" My name is Kinkwa-neko-Chan"
'What does she want with us?!'
'I have no idea!!!'
"W-W-Why are you h-here Kinkwa-neko-Chan"
"Well you see Sakura-Sama, once you picked up that bracelet everything woke-up."
"What do you mean EVERYTHING WOKE UP!!" Sakura said in a startled and confused voice, she also has lost her sacredness of Kinkwa-neko-Chan.
"Once San-Sama (WOW!!! SO DIDN'T MEAN TO DO THAT AT ALL!!! Hehehe I find it funni, idk if u all do but I do 0)chakra disappeared all of us went dormant, until another Sentare which would be you, activated the bracelet. We are now active again.
Sakura looked at the talking tiger tree in a confused way.
'There's more talking BRANCHES?!!!!' AHHHHHH!!! (Runs to hide under the bed)
"What do you mean by US?" Sakura stretched the word us to the talking branch
"Look at your bracelet Sakura-Sama……….You see how the flower is glowing? (Sakura nods her head) And seeing that I'm a tiger, I guess you can say that I'm the head hancho of the green zone. (AN: I no some of u mite be like no they arnt but I wanted to be original instead of using wolfs or any other more common animal I used this soo deal wit it 0 )
"What do you mean by green zone? And why is it just glowing right now?"
-Laughs- "You see Sakura-Sama that is for me to know and for you to find out. Say, aren't you going to Wind Country? Maybe they can help you?"
From that comment Sakura went to a very sad and depressed mood
"No. They cant nor wouldn't help me. They think I'm worthless, weak, and a mistake that is part of the family. Even if I don't know much about mom's side of the family, I really don't give a crap either. I treat them with respect and with politeness while that treat me like I'm lower than dirt. They just snort and walk on by, brushing me off."
'Ever thought that it was for protection?'
"Well Sakura-Sama I'm sorry to have put you in such a sour mood. Do you have any other questions before I leave?"
"Yeah actually I do. –Sakura is all perky again talk about mood swings- How on earth did you get here? I mean I was just doodling and all of a sudded BAM!"
-She laughs at Sakura's gesture as she said BAM- "I am called an animal spirit and for me to show up you have to channel chakra into any object that represents that animals part of habitat."
"But I didn't put any chakra into the branch. And does that mean I can "summon" other animals in your "green zone" besides you?"
"One question at a time there Sakura-Sama, to answer your first question you did put chakra into the branch, but you just didn't know it. To answer your second question, you are very smart to just figure out that from only a few explanations, so the answer is yes you can. Buttttt………now………….that……………..you………..have that………………..bracelet……..everything………..everything…………..will………change!"
(AN: I was trying to have the tigers voice fade away, just to clear up that for anyone that is confused)
And just like that the picture of the tiger stopped talking and Sakura was once again looking at the branch with confusion.
"Well that is about a 9.0 on my weird-stuff-o-meter."
"What is exactly weird Sakura?"
As that voice Sakura jumped to her feet kunai in hand ready to fight.
"Wooooaaahhhhh! Sakura its only me. I'm glad to see that your senses were on guard, I mean after that beam of light I didn't know what was going on."
'So Kakashi-Sensei saw it to. At least I know that I wasn't just seeing things.'
'Is it safe to come out of the bed? – gets out from under the bed and stretched her arms and legs- Phew, for a second there I thought we were done for.'
"Sorry Kakashi-Sensei(puts kunai away) I was just startled when you spoke I wasn't really thinking."
Kakashi looked at Sakura, then at their surroundings, and looked at the drawing on the tree branch.
'Where did the light come from?"
FLASHBACK
Kakashi wasn't really sleeping like he should have been.
'I know I trust Sakura but she is just a genin so just to be cautious I'll stay up.'
He looked around the camp for anything out of the ordinary, but couldn't find anything. Sitting there he looked up at the sky to see a very bright beam of light.
'Oh just great an enemy. Lets hope I can get to Sakura before they get to her.'
He got up and ran in the direction to where the beam of light was, masking his chakra making sure if there were enemies nearby they wouldn't sense him. As he got to the tree he hid himself in one part of the tree, only to see Sakura trying to cover the light so no one could see it. Which didn't work. Before he knew it the light was gone, then he saw Sakura and what looked like she was talking to a tree.
