"SAKU-BAKA!" Ino shrieked shaking her friend. The pinkette sat in a dazed heap in the corner, her mind repeating what Kimmimaro had said.
For once, Inner sounded somber. We should have know… Who else would have Kaguya as their last name?
What do we do? I-I can't do what he wants… N-Not anymore. Sakura shivered in her mindscape.
Well snap out of it! Inner screeched. We'll keep on living life the way we have anyways… Besides, we haven't seen Mr. Tall, Dark, and Piercings in a long time… Wasn't this whole thing created to get back on boys?
Sakura sighed exasperated. Fine, but only this once will I ever take your advice… THIS TIME ONLY! DON'T GET A BIG HEAD!
Inner chuckled smartly Please when do I ever? And with that, she disappeared.
"SAKURA HARUNO ARE YOU LISTENING TO MEEEE?" Ino shrieked like a banshee.
Sakura forced a smile on her face before clutching her ears. "Shut up pig, you're making me deaf."
Tenten placed her hands on her hips and stared at Sakura, a somber air floating near her. "What was that about?"
Sakura let out a pained chuckle, "Tenny, I'm fine… I-It was j-just nothing!"
Hinata poked her index fingers together and sighed exasperatedly. "Tenten-Chan, we should get you all fixed up and go home… Do your injuries still hurt?"
Tenten laughed before wincing at the pain, "Ahh… I thing my rib is still cracked… Saku can you help?"
Sakura cracked a tiny grin. "Sure, lets just go home first… I have most of the materials there and I'm worried about infection."
"GET UP BAKAS, WERE GOING TO BE LAAAATE!" Ino's high-pitched greeting resounded across the halls and woke up the two irritated girls.
Tenten groaned as she tried to sit up. Sakura had bandaged up her ribs and reset them but a dull pain flared up whenever she moved her chest strenuously. She pulled herself up and walked down the stairs slowly as not to aggravate her wound.
"Tenten, how are you feeling?" Tenten turned around and gasped at the sight she saw. When Sakura got banged up in the fight, it was dark so they couldn't see the full extent of her injuries.
Sakura's entire left side of her face was blooming a dark purple bruise that no amount of concealer could cover. She had a huge open gash on her right arm, which was gaping and dripping blood. And she had large gaping swollen eyes with huge eye bags.
"S-Sakura are you okay?" Tenten worriedly asked her friend. Sakura just laughed and playfully smirked at Tenten. "I should be asking you about that. Who's the one with the broken ribs here hmn?"
When she saw Tenten still peering worriedly at her wounds she gave a humorless chuckle.
"It's only flesh wounds. Sure they look bad, but they don't hurt." Sakura waved Tenten off when she saw her about to complain.
Sakura turned back to Tenten and fixed her with a deadly serious look. Tenten blanched in fear. She had never seen an expression this serious on Sakura's face.
Sakura sighed worriedly, "Please bring your pocket knife wherever you go… It's just for safety precautions…"
Tenten nodded and made a move to go downstairs. Sakura trailed after her, looking behind her like she was paranoid or something was following her in the shadows…

"Finally you guys- HOLY MOLY, WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOUR FACE FOREHEAD!" Ino shrieked bloody murder as she took one look at Sakura.
Sakura groaned and buried her head into her hands. "M-fine Ino-pig, don't worry 'bout it." Her voice came out muffled but nonetheless the other three girls heard it.
Trying to be an atmosphere diffusor form Ino's open gaping at Sakura's face Hinata brought chocolate chip pancakes from the kitchen.
Immediately Tenten came towards the plate as Sakura lifted her head and sniffed the air appreciating. Ino stood and made a move to grab the tantalizing plate of pancakes but Hinata with her lightning fast reflexes jumped out of the way.
Forgetting about (Or ignoring) Sakura's face, Ino leaned back and waited for Hinata to serve them all pancakes.
Sakura let out a loud moan as she shoved the delicious confection down her throat. Ino let out a chuckle as she watched her best friend shovel the food into the gaping hole that was her mouth.
"Damn Forehead, you would think you're having an orgasm with how you're moaning like that." Ino whistled deviously.
Sakura blushed a furious red before sticking her tongue out at Ino childishly. "Stuff it Pig!"
"A-Ano, Are you both going to school with your injuries S-Saku-Chan and Ten-Chan?" Hinata blushed while looking at her pancakes.
Tenten nodded chewing loudly with her cheeks puffed up like a chipmunk. Ino glanced at her in disgust. "Yo, brown bimbo, close your mouth when you're chewing, it's grossing the rest of us out."
Tenten stopped mid-chew and turned towards Ino with a dark and dangerous aura gathering behind her. She glared venomously at Ino and bit out her words. "What. Did. You. Just. Call. Me?"
Ino paled and started shaking. She glanced at her bare wrist. "Oh look at the time." She was sweating like a pig now. "Gotta go get dressed…"
She stood up with impressive speed and rushed up the stairs slamming her door shut.
Tenten growled and shoveled the rest of Ino and her pancakes into her mouth.
