Chapter 6: No longer alone

2 months later

It was November, and the family had finally gotten the hang of life at the new school and was slowly enjoying themselves. The rebellion group against the king's rule had yet to make a move but was gradually planning. A hour before school, the group would meet in the courtyard to speak about what was going on around the school and to make plans.

"First things first, we all agree we need a mole," Sakura confirmed.

"I know just the guy too," Kiba grinned at Hinata with his usual toothy grin.

"Of course!" She exclaimed, immediately messaging someone from her phone, "He's been trying to find a way out since the moment he joined."

"You don't mean-" Tenten's face flushed a bright pink.

"Gaara, give me food," Sakura whined, rubbing her growling tummy.

"Here," He handed Sakura a bag of chips and a can of corn. Something about this girl was intriguing and he just couldn't get enough of her. He was even willing to listen to her every will. HIM. The big bad Gaara!

"Yay," Sakura cheered, digging into her food. She leaned in closer to Gaara, being drawn in by his captivating gaze. Gaara was just surprised that he didn't mind physical contact with the pink haired woman. He felt like protecting this seemingly innocent girl who always ate.

"Face it kid, you got a think for the chick," his inner demon chuckled.

"Shut up Shukaku." Gaara hesitated. "But I must have a thing with her if I have these feelings. But how could anyone love me back with the way I am?" That shut Shukaku up.

"So whose gonna be our mole?" Ino asked.

"I'm guessing it's gonna be me," A guy sighed, coming over to their lunch table. He had long brown hair that resembled a girls, and Hinata's ghostly eyes.

"And who might you be?" Sakura asked. She pushed her hair back so Ino could French braid it for her. Within the three months of them being here, including the summer, her hair had already grown a little past her shoulders.

"I'm Neji," he began, glancing at Tenten who blushed and turned away, "I'm Hinata's cousin."

"So why do you want to help us anyway?" Tenten asked, finding her voice, her brown eyes ignoring Neji's pale ones.

"I hate the king system just as much as everyone else does. I only joined in order to protect Hinata so they wouldn't bully her as much. But they started bullying her again so there's no point of me staying in there."

"Do you trust him?" Naruto asked Hinata.

"Yes," she replied sternly.

"then so will I," Naruto grinned, grabbing her hand reassuringly. She must've beamed the brightest smile because everyone around her couldn't help but smile along with her.

"So what do you want me to do?" Neji coughed, trying to avoid the fact that someone was flirting with his cousin, and she was flirting back.

"Get as much dirty evidence against the people in the club as possible. We need to humanize them to the public so people won't be afraid of them. To do this we need to prank them, reveal information against them, and divide and conquer. We want to pin the members against each other, that's one of the fastest ways to disband them," Sakura explained, everyone nodding in understanging.

"Wow, you guys should work for the military," Neji grinned, causing everyone to laugh.

"Well then I think that just about finishes this business so let's relax," Naruto exclaimed, stretching his arms. "So what is everyone doing this weekend?"

"Nothing," Gaara, Neji, and Shikamaru said at the same time in the same monotone.

"Wow," Ino smacked her forehead.

"I'm going on a date with this pretty lady," Kiba grinned, grabbing Ino closer to him. It was already known that the two had been flirting a lot lately.

"Are you asking," Ino rose a eyebrow.

"Of course," he laughed.

"Then I guess you have plans," she smiled, a light blush on her cheeks.

"Well so are we," Temari grabbed Shikamaru. The two had already been dating since last year.

"Troublesome," He sighed.

"What?" she growled, a slight pout on her lips.

"Kidding woman. No matter how troublesome, if it's with you I wouldn't mind it," he nuzzled her neck.

"AWWW," Ino and Tenten giggled.

"Shut up," Shikamaru rubbed the back of his neck with a peevish look on his face.

"Tenten what about you?" Ino asked.

"O-oh? I'm just gonna train at home I guess," she shrugged.

"I wanna come too!" Sakura yelled out.

"you can come train with me on Sunday if you want," Tenten offered.

