Laruku-chan: *gasps* Masaka!

Sasuke-kun: *blinks* Uso, reviews five of them. Suge, that's five more than I expected you'd get!

Laruku-chan: Aiiieee! Sasuke-kun pinch me! I must be dreaming! *squeals*

Sasuke-kun: *shrugs* Okay.

POWWW!!!!

Laruku-chan: ITAI! *bonks Sasuke-kun with her fist* BAKA, whatcha hit me for?! I said to PINCH, not PUNCH!!

Sasuke-kun: *shrugs* Works either way if you ask me.

Laruku-chan: Mou! Well anyways ARIGATOU GOZAIMASU for everyone who reviewed! Okini! I'll update more often depending if this fic gets more reviews! *crosses her fingers*

Sasuke-kun: Which it most likely will NOT! *laughs evilly*

Laruku-chan: URUSAI! *gives death glares* BTW, Rohanonn (and to all Uchiha Sasuke fans out there), Sasuke-kun won't be appearing until later on, sumimasen for the wait. It's sort of like in the real CCS series when Syaoran doesn't appear until the first few episodes pass but is still a major character in the story. And yea I already know bout how toriyama's world is subbing episodes. I tried downloading them from the site but I just prefer kazaa to mirC or BitTorrent (im too dumb to know how to work mirC ^^) Im downloading them off kazaa right now. The download accelerator im using doesn't seem to be working too well though. O well.

Sasuke-kun: I better start going into hiding before she starts putting me into her fic, *shudders*

Laruku-chan: Mou! You're no fun. Ma, satte, here's my latest chapter to my fic! Now's when Sakura-chan first appears in person in my story!

Sasuke-kun: uh *sweatdrop* Yea, but it also appears that she's gonna be real late when she wakes up. . .

Laruku-chan: uh. . . *sweatdrop* heh heh well that's our Sakura-chan! Well read the chapter and don't forget to R&R! Naruto belongs to Kishimoto-sama!

---------------------------

An AU Naruto fic with a CCS crossover

Scroll Sealer Sakura CHAPTER TWO: Your not so average "Ordinary Girl" Haruno Sakura

"SAKURA!!!"

"Okay already Okaa-chan! Mou! [I.S: I'M UP GODAMMIT!]" yelled Sakura.

Chikshou! Why did every single friggin' morning have to start this way?

They same way it started just like last morning, and the morning before that. For the past week her mornings started the same, all with that same strange dream, and then followed by a mad rush to the academy for her ninja training after waking up so late in the mornings. It had to be some kind of phase she was going through right now. Chikshou, if it was, then it was certainly really ruining her social life because somehow after everytime she woke from her dream, her energy seemed as if it had been used up. It was impossible to use her chakra, when she was sleeping, or was it? She couldn't perform real jutsus in dreams, right? Yet lately, she somehow felt, dry and weakened, sleep was the only way of restoring her energy.

Well whatever was going on it was became really annoying because of how it made her sleep in late in the mornings; she was already in trouble at school for her late attendances and even occasionally falling asleep in classes. It all seemed too unreal. Almost as if it were like, it was in a world of one she'd never known, completely different from the one she lived in right now. Nah, Sakura shrugged that thought off. Besides, she wasn't some dumb brat who still believed such in imaginary things. Yet it was still strange. What could it possibly mean? Sakura paused as she sat up in bed looking out towards the window. Sunlight filtered through her window into her room as she yawned and stretched, her sleepy eyes still half closed. With a content relaxed grin she smoothed out her covers as she got out of bed.

"It's not like I woke up that late again!" Sakura chuckled to herself as she got out of bed and turned off her alarm, "I'll make to school this time for sure!"

But as she picked it up a sweatdrop formed on her head as she saw that it read,

"YAPPAI! 8 o'clock ALREADY!! I'm DEAD!!" she shrieked.

And so in a series of crashing into a dozen things both people and objects alike and screaming the heck out of herself she managed to actually get herself in one piece by the time she headed out of the door. The house was already in ruins from last morning's rampage. Her mother sighed as another one of her vases shattered to pieces as Sakura came rushing out from the now messy kitchen and into her one tidy living room and slammed the door on the way out without as much as a "Sayonara Okaa-chan!"

"Sakura, you didn't have breakfast yet!" her mother cried towards her retreating back.

"Okaa-chan there REALLY isn't enough time IF you hadn't noticed," Sakura grumbled, her voice was muffled by the burnt piece of toast held in her mouth, "Ittekimasu!"

"Chotto Sakura! You still forgot your lunch!" her mother yelled after her.

Oh dammit, "Hai! Arigatou Okaa-chan," she said as she headed back.

A few minutes passed after she retrieved her lunch and she headed out the door once more.