Hinata gave a giggle at their antics and Sakura let out a light chuckle. She stood up and gave Hinata a light hug as she took the remaining dishes and piled them into the sink.
As Sakura walked up the stairs she heard Tenten grumbling downstairs about some blonde bimbo bitch and names and Hinata giggling.
Sakura gave a happy sigh as she heard their bickering. She decided to change into her clothes for the day. (Ino had slipped clothes and stolen everything comfortable so that she would wear the outfit made for her)
Sakura slipped on the light baby blue dress that went up to her upper thighs and settled on the low curve of her ass.
(She rolled her eyes exasperated. Of course Ino would make one part of her look like a slut. If she bent down or raised her arms the dress would lift to show her underwear.)
She casually tied a dark blue bow as a belt and then tied her hair into a messy braid giving her an innocent and cute look. She tied it with a blue tiny bow. After she slipped on some baby blue flats that matched her dress.
Just to be sake, Sakura slipped on her thigh knife. Satisfied she grabbed her bag and headed downstairs.
Ino sat on the couch scrolling through her social media. Her blonde hair was tied up in a half-up-half-down hairdo. She had a short white crop top and a dark purple skirt. It was shorter than Sakura's dress (Which was saying something. You could literally see her panties from where she stood) She also had a dark maroon jacket. On Ino's feet were a pair of platform sneakers. She had her pepper spray necklace Sakura saw.
Tenten and Hinata clambered down the stairs next. Tenten had shrugged on a black muscle T-shirt (You could see the outlines of weapons and bandages from her shirt) and white ripped jeans. She had on black boots and had tied up her hair with two buns.
Hinata had on a fluffy yellow dress with a large white bow on the front. She had pulled on a stiff white jacket with silver buttons. Hinata had also grabbed some green-heeled flats. For protection, she had tied up her hair into a braided bun with two senbon sticking out of it.
After nodding at them, the girls ran out of the house to school.
"Hello students I'm back- Sakura are you okay?" Kakashi had stopped mid excuse and looked at the two students sitting in the back.
The blue haired Akatsuki member glanced at Sakura then faltered.
Sakura grumbled under her breath. "Tenten's the one with the broken ribs dumbass."
Tenten hearing her comment snorted. Kakashi-Sensei gave her a look but let them go to there seats.
The blue haired girl gave Sakura a look of concern when she saw Sakura wince and rub her head.
Tenten gave a groan as she sank into her chair and the green haired boy just sniffed at her. Hinata helped her settle down and grabbed her books.
Tenten mouthed a thank you and Hinata just smiled.
"Today, I will be assigning you and some others a group project. The topic can be anything you chose as long as it's from the European Renaissance." Kakashi-Sensei said, his eye crinkled up in a mockery of a grin.
Immediately, the entire class groaned on cue. Sakura mentally face palmed as Inner started screaming profanities at the teacher.
Kakashi dryly laughed, rubbing the back of his head with his hand. "I will now list out the groups so listen carefully."
Group 1: Ino, Zetsu, Temari, Takeshi
Group 2: Karin, Tenten, Ami, Tobi
Group 3: Sakura, Konan, Hinata, Deidara…
Group 4: ….
Sakura stopped listening after her group was called. She sighed and looked at Hinata. At least she got one familiar person to work with.
The blue haired Akatsuki girl turned towards her and opened her mouth to speak but stopped.
"KONAN! WE'RE ON THE SAME GROUP UN!" An energetic voice screeched out. The blue haired girl groaned and stiffened in her seat.
Sakura making eye contact with Hinata turned back at the girl. So her desk partner was Konan. Out of the corner of her eye, she could see Hinata redden and start shaking.
She turned to the sound of the voice.
Deidara Iwa. Her inner supplied, her voice biting and sarcastic. He is the exact same as Naruto… And he is Hinata's target.
What the Hell am I supposed to do? TWO FUCKING AKATSUKI MEMBERS AS MY GROUP PARTNERS…
She felt Inner stop and stiffen. Her voice was moderately quieter. Didn't Mada say something about the Akatsuki?
Sakura thought back to the last time she had talked to him… The day after the breakup.
She froze as bile rose to her throat. Ita-kun is in it… That's what bastard said.
Pushing her conversation with Inner to the back of her mind she shook her head.
Konan looked at her and spoke. "You're one of my partners." She looked at everywhere but Sakura's face. "We can meet at my heart to do the project."
Sakura stiffened but let out a hard nod. "Fine with me, I'll tell Hinata." Her voice came out biting and crisp. Sakura inwardly winced at her tone.
Konan just let out a small nod. Turning towards Tenten, Sakura nodded her head in the signal to tap Hinata on the shoulder. Hinata squeaked and turned her head.
Sakura let out a tiny smile on her face. Hinata was just so adorable...
Shaking her head, Sakura cleared her thoughts. Hinata glanced at her questioningly, her hair falling into her face.
Sakura gestured with her head to Konan before mouthing 'partner' Hinata blinked owlishly before nodding in confirmation.