"Sounds like fun," Sakura grinned.

"Are you sure?" Naruto asked Sakura.

"Hell yeah," she chuckled.

"Well I got to get going. It would be bad if people saw us hanging out together," Neji sighed. "This has got to be the most interesting conversation I've had in a year, how sad." Everyone looked at the guy with pity as he walked away. The girls got up and grabbed Tenten before walking away.

"Be right back boys," Sakura said, to a certain red head.

"okay spill it Tenten," Temari demanded, after getting away from the boys.

"Spill what?" she looked away.

"What's up with you and long haired dude?" Sakura asked. "Don't even try to hide it. We noticed the longing glances between you two, and I almost gagged."

"Okay okay," she sighed. "I asked him out last year, we had been flirting and we both seemed into each other. I just thought since he didn't like embarrassing things that he wouldn't ask me out. But then he joined the fucking king's bullshit club and ignored me. Now that I think of it, he may have been trying to protect me but all I can remember is the pain. I really fell for the guy and here he just left me!" Tenten cried out.

"Shit Tenten I'm sorry," everyone turned to see Neji.

"Wha-?" she was flustered to see the man she had loved.

"You were by our table so I saw them drag you away, I didn't know you still felt that way towards me. Tenten," Neji sighed. "I thought it would be easier if I didn't get involved with you. I had to protect Hinata, I couldn't put you in danger too."

"Shut up and kiss the girl," Sakura growled, kicking him in her direction.

"Is it okay with you?" Neji asked.

"Oh shut up," Tenten laughed, jumping on the guy. The other girls blocked everyone's view so no one could see the controversial couple.

"Well done," Ino grinned pounding knuckles with Temari and Sakura.

"Did you guys plan this?" Hinata gaped.

"Damn straight," Temari shrugged.

"Hinata you're next," Sakura wiggled her eyebrows.

"No leave me out of the games. I want to do it on our own terms. I'll get him by force if I have to," she smiled.

"How daring," Sakura laughed. "I'm gonna go back to the group, you guys done making out?" a eep and a hn made Sakura shrug and walk away as Neji snuck away. "GAARA!" Sakura sang running towards the red headed man.

"What?" he sighed moving away from her wide arms.

"tsk," she pouted. "Don't be like that," she moved closer to him slowly to jump on him. Suddenly something whizzed by their heads, almost hitting Sakura if Gaara hadn't moved her out of the way. "What the-?" she muttered.

"Sorry," The group heard a cold voice laugh. "I just hate seeing something as beautiful as you be near a stray mutt like him," Sasuke approached the group. "So what do you say, want to come join my crew? I'd love a girl like you by my side," he looked Sakura up, a lecherous look in his eyes. He pushed back his pitch black hair locks, his onyx eyes sizing her up. Naruto let out a growl at the way he was looking at his sister.

"Um, I'm good with him," Sakura cuddled into Gaara's arms. "He's much better in bed," She winked, making Sasuke blush.

"Oh I didn't know that you were so outgoing, makes me want you more," he grinned.

"What the hell?" Sakura twitched. "Seriously though, you aren't my type."

"So you like the scum type?" Sasuke scoffed, a haughty look on his face.

"Shut up! Gaara ain't scum!" Sakura growled out. Her skin began to feel electric and her veins were humming. Gaara looked at Sakura in surprise as he noticed small bands of electricity twirl around her arms.

"Maya," Naruto said sternly. She snapped out of her fit of anger.

"Huh?" she asked.

"Want some ramen?" he asked.

"Hell yeah!" she giggled grabbing the food and wolfing it down. Sasuke looked at the girl in surprise. She had just completely ignored him.

"Hey," he growled. Stomping his foot down in anger.

"Nom nom nom," Sakura giggled, snuggling into Gaara. She really liked this position.

"I said HEY," Sasuke roared, smacking her food from her hands. "I was talking to you. Do you realize who you're ignoring?"

"Oh shit," Naruto muttered.

"Not good," Ino said, she'd seen what happened to people who took her food. Suddenly a ferocious aura surrounded Sakura and everyone began to feel the hair on the back of their necks raise.

