Chappie 4: FALLING FOR THE ENEMY!?
Sakura laid on her bed looking at a map of the city. Her room was an off-white color with a pink bed. Simple.
"Hmmm..." Sakura thought out loud. "Warehouse on 5th avenue eh? Where the heck is that!?" She continued to lick the popcicle that was in her hand. She gazed at the map carefully. Minding every word and sign. She groaned. "This is sooo useless. I'll never catch him. I have no idea where it is! And I have to find out by tonight!" She got up and peered out her window. She saw the busy people, and children happily playing in the street.
In fustration Sakura bit her popcicle. "AHH!!!!" She screamed. "B- brain freeze...." Everyone in the street looked around for the scream.
Embarassed, Sakura ran downstairs to figure out what her mom was doing.
"Hey mom!" Sakura said coming into the kitchen. "Whats up?"
"Oh hon, lookie what I got in the mail!" Her mom hurried to heave a big box on the dining table. "Its for you! Found it by the mail box."
Sakura looked at the box suspicously. "Who's it from?"
"It doesn't say dear. Do you know anyone who would give you this?"
Sakura thought. Its probably a bomb from Itachi. Or maybe not.
"Only one way to find out mom...."
She ripped the boxes side but suddenly stopped. "Mom, what if its like one of those guns that pop out when you open it?"
Her mom looked at her. "Well... Open it while your ducking dear." She giggled.
"This is not a joke mom!" Sakura glanced at the box again. "But that could be our only solution...."
She did as her mother told her and ducked while she felt around the box to open it. She couldn't see a thing. When she finally got it open her mother started laughing.
"What is it mom? Laughing gas?"
"No dear! Look!"
Sakura got up and looked inside the box. She saw a Japanese school girl sailor uniform. "What the hell!?"
"Watch you mouth dear. It must be you school uniform! Oh! Its so cute! Put it on dear!"
Sakura blushed as she held it up. "Mom! You see how revealing this is?" The skirt was pretty short. It was way above the knees. No sleeves either.
"You'd look so cute! I had one of those uniforms when I was your age! I loved it. You have those cute lil legs I had, you'll be fine dear. All those boys...Oh, hows your little buddy Sasuke dear doing?"
Sakura blushed. "MOM! Don't talk about him!"
"But he's such a cute little boy! When are you going to bring his cute lil butt home?"
"MOM!"
"Okay okay dear. Lordy. Go try on your uniform. You'll be wearing it until winter."
Sakura sighed. At least her mom wasn't a teacher. She's more embarassing than Ino's.
She was in her room looking at her black sailor uniform. "I'm not sailor moon....*sigh* This bites." She glanced at a few more angles of her uniform. "I would love the attention from boys though..."
"SAKURA!!" Sakura looked around to find out who was calling her. It was from the window.
She looked out the window at the ground. It was Ino.
"Hey Ino whats up?"
Ino was wearing her uniform. She twirled. "What do you think?"
Sakuras eyes lit up. "Its beautiful on you Ino!"
"Think so? Come down! I want to see you!"
"Okay..." Sakura said weakly. She didn't want to go out in public like this. Too many old perverts out there. Plus, if the wind ever came, everyone would probably see her underwear!
"Mom! I'm going out with Ino!" Sakura yelled exiting the house.
"Bye dear!" By the time her mom said that Sakura was with Ino.
Sakura let Ino inspect her. Ino glared at her while she went around Sakura examining her.
"Hmmm..." Ino looked at Sakura up and down. "You know, you'll have the most problem I think. They made your uniform too short. You had that growth spurt last summer and clothes on you have been too short. No matter what size you get. Either its too long or too short."
Sakura was about to choke Ino. "What are you my mother!?"
"Hey girls!" Hinata said approching. Hinata looked the best in her uniform. It was the right size. She had her shoes that matched too.
The design of the uniform best suited Hinata. "Wow Hinata!" Sakura said coming up to the short girl. "That looks great on you!"
"You think so?" Hinata said twirling her short hair with her fingers.
Neji approched. He has a black and blue Japanese school uniform. It made him look real tough. XD
Sakura blushed a crimson red. "Wow, you look good too Neji."
Neji didn't say anything but blush. He looked at the ground and kicked a rock.
Hinata smiled at her cousin. Her plan to get Sakura and Neji together was working so far. 'Now, all I have to do, is get them closer. He likes her, she likes him. This is great.'
Ino glanced from Neji to Sakura a couple of times. She had no idea what was going on. She decided to change the subject. "Umm... Sakura?"
"Yes?" Sakura said now focusing her attention on Ino.
