Sasuke is driving home after stopping at Quick Trip for a soda and some gas. His car is filled with music from the radio. A song from Cobra Starship came on, "My Moves are Hot." But, before it even started, he turned it off to have time to think.
'Well, that was weird.' He took a sip of his soda and kept at a constant speed, windows rolled up and A/C at full blast. 'That Sakura girl touches me, and retracts her hand like I'm some sort of disease. Then smiles and walks away. That's a first. Usually girls jump me and try to rape me where I stand. Well, maybe I can use her.' He continued to drive on until he came up to his house.
His house is small, and is colored a chocolaty brown with blue trim. He opens the door and is stunned to find everything in boxes. 'What the hell?'
"Hey Sasuke, we're moving!" Came the response from around the corner from his foster father, the infamous perverted teacher, Kakashi Hatake.
"Why? And why not tell me until now?" came Sasuke's questions accompanied with a full on glare.
"We're in danger of foreclosure, and with what I'm making, I just can't afford it. I was able to get a place to stay while I find another house in my budget. I didn't tell you earlier because I didn't want you to worry."
"Well, what about school? I can't just up and leave," stated the stoic Uchiha with an intensified glare that yelled, "MURDER!"
"Oh, but that's the best part, you don't have to. It's within the district, but just a few minutes farther then where we live now."
"Did you think of everything?" He asked as he started to relax.
Kakashi smiled and replied, "Yep! I almost packed everything as well. Everything, except your room, you would feed me my own hand if I went in there."
"Very well," sighed Sasuke, "I'll go pack."
Sasuke went up stairs and into his room, and after he was safely inside, he heard Kakashi yell after him, "We're gonna have room mates!"
'Damn him.' He thought as he went on to pack his things. 'Hm, I wonder what kind of idiots I'm gonna be living with. Oh well, as long as I get my own room, I'm fine.'
The Next Day
Iruka came into the class when the tardy bell rang and closed the door behind him. Everyone sat down, and paid attention to what the new counselor had to say. Some people off to the side kept on talking like no tomorrow. Iruka cleared his throat, and the small group, lead by Kiba, quieted down turned to see what Iruka wanted.
Iruka looked at the class and started, "Alrighty then, Kakashi-san will not be here today. Apparently, it was last minute. So, I will be acting as your substitute teacher for today, since I was a college professor before a counselor, and a diverse high school teacher as well. So, where was it that you all left off yesterday?"
Two hands were raised, one from Sakura, and the other from a girl with spiky red hair, low worn glasses, and very high boots. She saw Sakura's hand up as well, and scoffed. Iruka noticed it with his keen eyes, and called on Sakura to see what the girl's reaction would be.
"Sakura."
The girls hand fell, and she narrowed her eyes on Sakura, gritted her teeth, and clenched her fists. Iruka was not the only one to notice, for both Sakura and Naruto noticed it as well.
"Well, Kakashi left off giving us a method of factoring a polynomial, if it was a perfect square. Then, he went on and explained how to do so if the polynomial was not a perfect square. He said that today, we would learn of the quadratic formula and how to see if a polynomial is prime using it."
"Very well," smiled Iruka, "Karin." He pointed to the girl who was staring daggers at Sakura's head, "Since you didn't get a chance to explain, would you like solve an example problem on the board. Both the short cut way and the long way."
Karin smiled and got up towards the board. She picked up the dry erase marker and got ready.
"Alright," started Iruka, "Simplify x squared plus twenty-four x plus 144."
Karin quickly followed suit solved the equation. Her answer read, "(x+12) (x+12)"
"That is correct, you may sit down now." Iruka motioned her to sit and quickly saw how Karin gazed at Sakura as she passed. 'Hopefully this doesn't cause problems.'
After that, Iruka went on to explain to the class further how to solve the problems, all while keeping an eye on Karin. Naruto and Sakura doing the same, and Sasuke noticing how they are all doing the same.
'Hm, guess they already see Karin.'
Needn't to say, class was boring. But, with Iruka's thorough explanations and strong patience, everyone came out of class knowing perfectly well what he was talking about. And so let's go to GYM.
"Alright, all you wonderful bundles of YOUTH! Get ready!" The gym coach yelled out very loudly into the microphone. He was a very tall and muscular man who had on a green t-shirt and green basketball shorts. He seems to not either not care much for his hair, or still lets his mom cut it, because it was in the oh so famous bowl cut.
The strange man quickly spotted the two new students, Naruto and Sakura, and called them over. "Yo, Blondie and bubble gum! Come here!" Naruto and Sakura exchanged a look and went up to him.
"Ah, two new faces! Sorry I wasn't here yesterday, my son broke his left arm and leg, and I had to accompany him to the hospital." He pointed to himself with his thumb, smiled, and said, "Mite Gai is my name by the way, and what is yours?"
The "Blondie" started off with a voice so loud that it quieted most of the gym, "My name is Naruto Uzumaki!"
"And my name is Sakura Haruno." She smiled as she elbowed Naruto in the side, receiving a satisfying grunt from him.
"Alright, let me assign you partners so that you can do some exercises so I may know how fit you are!" Gai looked around and called out Sasuke and Karin. "Alright Sasuke, Karin, take Naruto and Sakura to the gymnastics room in the back and start them on these." He handed them a clip board with exercises and a place to record the results. They took it and went off towards the gymnastics room, but not before changing.
Naruto and Sakura changed quickly and had to wait for Sasuke and Karin to finish. Once finished, they entered the room, and did some quick warm-ups. Naruto and Sakura both noticed how Karin didn't take an eye off of Sasuke, and they both made a note of it, and how Sasuke just simply ignored her.
And so gym went, neither Naruto nor Sakura exerted much effort in their one minute drills, which caused Sasuke to become curious. Karin was too busy watching Sasuke and trying not to kill Sakura.
'Not another little bitch to hover over Sasuke. Oh hell no, I'm gonna make her life here a living nightmare.'
