Chapter 2

"C'mon Naruto, get your lazy ass up!" Jeez, we don't even need to sleep, yet he does and always acts sleepy. Shouldn't I be the one who feels sleepy all the time? My Were form is a Tiger remember? From the cat family. So here I am, at 7:00 AM, trying to wake up the monstrosity named Naruto.

"Damn it! That's it, Naruto!" This really is the last draw, I have been here for half an hour trying to wake my brother up, and now I won't have time for a quick snack before we get to school. My week is up and I need blood, otherwise I am going to shut down. Naruto will just have to give me his… too bad for him, he fed last night with Sasuke when I was training with Tsunade.

"Sasuke!!! Can you please come in here and get your brother up?" Sasuke will do it, oh yeah; he has unmentionable methods of getting this blonde haired hottie up.

"NO! I'm up, I'm up," there that got the little sucker up; just threatening with Sasuke getting him up is enough for him.

"Ok, now if you don't mind I am going to go get dressed, if anyone walks in then so help me god I will suck you dry." I like this threat because it is one of the ways to kill us, so it's not like I'm saying I will skewer you, because that wouldn't work.

"Yeah yeah, whatever," great now Sasuke is here, watching me yell at Naruto. I bet I look disgusting, just having woken up and all. But then again, he is the one who wakes me up, and then I wake up Naruto. He doesn't wake up Naruto because he thinks of it as a waste of time, obviously saying it in the nicest way possible.

"Hey! I know that the both of you have impure thoughts of me!" I love this game, it makes us lively for one thing, and it's also bound to get Naruto wound up.

"Excuse me!? Like I would," oh yeah, you're hiding that blush very well Sasuke, real good.

"Yeah, th–that… SAKURA!!!" Bwahahaha, Naruto can't even talk properly. I happen to know he does though, because he loves me, as more than sister, so it's natural for him. I know that even though Naruto loves me as more than a sister, and he knows I love Sasuke the same way, things have never changed. We still share blood, we still play fight, we still touch and play in Were form, and because we are Vampires we touch in sexual ways more often. Then because we are half Were too, we also pounce on one another, and have each others warmth when we cuddle up on full moon nights and the nights coming and going from it. In a total, we are in Were form 10 nights in a month: 5 nights coming to full moon, full moon night, and the 4 nights after.

"I'll take this as my que to leave. Hurry up bro's, we have an hour to get ready, and now that I haven't fed yet, I will be slower. So Naruto, guess what? Because you wouldn't wake up in time, you are going to be my host. I think lunch time will suffice, don't you think? Hurry up now, we have to drive all the way to the school, which, you know, is quite far away considering we live on the top of this lil old hill." And with that I take my leave.

----------------------------------------------------

Ok, so here we are, lined up ready to get on out bikes… finally, with 10 minutes to spare. We will have to have our bikes on full power and then sprint into the classroom. Oh well, our 'mother' is the headmistress, I am sure she can let us off if we blame Naruto… that always works.

So here we are; me in front of my dark pink with dark orange and midnight blue cherry blossoms motorcycle, Sasuke in front of his midnight blue with dark orange and dark pink flames motorcycle, and Naruto, in front of his dark orange with dark pink and midnight blue scratch marks motorcycle.

I know, I know, matching colours for our motorcycles, corny right? Well, Naruto kept begging us, so we finally gave in, Sasuke and me I mean. Jeez, him with his puppy dog eyes, how can I not give in?

Anyway, because we Vampires can't feel the heat and because our Were forms have a thick coat, we no longer feel the cold or the heat, and because of that we can were normal t-shirts and shorts, or just things made for the summer, all year round. That is one of the advantages of being bitten because my wardrobe is mostly filled with sexy clothes, and winter clothes just don't have that appeal.

-----------------------------------------------------

Ok, I am standing here in front of my bike next to Sasuke in a red off the shoulder shirt, with a red diamond shaped ruby resting on the material in between the chest area, with about an inch of skin showing between shirt and skirt. In that gap my belly button shows with a ruby heart ring pierced to it. My skirt is a pleated light blue one, with a black sash across the top, kind of like a belt, but looser. On my feet I am wearing knee high dark purple high heeled boots. A red thick headband sits in my hair. The jewellery that I am wearing is plain, nothing too out there, just thick golden hoops in my ears and another golden hoop at the top of my right ear. They are my only piercings; a single piercing in my ears plus only one piercing in the top cartilage of my right ear, and of course my belly button piercing.

