Chapter Twenty Four

Madoka Haruno

It was Friday morning. The winter holidays had started today. School was off, and apparently, Madoka Haruno was going to be at Karasu street, live. Sakrua yawned, and got out of bed.

She walked over to the calendar beside her bed. "Holy...next Saturday is Christmas..." she said. Sakura did her daily rutiene, (sucks at spelling, you should know that by know) and headed downstairs.

She flipped through the channels, and stopped at the weather report.

It's gonna be snow, snow snow, today! If you look outside, there will be at least 5 cm of snow. The snow will be coming and stopping. So be sure to wear-

Sakura turned off the television. "Hm..snow eh?" she said. Snowflake rubbed herself against Sakura's legs. "Hi Snowflake. Lets go get some breakfast." she said. Sakura walked to the counter, and pulled out Snowflake's canned food. She turned on the radio.

I know there's something in the wake of your smile
I get a notion from the look in your eyes, yeah
you've built a love but that love falls apart
your little piece of heaven turns too dark

Sakura tapped her foot to the beat.

listen to your heart
when he's calling for you
listen to your heart
there's nothing else you can do
I don't know where you're going
and I don't know why
but listen to your heart
before you tell him goodbye

She spun around, with the cat food stuck to the spoon in her hand. The food flew out of the spoon, and hit the wall. Snowflake lazily walked upstairs, knowing her master wont be finished soon.

sometimes you wonder if this fight is worthwhile
the precious moments are all lost in the tide, yeah
they're swept away and nothing is what is seems
the feeling of belonging to your dreams

Sakura digged her spoon into the cat food, and spun around. The can fell over. "Oops!" Sakura said, finally noticing the food on her wall, and ground.

She took a cloth, and wiped the food off the wall. RING RING

"Hello?"

"Sakura? Its Sasuke. Its snowing out. Wanna meet at the cafe near your house?"

"Sure! Um..Ill be there in half an hour."

"Why are you gonna take so long?"

"Sasuke! I take time! Oh, and tell the others to come."

"Sakura, I wanted me and you to be alone. If you get what Im saying." Sasuke said, smirking.

Sakura blushed. "Sorry Sasuke, but I gotta tell you guys something."

"What ever. See ya."

"Love you."

"Love you back."

Sakura fed her cat, and picked up the newspaper. She got changed out of her PJs, and walked to the cafe.

She saw Sasuke, Naruto and Hinata sitting on the couch. "Where are the others?" Sakura asked. "The others couldnt make it." Temari said coming through the doors of the cafe.

Everyone got comfertalbe, and Sakura pulled out the newspaper from her purse. "Have you guys seen this?" Sakura asked. Temari and Naruto nodded. Sasuke shook his head. "I didnt get to read it yet." Hinata said.

Temari gasped. "Right! Page 3 has-"

"Yeah! I know. Im gonna explain it." Sakura said. Sasuke stared at Sakura. What is she talking about...

"As Naruto and Temari have seen, on page 3, there is an add about Madoka HARUNO. Dont inturrupt!" Sakura said, seeing the look on Sasuke's face.

"Okay! I have a lovey dear cousin of mine. Her name is Madoka Haruno. When I was little, she came to my house a lot, and we had singing contests. Of course, she was better than me. She went to many talent shows, and won many singing conests and stuff like that. Well, she moved, then I moved here, and we havent talked lately, but her dream has come true. Madoka Haruno, my cousin, is a pro.singer!" Sakura said.

Sasuke and Naruto's jaw dropped. "So thats why it said live and music, and stuff! Hey! Do you think you could get us in free!" Naruto asked. "What makes you think I would wanna listen to a chick singing?" Sasuke said. "Wait, wait! How does she look like?" Temari asked.

"Well..to tell you the truth, she really looks like you. You guys could be like twin sisters. But shes taller than you, and older. Shes 19." Sakura said. "So thats why the dude on the plane thought I was her!" Temari said.

"Dude on the plane?" Sakura asked. "Yeah. But..he was from england..." Temari said. "Yeah, Madoka moved to England." Sakura said.

