Sachi and Sakura: Friends or Foes?
Sachi's P.O.V
It's has been a few hours when she was sleeping till she heard a knock on the door and slowly opened her eyes and she slowly sat up and looked over at the door and it was Sasuke walking in and he said, " Hey, it's time to go okay."
She nodded her head and he left the room so she could get dress, she got up and looked out the window and opened it to bring in some fresh air into her room. She sat down on the edge of the window and moved her hair out of her face and smiled and said, " Today is going to be a great day."
She got up and went out the door of her room and walked downstairs and noticed a note on the table and she goes over to it and picks it up and it said, ' Hey, sis. Sorry that I woke you up but I had to wake you up cause we need to get to class to find out who are we going to be in teams with, I'll see you there sis. From Sasuke.'
She shook her head and smile and placed it back on the table and looked on the table to notice that there was breakfast on the table for her and she smiled and she picked it up and started to eat it, and after I was done I went to my training ground where Sasuke and I shared and started to meditating. Meditation helps with chakra flow through your body and it makes it a little easier to control.
( Time skip to 1 hour)
I opened my eyes and looked back at the ground for a moment until I was finally able to get up. I made a hand sign and said, " Shadow clone jutsu." and when about three of me popped up, I got in a fighting stance, waiting for my clones attacks. People say you don't know you own limits and I figured a way around that unlike other people. I make clones and have them attack me like you would in a battle and see if I can beat myself and every time I do, I improve some.
The first me came at me ready with a kunai knife and back filpped until she reached me and tried to come down at me with her kunai, I moved right before she could and I upper cut her jaw and she disappeared.
The second and third came at me at the same time and swiped at me with their kunai on either side of me thinking they had the upper hand. I ducked their attack and punched the second in the stomach making her go into a tree panting pretty hard.
The third came back at me with a shuriken coming at me face and feet. I back flipped and just barely missed the attack. She moved really fast and she tried to swipe kick my feet and I jumped in the air but when I was still jumping she sent her fists at me trying to hit me in the stomach but I caught her hand and kicked her into another tree.
I landed on the ground and she tried to get up but I sent a few shuriken at her and pinned her clothes to the tree so she couldn't move just yet.
The first came back at me and threw a punch at me and hit me in the stomach making me grunt in pain. She threw another punch but I caught her fist and pinned them behind her back and kicked her to the ground with my foot and when she was down I stepped on her back and flipped myself over her.
The other two came to her side and helped her up, they all looked at me and they came back at me again and I focused my chakra as hard as I could and nimbly dodged their attack and when I opened my eyes I tried to activate the sharingan.
I didn't feel any different and this time it was too late for me to dodge or counter.
They all kicked me and punched me, making me fly into and break numerous trees. I was panting really hard and looked up with them staring at me. It was their final move and they were getting ready to finish the fight but something kicked my clone to a tree and she poofed away, the other two came at it and it jumped into the air to get away from them but when I took a closer look I saw it was someone that I know thanks to the Hokage.
Kakashi-sensei
He jumped at my clones and punched them both square in the jaw. Making another poof sound and they all disappeared. Kakashi-sensei came up to me and offered me a hand up and I nodded and took it and he lifted me up from the ground.
" Next time you try to activate the sharingan, try not to let your enemies get too close before you try it or you might get yourself killed." He told me. I nodded my head and smiled at him as he patted my head.
" What are you doing here Kakashi?" I asked.
" Well I had to do a drop off mission anyway,so I thought I'd wish you luck on your last day at the academy." He said as he smiled under his mask.
' That doesn't sound like something he would do.' I thought.
" I'll see you later, I don't want to be late for my meeting." He said as he waved goodbye and poofed away.
'But you're always late.' I thought. I shook my head and went back home and Sasuke was already at the door waiting for me to get ready for the academy. I was confused for a second but then I saw the sun rising and I didn't even realized I was out that long.
After I got dressed we headed towards to academy and we were the first ones there and one by one we all got seated, I had a smile on my face when I saw Naruto coming into the classroom.
'Good job Naruto' I thought smiling.
" Hey Naruto, so you graduated huh?" I asked him, he looked at me and gave me that same big grin that he gave me when we met and he pointed at his headband.
" Yeah, you and I are going to be ninja now, believe it." He said while I just smiled again at his childshness, a little later more and more people showed up to class and then Shikamaru came down the steps and noticed Naruto's headband.
" Eh? What are you doing here Naruto? This isn't for drop outs, you can't be here unless you graduate." He said.
" Oh yeah? Do you see this? Do you see this? Open your eyes Shikamaru, it's a regulation headband. We're gonna be training together, how do you feel about that?" He asked showing off his headband more and all I did was shake my head at what he was doing.
" Hmph."
" Let me put it to you this way. I look great in this headgear like it was made for me. Believe it." He said to Shikamaru.
Loud footsteps was coming from the hallway, and I had a feeling that I knew who was coming but I didn't care so I looked away. The door bursted open and I heard Ino and Sakura shout really loud.
" I'M FIRST!" They said at the same time panting.