"Sakura! Did you bring your shinobi equipment?"

Mou! I forgot again! "Yappai! I'll go get them Okaa-chan!"

"Alright Sakura-chan. Isoide!"

Then after another fifteen minutes of rampaging through her house trying to find her equipment she finally headed out the door again this time running really late.

"Sakura! You're not wearing your ribbon! You're hair's a mess!"

"I'M NOT?!" she cried as she patted her hair furiously the check, "Oh no chotto matte, it's right here, I'll tie it on the way there! Ja Okaa-chan!"

"Chotto SAKURA!"

"WHAT NOW?!" she shrieked now very aggravated as popping veins started to appear on her wide forehead.

Her mother, blinked in surprise but then smiled, "Good luck on your Henge no Jutsu Test today!"

Henge no Jutsu Test? Sakura paused.

WHAT FUCKING JUTSU TEST?!!

"You did practice for your test today didn't you?" her mother asked anxiously seeing the look on her face.

"Uhhh, yea! Of course I did, heh heh, *sweatdrop * [I DIDN'T KNOW 'BOUT ANY FRIGGIN' TEST!]" Sakura replied with a fake smile.

"Yokatta! I thought you'd forget again! (Sakura sweatdropped). Alright Sakura, hayaku! You're going to late for school!"

"School?" Sakura blinked then snapped back to reality, "OH NO SCHOOL!"

Her mother sweatdropped as she watched her daughter dash to school leaving a think trail of dust in her path.

~*~*~

Shyaanarou! Sakura cursed as she dashed down the busy streets of Konoha Village while screaming, "Sumimasen!" practically all the way there as she collided with the many misfortunate people who happened to be in the direction in which she was frantically running.

"Mattaku! There goes Sakura-chan again!" sighed one of the villagers as she bashed into a poor elderly lady knocking her senseless to the ground.

"KONO GAKI!" screamed the fearsome old granny now very pissed off.

"Itai!" Sakura yelped as she gingerly clutched her head as the old woman began to scold her with her walking stick, "G-gomen nasai Obaa-san! Sumimasen, I didn't mean it! [SHYAANAROU!! IT WASN'T MY FAULT YOU UGLY BUSU! NEXT TIME WALK FASTER YOU OLD FART!]"

"Mou!" muttered the old lady, "Young people these days!"

"Suman," Sakura replied sheepishly as she picked herself off of the ground and forced a smile onto her face, "Well ja, Obaa-chan, I've got to get to school!"

The surrounding villagers gave sweatdrops as Sakura headed on in her daily terrifying morning rampage to school. They watched as the cloud of dust swooshed by as further cries of "SUMIMASEN!" could be heard further up along the street. They all sighed knowing they'd most likely have to face the same thing again tomorrow morning.

She apologized once more as she knocked down a cartful of apples, the vendor's curses followed her as she went. Shyaanarou! She'd probably never make it there in time! Mou! It wasn't her fault that she kept having stupid dreams. Normally she never slept in, but these dreams, they just kept occupying her mind lately. Yet what did it mean? It seemed just too familiar, but somehow Sakura just couldn't lay a finger on it. She replayed the dream sequence over and over again in her head but she still couldn't understand why it felt so familiar.

As she continued to race down the road she suddenly stopped abruptly in her tracks. She had reached a fork at the end of the street. Funny, she didn't remember there having a fork here before. Mou, she must have taken a wrong turn somewhere. Now what? If she turned around to get back onto the right road, it might take too long. She pondered to herself, she was sure wasn't that far to the school already, maybe if she took one of these roads would take her there either way. Sakura shrugged her shoulders, it was worth a try but which path should she take?

"Mou! Guess I'll have to flip a coin or something."

But as she started to decide, a gust of wind began to blow, her hair swayed along with it. She closed her eyes, somehow it was pulling her towards the left road and she absent-mindedly ran along letting the wind guide her.

-----------

Sakura ran faster. The wind was beginning to die down and she tried to pick up her pace in order to keep up. She didn't know why she was so concerned about this, but somehow she knew if she didn't reach there soon enough then she wouldn't be able to find it again. But then again, where was "there"? She didn't know, but hardly cared. Yet she knew that she had to get there.

As she ran on with the surrounding wind, she suddenly realized . . .

That she had been in this kind of situation before!

Wind? It was just like in her dream.

She glanced up to see where the wind had brought her. She gasped in surprise. This had to be the place she had unknowingly been rushing to try to find.

A row of Sakura trees stood there. Their braches swaying in the cool springtime breeze. It was certainly a beautiful breathtaking scene as Sakura stood there admiring the beauty of it all. It gave her such a cool serene and soothing feeling as she breathed in the soft sweet scent of their blossoms.

This was way more then her dream could ever be. This was real.