A golden armlet rests near my shoulder on my arm; it's a thin one in the shape of a swirl, the band of it holding it in place while the swirl continues down the arm to rest close to the elbow, about 5 centimetres away from the joint.

My gold (has to be because silver burns us) locket with the initials S, S and N engraved on the front rests around my neck; I wear it everywhere and with everything. The letters are curled together, all three of them joint with one another. I was given it for my sixteen birthday, you know 'Sweet Sixteen', by both Sasuke and Naruto. They had been saving all year; they had to to afford it. This was when all three of us were on our own, I have cherished it since then, wearing it everywhere, with everything and at all times no matter what. Nothing could make me take it off. Inside there is a picture of all three of us, me with my arm looped with each of theirs. We had captured one of the times when Sasuke smiled, not smirked. On the other side, the side that opens, there is a picture of me with Tsunade and Jiriaya; them behind me with their arms around me. I had recently added that one; we had taken it only a month ago, when we were at the park.

And yes, Tsunade was in sunlight. I have already told you to not believe all the legends. Any vampire can go out into sunlight, nothing prevents them. It's just that they prefer to stay nocturnal. Only pure-blooded Vampires can truly resist the sunlight. Bitten Vampires get incredibly sleepy when they are in the sun, for they still have their human side, and that human side craves sleep. They cannot sleep in the dark because their Vampire side will not let them, so they have to sleep during the day; otherwise it would be like humans not sleeping for day's straight.

-------------------------------------------------

So I have explained what I am wearing on this beautiful day, seriously it is, the sun is shining and everything, I now need to explain what Naruto and Sasuke are wearing.

Sasuke's just in a pair of ripped black jeans and a white singlet, a dark blue bikers' jacket finishing the outfit. On his feet, he just wears an old pair of black sneakers.

Ok, now for Naruto. He is wearing brown leather pants, an unseen white singlet and an orange woolly jumper (I told you he was weird).

So yeah, our tattoos, the ones that can be seen at least, make themselves known by their designated colours.

My red and green rose is seen above my shirt, my butterfly only half seen on my back because of my shirt obscuring it, and my tiger is seen in the gap between my shirt and skirt.

Naruto's tattoos are completely hidden from sight because of the clothing he is wearing.

And Sasuke's, Sasuke's tattoos are all hidden but the dragon's head, which is seen on his neck.

-------------------------------------------------

We make it to the school 5 minutes before the bell. We raced on the way here, obviously breaking at least 3 road rules, and of course I won, just in the lead with Sasuke and Naruto both coming in second… but of course they had to fight over who actually did come first. That was until I, of course, screamed at them,

"FOR GOD'S SAKE, IT WAS A DRAW FOR YOU TWO!" And that of course, quietened them down while I did my victory twirl and sung,

"I won, hell yeah, I won… which is obvious because I am a better motorcycle drive than the both of you," which is true. Naruto and Sasuke had nothing to say as they turned their glares on me.

"Ohhhhh, I am soooo scared." I love to mock them, "c'mon guys, we need to get to class before the pervert."

"Not that it's hard because he is always like 10 to 20 minutes late anyway," yes, Naruto is right (even though he shouldn't mutter), he is always late, but,

"He may be late Naruto, but Anko always takes the roll because Kakashi is always late." Us three call the teachers by their first names just because we can. Not meaning disrespect, but we are better than them, and besides, I don't like calling people 'Miss' and 'Mr' and 'Mrs'. So whereas people call him Mr Kakashi, we just call him Kakashi, and they call her Miss Anko, we call her Anko. Just like Headmistress/Principal Tsunade being Tsunade to us, and Mr Jiriaya just being Jiriaya to us. Of course, no one knows that we live with Tsunade and Jiriaya, if they did people would get suspicious and want to investigate and we can't let that happen. So when people do get suspicious of Naruto, Sasuke and I we just scare them off. Either by the rumours of our house being haunted or by us scaring them in our Were forms when they try to pay us a visit. It really is fun for me to roar, Naruto to scratch and Sasuke to howl. Nearly all of them wet their pants when they see me and Sasuke, and then they start to cry when Naruto attacks. Ahhh, good times.

