(A/N I would like to thank everyone for the huge response to my last chapter it meant a lot. For those who can't stand the play in this story don't worry because in a couple of chapters I'll be done with it, but the story will continue up to at least 20 chapters. I've decided that what I have in mind for the story can't possibly all happen in two months. About my spelling and grammar errors I'm really sorry but I don't have spellcheck or a beta reader. Even if I wanted a beta reader I have no idea where to find one or what to do once I find one. Really sorry about that. Well anyway please read and review because I love your responses. Now here's chapter 9!! One more and I hit double digits!)

Last Time:

Once she was sure they left Tsunade turned to a dark corner in the room. "So did you get a tape?" She asked the person in the corner.

The person stepped out of the room to reveal none other than Kakashi holding a video. "Yup, I got everything that happened tonight on tape. Though I missed most of it because I had to do something."

"Did anyone notice you or the video recorder?"

"They have no idea that everything they did was recorded tonight."

Tsunade smirked and clapped her hands together. "Great lets watch this and see what happened tonight. No way in hell I'm going to be drinking tonight. I want to remember every little detail. This is going to be great blackmail."

Kakashi nodded popping the tape into the VCR that just appeared out of nowhere. He pulled out a bag of popcorn and was somehow eating it without taking off his mask. "I can't wait. I hope there's 'details' in here." He said giggling like a little school girl.

Tsunade sighed at the copy nin before turning on the tv not knowing that they won't be able to look at Ino and Sakura again without smiling in happiness no matter what foal mood their in.

Regular talking and in present

Thoughts, lyrics, and flashbacks

'Inner Sakura' (Bet you thought I would leave her out huh. Well guess again.)

Chapter 9: Popular

It was quiet in the apartment. Way too quiet for Sakura's liking. Sure she loves peace and quiet as much as anyone, but lying backside on her bed, staring at the ceiling, the digital clock telling her that it's 3 in the morning, was starting to become unbearable.

Normally she loves it when she's wide awake late at night because then she can think without any interruptions. Now thats what she's been avoiding all day after that stupid truth or dare party.

Sakura sighed to herself before slowly lifting her arm. For what seemed like an eternity her fingers gently touched her lips. She couldn't describe the fuzzy feeling in her stomach whenever she thought about that kiss that Ino and her shared. It wasn't anything she's ever experienced in her whole life.

'Ino...' Sakura thought to herself before she turned to her right side to stare out her window. 'I just don't get it anymore. It's like nothings changed at all between us when at the same time it has. It's sooo confusing.'

She ran a frustrated hand through her pink locks as she recalled what happened once they got back from the Hokage Tower. A slight grin adorning her features.

-------------------

"Sakura can you believe the look on Naruto's face when Tsunade starting hitting on him! It was priceless!" Ino exclaimed laughing at the memory. They were walking step by step towards their apartment.

Sakura chuckled along with her blond companion. "Of course I believe that and I also believe that he practically pissed his pants as he ran out of the building acting like Orochimaru wanted to have his body." That only made Ino laugh harder, holding her sides.

Suddenly lighting lit up the night sky illuminating the two girls. Then a loud roll of thunder before rain starting to pour down on the village and the two girls walking in the streets.

"Son of a bitch! Why do I keep getting wet!" Ino screamed throwing her arms up in the air.

"Ino cool it. Seriously your acting like a little kid." Sakura commented rolling her eyes at her friends behavior.

Both stopped walking as the street lights came on. Ino was giving Sakura a cold glare while Sakura just playfully smiled at her.

"Sakura do you have any idea what rain does to my hair!" Ino yelled trying to prove her point, the cold rain making her shiver slightly.

Folding her arms around her chest and cupping her chin with her left hand Sakura pretended to think over what Ino said. "Actually Ino I think your right..." Sakura paused as she saw Ino grin in triumph. "Yeah the rain makes you look like a drowned rat." She finished waiting for Ino's reaction.

At first all she had was a blank expression before her pink haired friend words sunk in then her eyes flared in absolute fury. "YOUR GOING TO PAY FOR SAYING THAT!!!" She screamed at the top of her lungs probably waking up the whole block.

That was Sakura's cue to run for her life. So with a peace sign towards her friend she jumped onto the closest rooftop and ran towards the apartment. Making sure to apply chakra to her feet just in case she slipped.

"YOUR NOT GETTING AWAY FROM ME THAT EASILY!!" Sakura winced at her friend's fury, but then snickered slightly as she saw Ino try to chase after her. It was true she did kinda look like a drowned rat from up here. After a couple of minutes Ino was gone from Sakura's sight.