And as they always do every morning, they argue of who is the best girl for my brother, for me I think they were both stupid and they actually think that Sasuke was interested in them. Naruto looked at the door and when his eyes landed on Sakura he started blushing and smiling. Sakura looked over this way and when she spotted Sasuke, she jogged over leaving Ino by herself. Unfortunately, Naruto thought she was going to talk to him.
" Hi Sakura, what's up?" Naruto asked as he was getting pushed over by her.
" Move it!" she yelled at him.
" Uh, good morning Sasuke." She said as he only looked at her, but not in the way like ' oh hey wanna sit down' but like ' great you're here.'
" Mind if I sit next to you?" She asked kindly.
" Back off forehead. I'm sitting next to Sasuke." Ino said coming up from behind her.
" I was here first." She growled.
" I walked into the classroom before you did. Everyone saw it."
"Dream on." Sakura hissed back at Ino.
" Actually, I got here before either of you." said some random girl.
" So did I. I'm sitting next to Sasuke." said another and one by one they all got into a huge fight over who got to sit next to him, but I always sit next to him since I don't really trust anyone else in the room except for Shikamaru, Chouji, Kiba and Akamaru, or maybe Hinata. She was pretty nice.
I don't feel like giving up my spot so they can drool over him up close because of their obsession for him.
I saw Sasuke give a look just saying how annoyed he really was. I put my hand on his shoulder and smiled at him telling him he wasn't alone on this one. Then my conversation started.
" Why does anyone want to sit next to Sasuke when Sachi is right next to him? Let me sit next to you and I promise you I will not misbehave."
" Dream on man, she wouldn't be interested in the likes of you, she would rather sit next to me."
" Why you two losers? Her heart and the seat next to her belongs to me."
" No, she loves me."
" Nuh-uh! Me!"
" Me!"
" Me!"
" ME!"
" ME!"
" ME!" and so the argument went on, now is was my turn to call them clueless. Why can't we be left alone? Naruto made a look of diasppraoval and hopped on the desk right in front of Sasuke scowling at him while Saskue just scoffed.
" Naruto! Hey, stop glaring at Sasuke!" shouted Sakura with Naruto looking at her in sadness that she's taking his side.
I saw them glaring even harder at each other and you could practically see the electric sparks of hatred towards each other. I sighed at their rivalry, well more accurately,would just be a one sided rivalry. The girls all started yelling at Sasuke to beat Naruto's butt for disrespecting him and for Naruto to back off, but Naruto was bumped by some person in front of them and I couldn't even react.
They were locking lips and when they finally snapped out of it they started holding their throats and coughing really loud and spitting trying to get rid of the kiss. Ordinarily I would blankly stare at them for something like this but right now, I really couldn't react to what just happened.
" Geez Naruto. They are vicious." said the guy who bumped him looking at the girls a little scared.
" Danger…" Naruto said in horror.
When he looked at all the girls they were all scowling at him and they looked beyond pissed off.
" Naruto….You are so dead." said Sakura in a scary voice, well not scary to me, but it was scary enough for Naruto. Sakura started to crack her knuckles.
" Hey, woah. It was an accident." He tried to convince them to chill out.
" You're finished." she said in that same voice. Naruto couldn't really respond but right when they were ready to pounce I stood up from my seat and made a scary face they didn't like, I didn't muck like it either but I had to use it when I really needed to.
" Say that again." I said making what Kakashi would say ' the Yamato creepy grin.' I never met the man but he talked about him sometimes. 'Apparently, it was even scarier than some' i thought. Everyone scattered off, even Naruto left. Me personally, I don't get scared when people give me dirty looks or when they look creepy. To me, that just means a new challenge. First, they ran away and the stared crying a little. I sat back down and obviously Sasuke wasn't scared of the face I made at them, but he was really surprised I could make a face like that to scare them off. Like I said, I don't always like to do that but if I was going to stop a fight from happening, I had to do it.
One everyone calmed down, they stayed as far away from me as they could. A little later, when the boys thought of it, they thought of it as a big turn on and got hearts for eyes saying it made me even hotter, to which I only sigh at how oblivious they are.
( Time Skip)
" As of today you are all ninjas. To get here you face difficult trials and hardships. But that's nothing, what comes next will be far more difficult, now you are only genin, first level ninjas. All the genin will be placed into three to four man squads. Each squad will be led by a jounin, an elite ninja." Iruka sensei said as Naruto lifted his head probably not hearing what he said.
" Well someone's gotta be on Sasuke's group. I wonder who." Ino said with confidence.
" I don't know." Sakura said glaring at her probably thinking she will be all his.
" We want each squad to have a balance of strength and abilities. That's how we set them up. I will now announce the squads." Iruka sensei said, he listed them off one by one and I zoned out until Naruto stood up and yelled" Iruka sensei, why does a great ninja like me have to be in the same group with a slug like Sasuke?" Naruto asked really loud.
