers. The helpers went to the car and took the luggage bags to the dorms while Tsunade greeted the small group. Yep, they were the newbies… She began leading them into the office building. As they walked through the doors, the black haired boy turned and looked back.
Right at me.
I felt the pencil in my hand break with a loud snap! Anger started welling up inside me as I looked into the cold onyx eyes of the one person I had hoped I would never see again. I was able to keep my face smooth and expressionless as I watched with cold eyes as he went into the office, followed by the lanky white haired kid. I continued to stare coldly at the doors, even though he couldn't see me. A sharp voice broke through my thoughts.
"Uzumaki, pay attention!" My head whipped around to face Kurenai-sensei. She stared into my face for a moment more, then turned back to the board. I grabbed another pencil from my bag and scribbled a short note on my blank paper. When I was sure I wouldn't get caught, I threw the note to a girl with long black hair wearing a mask a few seats away. No one dared say anything to Kurenai if they saw it. She opened the note slowly and read it, then looked back at me. I nodded and she passed it to the other black haired girl in front of her. I watched the note go to the red headed boy on the far side of the room. When he nodded at me, I leaned back into my seat and started to take notes.
My name is Uzumaki Sakura. I'm 16 years old and I attend Konoha High, the Fire Country's most prestigious boarding school. This year, because of one boy, my world got turned upside down.

The black, limo-like Hybrid pulled up to the school's gates.
"Here we are, Konoha High." Kabuto said from the front seat in an annoyingly cheerful voice.
'Why do we even have to come to this school anyway….?" The white haired boy across from me asked boredly, flipping his pocket knife open and close.
"Because dumbass," the red head sitting very uncomfortably close to me said annoyed. "This school is the best in the five great nations and Orochimaru wanted to give us a better education. We've told you this over 20 times….."
"Really now….?" He smirked, trying to piss her off even further. I had no idea why she was in such a pissy mood. Women…..
"Now, now," Came the snaky voice of our foster father from the passenger's seat. "Don't be mean to your dear brother Karin."
"Hmph," Karin crossed her arms. "He's not my 'brother' and I'll never think of him that way."
"Good, because I just consider you Sasuke's pet dog." Suigetsu retorted. A spark of annoyance flashed through me and I interrupted as Karin opened her mouth to retort.
"Enough," I said, biting back my annoyance. "Suigetsu, stop bothering Karin; Karin, shut up..." Suigetsu laughed and went back to playing with his knife. The other white haired boy sitting next to him (and taking up most of the seat) watched him closely.
"You look like you want to eat his hand Juugo…" Karin sighed. Kabuto then opened the car door on my side; I hadn't even realized he had gotten out of the car. I sighed and grabbed my backpack, strapped my skateboard to it with a thin silver chain, and got out. Karin slipped out of the car behind me, followed by Suigetsu, and finally, Juugo. The four of us stood staring at the huge campus that was now to be our new home. Our foster father walked up silently to stand beside me.
"Does this place bring back memories, Sasuke-kun?" Orochimaru's snaky voice hissed.
"Unwanted, old memories…" I muttered, more to myself than to him. I looked around and saw a group of people coming towards us from what I assumed was the office building. A woman with pale blonde hair and an unnaturally large chest was at the head.
"Ah Tsunade, it's good to see you again." Orochimaru smiled. That threw me for a loop.
"Orochimaru, it's been a while. You look well." The woman at the front said. "It's good to see you again too Sasuke-kun," She said while looking at me. I vaguely remembered who she was. "I must warn you, none of the students know exactly that you are one of the exchange students, so they may be a little surprised to see you. Please, do not try to antagonize them or try to get in a fight; There are a lot of them that would like to give you a piece of their minds…." I nodded, trying not to pay much attention to the hint of danger I caught in that last statement.
"These must be the other three I've heard so much about." She said, smiling over my shoulder. I looked over at my "siblings". Suigetsu was staring with his mouth wide open at Tsunade. Moron…
"You pervert, stop staring will ya!?" Karin shouted angrily, slapping the back of his head.
"OW!" Suigetsu glared, rubbing the spot where her hand had hit. Juugo just tried not to laugh.