She saw their apartment building up ahead and with a little chakra boost to her feet she got there in a couple of seconds flat.

She decided that she was safe enough to slow her pace to a slow jog. Once she was up all those damn stairs she reached their apartment. Since she hardly locks her door she just swung it open not even paying attention to where she was going.

"Told you that you couldn't get awa...Omph." Sakura crashed right into Ino. Turns out the soaking wet blonde actually beat Sakura on the race to the apartment.

Their bodies fell to the floor in a heap, they started to roll around on the ground before they stopped in a very intimate position. The pink haired medic nin was lying on her back while the blond haired mind user was over top her, but there was something else to this position.

Sakura felt her cheeks burn as she gazed up into Ino's sky blue eyes. She found that she couldn't take a breath due to Ino's lips once again placed firmly pressed against hers. Except this time it was an accident. Sakura could tell by how wide Ino's eyes were.

You idoit push her off of you! We're not like that!' Inner Sakura screamed inside Sakura's head. It's been awhile since she's heard from her even though she lives inside her head.

With all her power she tried to pry Ino off her, but no matter how hard she tried to move her body the more intoxicated she became of Ino. She found that she couldn't move an inch either due to complete shock or extreme pleasure. At the moment she couldn't decide which.

'What is this feeling inside of me? Why can't I move an inch and why do I not want to? This is Ino here! My best friend that I consider like an older sister! Whats' wrong with me?' Sakura thought to herself hoping to not receive an answer to her questions.

You know this doesn't feel too bad. In fact I kinda like this.' Inner Sakura decided to butt in not helping matters what so ever.

'Arg. After all this time when I needed you, you pick this time of all times. What the hell you were screaming at me earlier to push her off of me.' Sakura countered. Sure she was talking to herself, but after all this time with Inner Sakura inside her she's grown used to her.

Well I changed my mind. Ino's lips are soooo soft and delicate it makes me want to just...

'SHUT UP!! God have you been reading those books that Kakashi reads.'

If I did then that means that you have too. PERVERT!!!

'Okay then what you were about to tell me was completely kid appropriate.'

You know that if you call me a pervert then you call yourself a pervert too.

'Why do you constantly point that out? We are two completely differnet people stuck inside one mind.'

Sorry my friend but you are horribly mistaken. You see since I'm called Inner Sakura that means I'm the part of yourself that you sometimes like to hide.

'Wait what are you talking about? You just come and go as you please.' Now Sakura was really confused and thanks to Ino's lips being on hers she couldn't think straight. Also she couldn't forget how close their bodies were, producing heat through their freezing cold clothes.

Inner Sakura took a deep dramatic breath before going into full lecture mode. 'You see I'm the real you so to speak. I'm your inner emotions, what you truely feel about something. I'm also here to give you some more self confidence cause girl you sure do need some now and again. Like right now. Your completely freaking out over the fact that at this moment your best friend is kissing you and you really like it.

'Hello wouldn't you freak out too if your best friend started kissing you. Don't forget the fact that she's a girl.' Sakura countered understanding what Inner Sakrua was coming from with her explaination.

Well since I'm you that would be a yes.

'Also I'm not liking this kiss what so ever.'

If you don't like it then why didn't you push her off of you yet?' questioned Inner Sakura trying to hold back a sly grin.

At this point in time Sakura decided to completely ignore her Inner. She was getting a headache from all this arguing and she really needed to get some oxygen.

Apparently Ino caught on because she slowly pushed herself off of Sakura but remained hovering over her. Blonde locks mergeing with pink tresses. Sky blue locked in a staring contest with jade. Medium breasts rubbing against large breasts.

Sakura found that once their lips broke contact they immediently started to go cold. She was also missing Ino's body up against hers. She shivered slightly as a cold wind hit her.

Ino just stared at her friend looking like she couldn't believe what just happened. Soon her facial features started to turn from complete shock and amazement to anger and fury. To vent some anger she flicked Sakura really hard in the forehead.

"Ow! What the hell was that for!" Sakura yelled pushing Ino off of her and sitting up straight. No one and she means no one flicks her in the forehead!

"For not looking where the hell you were going! God you can be such a fucking clutz!" Ino exclaimed pointing her finger at her friend.

"Well then why don't you watch where your lips are going then!" Sakura countered. Sure it was a sad comeback, but it still pissed Ino off all the same.

"Well if you are so offended that I accidently kissed you then why did I have to break the kiss." Ino shot back her eyes reflecting hidden pain and anger. Though Sakura was obilvious to it all.

