Sakura's POV
Please tell me that he didn't just ask me that. Please.
....
Nope, he did.
What the hell is wrong with this guy? Of course, who do you think I was? I am Haruno Sakura, the girl who's super cool and awesome and kick anyone's ass in this entire school. I'm the girl who beat the shit out of you, hello? Do you have like a temporary memory loss or something, because I REALLY thought you were smarter than this. Stupid jackass.
"What do you mean 'who are you?' She's Sakura!" exclaimed Naruto. Yeah, go boy! Go tell him not to ask that kind of question!
"I know what her name is," well you sure didn't sound like you did, "I just want to know how she beat the shit out of me the day before."
"Uh, maybe it's because she's strong? Dude, accept it and move on for heck's sake! What the hell is wrong with you?"
"Yeah," I said, pointing at Naruto and Gaara,"these guys never got beaten by girls but they weren't as shocked as you, buddy." I ignored the cries of 'Sakura-chan! You're soo mean!' and 'I'm gonna kill you'. I needed to concentrate, so I can figure out what is going on inside that stupid head of his.
"You don't get it?" he sighed like we were the idiots here. Hello? You are the one who randomnly came up to me and asked me 'who are you?' bullshit! It's me who's supposed to be angry, not you!
"No. I don't get it. Care to explain it to me, pretty boy?" I asked, sarcasm dripping in my voice. Naruto snickered behind me at my nickname for the bastard, 'pretty boy'. Ha, I am so good at this.
He glared at me for a minute, than he said, "we need to talk in private."
"Yeah, and what makes you think that I will agree to that? For all I care, you could drag me to the roof and start another fight. AGAIN."
"I promise," he said, ignoring the dark look that Gaara and Naruto sent him for they didn't know I fought with him, "I don't do that kind of disgraceful act again. I promise and I never go back on my word."
I looked at him for a moment. He seemed to be serious this time, the way he said it. His usually emotionless eyes held something I've never seen before...rage, confusion, and this other thing....fear? Seriously?
"Sure. Meet me at the roof this lunch," damn, there goes my big lunch, "and don't be late."
He broke a tiny smile, a geniune smile I might add, and walked away, satisfied. Damn it, if this isn't interesting as I think it is, I'm going to kill that guy for making me miss another lunch. Again.
Sai's POV
She agreed. That's good.
I just need to ask her what her connection to her.
And if she turns out to be close to her than...than I'm dead. Of course.
Damn it, Ino Yamanaka didn't warn me about the kind of mess I was going to be on! Than, of course, who would've thought that Sakura was close to her? But seriously, she could've like warned me or something. At least warn me that she's not an ordinary girl or something so I can get a hunch that she is abnormal. Maybe not abnormal but you know what I mean.
I mentally hit myself for not noticing earlier. Her movements were so fluid, graceful like she was dancing but it was so brutal at the same time. I saw her movements thousands of times. Of course I should have noticed it. Danzou-sama is going to have my head if he finds out about this. Ugh.
--

Ring.
This is it. The bell rang, now I have to go to roof and confront this all. I just have to confront her and ask about the connection. Not a big deal. So not a big deal.
Right. I'm not even fooling myself doing this.
I tried to think rationally as I walked out of the classroom, heading to the roof. I have absolutely no reason to be scared, right? If she's close to her, fine. It has absolutely nothing to do with me, right? Of course, what are you talking about. I'm safe and sound. So why in the freaking world am I so nervous? It feels like I'm confessing that I'm murderer or something (A.N/Ironic, heh?). Goddamn it. Leave it to my gang to make everything so hard. If they've beaten her up when she first met them...but that would've been impossible since she beat me.
Before I knew it, I came face to face with the door to the roof. I could feel my heart pumping, fear running through my stupid body who thinks its funny to make me all nervous about asking one tiny, harmless question. Stupid body.
I opened the door and went inside, taking a deep breath. The cool air hit me as soon as I stepped inside, but I realized that there were no signs of Sakura here. I shrugged, figuring she was late because of her emo friend and knucklehead. I decided to sit on the rail for support and leaned down to look at the below. It was amazing, this school. It's huge, of course, but the students in those each classroom were as unique as hell. There's knucklehead punk who got 95%average overall, there's gothic, emo-kid punk with 96%average. Not to mention all the giggly girls that sat beside their so-called prince got the average ot 92%at least. The ice-prince with chicken-ass hairstyle got 97% average, which is pretty much being perfect on all subject.
