City Of Angels
Chapter 7:
Sakura groaned; "Ugh, don't. I look awful" she ran a pale hand through her hair and sat on the floor, leaning on a wall, Sasuke sat down next to her, but before Ino had joined them, something caught her eye, "Ooh! Can't be with you right now Saky-poo, Shikamaru just got here, must annoy!" Ino skipped off towards the huddle of people and squeezed into the centre.
"Well…" started Sasuke,
"Well…" Sakura repeated, smoothing out her skirt. Sasuke gave her a funny look,
"What happened to you last night? Get hopped up on heroine?"
"No"
"Magic mushrooms?"
"No"
"Cannabis?"
"No! Why, were you?"
"Might have been"
Sakura turned to look at him, " what do you mean 'might have been?'" Sasuke sighed,
"I haven't been totally truthful to you, before I moved here to Tokyo, I lived in Osaka, me and my friends got involved with the police a lot, and not for the right reasons." Sakura's face remained expressionless as Sasuke told her his past.
"It started when my Mom died, I was about nine. At first all I did was mope about and stop talking as much, but when my brother started ignoring me, to go out with his friends, I changed too. I started cutting class, not doing as I was told, little stuff like that, but when I moved schools, I met Neji, Gaara and Kimmimaru. We started up a group, just of us four, I forget what it was called, but then we went round vandalizing stuff and tagging walls, most teenage boys do stupid things like that, right? That's what the police officer said when we first got caught, but it was when Gaara's brother, Kankuro, asked us to hide some weed for him, things went really wrong. We all gave it a try, liked it, wanted something stronger. So we met a guy in some club, never knew his name, but he sold us some heroine, skunk, and a bit of ecstasy, I was the one caught with it, so I got the punishment."
Sakura stared at him with wide eyes "what else have you done?"
"Got expelled from school seven times, I think, for attacking teachers, students, flunking tests, actually on that one I got bumped down a grade, I should be in the class above this one, err, what else…? Oh, I torched the toilets once, wit the rest of the guys, I got arrested for underage drinking, smoking and joy riding."
"Damn." she said staring at the dark haired boy "anything else or is that it?"
"No, I think that's it for now." the pair stood up as the warning bell rang "don't look so shocked, I'm only a year older than you!"

Hinata was walking down towards her locker, after picking up her gym kit and a few books, she shut her locker only to be pinned up against it by a certain red haired psychopath, "Tell me, Hyuuga, why does Sasuke ignore me?"
"I-I-I r-really don't -kn-kn-know, K-Karin-san." Hinata stuttered, her eyes avoiding Karin's harsh glare. The red-head dropped the girl and walked away, wiggling her hips and saying "why doesn't he love me" and more crap to her cronies. Hinata picked up her stuff and scurried off to class.
Back in Sakura's class, she and Sasuke had just arrived, they squeezed through the door at the same time (a/n Nyehehe, I do that all the time!) to find a triumphant looking Ino, sat on a bored but in pain Shikamaru who had been trying to sleep on a rather unstable desk.
"Ino!" yelled Sakura at the girl "Get off Shikamaru!" Ino shrugged stood up and walked over to Tenten to gossip bout someone "Are you alright?" Sakura said to Shikamaru, "she does this top me a lot, so I know that it hurts"
"Hn, troublesome women." Shikamaru stalked over to where Choji was stood eating a few boxes of pocky.
"Well!" Sakura walked over to Ino and Tenten, once again, Ino was picking on Tenten's underwear.
"Listen, Tenten, if you're going to wear a white shirt, wear a white bra! Or a pretty purple one like me !" The blonde flattened her shirt over her chest, giving the entire room a full view of that pretty purple bra.
Sasuke herd footsteps, Sakura was stood near the door, running over to her, he moved Sakura a few feet away from the door, seconds later, a yellow-haired idiot flew through the entrance, landing on his face, Naruto rolled onto his back and looked around the room with cerulean blue eyes, everyone was staring at him like he was some sort of weirdo (Pffft, that's totally untrue!) "He, he, sorry 'bout that guys!" Naruto got up and sheepishly walked over to Choji and Shikamaru "What up ma peeps?"
"Naruto just shut up" said Shikamaru in a low voice "please?"
* * *
Sakura looked at Sasuke, "for years we've been trying to find out why he does that to me, turns out he really is just an idiot!"
"Believe me, I know a lot of those!" Sasuke grinned at her then focused his attention on Ino; "Hey, blondie, would you mind showing us what underwear you're wearing again, Naruto missed it" Ino blushed an attractive colour of fuchsia,
"You'll never catch me showing my stuff to that perv!" everyone in the room laughed at this, a few boys yelling things like "what about me?" and "Do I get any of 'your stuff?'"
A little while later, Kakashi walked into the room, chuckling at a small orange book "Sit down please, everybody!" he looked up from his book and shut it, "does anyone know where Karin is?"
Karin was sat on a sink in the girls bathrooms on the first floor, basically, the ones that were out of order. "Karin" said Leiko (a/n her name means 'arrogance') "maybe he's not paying attention to you because he's shy, I mean, that little Sakura girl might be nothing to him or she might just be there to make you jealous…maybe"
"Hmm," said Karin, playing with the ends of her hair, what do you think, Kazu (a/n her name meaning 'obedient')
"Well" The girl started, living up to her hair colour "perhaps he just really doesn't like you!" the orange-skinned bleach blonde smiled, flashing her a little-bit-too-white-teeth. Karin glared at her,
"Shut up, now Hide's (a/n meaning 'superior') graduated, I'm in charge of you, don't say things that insult me! But you're right, what if that pink-haired girl gets in the way, we'll have to get rid of her…"

"Okay brats! Time for gym class!" Anko-sensei stood in front of the rows of girls "get yourselves into pairs and warm up; we're doing hockey today!" there was a monumental groan from the huddle of freezing teenage girls, all of them wearing the customary school gym uniform; this consisted of a pair of red, overly short-yet slightly too baggy to be fashionable- shorts, a loose, short-sleeved white t-shirt, knee-high white football socks and running shoes or plimsolls. As soon as Anko had shouted "pair up," Sakura made a bee-line towards Ino who wrapped her arms around the white-turning-blue girl.
Sakura was stood in the goal, armed only with a gum-shield, shin guards and a hockey stick, Tenten was coming towards her at full pelt, she whacked the ball at the pink-haired figure in goal. Her natural reactions kicking in, Sakura did whatever any suicidal person would do; she used her body to block a solid, plastic ball, hurdling towards her at almost 100 kilometres per hour…SMACK! "OOOOOOWWWWWW!"
Dun-dun-durrrn! To be continued...Duh! :3
