The Love Hole
Chapter Two: The Questions
by Shanghai Honey
Sakura encountered a heavy load of pressure against her forehead and heard distinctive noises coming exceptionally near. Soon enough, her hearing became remarkably clear to the point where she intended on listening to the conversation spoken before her.
"You hit her over the head with a log?" retorted the person sitting next to her. He didn't seem all that surprised either.
"IT WAS HOLLOW! How many times do I have to say it?"
Jiraiya sighed. "I just wish I was there to witness it. It would be like me saving the princess from the evil clutches of pricky hair! Then we'd have sex all day-"
Kakashi and Arashi groaned.
"You've really messed, haven't you?" Jiraiya said staring at the mystery woman's beautiful face. "She's an A+ hottie." he said drooling to a limitless amount.
"What about Tsunade? Don't you have a thing for her?" asked Kakashi.
"Nah, she's okay." he shrugged it off carelessly.
"I'll kill you." a voice from outside muttered.
Jiraiya slowly turned around with the struck of horror on his face. "Oh...," he gulped. "didn't know you were back there." he instantly had thoughts of running away.
Tsunade's face turned red with embarrassment and discomfort. "I'm okay? I'll have you know I'm A+ DOUBLE HOTTIE!" she slammed her fist into her hand.
Jiraiya stumbled upon his chair. "Heh, right, right."
Tsunade sighed helplessly. Her only intention was to check up on the mystery girl "I'm just here to make sure you haven't sexually harrassed our newest patient in her sleep." she retorted and stole a quick glance at the pink haired girl. "Not yet." she muttered.
Sakura's entire face twitched. Jiraiya would never lay a finger on her, for he knew the consequences...oh, yeah, he did. She smirked viciously in her 'sleep' and her hands suddenly began to twitch.
Sakura's eyes fluttered open. Her vision was insignificantly blurry, but she was able to spot very familiar objects. "Kakashi-sensei?" she questioned.
Kakashi raised an eyebrow. "Sensei?"
Sakura turned her head slightly and found Jiraiya sitting in a chair a little too close to her bedside. "Jiraiya...," she muttered with the slightest possible excitement.
"Bwah! She knows me too!" he grinned with insolence.
Then she faced Arashi and her eyes widened. "Naruto!" she pulled herself up.
Arashi's face went blank as he heard Jiraiya and Kakashi laugh secretly behind his back. "Apparently, she has no idea who I am." he muttered with hostile disappointment.
"I can't believe you hit me over the head with a piece of metal." she moaned, rubbing her head softly with her delicate hands. Jiraiya enjoyed every aspect of this moment, if you know what I mean.
Arashi sighed. "It was a log."
"Well, it felt like a freakin' metal!" Sakura replied in an earsplitting shout. "Naruto, I've told you over and over again-!"
"My name isn't Naruto." the blond man rouse with aggravation.
Sakura stared at him. Her vision was still a bit abnormal, but she definitely knew that spiky blond hair, stupid grin, and clear blue eyes only belonged to one person. "Whatever. What do you want me to call you then? Fox boy...," she rolled her eyes.
Everyone in the room fixed her a confused stare. They had no idea what she meant by that...
"How about foxy boy?" the blond sexy hunk of man threw her the most insolent grin.
Kakashi shook his head with shame. If Arashi and Jiraiya switched personalities for a day, there still wouldn't be a difference...
"Listen, Naruto-"
"Arashi."
"What's an Arashi?"
"My name." he growled.
"...," Arashi recieved a blank stare from her. "Your middle name?"
"No, my first name!"
"Naruto, stop playing games-!"
"ARASHI!"
"Arashi-who?"
"That's my name!"
"...er...Naruto-"
"ARASHIIIIII!" he wanted to pull his hair out. But of course, that would be ridiculous...
he just had his hair done perfectly yesterday.
Although Arashi's social experiences with woman were incredibly weak, he knew that this girl somehow differed from the rest. She was annoying, irksome, rude, loud, and when I mean loud, I mean INCREDIBLY loud.
and honestly, that turned him on. Despite the fact that its annoyance at first sight.
"I don't know why you have to yell...," she muttered. "My head still hurts from being hit by a piece of metal-"
Arashi blazed.
"Okay, everyone. First of all, IT WAS A HALLOW LOG! Second, my name is Arashi. And third, End of discussion...," he crossed his arms and gave everyone an annoyed look. "Oh, by the way, do you wanna go out for coffee sometime?"
Two big drops of tears slid through Jiraiya's eyes. "That's my boy." he sniffed.
Sakura was taken back by surprise. "N-Naruto-"
"ARASHI!" he shrieked, red in the face with exhaustion of saying his name too much.
Sakura blinked. After moments of long silence and awkward stares, she finally realized something. The person currently standing in front of her couldn't possibly be Naruto.
This guy shrieks like a man...
"Suppose you're not Naruto." she quirked an eyebrow. "Who are you?"