"Sakura...when our country hears about Madoka...YOU WILL BE SOOO POPUALR! Now dont forget us little people." Naruto said smiling.

Sasuke rolled his eyes. "So, dont mind Sasuke. Do you think you could get us in?" Naruto asked. "Pretty sure I can." Sakura said smiling. "Dont worry Sasuke, shes a great singer. Even if your stubborn, and you dont like her, I have something to tell you." Sakura said giggling.

"Spit it out Sakura!" Naruto said. "Well...if your nice to her...she could let you sing live, with your band!" Sakura said.

Sasuke and Naruto's eyes widened. They had forgotten about the band for a while. "Wow...wow...wow...wow..wow...wow...wow..." Naruto muttered. "Shut up dobe. You mean it Sakura?" Sasuke asked, puppy dog eyes, looking deeply into Sakura's eyes. "Yup! Well, you know, you better be nice to her Sasuke!" Sakura said.

"Hm..thanks for reminding us Sakura! See ya!" Naruto said. Sasuke and Naruto grabbed their jackets, and ran out of the cafe.

Sakura rolled her eyes. "Boys..." she muttered.

Sasuke and Naruto ran to Neji's house. They banged on the door. "Open up dammit!" Naruto yelled. "We know your in there Hyuuga! Stop making out with the girl, and get out here!" Sasuke said. Neji opened the door blushing. "What do you mean making out with the girl. First of all, her name is Tenten. And, Im not making out! Shes not even here!" Neji said. "What ever lover boy. Get your guitar, and meet us at Sasuke's house. Pronto! Band Meeting!" Naruto yelled.

They ran to Gaara's house and knocked again. "Im gonna play the guitar, so you bring your key board, my house, band practice. Be there ASAP." Sasuke said, and ran. Naruto nodded, and followed the Uchiha. Gaara rolled his eyes. "What are they? The messengar boys?"

Naruto and Sasuke ran to his mansion, to the spare room downstairs. The plugged Sasuke's guitar, and waited for the rest of the band.

"Dude, Sasuke! Pass me the water!" Naruto said lying on the couch. "Get it your self lazy ass." Sasuke said taking a sip of his. "You suck. I dont want it anymore." Naruto said. "Your like a whiney child. You know that?" Sasuke said. "And your like an ice cube." Naruto said. "At least Im a cool ice cube. What are you?" Sasuke said. "Im a...a...Im ORIGINAL!" Naruto said, with his foxy grin. Sasuke rolled his eyes.

"Yo. Why band practice?" Gaara asked in the door way. "Ill tell when Neji comes." Sasuke said.

"Here. Now spill." Neji said, stepping out of the shadow, like a murder in the night. "Holy crap Neji! Tell us when your hiding in the shadow like a lunitic!" Naruto said.

"Sakura got cousin. Singer. We play live. Get it?" Sasuke said using 9 simple words.

The guys nodded. "Hold it. Name: Deadly 4. What is it? Lame. We are changing it." Neji said. Sasuke sighed. "Fine...now that you say it, it does suck." Sasuke said.

"Hm...what should it be..." Naruto asked. "I know this is crap, but how about Melphious?" (a/n: i hated the name, so my friend told me to use Melphious.)

"What ever. Better than before." Gaara said, setting his keyboard up. "So...are we ready to play in front of a lot of peoples?" Naruto asked. "Thats why we are practicing dobe." Sasuke said.

"Uh...well you see...my and Tenten had a bet on a game thing...and I let her win...so she wrote us a song..." Neji said, scratching the back of his head. Sasuke and Gaara glared at him. "You expect us to play a girl's song?" Sasuke asked. "Girls can right songs. What about Sakura's cousin?" Neji replied cooly. Sasuke rolled his eyes. "Lets try it! Its not like Shikamaru writing it for us!" Naruto said.

Neji took the peice of paper out of his pocket. "She wrote down the lyrics, and the tune, so we just have to follow it." Neji said.