But all of them were pretty much nothing compare to the pink-haired beauty I was about to confront. She was the one who beat the shit out of me besides my father, the girl who got 99%average and the only 1%average she didn't get was because of the property damage that she did when fighting me. Only 1% deducted...is she a freaking genius or something? She was so iinhumanely beautiful that it was impossible not to glance at her way when she was walking down the hallway.
She was not sexy, no she was far from sexy. She was beautiful like high-class beauty, like a Queen. She had a power over everybody with just one glance at their way. Her emerald eyes betrayed absolutely nothing, even when she's laughing with her friends (or gang, punk, whatever you call those knucklehead and emo, Sai thought). Her walking stance was full of authority and confidence, that no one would've guessed that she was going up to her teacher to confront the property damage. Yeah, she actually looked that confident, like she was proud that she destroyed half of roof in one freaking day with punches and kicks. I shuddered at the thought.
While I looked down, I never noticed the sound of the door creaking to open. I felt a prescence in front of me and immediately cut off from my thought, looking up to see Sakura, the girl I was just thinking about. She looked at me anxiously and a bit nervously...? I had no idea what the hell was going on. Sure she didn't fell nervous in front of a guy she can beat in 1 minute, right?
"Sai," God, her voice was beautiful...wait what the hell? "can we talk about this later? I have....a guest... That I need to see immediately." Her emotionless eyes flickered something, but before I could see what it was, it disappeared. I had no idea what the hell was going on, but before I could reply, she was not in front of me anymore.
I stared blankly before deciding that it was not nervousness I saw from her. No it was something totally different, and I realized that it was excitement. Why would she be excited, I asked myself.
Why indeed.

Sakura's POV
Ring
"Well, damn." I said, standing up to go to the meeting place, the school roof. "I need to go to the roof to see that bastard."
"Sakura-chan, are you sure you want to go?" Naruto asked, his blue eyes, for once, serious. I looked at him, wondering what the hell was so serious about this meeting with bastard.
"I don't get it," he said, "I don't know what he meant by asking you 'who are you?' but I don't like it, Sakura-chan. I really don't like the tone he asked you that, like you were...an alien or a monster."
"I don't like it either," I said, sighing,"but I promised I would go. Seriously, Naruto, I'm going to be fine. Nothing's going to happen. Besides, if he tries something," I said, rolling up my dress' sleeves, "I'll just beat the pulp out of him. No big deal."
"Then the deal's off?" asked Gaara, now beside Naruto. "You said you wanted a big lunch in exchange for lending us your homework. If you go now, the deal's off." Damn him. He just HAD to be smarter than Naruto.
"Yeah, Sakura-chan!" exclaimed Naruto, seeing where Gaara was going with it, "the big, juicy lunch is off if you go with the bastard!"
Damn them.
"You know what? Fine." They looked hopeful for a second. Big mistake, buddy. "Since you wanted me to eat your lunch so badly, I will delay to tomorrow. Besides, I still didn't lend you my homework." They grunted. It is absolutely way too early for you two to push me around, kids.
"Fine, but be quick," said Gaara, dragging still persistent Naruto.
"Thanks, Gaara. Owe you alot." I smiled, which resulted his cheek to color into pretty shade of pink. I'M A LIVING VIRUS!!WHAT THE HELL'S GOING TO HAPPEN TO ME!!!!! I went out of the door, pushing my virus disease for awhile.
I had an appointment.
--
--
As I walked along the hallway, I wondered why I allowed that bastard to have an appointment with me anyway. Of course, I know that I'm super kind and such a good-natured person, but allowing that bastard to meet me in the same place where we fought last time...it's bad idea, isn't it?
Cursing my stupidity, I went along the endless corridor, trying to remember where the rooftop was. I cursed, again, at my lack of care when it came to directions and such. I really need to pay closer attention to my surrounding, what if some guy just randomnly comes out and attacks you--
I instinctly grabbed the fist that came my way, twisting it. The said person who attacked me didn't yelp in pain like I expected, but twisted with the arm so the damage won't be done. When the person flipped and twisted in the mid-air, I kicked him (or her) in the gut, making him (or her) choke. Hell yeah, my kick is still powerful as ever!
He (now I know it's he for sure because the cough sounded manly) flipped in front of me, making me take few steps back to look closer. He had freakishly blue hair and was wearing the uniform for boys in Konoha Academy. I looked at him, wondering why in the seven hell he attacked me, but the realization and the memory started to flow in my mind. Blue hair...now if I'm right....It's...
No way.
"Damn it, Pink. You still have that inhumane strength of yours... damn it, have you got even stronger?"
I will not forget that voice anywhere. That mocking, velvet smooth voice that taunted me and gave me encouragement countless times. That unbelievably blue hair of his, spiked up no matter what kind of hair-product I tried. That black, coal-colored eyes that was filled with care for me. The stupid way he would smoke with his pinky raised...
