Last Time:
"Sakura and Ino are going to hate me when they find out what plans I have in store for them." Tsunade muttered to herself as she brought out a bottle of sake and poured herself a drink.
Suddenly she heard some rustling in her closet, but instead of putting up her guard all she did was smile. "Kakashi if you want your book back you have to try harder than that."
She heard swearing and the sound of someone using the transportation jutsu. "It's going to be a long night." cackled Tsunade as she drank her sake completely forgetting about the mountian of paperwork that still needs to be done.
Regular talking and in present
Thoughts, lyrics, and flashbacks
Chapter 2: The Punishment
It was 7:00 in the morning and Ino couldn't sleep at all. She tried really hard, but she just couldn't sleep. 'This is all forehead's fault and now I have to suffer because of her.'
She knew that she should put some of the blame on herself, but her pride was too strong for her to do that sort of thing. All she wanted to do was sleep before she had to go back to the Hokage's office and face her punishment.
'I bet that Sakura's freaking out right now. She never could stand being in trouble.' Ino smirked when she thought about that. At least she wasn't the only one suffering. 'Yeah I bet that she stayed up all night freaking out. Serves her right for dissing my hair.'
Ino didn't know why she was happy with the thought of Sakura suffering, but she was. She gave up trying to sleep a while ago and just thought of ways that would make Sakura suffer as she started to get dressed. Leaving a note to her parents saying that she was going out, she walked out the door.
It was way too early for any of her friends to be up because the sun hasn't even risen yet. Most of her friends got up in the afternoon along with her.
Also it was too early to go to the Hokage tower and she didn't feel like standing their and waiting. So she decided to walk around the forest and clear her mind.
Actually she really didn't feel like talking to anybody for she was worried that she would snap at them. Oh she was still pissed off about getting cake in her hair. That was a bitch to get out and it costed her two whole bottles of shampoo and conditioner. That was money that came out of HER own wallet.
The blonde was so caught up in her thoughts that she didn't even notice that she walked onto Team 7's old training grounds. She was quickly brought out of her thoughts when she heard the sound of splashing water.
Ino quickly masked her chakra and hide behind a tree so that she wouldn't be seen. Waiting a couple of mnutes she realized that no one saw her because she still heard the sound of water splashing.
Deciding to check who was making that noise she slowly looked over the tree and froze in her tracks.
It was a person making that noise all right. By the figure she knew it was a girl around her age, but she couldn't really tell who exactly it was. She looked to be fighting by herself on the water even though it really looked like she was dancing.
Ino let out the breath that she didn't even know that she was holding. Now she was curious about who this girl was. Using her stealth to remain hidden she jumped on a tree branch then jumped to another getting closer and closer till she was in the tree closest to the lake.
Now the sun was starting to rise making it even more easier for Ino to tell who the girl was. Once she got a glimpse of her hair she already knew who it was and she held back a gasp of shock.
Her pink hair swayed with every graceful move she made. There's only one person in all of Konoha with pink hair and that is her enemy Sakura.
'What the hell is she doing here?' Ino thought to herself when she saw Sakura doing flips on the water. The girl wasn't wearing her normal knee high boots, but instead was barefoot. She also wasn't wearing her pink skirt so she was just wearing her skin tight black shorts. Her red vest with her clans family symbol on the back was still on though.
Suddenly out of no where an exact copy of Sakura popped out of the water with a kunai in hand. If the real Sakura didn't notice then it would have been fatal, but she did.
Jumping out of the way Sakura put on her black leather gloves. Ino never really understood why she does put them on in the first place.
Sakura ran at her copy and punched the clone in the stomach. Of course the clone disappeared once her super human strength connected with the copy's stomach.
Once that clone was done 5 more showed up surrounding the young cherry blossom. It looked like it didn't even surprise her in the least so she waited for the clones to attack her first.
That's how it went for over an hour. Ino couldn't help but watch the girl train. She's surprised that Sakura didn't keel over right now from exhaustion. Shadow clones takes a lot of chakra to use, plus she use's her chakra enhanced punchs, and she's walking on water using chakra. How much freaking chakra does that girl have?
Ino looked at her watch as realization came into her mind. It was 8:45 that means that they only have 15 minutes to get to the Hokage's office. Sakura still didn't know that she was watching her and she didn't plan on her finding out.
Besides she needed to move she lost the feeling in her butt a long time ago. As quietly as she could she left the training grounds, but not before snapping a twig in the process. Ino stopped and closed her eyes hoping that Sakura didn't hear it. Unfortunely luck isn't on her side today.
All the clones quickly disappeared as Sakura snapped her head in Ino's direction. "Hello who's there?" She questioned walking towards the shore.
'Oh shit oh shit oh shit. Stay calm Ino she won't find you.' The blue eyed blonde thought to herself.
"Ino?" Sakura asked her voice sounding very confused.
'Son of a bitch! Okay Ino explain yourself and try not to freak out.' Ino quickly put on a scowl and turned around to face Sakura. "What do you want?" Ino questioned the pink haired girl. She tried not to sound rude, but it didn't work.
