-Third Person POV-
Samantha had awaken to the call of her bladder and tiredly opened her eyes. She was shocked for a moment to see that she could see a two young adults on her left and one on her right.
The one directly to her left was pink haired and had porcelain white skin. Samantha could barely make out that she had a rough texture type of vest that she figured was fleece and seemed to be the same color of the woman's hair. Samantha knew in her heart that was Sakura Haruno. That was HER Sakura haruno.
Sat up and saw the other girl behind Sakura. She was purple haired and had ivory skin. She was wearing her school outfit from the show Negima. A little farther to the window and the wall there was Naruto and Sasuke. Sasuke had a white kimono and a purple rope belt as well as a black shirt under and a pair of black pants. Naruto was wearing a white and orange jacket that was somewhat too small for him but he wore a black shirt with a green stone necklace and he had his orange jumpsuit pants that were at least six inches too short.
She looked in front of her to the closet and saw that There were a few hedgehog humanoids that looked an awful lot like Sonic, Shadow, Tails, Amy, and Cosmos. Directly down from her. To the right corner of the room there was a few girls from the Negima world, Evangaline, Negi, Asuna, the robot girl, Kaede, and her swords man friend. They were sleeping together in a group. Samantha wasn't sure as to why nodoka was here while her classmates were over there.
Samantha turned to her right and saw that a girl that looked an awful lot like Ino Yamanaka was sleeping next to her. She was Not alone that over on the other side of the wall to Samantha's right There was Choji, Shikamaru, Neji, Lee, Tenten, Shino, and Kiba with his dog asleep over 's bladder was then calling to the toilet room and she somehow managed to get up and not wake up the girls next to her and then managed to get into the toilet room.
' Wow...I didn't realize just how many people were living with me…' what was odd is that she could hear her kitchen sink running. Samantha got up quietly and made her way to the kitchen.
Once she was out she went into the kitchen to see Hinata cleaning dishes and cooking some eggs. She had already sliced up some oranges and half of a banana was eaten as well as an orange. In front of the sink at the circle table Samantha bought.
Samantha found herself just staring in awe and thinking ' Hinata...is doing my dishes...and she's actually cooking...that is definately food I smell...wow…' Hinata then happened to turn around.
" Oh, Samantha, good-good morning." She hadn't heard Hinata stutter in a long time and was kind of curious as to what brought this along.
" Good morning… Uh...How...are you cleaning my dishes?"
" Well lets see...you bought soap, and there's hot water so...I decided to do your dishes." Hinata said in a matter of fact tone.
" Yeah but…" Samantha stumbled on her words for a moment then replied. "you're...not supposed to be physically here...right?" She put her pointer finger to her mouth in a thoughtful look.
" Hm...yeah, I suppose that would have been the case...but...I'm physically here now…" Samantha couldn't help but have a look of dread on her face when she continued.
" Actually I think everyone is physically here now that I think about it…"
" How, when , where and why?" Samantha asked.
" How...I'm not sure." Hinata said, humoring her questions. " When...about five hours ago...Where...here obviously...why…I don't have the slightest clue…" Samantha found herself looking at her feet with dread hitting her hard.
' They're here physically now...so what the hell happened to their counterparts?'
" Oh. um...i made some breakfast."
" Thank you very much." Samantha said. " I gotta use the restroom first, I'll be right back." Samantha went to use the toilet room despite having already used it and Hinata found herself sighing.
' When did things end up like this? Like...i know i'm supposed to be in love with Naruto to her...but...Its like...something about her makes her so lovable...perhaps...its that she tries to be an honest person?...' She ended up stopping washing the dish in her hand. ' Why do I have such feelings for her...when I know...she's only really interested in Sakura?'
Samantha walked back out of the toilet room and sat down at the table she bought. She was given a plate of eggs with a sliced orange and banana and a glass of milk.
" Thank you Hinata, this food looks really good!" She grabbed her fork and began eating. She knew it was bland from lack of seasonings...but she was sincerely grateful to have something to eat that she didn't have to prepare. Both Her and Hinata ate in silence when Hinata finished the dishes.
" Hey...Hinata…" Samantha asked suddenly.
" Yes Samantha?"
" If you guys are physically here now...doesn't that make a paradox?" Samantha asked, making a point. Hinata put a finger to her right cheek in thought.
" I'm not sure...i mean it's highly possible that we can coexist together in this reality because we aren't from the same reality because you wouldn't have been able to meet a younger version of Naruto if he and Naruto were the same version of themselves."