"Someone needs to stop her," Naruto muttered, she still hadn't gotten in control of her powers.

"Sakura," Gaara said sternly, moving her face towards him. Without another word, Gaara kissed Sakura. She seemed to relax in the kiss and a calm aura replaced her ferocious one. The two fell deeper into their kiss and soon Sakura's arm were around Gaara's neck and his hand on her hip. Gaara sucked on her bottom lip gently until Sakura opened her mouth in order to assault his mouth. Sakura tasted of sweet cherries while Gaara's tongue was rough like sand, yet she couldn't get enough of it. Everyone just stared at them wide eyed. For everyone else, it wasn't bliss, just plain awkward.

"Fine, see if I care," Sasuke shrugged, walking away. Gaara finally pulled away from the kiss. Sakura's eyes were hooded in lust as she stared at the man who was making her heart hurt.

"I don't think I'm quite calm yet," she grinned jumping on Gaara and kissing him again.

"Seriously, go find a room," Ino sighed.

"Fine," Sakura wiped the saliva from the side of her lip. "Time for class anyway," She shrugged standing up, grabbing Gaara's hand. "Don't think you can get away from me now," she winked.

"I had no plans of it," he shrugged, pulling her closer.

"Good," she grinned. The two walked hand in hand through the crowded hallways.

"I'll tell you this Maya. I've never felt like this for anyone before and I don't want to share you. I'm a possessive guy, a dangerous one, but I still want you," he said.

"And I'm probably more dangerous, I have many secrets and a past. I'm stubborn and abusive yet I want nothing more than to stay by your side," Sakura laughed to herself.

"Then in that case just become my girl," he shrugged.

"What?" Sakura turned to him in surprise. "You don't even know me."

"You don't know me either, but we both want each other. If it doesn't work then that's just life, but for now, I don't want you out of my sight. I think we found each other for a reason, maybe fate wants us together, we'll just have to find out," his sea foam green eyes were smoldering. Sakura was dumbfounded. She wanted this man so badly. Surely it wouldn't be bad if she trusted this man.

"I'm a bit afraid of relationships," Sakura admitted. "My mother went through a bad one, I'm afraid I don't remember how to love," Sakura sighed sadly.

"I'm the same way. In fact I'm afraid of any type of relationship. But you've opened me up to friends and love in only 3 months. I want to see how interesting life could be with you," Gaara shrugged. "And you made me talk more now than I've ever talked in my life." Sakura laughed at him.

"Then you're just gonna have to be by boyfriend then," she laughed.

"I'd prefer it that way, you can be the girlfriend then," he smirked. The two walked into class hand in hand, making the class point in surprise and fear.

Sakura had a rebellion against the king system, her family to take care of, and she had to protect everyone from the organization. But despite these burdens, she just wanted a moment where she could forget it, in this man's arms. Every girl wants a hero right?

"Let's try to be as discreet as possible," Sakura joked.

"Why, it's better if everyone knows you're mine," he bent her over and kissed her on the lips roughly. "Just a good morning kiss."

"O-ok," she said, following after him to her seat blindly.

The next day was a special day. Not only was it Friday, but The revolution had finally made it's first move, although small it would still have a big effect. Ino had put a mask on and cut Karin's hair at the salon she usually went to. She came into class the next day with one half of her once flawless hair chopped off. Too say she was pissed was a understatement. But Karin had decided to go with the fact that it was a new image of hers. Though she tried to pass it off as a new image, most people doubted her. Too bad Karin's group caught up to Sakura during the passing of periods. She was so pissed off and she just wanted someone to take it out on. And Sakura had volunteered. She came back to the table at lunch with her hair cut up to her ear where some parts were shorter than others. It had grew out to her shoulders, she was trying to get it as long as her mother's once was.

"Shit Maya," Gaara had growled, running his hand through her hair and on the cut on her cheek where a girl had used her nail.

