OK ON WITH THE STORY

and once again i dont own naruto!

You are the sun...

Shining me with your radiant innocence

Even If I endure pain if

it's all for your smile it's all good

I'm waiting for the Rising Sun...

Sakura was with her two teammates, Ryoku and Hizanu, on a boat headed to the ninja village in the Fire Country, Konohagakure. Sakura was sitting, leaning back against the wood of the boat getting irritated as her teammates were quarrelling about whose sword was sharper.

"You see look...my sword is sooo way sharper! It could cut you're pathetic sword in half at first contact!"

"Yeah right! Rikoshin can slice yours into a million pieces!"

A sweatdrop formed on her head as she thought on how two thirteen-year old boys can act like such babies. Having long forgotton the event that took place a year ago, Sakura had fully mastered the full potential of her 'curse'.

Being feared by most of her village, Sakura would only trust those who were friendly to her. Her friends. She was not entirely cold, not a merciless killer as everyone thinks she is. But if she were to be provoked she would kill. Yet, there would always be a reason her would kill...

She wouldn't kill without a reason..

"Hey Sakura...Sakura...Sakura...SAKURA!", Ryoku yelled as the girl hadn't answered to any of his calls.

Having of fallen asleep deep in her thoughts, she woke up to find that the boat had stopped and Ryoku's sky blue eyes looking straight into her jade eyes, faces barely inches away from eachother.

"EHHH? GET AWAY FROM ME YOU HENTAI!" Sakura schreeched, standing up suddenly and slapping Ryoku across the cheek.

"Well...I wasn't doing anything in you're perveted mind SAKURA!" He yelled anime crying, while rubbing his red marked cheek. "we're here, just so you know." And with that, Ryoku grabbed his sword the 'Rikoshin' and ran towards Hizanu who had already descended upon the sandy beach near the harbor.

Sakura looked at both her teammates warringly. Ryoku's spiky blue hair swayed in the wind as he patiently waited for her. He was rather tall for a thirteen-year old...standing at a height of 5'6 he was intimidating with both his height and a huge sword. He was one that she actually thought of as a friend. Wearing a black sleeveless shirt with a mess shirt under, with baggy but not too baggy pants most girls would call him hot.

Hizanu...well he was a different story...except for the arguments with Ryoku he didn't really talk much. But with flaming red hair and black eyes...he was cute in Sakura's eyes.

Walking over to them, she gave them both a smile as she strode pass by them and walked towards the gates of Konoha. As they walked, Sakura could not help but overhear the whispers the people gave to eachother as soon as they spotted Sakura.

Looking at her with glaring eyes, and hiding their children away, as she walked pass them

Ryoku, noticing this whispered something into Sakura's ear.

"Don't worry. They don't mean anything. K?"

Smiling at his kindness Sakura whispered back, "Yeah.." She was guessing MOST people were imtimidated by the Ice Village, with their skilled ninjas, and advanced jutsus.

Looking at the people again she noticed teenage boys eyeing her pervetedly (eh...im not sure bout the spelling xD) as she walked by. Sakura was wearing a white sleeveless shirt, black shirt under, and was wearing shorts with a black skirt on the the outside. (you know like the one in Naruto 2)

Ryoku glared at the boys with his blue eyes as to saying "stop looking at her or you'll die."

Secretly, he liked Sakura, more than a friend. But he would never say anything, and would just act like an overprotective brother to her.

They stopped walking as they saw a boy wearing a kitty hat, with purple marking across his face, holding up an annoying little brat. Irritated that they got stopped, Sakura stepped foward and told the kitty hat boy to put the brat down.

"And what if I don't pinkie?" Kankurou said, mocking her.

A blonde haired kid stared at Sakura with hearts in his eyes as she threataned Kankurou. And with interested eyes, a raven haired, onyx eyed boy watched quietly in the tree as the pink haired girl talked.

"Look...my teammates and I just want you to put down the boy so we'll be on our way."