"I was shocked that's all. It's not everyday that I get kissed by my best friend." Luckily Inner Sakura decided to remain silent because Sakura wouldn't know what to do if she started blushing at her inners 'suggestions'.

"Well then what about today when everyone was over? You seemed pretty comfortable as you were kissing me back. Did I just imagine hearing you moan out my name?" Ino's voice slightly cracked with emotion.

The pink haired girl avoided eye contact as she tried to explain herself. "That was different it was a dare. We had to do it."

"How is it so different from now?"

Sakura sighed in defeat not wanting to continue this stupid arguement. To get rid of some of her frustration she slowly rubbed her temples. "Look lets drop it okay. That kiss that we shared just now was an accident. Just an accident. Lets just forget it and get on with our lives." She finished not noticing the pain in her friends eyes.

Something wet and cold slide down the corner of her left mouth. Almost as a reaction Sakura wiped her chin noticing that there was a blood stain on the back of her hand. She guessed that her lips were bruised and her bottom lip was bleeding. She was just about to heal it herself when Ino caught her attention.

"Here let me heal that for you." Ino said focusing her chakra into two fingers then placing them gently over Sakura's lips.

A warm feeling spread throughout her entire being. Sakura found this warmth somewhat comforting and reassuring. She closed her eyes so that she can fully take in this pleasure, making sure to remember this feeling because she was a hundred percent sure that it would never happen again.

Face it Sakura you have a crush on your friend.' Inner Sakura once again came in when she was clearly not needed.

'I don't have a crush on Ino. It's just Ino.' Sakura told her friend almost like she rehearsed that line in a play over and over.

Yeah sure, it's just Ino. Ino, that's been their for you for anything even when you two were at each others throats. Ino, who is the person that you feel the most comfortable with above anyone else. Ino, who made you who you are today and despite you trying to push her away she's still here and taking care of you. Sakura, your in total denial.' Inner Sakura told her hitting her in her weak spot.

The words sunk in like a knife wound to the heart and before Sakura knew it she was sliently crying.

"Sakura what's wrong?" Ino asked clearly alarmed by her friends sudden change in mood. She was done healing her lips so she quickly pulled her hand away from her lips thinking that that was the problem.

Instantly she was brought out of her conversation with Inner Sakura and quickly opened her eyes. She winced slightly at the pure concern in Ino's eyes. It was all too much to deal with right now. "Ummm yeah I'm fine it's just my lips really hurt, but I'm fine now. Thanks Ino your a great medic."

If Ino bought her lie she didn't show it, but her eyes did soften before she moved her right arm again. Using her right thumb she gently wiped the tears from Sakura's cheeks.

Her's eyes widened slightly in shock making Ino giggle lightly at her behavior. "You know Sakura even if you feel all alone in the world and you feel that everyone that you love no longer cares. I hope that you'll alway's remember..." She paused as she smiled at her looking her straight in the eyes.

Sakura took a deep gulp of breath wondering what Ino was going to tell her. Ino took Sakura's hands in hers giving it a slight squeeze.

"That I'll alway's be there for you and I'll never stop caring." She finished her voice filled with love and sincerity.

"Ino..." Sakura whispered looking at her friend in a new light. She didn't know how to answer that. It was just so shocking that she was left speechless. Her eyes watered slightly and she cursed herself for being too damn emotional.

Suddenly an event from their childhood came to Sakura's memory. She smiled as she remembered Ino's kind words to her that day. "So do you think I'm still a bud?"

The question caught Ino off guard, but after recovering she smiled back. "Hmm...Let's save that answer for another day. We're both tired so lets go to bed after we dry off. Don't want you getting sick on me." Ino helped her friend up before walking into her room shutting the door behind her.

"I'll be waiting for your answer then." Sakura whispered the words coming out soft and gentle.

---------------

The sun started to shine on Sakura's room making the girl groan. "Damn I didn't get any sleep last night. I really needed some too." She muttered to herself as she got out of bed.

She grabbed some clothes and walked into the bathroom. Quickly she undressed and jumped into the steaming hot shower. Looking down at her body she sighed at the bruises and scars that were thanks to intense training and missions.

Sakura blushed lightly as she glaced at her chest. Man she sure was Tsunade's apprentice for a reason. "Geez who would have thought that in 3 years your body can change so much." The only reason that most males didn't constantly stare at her chest was because she wore training bras and tried to hide her boobs, but now it's getting to the point where those don't even work anymore.

Of course Tsunade alway's complained about why she never showed them off. "Your a beautiful girl with amazing asset's, learn to stop being so self conscious and show your stuff. That's the only way that you can get a decent man." She would tell her everytime the subject of Sakura being single was brought up.

