Chapter 9: Friday Night Lights Out

All of the cheerleaders, including Shai, were putting final touches on for the prep rally; fixing make up, applying more glitter, hair spraying the inside of their uniforms so it didn't ride up, etc. once finished Shai gathered the girls in a circle, "All right guys we are going to run the performance once before the actual thing and I better not catch any mistakes at all. We have been practicing this for weeks now; there is no excuses for mistakes!" The girls all got in their positions as Shai stood in front of them facing towards all of the girls. "5, 6, 7, 8!" the girls all began the performance, marking all of the basket tosses and lifts that considered Shai.

At the end Shai's eyes narrowed at Ino, "Ino, you purposely did all of that terribly." Ino grinned and shrugged before saying, "I have no idea what you're talking about captain." Then Ino leaned into Shai and whispered, "I'm going to get you demoted as captain. I had just got that spot and I'm not willing to give it up that easily." Shai rolled her eyes, "All right ladies, since Ino thinks that her performing terrible will get me demoted we are ALL going to do squats until I say stop." Everyone's eyes narrowed at Ino. Shai got in position, "5, 6, 7, 8!" All of the girls began doing the squats and after fifty Shai spoke up, "Good ladies take a water break and stretch your muscles out, the prep rally starts in ten!"

The principle came onto the microphone, "Welcome to KHS's first prep rally!" The crowd began to cheer wildly. The cheerleaders sat in the backwards 'Z' position and clapped with class. Then the principle spoke up, "First up is the KHS dance squad!" The KHS dance squad seriously needed some help, the entire performance made Shai flinch. Once they were done they exited, and the principle cleared his throat, "Wasn't that…uh…great!?" The entire crowd was silent, the principle cleared his throat again, "And now the award winning KHS cheerleading squad, Captain this year is junior Shai Uzumaki and Co-Captain is Sakura Haruno!" The girls got up and looked at Shai. Once the principle was out of the way she nodded.

All of the girls ran and did a cartwheel before beginning a series of backflips. On the last backflip the girls froze before Shai counted off, "5, 6, 7, 8!" All of the girls started the cheer first, "K-H-S bring the house down on all the rest! K-H-S takes that trash out and comes out the best!" Then all of the girls got in formation as the fast paced music started the girls all began the dance part of their routine all in sync. Then came the scorpion lift which Shai, Sakura, and Kushina were at the top of all three girls were lifted in the air and balanced before bringing their back legs up to touch their head and extend up before letting their legs into an Arabesque. The bases all got ready for dismount and tossed the girls who all flipped and landed in the basket. They did another small dance section before the moment of truth came, the star twist flip basket toss. Shai got into all of their arms as they prepped her by moving their arms up and down. They then flung Shai high in the air, Shai did the stunt easily; the crowds stood and cheered. But when it came time for all of them to catch her Ino stepped out and began to do her own thing. "SHIT!" Coach Mikoto Uchiha yelled and covered her face. There were now not enough girls to catch Shai. Shai didn't even know it was coming; she plummeted to hit the ground, instantly becoming unconscious. Ino tried acting shocked for the crowd as Naruto jumped over the safety rail in his jersey yelling Shai's name in a panic. Coach Mikoto Uchiha immediately yelled, "SOMEONE CALL 911!" Ino backed away slowly and Itachi grabbed her long hair and yanked her back. Coach Mikoto looked up from Shai to Ino, clearly pissed off, "Ino, you're OFF the squad. Turn in your uniforms Monday."

Just then the ambulance arrived with a gurney rushing in to Shai. Once Shai was on the gurney they began wheeling her away. Fugaku began to yell as Naruto ran after the gurney, "UZUMAKI YOU HAVE A GAME TO PLAY!" Naruto looked back, "Put my stand in for me, this is my twin!" Itachi also ran after her but the EMT stopped him, "Family only kid, sorry." Itachi nodded and looked at his mother with tear filled eyes. Mikoto sighed, "Come here my big baby…" Itachi ran into her arms and began sobbing, "Mom I have to go to the hospital, please." He pleaded to her and she nodded, "Go, I will handle your father.

Itachi quickly took off and Mikoto walked up to Fugaku who was seething, "That's three of my best players gone including Deidara." Mikoto sighed, "This is the first time I have seen Itachi so worried about a single female… He's in love Fugaku…"
