They were late.

Sakura bursts into the classroom, a shoe in her hand, breathing heavily.

"…You must be Sakura?" The teacher—a man with a scar across his nose—says when the shock of her entrance has worn off.

She nods and hops to her seat, tugging her shoe on at the same time. Long pink hair bounces around her waist and Sakura sits herself in the seat next to a blonde boy.

The class stares at the girl who doesn't even care and they cannot contain their niggling surprise.

"Why d'you have pink hair?" A girl with an upturned nose and a snippy voice calls out.

Sakura, in the middle of pulling her hair onto her head and tying it up with a piece of string, stops and stares.

"What is it to you; it's not your hair."

"Yeah but it's weird."

"No it's not."

"Yeah it is. It's pink."

"So what? Your hair is black."

The girl continues to stare at her and Sakura glares.

"Why are you even talking to me?" Sakura growls out.

"You sat next to the demon." The girl answers and the boy next to her flinches. "Only a stupid person would do that."

Sakura glares, furious and launches herself over the desk, kicking out at the girl's face.

"Take it back you witch!" She bellows, "If anything, you're the demon!"

And that is how Sakura earns the adoration of a certain Naruto Uzumaki and Iruka-sensei gets a migraine.