'Wonder what it would feel like if Ino took a shower with us?' Inner Sakura suddenly asked out of the blue.

Sakura was so caught off guard by that sentence that she almost slipped and fell. Her face was hot and it wasn't the showers fault. Regaining her footing Sakura quickly yelled at her Inner. 'WHAT KIND OF QUESTION IS THAT!!!'

Inner Sakura just waved her hand at Sakura or if she can she would. 'What you were thinking the same thing. About how you want to feel Ino's breasts under your hands. How you want to stroke...'

Now Sakura was completely flustered. 'SHUT UP I WAS NOT THINKING THAT!!!!'

'Yes you were because if I'm thinking like that then that means that your thinking like that.' She smugly shot back crossing her arms over her chest.

'Just leave me alone right now I'm not in the mood.' Sakura told her Inner grinding her teeth together so that she wouldn't blow her top. What would Ino think of her if she started yelling at herself?

'Fine I'll leave for now, but I'll be back to finsh our little 'discussion'.' Inner Sakura waved at her before she disappeared to a far away corner of Sakura's mind.

Her shower was already ruined so Sakura decided to just get out and get ready. Today they had yet another play practice, but thank god that the other's were getting better so to speak. They weren't broadway material, but at least they didn't flat out suck like before.

After about 15 to 20 minutes of getting ready Sakura stepped out of the bathroom hair completely dried and fully clothed ready to start a new day.

Glancing at the clock she noticed that it was 10 in the morning. Practice was at noon today because for some reason Tsunade thought that she wouldn't be drinking sake the night before. Sakura snorted at her masters words. There was no way in hell that she would not drink at all. Hokage life was extremely stressful plus Tsunade also loved sake with a passion. Right now Sakura guessed that she was suffering from a terrible hangover which also means that she's in a bad mood cause she was stupid enough to make practice this early.

Sakura shivered knowing full well what her master was capable of. Never and she meant never piss Tsunade off when she's hungover. It results in a chakra enhanced fist right to the face and through the next 5 buildings. Naruto and Jiraiya have suffered from Tsunade's temper on multiple occasions.

"SAKU-CHAN!!!" Ino screamed as she ran at Sakura and wrapped her arms around her.

The pink haired chuunin suppressed a blush as she pushed Ino off of her. She looked her friend up and down. Ino was fully clothed and ready for anything with a huge smile on her face. Being friends with Ino for many years made her know for a fact that Ino was never a morning person unless...Sakura's eyes widened in realization as she came to a conclusion.

"Fuck are you kidding me!" She exclaimed at her blonde friend who continued to smile brightly at her.

"What all I did was say good morning Saku-chan." Ino said shrugging her shoulders.

She blushed at the nickname, but tried really hard to suppress it. "You know what I'm talking about Ino. Your on your fucking period aren't you?" When Ino didn't repley Sakura groaned and smacked her forehead. Both her and Hinata on their periods. God have mercy on us all.

"I'm not that bad when I'm on my period." Ino tried to convince Sakura, but all she got in reply was a snort. "You don't have to be that mean Saku-chan." She said crying anime tears making Sakura sweatdrop.

"What's with the nickname? Seriously it's getting on my nerves."

"I think it's kind of cute and it fits you."

Sakura blushed ten shades of red at being called 'cute'. Ino just smiled at her friend. "Well we have 2 hours till practice lets have some breakfast." She tried to avoid Ino's stare cause it was starting to unnerve her.

"Actually we only have 30 minutes left." Ino said with an uneasy chuckle watching Sakura's expression drop.

"WHAT!!! How could this have happened?! The clock said it was 10!" She screamed making Ino flinch slightly at her friends tone of voice.

"Hehehehehe...well you see it's a long story really. You see there was this mouse and..." Sakura's hand stopped her from continuing any further.

"Whatever I don't care let's just go before Tsunade decides to make us her new punching bags." So they ran all the way to the academy making it just in time.

What greeted the two girls was the whole gang crowding around something. Then they heard Naruto laughing his ass off then a smack as he fell to the floor in glee. The girls looked at Naruto who was rolling around laughing his head off.

Hinata went to her boyfriends side trying to scowl at him, but Sakura could tell she was trying really hard not to bust out laughing. Kiba, Shino, Chouji, Shikamaru, and Temari covered their mouths to try to hide their glee, while Tenten and Lee were openly smirking at something.

Sakura and Ino inched their way to the group wondering what the commotion was all about. When they reached the stage both girls had to hold back their laughter that was forceing it's way up their throats.