Sasuke and Gaara looked down at the paper. "Fine. We will give it a try." Sasuke said. They got to their instruments.

Gaara started playing the piano.

It starts with one thing
I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try keep that in mind
I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time

Sasuke sang, Gaara, somewhat Neji in the backround.

All I know
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away

The four guys played until the very end. Naruto layed back in his seat, but it had no back, so he fell to the ground. Sasuke ran to the couch, and threw himself onto it. Neji fell to the ground. "Why the hell are so tired?" Gaara said, drinking his water. "I dunno..." Sasuke said.

"We havent practiced for a while. Good practice." Neji said. "Nice song Neji! Tenten is a good writer! What do you guys say? She should be our song writer." Naruto said, getting up. "Yeah." Neji said. "Do what ever." Gaara said.

Neji and Naruto looked at Sasuke. "Fine.." he sighed. Neji and Naruto smiled, and high fived. "YEAH!" Silence... Gaara cleared his throat. "...if we are done, Im gonna go." Gaara said.

Soon, the whole town heard about Madoka Haruno. And soon, it was Saturday morning.

Sakura woke up early, excited. The concert was going to start at 7:00pm. Sakura got dressed, and went out to search. What for? Well, she did say she might be able to get in her friends in for free.

Sakura searched somewhere to get Madoka's phone number. A bunch of teens were seen running down the street.

"WHERE DID SHE GO!" "I SAW HER THAT WAY!" "YEAH! FOLLOW HER!"

Sakura looked to where all the people were pointing at. She loojed to the left, and saw Temari, wide eyed, running to Sakura.

"SAKURA! SAVE ME!" Temari ran. "Temari? What the hell are you doing?" Sakura asked. "I must really look like Madoka. They think Im her..." Temari said.

"You really do. But Madoka has her hair in two pony tails, but thats no difference to them. Sorry, but I gotta go get the real Madoka's phone number." Sakura said. Temari nodded, and ran to Ino's house.

"INO! OPEN THE DAMN DOOR!" Temari yelled. She could see the fans coming closer. Ino opened the door, and saw the fans all over Temari. "PEOPLE! MY HOUSE! WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANT!" Ino yelled. "Um...your autograph..." a girl said. Ino's eyes sparkled. "Sure! You could of just said so!" she said sweetly.

"cough couch um...I ment her." she said, pointing to Temari. Ino's eyes turned to flames. "GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE!"

The fans ran, scared as hell of Ino. Temari sighed in relief. "Thanks Ino." Temari said. "No problem.." Ino said, folding her arms, glaring at the backs of the running fans.

"Um...they just think Im Madoka...right...well..bad time...see ya!" Temari said.

Sakura finally found her cousin's number. She dialed it on her cell. "Hello?"

"Madoka? Its me Sakura! Your cousin." Sakura said.

"Sakura? Wow! Havent talked for a while. What do you need?"

"Um...well, I heard your coming to our town for the concert thing, and since Im your dear dear cousin, I was wondering if you could let me and my 8 friends come for free?" Sakura asked sweetly. She could hear Madoka sigh.

"Well...you are my dear dear cousin.."

"Yup! Thats me!"

"Sure! I wanna meet your friends. Any of them can sing?"

"Yup! Four of the guys are in a band. I forget what its called...but they are pretty good.."

"Well, we will see if the audience thinks so."

"Your the best Madoka!"

"Yeah yeah. Talk to you later?"

"Yup. Bye!"

Sakura hung up, and squealed. "Yay!" she said, and ran to Sasuke'a mansion.

"Ill get the door." Naruto said. Neji and Gaara had left, but Naruto decided to let himself stay.

"Sakura?" Naruto said. "Yeah. You and Sasuke only here?" she asked. Naruto nodded. Sasuke came, and nodded at Sakura, as a hello. "I talked to my cousin, and she will let us in, and you guys can play with your band!" Sakura said. "Awsome! Thanks Sakura!" Naruto said. Sasuke nodded.

a/n: yes, okay, next chapter will be the concert. review please!