" That makes more sense…"
" You're worried about something...I can tell…"
" If you guys are really physically here now...I can't keep you here without Mitoko-san being informed. And If we have to be in a different apartment we need those who can to have a job...but...You guys wouldn't be able to be what you were before…" Samantha trailed off.
" Because we're a time and space paradox now right?"
" Yeah…"
" We'll think of something." Hinata said with no worry in her voice.
" Wait...didn't the Hokage say that he had traversed into another world?" Samantha asked, suddenly realizing what the hokage had said to her was true.
" I have no idea if that is what he meant…"
" But if he had...maybe we could take you to speak with him about the situation?"
" I'm sure that we could manage without that."
" Well...it's...worth a thought..should someone see through the genjutsus...i'm sure you guys will have to use a genjutsu to work here…"
" Well we could become shinobi under a different name."
" There is that...but...what about you and sasuke...and naruto...you guys...you're very similar to your own younger selves…" Samantha said with concern. Then Naruto suddenly walked into the kitchen.
" Well...there is that...but if we can pull off a genjutsu that is more permanent than we can go about our life but we couldn't be ourselves…" Naruto stated as he walked into the kitchen.
" Naruto-kun." Hinata blushed and began twiddling her fingers together.
" Good morning Naruto." Samantha said, waving a hand. Naruto walked up to the table and sat down in one of four chairs in the kitchen.
" So what we need to do is figure out how to live here by not being ourselves...correct?"
" Yeah...I mean...I was suggesting that you guys could come with me to the Hokage on monday and see what we can do with his help."
" Yeah that would be a nice idea...but we don't know if he knows this whole thing can occur." Naruto stated. Hinata looked nervously at Naruto and replied.
" Well, samantha had said that he had told her that he had the same experience we did."
" Which means what exactly."
" I believe he would understand your guy's predicament and can help find a solution that doesn't break peoples minds."
" I mean...we could work for anbu or we could go under different names. Though that would be difficult with me Sasuke and hinata...I'm not sure even if Sakura and Ino can pull it off…"
" Well...Its that or...maybe we could co exist with your younger versions…" Samantha furrowed her brow at the thought of her own words. " actually maybe not...that could just be very awkward."
" But most of these things are like they used to be when we were young."
" You know that younger version of naruto really adores you."
" Well yeah i'm not an ass hat and i'm going to play ignorance to most people about his...secret."
" You mean you know he's the Kyubi's Jinjuriki." Naruto stated.
" Yes, which is why i'm not letting that bother me."
"You know I kind of wondered something...there's been...a little discrepancy in my memories." hinata stated.
" What...do you mean?" Samantha asked with a look that spoke fear and dread.
" Like...i remember things that i know didn't happen...Or...hadn't happened...Its like…"
" You're fusing with your younger self here."
" yeah...Its...really strange…"
" I think that this conversation is bringing Samantha to the brain grill…" Samantha just looked like her brain had fried and all she could say is.
" I wish i could just have a cup of coffee...i'm so not awake for this…"
"Samantha?" Samantha looked up in surprise.
" Sakura...Hi." Sakura looked at the three of them.
" You guys are...able to be seen by her?"
" Yeah…" Naruto replied.
" I mean I was even able to make breakfast and cook this morning."
" Yeah the food was good too."Samantha said with a smile. Sakura's stomach growled and she asked.
" Is there a chance you have more?"
" Um i could cook some more if you'd like."
" Yeah. That would be amazing Hinata-chan." Sakura had replied with a smile. She sat down next to Naruto and Hinata's chair
" There has been some discrepancy in this world's reality so to speak." Naruto said.
" K, i'm listening."
" Well we're here physically now, which makes Samantha not schizophrenic anymore."
" Okay."
" We are trying to figure out how we can still contribute to this household now...Since we are not supposed to be here right now due to our younger versions of ourselves existing here." naruto continued. " I mean Samantha suggested that we go to the hokage and explain our predicament. That way she believes we could continue our carriers as shinobi if we wanted to. We just couldn't be using our real names."
" Yeah...our identities are already existing as different people from us."
" What's strange is that i'm starting to have memories that aren't really my own." Hinata stated.
" Yeah I'm starting to get the same feeling." Naruto replied. " I mean considering what Samantha did with my younger self...its like I'm seeing his memories as my own."
" Okay...so…" Sakura suddenly shook her head. '"Wow...I am too all of a sudden." Sakura and Hinata and Naruto held their heads with their hands. Samantha got up and went to both Sakura and naruto.