Sakura's jaw tightened and she clenched her fists. "I should be asking you that question. This is my teams training grounds." She made sure to put empathisis on I and you to prove her point.
Thinking quickly Ino came up with an idea. She put on a relaxed face, crossed her arms over her chest, and leaned on one leg. "Asuma told me to go find you so that you wouldn't show up late." She told her acting like she couldn't care less.
Then a smile crossed Sakura's face as she looked at Ino closely. The blonde could feel her smile falter slightly, but that was enough to convince Sakura. She slowly walked up to Ino till they were face to face their noses almost touching. "Your lying."
Suddely it felt like the room was a hundred degrees hotter. Ino wasn't use to someone being so close to her. She felt a blush appear on her cheeks as she stuttered. "N...no..I...m...no...not." She mentally cursed herself for being so stupid.
Apparently that was all the proof Sakura needed because her smile widened and she slowly turned around to where her boots and skirt was. Once she approached her things she quickly put them on and started walking back towards Ino.
She was about to walk past the girl, but she turned her head and looked at Ino. "Here's a little piece of advice. Next time you plan on spying on my training try to mask your chakra better." Then she smiled, turned her head back, and started walking away from Ino.
At first Ino was left there gapping at Sakura in shock, but soon she realized that this whole time the pink haired girl was playing with her.
"How dare she treat me like some second rank genin. ARGG!! She will regret the day that she messed with Yamanaka Ino." Ino vowed as she walked the same path that Sakura took a couple of minutes earlier.
------------
Ino reached Tsunade's office with a minute to spare. Not even bothering to knock because she knew they were expecting her, she just opened the door and walked in.
What greeted her was the sight of Tsunade sitting behind her desk with Kakashi to her left and Asuma to her right. Two chairs were placed in front of the desk and one was already occupied by Sakura. Ino glared at the girl before walking over and taking the last remaining seat next to her.
"Good everyone is here on time. Now we can get this thing started." Tsunade said a light smirk on her face. For some reason that smirk made both girls a little uneasy.
Tsunade leaned forward in her chair and placed her chin on her hands. First she looked to Sakura. "Sakura," Then she turned to look at Ino. "Ino." She paused for a while to add some suspense.
She cleared her throat before continueing. "After a lot of debateing we have come to a conclusion on how to deal with your punishment. You will be set to do two tasks and if you fail even one you both we be stripped of your ninja rank and be permanently considered a Konoha citizen."
Now that caused major outrage with the two girls. "WHAT! YOU CAN"T DO THAT!" They both screamed in unison.
"Actually I can and I will if I have to. This rivalry has been getting worse and worse between you two and I'm sick of it. I'm also not the only one because your sensei's and fellow teammates agree with me too." Tsunade seriously spoke.
Both girls held in their tempers and waited for the Hokage to continue. Of course they were plotting the demise of their fellow teammates that went against them.
'Naruto is sooo going to get it. I will beat him so badly that he won't be able to eat ramen for a month. Then I'll steal every copy of Icha Icha that Kakashi owns and burn them all before giving them back to him. They will feel my wrath.' thought Sakura as she crossed her legs and leaned back in her chair.
'Shikamaru and Choji are dead. I'll steal every single potato chip bag that Choji has and eat them all in his face. Then I'll beat Shikamaru to a pulp before using my soul transfer jutsu and make him do the most embarrassing stuff in the world. No one will ever look at him the same way. Asuma's too nice to me for me to hurt him. Besides he already has Kurenai to rain him in.' Ino thought as a wicked glint appeared in her eyes.
"The first task is that you two are going to be living together in an apartment by yourselves." Tsunade told them waiting for them to freak out.
"WHAT! I refuse to live with...with..with that thing." Ino declared as she stood up and pointed an accusing finger at Sakura.
All Sakura did was glare at her. "Yeah and I'm really looking forward to living with you. I'd rather live with that preverted toad hermit and Naruto at the same time than live with you."
"Is that me or is someone ready to be a citizen of Konoha." Tsunade said as she pretended to hear something outside.
Ino and Sakura quickly shut up and sat back down. Tsunade turned to look at them with a smile. "Guess it was just the wind. Ino we already informed your parents and they were kind enough to pack up your things and place them in the apartment."
"What even my own parents turned against me." Ino said a loud as a look of disbelief crossed her face. Then she noticed something with this arrangement. "Wait what about forehead girls stuff? Didn't her mother pack it for her?"
The room became really quiet once Ino uttered those words. She looked at Sakura seeing a like of pain on her face, then she turned to the adults to notice that they were all pale.
'What the hell did I say wrong?' wondered Ino as the silence was starting to become too much.
Tsunade decided to break the silence. "The reason Sakura doesn't need to pact her stuff is because you will be living in her apartment. There's plenty of room for two."
At this piece of information Ino looked at the other girl with a raised eyebrow. "Since when did you live in a apartment by yourself?"
"None of your business." Sakura shot back as she looked at the ground.