Oh jeez, while I was off in dream land I was apparently walking to our home room class with Kakashi, and now we are standing in front of an angry Anko. It seems that we were '1 minute late'. Pfft! Cry me a river, see if I care… and apparently Anko does care that we were ONE MINUTE FRICKEN' LATE!!

"Look, I don't care that the principal likes you, not that I know why because you look like gangsters with your tattoos and indecent clothing, I don't like either of you three. You're late; therefore you have to go to de–"

"That's enough Anko; they have a good reason to be late. They were talking to me in my office," thank god for Tsunade, I didn't think that woman would have ever stopped yattering.

"Oh… well, fine, if they have a good reason. Sit down already." Ah, she still likes to act like she is in charge, even though I am more in charge than she is.

--------------------------------------------------------

I love walking across the classroom towards our designated seats at the back. Ok, they aren't really our chosen seats, but everyone knows that we like to sit together and we like to sit at the back, so in the end with every class we have we always have three seats spare. Our peers are frightened of us because we don't eat at lunch (except Naruto, who always eats Ramen cause he like the flavour), we are always together, we give off a different, even dangerous, aura and because we hardly talk in class except to one another. Our clothes, tattoos and disrespect to the teachers also add to out bad-guy reputation I guess.

Anyway, as soon as we enter a room or walk past them, our classmates always quieten down and just watch us. Haven't their parents even told them that it's rude to stare? Oh well, I love the attention; all the guys drooling, the girls icy stares, and I know that Naruto loves the girl's attention too even though he knows he will never actually be with one of them. He just likes the attention, whereas Sasuke hates it. He hates fangirls and is constantly beating up jealous boyfriends. Tsk tsk tsk; I always have to jump in and save them before they die of blood loss or brain damage.

Its kind of a routine, I walk down first with guys staring at me with love struck eyes, always wanting to look down my top, look up my skirt, or get down my pants, if you know what I mean. So I always go first and any guy who tries to for any of those things ends up with a broken nose by either Naruto, Sasuke or both of them.

And today wasn't any different as I ambled down the aisle towards our seats. I was just going past this guy called 'Sai' when I felt a hand on my thigh, but before I could punch him Naruto had his arm, the one that was touching me, in a vice like grip and Sasuke had his hand clenching his neck slightly.

"Don't you dare lay a finger on her," I heard Naruto say has his grip tightened to a point of bruising.

"We will kill you the next time you do," jeez Sasuke, what a great way to draw attention to yourself again. Death threats all the way.

"Unhand him at once Uzumaki, Uchiha." Now Anko is getting into the spirit of things, but alas, nothing she can do will stop them from killing him. Only I have the ability to stop them from doing anything. I am the light of their lives as to say, I am the glue in 'The Three'. At least that's what Tsunade said she noticed, but whatever, all I know is that they listen to me just like I listen to them.

"Its ok guys, you can let him go. He is just a vulgar male who touches women who he knows doesn't like to be touched by the likes of him," I soothingly say this into their ears as I wrap my hands around both Sasuke's arm and Naruto's arm, the ones that are holding the jerk, Sai, captive.

"Are you sure Sakura?" Naruto asks this even with his face full of hatred towards Sai and his arm tightening even more to the point of near break. Sasuke's hand still hasn't moved from its' spot around his neck either.

"Yes, just let him go. He'll get what he deserves when the time comes." I whisper the last part so that only Naruto and Sasuke can hear.

"Fine," that's a good boy Naruto.

"Hn," ahh, I have loving boys.

"Just go sit down, all three of you. I don't know how Kakashi stands you three. I am glad I only have one of you for sport and not all three of you for homeroom and maths too. I think I would go nuts," yeah yeah Anko, you love us really.

"But then who would put excitement in your life Anko?" I just have to ask this question as I sit down in between Naruto and Sasuke.

"Trust me, I would love it if I didn't have you three in my life. You are bordering on the line of over-excitement and deadly excitement." Are they even words?

