AN: HOLY KRABBY PATTYIES! I'M SO VERY SORRY FOR TAKING SO LONG!I HAVE NO EXCUSE, sorta! Well I'll just continue with the story. Oh, and nothing, absolutely nothing , is mine! =(
"Sasuke…" talking
Is… thinking
A… Ookami, Shukaku, or Kyuubi saying to their hosts
"Nice…" the demon took over the host and is talking
Person the words on the piece of paper, floor, etc.
"Bravo! I can't wait to see the Battle of the Bands in 3 months. All of you keep practicing and see you tomorrow." The end of the day bell rang and everyone went home. Sakura dropped of Gaara at his house, then went to hers. The next 3 months will be tough, that's for sure.
BEEP BEEP BEEP BE- SMASH!
"Fucking alarm clock. If you don't want to get smashed, don't wake me up, you piece of crap!" Sakura said to her alarm clock. She glared at it for a few seconds before getting up. It had been 2 months. In a month would be the Battle of the Bands. Today was a Friday, YAY!
Sakura went to her closet and got her clothes for the day, then went to the bathroom to take a shower. When she was done, she towel dried, then went to put on her clothes. Today, she put on some thighish-length mesh socks with her black knee-length boots. She also had a skirt on, with shorts under, that had chains. As a shirt, she had on a collar shit that ended about an inch above the elbow, with buttons there. There was a huge rip at the shoulder blade of the shirt, but she wore fish-netting under to cover it up. She also wore some mesh elbow-length gloves, with black wrist-length, fingerless gloves. Sakura had also added a black tie to add some flare. And, to top it all off, there was a black choker.
"Fuck, the scars are showing." And true to her words, there were some scars showing on her face. She just added some cover-up and her face looked scar-less. Sakura went to the other side of her room and opened up another closet. But, inside this one were hundreds of other alarm clocks. She got one from the very top.
"Hehe, tick tick." She started to head to the side of her bed were the destroyed alarm clock was. She then put the new one where the old one was, and threw the old one away. Sakura looked at her clock.
"I should go wake up panda-chan," she mumbled, "Or I could leave his sorry ass here. Decisions decisions."
"Awww, Saku-chan, don't be so mean to poor Gaa-kun. Just go get him," Shi said coming into the room.
"Whatevs, but if he doesn't wake up when I tell him to, there will be consequences," Sakura said with a sadistic smile. She started to head out, but got her keys, phone, and messenger bag first. The pink-haired jinchuriki went to the garage and got on her Kawasaki Ninja, roaring the engine as she got ready to leave. But first, she put on her black jacket. Shi shrunk herself so that she could fit in the one of the pockets. Sakura got out of the garage and parked it in front of her neighbors house. She got off and went to the front door and banged on the door with her fist. Finally, someone opened the door. It was Temari already ready for school. Her clothes consisted of an Invader Zim sweater, with the hood on, black skinny jeans, and some black classic converse.
"What do I owe this pleasant surprisely visit, hmm?" Temari asked sarcastically.
"Surprisely? Seriously Tema-chan? Well I'm here to pick up panda-chan. I offered to take him to school, member, you member?" Sakura asked .
"Yes, yes, and holy poptart I forgot about that!"
"Ok, I'm ready. Lets go princess," Gaara said, appearing from out of nowhere. His clothes consisted of a grey Green Day t-shirt, black baggy jeans, and grey converse.
"Whatevs," she said heading to the motorcycle. She tossed him her extra helmet, then put on hers. Sakura got on first, then Gaara sat behind her. She started the engine and headed off to school. It took about 5 minutes. When they arrived, Naruto, Kiba, and Hinata were waiting for them. Naruto was wearing a white shirt with the boy sign on it, a black+white flannel over it, a white choker with spikes, and black skinnys. Kiba wore a grey leather jacket with fish-net under it, grey semi-skinnys, and grey+black converse. Hinata had worn a purple+black sweater, purple skinnys with chains, and knee-high black converse.
"Wow, you look beautiful Saku-hime," Naruto said, wide-eyed.
"Thanks, Naru-kun!" Sakura gave Naruto a peck on the lips.
