chapter 3 Small things part 2

Previously: Sakura gets the bullies banned from the park. She then makes the important decision to help her former friends until she again has someone to play with.

Sakura walked slowly home. She was feeling very smug. Probably by tomorrow the bullies would be banned from the park. The sun was going down and Sakura didn't want to be late for supper. She would have to start helping people tomorrow. At home Sakura ate supper and went to bed.

The next morning Sakura woke up feeling at least a little less depressed. She was actually looking forward to the day to come. After having breakfast she started out. The first problem came sooner than she had expected. Sakura was walking by Tenten's house when she heard talking. "But you guys! I can't clean this all up by my self". "Too bad Tenten. It's your house". "Please, my mom will wake up soon" said the voice that probably belonged to Tenten. "Wait wait don't go"!!!!!

Sakura decided not to reveal herself to Tenten. Tenten would just tell her to get lost, any way. Sakura saw an open window on the secant floor. She easily jumped from a tree to the window. She peeked over the windowsill. "Damn!!!" it was Tenten's mothers bed room. There was Tenten's mom, asleep. Sakura gave a sigh of relief. She jumped from the windowsill into the room. When she was half way across the room Tenten's mom stirred. Sakura quickly dived for an open closet door. She slid inside it and closed the door. Just in time. Tenten's mom got up and walked out the door. "Please let Tenten distract her while I'm helping" prayed Sakura. Sakura slipped out of the closet. She peeked around the door. No one was there, so she slipped out into the hall. She looked down the flight of stairs. She saw Tenten and her mom leaving. Sakura let out her breath. She hadn't even realized she'd been holding it. Sakura decided to start looking for the mess. It didn't take her long. Tenten's room and the playroom that ran of it were completely crashed. "This is going to be harder than I thought" sighed Sakura. Sakura began cleaning. When she had made a fair amount of progress she caught sight of a picture of the room before the party. The picture showed a very messy room. "I guess this room was messy to begin with" thought Sakura. I don't have to clean anymore. As Sakura headed toward the window, she heard a key turn in the lock downstairs. Sakura hurried to the window. She jumped out and landed on the ground bellow. Sakura smiled as she hurried towards the park.

Sakura arrived at the park where she saw a boy with a black braid standing by a bench. He looked worried. "I wonder what's wrong" thought Sakura. The boy (Lee) appeared to be looking for something. Lee seemed to give up and walked away, but Sakura fallowed him. Lee eventually arrived in an alley. He then sat down beside another boy. Lee began talking to the boy. "Tylo I know I had them. I only put them down for one second". "I don't know. Your dad is going to kill you. Those weapons are sacred" said Tylo. As the two boys sat in thought Sakura slipped of into the shadows.

Just as she had expected, some of her old friends were clustered around a box of weapons. They were talking

- Cool, real ninja weapons!!!!

- I think we should give them back

- Why they're just weapons, real ninja get them all the time.

- They're not just ordinary ninja weapons, they're family heirlooms.

Sakura watched as the kids separated into two sides. The side that wanted to keep the weapons was led by Ino, a girl with light blond hair. The side that wanted to give them back was led by a boy named Bay. Right behind Ino was Dano, (He probably blamed the garbage can on the other bullies) and right behind Bay was Sasuke. "Let's settle this with a competition" cried Bay. "What competition"asked Ino. "I don't know. Let's settle that over there, too". "OK".

As the kids ran out into the field, Sakura picked up the box of weapons and hurried on her way. When she arrived back at the alley, Tylo and Lee were still sitting there. Sakura slipped the box onto the bench beside them and slipped away. The sun began to set as she ran toward her house.

Afterthought: Next chap is Small things 3, It's the last small things. (Wild applause!!!!)