Looks like Neji did his dare after all because all he was wearing was that hidious green suit that Lee alway's wears. It clinged to his body like a second skin showing off the Hyuuga's firm ass and abs. Lee was actually wearing Neji's clothes which looked to infuriate the boy even more. He glared at Ino and Sakura before saying through clenched teeth. "Don't..Say..A..Word."

Tenten decided to step in and help her friends. "Neji you don't have to be that mean. You have to learn to cool it." That's when she slapped his ass really hard with her right hand. Neji instantly grabbed his ass and arched his back, his face holding one of shock and embarrassment.

That's when Sakura couldn't hold it in anymore. She bust out laughing and soon joined her teammate on the ground laughing her ass off. Ino decided to act like the others and try to hide her laughter, but it really wasn't working because every now and then you could hear a giggle.

Suddenly a very loud and commanding voice boomed over all the laughter. "OKAY ENOUGH FOOLING AROUND AND GET BACK TO WORK!!!"

Quickly everyone shut up even Naruto. All turned their heads to see a very pissed off Tsunade. Like a habit Naruto and Sakura both gulped and prayed to god that she doesn't release her wrath on either of them.

Tsunade quickly took a seat in the front row Asuma, Kurenai and Kakashi following her as well. "Okay Ino, Sakura your up. Now get ready to sing Popular." Kakashi said alway's straight to the point.

Both girls took a deep breath as the music started coming on. Ino was the one who was supposed to start first. She walked over to Sakura and grabbed her hand. "Sakura - now that we're friends, I've decided to
make you my new project."

"You really don't have to do that." Sakura replied with a sigh. Trying to sound that she didn't care if Ino wanted to do this or not.

Ino placed a hand over her heart before looking at Sakura again her face masked with an innocent expression. "I know. That's what makes me so nice!" Then she took a deep breath and sang.

Whenever I see someone
Less fortunate than I

Ino shrugged her shoulders at the next verse.

And let's face it - who isn't
Less fortunate than I?

Then she placed a hand over her heart again and pretended to be hurt.

My tender heart
Tends to start to bleed
And when someone needs a makeover
I simply have to take over

That's when she faced Sakura again and moved her hands forward and backward with a I'm better than you look.

I know I know exactly what they need
And even in your case
Tho' it's the toughest case I've yet to face

That's when she gave Sakura the thumbs up as she sang.

Don't worry - I'm determined to succeed
Follow my lead
And yes, indeed
You will be:

The music paused for a second as Ino took in a dramtic breath to add effect.

Popular!
You're gonna be popular!
I'll teach you the proper ploys

Neji appeared on the stage as Ino rubbed against his chest.

When you talk to boys
Little ways to flirt and flounce

Ino then slapped Neji's ass from behind making him jump and run off the stage his face beat red. If you listened closely enough you could hear Naruto laughing at the poor Hyuuga.

I'll show you what shoes to wear
How to fix your hair
Everything that really counts

Then the music started to really play as Ino got into the song more and more. She faced the 'crowd' and sang in a beautiful voice.

To be popular
I'll help you be popular!
You'll hang with the right cohorts
You'll be good at sports
Know the slang you've got to know
So let's start
'Cause you've got an awfully long way to go:

Ino sang to Sakura causing her to pretend to be insulted by Ino's words. The blonde got ready for the next part by walking up to Sakura and pointing her finger at her.

Don't be offended by my frank analysis
Think of it as personality dialysis
Now that I've chosen to be come a pal, a
Sister and adviser
There's nobody wiser
Not when it comes to popular -

That's when the music became upbeat again. Ino faced the audience as she sang the chorus in a loud and light tone. Sounding like a regular school girl.

I know about popular
And with an assist from me
To be who you'll bee
Instead of dreary who-you-were: are:

Once Ino finished that sentence Sakura glared at her acting like she really meant it.

There's nothing that can stop you
From becoming popu-
Ler: lar:

Ino started to dance around in circles as she sang la la over and over again.

La la la la
We're gonna make
You popular

Tenten handed Ino a ribbon, the blonde didn't even pay attention to what the ribbon looked like. She went behind Sakura and took off her hatae watching as her bangs fall to the front of her face. She started to do Sakura's hair figuring out how to put the ribbon into her hair.

When I see depressing creatures
With unprepossessing features
I remind them on their own behalf
To think of
Celebrated heads of state or
Specially great communicators
Did they have brains or knowledge?
Don't make me laugh!

Finished with her work Ino gently smacked Sakura on the shoulder as she giggled lightly before singing.

They were popular! Please -
It's all about popular!
It's not about aptitude
It's the way you're viewed
So it's very shrewd to be
Very very popular
Like me!