"Yo, Gaara dude, who ya lookin at?" Kiba asked an oblivious Gaara.
"Hmm, is my wittle panda-chan all grown up! Who's the lucky girl? Who? Who? Who?" Sakura said, jumping up and down and up and down and up and etcetera really fast. All Gaara did was point to a girl who was coming off of the worst bus that you could even imagine. The girl had pale, lavender eyes and blonde hair that ended at her waist. She tied her hair at the end with a bow. She was wearing a black, long sleeved shirt with a baggy sweatshirt over it. She also wore gray, frayed, old, skinny jeans with dull black converse to top it all. She was the new kid that started on Monday. Earphones were in her ears. Sakura strained her ears to hear the song she was hearing. Sakura widened her eyes. It was Tears Don't Fall by Bullet For My Valentine. The new girl turned off her music and started to go inside.
It's about to be summer and she's wearing a sweatshirt. Hmmm… peculiar. HOLY SHIT! I said a big word~
Saku-chan, that girl has scars on her wrists. They are self-inflicted. I also haven't sensed anymore new people arriving at Konoha since she arrived. Only her.
So she was either abandoned, or she ran away.
RIIIING!
"Everyone, you should head to your period one class right now. Homeroom was canceled, due to one person I will not say the name of. But I will say it starts with Kaka-, and ends with -shi. So go my minions, go and enjoy your first period. BWAHAHAHAH!" Everyone guessed it was Tsunade who made the announcement. The new girl started to head into the classroom. Her first class was science with Orochimaru. She quickly went and sat down.
"What up Orochi-sensei! It is I, Sakura Haruno, at your service if you have a Snickers bar!" Sakura said while going to her seat and noticing that the new girl of 5 days was in her class.
"Excuse me, but sensei, who is the new girl? I think I was not paying much attention when you introduced her on Monday." Hinata asked.
"Her name issss Shion. Now take a seat Hinata-ssan," Orochimaru told Hinata. He had become more tolerable when people found out he was just mean to in force his rules, but he could be real nice.
Flashback
It was about to be the end of first period. Today was hectic. Orochimaru had made the class read 5 chapters, do a quiz on them, write an essay, and do 5 worksheets for homework. Only Sakura and Hinata were able to do all the work, but barely. The next day, he handed everything out. Finally, he went to go hand out their papers.
"Great job Ssakura-ssan and Hinata-ssan. Both of you got perfect sscoress on everything and sstill turned in your homework. Here'ss a homework passs, quizz passs, and Ssnickerss bar for each of you," Orochimaru told them with a nice smile.
"A-arigato sensei?" Hinata stated/asked Orochimaru.
"Fuck the bullshit! Where's the real Orochi-freaking-maru?" Sakura asked/yelled.
"I only act like a mean persson to in force the ruless. But, if you guyss did my work and actually lisstened, you would ssee a nice sside of me," Orochimaru said. Everybody had oohed and aahed.
End Flashback
"Now everyone, turn to page 578 and ssstart reading the chapter." Everybody did as told. This caused a small smile to appear on Orochimaru's face.
RIIING!
"No homework for today classs. Enjoy your weekend. Alsso, letss give around of applausse for Ssakura-ssan, Hinata-ssan, and Shion-ssan. All three of them have a 4.0 average." Only the Freaks had started clapping. And they clapped loudly. When they were done everybody headed out.
~~~~~~~~~~~Skipping to Lunch, YAY~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Shion headed into the cafeteria. But before she could go sit down and eat her packed lunch, Ino and her possy were in front of her.
"Looky here girls. This girl is so out-of-touch. Just look at what she's wearing." Ino said while laughing with her obnoxious voice.
Ami laughs loudly and says, "How could you have gotten that problem wrong, even a fifth grader knows that!" She was referring to when in math, Shion got a problem wrong. But, it was a very hard equation. Shion puts her head down and tries to shuffle right by. But, Ami pushes her, then Karen trips her.
"Pathetic, why don't you like Sasuke-kun, or like the same clothes we do? Huh!" Karen said while slapping her in the face once, very hard.