"Kankurou...put him down...or I'll kill you." A deep voice said. All looked up to see a red haired boy, with no eyebrows, and a gourd on his back hanging upside down froma tree branch.

"Oh..ehheh...hi Gaara. Yeah..I'll just put him down." Kankurou said afraid that Gaara would kill him. Knowing that he wouldn't hesitate to, even if they were siblings. Sakura looked at this 'Gaara' with interest. Looking into his eyes, she didnt know why but she could see loliness,anger, and hatred.

Things that she felt.

The blood she shed that day...

Screams of 'have mercy' and she still slaughtered them all...

after what they did to her..

Suddenly out her thoughts, she looked around to see that the Sand ninjas had gone and all were there was her teammates, the blonde haired kid, a black haired artist, and an Uchiha.

"Hi I'm Uzumaki Naruto. And you...are?" the blonde Naruto asked giving him a fox-like grin.

He was whiskers on his face...?

"I'm Haruno Sakura. These are my teammates, Ryoku and Hizanu." She said...eyeing the boy with interest.

"Judging from your headband...I'm guessing you're from the Snow Country?" the Uchiha asked. Staring at her with his deep onyx eyes.

"WOW...the Ice Village! I hear they have really strong ninjas there." Naruto said, still smiling.

"Yeah..."

The next day they headed to the building where the first Chuunin Exam were to take place. Reaching the hallway, there was a big crowd gathered around two boys who were blocking the doorway to the next floor. Sakura saw a girl get punched by one of the boys and fall back onto a mushroom haired ninja, in green spandex.

Knowing it was a genjutsu, Sakura and her teammates walked over to the two boys and asked POLITELY to move aside. They refused. The boys insulted Sakura after refusing to move aside, and by insulting her, she was losing her patience.

Throwing back an insult, one of the boys attempted to punch her. She caught his wrist and turned part of his arm into ice. Sakura heard amazed gasp as she did this. Sensing the other boy ready to throw and attack she, produced an ice sword on her arm, pointed it at the boy and said, "Don't you dare try and fight me with your pathetic hits."

She was angry. And both her teammates knew, no one could stop her if she was angry. Sure they could hold her back for a while but once her demon blood gets even angrier its impossible to stop her. (yes...sakura is half dragon demon...theres not a demon in her...she IS the demon. partially anyway...)

Everyone surrounding them, looked at the ice ninjas with amazed eyes. Sakura, having calm down was soon again irritated or rather...bewildered ...as the mushroom haired, guy in green spandex came up to her.

"I Rock Lee...promise to protect you until I die! Please be my girlfriend!" He did his Gai-pose...and she couldn't help but sweat-drop.

Ryoku...suddenly getting protective put an arm around Sakura's shoulders and glared at Lee.

Naruto and his team came up to them and said, "Wow...Sakura-chan that was amazing! You seem really powerful!"

Sakura-chan...

She was taken a-back by the sudden suffix in her name. No one ever called her this. Maybe Naruto could ...actually be her friend.

"Right...Sasuke-teme." Naruto said, nudging the raven haired boy.

"Hn...I bet I'm stronger...dobe."

Sakura glared at him. Yeah right that guy is stronger than me...or my teammates. Such a conceited person.

"Eh...you're just jealous of Sakura-chan here! Well good-luck in the exams Sakura!" Again giving her his fox-like grin.

Some time...during the first exam...

Already knowing that they were supposed to gather information rather than do the questions yourself. They want you to cheat...

Sakura activated Drige a looked towards the person in front of her who was writing endlessly. Dragon Eyes...such a useful ability...being able to see through anythig...and I mean EVERYTHING..with the ability to see both past and present, see through solid objects, and genjutsus.

Her eyes turn white blue as Drige is being activated.

Not worrying about her teammates, knowing that they would easily get their answers one way or another, she lazily copied all answers from the person in front of her.

YAY finished the chapter!