'Oh please tell me she isn't a basket case. I already got one unemotional student and a hyperactive student. And here I thought she was normal'
END FLASHBACK
"Hello earth to Kakashi-Sensei! You home?"
Hearing Sakura call out to him he came back from his thoughts. Opening up his only visible eye he saw a bracelet on Sakura's wrist, since she was waving her hand in his face. Snatching her wrist, like a frog did when it saw a fly. He examined the bracelet with great interest.
"Sakura where did you get this?"
Sakura had to think of an excuse and quick. She couldn't and seriously she couldn't tell Kakashi that she found it in a fen that she got the location from her dreams. Then he would as her if she had other dreams and that would be…………dare she say it……….troublesome.
"Uhhhhhhhhhh………………I……………….I………….found it on my porch before I came. Seeing that there wasn't anyone around I took it. Why Kakashi-Sensei? Something wrong?"
Releasing her hand he said:
"It's nothing Sakura. You are released from your watch. Get some sleep. Your going to need it tomorrow."
With those words said Sakura ran to the campground and fell fast asleep once she hit the sleeping bag.
'Sakura…..I don't know how you got that bracelet. But I'm going to have to keep a close eye on you. Might even have to tell the Hokage.'
-----------------------------------------NEXT DAY---------------------------------
The sun was shinning high over the four ninjas heads. They have left their camp some time ago and have been traveling very well, thanks to Sakura's route they got really close to the Wind Country in half the time. But before they got to get near the gates of Wind Country there was a little shack, there they went in to it to get some rest.
--------------------------------IN THE SHACK---------------------------------
They entered the shake and sat at a booth that could hold all four of them.
"I'm tired. Don't they have ramen here?" Said I'm-sure-you-can-guess-who Naruto
"Naruto really I swear one day your gonna kill yourself off of that. You cant have just that in your diet. It isn't enough protein, fruits, and vegetables in your diet. All that is, is carbohydrates." Stated Sakura waving her finger at Naruto
Naruto looked at her in a confused way, a way she is all to familiar with. He so didn't get what Sakura just said. It went in one ear and out the other. But taking a crack at it he just sat there and said:
"Don't worry Sakura-Chan. I'll be fine."
"Ok Naruto if your sure." Sakura said with a sigh.
While they just waited and sat at the booth Sakura found herself looking all around the shack. It looked like a restaurant no less. There was three sections, one section was the bar. The bar was right along the rooms outer edge making it really only have room for chairs so the customers could drink and sit. The next section was were they were sitting. It was were people would order food and have a lunch. There were an even amount of booths with chousing seats and tables that can go together for a large party of people. The third section held a huge dance stage with a kick-ass stereo. The wall that separated the 2nd and 3rd room, Sakura guessed, could be removed. The floor was all hardwoods, the ceiling was in a high triangle shape, the booths and chairs were in the colors of blue and green. The walls had pictures of what seemed like landmarks that the Wind Country held.
'I don't know but this place seems very familiar.'
'Your right. And why do I have this feeling that someone we know is here?'
'I will say it again I have no clue.'
After waiting for what seemed like a eternity, a very tall, lean, tan, bleach blonde came to their table. Her uniform was a black top and white jeans that came down to her hips. Her hair was in all layers, angled, and cut to about her shoulders, and she seemed to be around her early 30's.
"Hi! Welcome to Rudy's Restaurant. How can I help you today?"
'I think she practiced that line waaayyyy to many times. She is even more high-pitched than Ino-Pig'
Sakura nodded her head in agreement.
Kakashi ordered first. All he ordered was water with a lemon on the side and a bowl of pasta. Sasuke ordered next and he ordered tomato soup and tomato juice.
'Never noticed this before but……..SASUKE LIKES TOMATOES! AND HE EATS THEM IN LIKE ANY KIND OF WAY AS POSSIBNLE!!! EWWW!!! HOW WEIRD!!!
'NO IT ISNT!!
'HELLO?!! ARE YOU MESSED-UP IN THE HEAD?!!! YES HE IS! AND SINCE I SAY THAT YOU AGREE WITH ME BECAUSE I'M LIKE YOU!!