Before another arguement could start Tsunade started talking again. "There will be a couple of rules. Rule number one is that you both will eat together in the apartment during breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Rule number two you can't leave the apartment at night and you must be in the apartment by 8 pm. Until further notice you two our suspended from missions of any rank."
The two both gapped at the older woman not knowing what to say. These rules practically forced them to be together the entire freaking time.
Sakura was the first one to find her voice. "Wait how can I afford to pay rent and buy food if I'm suspended from missions? I'll be living on the streets by next month."
Tsunade raised her hand to calm her apprentice down. "Sakura I'm fully aware of that and don't worry I have everything covered."
The pink haired medic looked questionally at her sensei. "Okay who's wallet did you take this time?"
"What are you talking about Sakura I'm the Hokage I would never steal from my people." Tsunade tried to explain, but the glare she got from Sakura made her throw her hands up in the air and exclaim. "Okay okay I stole it Jiraiya."
The two Jounin sighed in sadness as their students looked at them. "Actually we both argreed to pay for your food, rent, and all your bills. We're only doing this so that you two can stop fighting." Asuma explained to the two girls.
Kakashi looked at Tsunade. "Though Tsunade was supposed to chip in as well not Jiraiya."
Nervously laughing the slug sannin tried to explain herself. "Well you see I was out of money and Jiraiya was peeking in on me again so I stole all his money before kicking his ass."
Ino looked at Tsunade in shock while Sakura just sighed and smacked her forehead. Muttering something along the lines of "Better him than me" and "Serves him right for peeking".
"Okay what's the second task?" Ino asked wanting to get this over with. I mean what's more worse than having to live with forehead girl?
Tsunade quickly snapped back into Hokage mode as she looked back at the girls. "In order to pay for all the damages that you caused and make the people happier were going to throw a musical in two months."
"What's the musical?" Sakura asked as she leaned forward in her seat.
"It's a musical that was made in the west. It's called Wicked." Kakashi told them.
"Oh so you want us to form the play, pick cast members, and what not." Ino assumed as she waved her arm this way and that.
"Actually Kakashi, Kurenai, Iruka, and I are already doing those parts." Asuma explained not knowing quite well how to break this to them.
"Well then what do you want us too do?" asked Sakura not catching on in the least.
"You see this play has two lead roles that require two women." Tsunade tried to tell them the best way that she could.
Suddenly like someone set off an exploding tag Ino and Sakura finally understood what their true intentions were.
"No way in hell!" Ino shouted at them as she stood up from her chair knocking it over in the process. Sakura couldn't talk she was too shocked to even form words.
"Ino, Sakura these roles are perfect for you two." Asuma tried to say, but was interuppted by Ino.
"We have no acting experience, or singing experience. How can we possibly be casted as the main roles? How can we possibly be ready in 2 months? We don't even know the play or the songs. We'll make total fools of ourselves." Ino really couldn't take the news very well and she looked well on her way to a mental breakdown.
"Well I suggest you two learn. Now there have been changes to the play and I will explain them as soon as Ino here calms down." Tsunade told them with that sly smile on her face.
Once Ino was calmed down and sitting Tsunade began explaining. "First I will give you your parts." At that sentence Kakashi and Asuma got up with papers in their hands. Kakashi handed his stack of papers to Sakura who was still in shock. Asuma handed his pile of papers to Ino who looked like she could have a heart attack.
Ino looked at her role and felt a sigh of relief. "Ha I got Glinda. At least I don't have to look like a total fool. Hey forehead what did you get?" Ino looked over at what role the girl was then the picture. She started laughing at her. "That's funny you got Elphada. Looks like your the one thats going to dress like a fool."
Sakura's cheeks started to turn red at being laughed at, but Tsunade quickly shut Ino up. "Okay the most drastic change is that Sakura doesn't have to wear the green makeup." At that Sakura beamed, while Ino just huffed in disappointment. "Another change is your going to use your names instead of the characters names."
"Why is that sensei?" Sakura asked alway's the most curious one.
"Read the play and then you'll know why." Was her only reply as she smiled at her student. "Now that I've explained what your punishment is you can leave. Rehersals are going to start 2 days from today at 9 in the morning. The place is the ninja academy."
"Wait why do we have to wait 2 days for rehersals?" Ino asked in a confused tone as she was about to leave the room with Sakura.
"Because the other parts haven't been casted yet." She answered as she watched the girls sigh in annoyance before leaving the room.
"Well lets just hope this works." Asuma said as he took a puff from his cigarette.
"It can go two ways. One they either kill each other or two they finally become friends again." Kakashi pointed out as he read his dirty book.
"Let's just hope that it's the second one because I can't take anymore fighting." Tsunade replied as she brought out a bottle of sake and poured herself a drink.
The two men left the room leaving the Hokage to drink alone. That was the plan before Shizune barged in the room and saw that she was slacking off again.
"TSUNADE PUT THAT BOTTLE AWAY AND GET TO WORK!!" The woman screamed taking away the sake bottle.
That entire day Tsunade did paperwork, but that didn't stop her from trying to slack off.
Notice the word TRY.