"What about that boy you were going to introduce me to? Huh? Did you find him yet?"
Hinata and Sakura looked at each other. Hinata shrugged. Sakura had no choice but to break the news to Ino. "He transfered!" (No she wasn't gonna tell! You silly people! XD)
Ino's smile turned into a frown. "Aw man! Already?" Hinata and Sakura nodded sweating bullets.
Neji wondered why they were lying. He could always tell.
"Sakura dinner!" Sakuras mom called out the door.
Neji looked at her mother. "So this is your home Sakura?"
Sakura nodded. "Do you want to come in?" She said nervously.
"No. Don't worry about it." He said turning and starting to walk back to his home.
Sakura smiled at the boy. Classic view, going into the sunset. You never know how beautiful it is until you see it.
Ino stared at them. And nudged Hinata. "Are they like... Checking each other out or what?"
Hinata happily shrugged.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Sakura dialed the number to Hinata's house. She stared at the map. She had found 5th avenue on it. Now she wanted to investigate.
Someone picked up the phone. "Hello?"
"Neji is that you?" Sakura asked gently.
"Y-Yes..." He studdered. What was she doing calling him? "Can I be any help Sakura?" He whispered into the phone.
"Yes! Keep talking I love your voice. But I do need to talk to Hinata. Can you get her to the phone?"
"Shes sleeping." He sounded a little weak because of Sakura's affection for his voice.
"Wake her please!"
"Okay, hold on..." She could hear Neji put the phone down and walk back to Hinata's room. She heard some mumbles. She heard light footsteps come up to the phone.
"Yes Sakura? Its 8 pm...What are you doing calling me?"
"You sleep too much! I found the guy! Come to my house! We are going to spy!"
"What!? We can't do that! If we get caught they'll kill us!"
"If you be quiet they won't!" Sakura softly yelled in the phone.
"Sakura...." Hinata whined.
"Fine! I'll go by myself!"
"No! I'll go. But Sakura... Just to let you know, I'm going to write my will before I leave."
"No! Were already late I imagine! Now go to my house! No time to lose!" Sakura hung up.
Hinata put the phone down and sighed. She wasn't allowed out side the Hyuga dojo at this time of night. 'So I'll have to sneak out...' Hinata thought depressed.
She went back into her room to change into her ninja outfit. (Ninja outfit! Thats all I could think of! Lemme lone!)
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"I cannot believe I'm doing this...." Hinata said following Sakura down a dark deserted alley. It was cold and creepy outside.
"Here we are! 5th Avenue! The shortest street here! There can't be too many warehouses!" Sakura said happily. She was happy until she turn around and found that the whole street was filled with warehouses.
They stared in silence. All the warehouses looked the same. "Sakura what do we do now? There are too many warehouses here! We'll never find them!" Hinata exclaimed.
Sakura covered Hinata mouth (not again!). "Shh! Listen! I hear talking!"
They both stopped moving to listen. They didn't hear much, but they found out which warehouse it was.
They snuck up on the roof of the warehouse and peeked inside. They saw two groups of five people. There was a table to seperate the two groups. On that table was two black suitcases. Probably money and the drugs. All of the men were dressed in black tuxedos. A black Limo and two black BMW's.
"Wow, this looks like some serious drug dealing!" Sakura whispered to Hinata.
Hinata nodded. They both pressed their ears against the glass to listen at the conversation.
~*"You got it?" Said the largest man there.
"Its not yours until you buy it old man!" Itachi snapped.*~
"Itachi..." Sakura whispered softly.
"Thats his name? Is it he Sasuke's brother or what?" Sakura nodded.
"I found out today at the nurses office."
"He actually talked to you?"
Sakura nodded and continued to listen.
~* "Alright Mr.Itachi, I'll give you 400 a pound."
"Its 500 you pig!"
"What did you call me you fool? Its 400! Its not all that pure!" "Say it again you bastard! I'm pop a cap in you ass right now! Don't forget! Your wanted all over the world! I can get a reward for your ass!"
"You better watch your mouth you lil-"*~
"ACHOO!!!" Hinata sneezed. Sakura gasped and tried to cover her mouth. She leaned too far on the glass until it cracked.
This alerted the dealers. "Whos there!?"
Sakura and Hinata held on to each other. "Oh no! They caught us!" They both wispered.
The man that looked like the hitman, shot the glass and the two girls came tumbling down. (Thats a big drop people)
"Wahhh!!!" Itachi recongized Sakura's voice and ran to where she was about to fall.
Itachi reached out and caught her before she hit the concrete ground.
Hinata hit a box of pillows. Lucky her, this was a pillow warehouse!