"Hey, did you hear she goes to the library EVERY night! What a loser! Fucking Goth wannabe." Ami says.
"She's also a weepy-washy attention seeker, what a bitch! God, I just hate people who are different. Aren't I right girls?" Ino asked.
"Of course Ino-chan!" Karen practically yelled. Shion looked like she was about to go into tears. But she just kept her head down. She would just ask for a pass to go to an empty classroom later, just like all the other times.
But, Sakura had heard enough. She went up to Ino and slapped her.
"I just heard you hate people who are different. But, have you ever considered the following?
"It's the same fucking story everyday: A girl in dark colors gets off the worst bus you can imagine. You know, the one with all the dumber-than-dirt country kids who are swearing every five words. Well, the girl is just listening to punk rock, gothic rock, heavy metal, or any other dark music to pass the time. She shuts off the iPod and walks into the school. You and your friends are standing inside because you're too much of a fucking pussy to stand outside in LATE MAY in you pretty new Capri pants and new Hollister t-shirt.
"You point at her and whisper to your friends about how out-of-touch she is, just because she's dressed in a baggy hooded sweatshirt and frayed old jeans. Also, she's maintaining a 3.785-4.0 GPA on a 4.0 scale, while you're boarder line failing. You loudly insult her, and talk to her in an obnoxious voice. But, she just keeps her head down and shuffles right by.
"You fucking laugh loudly and say, 'How could you have gotten that one wrong? Even a fifth grader knows that!' when she answers a question wrong in class. You and friends push her around in the hallways, and trip her in the stairwells. You think she should start drooling over the boys at school, and should wear the same clothes you do.
"And yet, no matter what you do, she doesn't say anything.
"Isn't it hilarious that she can be quiet all week, but still have to put up with more shit than the whore giving out free blowjobs on the bus? Isn't it funny that you don't mind fucking a random guy every night, but you go around ripping on her just because she studies in the library every night? Isn't it just bloody fucking hilarious, that she needs to sign a pass to the bathroom just to run into an empty classroom to cry at least once a week? Are you laughing yet?
"HAVE YOU EVER CONSIDERED WHAT HER LIFE IS LIKE? HOW THE FUCK CAN YOU GO UP TO HER FACE AND TRASH HER GOOD NAME, CALLING HER A 'FREAKY GOTH WANNABE' OR A 'WEEPY-WASHY ATTENTION SEEKER', AND NOT ONCE STOP AT ALL TO CONSIDER WHY YOU NEVER SEE HER PARENTS AROUND, OR WHY SHE ALWAYS WEARS LONG SLEEVES, EVEN IN THE SUMMER?
"HOW IN GOD'S GOOD NAME CAN YOU TREAT HER LIKE SHIT, JUST BECAUSE SHE IS THE ONE PERSON YOU CAN NEVER BE: HERSELF UNTO HERSELF? There's a fine line between being an idiot and being brave.
"Being brave is not giving random guys a blowjob in broad daylight. It is not fucking some random guy on a Friday night just to say you fucked him. Being brave isn't talking to some guy, or dumping your current boyfriend.
"BEING BRAVE IS TURNING THE OTHER CHEEK WHEN PEOPLE SLAP YOU! IT'S FORGETTING THE INSULTS AND REMEBERING THE COMMENTS! TRUE BRAVERY IS GOING TO A SCHOOL WHERE YOU
SHOULD FEEL SAFE AND INSTEAD, YOU FEEL LIKE YOU'RE MARCHING RIGHT INTO HELL! TRUE BRAVERY IS BEING TRUE TO THE ONE PERSON, THE ONLY PERSON, WHO MATTERS: YOU!
"KEEP LAUGHING, YOU COCK-SUCKING BITCHES, CAUSE SHE'S GOING FAR AND YOU'RE HARDLY MOVING!" Sakura finished saying it all with her yelling at some parts. She grabbed Shion's hand and led her to her table with her friends. When they were there, she sat her between Gaara and herself.
"Sooo, what up?" Kiba asked trying to lift the tension. Hinata and Naruto, noticing what Kiba was doing, tried to start a conversation to include everyone else.
