Chapter 3: Your Blood, My Chance
Three weeks have passed since the incident and young Ponta is hurriedly learning on how to be independent from his guardian. He knew that he badly needed the remedy for this unusual sickness that has gotten into him.
Days have been dry lately with Konoha still believing Sasuke went out on vacation. The village sometimes receives mail from their prodigy uncharacteristically saying all the wonderful things about the place. Even Chouji whose not even close to Sasuke felt that something is going on with that distant guy. Slowly the people around Sakura started questioning her. However, they still do not have a clue that the person they are looking for is always in their midst… slurping ice cream.
Sakura stared blankly at the messy room, definitely working ways on how to stop Sasuke from being curious with everything. He has been talking some awkward words, trying hardly to present his emotions but all Sakura understood is that he wanted some refreshment. Anytime Sasuke barged into her room waving his fat hands on her face, Sakura would feed her ice cream. Sasuke didn't want the ice cream, he was saying that he wants to train into the forest and read some important scrolls so he could change.
"ahh…tra… faaaaruusss…", the prodigy while waving a pointing the direction of the forest.
"Hmm? You want chocolate mousse or just cookies and cream?" answered Sakura though she knew it was not what Sasuke wanted. She just couldn't figure out what.
Sasuke's a genius, nobody could contest that. He learned his first understandable word while Tenten and Naruto visited Sakura the other day. The weapons specialist smile at little Ponta and the latter just stared at her. His pink-haired guardian was busy shooing away Naruto from the fridge and letting him sit on the living room sofa.
" I think this would be a boring day for all of us right, Ponta?" Tenten said while stretching her arms upward.
Sasuke was not even listening and was observing Naruto and Sakura argue in the kitchen. He looked away, probably dismayed at his teammates and shook his head. Tenten mentally noted how Ponta is similar to the last member of the Uchiha clan. She was even startled when she heard him say, dobe, while shaking his head, sitting in a small chair. Tadaa… Sasuke's first word.
Today, Ponta is seriously bored. After taking time watching Sakura sew another set of t-shirts for him, he laid his body on the floor and wondered what's going on with his life now. He didn't have anything to do anyway. Sakura saw him and told him he should do that on his bed but before that, she wanted him to stand up straight. She would measure him again. He obeyed, while yawning. The girl said that he still has the same statistics and Sasuke's hopes of being an average (in his own standards) teenager vanished.
Sakura returned to her sewing and Sasuke lurched into the bed. He fell asleep almost instantly. The boy really enjoys his moments of being a kid. His past forbid him from loving his childhood and this incident sometimes brought happy memories hidden in his mind by pain.
Ready to present the new clothes for Ponta, Sakura hastily worked on the last stitches causing the needle to catch her smooth pointing finger. She yelped silently and a drop of her blood escaped her skin. Meanwhile, Sasuke was awaken by a sharp pain in his limbs, thinking it was just a bite of an insect, he massaged it slowly and fell asleep again.
She found a band-aid in medicine box; Sakura happily plastered in into her finger and arranged the sewing materials. Yes, she was done for that day. she picked the green t-shirt, with the special inspiration from Lee and Gai-sensei, Sasuke has another shirt to put on. The female ninja headed for the stair, eyes shining with delight, woke up Sasuke in his deep dreaming.
"Sasuke…err… I mean…Ponta…wake up!" she announced.
"…"
"Hey, come on!"
"…"
Unwilling to wait much longer, Sakura shook his shoulder startling the small being. He titled his head and queried for the bother using his usual what's-wrong-with-you-woman-look. Beaming Sakura shoved the piece of material in his face.
"Ohh…you would look so cute here!" she said
Shocked and disgusted, Sasuke pushed the shirt away. He doesn't like green moreover if it's designed to look like the ones used by the weird duo. Sasuke got up from the bed and tried to walk away. The girl stopped him, forcing him just to try it on once, he glared but it only made him looked even cuter. awww…the joys of taking care of a baby Uchiha. Sakura smiled and offered it to him again. still refusing, Sasuke ran down the stairs, his head begging for mercy from the horrible shame of dressing with that cursed shirt. the next thing Sasuke knew was that Sakura was carefully fitting it to him.
"Now…what has gotten wrong?"
She didn't know it wouldn't fit Sasuke in the arms but according to her last measurement, Sasuke's arms were just like that big.
"I think… your limbs grew big, Sasuke-kun or maybe I just got the wrong measure?"
Ponta only listened not bothering to understand what the girl in front of him is saying. He was busy thinking of ways on how to destroy the shirt. Sakura adjusted the length and wideness then again started seeking for the hiding little boy. Sasuke's quick reflexes allowed him to hide in a very good place but it's Sakura's house after all, so sooner or later, she would find him, he decided. He hid silently, waiting and listening.
"Sakura, open the door" a woman's voice announced. The pink-haired girl looked up, flattened her dress and remembered the owner of the voice.
"So, Ino-pig, what brings you here?" she said while opening the door for her greatest rival.
ooo000ooo
