Chapter 2

don't look and certainly don't enter

The morning was a blur; a fast paced blur. Most people can take it all in; every moment can seem to last forever. That is why people find school so boring. But for others, like Sakura, school seemed to go by in a flash. Most days Sakura would be sitting in first period for a minute and the next moment she would find herself hearing the bell ring in ninth.

Every moment that Sakura spent seemed meaning-less; unimportant. That is the true reason why Sakura had come to hate school. Even if Sakura tried to keep one place in her thoughts another would come from out of nowhere, take its place, and another followed suit. Nothing seemed to matter. At times Sakura came to think that while the rest of the world moved freely, like a movie, she was only there to watch. At least that was how Sakura had felt when she had been younger. But at certain times it was still hard.

"Ne Sakura-chan?" a voice called, prying Sakura from her thoughts.

With a flash she was back to reality. Sakura turned her head and tilted it upright towards Naruto. He had a huge grin on his face and looked as though holidays had come early. His hair was slightly ruffled at the tips of the spikes. His uniform looked like it had been thrown on in a rush; the jacket's sleeves were pushed up, pants were creased, and the tie was strung around his neck. It took Sakura a minute to remember where she was at the moment.

Let's see…I came from chemistry class just now. Which means that…

That you were just at ninth period baka.

Shut up! If you say that I'm a baka than that makes you one too!

Ok smartass, but I know where you are…at your stupid locker.

Oh…well I knew that already.

Sure you did.

Sakura turned away from her thoughts and focused on Naruto again. Considering the way that he looked he had most likely just rushed out of gym class to catch Sakura before she left. He also didn't have his books or his bag either. As usual he had probably forgotten it again.

"Yeah Naruto," Sakura replied and decided to tell him. "You forgot your bag in the locker room again."

"Damn it," he cursed and slapped himself on the head.

"I'll be right back!" Naruto called already dashing down the halls towards the gym. "Wait for me ok!"

Sakura nodded and turned back to her locker. She started to do her combination. After a minute of trying Sakura became too frustrated with the locker's lock. She banged her hand on the cold metal which made a slight dent. She then kicked it with the side of her foot, which only banged it and left a skid mark. Sakura began cursing silently at the locker, which soon turned to being said under her breath.

"Having locker problems, huh?" a voice asked.

Sakura felt a tingling sensation creeping up the back of her neck. She turned her head slowly and nearly froze on the spot. Her insides began to tremble with some type of unknown feeling. Sakura nodded slowly as she faced the man cautiously. He moved towards her locker and stared at it for a few moments. Then he moved to the lock and began to turn the small dial.

He looked about sixteen or maybe seventeen years old. He had black hair which was the same color as his eyes. His hair was long and was tied back behind his shoulders. His face was pale, almost white, and it had very sharp features. Upon closer inspection on his face Sakura could see two little scars that ran along the sides of his nose, just bellow his eyes. He was wearing a black shirt with a high collar and black pants.

For some reason he looked so familiar. Sakura couldn't put her finger on it but she had seen him somewhere before. He stood up and turned to face Sakura. He tilted his head and nodded towards the locker, indicating that he had finished with the task. Sakura took the lock out and opened the door. As she was gathering her books Sakura could feel his eyes burning into her back.

Quickly Sakura gathered her books and placed her other neatly into the locker. She shut it and stood up to face the man. He had a good ten inches on her and she had to look up to meet his gaze. She took a moment to observe the silence before speaking.

"Thank you," Sakura said sweetly.

"Hn," he replied.

He still looked straight at her with moving at all. His facial expressions didn't change either. Sakura kept her ground and waited for some sign of movement from him. Nothing.

This is getting me nowhere.

Well if you keep staring at him it'll stay this way baka.

Well what do you suggest that I do smartass?

Easy let me out and I'll personally handle it myself.

Yeah right. You think after what you did the last time? No thanks.

Images of the past flooded into Sakura's mind. The last time that she had let her inner self out was when some idiot had made fun of her forehead. She had lost her temper and for one minute given control to her inner self. The result had been the idiot getting sent to the hospital and Sakura had been given strict warnings about fighting a student on school grounds. Not a fun way to spend you free time being scolded by the principal. That day her principal's vein had nearly popped from her forehead.

Sakura repressed her inner self and left the comfort of her thoughts. Just as she did the muscles of the man's face moved slightly. The blank look on his face changed and in its place was a small smirk. His eyes seemed curious for a moment and than became interested with something. Sakura kept her eyes locked with his. The rest of her body seemed to become paralyzed and frozen in the moment. She tried to move her eyes away but no luck; she was stuck in his eyes.

As she stared deeper a flick of something appeared before her. It almost looked like a scenes from a movie. It was moving too fast for Sakura to get a good look but she could see one thing in the images, fear. But fear of what? Sakura tried to pry deeper but was only greeted by an empty void of hollow darkness. As Sakura tried to turn away two circular red orbs sprang from the darkness, closing in around her.

"Sakura!"