Ino then turned Sakura around so that they were face to face. The young blonde held a look of awe as she took in Sakura's hair syle. Suddenly she actually looked at the ribbon now tied in Sakura's hair. She gasped lightly realizing that it was the ribbon that she gave to Sakura when they first met, the ribbon that started their friendship and their rivalry. Last time she checked the ribbon was in her possession so how could someone get it?

Soon she got back into role when Sakura gave her a look to continue. She inhaled a small breath as she recited. "Why, Miss Sakura, look at you. You're beautiful." If really wasn't acting on Ino's part because at that moment the play really didn't matter to her. She did mean those words though.

Sakura faked a blush of embarrassment or was that really faking? Anyway she quickly said in a hurried voice." I...I have to go." Then she ran off to the side of the stage.

"You're welcome!" Ino yelled back her voice holding hurt and pain. Then she turned back to the audience as she sang in a slow tune.

And though you protest
Your disinterest
I know clandestinely

Then the music turned fast again as Ino grinned broadly.

You're gonna grin and bear it
Your new found popularity
La la la la
You'll be popular -
Just not as quite as popular
As me!

The song came to a close as everyone came on the stage ready for the directors to judge on their performance.

"Sakura." Tsunade called making the girl pale and wonder what she did this time.

Sakura quickly stood straight and a serious looked crossed her face. "Hai."

Ino giggled lightly at Sakura making the said girl blush like a ripe tomatoe. Man these next 5 days are so going to suck. Apparently Shikamaru and Chouji figured it out too because they both groaned and smacked their foreheads.

"Come here for a second I need to talk to you in private." Tsunade said in a more nicer tone which made Sakura relax a little bit.

Jumping off the stage and following Tsunade outside Sakura waited for whatever her sensei had to say.

The blonde haired beauty looked at her pupil trying to find the words to say what she wanted to tell her. "Look Sakura I know about your truth or dare party with the others."

"W...wh...what..." Sakura said not thinking that anyone else would know about last night besides the others.

'SHANNARO!!!!! INVASION OF PRIVACY!!! WHO THE HELL DOES SHE THINK SHE IS!!!!' Inner Sakura came back with a vengence at this terrible turn of events. A stuffed Tsunade doll appeared beside Inner Sakura and she took extreme preasure in beating the shit out of it.

Tsunade sighed placing a hand on the young girls shoulder. "Look if I knew that this party would turn out like that I would never had let Kakashi spy on you." She thought that she made it better when in fact she made it worse.

"So if Kakashi spied on us then how did you find out?" Sakura asked her face now completely white. She tried to ignore Inner Sakura ranting and yelling at the now completely destroyed stuffed Tsunade doll.

"Well you see he kind of taped it. I saw it last night and so did all the other sensei's."

"How could you do this to me! God now everyone is going to think I'm either a lesbian or I'm a complete whore. Who am I kinding it's probably both with my shitty luck." Sakura exclaimed pissed off beyond belief.

"Sakura listen to me nobody thinks that. They think your a smart and beautiful girl who was dared to do something by a complete pervert." Tsunade tried to reason with her hysterical apprentice.

"Yeah but I picked Ino. Not Naruto, Lee, Shikamaru, or any of the other guys. I picked a girl over a guy." Sakura explained nearing tears at her ruined reputation.

"So what you picked the person that you trusted most in the world. It was Ino and not anyone else. I know that you would have chosen Naruto, but he's currently dating one of your friends. You did pick the right person." Tsunade gently squeezed Sakura's shoulder giving her comfort like a mother would to her daughter.

Sakura quickly hugged Tsunade with her sensei hugging her back. The scene would actually look like a special moment between a mother and her daughter.

"So why did you spy on us in the first place?"

"We overheared your conversation, got curious and decided to spy on you two."

"You know that your going to get it later as well as Kakashi." Sakura told her sensei still keeping a hold of her.

Tsunade smirked before cooly replying. "How about I do this. You spare me and I make sure no one ever spies on you and Ino again."

"You drive a hard bargin, but okay. Though I'm still getting Kakashi."

"As expected of my apprentice." Tsunade said lightly ruffling Sakura's pink hair. "One less pervert out there the better for all of us women."

They let go of each other and calmly walked back inside the building to see a werid sight. Everyone looked to be cowering under Hinata's form. The said girl looked very scary with a dark arua surounding her.

"HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE FOR SOMEONE TO GET SOME DAMN CHOCOLATE!!! I TOLD SHINO TO GET ME SOME A MINUTE AGO!!!! SHINO WHERE THE HELL'S MY CHOCOLATE!!!!" Hinata screeched at the top of her lungs making all the guys flinch at her tone.