"Nothing much, Kiba-kun."
"The ceiling, retard," Naruto said, adding a smirk.
"Oh hell no, you better fucking apologize!"
"Why don't you go suck a dick, dog breath!"
"Stupid Freak!"
"Are you really calling me stupid? You HYPOCRITE!"
"YEAH,I AM,YOU DUMBASS!"
"YOU GAY FAG!"
"YOU BLONDE BITCH!"
"TAKE THAT BACK!I AM NOT A BLONDE BITCH,YOU BASTARD!"
"NEVER YOU APESHIT!"
"DOG FUCKER!"
Kiba gasped with a look of hurt. "I can't believe you called me that."
Sakura had caught on to what they were doing and had an idea. She went behind both Kiba and Naruto and bonked them on their heads.
"Believe it, ass wipes!"
RIIING!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~Skippy to P.E. YAY~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"GOOD MORNING YOUTHFUL STUDENTS! LETS DO WHAT WE REGULARLY DO TODAY! YOUTHFUL SHION WILL BE WITH TEAM SABAKU! REMEMBER, DO 500 LAPS AROUND THE GYM, 100 PUSH-UPS, SIT-UPS, AND PULL-UPS. AFTER, DO SOME TEAMWORK PRACTICE!"
~~~~~~~~With Team 7~~~~~~~
"Come on you wussy, lets start the runs!" Sakura yelled to Sasuke. They still hated each other but not as much… really.
"Shut the fuck up you fucking pixie!" He yelled back.
"Don't talk to my girlfriend that way, you bastard!" Naruto yelled.
"What are ya gonna do dead last?"
"Race ya you snotty-nosed brat!" With that, they both started to run faster. Sakura didn't want to be left behind, so she ran faster to catch up. Her emerald eyes turned to a forest green. Her eyes had just added a bit of black in it for anger.
"When this is over, I will kill both of you!" she screamed while running even faster. Both Naruto and Sasuke saw this, and tried to run faster. They both nodded to each other, they would finish this race later. They had to first stop the pink demon from chasing them.
"Formation A-3?" Naruto asked.
"Formation A-3," Sasuke replied.
(AN: I was gonna end it here, but I owe you guys.)
Naruto put his hands together in the Reverse Ram form. Sasuke had put his hands in the forms of Tiger, Boar, Ox, and Dog.
"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" Naruto yelled, making 100s if copies of himself.
"Bunshin no Jutsu," Sasuke said while transforming into a perfect Naruto.
All the Narutos had started to run in different directions, but in groups of 3.
Sakura started to get pissed. Her eyes turned an even darker shade of emerald than before. She then started to growl. Sakura also put her hands in the forms of the Dog, Boar, Monkey, Bird, and Sheep.
"Summoning Jutsu!"
50 small sized (Dog sized) wolves appeared before Sakura, bowing.
"You have called for us, Sakura-sama?" one of the wolves asked.
"Yes, chase after those clones and attack them. If you find the real ones, contact me immediately."
"Hai!" all of the wolves said in unison. Then, they all started to chase the clones, dispelling them one by one.
Ookami-chan, I need help. Help me catch those 2 bastards, so I can RIP THEM TO SHREDS!
Ok ok, lets get this over with.
Sakura had kept punching clones as she ran. There was now an even 100 to 50, with the clones in the lead.
Go 5 meters ahead, then turn left and go 13 meters forward. They should be the ones running faster than the others. Now leave me alone! I want to sleep! Bye-bye!
Thanks!
Sakura had followed the wolf demon's instructions. There in front of her were to Narutos running away and to the teacher. She sped up, then when she was closer, she used a chakra infused jump to tackle them. Luck was not on her side though. They landed in front of Gai-sensei. One of the Narutos poofed back to Sasuke. When all 3 of them looked up, they saw Gai-sensei with anime tears in his eyes.
"SO YOUTHFUL! ALL OF YOU SHOULD FOLLOW IN THEIR EXAMPLE AND PLAY A YOUTHFUL GAME OF TAG!"
Everybody sweat dropped at that.
RIIING!