Sasuke had one of the best scores out of all the graduating students tied with Sachi. Naruto, you had the worst scores." Iruka sensei while all the other kids laughed at him and l glared across the room and they all got the message and shut up before I scared them again.
" To create a balanced group, we put the best student with the worst student," Iruka sensei said.
" Just make sure you don't get in my way. Loser." Sasuke said not even looking at him. Naruto looked upset and glared at him.
" Hey, what did you say?!" Naruto asked.
" Hard of hearing?" He asked back making all the other kids laugh again but I didn't even have to do anything this time before they remembered what I almost did to them.
" Knock it off Naruto, sit down." Sakura scolded.
" After lunch, you'll meet you new jounin teachers. Until then, class dismissed." He said and when he did there was a hug crowd at the door waiting to get out.
I went into my backpack I carry with me with a first aid kit, some water and food, and emergency blankets. I grabbed Sasuke's lunch and looked for him until I saw him out in the courtyard looking a little lost. I went up to him and gave him his lunch.
We went to go eat our lunch and after I was done I had to go to the bathroom really quick. I left my lunch there and headed off. When I finally got back, Sasuke was gone and his lunch was on the floor spilled all over. I hoped I didn't make it taste bad enough to where he would drop it on the floor and leave it there. I started searching and I found him outside walking to Sakura, but she looked excited about something. I ran out from where I was hid myself in the trees to see what was going on. Sakura turned to him and she was blushing with a huge grin on her face.
" Sasuke you're back. Don't be so shy you bad boy. Are you ready now? I mean mentally prepared? Because I am. I mean, I'm ready to go?" She asked as he just walked right past her. That sentence made me shiver in disgust with goosebumps going up and down my back. That was not a good image.
" Hey, wait a minute." She begged him.
" Where's Naruto?" Sasuke asked.
" See? There you go changing the subject again. Anyway Naruto just picks fights with you. You know why he's so annoying? Because he wasn't raised right. He doesn't have a mother or father. No one to teach him right from wrong. Think about it, he just does whatever comes into his head. If I did things like Naruto, forget it. I mean my parents would get mad and I'd get in trouble so of course I don't do it. But if you don't have parents to tell you, how would you know? He's selfish and bratty. He's all alone." She said. Sasuke just glared at her and I felt like I wanted to punch her in the gut because of how little she knows of this situation.
" Alone." He started, probably knowing I was there and wanted to say something.
" Isolated." I finished jumping out from my hiding spot.
" It's not about your parents scolding you."
" You have no idea what it means to be alone Sakura, none at all." I said to her.
" W-Why are you saying that?" She asked.
" Because, you're annoying." My brother said to her making her freeze.
" Let's go Sachi." He told me as we walked away from for probably too stunned to say anything.
When she said those words, it reminded me of us.
' When we lost our family we only had each other and no one else to help us. She had parents who cooked her meals for her, praised her, and scolded her for whenever she needed someone to talk to and since they're older, they have more experience and have different things to say for different times. We are all alone, it's just us. Why can't she see all that she has? Is it not good enough for her, or does she want more?" I thought.
We kept walking and soon enough we were walking down to the bathrooms that also connected to the halls of the academy. When Naruto came storming out.
" Ah! Sasuke, what are doing here?! How did you get lose?!" He asked.
" I used the escape jutsu, a simple technique. You came storming in and ruined my lunch so that, I'm not happy about. But why did you turn into me?" He asked, well I guess that explains why his lunch was spilled on the floor. He says lunch is the best meal of the day no matter what people say so he probably wasn't happy about that.
" Because!" Naruto yelled making the clone jutsu sign.
" Ah, the same technique again?" He questioned.
" This time,you'll know how strong I really am." He said coming at Sasuke, but he stopped mid-air and dropped to the ground holding his stomach and saying he had to go to the bathroom and they all shoved at each other at once trying to get in.
" Loser." Sasuke muttered walking away with me behind him.
" What's wrong? I know something is wrong so don't dent it." He said to me, I guess it was obvious that conversation with Sakura was really getting to me and it was really making me upset.
" Sakura..She has no idea what it means to be alone. She can't even imagine life without her parents, she'd be too sad. But we lost our parents at a young ago and Naruto never met his and she thinks it's because his parents aren't there. It just makes me sick to think about it now." I said while I could feel myself trying to keep back my tears I didn't want to shed.
" Don't worry, I'm sure she got that message. That's why we said it right?" He asked and I nodded slowly.
" But it's just hard..really hard to think about." I said trying to remain monotone.
" Hey, it's alright. Don't worry about it, she'll get it. Don't worry about it." He said as I felt warn arms try to hug me.
He hugged me a lot when we were kids because of how I used to be a cry baby about losing our family when he was the strongest about it and I always needed comfort. He hadn't done this in a long time and I'm sure if he got spotted hugging me it would ruin his reputation at the academy but he knew I probably needed this.
It lasted for about a minute before he pulled away.
" She'll learn. Otherwise she's just as big of an idiot as Naruto." He said trying to help me out. I looked up at him and nodded my head smiling slowly in understanding.
We walked back to class and waited for our new sensei.
