Sanashii: YO! How is everyone? I really hope you like this chapter too. REVIEW PEOPLE!

Sakura: You got 35 reviews isn't that enough?

Sanashii: NO! I WANT MORE REVIEWS!

Sakura: Sheesh. You are like a two year old.

Sanashii: IM NOT!...Hey where's Naruto? Is he okay? I mean I punched him so hard...

Sakura: He's fine. I just said 'ramen' and he practically jumped to the ceiling.

Sanashii: *sweatdropps* I see...

Sakura: Read and review!


Next morning, Sakura met up with her two teammates early to train.(Actually, she dragged them out of the bed by pounding on the door and forced them to get ready and leave to train.)

While training, Naruto whispered to Sasuke. "Psst. Sasuke. I miss the old Sakura chan, don't you?" He asked. Sasuke glared. He still wasn't happy about the nearly-kiss incident yesterday. He was pretty lucky Sakura was so cool about it later.

"I don't know. I like both. This one is better...I guess." He answered, unknowingly admitting he did like her.

As they were all doing push-up's at the moment, Naruto fell down and landed on his belly at what Sasuke said. He then picked himself up quickly.

"AAH HAHA! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT! AHAHAHAHA! YOU DO LIKE SAKURA CHAN! HAHAHA!" He yelled laughing. Sasuke was tomato red while Sakura had a dumbfounded look on he face.

"What?" Sakura asked. As Naruto opened is mouth, Sasuke gave a chilling glare. "Um...nothing." Naruto replied shivering. Kakashi grinned.

"Well...don't I sense a cupid in this area?" he said. "Sakura and Sasuke have finally learnt to LOVE!" This made Sakura go 10 shades of red as she remembered the...nearly kiss incident...

"Chaa!" she shrieked punching Kakashi on his stomach which...of course sent him flying through the air.

"Oops." She murmured.

Sasuke smirked. "You forgot you have insane strenght...AGAIN." He said. Sakura slumped her shoulders. "KAKASHI SENSEI! PROMISE YOU'LL BE OKAY AND I'LL GIVE YOU MONEY TO BUY A NEW SERIES OF ICHA ICHA PARADISE!" She yelled.

At once Kakashi stood up straight. Even though it was obvious his tummy was hurting bad. "I'm okay! Gimme the money!" He said rushing over.

Sakura sweatdropped. "Seriously?" She muttered giving him the money. Sasuke smirked while Naruto grinned. "Oh Sakura chan! Can we meet your new uh..." Naruto started.

"Guardian?" Sakura completed. Sasuke nodded. Kakashi, meanwhile went off to buy his porn...

Sakura smiled. "Okay. Yukiko chan will be free today I guess. Makoto is still sleeping while Hitomi chan went to train too and..." She said.

"CAN WE MEET THEM FIRST? I DON'T KNOW WHO THE HELL MAIKOTO OR YUMIKO IS!" Naruto yelled. Sasuke punched him. "Idiot! Don't yell at her!" He shouted. Sakura blushed slightly and smiled. "Um...can we go?" She asked.


(At Sakura's house...new house.)


"Woaah!" The two boys said. The house was more like a mansion, pure japanese style, complete with a traditional garden and a HUGE training area. Sakura smiled and opened the door.

They were surprised as it was dark inside. Sasuke froze when he saw a pair of glistening silver, cat-like eyes in the dark. With a yell, the creature pounced at Sakura. As Naruto clicked on the light, he saw that it was actually a little kid...with long white hair with a bluish tinge and silver eyes.

"MOMMY! YOU CAME!" She squealed. "Makoto! You scared me! Sheesh." Sakura said hugging her. "Why did you close all windows and the curtains?" Makoto grinned. "I was meditating until I heard you and thought of giving you a scare." She replied.

Sasuke twitched his eye. "MOMMY?" She yelled. Makoto stuck her tongue out. Sakura shook her head. "Nah she just calls me that..." She said quickly.

Naruto pointed to Makoto. "So this pipsqueak is your guardian then?" He asked. At once, Makoto pounced on him and started clawing on his face. "YAII! STOP! OWW!" Naruto yelled.

Sakura and Sasuke pried her off him. Makoto grinned sheepishly. "Sorry. My inner demon is a 10 tailed cat so I am pretty cat-like as you can see." She said.

Sasuke observed her looks. She was certainly cat-like. Her nails were pointed slighty and her dracular teeth were longer than normal. Also, she had the instinct of one.

"MAKOTO! DID SAKURA RETURN YET?" A voice called and a girl with brown hair and gold eyes came down the stairs. "Sakura!" She squealed hugging her.

"Hi Hitomi. Guys. This is Hitomi Yashimuko. She was supposed to be my friend in my childhood before we seperated." Sakura introduced her. "Nice to meet you! You must be Sasuke san and Naruto san!" Hitomi said.

Sasuke raised an eyebrow. Hitomi giggled. "Sakura talks a lot about you." She said.

Sakura kicked her. "As introduction." She muttered turning red.

"Where is Yukiko sensei?" Hitomi rubbed her leg. "Left a while ago. She'll be back." She said.

Naruto eyed Hitomi. "You look...weird." He murmured. A vein popped on her head. "WHAT DID YOU SAY YOU DOPE?" Hitomi screamed. "WHO'RE YOU CALLING A DOPE YOU WEIRDO!" Naruto screamed back. "WELL YOU'RE JUST SHORT!" Hitomi screamed again.

