Chapter 10
The Trip of Revenge
The next trimester finally came and the newly couples were now talking even more to each other.
"I'm glad we did a good job of getting those two together." Sakura said to herself, in the desk.
Sasuke then arrived and sat on his desk.
"Ohayo, Sasuke." Sakura said plainly, leaning on her desk.
"You're missing a suffix at the end." He reminded.
"Fine, Sasuke… k-k-k… I can't say it!" Sakura yelled frustrated. "I'm just not used calling people with a suffix." Sakura moaned.
While the couple were talking, they were eyed by a group of girls in the other corner.
The end of the day came and Sakura didn't have any practice. Neither did Sasuke. The girls from before were talking on the way out of the Academy.
"Man, we can't get any revenge if there's tons of camera's and teachers around." A girl moaned.
"Yeah but they don't have any security outside the Academy." A girl cackled evilly.
"What are on about?" the girl asked.
"Well the only way outside into the main roads is the hill with the path." She began.
"Ah, I have an idea!" the girl yelled.
"Glad you got the point." And with that they made their way towards the place.
Meanwhile still in the Academy Sakura waited for Sasuke at his locker.
"I left my books at English. You go on ahead, I'll catch up to you later." He ordered to her.
A few minutes passed and Sakura was nearly at going down the hill, where it would lead to the main roads. She kept to side so she wouldn't bother anyone since she was walking slowly. A group of girls could be seen in a tiny distance.
"That's her!" one of the girls whispered to her leader.
"When the time is right, we'll push her out into the side okay?" She told them.
Sakura approached the girls and then Sasuke was able to catch up with her. He was just about to run down the hill when the girls pushed Sakura to the side which caused her to tumble into the trees and roll down into the thorn bushes at the end. Sasuke widened his eyes. He jumped into the other side, dodging the trees that were on his way.
Sakura tried to grab hold of something so that she could stop. Her hands were already bleeding from the previous attempts. She was just about to land into the thorny bushes when she pulled to a sudden halt. She looked behind her painfully. It was Sasuke and he had a lot of leaves in his hair.
"Are –pant- alright-pant-" he called out to her.
He then carefully dragged her behind a tree and she leaned on it.
"Come on." He panted, showing her his back so she could get on it.
She climbed on to his back slowly and he carefully climbed up the hill. Sakura was nearly going unconscious. She kept on opening and closing her eyes.
'She needs to rest. Just sleep already.'
'Just get her to hit her head on a branch and she will definitely re-'
But Sakura had just hit her head on a branch because Sasuke wasn't looking.
"Oops…"
'Well at least she's resting now.'
He carried on walking up the steep hill.

Sakura felt her head throbbing heavily and tried to open her eyes. Sounds of familiar voices could be heard. She slowly lifted her eye lids, showing a scene of the gang waiting for her to wake up.
"Sakura-chan, you're awake!" Ino cheered as she hugged her blank looking friend.
She was confused why Tenten was looking scared. Ino noticed this and turned to the petrified girl.
x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x
A day later, they all went back to school normally except Tenten was absent.
"Why isn't Tenten here?" Sakura whispered to Sasuke during class.
"She had to go to a therapist about her being afraid of hospitals and dentists." Sasuke whispered back.
Sakura gave a –what-the-fuck-look. Sasuke then gave her an –I-know-look.
After school Sakura went to the dojo. She saw Kakashi pinning a notice on the board.
"Ah, Sakura, you're just the person that I wanted to talk to." Kakashi said, walking up to his student.
"What do you want Kakashi-sensei?" Sakura asked.
"We have another tournament next week but it's only a practice match. This is the team we're going to face at the nationals." Kakashi informed.
"Okay, I'll get to work then."
"But you have to ask Sayaka and Sai to help you practice now. One of the girls in the kendo team was in the nationals and she is known for aggressive swings so she never won. But you still have to be careful because I just found out that you're competing with her."
Sakura gulped. She tried doing her best to practising.
Later on Sakura asked the couple to coach her after they got their dogi on. Sakura explained what Kakashi had told her and they got very surprised.
"No…" Sayaka said slowly covering her mouth.
"What's wrong?" Sakura asked seriously.
"The-the g-girl y-you're…" Sayaka paused again.
"What she's saying is that the girl you're competing with was the person that both of us fought. She's dangerous that's all we can say." Sai said it for her.
"What happened? Did you win?" Sakura asked eagerly.
"I just won since her attacks were so hard. But before the matches, she threatens you into dropping out of the nationals. But once you ignore her, she'll try to kill you out there."
"But what about Sayaka?"
Sayaka paused and sat down, trying to calm down at the incident.
"Let's just say that Sayaka ended up in hospital after she got hit once by her. She stayed there for weeks since she had broken ribs."
Sakura widened her mouth.
"I'll try to calm her down so we'll start training tomorrow." Sai informed before going to Sayaka, who was seriously going pale.
Sakura picked up her shinai and started to practice her swings again. She thought about the girl and then remembered what her name was.
"Kazaki Miyako…" She silently called out her name.

Practice Tournament.
"Haruno-san has a sprained ankle, I'm afraid she won't recover until a few weeks time." The doctor announced.
The sound of an ambulance could be heard, carrying two injured girls with it.
'MIDTERM EXAMS. STUDY THE WEEK BEFORE.'
(A/N: The preview is in order. That's the only hint I can give you. –Cackles evilly-)
