*cry* I failed my recital :'( I messed up before I started, cause I forgot the first few notes. then I couldn't remember them, so i just continued. the first ten notes were ABSOLUTE CRAP. *goes to emo corner*

Anyways, I'm sure you don't want to here me talk about the recital too much. Here's the next chapter!

Sazuko POV

"We're back!" I cried through my house door. Ryu, Gaara, Temari, Sasori and Hirako were behind me. Yeah, I saw my sis when I was coming home. And called the Sabaku's to meet me outside of the mall. Temari had her fan already, since I built together in that "underground shop" as Ryu called it.

"Finally, un!" Deidara dashed over to us, away from Tobi. Poor kid was getting harassed by Deidara.

"Fooooooooood..." Zetsu came over to us. I guess he smelled the McDonalds chicken nuggets. Yup, he only eats meat, so I had to by 50 pieces for Zetsu alone. What a waste of money.

"Hey, Sasori-danna!" Deidara ran up to the red head. "Why're you back? I thought you were staying at Kankuro's, un!"

"Do you not want me to come back?" Sasori asked in his cold voice.

After a few moments of silence passing between the two Akatsuki members, I cleared my throat. "Let's eat!"

"Yay!" Tobi jumped over to us, grabbed some food, and started nibbling on it like a rabbit.

"Aww...Tobi!" I hugged the mask wearing kid. "You're so cute when you do that!"

Instantly, I felt an evil aura behind me. Unsurprisingly, it was Gaara.

Ryu started laughing. Probably because he read Gaara's emotions. Unlike Ryu, I can only sense emotions like a normal person. However, Ryu can instantly tell what they're feeling, regardless if they show it or not. Don't you just love his ability? Great when you want to hide a secret, eh?

"Dammit..." I whispered. "Gaara, don't kill anyone! Please!"

"Whatever..." He stalked into the house, up the stairs, and into my room. Which he technically owns now.

Suddenly, my phone rang. Home phone, not cell.

"Divide the food amongst yourselves, I'm going to go pick it up." I dashed towards the nearest phone.

"Hello?"

"Sazuko?"

"Ms. Tsunade?"

"Yes. Is Gaara, Temari, and Kankuro with you?"

"Yeah."

"Good. You and Gaara will be returning to school tomorrow."

"But Ms. Tsunade! He-"

"I know. Don't worry, he should be okay by now. Oh, and he will be having an assessment on his skills. As well as his siblings. Tomorrow."

"...Okay, Ms. Tsunade..."

"That will be all. Have a good night, Sazuko."

"You too, Ms. Tsunade." I hung up, then let out a deep breath. Time to start training again.

That was a short chapter, I just thought I should get this story back onto high school again :P If I didn't, this story might've been un-high school related.