Sakura looked up to her gaurdian angel. "I-Itachi..." She blushed. 'I- I could've been killed...' She hugged Itachi. "Thank you! Thank you!" She sighed joyfully. Itachi put her down, still hugging her tightly.
Hinata stared at them in surprise. 'Shes hugging a drug dealer! Itachi caught her....Could they be...'
Sakura let him go, tears in her eyes. Itachi stared at her for a moment. Her emerald eyes held him captive for the soft moment. He blushed.
"What are you doing here!?" Itachi snapped.
"I'm sorry! Please don't kill me!" Sakura yelled back.
Itachi had an irritated voice. "Is anyone else here with you?!"
"No! No! Please don't kill me!" Itachi grabbed the back of Sakura's collar and forced her to sit in a chair. Itachi and the rest of his gang tied her up.
"Sorry about this sir. This chick goes to school with me. She probably followed me here." Itachi said to the porky man on the other side of the table.
"Kill her when I leave...." The man hissed.
"Yes...I will dispose of her. Now is it a deal? 500?" Sakura gasped but a hankersheif held her scream.
"Yes. I want it by tommorow. Thank you." The porky man got into his Limo and left the warehouse.
Itachi looked to Sakura who was crying. "Too bad... Your going to die now. And I thought you looked so cute. Too bad cute people can't mind there own business.... Right Sakura?" He pointed the handgun to her head. "Boys, you go on ahead. Leave this to me."
The rest of his gang got into one BMW and left.
Itachi untied the hankercheif. "What do you have to say for yourself? Now that your on the Sharingan Gang turf." (good name eh? XD)
"Please don't kill me... I don't want to die..."
Hinata, that crashed in a box stared in horror. She couldn't save her because she wanted her own life. Plus, she was scared stiff.
Itachi sqeezed the handle.
Hinata closed her eyes and she heard the gun shot echo through the air. She automatically started crying. She knew Sakura was dead. There was no way to bring her back to life. She couldn't stand the thought of being in high school without her. She looked up to face harsh reality.
She saw Neji. Sakura on the floor still tied to her chair struggling to get up. She was alive!
Itachi was on the ground. Neji must've snuck up on Itachi!
He helped Sakura up and untied her. "Neij! Thank you!" (Once again someone saves her butt! XD)
Neji hugged back graciously. "Are you alright?" He asked gently.
"No..." Sakura let him go and looked at her arm. Itachi still shot her in the arm.
"Yow." Neji commented looking at the small bleeding wound. "We need to get you some help.
Neji was going to help her but Sakura ran to Itachi on the ground. He was still but not dead. Neji must've knocked him out with one kick. (Go Neji!)
She took the gun from Itachi and nudged him. "Itachi... Itachi...Please wake up. Please..."
Neji didn't say anything but he thought it was foolish to be doing that to a killer.
Itachi came to. He held up his hand to her head hoping to shoot her but found out that there was no gun in his hand.
"Are you okay Itachi..?" Sakura said softly. She rubbed his hair back from his forehead.
Itachi blushed. What was she doing comforting him? He was getting ready to kill her! Why isn't she going to take her revenge.
"Why are you-?"
"You saved me and its only fair to return the favor. Plus you said I was cute." She giggled contently.
Itachi got up. Sakura did also. "I didn't want you to kill me before because I didn't pay you back for saving me. I guess we are on even grounds now though." She handed him the gun. "Here... Its only fair. Because I was in your business."
He pointed the gun at her head. She started to cry again.
Itachi mentally hit himself. 'Why can't I kill her?! Its not because shes a girl! Its not because of anything! I just can't do it....'
He put the gun down and Sakura sighed. Her life had been spared.
"Go before I change my mind." Itachi said nonchalantly.
"Yes...." Sakura whispered.
Hinata came out from hiding and hugged her cousin. "Neji! Thank you! How'd you know we were here?"
Neji looked down at Hinata. "I overheard you all talking. There is more than one phone in the house."
Hinata smiled. Good thing he did over hear them.
Sakura came over. "Thanks Neji. We really owe you alot!"
Neji shrugged.
Hinata inspected Sakura's arm. "Sakura! You did get shot! We have to get you to the hospital!"
Sakura looked at her wound. "Its actually not a real bullet. I think its a dud. But it did punture my skin..."
"We still need the hospital!"
"I'm sooo grounded for this. Wait until I tell mom..."
Chappie 5: STUDY DATE
*WOW! How was that? XD That was fun! Chappie 4 is over with! Thank you again for the reviews! Everyone (So far) likes the idea for a NejiSakuItachi triangle! YAY!!! I think I'll try it!