"NOW LEAVE MY YOUTHFUL STUDENTS!"
Everyone didn't wait a second to leave. But, they were all still in their P.E. uniforms. All of them went to their last class of the day. Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke were all walking to music, TOGETHER! If this didn't surprise all of the other students, the next thing sure would. They were all also LAUGHING together. Many of the students fainted because of this.
"Haha, look at the other kids!" Naruto laughed after he said this.
"Did some actually faint?" Sasuke asked while chuckling.
"BELIEVE IT!" Sakura screamed, also laughing.
"Hey! That's my catchphrase."
"It's a stupid one at that," Sasuke said while looking at Naruto, filled with boredom.
"Don't diss the catchphrase," Naruto said while glaring at Sasuke.
"Both of you, shut the fuck up, before I kill you both," Sakura warned.
"Very painfully," she added as an afterthought.
As they were in their little discussion, they didn't notice that many of Sasuke's fan girls were glaring at the group, particularly Sakura.
"How the hell did they become so friendly?" ino asked.
"Ya, and what happened to that Gaara freak?" Karen questioned.
"And that Hinata bitch," Ami added.
They didn't know that the both of them, plus Kiba were right behind the group of girls.
"Did you just call my girl a bitch?" Kiba asked while cracking his knuckles. Gaara and Hinata just glared at the group.
"Ya, so whatcha gonna do about it?" Karen asked.
"This!"
Temari had just punched Karen in the nose, while Hinata punched ino. Also, Ten-ten had kicked Ami in the chin.
(AN: You go girls!)
After that, the trio left to the nurses office. While the other trio plus 2 went to music class.
"Good afternoon class. Today will be another practice session for the bands. I hope none of you mind?" Kurenai-sensei asked. The whole class shook their heads no.
"Ok then, would… Foo' Snizzle come up please?"
The boys in that band didn't move. One of them started to speak.
"Im sorry sensei, but we have withdrawn from the contest. Without Kain, we just won't play without him."
Now that everyone noticed, one of the band members was not there.
"I'm sorry about that. So, then will Uchiha Crows come down and play?"
Sasuke, Suigetsu, and Juugo had gone out of their seats and went to their places. His fan girls started cheering very loudly. But, the freaks clapped softly. The others wondered what had happened to them to actually at least like Sasuke.
"We will be playing False Pretense. A song that my friends, as you call them, the Freaks made me," Sasuke then smiled kindly at the Freaks group. Finally he started to play the song.
(AN: I know you guys are wondering about this change of heart with the Freaks and Sasuke. It will all be explained in due time!)
Sasuke
Oh, it's time to let it go.
The world's got a funny way of turning 'round on you,
When a friend tries to stab you right in the face!
Losing faith in everything I thought I hoped I knew,
Don't sweat it, it was set on false pretense.
Betrayed, but not gonna be willing to change,
And it doesn't seem likely to fade.
Betrayed, but not gonna be willing to change,
Cu-cu-cu-cuz you know…
It's sacrifice!
False pretense you'll hurt again,
Stop pretending to deny,
False pretense you'll hurt again.
All along you know you thought you got the best of me,
But you were wrong and I'm laughing tight in your face.
I cannot believe you claimed you were my family,
don't sweat it - it's set on false pretense!
Betrayed but not gonna be willing to change,
And it doesn't seem likely to fade.
Betrayed, but not gonna be willing to change,
Cu-cu-cu-cause you know…
It's sacrifice!
False pretense you'll hurt again,
Stop pretending to deny,
False pretense you'll hurt again.
(Spoken) Guitar
Oh, it's time to let it go.
I can't seem to understand how you turned out to be so cold.
You tried but were caught red handed, are you happy with your role?
The song had turned a bit softer at this part, and Sasuke grabbed the mike and started to say:
It's funny to me how you've turned into such a joke…
Then the beat turned quicker, and he continues to sing.
It's sacrifice!
False pretense you'll hurt again,
Stop pretending to deny,
False pretense you'll hurt again.
So play the game until you run out.
And play the game into my hand.
Sasuke stepped away from the mike and bowed. Everyone clapped, some more louder than other.