"Yes, well," Tsunade said while trying to hide a smile. "You three young men will be sharing a dorm floor with another of our students. You know him Sasuke and I do hope you won't get into a fight with him." Oh great, she doesn't mean….? "Karin, you will be staying with three of our top students. They are a little mischievous but will help you out all they can. All of them are very excited to meet you. Now, if you'll please follow me, I'll get your schedules and finish giving you the down-low."
"Tsunade, please tell me you aren't trying to be cool?" Orochimaru asked sarcastically.
"Oh shut it snake boy," She scowled. "Or I'll slap you."
"My, my, a little testy aren't we? Usually women of your age don't threaten like that…."
"Whatever, just follow me will ya?" This exchange had the four of us a little creeped out, and as Suigetsu walked beside me he whispered in my ear,
"Ya think there's something goin' on between them….?"
"Hn…" Was my only reply. I was trying to push down the small wave of panic that was inching its way up my throat.
Before we went inside the building, I felt like someone was watching me. I turned to look behind me; no one. I looked up to the window of the building 10 feet to my left and into a pair of emerald green eyes, set in a soft, ivory toned face framed with bubble-gum pink hair. I knew that face, and I had a feeling I would be seeing a lot of it this year. Suddenly, her head whipped around to look at something out of sight and she was gone. I felt someone hit my shoulder.
"C'mon, what are you staring at? Let's go!" Suigetsu said with a semi-annoyed look on his face. I forced myself to look away and nod. I walked into the building slowly, a strong feeling of dread weighing down my feet.
My name is Uchiha Sasuke. I'm 16 years old and for the first time in 3 years I've come back to Konoha as a transfer student from Oto High School. I had no idea that one person could take my life and turn it into a living hell.

Iruka had just dismissed our English class. Because the new students were coming today, Granny Tsunade was letting out all classes after lunch to greet them in the auditorium. Since three of them would be staying with me on my dorm level, I got to meet them first and show them around before the welcoming ceremony. Sakura, Hinata, and Yoko would be showing around the only girl in the group. My shaggy blonde hair fell over my eyes as I knelt down to put my books in my backpack.
"Naruto." I heard Iruka call my name. I raised my head to look at him but was blinded by a sheet of bright yellow. I jerked my head to the side to get my bangs out of my face and smiled up at Iruka.
"Yo sensei," I said. "What's crackin'?"
"He he, just wanted to see how you were doing." He smiled with the slightest of sweat drops.
"You don't have to check up on me every day you know sensei," I said with a sideways grin. "I mean, I get into trouble a lot, but not every day."
"I was just wondering if you were excited about the new students coming today." He smiled back.
"Heck ya, I'm excited. Even more than that, I'm stoked!" I flashed my trademark grin. "Who wouldn't be when there's half a day of school, no homework, and when they get to meet the newbies before everyone else?"
"That's right; these new students are causing quite a stir with the other kids." Iruka nodded. "Of course, whose to blame the students for getting so restless, nobody knows who they are, not even us teachers."
"Yeah, I can't wait to meet 'em!" I said while packing the rest of my books and slinging my (still open) backpack over my shoulders.
"Alright then," Iruka said with a laugh. "But do me a favor okay?"
"Sure, whatever you want."
"No matter how mean these guys are, no matter how much you want to fight them, please don't…" Iruka said with a serious face. If I hadn't known any better, I could have sworn it sounded like he was begging me.
"Uuuh, sure sensei…" I said, a bit thrown off by his request. "Anyway, I better hurry up and get to lunch; I don't want Kiba taking my seat." I threw a wave over my shoulder as I ran out the door.
"Hey, Naruto!" I heard Iruka yelling after me. "Remember what I said, don't fight them!"
"Hai, hai!" I yelled, half listening as I shoved my iPod headphones into my ears and disappeared into the crowd. Something in the back of my mind told me faintly that Iruka knew something about the new kids that we didn't. That's stupid, I thought. Iruka doesn't even know who they are, none of the teachers do. I pushed the thought away into the back of my mind, but something was telling me I was wrong. I tried my best to ignore it as I entered the cafeteria.
My name is Uzumaki Naruto. I'm 16 years old and attend Konoha High with my twin sister Sakura and older brother Deidara. Something told me that Konoha High boarding school was about to be hit with the biggest change it had ever experienced in its 50 years; too bad I didn't listen.