Satisfied, Sakura turned to her attention to the front and blocked all voices to talk to her Inner. She needed some advice.
Snake-bastard and Pa-Madara are both people we need to avoid. Inner said solemnly. We still owe Pedo-Sensei two years... And I know he will be coming back.
Sakura nodded in agreement. Tonight we make a plan. I remember Snake said that Mr. Carrot had been his supplier… And it doesn't help that Snake might have mentioned me to him. Wait! When I first met him he didn't say anything… Maybe
Inner cut her off. Whatever the case, we need to be careful, we're going to Mr. Carrot's house and that might trigger some unwanted memories.
Sakura shivered and nodded in confirmation before standing up and leaving.
"DAMN IT ALL TO HELL!" Ino's voice rang through the courtyard. "I DON'T KNOW ANY OF THE FUCKERS AND I SURE AS HELL AIN'T GOING TO THEIR HOUSES1"
Tenten snickered at Ino before stopping. "HOLD ON! T-THAT MEAN THAT YOU AREN'T IN MY GROUP?"
Ino gave her an incredulous look. "YEAH, NO SHIT SHERLOCK! WERE YOU NOT FUCKING LISTENING TO THAT STUPID-ASS TEACHER OF OURS?"
Tenten glared at Ino. "UNLIKE YOU YA BLONDE BIMBO, I WAS THINKING OF MORE IMPORTANT THINGS?"
Ino screeched at Tenten. "LISTEN YOU MOTHERFUCKING BITCH, I-"
Sakura tuned the two arguing girls as she turned to Hinata. "We're meeting at Konan-San's place." She glanced at the sky noticing that it was getting darker. "You should bring warmer clothes that are comfy, cause it might get colder."
Hinata nodded hesitantly. "A-Ano Sakura-Chan, d-did we decide on a topic?" She asked. Sakura shook her head, faltering slightly when she saw the Akatsuki enter the courtyard.
Sakura smiled at Hinata and nodded comfortingly. "Don't worry Hina-Chan, we'll discuss everything with Konan-San and Deidara-San once we-"
Feeling a finger tap her back Sakura panicked and turned strait socking a punch in the attacker's face. When she glanced down at the prone figure groaning in pain she realized that it was Deidara.
"Ahh, Gomen, I didn't see you there Deidara…" Her face flushed red with embarrassment as the other people behind him snickered.
Deidara huffed and pushed himself up, his golden hair tangled up. "Damn girl, you can really pack a punch, yeah."
"What happened to your face?" Pein stoically asked as he casually stepped forward, his piercing glinting evilly in the light.
Sakura suddenly felt hostile remembering what her and her Inner talked about. "None of your business. Mr. Carrot!"
Immediately all conversation stopped as everyone registered what Sakura had said. Ino had openly gaped while Tenten was smirking. A silver-haired Akatsuki member was literally clutching his stomach doubling over trying to stifle his laugher.
Yuga Hidan, known for his worship to the God Jashin, a masochist at heart, and Tenten's target. Inner smirked helpfully.
Sakura froze as she realized what she had called him. "Damn… Uh I meant hi?"
Pein just stared at her darkly. He took a step forward and Sakura stood up and walked up to him, her nose reaching his chest.
"Damn me and my short height… WHY GOD WHY?" She mumbled to herself. Pein hearing her raised an amused piercing laden eyebrow.
Snickering to herself Ino pushed her foot out waiting for the right moment.
Seconds later, Sakura started walking backward only to trip over Ino's foot. Shrieking she grabbed the thing closest to her which happened to be Pein's cloak to steady herself.
Unfortunate for her, Pein surprised by the added weight tumbled forward falling on Sakura. With the added weight they both fell on the floor.
Ino snickered at the sight. Sakura had her dress hiked up embarrassingly high and had wrapped her legs around Pein's waist. Pein had also trapped Sakura between his arms.
Sakura turned as red as a tomato when she realized the compromising position she was stuck in.
Pein had cloudy thoughts when he looked at the pink haired vixen trapped underneath him. Her dress had hiked up high and her soft creamy thighs were wrapped around his waist. He could see her cotton panties from where he was laying.
"A-Ahh, C-Could you p-please get off." Sakura stuttered as she looked at his chest. She absentmindedly looked at his muscles. Damn this man worked out.
They both tried getting up at the same time, which caused Pein and Sakura to slip and end up in another embarrassing position.
This time, Sakura straddled Pein, sitting on top of his lap. She grew increasingly embarrassed as she could feel a very large bulge in where she was sitting.
Sakura squeaked before hurrying off of him. As if a flip had been switched, the pinkette's mood went from embarrassed out of her mind to downright murderous.
"Ino." She cracked her knuckles threateningly. Sakura had on a murderous smile and the dark aura surrounding her made Ino squeak in fright and try not to piss her pants.
"Y-Yes?" Ino stuttered.
"You're dead."
Soon the courtyard was filled with the sound of screams of girlish terror and laughter from the watching members.