"What are you talking about. This is part of the plan too, who would like this? Some girl gets a bad haircut so she takes it out on someone else? Heh," she grinned. "Something as pathetic as this won't faze me."

"I thought you want to grow your hair out like moms?" Naruto had blurted out.

"your mother?" Gaara asked.

"Yamoto, shut up," Sakura glared at Naruto.

"S-sorry," Naruto looked away.

"Maya-"Ino began.

"Hey don't. I like this new look anyway," Sakura grinned. "Gives me a more sexy look ne?" Sakura batted her eyes at Gaara.

"Hn," he shrugged, making Sakura twitch.

"Doesn't matter," Sakura stuck her tongue out at him playfully. She really wished that the two of them could have a normal relationship. But she had other obligations.

"Hey did you guys see Karin's haircut?" A girl giggled, passing our table.

"Yeah, makes her seem like everyone else right? Even rich girls can have a bad haircut," the other laughed. Sakura grinned.

"It's working," she turned to everyone with a bright smile. "We will surely make this a enjoyable high school."

"You truly are amazing," Ino laughed.

"hey I heard that Gaara has become more sociable," Sakura's ears perked at the sound of Gaara's name. Lunch was a little more noisy today than usual.

"Maybe he'll finally accept a girls confession without hurting them!" Another suggested. To say this pissed Sakura off would be a understatement cause she picked Gaara up, and made him stand on the table with her.

"HEY LADIES, HE'S TAKEN!" Sakura yelled at the top of her lungs and smashed her lips up against Gaara's.

"What the hell?" she heard, but right now, with Gaara on her, she really didn't give a damn.

"Hey Gaara, wanna meet my little sister?" Sakura asked, stepping off the table.

"hn, kids don't mix well with me," Gaara sighed. "They are usually scared of me," he shrugged.

"Don't worry, Shia isn't easily frightened," Sakura grinned.

"Then sure, but I'd be worried if I were you," Gaara sighed, grabbing Sakura's hand possessively as he noticed a couple men staring at her lecherously. Her action with him had given others naughty thoughts. Gaara gave the group of men a haughty look as he pulled Sakura closer. "I know a shortcut." The two of them wobbled down a broken path towards the elementary school.

"My sister really is adorable!" Sakura doted.

"You already said that," Gaara said in his usual monotone. "I noticed something the other day by the way," he began.

"Like what?" Sakura asked.

"You created electricity," he shrugged. She turned to him in shock.

"What?" she asked, this was bad. She had already been found out.

"Don't worry it wasn't that noticeable so nobody else saw," he shrugged. Sakura backed up in fear. "Sakura, there's no need to be afraid of it. I'm not gonna tell anyone if that's what you're worried about." Sakura let out a yelp as she fell backwards from a rock. She was heading towards a bunch of shattered glass.
"Maya!" Gaara shouted out and suddenly she was being protectivley wrapped by sand.
"What the?" Sakura touched the smooth sand that held her.
"It's my power. What's with that dumbfounded look?" Gaara scoffed. "You thought you were the only one?"
Sakura got up and rubbed her forehead.
"Sorry if it scares you," he turned away from her.
"It's not that Gaara. I just want to confirm some things," She smiled brightly, grabbing his hand. "I have a feeling that we're not the ones in this school who are," she hesitated, "Special."

"No I can feel a couple of life sources that are different that normal humans, I just can't clarify who they are," Gaara shrugged.

"That's pretty cool. I wish I could do that," Sakura pouted.

"You probably can, you just haven't learned to control your abilities," he shrugged.

"Neither have you." Sakura glared. He only shrugged though, making Sakura roll her eyes. "Why don't we explore the school grounds a bit more?" Sakura asked. "I have a feeling it has a few more secret I'd like to explore," she grinned.

"Like I said before, things are so much more interesting with you," he leaned down and kissed Sakura, making her blush cutely.

"W-well, let's go explore!" Sakura said. Looks like we're not the only ones here with powers, Sakura thought. There has a to be a reason behind this though…"I guess we're no longer alone," Sakura mumbled to herself, staring out at the forest ahead of her.