"You already know my name." he muttered, discouraged by the many chuckles Kakashi and Jiraiya bestowed upon him. "Said to be one of the strongest ninjas of Konoha." he smirked. "Now, who are you?"
Sakura threw him a look of astoundment. "Are you serious? Everyone in Konoha knows me." she informed him. It was obvious to everyone who was anyone that this is HARUNO SAKURA, the great apprentice of the awesome Hokage, Tsunade.
Kakashi scooted forward to catch a better sight of her. "I have never seen you before. Are you foreign?"
Sakura rubbed her eyes rigorously and suddenly, her vision became clear. She gasped in awe and gawked at the sight sitting before her. "Kakashi...you're little...," she rubbed her eyes as if they were fooling her. An overwhelming feeling took over her.
It was Arashi's turn to laugh at Kakashi mockingly, and the silver headed boy actually looked insulted. "Thanks a lot." he muttered.
"And Jiraiya!" she said, staring into his younger appearance. "You...you're so...YOUNG!" honestly, she was beyond freaked.
Jiraiya wiggled his eyebrows in an ostentatiously arrogant manner. "I know, baby...," he made an effort in growling the most seductive way...
he failed miserbaly.
Her eyes unexpectedly fell upon Arashi's and she gasped. "And you're not Naruto!"
"Ya think!"
"Where the hell am I!" she lifted her blanket and took a few seconds to observe her surroundings. Everything around her, the walls, the floor, the bed, everything was outdated! And the horror: WHERE'S THE TV! She stared at the window and attempted to jump out.
Arashi's eyes widened and jumped two steps ahead. He wrapped his arms around her waist, causing her to come to a brief halt. "Wait! Suicide isn't the answer!"
"Let go of me you idiot!" Sakura face twisted into rage as she tried her hardest to pull away from him. "I'm not gonna kill myself!" she declared.
"That's what they all say!"
Kakashi rolled his eyes. "He's just saying that as an excuse to hold onto her longer...,"
PATHETIC.
"LET...GO!" Sakura finally got to the window and pushed herself out. She was capable of landing perfectly on her feet, but a certain blue eyed man suddenly fell with her from an exceptionally high height.
Kids looked up in the sky.
"Look! It's a bird!"
"It's a plane!"
"No, its-"
and both landed flat on the ground.
"A couple of idiots who fell from a window."
Arashi's eyes swirled with hurt and Sakura's face pressed against his chest.
"You idiot." her muffled voice rang through Arashi's sensitive ears.
Sakura's eyes dulled as she listened to the insanity spoken before her. She sat in her bed, covers pulled up to her waist, and a warm cup of tea sitting next to her. Tsunade didn't even recognize her. Her own sensei!
Kakashi didn't know her...
Even JIRAIYA! The very guy who attempted to get into bed with her several times didn't even recognize her!
Sakura sighed and held the crystal tied around her neck with concern. She knew for a fact that she was sent back in time. The past...
She's no idiot.
The man smirking next to her with an arm cast had to be Yondaime. And the boy sitting on her right must be little Kakashi. The man giving her weird facial signals must be young Jiraiya. And the woman, currently examining her every move, must be young...well actually Tsunade looked pretty much the same.
Sighing with depression, she slid into the covers and closed her eyes, hoping this will all go away. How did this even happen! Sure, fooling around with Naruto meant trouble, but she didn't want THIS kind of trouble!
"He always gets away with it...," she murmured.
"Who?" Arashi questioned.
"NARUTO! That's who!" she snapped.
Arashi snorted. "There you go with him again. That's a really stupid name."
"As oppose to Arashi?"
"Arashi happens to be a very sexy name-"
"Oh, will you two shut up!" Tsunade snapped. She looked between Sakura's horrifying stare, and Arashi's irritated glare. "Both of you are out of your freakin' minds." she muttered softly to herself. "Now, tell me." Tsunade softened. "What is your name?"
Sakura thought about this. If she answered too many questions, will if affect the future? She thought about this carefully. Well, the future is just about as messed up as Naruto's hair, so what the heck. "My name is Haruno Sakura."
Arashi and Jiraiya sighed. "Sakura...," they went into a perverted daze.
"Haruno...," Tsunade nodded her head with clear understanding. "So you are apart of the Haruno clan, right?"
Sakura was hesitant. "Yes...,"
"How old are you?"
"Nineteen."
Arashi and Jiraiya sighed. "That's good, she's not underage...," they giggled a manly giggle.
Tsunade began to twitch a little. Perverted guys always got on her nerves. "Are you a ninja? If so, what sort of abilities do you possess?"
"I am a ninja. And my abilites are practically the same as yours. I have super strength, healing capabilities...oh! I can summon Katsuyu at various times."
Tsunade looked mildly surprise. "But how?"
"You taught me."
Tsunade paused. But after moments of serious silence, she suddenly burst into fits of laughter. "Listen girl, the only apprentice I have is Shizune. And trust me, she's the last one I'll ever have." she thought. Shizune was sure a hell of a lot of handle. Her chakra control was just not good enough and her lack of stamina concered poor Tsunade dearly. She had no idea if Shizune would make it out as a decent ninja or not.