-----------------------------------------------

"Sorry I'm late class, I was helping an old lady cr–"

"Yeah yeah, whatever Kakashi, it's getting old don't you think," this is also a daily routine, at least it is for 5 days a week, Kakashi coming in and making an excuse for being late and Naruto telling him off for it.

Kakashi is one of the people who doesn't either hate us or is scared of us. He is one of the only people we have full conversations with. In the other classes we just talk when spoken to.

"Naruto, how many times have I told you not to call me Kakashi?"

"Too many to keep track of," which is true, I've lost track of how many times our teachers have asked us to not call them by their first names, but we do anyway.

"Ok class we have a new student today," whoa, hold up. New student? Oh jeez, is it a male or female? Male would mean trouble for me and female would mean trouble for Sasuke and Naruto. I hope it's not a male… but, no, god is not on my side today, not that he ever is anyway, it's a boy… and oh my god, is he weird looking.

Bushy eyebrows, green jumpsuit, bowl cut for hair and… are they weights on his arms and legs?

"He looks like a miniature of Gai," Naruto whispers in my ear as the bushy browed kid looks my way, his face immediately changing into one of pure joy.

"Oh no, another admirer." I can't help but feel bummed. This guy isn't even cute, not that he's ugly either, he's just not my cup of tea.

"I thought you enjoyed the attention," that was Sasuke making his oh so observant comment.

"Oh my god, he talks", and that was Naruto with his stupid comments.

"Oh no, he is practically skipping this way. What do I do?" And that was me having a panic attack while the green clothed bushy browed boy skipped over to me.

"Meh, you're on your own here Sak." Damn you Naruto, both he and Sasuke are chuckling at me while here I am having a silent panic attack.

"Why, my eyes must be deceiving me, I have never seen such a blossomed Cherry Blossom." Oh… my… lord, he's a fricken' poet as well?

"Never heard that one before," I hear Sasuke mutter as the green thing in front of me grabs my arm and starts to kiss it.

"Err… that's enough." I don't know what to say, no one has ever dared to do this to me before. Everyone's too scared of me aura and of Sasuke and Naruto too. But this guy, good lord I think his love for me (not sounding stuck up here) blinds him of my different aura and of Sasuke and Naruto.

"My name is Lee, Rock Lee, what might your name be my little Cherry Blossom?" Oh dear lord, I think this guy is on drugs… and wait a minute I think those teeth are fake, no one can have our teeth that shiny. Not even we Vampires have our teeth that shiny.

"Sakura, Haruno Sakura. And stop calling me 'your little Cherry Blossom'. Do you even know who I am? Who we are?" as I said 'we' my hands drifted to Naruto's way and Sasuke's. Naruto acknowledged him with a,

"How's it goin' bushy brows?" Which earned him a glare from the said person, and Sasuke acknowledged him with a,

"Hn." So typical of him; Lee just stared at him when he said that. Then he looked at me with a serious face and said,

"Are you involved with either of these obnoxious men?" Which earned him a glare from both Naruto and Sasuke, and a laugh from me.

"No, they're my brothers." I was still laughing as Lee stood up and towered over me before saying,

"I promise you Sakura Haruno, that even if it is the last thing I do, I will win your heart." That last bit earned him a laugh from everyone in the room, even Kakashi and when Lee looked around shocked and asked,

"What?" Only Temari stopped laughing hard enough to answer him,

"Join the cue. Almost every guy in this room is after her, but no one has ever dared approach her but you. Can't you see their auras? They are different to ours."

"Pfft! I do not care about that. She is beautiful and full for youth. She deserves the best of the best."

"And you think that's you?" Now Sai is getting into this too, but he has a fierce glare on his face and has his fist pulled back ready to punch him.

"HEY! Hold it right there gentlemen. You can discuss this later if you would like, but it will still get you no where." Jeez, I hope they finally settle down so I can have some peace and quiet.

"Well said Sakura. Sit down, yes, the both of you. I have a class to run here,"

"Yeah right Kakashi, you just sit there and read your porn books," good ole Naruto, always knows what to say to piss off the teachers. Why do I even hang around with him??