" Hey you okay?" Samantha had reached for her shoulder and found herself freezing. ' are they really here? Is my hand really not going to go through her?" She found herself feeling the fleece of Sakura's vest. Samantha's hand traveled to her hair and her ear...It was...magical... for Samantha because she longed for this say for many years...
' she's still so beautiful to me…' Samantha did not realize she was about to cry. Sakura found herself being brought back by Samantha's touch and she saw the tears within her brown eyes.
" Samantha...why are you crying?" She asked softly.
" You're...I...I can see you...and...feel your skin… your hair...all of it...I...really see you...you're...you're all really here…" The whole impact of the situation hit her… She was no longer that crazy schizophrenic who was never listened to...who was never wondered about...she...they...really were here...she wasn't crazy anymore…
Sakura stood up and took her into her arms...Samantha held on for dear life...she just...couldn't believe this was real and it felt like a dream...that one moment she would wake up… She experienced a dejavu in that moment...That in a time long ago...she had seen all this occur once before in a dream...now she was living that very dream...she...wouldn't have to wake up to the nightmare of her life this time…
" Sakura…" Samantha said quietly…
" I'm not crazy anymore...and...I'm really home…" Samantha's words meant everything to Sakura...those words were the words Samantha had longed to say for all of her life...She had become a citizen of Konoha...Samantha...was in her eyes finally home…
Sakura brushed her hand through Samantha's now somewhat curly hair...The pixie cut Samantha got on Saturday had made her hair curl. Then...after Samantha calmed down...she dared to move Samantha's head to her own and kiss her tenderly…
Sakura and Samantha had waited for this moment for many many years...Now..Samatha was where she wanted to be. In Sakura's arms and in Sakura's home world… Samantha didn't pull away from Sakura's lips at first...but she did just to cuddle into her arms for a few moments. To them they were in their own little world...even if it was just a few minutes.
" Are you okay now?" Sakura asked Samantha. Samantha nodded. " I am now...Thank you...for not...not giving up on me…" Hinata and Naruto looked at them with envy. They had indeed felt the same love for either one...but the lord only knew why they, even though they had wanted what sakura was given by Samantha…
" What in the world am I missing here?" Sasuke asked and Samantha kind of jumped at his voice.
He looked like he was tired and irritated. Yet he calmly went into the fridge for the milk and then brought out a cup and poured himself a cup of milk and took it to the table where naruto sat and sat upon his lap.
" R-really sasuke?" Naruto began to blush. " What are you going to do about it?" Naruto became bashful and replied.
" p-pervert…"
" I'm going to ignore what I just heard.' Samantha said. Sakura replied to her. " It's best not to overthink it."
" Got a problem with us?"
" no. I know I may be a biased ass but no not really." Beneath the sheets were their personal privacy type of acts and Samantha had no intention of becoming involved with that.
" Well at least she's honest. Which reminds me...who are the people in the living room?" Sasuke asked.
" Apparently they are in the same predicament we are." Sakura replied. He nodded and quietly drank his milk like he wasn't sitting on Naruto's lap.
" So are you guys...you know…" Naruto asked Sakura and Samantha. Samantha was looking hopefully at Sakura. Sakura looked at her with a smile. " Yeah...I think so. Do you want to be?"
" I'd be lying if I said no."
" But like...how is this going to work…" Naruto asked. Sakura replied. " We're going to need a bigger apartment. But we can't do that without jobs. So we either need to see the hokage and be re evaluated to become shinobi or we could get normal jobs using a genjutsu to keep our identities hidden."
" I honestly suggested to speak with the Hokage-" Samantha began and then Sakura interupted somewhat rudely
" because he's been through our situation somewhat I know." Samantha found herself becoming silent.
" We really should think about it as a group." Hinata suggested.
" I think that Myuzaki might becoming over this morning and I need to get dressed for that." Samantha said to Sakura and pulled away from Sakura.
" Right." Sakura let go of her.
" I love you." Samantha said. Sakura smiled and replied.
" I love you too." Samantha went to grab her clothes and take a shower/bath...Sakura found herself wondering…' Can we really live the life we wanted with each other now?' She was worried because in her heart she knew...something about this whole thing...was... very wrong…
And as Samantha began getting dressed...she also found something strange...her own memory...was telling her...she...she herself...had something to do with this whole situation.
' But...why am I thinking that?'
A thought in the back of her mind said. ' you know the truth...you just need to remember…'
