For my neighbor is letting me use her computer so get ready for some intense chapters I'll be working on all day. -takes a bow- thank you thank you for all your reviews!!! I smiled so big I think I broke my smiling muscle. Ahahaha. And a BIG THANKS to my neighbor for allowing me to use her computer. ON WITH ZEE CHAPTERS!!!
I didn't go to school the next day. I wasn't sick, and I didn't want to stay home. Lord knows I deeply wanted to see Gaara. No I was waiting in the household library for my grandmother that morning who had told me to stay there until she returned. I sat there at a maple desk, tapping my fingers against the surface of the smooth wood to a steady beat of the soft melody of my mother's song that lingered in my thoughts. Some of the head maids where there, dusting the shelves and reorganizing the books, but in the back of my head i wondered if they where actually babysitting me while my grandmother was gone. I sighed, and focused my emerald eye's onto the table, following the lines of the wood, until i drew a map of the twists and turn, and the ends of the texture. I could feel all the information register into my short term memories. As soon as I lifted my eye's from the pattern embedded in the wood, the memory of it would vanish. Unless i focused on it harder and registered it into my long term memory, but the pattern in a wooden table wasn't something i needed to remember. I looked up as my grandmother turned the handle and closed the door.
"Sakura I made absolutely no noise, how on earth do you do that?" One of the maids jumped in her place, obviously none of them had been aware that my grandmother had entered the room. Great, now the whole house knows i have super freaky hearing. Yippee. I shrugged at my grandmother, unable to give her an answer. She walked over gracefully, her high-heels now clicking loudly against the tile. I raised a pastel pink eyebrow.
"How anyone can make so little noise in those things is unbelievable." My grandmother gave one of her knowing smiles, that I had become accustom to in these few days with her. She always knew something i obviously didn't.
"Oh i'm sure you could do it deary. It's just a simple shift of weight." I stared at the sharp heel for a second.
"Well i guess they'd pack a bigger punch than flats and sneakers." My grandmother laughed and patted my cheek.
"Such a sense of humor." I just gave her a bland look that said I'm serious. And honestly I had been. She sat down across from me as she always did at dinner, and folded her hands together.
"We have a situation. We're going to have to take your records out of school completely for a bit, and we're going to have to make it seem as though you weren't here. Your going to have to talk to your friends and give them an excuse of your choice. Luckily no one knows we're related other than a few students and the principle. Principle Kakashi, had once worked for me, and he kept your profile on the download in case something like this were to happen. The teachers gratefully never really knew who you lived with. We just have to find a way for your friends to keep quite. Who all knows Sakura?"
"Wait, gran, whats going on exactly?"
"Just answer the question, it's important." Instantly Gaara, and Temari flashed through my mind, but I knew Temari wouldn't ever tell anyone where I lived if she didn't trust them. If she didn't care about my safety she wouldn't have came to stop Gaara. I don't believe Gaara would want anyone around me either.
"The only ones I've ever told where Ino and Tenten. I don't think they've told anyone, because even Naruto and Hinata don't know." I felt a stab of guilt at not telling my other friends where i lived. I trusted them, I guess it just hadn't come up yet.
"Gran whats going on, are my friends in trouble?"
"No no, they're fine, it's you who's in trouble. Well, actually we may have caught this in time. Once i take out your records of being in school, you may have nothing to worry about, as long as we take away your citizenship for good and erase all of your records you'll be fine. But this takes some time, and I'm affraid we only have nine day's. You see, Suna's government is making an alliance with Konoha, and that means Konoha has access to our records. Your mom knows too, i already contacted her and told her I had everything under control so.."
"You contacted her as in you sent someone out to give her the message, or as in you called her?"
"The first one, calling her could lead the government to you, if they're still keeping tabs on her. They know who your mom is and where she is you know. they followed her records of her changed names, and her locations. The name she changed here may still have them clueless as to where she is for now, but it's best we take every precaution we can." I nodded, pretending that i didn't know the information my grandmother was still hiding.