It vanished. The void, the images, and finally the red orbs. Sakura was hurled backwards. In an instant she was out of the void and into her body. Her legs violently shook and her body swayed as though it was caught in a breeze. She almost fell backwards when a set of hands caught her from behind. She opened her eyes realizing that when she returned to her body she had shut them tightly. She opened them quickly and felt her legs give away.

She dropped to the ground and placed her hands to the floor in order to steady herself. Sakura started to shake and trembled like an invisible cold feeling had settled into the building. Two arms came to her shoulders and held her steady. They were firm and strong but also very gentle. Sakura looked at her side to see Sasuke's dark eyes staring back into her emerald ones.

"You ok?" Sasuke asked.

Sakura slowly nodded, relieved to have control of her body once again. Sasuke continued staring at Sakura, giving her body the once over before returning to her eyes. Finally he seemed to actually believe her nod. He shifted his gaze to the side and glared angrily. Both of the boys seemed to be locked in some sort of death stare match.

After what seemed like an eternity Sasuke spoke. His voice sounded colder than ever. His body seemed to become ablaze in a blue light of fire. The room seemed to get even colder.

"What did you do?" Sasuke asked, no more like commanded.

The room seemed to crackle with energy. Sakura could swear that she could see sparks of lightning crackle from the intensity of the two. The young man opposite of Sasuke seemed to glow with a darker form of light, but this one was a deep crimson red instead of blue. When he spoke the entire room seemed to tremble with the power that he was admitting. He shrugged his shoulders as he began to speak.

"Nothing," he replied slowly and calmly. "I didn't make her; she looked of her own free will."

He glared at Sasuke, edging him to press farther. His eyes dared Sasuke to go over the edge, he was just asking for fight. Sasuke's right hand formed into a fist, but he kept it rested on Sakura's shoulder. It felt like he was almost gripping her for support; if Sakura even flinched than Sasuke would probably rush at the young man. The young man smirked and started to turn around. Just as he started to walk he slightly turned his head and smirked in Sasuke's direction.

"Pathetic," he muttered and walked out of the room.

Sasuke released his fist and turned towards Sakura. He slowly stood up and held out his hand for Sakura to take. Sakura reached up and slowly placed her hand in his; she braced herself for the impact. A brief picture of Sasuke walking her trough the street and up to her house flashed into her mind. It was soon followed by an image of Sasuke punching Naruto in the face. Sakura let out a sigh of relief.

Fhew…nothing serious.

"You want to tell me what you saw this time?" Sasuke asked.

His eyes looked tired as though he had been deprived of sleep. Sakura glanced at his face to see if he was angry with her, but all she saw was exhaustion and worry scattered across his face. Sakura chuckled and told him what she had seen, leaving out the part about him walking her home. Sasuke muttered something that sounded like "same as usual" and picked up her books, which had fallen to the floor.

He took them in his free hand and took Sakura's hand in his other. They both began to walk towards the exit of the build, Sasuke guiding the way. Sakura mostly kept her eyes on the floor with the occasional glance at Sasuke's backside. Finally Sakura couldn't take anymore of the silence, it was driving her insane. She looked up at Sasuke's backside and broke the silence.

"Sasuke, can I ask you a question?" Sakura mumbled.

Sasuke turned his side eye to glance at her and smirked.

"You just did," he stated. "You want to ask another?"

Sakura nodded and carefully chose her next words. "Who was that guy that you were um, speaking to?"

Sasuke seemed to stop in mid-walk for a second before continuing with his stride. He walked silently and Sakura dropped the question, but it still hung in the air. They continued walking until they were half a block from Sakura's house. When Sasuke finally spoke again Sakura nearly jumped out of her skin at the sudden sound. Sasuke kept his back to her and spat out his answer.

"He's my brother," Sasuke answered with such hate in his voice that the birds seemed to stop chirping.

His grip on Sakura's wrist tightened causing her to flinch from the change in handling. Sasuke eased on the grip and muttered a sorry just low enough for Sakura to hear. They continued the rest of their walk in silence until they reached Sakura's house. Sasuke let go of her wrist and handed Sakura her books. Sasuke turned to leave.

Sakura lightly touched the sleeve of his jacket causing Sasuke to stop and turn back in surprise. Sakura looked him in the eye for a good minute.

"It's ok," she said calmly. "Everything is going to be ok."

Sakura smiled warmly at Sasuke. Sasuke turned to leave and stopped before he reached the gate.

"Do you want me to stop by for you in the morning?" he asked uncertainly. "Naruto said to meet him there at eleven tomorrow morning."

Sakura nodded happily.

"Ten-thirty ok?" Sakura asked.

Sasuke nodded and headed out through the gate. As he closed the gate Sakura leaned against the front door of the house. She steadied herself and relayed the moments that had just happened to her.

To brief moment when Sakura had told Sasuke that everything would be alright.

That brief moment when time seemed to stop for once.

That brief moment when Sakura had seen the impossible.

That moment when Sakura had seen Sasuke sort of smile.
