Sakura woke up to find that she was alone in the room. She looked at her clock that was the shape of a Gamabunta, it was 9:13 a.m. Misaki's parents told her they would go to work and come back at noon. Where could have Sasuke gone to though?
She heard the door downstairs open then close. She went downstairs and smelled something that made her stomach growl. Really loud....
"Sakura??? You there???" She heard Sasuke's voice and relaxed.
"Yeah, its me Sasuke-kun. " Sakura coming out of hiding. "Where were you?"
Sasuke placed the bag he had on the table and took out two tuppers. "There was something I felt like eating today. So I went out and bought some for you and me. It's a chinese dish called chop suey. I also brought a bit of fried rice." He explained as he took out a box of fried rice.
"What?" Sakura said confused.
"Just try it." He stabbed a shrimp and poped it in Sakura's mouth.
She chewed cautiously slow and then started chewing quicker to the delicousness. " Oh my...thats amazing...I bet Naruto would ditch ramen for this!"
Sasuke nodded thinking of the nuckle-headed-but-always-there-to-help-ya ninja.
"Anyways, how did you come across this food, did someone recomend it to you?" Sakura said. She's always just oh-so curious.
Sasuke thought. "I just past a chinese restoraunt and the smell was sort of familiar to me. So I just went in and bought it. Ate it and enjoyed it. And after a while- -"
"YOU DON'T NEED TO TELL ME THE REST!!!!!!!!" Sakura said or rather yelled not wanting to hear the embarassing part.
Sasuke kept eating to hide his smirk as a result to her reaction.
"So anyway again, where are going today?" Sakura asked. "Back to the school? The forrest? Oh, What about your place?!" Sakura said excited.
Sasuke immidiatly stopped. (Like when you say the wrong thing.) Sakura looked at him worried.
"Sasuke-kun? Is something wrong? Did I say something?" Sakura asked, lowering her chopsticks.
Sasuke just stayed silent and continued eating. The rest of breakfest was spent in ackward silence. Sakura finished and through away the disposible topper and placed the chopsticks in the sink. She looked back at Sasuke as she quikly washed the chopsticks.
'What...did I do to make him like this?' She thought feeling really bad. 'Did something happen to him...in this world...'
Sakura swallowed hard, nervous to asked him what was wrong.
"Sasuke-kun--"
"Sakura..." Sasuke stopped her. "Lets go." He said a bit of a cold voice.
Sakura just nodded, not wanting to bother him or upset him. She dressed in a blue t-shirt with a picture of a panda on it and light jeans to the ankle, and gym shoes. She put her hair in a low tail, and a cherry blossom pin. She stepped out to find Sasuke next to the door. He wore the same thing as yesterday. Plain black jeans, a white shirt with a black dragon on it and a long sleeved black shirt underneith and white gym shoes.
"Your done? Okay now lets go." He said heading to the stairs.
Sakura just followed him. She didn't think she could talk to him.
They left the house and walked to the school. He told her all the basics of the rest of the school rather then what really mattered...finding the reason why they were both there.
Sakura was pretty bored of the school tour, because she could have guessed it right away. That classroom is math. That one is science, social studies, art, music,etc. Sasuke was keeping her away from something or something away from her.
Next they went to places he said Misaki has been to with other friends. The mall, park, movies, beach. They even came across some of Misaki's friends. Sakura thought they were okay. But while she was talking to them, Sasuke looked off into space, thinking deeply. After that it was starting to become dark. Sasuke said they would head home. Sakura spent the entire day enduring the feeling that he was keeping a secret.
"Sasuke-kun, whats wrong?" Sakura said stopping. "You been like this all day."
Sasuke didn't turn to look at her. "Just keep walking."
"No! What's wrong with you? Ever sinced I asked where are we going today, you started being colder then usual." Sakura said finnaly letting out what was bothering her. "Tell me!"
Sasuke sighed. "You're annoying, Sakura. Its not you're buisness or mine." His voice was as cold as a blizzard.
"It is our buisness! It is if you want to go back home! Spit it out!" Sakura grabbed his arm.
"IT'LL HURT HIM!" Sasuke yelled. "Rai doesn't want to, so I cant. Not because he's controling me or anything but because I understand him! Just wait til I can tell okey!?"
Sakura was taken aback. But then something came over her. "Fine! To think you of all peaple trusted me, Rai! But if thats how it is, then I'll leave you alone until you can tell me, if you really do have trust in me!" Sakura ran away as soon as she finished. Tears in her eyes.
"Ah, Misaki!!"Rai yelled after her.
But Sakura wasn't running. It was, Misaki.
'Misaki-chan, if you can hear me, say so.' Sakura said while she was inside.
"Yes I can hear you!" She said while running and crying. "Who are you?"
'My name is Haruno Sakura.' Sakura said. 'You need to stop running, Misaki-chan.'
Misaki kept running, they were now inside a park that had more trees then the other parks. Misaki still kept running. Rai was chasing after them. Misaki looked around for a place to hide. She climbed up the tree nearest to her quickly and quietly. She stayed there until Rai had long past them.
She ran the opposite back to where she started. She crossed several streets and went through an alley. Bad choice.
When she stopped to catch her breath,a older man, drunk, came up to her. Misaki was blocked from her entrance so she ran the other direction just to find a dead end.
"N-no. Dammit!" She said under her breath.
"Hi, there little lady..." Said one of them said approaching closer. "Come to play?"
"Stay away! Leave me alone!" Misaki said.
The man went closer and got a better look of her face. "Ah, well if it isn't the little sister of that brat. How's he doin? Oh, wait he's dead!! Aahahahaha!" He laughed.
Misaki heart sank to her very core. "Aoi..." She fell on her knees.
'Misaki-chan! Get up we have to get out of here!' Sakura panicked.
"No...I can't...Aoi..." Misaki hung her head low.
"You said the same thing that day. But your not that same annoying brat are you? No..." The man chuckled.
He grabbed Misaki by the collar and made her stand, he pulled a gun from his pocket and pointed it the side of her head. His hand crawled up her shirt.
'I have no hope...Aoi is gone...Rai doesn't trust me...and Mom and Dad are...'
'Then let me be you hope, Misaki-chan!'
Sakura suddenly took back control and instintly punched him hard in the gut. "Just who the hell do you think you are?!" Sakura yelled furiously.
The man grunted a bit but then started laughing. He pointed the gun at her again. "Looks like you forgot. I the one who killed your brother and soon you...!" He gave an evil grin.
Sakura just glared at him. She knew she couldn't possibly bring a man with a weapon down. 'Unless I get my chakra back...I'm finished.'
The man pressed the gun against the side of her head again. Sakura froze. And continued from what he was doing before. Sakura punched him again. She'd rather be dead instead of being raped. He lifted his gun again with annoyance and frustration in his eyes.
"Looks like I have to kill you first." He removed the safety. "Say hi to your brother for me!"
Sakura closed her eyes with one tear going down her face. "I couldn't help you Misaki-chan, but at least I didn't give up without a fight."