Naruto growled. "LET ME AT HER! LET ME AT HER!" He yelled running towards her with his fist clenched. Sasuke and Sakura grabbed his jacket and stopped him before any serious damage could be done...to the house.

"Oh my! So much has happened while I was out." A mysterious voice said. Everyone looked around and saw no one. "Look up." The voice instructed.

As everyone looked up, they saw a woman hanging upside down from the ceiling. She was covered in all black and only her eyes were shown. She had a black belt, and gloves along with the ninja stealth costume.

"Yukiko sensei! Don't do that!" Sakura said goosebumps sppearing on her skin. Yukiko jumped down and closed her lavender eyes. "How many times do I have to tell you not to call me sensei?" She asked.

"A million." Sakura replied. "Sorry. I keep on forgetting." Yukiko inhaled deeply and let the air out again. "Who are these two boys?" She asked pointing to Naruto and Sasuke.

"They're my teammates and friends." Sakura replied. Yukiko raised an eyebrow at Sasuke. "Is that your boyfriend? I guess your a couple huh?" She asked.

Sakura and Sasuke turned red. "NO!" The two yelled.

"DUCK BUTT IS DEFINITELY MY ENEMY!"

"I WOULD SOONER DROWN MYSELF THAN DATE HER!"

"OH YEAH? I'LL BEHEAD MYSELF!"

"I'LL SUFFOCATE MYSELF!"

"I'LL HOLD MY BREATH AND COUNT TO FIVE HUNDRED!"

"YOU'LL DIE BEFORE THAN IDIOT!"

"THATS THE POINT!"

Yukiko closed her eyes. "DO they ALWAYS do this?" She asked. Naruto patted her arm. "That question is better left unanswered." He muttered.

Makoto sighed and plopped down on the couch. "Yeah. You two are like two monsters ready to rip each other apart." -insert the now fighting Sakura and Sasuke-

"Hey you might kiss her again." Naruto commented.

"YAAATAAAA!" Sakura punched Sasuke into the air. "WATER! AIR! I NEED BOTH!" She ran upstairs.

Sasuke sat down indian style, rubbing his cheek and redder than a lobster that had been deep friend, covered with tomato sauce and ( well you get the point...)

Yukiko eyed him curiously. "So is this thing one sided love or something?" She asked. Sasuke looked away not wanting to answer.

"I'll take that as a yes." Hitomi grinned.

"Silence for Sasuke means shut-up-or-I-will-murder-the-whole-universe-with-a-deathray-gun." Naruto commented cheekily.

"Shut up Naruto." Sasuke muttered.

"Make me."

"I'll destroy your ramen."

"Okay I'm a good boy now." Naruto sat down.

Makoto glanced at her wristwatch (which came our of nowhere) and then upstairs. "She's taking way too long to get some air and water." She said.

"No I think she meant some time alone in her dark corner." Hitomi said quietly.

"Dark corner?" The two boys asked.

"It's a name we give to the corner of the room she always sits nowadays while switching the lights off when she is upset, worried, confused or sad. Mainly sad." Yukiko explained.

"Oh...the clan thing is still taking its toll on her?" Naruto asked.

"Yeah.." Yukiko answered.

No sooner she said this, Sakura came down...still with a strange look on her face. "I'm okay.." She muttered.

"SAKURA AND SASUKE SITTING IN A TREE. K-I-S-S-I-N-G!" Naruto and Makoto sang.

The two named people turn red once again.

"OH LOOK WHATS THE TIME? I have to go er..help the hokage with er..STUFF!" Sakura ran out.

"Me too! I have to er...help Kakashi..um...cross the road of life!" Sasuke said and ran out, both in opposite directions.

"AWW HOW CUTE! YOUNG LOVE!" Hitomi squealed.

"You do realize you and Sakura are the same age." Naruto pointed out.

"Yeah. Say...I got an idea." She said quietly.

"Yeah?" Naruto asked.

"LETS DO SOME MATCHMAKING!" Makoto yelled. Yukiko shook her head. "NO WAY." She said going out.

The three clung on her foot. "PLEEEEEEEASE!" They whined.

"No."

"WE ARE BEGGING!"

"No."

"WE WILL DO ANYTHING!"

"No."

"WE WILL BRUSH YOUR FEEET!"

"No."

"WE WILL SCRUB YOUR NAILS!"

"No."

"WE WILL MAKE YOUR BED!"

"No."

"WE WILL DO ANYTHINGGG!"

"What part of no don't you kids understand?"

"EVERTHING!" Naruto yelled. Suddenly Hitomi did a sneaky smile. "If you don't help us...I'll threaten you!" She said.

"Ooh I'm very scared." Yukiko muttered walking away.

"WHATS HIS NAME? SPELL IT WEASEL PEOPLE! I-T-A-C-" Makoto started to yell.

"Okay! Okay! I'll help!" Yukiko said shaking her hands.

"Is that the name of your crush?" Naruto asked. Yukiko looked away. Hitomi grinnned. "Sure is! But the sad thing is...he doesn't even know she exists!" Hitomi sighed.

"Look do you want me to help or not?" Yukiko asked impatiently.

"We do! Just let me get help from the others! Then we'll eat ramen!" Naruto yelled running off.

"That boy...is he ADHD?"

"I don't know." Makoto muttered.
