Geisha

Thanks for my reviewers

Suki () : Yea, I know, I don't think geisha's a whore they're just doing their job, well some of them might be... But I don't think so. I hope

Whoeva-I-Can-B : yea, most of my stories are sasusaku. And I guess that's the only couple I can make, there are some other I like sasosaku, itasaku, sasusakuita, and on and on but I'll think about it

Eternal Shadows () : oh…now I think I know what AU is. Hm… well yea it is, I think haha ;

Chap. 2

"So Sakura, this will be your room with some other girls from other places, they're training to become a geisha as well. I have a feeling you will be good friends with them." Kurenai handed her Yukata for sleeping. ( Don't forget, there's two kinds of Yukatas, one for summer ceremony and one for sleeping like when you go to Ryokan. Usually, Yukata for summer ceremony is very colorful and Yukata at Ryokan is made with 2 colors like dark blue and white, and other ones.)

"Thanks, Kurenai-san." Sakura smiled.

"Sakura, use 'Thank you' at this place. Geisha must learn how to talk too. And especially to their Sister." Kurenai stated and look down at her with her face still facing forward. "You will wake up at 6:00 tomorrow, and I expect to see you in my room by 7:00. You should have plenty time to wash your face, take bath, and get dressed." With that, Kurenai left with perfect posture.

Sakura stood there for a while. 'Wash face, Take bath, and get dressed.' She repeated several times, until she had it completely in her head. Then she looked around.

"Wow…" Sakura said to her self liking what she is seeing. It was nothing like her house, the room was huge, maybe about 10 geishas can sleep. With their own futon. There were 10 tansus, 3 doors to the room. The floor was Tatami as usual, and there were 10 lights.

"You'll be sleeping here, Hinata." A woman's voice snapped Sakura out of her thoughts, and looked back to see a blonde haired woman and a black short haired girl, who seems to look…very shy.

"Hai, Tsunade-san." The girl took the Yukata Tsunade handed to her and faced Sakura when she Tsunade left.

"Hi there…" Sakura broke the silence after about 30 seconds.

"he..he..hello.." The girl looked at Sakura.

"oh… you don't have to be so polite to me, my name is Sakura. It's a relief to know someone's new here."

The girl smiled at her statement. "Me too, I am glad. My name is Hinata." Hinata smiled.

"So…that must be your sister?" Sakura asked.

"Yes, her name is Tsunade-san." Hinata answered. "My mother said to be careful because she gets drunk a lot. Well, she's my mothers friend."

"Oh, That's nice to know… I guess. My sister's Kurenai-san. She looks scary, but she really isn't I think she's very polite, nice, and caring. Just like a geisha I want to become, but you never know. If you get to know them," Sakura turned her voice down to a whisper "They can be really bad" Sakura smiled.

The girls talked for a while, well not really for a very long time, until they realized it was very late. They didn't see any girls coming, only two of them were in the room.

"Kurenai-san said there are going to be other girls but…" Sakura's face showed confusion.

"Yes I know, I don't see any either…" Hinata finished the sentence. " I think we should sleep now.

The girls took out two futons from the oshiire and changed in to their Yukata and slept.

Next Day

The light stroke Sakura's face causing her to wake up. "Nnnnn" Sakura sat up on her futon and looked at the clock. '6:13' Sakura stared at the clock for a moment until she remembered what Kurenai said to her yesterday.

She gasped, "Hinata wake up!" she shook the sleeping Hinata. "We're going to be late!"

Her words 'we're going to be late' woke up her head.'

The girls rushed to their bathrooms and did what their sister told them.

Sakura and Hinata ran down the hall to their sister's room.

Sakura opened the door.

"What are you doing?" was the first thing when she entered the room.

"um… opening… the door." Sakura looked confused.

"Sakura, That's not how you do it." She sighed. "You sit down, and open the door, but don't stand up and face the door, close it then face the person." Sakura nodded.

"Anyway, sit down." Kurenai told Sakura.

"Hai." Sakura walked to the seat that's facing her sister.

"Sakura you will be learning the dance skill today. Don't think it's easy. It's really not. Lets get you changed first." Kurenai seemed like she want to waste time on talking. Sakura was talking every note of her sister.

Sakura and Kurenai went to the "Changing room"

"This looks good on you" she took out a yellow kimono and white obi. It seemed like she's picking it randomly.

'Eww… This is ugly.' Sakura thought looking at the Kimono she had in her hand.

