Sakura felt the grip tighten on her. She could feel the soft breathing behind her, in truth, she wasn't all that scared. Sakura felt safe, she felt like everything might be okay after all. Her breath calmed down a little as the person let go of her a little, but still held on.
"Don't be so scared, it's only a blackout." Sakura listened to the stranger talk.
"It's not that, it's who i'm with.." Sakura mumbled.
She heard the person chuckle a little, then hearing his voice talk again, "If I tell you, you wouldn't want to stay in my arms."
Sakura's eyes widened. She started to sense fear over coming her now. Everything was so dark, and she was alone. Of course, she couldn't see whose hands she was in. The person[yeah, we know who he is, but bear w/ me] started to sense fear in Sakura and started to just to hug even more.
"Don't worry, "He whispered softly to her. His voice going against her ear. "I won't hurt you, just stay like this for a little longer, and then."
"What?" Sakura asked the stranger.
"..nothing."
_kiba and the two other pplz_
"...this is a long stairway..."
"Ergh..what did I do to deserve this?"
"...."
"Hey..I think I can smell Sakura!!!"
"Where is she?"
"She should be up the stairs into the hallway.."
"Descriptive aren't we?"
"..."
"Hey, Sasuke? You alright?"
"Neji, you and Kiba stay here."
"hm?"
"He's nearby..I can sense him!"
"Sasuke, wait! Crap, Kiba, come on!!"
"Don't make it seem like your the leader!!"
_Sakura_
"...hey." Sakura asked to her stranger. She wanted to know something about the guy, it was extremely uncomfortable being in the dark with someone you know, and their quiet.
"Hm?" Sakura heard the muffled reply.
"Just how, did you get to my house? How do you know where I live?" Sakura questioned.
She felt the girp tighten a little around her. "Because I know everyhting about you Sakura."
"But...why?"
"You can say I'm very fond of you. I only intened to watch someone else train, then you came. At first I thought you were pathetic, but then..."
Sakura fel the awkward silence, and mentally begged he kept talking. Thankfully, she heard him continue on.
"I felt myself watching you more and more. I decided to make my move, then I realized, that this "obsession" was getting in the way of my training."
"..you sound just like a person I know."
"Hm? Really."
"Yeah, he's a guy that just wants to train, so he blocks out all emotions. So that noone can get to him." Sakura cried under her breath. Not noticing the watchful gaze from the stranger.
"That's just the way we are..."
"Way we are....?"
"Us last survivors of the Uchiha Clan.."
Sakura suddenly gaped and tried to break free now. She was scared, really scared. Sakura thoguht only Sasuke was the only survivor. Was he lying? No, she did hear him mention something, but if that's true. This guy killed the Uchiha Clan. The grip on Sakura only strengthened, as Sakura struggled to get free.
"I won't hurt you, please, I promise that." The person said to her, trying to calm her down.
Sakura soon found the guts to relax a little. Still, she could feel fear building inside of her. "B-but, were you also the person who murdered those people?"
"If I keep talking to you, you'll only run away from me."
"..just..who are you then?"
"Uchiha, Itachi."
_naruto Ten Ten Lee_
"Eh?" Naruto looked up from the couch he was standing on, yes, standing on. He looked up at the flickering light.
"Hey, the lights are coming back on!!!" Ten Ten exclaimed, still clinging onto the lamp she was going to use to kill Naruto after the hair incident.
"..is Sakura san alright?" Lee asked himself.
"No worries, she has Neji and Sasuke coming after her. Oh yeah, and dog boy." Naruto said then he plopped himself on the couch. All three of them looked to the cieling and watched as the lights went back on.
_sakura_
"The lights! The're back on!!!" Sakura excalimed she quickly jumped up and happily jumped around.
Itachi stared at her for a little while, then decided to make his esacpe. He felt a little tug at his shirt, looking down he saw Sakura.
"u..uhm, are you leaving?" Sakura mumbled.
"Heh, I have no choice now do I?" Itachi was about to make his way out of the window when a shuriken hit nest to his hand.
Sakura and Itachi immediately looked back and saw...
Sasuke kun!" Sakura said joyfully.
"Sakura! Get over here!!" Sasuke called to her.
"Hm? Why?" Sakura asked.
"Sasuke you idiot! Don't go running off!!" Kiba yelled. He and Neji quickly ran over to Sasuke. After seeing Itachi, Neji took out a kunai.
"Dear little brother, I have no time to play with you today." Itachi taunted over to Sasuke.
"Sakura! I said get over here!" Sasuke yelled again.
"..but.." Sakura looked over to Itachi who just gave a slight smile before climbing back inside.
"Fine, you have five minutes." Itachi said to Sasuke.
Sasuke closed his eyes and then activated Sharigan, Neji did the same, only he summoned Byakugan. All three were getting ready to fight. Kiba quickly ran over to Sakura and stood in front of her. Then taking her hand and pulling her away from Itachi.
"Keh, this battle will be intresting now." Kiba said.
"Hey! But, why do they have to fight? And why in my house?!" Sakura called to Kiba.
"Geez, I'm right here you know." Kiba said while rubbing his ears. "Anyways, this is a battle of this years number one rookie, last year's number one rookie, and probably some year's number one rookie."
"That means.."
"It's going to be an intense battle, we better get Naruto and them and head out." Kiba grabbed Sakura's wrists and ran downstairs with arguing Sakura. While he ran he yelled over to Sasuke and Neji, "Just don't ruin the house! I don't wanna be the one in charge of the money!!"
"Give us five minutes." Sasuke said.
"I thought you'd known better Sasuke, never underestimate your enemy." Itachi called.
"But..what's going on?" Sakura asked herself.
"Neji! I don't want your help!" Sasuke yelled.
"Shut up, I'm not here for you, look outside." Neji said.
Sasuke took a glance outside the window and saw, Ino, Chouji, Shikamru, Shinno and Hinata waiting, and just talking there.
"I see, you want to protect Hinata?" Sasuke asked.
"It's the Hyuga Branch's duty." Neji simply said.
"Fine, but don't get in my way!"
..and they were off....