And then, Sakura heard those voices and the wind grew stronger. They were the same ones that had been calling to her last night. It was the spirits thought Sakura joyfully. They're still alive! She drew closer within the shade of the Sakura trees and followed their cries. Closing her eyes, she let her mind wander with the cries following them deep into the cherry blossoms.

"Sakura. . ."

She was drawing closer she knew it. Their presence was real; she could feel it within the air.

"Sakura. . ."

Where were they hiding? Please come out she pleaded to herself.

"Sakura, this way. . ."

She took another step, when suddenly. . .

"Sakura? Is that you?"

Sakura whirled around surprised to see that a person had the called her name. The spirits stopped their cries at once, no further callings could be heard. Sakura flared her ears desperately listening for even a single whisper but there was none. She slowly turned back to see a young man with long silver spiky hair and a handsome face who had distracted her from the spirits. He glanced at her with a confused look on his face and she blushed at once. Sakura found it a bit embarrassing to find him here with her of all times. It was one of her teachers from her academy, and he was all alone with her. He smiled at her again and said, "Sakura-chan, what are you doing here? You're going to be late for school if you hang out here all day."

"Kakashi-sensei!" she stuttered unable to stop herself from blushing so much, "I-I was just.."

She turned bright red as he stepped closer towards her and sighed. Sakura twitched awkwardly as she shyly tried to face him without making a complete fool of herself, but failed. He glanced at her with a strange look but then gave another warm smile as he touched a delicate cherry blossom on a low nearby branch. His eyes twinkled with delight as he admired the pink petals of the flower.

"The cherry blossoms are now in full bloom, it's such a beautiful sight, ne?" he sighed as he began to smell it's sweet fragrance, "Cherry Blossom, that's what your name means doesn't it? Haruno Sakura, Springtime Cherry Blossom."

He gave a gentle tug at the stem of the flower and pulled it off the tree's branch. Sakura could feel the warmth intensify on her cheeks and her heart began to pound inside her chest as he slowly presented it to her with a smile.

"It certainly suits you Sakura-chan," he grinned, "No wonder you'd be here."

"A-Arigatou Sensei [AIEEE!!! HE'S SO SWEET!!!]," she stammered as she shyly took the small flower from his hands. She took a sniff, "It's so pretty."

"Aa, just like you," he nodded in agreement and with that Sakura flushed furiously at that comment. He laughed at her cute reaction. She knew he was just giving her a compliment but she couldn't help but take it a bit too seriously.

"Well, we'd better hurry now. School's already started, I don't think Iruka- sensei will be pleased to see you late again Sakura-chan," Kakashi said. Sakura was scowled at the comment about to defend herself by saying that it wasn't her fault but thought better of it.

"Ano sa, aren't you just as late as I am Sensei?" she glared at him, "A teacher should be at the school even earlier before a morning class starts."

Kakashi laughed, "Yeah, sou desu you ne, Sakura-chan. But I like to take my time. It's such a beautiful morning, and it'd be shame to let it go to waste." Sakura glanced at him as if he was weird but then asked, "So, is that why you were admiring the Sakura trees too?"

"Hai," he nodded, "I bike here every morning. I like to spend my time here. It's my favorite place in the whole village. It's such a peaceful place, I like to go there whenever I need some time alone to myself to think about things," he looked up once more towards the Sakura blossoms and sighed to her, "Ma, Sakura-chan, I'll walk you along to the rest of the way to school here on my bike."

Sakura blushed again, "Iie Kakashi-sensei! Daijoubu, I can walk the rest of the way there."

"No it's alright. We're heading along the same way anyways," he smiled, "We'd better get going, although I'll doubt we'll ever make it."

Sakura smiled back. For once this morning was different, and for once she wished she could make it last. School didn't seem as much anymore. She sighed knowing she'd better make the best of things before it ended. The spirits mysterious callings were now the last things on her mind at the moment.

"Ne, Sakura-chan? Don't you have a Henge no Jutsu test today?" Kakashi asked.

A sweatdrop formed on her head as she replied, "Aaa. . . [WHY DID YOU HAVE TO RUIN THE MOMENT?!], demo, I didn't practice for it. My Okaa-chan will probably kill me if I fail though."

Kakashi laughed, "Daijoubu Sakura-chan. I'm sure you'll do fine, you're a very smart girl. Well gambare masu!"

"Hai! I will sensei!" Sakura cheered up immediately at his words, "We'd better hurry now. Let's go!"

Yet as they began to leave the Cherry Blossom trees behind, a sudden new gust of wind began to blow and along with it not only did it pick up the loose Sakura petals, but also mixed within the gale were the mysterious cries filling the air surround the Blossom trees. Almost as if they were mourning at the departure of Sakura's presence.

TBC?