"What's going on Sakura? This isn't what I think it is." Tsunade whispered into the young girls ear.

"Sorry to say but if it's Hinata being on her period, then your right. Ino started today too." Sakura answered in a sad tone.

Tsunade rubbed her temples in frustration. "God have mercy on us."

They proceeded to the stage where the females who weren't on their periods were sitting in the seats while all the men were on the stage cowering in fear over the girls who were on their periods.

"NOW WHERE'S MY CHOCOLATE!!!!" Hinata screamed making the girls sweat drop at her behavior.

Naruto seemed to notice Sakura was back because he instantly ran behind her and clutched her sides. "Sakura please save me. I've already been smacked around twice by both of them."

Sakura sighed as she looked over at Tenten. Apparently Neji and Asuma had the same idea as Naruto because they quickly hid behind their girlfriends. "So should we spare them?" She asked the weapons mistress.

"I say we spare ourselves because I'm getting one hell of a migrane." Tenten replied standing up and walking over to Sakura's side. Tsunade gave Sakura a gentle pat on the back and took a seat by Kurenai who was lecturing Asuma to stop being scared of teenage girls.

"Shesh your not in a good mood today. Are you sure your not starting?" Sakura questioned earning a glare from the bun haired girl.

"You'd be in a bad mood too if you had to hear her sceeching for the past 5 minutes. I would have had it taken care of already, but you have our secret weapon."

"Wait what secret weapon? You guys have a secret weapon?" Naruto asked his eyes shining with hope. Neji tried to act like he didn't care, but he kept looking at the girls wondering what they were planning.

"Of course we do, we're not crazy! Two girls on their rag and we're not perpared is completely suicidal." Tenten exclaimed making her boyfriend sigh at his girlfriends choice of words.

"Tenten you didn't have to say it like that!" Sakura yelled a slight blush on her cheeks.

"Sorry I'm just really mad right now. Can we get this over with already." Tenten said rubbing her forehead to try and remove her headache.

Sakura sighed and reached into her back pocket. Pulling out a small brown paper bag she said. "Okay let's go. Naruto, Neji do you want to stay or come with us?"

"We've been on missions worse than this and I never let you down yet! I'm in Sakura!" Naruto exclaimed making everyone smile at the blonde haired dufuss.

"Since the dope's going I'll go to. Besides I can't let my girlfriend go out there all alone with no one to protect her." Neji said acting like the cool guy in the group.

Naruto leaned over to the girls to whisper loud enough for Neji to hear too. "So say's the guy in the green condom." Both girls laughed at the remark while Neji oh so kindly hit Naruto over the head.

"You asshole!!!" Naruto screamed ready to punch him in the face.

Before things got out of hand Sakura got in the way. "This isn't a time to be fighting each other. We have to calm these girls down or were all doomed." Judging by the seriousness in Sakura's voice she wasn't joking at all. Both boys nodded their heads in agreement.

"Wait where's Temari we could really need her help right now." Tenten said just now realizing that the sand shinobi wasn't with them.

"I was wondering when you would notice I wasn't here." A voice replied in a calm tone. Then in a gust of wind Temari appeared with her fan in hand.

"Hey your not going to attack them with that are you?" Naruto questioned slightly worried.

Temari just laughed at the blonde before answering his question. "Of course not. This is just a shield for when they start throwing things at us namely the guys."

"So you came perpared I see." Sakura said with a grin on her face. She was just glad that Temari could help them out because she knew that Naruto and Neji weren't going to do much.

"After what happened last time there's no way in hell I'm doing this without my fan." Temari hotly said making the guys wonder what exactly happened the last time.

"So are we all ready?" Sakura asked when everyone nodded their heads in agreement, they got up on stage.

Ino had Shikamaru in a head lock while Hinata punched Lee in the face for telling her to calm down. The other guys were stuck in place trembling with fear.

"You know on second thought I really can't hit Ino or Hinata since they're both girls and are my friends." Naruto said hiding behind Sakura and grabbing her sides again.

"Coward." Sakura muttered putting her hand in the brown paper bag. Tenten and Temari already were heading towards the girls while Neji grabbed Lee and took him off the stage to safety.

To Team 7's horror Hinata saw how close they were and she was furious. She glared at Sakura her killing intent going to it's all time high. "GET YOUR HANDS OFF MY BOYFRIEND YOU WHORE!!!" She screamed at the top of her lungs.

"HEY SAKURA'S NOT A WHORE YOU FUCKING BITCH!!!" Ino yelled letting go of Shikamaru and walking over to Hinata slapping her across the face.