She'll be surprised to know that her student will become one of the most skilled in Konoha.
"But its true! You took me as your student and taught me-"
"Tell me, when was this?" Sakura noticed the taunting glint in Tsunade's eye.
Sakura crossed her arms with pride and determination. "Twenty years from now." she huffed. "I'm from the future." she said bluntly.
Arashi and Jiraiya sat there with utterly blank faces. "Huh. That log must've been harder than I thought." admitted the blond man.
"I have already come to a conclusion that it was made of metal." whispered Jiraiya.
Sakura took notice of the look on their faces and glowered at them. "I'm telling the truth. Why would I lie at a time like this!" she retorted.
Tsunade sighed. "It's probably memory loss."
"How can that be? She knows her name and her age-"
"I can't even tell if she's making this up or not. Her face is so...straight forward."
Sakura's eyes grew red. "That's because I am telling the truth!"
"Well, she certainly has your sense of 'outburst'." Jiraiya teased. "Maybe she is from the future."
"Thank you, Jiraiya." Sakura found at least some comfort.
"Will you sleep with me now?"
A huge vain appeared on Sakura's head.
"Jiraiya, will you shut up. She doesn't want to sleep with you." Arashi growled at his former sensei. Jiraiya simply shrugged.
Sakura sighed. "Thanks, Arashi." she muttered, despite her utter hate for him.
Arashi raised an eyebrow. "You're not irritated by me anymore?"
"No, not right at this moment."
"Great, now we can go out."
"Ughh...," Sakura signaled Tsunade for a little help.
Tsunade knew that type of face all too well. She's been there before. "All right you two! Get out of here. Sakura needs her rest."
"Oh, come on!" Arashi groaned.
Tsunade pushed Jiraiya and Arashi out and herself as well. "You should get some sleep. That blow to your head caused some serious damage." she said before leaving.
Sakura frowned knowing what she meant by that. "I am not crazy." she pouted.
"Probably not. But we all consider your story unbelievable."
Sakura's eyes shot open and she turned her head. "Oh, wow." she replied. "I didn't know you were still here."
Kakashi's eyes dulled. "If I had a penny for everytime I heard that."
"Sorry." she laughed nervously
"I was too intent on listening to your interesting answers." he told her.
"Interesting?"
"Future? Tsunade's apprentice? What's so un-interesting about that?" he cupped his chin.
Sakura didn't answer that.
There were various signs of confoundment hidden in Kakashi's eyes. However, as you already know, Sakura knew immeidately.
"What is it?"
"If what you say is true...what will become of me in the future?" Kakashi asked. "The first thing you said to me when you woke up was 'Kakashi-sensei', remember?" Sakura nodded her head slowly. "If so, shouldn't you be MY apprentice?"
Sakura sighed. "It's complicated. Team seven-,"
"Team seven?" Kakashi stared at her with the most considerate act of confusion.
"That's what we were. Team seven. You, me, Naruto, and...," she felt the knot in her throat grow bigger. "Sasuke." she sighed.
Kakashi nodded his head. "By the way you expressed everything, it is as if we...broke up?"
Sakura chuckled softly. "You're really sharp. Even as a kid...," she praised him.
Kakashi raised an eyebrow. "So what becomes of Team Seven?"
Sakura took great notice in Kakashi's curiousity and respected it. "As you know, Tsunade takes me as an apprentice. Naruto-"
"By the way, what does Arashi have anything to do with Naruto? Is he related in any way?"
Jeez, so many questions. Future Kakashi would usually just ignore all this and continue reading his precious...well, you know.
"I don't know. All I know is...," her mind drifted. She could just see that weird, goofy smile Naruto always held. It always sets her heart melting. "He looks exactly like him."
Kakashi nodded his head. "So what about Naruto?"
"He becomes Jiraiya's student."
"That's reassuring."
"Crazy, huh?" Sakura didn't seem the least bit excited.
"I can just image how Naruto turns out."
"Perverted." both muttered.
"And the other? Sasuke?"
"Yeah, Uchiha Sasuke." she sighed.
Kakashi's entire body suddenly stiffened. "Uchiha?" good and bad memories alike were stuck in his head. He felt like he suddenly couldn't move, it only happend a couple of years ago...the death of best friend.
"Yeah," she choked. "He's currently with...Orochimaru."
Kakashi blinked. "Orochimaru? Funny, he stopped by just a few hours ago while you were asleep."
Sakura's body numbed and she stammered, "O-Orochimaru? Here? In MY ROOM!" she was tempted to punch the thing closest to her.
Kakashi stepped back a little.
"I'll definitely kill him! And when that's done, I'll bring him back to life and kill him again!" her eyes burned with fury. "And again, and again, and again, and again-"
A tall figure standing against the door crossed his arms. "Who are you going to kill?" his sadistic voice rang through the ears of our pure hearted cherry blossom.
Orochimaru stood there with no emotion whatsoever.