"Chop chop I don't have all day you know. I'm a Geisha, and I'm using my time to train you" Kurenai snapped.

"Hai." Sakura went changed and came back.

Dance practice room

"Parallel Six, then step left on your heel, don't shift your weight, hold your Sensu in front of your face and don't look down. Then slowly put down your foot then shift your weight." Kurenai said as she demonstrated.

Sakura did exactly what her sister did, seconds ago. "NO!" Kurenai snapped. "Start over." Sakura stated over. "NO!" Kurenai snapped again. "Ugh! Sit up Sakura!" This time she yelled.

"Hai…" Sakura was so surprised that she yelled at her. She did it again and Kurenai said "Good"

"After that," Kurenai continued on.

Sakura's dancing lesson lasted until 9:00 and 10:00 was when she was supposed to go to sleep.

Sakura went back to her room. "Oh Sakura! I thought you were gone! Thank god you're back!" Hinata said in relief.

"I Hate my sister." Sakura said and collapsed on the futon.

"Sakura, what's wrong?" Hinata looked very worried, as she put on and on her shoulder.

"Kurenai's being so mean to me. (Sakura didn't say Kurenai-san) She's yelling, hitting, and all those. See my cheek?" Hinata looked at her cheek. It was red from the slapping.

Hinata gasped. "Do you want me to get cold water?" She asked.

"No, but let me sleep." Sakura said then fell asleep. Next day was Sunday she didn't have any training.

She woke up and saw that Hinata wasn't there, so she started writing a letter to her mother.

Dear Mother,

I hate this place. I hate everything here. I like it better home. Kurenai-san is so mean to me. I wonder why. Do you think every Geisha is trained like this? It's just terrible, but I won't give up. Only for you, mother. I won't. Please tell me what's going on there.

Your daughter,

Sakura

Sakura walked to the post office and gave it to the person. Then she walked the street back to her 'house'.

2 month later

Sakura was becoming a geisha already, but Kurenai didn't think she was ready so she didn't go on and do anything yet. Her reply from her mother never came. Sakura thought her mother has forgotten about her. She also thought that she send her here because she knew what kind of person, Kurenai was. Hinata wasn't going so good on her geisha lessons, but they were still friends.

Another 2 months later

Sakura was ready to go on, but her 'sister' didn't let her. Sakura was beginning to think that she was jealous because Sakura didn't take 5 years like her.

Sakura walked to Kurenai's room. She sat down and opened the door, like the second day she came here.

"Kurenai-san, I need to talk to you." Sakura entered and closed the door.

"What do you need Sakura?" Kurenai asked as she writes a letter.

"I need to know why YOU won't let me go on, and entertain myself." Sakura glared at her, It was her first time to glare at her sister.

"Didn't we discuss this already?" Kurenai said and sighed.

"Yes, we did, but I want to know it more clearly. What am I not ready for? What have I missed? What can't I do?" Sakura asked the questions slowly and sharp.

"Well, Sakura you're only 13. It has only been 4 months since you came here. Do you think you can go on and entertain your self so well?" Kurenai said as she looked Sakura in the eyes.

"I do think so." Sakura said still glaring at her sister.

"Very well Sakura." Kurenai smiled. "This is why I was training you so hard. I figured you would ask the question. Just-like-I –did when I was young."

"So… all those hitting, and slapping were just to prepare me for it?" Sakura was confused, but felt happy a little.

"Yes, Sakura, standing up on your sister like you did now is a hard decision to make. Just like that you have to be strong, and ready for anything." Kurenai said. "That's how my sister taught me."

"Oh…" Sakura smiled, understanding what she said. "So… it didn't take you 5 years?" Sakura asked.

"No, it didn't, this is the only way to train a girl to become a Geisha." Kurenai answered.

Sakura was now happy than ever. Her thought of her sister changed in a opposite direction,.

"Good, now you have learned, you will be going on soon, so I must teach you the steps. Let's say that your friend Hinata is going on too. She also learned the Geisha way. So you two will be practicing together. A special guest is coming soon." Kurenai said as she watched Sakura jump up and down with happiness.

"Here" Kurenai handed her a book. "That's a Geisha book, all the manners, techniques, dance, instrument playing and other things are on it. You have to learn that in one week Before "THEY" come." Kurenai said and dismissed her to her room where she have to learn the Geisha book.

Ok so that's Chap 2