"But isn't sending someone to her dangerous too?" My grandmother waved my inquiries away.
"Don't worry about that for now. She's in good hands, believe you me. What we need to worry about right now, is getting you to contact your friends and telling them something." She threw a Iphone into my lap.
"I heard these are in popular demand." I stared at the device in my lap, unsure of what to say. Sure I had gotten gifts before from my mom and dad, but this was my grandmother. A woman i still hardly knew, and a woman who didn't much like physical contact. Which, is something we both shared.
"I honestly don't know what to say..."She smiled, and at that point i was extremely grateful we both hated sappy moments because then she got up and clapped her hands.
"Okay let's get to work. Sakura, you go out and enjoy some fresh air outside, because you may not be allowed out to much if any of Suna's government officials decide to come here. Your hair and eye's are too noticeable." She laughed, and i laughed to, because it's something you do in an awkward moment like this.
"Now Clarise, Marissa, I need you to watch after the house hold, while I go and settle some things." She winked at me and swept out of the room.
I stared at the maids for a minute, realization overwhelming me.
"You guys work for my grandmother."
They blinked as if it was the stupidest statement they'd ever heard.
"No I mean, you guys are agents for her aren't you?" They put their finger's to their mouths and nodded. So that's why Gran let them stay in here while we talked. They shooed me out of the house, and I found myself in the forest again searching around for Kiba. I took a look through my Iphone, looking through the contacts. My grandmother had the list of all my friends on the contacts list with their number. I scrunched my face, and was about to delete Sasuke, until i got a brilliant idea. I texted Ino.
Hey Ino it's Sakura. I got a new phone. I'll explain things to you later on the phone. How would you like Sasuke's number?
I laughed. That's what Sasuke got for being a self conceded ignorant bastard.
Hell y3a Id lov3 it!
I sent her the number telling her to look in a yellow-pages book next time, and hoped she'd forward the number to every Sasuke fan in school. I looked at the other features in my phone and came across a dog whistle. Dog whistle eh?
I pressed the button, and immediately regretted it. I yelped, and dropped my phone into the leaves below my, pressing my hands over my piercing ears, the noise cutting through. Shit how do i turn it off. I balanced myself onto one foot and focused the best i can through the pounding pain searing through my head, and pressed the tip of my foot against the screen, hitting the button to turn it off. I sighed, removing my hands from my ears, and trying to relax myself.
"What the fuck was that all about."
"That's what I'd like to know." I turned around facing Kiba who had just answered my hypothetical question. Except it wasn't Kiba, it was a giant brown wolf, the size of a damn polar bear, and he hadn't said anything out loud at all, he had spoken to me inside of my thoughts.
"Kiba, how the hell did you get into my head?"
"Sakura I already told you, those who descended down from the original pack, can still emerge into the spirit world and keep in contact with on another,"
"Well then how in the fuck does that include me? In case you haven't noticed, I'm not a werewolf."
"I'll explain everything, better yet Akira will explain everything, just get onto my back really fast." Kiba's wolf head turned back, his snout somewhat pointing towards his back. I rolled my eye's, and grabbed my phone before scrambling on top of his back the best i could. I grabbed two fist-fulls of tousled hair.
"All right, furry butt express all aboard." And with my sarcastic remark, the tree's around me flashed behind me, and couldn't make out where i was. The tree's i knew, where flying past me, but it looked like we were running through a deep brown hallway with an occasional splotch of green, as the tree trunks meshed together in my view. I definitely didn't know Kiba enough to know if he would kill me, and i had no clue as to where we were going, but i knew as long as my instinct hadn't sensed any danger, i was fine with going with the flow. A morning with a werewolf. How bad could that be compared to a morning sitting in you room, texting Ino about how how she thought Sasuke was. In fact, Ino was more threatening than a werewolf.