"Good job. Next up is Deathly Blows."
Gaara and his band had started to head down the steps. When he got to the mike, he took it out of its stand.
"This song is for a special girl out there in the audience."
After saying that, he stared at Shion. She turned a light shade of pink from that.
Gaara
Naruto
Until the day I die
I'll spill my heart for you, for you
Until the day I die
I'll spill my heart for you
As years go by
I race the clock with you
But if you died right now
You know that I'd die too
I'd die too
You remind me of the times
When I knew who I was
I was
But still the second hand will catch us
Like it always does
We'll make the same mistakes
I'll take the fall for you
I hope you need this now
Cause I know I still do
Until the day I die
Until the day I die
I'll spill my heart for you
Until the day I die
Until the day I die
I'll spill my heart for you
Should I bite my tongue?
Until blood soaks my shirt
We'll never fall apart
Tell me why this hurts so much
My hands are at your throat
And I think I hate you
But still we'll say, "remember when"
Just like we always do
Just like we always do
Until the day I die
Until the day I die
I'll spill my heart for you
Until the day I die
Until the day I die
I'll spill my heart for you
Yeah I'd spill my heart!
Yeah I'd spill my heart for you!
My hands are at your throat
And I think I hate you
We made the same mistakes
Mistakes like friends do
My hands are at your throat
And I think I hate you
We made the same mistakes
Made the same mistakes
Until the day I die
I'll spill my heart for you, for you
Until the day I die
Until the day I die
I'll spill my heart for you, for you
Until the day I die
Until the day I die
I'll spill my heart for you
Until the day I die
Until the day I die
Until the day I die!
Once the song ended, everyone clapped exactly like when they clapped with Sasuke.
"Excellent. Finally, it's Heaven on Earth's turn."
As they went down, Sakura handed each of them the papers with their parts in it. Once they were to the stage, Sakura grabbed the mike.
"Since all the others before us made a little speech before their performance, I will 2. This song will be something that happened to someone I knew. Interpret it however you wish."
After she had said that, no one saw the lone tear that fell from her eye when she turned around.
Sakura
Well, I couldn't tell you
Why she felt that way
She felt it every day
And I couldn't help her
I just watched her make
The same mistakes again
What's wrong, what's wrong now?
Too many, too many problems
Don't know where she belongs
Where she belongs
She wants to go home
But nobody's home
That's where she lies
Broken inside
With no place to go
No place to go
To dry her eyes
Broken inside
Open your eyes
And look outside
Find the reasons why
You've been rejected
And now you can't find
What you've left behind
Be strong, be strong now
Too many, too many problems
Don't know where she belongs
Where she belongs
She wants to go home
But nobody's home
That's where she lies
Broken inside
With no place to go
No place to go
To dry her eyes
Broken inside
Her feelings she hides
Her dreams she can't find
She's losing her mind
She's falling behind
She can't find her place
She's losing her faith
She's falling from grace
She's all over the place, yeah
She wants to go home
But nobody's home
That's where she lies
Broken inside
With no place to go
No place to go
To dry her eyes
Broken inside
She's lost inside, lost inside
Oh oh, ya
She's lost inside, lost inside
Oh oh, ya
When she was done, everyone was quiet. After a few moments of silence, everyone clapped loudly. Some of the more emotional one were crying. But, also some of the tough ones. They were crying without noticing apparently.
"That was b-beautiful girls."
RIIING!
"Bye class, see you all tomarrow! Tata!"
The whole group of the Freaks and Sasuke went to Sakura.
"Saku-hime, that was amazing!" Naruto said while going to hug his girlfriend, but found he couldn't. Sand was wrapped around his legs.
"Brothers first, idiot," Gaara said. He hugged Sakura and gave her a quick peck on the cheek. Then, he let naruto go. He quickly ran and pecked his Sakura on the mouth.
"Hey everybody, lets go to my house! Its gonna be a sleep over of course!" Sakura yelled.
There, the end of this chappie! Toon in for the next chappie! Here's a preview of what happens!
"So why did you guys become friends?" Hinata asked the three.
