I am SO sorry that I haven't up dated sooner!! I couldn't figure out a good way to write Tsunade and I still think she sounds ooc so any comments will be greatly appreciated!
Chapter Two
In Tsunades office...
"You failed the mission-"
"There were more shinobi than you prepared us for." Sasuke reminded Tsunade.
"My apprentice lost her memory-"
"Thats me, right?" Sakuraasked.
"Yes, anyway and YOU JUST WALTZ IN HERE EXPECT EVERYTHING TO BE FINE?!!" she finished in a roar.
Sakura and Ino cowered behindSasuke, who just stood there and Shikamaru who appeared to have just woken up. They had in fact just walked in and given her the information about the mission. Though as to expecting every thing to be fine...well lets just say that there was a very heated discussion on who would tell Tsunade that ended only when Sauke turned on his Sharingon(A/N: is that correct?) And Ino told Shikamaru that because he was a Chuunin he should do it. And of course Shikamaru being too lazy too argue presented an abbreviated report on the disastrous mission. Unbeknownst to Ino, Shikamaru had other reasons for agreeing too...
"Maybe I should just go home." Sakura squeaked.
"Do you even know where home is?" The blonde Hokage asked, and upon seeing Sakura's befuddled(isn't that a great word) face she answered herself "No you don't. But that doesn't matter anyway, you're parents are on a mission and won't be back for another week."
"Don't you have a medicine to cure her?" Ino asked rather timidly, she seemed to be recollecting her last experience with Tsunade.
"Unfortunately not, amnesia isn't some thing you can cure with a medicine. And besides her parents aren't here to give me permission to give Sakura any medication anyway." She groaned.
"Ohh... so then I won't ever get my memories back?" Sakura questioned.
"Not necessarily, something- a picture, a person, or even a dream- may jog your memory. Or perhaps one day you'll wake up and remember every thing, but right now you have no memory so I want you Sasuke to show Sakura around and introduce her to friends or rivals untill her parents come home."
Sasuke nodded silently but on the inside he groaned. Stuck with Sakura for a week?!! How did anyone expect him to survive for a week with Sakura getting in his way, he probably wouldn't even be able to train. Sighing(also inwardly) he came to terms with the fact that this was his fault any way and besides the pink haired kunoichi didn't really seem to be that interested in him. This was a new thing for Sasuke, for a girl not to be head over heels for him- with a pang Sasuke realized he wasn't sure he liked that at all.
Outside the Hokages building...
Together the three genin decided to head over to Ino's house(Shikamaru couldn't be bothered to give his opinion on where they should go), as it had already been decided that Sakura would stay there for the week. Sasuke would meet her at team sevens meeting spot -the bridge- every morning at nine and spend the day with her, leading Sakura around and trying to jog her memory. At around six she would go back to Ino's house and then the next morning the routine would begin again.
Shikamaru slipped away when they neared Ino's house. Better to get yelled at tomorrow for leaving than to stay and "help" Sakura regain her memory. He didn't even really know her, in fact Shikamaru couldn't recall a time when he had even talked to her. Not to say that he hadn't, he just didn't remember if he had.
"Da-ad! I'm home! And Sakura, Sasuke, and Shikamaru are here too!" Ino called to her father.
"Alright I'm busy now but I'll be down soon."
"Hey um, Ino? The lazy boy left." Sakura told her unable to remember Shikamaru's name, after all he had never really told her what it was.
"Ooooh he is going to...arg why can't he ever..." Ino muttered to herself then more loudly she said "Sakura my room is all the way at the end of the hallway on your left. You can go change into some of my clothes if you want. yours are kind of dirty. I'll be there in a minute let me just get some ice, that bump on your head is still pretty big..." Ino said in an obvious attempt to be friendly. Sakura didn't seem to notice and turned to go.
Ino went into the kitchen and just stood in front of the fridge(do they have refrigerators?) Her hand on the handle and her eyes glazed. Sasuke was going to ask her what was wrong with her when they both heard a scream. Ino snapped her head up and Sasuke took off in the direction of the scream- Ino's room.
He was about to burst in when Ino grabbed his arm.
"She might not be dressed let me go first."
When she had disappeared into the room Sasuke put a hand to his fore head. What was wrong with him? Why hadn't he assessed the situation and made a plan instead?
"It's all right Sasuke. She's fine! You can come in."
Sasuke walked in the door only to be met with Sakura's screech.
"Fine?! I most certainly am NOT fine! Look at my hair! What is wrong with me? Am I so insecure with my self that I have to dye my hair PINK!" She was currently sitting on Ino's bed pulling on her hair. Disgusted Sasuke turned to leave, this was the Sakura that he knew. Weak, whining Sakura. Why had he thought that the amnesia might make her less annoying and more likeable?
"Hey sakura your hair is natually pink, so stop pulling on it." Ino commanded then walked over to the door and let Sasuke out calling cheerily "See you tommorow Sasuke!"
Yes tomorrow. Sasuke really did sigh out loud this time. He was dreading taking her out more than ever now. And on top of that he would have to take her to meet Naruto and Kakashi. What in tha world would she think of her annoying team mate and perverted teacher? Then Sasuke remembered that he was annoyed by Sakura- but for the life of him he couldn't figure out why.
Guys I am sooo sorry that this chapter was so delayed and on top of that really short, but I have major writers block! I promise though that I'll make the next chappie super long! Which brings me back to the writers block- who should Sasuke take Sakura to meet(besides Kakashi and Naruto) and what should he take her to do? I need ideas if you guys want the next chapter longer. So now I won't take up ant more of your time but to ask you to review!!