Temari quickly grabbed her boyfriend and his best friend and took them off the stage. Tenten grabbed Kiba and Shino by the collar of their jackets and threw them off the stage. Then she kicked Kakashi in the ass and sent him flying into Kiba and Shino.

"Okay that's all of them lets get this thing over with!" Tenten said as Temari came back on the stage.

Hinata and Ino were fist fighting, but somehow the Hyuuga caught Ino off guard and tripped her. As the young blonde fell to the floor the enraged girl ran at Sakura and Naruto.

"Dammit Naruto you have to get out of here." Sakura told her friend as Hinata was getting closer to them.

"No I'm not leaving you Sakura. We're teammates and I refuse to let you get hurt." Naruto said going into over protective brother mode.

"Sorry Naruto, but this is an order not a request." Sakura replied before punching Naruto in the stomach sending him flying off the stage and into Kakashi. The group of guys on the ground groaned in pain, but were thankful that they weren't in firing range anymore.

"SAKURA WATCH OUT!!" Ino screamed to Sakura who had her back turned to Hinata. Quickly she turned around, but was too late to avoid the heiress' gentle fist to the chest. Sakura gasped in pain as she found it hard to breathe.

"HOLY SHIT SHE ACTUALLY MEANS IT!!!" Tenten exclaimed shocked that Hinata actually attacked Sakura like that.

"Damn we have to stop this now or we're done for." Temari said while on top of her fan.

"SAKURA!!!!" Ino yelled at the top of her lungs. Quickly she got to her feet and started to run toward the two fighting girls.

"Ino stay out of things that doesn't hold your concern." Hinata said ready to attack Ino. Ino went over to Sakura and stood in front of her, going into a fighting stance.

Hinata ran at the blonde and threw a punch at her. Like a dancer Ino dodged the blow and manged to land a punch. The Hyuuga took a step back to recover her posture before running at her again her killing intent reaching it's peak.

The fight went on for a couple of minutes with just them blocking each others blows before Hinata finally landed a kick on Ino's side. Ino took a step back as the air was knocked out of her.

The blue haired girl decided to use this chance to take Ino out of the fight. She concentrated most of her chakra into her right hand and ran at the blonde. Just as Hinata was about to use her gentle fist on the young blonde Sakura got in the way and pushed Ino out of the way taking the blow for her.

This time it directly hit her in the stomach causing her knees to buckle. Sakura grabbed her stomach and started to cough.

"SAKURA!!!!!" Ino screamed tears coming to her eyes. She tried to reach her friend but Sakura just weakly raised her hand to stop her from going any further.

Hinata smirked at the young girl as she towered over her. "Hehehe...not so tough now are we. Your the same as him..." She told her before she kicked Sakura in the stomach sending her into the wall. Her back crashed painfully against the concrete as the medic felt one of her ribs snap.

Sakura wasn't looking at Hinata, but at the ground trying to suppress her severe coughing. Tightly she clutched her sides as she felt blood side down the corner of her mouth. With her knowledge over medical jutsu she knew that those two direct hits caused major damage to her ribs and organs.

Hinata took a deep breathe as she yelled out in a demanding tone filled with malice.

"The same as Sasuke!"

(A/N Okay that is the end of chapter 9. Sorry that I ended it like that, but I wanted to add a little suspense as well as not making it that long. I think I went a little overboard on this chapter because damn I wrote a lot. I did enjoy writing the Inner Sakura parts because I simply love her. She's great for humor and come on she is soooo a pervert when it comes down to it. GO INNER SAKURA!!!

If your wondering about Hinata's behavior well I truely didn't want her to flat out attack Sakura like that, but it just seemed the best way for the story to progress the way I want it to. I know she was way out of character with that scene, but look at it from her point of view: Sakura is her competition with Naruto even though in this story she has no romantic feelings for him. For the love of god the poor girl spent half her damn life chasing after him so I would overreact a little if my competition and my boyfriend were all close and stuff. Any normal teenage girl would. I just don't believe that Hinata would be okay with it because Sakura sure as hell wouldn't be okay if the roles were switched.

Also just had to write another InoSaku moment with Sakura's point of view because a wonderful reviewer of mine told me that I should write the story using more of Sakura's point of view instead of just Ino. I HOPE YOU LIKE IT!!! Hate to say, but the next couple of chapters will be in Ino's point of view because I don't want to give anything away. PLEASE READ AND REVIEW!!!! I LOVE ALL MY WONDERFUL REVIEWERS!!! SEE YA!!!!! )
