It was finally morning and Sakura was the first to wake up. She was so excited that today was the day for

her first day of Konoha Academy. She went to Gaara's room and tried to wake him up. Nothing worked. So

she went downstairs to the kitchen and grabbed a bottle of ketchup. "This is going to be hilarious!" She

whispered. Sakura went inside his room again and squeezed the bottle of ketchup on Gaara's face.

"Aaaaaaaahhhhhhh!" He yelled. Sakura began laughing. "That was so funny! You should've seen your

face!" Gaara glared at his sister. He was wiping the ketchup off of his face. "What the heck? Why did you

do that?" Sakura stopped laughing. "You wouldn't wake up, so I decided to take drastic measures." Gaara

ran to the bathroom. "You are so lucky that I'm not allowed to chase you! Or I would've made you pay!"

He yelled from the bathroom. Sakura went back to her room to change. Sonomi, Temari, and Kankuro

weren't home because they went to do some shopping. Sakura went to the kitchen and made some

breakfast. Gaara came out of the bathroom. He just finished showering. He went back to his room and

changed. "Gaara! Breakfast!" Sakura yelled from the kitchen. Gaara went to the kitchen for breakfast. He

sat down at the table. Sakura sat down too after putting the food on the table. "So today you are going to

the academy." Gaara said Sakura nodded. Gaara sighed. "But do you have to sleep there? Why can't you

just go there for classes and come back home?" Sakura took a sip of her orange juice. "Because the school

is far away and I want to sleep there." Gaara rolled his eyes. "Ok…but remember I'll know when you need

my help." Sakura playfully punched him. "I'll remember." After breakfast was over they decided to spend

the rest of their time to watch some television. "Sakura, pass me the remote." Gaara told his sister. Sakura

passed him the remote. Not long after Sonomi, Temari, and Kankuro came home carrying bags of

groceries. "We're home from shopping." Kankuro said. "And I don't care." Gaara said not leaving eyes

from the television screen. Sakura got up from the couch and helped her mom with groceries. "It's almost

time for me to leave soon, mom." Sakura said looking at the clock that read 4:27. Sonomi looked at the

clock too and widened her eyes. "You're right! We should get going now!" Sonomi quickly got her car

keys and ran out the door. "Come on kids!" She yelled. Sakura went upstairs quick and grabbed her bags.

She then went out the door to the car. Gaara, Temari, and Kankuro followed behind. When they got into the

car Sonomi started driving very fast. "What the hell, mom! Start driving slower before we get in a car

accident!" Temari yelled holding onto Kankuro's shoulder. Kankuro looked like he was going to barf.

Sakura and Gaara were frozen. Sonomi slowed down. "Sorry, I guess I was just worried that Sakura might be late." She drove slower the whole way there. "Maybe mom had too much sugar this morning." Sakura whispered in Gaara's ear. He stifled a laugh. The whole car ride was silent.

When Sakura saw a huge school building she immediately knew that they were at Konoha Academy.

Sonomi parked the car in the parking lot. Sakura got out of the car and took out her bags. "We're finally

here." Sonomi said. "Do you guys want to come into the school with me?" Sakura asked. Temari shook her

head. Kankuro was busy sleeping. Gaara sweat dropped. "I'll come with you." He said getting out of the

car. Temari got out of the car too dragging out sleeping Kankuro with her. "Bye, Sakura! Be sure to visit on

the weekend!" She said hugging Sakura. "Thanks Temari." Kankuro was still sleeping. "What should we

do with him?" Sakura asked looking at him. Temari laughed evilly. She took out some lipstick and put it on

him. Sakura giggled. "That should do it." Sonomi was waiting. "Come on, Sakura!" Gaara was looking at

the school. Sakura hugged Temari one last time and went inside the school along with Gaara and Sonomi.

There were many students passing by. Sonomi was trying to find the office. When they found it they went

inside. "Hello, how may I help you?" The woman at the front desk asked. "Hi, I'm here to register my

daughter, Sakura Haruno, into the school." Sonomi said. The woman typed Sakura's name onto the

computer. "Oh yes. Sakura Haruno is the new student we have been expecting." The woman smiled at

Sakura. Sakura smiled back. The woman got up from her seat. "Please follow me. My name is Shizune by

the way." Shizune got some papers out of a shelf including an id card and key. "This Sakura's schedule, her

room key, and an identification card so teachers would know who she is and she registered into the school.

Shizune gave it to Sonomi. Sakura bowed to Shizune. "Thank you." Shizune bowed back. They soon left.

Sonomi and Gaara were saying good- bye to Sakura. "Good-bye sweetie. I'll miss you. Be careful not to do

any sports or anything to make you tired and if you ever feel sick tell a teacher." Sakura nodded. Gaara

hugged his sister. "I'll miss ya, sis. Take good care of your self and tell me when someone hurts. I'll be

here in a flash to beat them up. And remember that telepathy stuff I told you." Sakura hugged him back. "I

will." Then they left. Sakura looked at her schedule:

Period 4. Art- Jaraiya

Period 5. Science- Gai

Sakura then looked at her dorm room number. It was 223. Sakura went to the second floor for her room.

When she got there she used her new key to open. When she got inside she saw a girl with short purple

hair and pearl eyes sitting on a bed. "Hi, I'm your new room mate." Sakura said getting the girls' attention.

"Hi, I'm Hinata Hyuga. You must be Sakura Haruno." Hinata said as she was helping Sakura with her

bags. "Yeah that's me." Hinata helped Sakura pack her stuff away. "So you're new here. The principal told

me that I was going to have a new room mate since I never had one before." Sakura smiled at her. "Thanks

for helping me." Hinata smiled back. Both girls sat down on Sakura's new bed. "Tell me about your self,

Hinata." Sakura said. Hinata sat up. "Well, first of all I am kind of shy. I have a cousin whose name is Neji

and he goes to this school too. We live in the same house and we are rich too." Hinata said hoping that

Sakura won't treat her different because she is rich but Sakura kept on smiling. "That's nice. To tell you the

truth, I'm not rich. No offense, but I used to think that all rich kids were spoiled brats. But you're not, so I

guess I was wrong." Sakura stopped smiling. Hinata noticed. "It's ok; a lot of people think that." Sakura

had her smile again. "Let me tell you about my self too. I have a mom and dad but they are divorced. So

my dad lives in California. He remarried, so I have a new step mom, 2 step sisters, and two stepbrothers.

My mom isn't remarried though. I live with my mom here I Japan along with my big sister, big brother, and

twin brother who is older than me by 10 minutes. Another thing is that I'm as people call it a genius which

is how I got accepted here." Sakura took a deep breath. Hinata's eyes widened. "Wow…you sure have a

big family. I also can't believe you are actually that smart." Sakura nodded. Hinata looked at the clock.

"We have some time left, do you want me to show you around the school?" Sakura got up. "Sure!" Hinata

grabbed her room key and left with Sakura for the grand tour of Konoha Academy.
