Hey people of Fanfiction, its TwilightFireWolf, here with chapter 9 of "Old Friends New Ties"! Wait is there a band really called "Minute To The Moon" ?
Oh yea the song from the last chapter is "Into The Night" by: Eyes Set To Kill.
Declaimer: I Do Not Own Naruto, I only own the Oc's and the name "Minute To The Moon" I think xD
*~ School Monday Morning/Sakura POV~*
"Attention bands here at Konoha High School, try outs for the Halloween Dance, it will take place today right after school! The judges will be Anko, Tobi, Itachi Uchiha," Cue fan girl scream and Sasuke's dark aura " and Gai. With both tennis coaches being judges there will be no practice today. Everyone is invited to watch the try outs." Tsunade said into the PA system.
It's second period, Math with both Naruto and Uchiha, I look at both at them, and they know what im thinking. I couldn't help but smile. We so have this…
*~Time skip 6th Music~*
"OKAY STUDENTS SINCE THERE IS A TRY OUT TO TODAY EVERYONE CAN DO WHAT EVER YOU WANT JUST DON'T BREAK ANYTHING." Tobi said.
I have Music with Uchiha, well I have every single class with him, and with Naruto, I only have him Math and Music.
"Uchiha, Naruto, come on we gotta pick a song to play at the try-outs." I said looking through my 'SONGS!' folder, I've written a lot of songs, mainly rock some country and soft rock, even some pop, but not a lot of those.
"Can I see those Sakura-chan?" Naruto asked trying to get my folder.
I gave him the folder, I didn't like any of my songs.
"Hey here's a song we can play.." Naruto said taking out a sheet from the folder.
I looked at it, 'Hero', was the song he took out. I wrote that song around the time my dad die and my 'mother' was dating the guy she's with now. I felt so alone, no one was there for me, no one cared. I still need a hero, and I still haven't found him yet.
"This is a pretty good song Pinky." Sasuke said taking a look at it.
"Thanks."
"Sakura-chan how does the song go?" Naruto asked giving the guitar to me.
I started to play, but I stopped after a few seconds, I couldn't handle this song. To many memories came with it. Pain, tears, and loneliness came with that song.
"Sakura-chan are you okay?" Naruto asked.
"Y-yea I'm okay, its just the song, it gets to me." I said trying to hold back the tears that threatened to fall.
Sasuke didn't do anything, he just took the song from Naruto's hands and said "We're not doing this song." While putting it back into the folder trying to find another song to sing for the try outs.
"Uchiha…"
"How about this one?" Uchiha said taking out another song from the folder.
I look at it, this song really didn't have any memories for me. Actually every time I would play this song I would feel batter.
"One-X." I said looking at the song. "This is a solo Uchiha and I think you should sing it. When I would play it, it seemed wrong, so maybe if you sing it, it would sound better." I said giving the lyric sheet to him. "Naruto and myself can sing back up vocals."
"Hah I've never really heard Teme sing, all I hear is screaming from the scream-o songs he has on his I-touch!" Naruto yelled.
"Well this will be a first for the both of us." I said trying to remember how the song went. "Well it starts off with drums, slow not a fast tempo. Then I come in with the guitar, Sasuke starts to sing." I said trying to figure out how we were gonna come into the song.
"Hn." Uchiha grunted.
"Anyways, Naruto your drumming is gonna go kinda like this…" I said taking two pencils and slowly hitting them against the table. "Then…" I said putting down the pencils, and getting the guitar. " I start to play…"
*~Time Skip After School~*
"Uchiha I'll meet you and Naruto at the auditorium I gotta leave some stuff in my locker." I said walking off to my locker.
"Hm, sure. Don't be late Pinky." Uchiha said walking to the auditorium.
The school was silent, you could hear a pen drop from the other side of the school. Once I got to my locker it felt like if someone was there with me, and not in the guardian angel kind of way. I close my locker to find a guy who looks kinda like Uchiha, but this boy way paler then him.
"Hey Ugly, I heard your songs are some of the best." He said cornering me into my locker.
"So what if they are?"
"Imma need one of them to win the competition. So me and my band can play at the Halloween Dance." He said trying to get my Songs folder.
"How about fuck off…" I said walking off.
"No. How about you give me a song and no one gets hurt." He said grabbing my neck and holding me up onto the lockers.
I was starting to lose my breath, I couldn't breath. Everything started to get fuzzy, the next thing I knew, I was on the floor my phone is ringing.
I get the phone and answer it.
"Uh, hello?" I asked trying to stand back up and gather my things.
"Sakura-chan where are you the try outs have already started were on in four minutes!" Naruto yelled into the phone.
"I-im on my way." I said running down the empty halls toward the auditorium.
I run into the auditorium, going past bands, and solos.
"Sakura- chan there you are! Where were you?" Naruto yelled.
"I ran into a problem." I said getting the guitar Uchiha provided me with.
"What problem?" Naruto asked.
"The next band that will be playing is…" Tsunade said opening the envelop, "'Hellhounds'! and they will be playing the song 'Hero' written by the lead singer of the band Sai!" Tsunade said getting off stage.
"He was the problem…" I said glaring at the guy who I confronted in the hallway.
"Hey guys, I hope you enjoy the song I wrote." Sai said looking at me.
They started to play the song that would bring back bad memories, every time I would play it.
"Sakura-chan isn't that your song?" Naruto asked me looking at Sai with a glare that would put her own to shame.
"Yea it is…" I said looking down at the guitar in shame.
Before I knew it they were done with the song.
"That was an amazing song! Anyways the next group that will be playing is 'Minute To The Moon'! They will be singing the song 'One-X' written by their guitarist, and vocalist, Sakura Haruno!"
"Come on guys lets beat there asses to the ground." I said darkly going up onto the stage.
Naruto went to the drum set and began to play softly. I softly started to play the guitar

Do you think about
Everything you've been through
You never thought you'd be so depressed
Are you wondering
If its life or death
Do you think that there's no one like you
We are

We are the ones'
We get knocked down
We get back up and stand above the crowd
We are one
We are the ones
We get knocked down
We get back up and stand above the crowd

It seemed as if Uchiha was really getting into the song…
The life I think about
Is so much better than this
I never thought I'd be stuck in this mess
I'm sick of wondering
Is it life or death
I need to figure out who's behind you
We are

We get knocked down
We get back up and stand above the crowd
We are one
We are the ones
We get knocked down
We get back up and stand above the crowd

I never thought I'd be stuck in this mess
I'm sick of wondering
Is it life or death?
We are the ones
We get knocked down
We get back up and stand above the crowd
We are one
We are the ones
We get knocked down
We get back up and stand above the crowd

Uchiha finally let go of the mic after he was clutching it like if his life depended on it. It was as if everything was moving in slow-mo. The crowd was going crazy! We had won this contest…
"So the winners are…"
