*Shikamaru and sasuke sweat drop*:As she was saying... On with the story.


'mommy?' little Sakura said looking up at her mom from her bed. Sakura's mom peeled her eyes away from the door that separated them and the drunken man in the room.

"Shhh darling we must stay quiet…" her mother said in a hushed tone.

'Crash' Sakura winced as she heard the crash and footsteps get closer to the room

"mom" she whispered in a more silent tone "can you hum 'the lullaby' to me "She mother looks at her and gives her a small smile 'so innocent' she thinks to herself before the door opens with a loud bang. As she looks at the man she no longer knows, she gets up and speaks…

"Hrioshi, please stop this just … go lay down" and with that the said man lifts his hand and swings at her.

"Mommy" Sakura screams out loud while running to her mom, but failing at her father grabs her and pins her to the wall with one hand and in the other, his pocket knife. "Daddy? Daddy, w-what are you d-doing?" She asks as he man lowers the knife to her abdomen.

"Ahhhhh"

I sit up right panting hard after the nightmare. Looking around my new room I look around to see everything the way I left it last night, for the exception of the light pink walls due to the curtains. Finally deciding to get up I walk toward the window and open the curtains to let some sunlight into my room she then moves to the next window and once again opening the curtains. Looking through the window she notices a window across from her, but decides to think nothing of it and walks downstairs to the kitchen.

"Well no point in looking for it" I say looking up to see a wide doorless frame leading to the kitchen. The kitchen looks like something that'll be out of a cooking show minus the door that Sakura assumes to lead to the back yard. Next to the door is a silver fridge that as kakashi said 'is supplied with food for the week'. On the far end of the fridge is a pantry and on both sides of the pantry are Granite counters. What really caught my attention though was not the kitchen island in the dead center of the room, but what was on top of it. Laying down on the island was a familiar looking case.

"Is that…" I say before running to the island and opening the case to see, "my guitar!" I pull out before plucking a few strings "works perfectly". On the side of the guitar falls a piece of paper which I grab before it hits the floor. Noticing Kakashi's handwriting I start reading:

Sakura,

I forgot to give this to you but you were already asleep and I didn't want to disturb you so I left it here, but Knowing you I'm surprised this wasn't the first thing you grabbed. Oh well, I decided to go back to your last house after you left to see look around, you know to make sure you guys didn't leave anything that could possibly show where you guys went. Anyways I saw this lying on your old bed and decided to take it. You can thank me later.

-Kakashi

I shake my head mentally thanking him 'I really do owe him for this one'

'No kidding can you imagine life without music' Her inner replied

'I hate when you pull that. where were you in the car, I was dead bored and needed someone to talk to'

'umm hey, how about we take that to your room and play'

'Good idea!' I reply to my inner before grabbing the guitar by the neck and the case in my other hand. Once I do I run up stair to my room, hunger forgotten.

I close my door silently thanking kami for my mom's room being on the other side of the hall. I set the case down on the floor next to one of the windows and plop myself on the bed.

"What to play. What to play…. Oh I Know" I say preparing myself before play one of the many songs I heard on the radio during the ride.

You were in college working part time waiting tables,

Left the small town, never looked back

I was a flight risk, with a fear falling

Wondering why we bother with love, if it never last

I say can you believe it,

The curtains on the window across form Sakura start to move. Not that she notices it.

As we're lying on the couch,

The moment I can see it

Yes, yes I can see it now

Do you remember we were sitting there by the water

You put your arm around me for the first time

You made a rebel o-

"Hey!"

I stop playing hearing a noise across from me. Looking up I see a boy about my age with dark onyx eyes and messy navy-blue hair.

Deciding to have a little fun I reply back in a playful tone, "Heeeeeyyy"

"No, I mean, hey! People are trying to sleep."

"Oh I'm sorry I guess I didn't get the memo" I reply sarcastically 'seriously I know I mean come on its Saturday who wouldn't want to sleep in'.

'That would be you. In case you haven't noticed you're the one up.'

'Oh. Oh, that's right.' The guy speaks up knocking myself away from my thoughts.

"Yeah well now you know" he says before turning around

"Wait" he stops and looks at me once again "are, are you going back to sleep?"

"Hn. Why do you ask?" he says more as a command.

"umm…" I pick up my guitar and refer to it, "I'm still gonna play."

He rolls his eyes before saying "Guess not." And with that he moves out of my line of vision. I listen to his footsteps then hearing his door open and finally closing, I start up the song where I left off

You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter

You are the best thing that's ever been mine

Flash forward and we' taking on the world together

And there's a drawer with my things at your place

You learn all my secrets and you figure out why I'm guarded

You say we'll never make my parents' mistakes

But we got bills to pay-

"Don't you mean I have bills to pay?"I look to my door to see her mom standing there.

'Of course, More distractions'

"This is a little early even for you"

"I know, I just... I had a bad dream and..." I trail off hoping she;ll catch the hint that I really, don't want to talk about it.

"Okay, how about you get dress and... I don't know look around town, get to know the place, make some friends." she replies not as a suggestion but as a 'Do-as-I-say-or-else' kinda way.

I sigh inwardly before getting up off my bed, "Yeah I could do that" She gives me a quick smile before leaving my room to get ready.

Finally walking out of my 'new' house, with my guitar on my back and a couple of bills- curtsey of kakashi- I make my way towards town. While walking around I see a tiny cafe and decide to head there for a milkshake.

"Hello, what can I get you"

"A vanilla milkshake please... oh and a chocolate chip cookie!" I reply

"commin' right out"the cashier replies before leaving and coming back with the delightful drink

"thanks" I say before paying and walking out, as I'm walking I feel my phone vibrating. I take it out to send a reply when suddenly.

"Oof" I'm on the ground .

"Hey watch where your going" I look up to see aqua blue eyes.

"Sorry I ummm…"

"Ahhh It's okay" I sweat drop, talk about a short tension span "Anyways , come with me" the blonde says before reaching out her hand for me to take. I take and she drags me off along with her.

"Wait… I don't even know you. How do I know your not taking me just to get me killed."

'killed really' my inner pops out

'well it is a possibility'

"killed really?"

' See!'

'shut up' and with that shes gone Finally.

"Why would I. Anyways , I'm Ino and you?" the said girl says knocking me out of trance

"Sakura"

"Nice to meet you know follow me", and with that she leads me off to my doom… just kidding,… for now.

Liz:Course I can, by the way have you seen sak-
