ME: Hey, guys, it's been awhile. This is one of my shorter chapters. Please R&R.

DISCLAIMER: I do not own Naruto. I wish.

Bam!

Are you joking me? Again? Wait, what time is it? I look at my clock. Oh, it's 10. Okay, that's not so bad. I wait for a while to make sure that nobody is there. Then, I stride across the room and open the door. No one's there! What is going on?

"Ugh!" I say, in frustration.

I stumble back across the room to a window and yank it open. Happily, I breathe in the fresh air. "Ahhh."

"Ow! Holy crap!" I open my eyes, to see this huge owl (Ino uses owls in this story). Ugh. Ino-pig. Her owl-thing scratched me on my neck. Now I look wicked-ish. Hahaha. I'm a pirate.

"Yeah, Puggy? What is it?" I ask the owl, flipping out my hand. The owl rolls its eyes. As if it understands me. Which, hah, it doesn't…right? The owl sticks out its leg, exposing the scroll attached, and I pull it off. I open it and read:

Hey Ruru (Ino's nickname for Sakura…in this story),

I just want to tell you. You know that hot guy who used to live her but moved? Sasuke what-a-what-what? Yeah? Well, he is back! And HOTTER than ever! Ladies, I am telling you, major burning. Message me back!

-Ino

Ha! As if you'll chase him. We all know that you're head-over-heels in love with Shika. You LOVE his pineapple-hair thing that he's got goin' on. Hey, what time is it?

OH MY GOD! 8:00?! I'm late!

Ow. Puff. Puff. Ow. Puff. Puff. Tap. Wait, tap? I turn around.

"Oh, good morning Shizune!" I say cheerfully, bowing. Suck up and you go up…In terms of social class, not heaven.

"Hello, Sakura! Um, Tsunade-sama wants to see you." Shizune informed me.

"Um, OK!" I said, nervously. What the flip did I do now? Oh my god. Please don't tell me she found out that it was me that did the frogs and the mice. Oh please lord, no.

I ran to her building, looking at everyone and waving goodbye as I passed. Who knows? This could be the last time anyway ever sees me alive again…hahaha, just kidding.

Reaching my destination, I kick open the door and run up the stairs to her room. As I reach her door, I pull it open and…fall into the room. Aren't I graceful?

As I straighten myself out, I hear snickering. Doesn't this kid realize that I will kick their scrawny ass as soon as I get out of this building? Unless it's one of my friends. Then, I will forgive them. But, this voice sounds distinctly masculine…and familiar. I look up. OMFG.

"You! The pervert!" I scream. Tsunade looks amused. What's so funny? A girl's got to protect her dignity.

"Hi, pinkie." He says. What? Pinkie? Oh, my hair. For a second, I thought he was saying something perverted, or insulting.

"Yeah, so what. My hair's pink, big deal. It's not like it's ugly, chicken-butt." I reply. That's right. I went there. He just raises an eyebrow. What?! Did this kid just call me ugly? This guy is really gonna get his ass kicked later.

"Hey, guys. I hate to interrupt the name-calling and all, but I have to get down to business." Tsunade-sama says, interrupting our…loving interaction.

"This is Uchiha Sasuke. He is a new ninja here. He is quite advanced and needs a guide, and because…"

I interrupt, "I'm sorry, but I feel sorry for whoever has to baby-sit this asshole."

They look at me, clearly amused.

"What?" I ask, honestly confused.

"Ahem," Tsunade clears her throat, "Sakura, you ARE the baby-sitter."

What? Is she joking? What, is this some baby-sitting-assholes joke or something? 'Cause, I'm really not getting it.

Tsunade looks at my confused expression and frowns. She is frowing, while she is SERIOUS.

Oh, god no. I am the baby-sitter.

NOTE: HEY! Please R&R, and send me a message too, if you feel like it.