"Kisame."
"Missed me, Pink?"
...
Speechless? Of course.
Awestruck? Hell yeah, what do you think?
Kisame was here. That knucklehead, loud, obnixious, unbelievable, idiotic, cold-hearted but warm at the same time, a.k.a Sharky was here. With me. In Konoha Academy.
I should've known, Naruto mentioned Kisame's name when he told me the members of the Student Council. I should've expected him to be here, in front of me, grinning like an idiot sooner or later....
Who am I kidding? No way in fucking hell that I could've known he was here. Name Kisame's not exactly the most common name in the world, but still there were possibility that it wasn't him. Of course, as much as I wanted to believe, I told myself that there would've been no way that Kisame was here in this rich school filled with bitches, sluts, and, as much as I hate to admit, nice guys. He shouldn't be here, and I didn't want to have false hope. So of course I didn't believe it.
But now that he's here with me...I am so fucking happy.
I ran towards him, registering the surprised look on his face and decide to taunt him forever about that, and hugged him tightly. He was so much taller than me, I only reached his shoulders, but I jumped and wrapped my arm around his neck, bringing him down to my size. He lifted me up easily, much to my dismay, and held me with his muscular arms, supporting my body. I buried my head on the junction between his neck and shoulder, half-crying and half-laughing. I could feel him smile at my childish antics, but who cares if I was childish? Kisame's back and that's all it matters.
Right now, I couldn't careless that I had an appointment with Sai... shit, Sai!
I whispered into his ears, "I have an appointment so I need to go but I'll cancel it right now. Just wait here, okay? Please?" I asked, pleaded almost, and Kisame chuckled.
"I'll wait."
I jumped down from his comfortable hold, missing the warmth almost instantly, and ran towards the stair to the rooftop, now my memory clear as crystal due to the sudden appearance of stranger. I ran and ran, not even out of breath (yeah, it's another jail thing) and reached to the top of the stairs almost immediately.
I didn't even register what I said to Sai, I just remember mumbling something and jumping to the stairs right back.
Kisame's back.

Kisame's POV
Damn, the look on her fact was so cute.
Fuck Itachi, fuck Sasuke, fuck everyone. I don't give a fucking shit even if I'm disobeying the rule that Mr. Fucking-Uchiha by coming into the school without permission. I don't give a fuck right now. All I care right now is the fact that I am with Sakura, the girl I dreamed non-stop for last 4 and half years. She's not with me currently to cancel the appointment she had, but I swear I held her petite form in my arms right now.
Oh how grateful I was to have her back.
I didn't expect her to jump on me, in fact, I expected her to not to remeber me at all. After all, she probably had lots in her mind. I mean, she had to, right? Being in jail for 5 years... of course she had to.
But she didn't forget about me and greeted me like a long-lost family member, or even better, a lover. And that made me feel happiness for the first time in my life. Except for the time she first told me that I was her friend.
I was a thug, a punk, junkie, a worthless human being as many people liked to call me. She was from nowhere, just appeared in front of me like an angel to make me repent for my sins or something. She was there for 6 months, and that short period of time was enough to fall for her head-over-heel (A.N/Is that right?). The knife that Uchiha had in possession now, I stole it from him when he didn't notice, (damn that bastard) was the knife she gave to me. She said it was a present from her mom, and when I heard that I couldn't possibly take it, but she insisted, telling me it was pretty much useless and wanted me to hold on to it. Sort of her momento. I didn't have anything to give her so I just gave her my old ring from my dad, the only thing anyone has ever given me except for the knife, and told her to keep it as my momento. She gladly accepted it, which surprised me because it was clearly WAY TOO big for her to put it on. But she accepted it and smiled at me in a way I've never saw her smiling. Happiness with hint of sadness.
Oh how I wished to kill every fucking person in the world that night.
Now that she's here, I will never let her go. I'll hold on to her. I don't even expect her to love me back, she deserved so much more than an idiot like me. But I'll be there for her. As long as I can.
While I was deep in thought, Sakura came back, her cheek flushed because of her running though her breath was even, and hugged me as soon as I turned around to face her. I lifted her up again, and held her, not even planning to let go this time.
It was good to have her back.
Realllllllllly cheesy, I know.
Sakura and Kisame's past will be revealed more in next chaper... damn it.
For those of you who wished that Sakura's past was revealed or maybe some action scene...sorry. Oops.
I hope this satisfied your need. I'll try to update it as soon as possible.
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!!LOVE YOU ALL!!!!!!
