1Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto

A/N Okay, not so much happiness this chapter, but its coming.

Sakura's POV

We continued to sit around my in my room for a while. After the fight over the elastics we began to talk.

"So," began Ino, "What are all of your stories as to why you are here?"

She had always been straight forward and would be angered quite easily. People say that I'm similar, but I believe I have more control over my emotions, due to my inner self who explodes, while I stay calm. It's a system that has been working for me for years. My mom had taught it to me when I was younger, saying that people think better when they aren't letting emotions blind themselves. Still most people would avoid asking the question, although it is plain that most answers may be relevant to what is occurring.

Naruto looked over at her, "My parents died. I was still a baby at the time. Kakashi said they died protecting a group of people. he never went into the specifics, but from they way he says it, they died heroes. Even if its not true, they died as heroes to me. Although I really wish I knew more about them."

I was weird hearing that come from Naruto. I haven't known him for long, but he seemed really happy. It must have taken a lot to overcome the sorrow of a history like that.

Shikamaru leaned back, "My parents died through murder. Someone had broken in, my dad went out to see what had happened. We heard a loud bang, my mom went to check on him. Before she did, she stuck me in a closet with a book that was locked. I stayed there, holding onto the book until the police found me. They took me from the closet, and I haven't returned home since then."

He said all of this without emotion, but it was there. You could see in his eyes, the pain he had gone through. Temari, who was sitting next to him, put her arm around his shoulders. Kankuro looked her, she nodded her head slightly, and he began there story. "Although Gaara, Temari and I look different, we are siblings. Our father was the mayor of Suna. He disappeared. It is clearly known that he would have been killed. There is very little hope, even though his body has yet to be found. We were sent here, because the village didn't want to keep us there."

So there were here because their own village didn't want them to say. It was beyond harsh, but it seems like there is a bigger problem there. Most people are able to deal with kids, so they must have been thinking more than the fact that they are just kids. Ino looked at Sasuke, "You said a guy named Itachi killed your entire family."

"Yeah, and I'm going to kill him for it. Then I shall revive my clan."

Sasuke seemed determined about this. "How will you recognize Itachi?" I asked, I had no clue why I did this.

"I should be able to recognize my own brother."

Tenten looked shocked, "Your own brother killed your entire family?"

"Yes, and that is why he shall die. Even if he had the strength to defeat the entire clan, I will bring him to his death."

Tenten leaned back, "Well you all know my parents were killed in an 'accident'. After everything we've found I don't believe that this was just an accident. That this place is just an orphanage,

that the 'accidents' will end. Plus I want to know what my parents have hidden from me."

I looked at her, she was right. "Plus the business they were working for. There would be times when they came back from business trips with injuries. They would be called 'accidents', being klutzy, whatever. The only problem with that, is they would never be like that at home."

Ino laughed slightly. "Like my dad breaking his leg from falling down the stairs. Even in a cast he never had problems with stairs. How could he have had a problem with only one set of stairs."

I turned my head towards Neji who was sitting next to me. "You said you and Hinata were cousins, but you came here with her after her father's death. Why?"

"My own father died to protect her dad. He took me in after that. After his death, Hanabi was taken in by other clan members. It was said that Hinata wouldn't be safe living with other members, her being the heir to the clan. She can't take over until she's eighteen. I came here as well. No one wanted to take me in. My connection to Hinata and the main family was to great for them. I still only believe that they took Hanabi in because that way they can gain some influence over her, in ca se she ever becomes clan leader, but figured Hinata and I were to strong in our own ways, and they wouldn't be able to manipulate us so easily."

He must have spent sometime thinking that over, if he had such a detailed reason as to why he and Hinata were her, yet her sister was not. That would make getting into the house harder at times. Seeing as there may be people there even if they aren't living there. We all had our own pasts, our own reason for working together. We had a bond that would keep us together until we finish. Severing a bond that went deeper than what could be visible would make life hard. We had no clue if our parents had succeed in what they were doing, or had only managed to postpone any events. I brought my head up from the floor, ready to open my mouth to mention this when I realized the looks on every ones faces.

I smiled slightly, sliding down from my desk. "Who's up for some kind of game?"

I must haven seemed crazy to them, due to the looks on their faces. Naruto jumped up, "Yeah come on. Some kind of game that will remove this weird feeling in the air."

A/N The nights not over yet. Voting time: Which over used game should the group play? Truth or Dare (leave some ideas) or spin the bottle (not very original am I?) or leave you own idea.
