High School Trauma

Full Summary: Sakura thought this would be just another boring, average school year. However, the arrival of a few new students makes that quite impossible…

Monday morning brought with it a very special day for a certain cherry blossom. She woke up to find a package on her desk. It was from her father. Sakura ripped open the first layer of the package to find a card.

Dear Sakura,

We're sorry that we couldn't be there for your birthday, but we sent you something extra special this year to make up for it. Use it wisely, and use it well.

Love,

Mom & Dad

Sakura squealed happily. 'What'd he send this year?' she thought excitedly. Ripping away the last layer of wrapping, her jaw dropped. She picked up the object that had been previously encased in the colorful wrapping paper.

"WHAT THE FUCK!" she screeched. "WHAT THE FUCK AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH A DAMN FRISBEE!" She eyed it skeptically. 'I'll just pawn it off on Sasuke,' she thought.

As soon as Sakura got to school, she saw Sasuke and Neji on the grounds. Walking up to them, she smiled awkwardly, shoving the Frisbee into Sasuke's hands.

He eyed it suspiciously before asking, "Alright, Pinky. What have you done to this thing."

"Nothing," she said honestly. "It was a gift my dad sent me for my birthday, but I don't want it. I don't play Frisbee. So I thought you'd appreciate it more than I can." Sasuke smirked, then proceeded to throw the Frisbee as hard as he could across the grounds. The Frisbee vanished from sight and Sasuke and Neji turned to each other, whispering. Sakura paled, then tapped them both on their shoulders.

"What do you want!" they snapped. She pointed in the direction that Sasuke had thrown the Frisbee, and they gawked. Unfortunately for Neji, it nailed him in the middle of his forehead and he toppled over. Sasuke had thrown the damn thing very hard, and they were downwind of the throw, so the velocity had doubled the impact. Poor Neji.

Sasuke and Sakura both stared at the blue monster Frisbee, and Sakura turned to Sasuke after a while had passed. She grinned before speaking her mind.

"Heh. Wow. Thanks, Sasuke!" she exclaimed. "You made my job easier! I dunno how you got it to do that, but that was hilarious!" Sakura jumped up, giving Sasuke a friendly peck on the cheek, picked up the Frisbee, then pranced to their next class. Sasuke stood there gawking as Neji started to wake up. Neji clutched his forehead with one hand, and Sasuke's wrist in the other, dragging the confused boy behind him as he headed to class.

Sliding into their seats, Kurenai began her Social Studies lesson, which everyone promptly tuned out. Halfway through the lesson, Kurenai happily introduced Haku, and Sakura was kind to him. He was a crossdresser, but she had been brought up better than to judge by that. He was a sweet guy. Very formal, a bit too polite most of the time, and a bit odd, but she could live with it. He was her neighbor, after all, so making an enemy of him would be very unwise…

At lunch, Haku sat alone and Sakura went over to him. She was holding the Frisbee, and all day it had been sending these creepy chills down her spine, like it was an evil all its own…

"Hey, Haku," she asked and he looked at her, then at the Frisbee and frowned. This girl got weirder every day… "Do you mind taking this Frisbee?" If Haku had been a little less well mannered, he might have fallen over anime-style at the ridiculous request, but as he was, he merely took the blue toy, looked at it, then threw it outside.

Sakura slapped her forehead. 'Not a wise choice, Haku,' she thought sadly. 'Ah, well. If Neji gets a concussion, it ain't my damn fault.' As if he wanted to get clobbered by the evil Frisbee from hell, Neji chose that moment to step in front of Sakura, asking where in seven hells her father had found a Frisbee that was so bloodthirsty. On cue, the Frisbee came soaring back in and Sakura's eyes went wide. Neji noticed and turned to look behind him. He saw a blue blur, and then it hit him.

'That Frisbee has perfect aim…' Sakura thought as Neji was again hit squrely on his forehead and was then bowled over on top of her, clearly out cold. A domino effect ensued, and when Neji fell on Sakura, she fell on Haku. 'Goddammit!' Sakura raged inwardly, giving the Frisbee, which had landed about a foot away from her, the evil eye and the finger. 'I'm pretty strong for someone of my size, but in this position, I don't have any leverage to push him off!' Haku twitched a bit and she turned her head slightly to give him an pitying look before apologizing softly.

"Gomen nasai, Haku," she whispered, before her look turned into one of determination. "Dammit Neji!" she yelled at his unconscious form. "Snap the fucking hell out of it!" He began to wake up and she felt relief wash over her. "Finally!" Sakura said excitedly. "Now get the hell off of me so that Haku and I can get up!" His white eyes peered blankly at her, obviously still dazed from the beat down the Frisbee had given him.

Sakura pouted, then stuck her tongue out at him. His eyes narrowed as they focused on her face, and he frowned, then got up carefully, standing back as Sakura got up and helped Haku up as well. Sakura bowed politely to Haku, apologizing furiously. He shrugged it off and walked away, very confused. Either her father was the devil, or that toy was possessed… Sakura stood, picking up the Frisbee catiously, as though she were afraid that it would bite her.

"Stupid evil Frisbee," she muttered. She squeaked as she felt Neji's arms go around her waist, tightening and pulling her to him, and she looked at him. His eyes were still narrowed, but he was smirking as well. He leaned in towards her ear.

"Are you sure it was the Frisbee's fault, Sakura?" he asked. Sakura nodded.

"I may be at war with you," she said, "but I wouldn't stoop so low as to cause you physical pain. …Well at least not on purpose."

"Are you sure?" he hissed.

"Yeah, you suspicious bastard, I am!" she replied.

"Then prove it," he said. "Take the Frisbee and burn it. Exorcise it."

"That only works in books, movies, Tv shows, comics, and cartoons," she scoffed. "But I will burn it, thought I won't do it at home. Burnt plastic doesn't smell very good, and it gets messy when it melts." Neji nodded.

"Then lets burn it together," he suggested. "We can burn it in the northern clearing of the woods behind the school."

"Works for me," Sakura replied. "But why do you want to come? Don't you trust me to stick to my word and burn it?"

Neji shrugged. "I trust you," he said, "but that evil little blue monster got me twice, right in the middle of my forehead, and I'd be damned if I missed seeing it's demise." Sakura nodded.

"So what time should we meet there by?" she asked.

"10:00 PM tonight," Neji replied. He released her, and they both went to their next class.

Seventh chapter! Sorry I took so long, and the chapter didn't meet my promise, but I got grounded yesterday and today from my computer, and I'm risking discovery right now! I'll try to move on faster, and besides, my inspiration for this chapter came today in PE. That Frisbee tried to kill me! It nearly lopped my head off!