'No fair(-Sakura crosses her arms-)'
Next came Naruto. He talked so fast it was surprising that she got it all down. He ordered 4 bowls of ramen (AN: OF course just wat he needs more Caffeine….0, you'll see wat I mean in a second) and a Moca Frapachino. (an: THOSE ARE THE BEST! They make you soooo hyper! And yes I no random order made by Naruto, BUUUTTTT there is gonna be a reason behind that soon enough)
But once she got to Sakura she gasped. Her eyes bulged out of her head and she dropped her pad and pen.
"Y-Y-Y-Y-Your b-b-b-back! S-S-S-S-S-Since w-w-w-w-when?"
Sakura looked at the lady in a confused manner
"Do I know you?" asked Sakura
Meanwhile the three boys were looking back and forth between the two girls.
"Do you know her Sakura-Chan?"
Sakura looked at Naruto and then back at the blonde. Before she could answer Naruto though the lady started to speak again, no more like stutter.
"T-T-T-T-T-T-T-That c-c-c-c-c-c-confirms i-i-i-i-i-i-it t-t-t-t-then."
'God she is worse than Hinata!"
"What does that confirm exactly?" asked Sakura folding her arms over her chest and gave the blonde a look. Poor Sakura never got a answer because she left the table to fast.
"Look what you did Sakura, you scared her away. Lets hope she hands in our order." Kakashi said earning a few laughs from Naruto and Sakura
'It seems that just by showing up here Sakura isn't forgotten. I thought everyone was suppose to forget her? Yeah I definitely have to contact the Hokage'
-----------------------Meanwhile in the Kitchen----------------------------
Once she figured out it was definitely the girl who she thought she was, she ran like hell to the kitchen.
'I have to tell Tyson about this. He has missed her so much. I swear after he heard what happened to her he has never been the same. Well come to think of it no one was the same after that day. But now Sakura-San cant even remember them, this isn't good. Better put on the old face, its finally time that this country felt somewhat happy.'
The waitress ran into the kitchen shouting the owners name
"Tyson-San, Tyson-San, Tyson-San, Tyson-San!!!!!" She looked everywhere for him. Finally seeing a tall, thin, brown hair, middle ages, brown eyed man with a chef hat pop up from behind the stove.
"MAY!!! Haven't I told you not to scream my name when I'm cooking?!!!! What would the customers think of us?!" Tyson shouted in a stern voice
May stopped running right when she got up to Tyson. Trying to catch her breath and speak at the same time. Tyson sensed that she was having trouble so he asked the obvious question
"What has gotten into you? And what is with that smile? You never smiled like that since………………….."
At this Tyson's jaw dropped down to the ground. He wasn't stupid, but its just wasn't possible to what her smile implied.
May finally caught her breath and smiled at her Bose/friends reaction. He couldn't and doubted that she was here after all these years.
"Yes! SHE IS HERE!!! Look right out this door!!! She seems to be with a team." May shouted happily
Tyson still was shocked but got the ability to move and opened the door that looked over the whole restaurant. And sure enough there she was talking to some blonde kid about her age.
"Well I'll be damned May! She is back!"
"I cant wait till everyone finds out she's back!" May exclaimed
"No May. No one should know she is here. Lets hope she is just passing by." Tyson said in a sad, strict voice
May was confused about this.
"Why not?"
"I can't tell you that, but since she is here we might as well enjoy it."
'Who knows when the next time she comes around here.'
The both of them shrugged off their thoughts and made their way to Sakura's table
"We have been waiting forever!!!!!! I'm soooooo hungry!"
"Quiet Naruto. Give the cook a few more minutes."
"But Kakashi-Sensei, the drinks should be here by now. You don't need to cook those."
"Well I guess your right Sakura. But lets give her a few………………"
Before Kakashi could finish his sentence the waitress was back with a man who seemed to be around his mid-40's.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, I just figured I should introduce you to one of our finest cooks Tyson-San. Oh and my name is May."
"Hi. Its nice to meet you all." Tyson said
Tyson looked from the 26yr old guy with silver hair to the blonde next to Sakura, but then he saw the dark haired boy next to Kakashi.
'Uchiha. What is her doing here? Poor Sakura, she has to put up with this brat. I wonder if she remembers anything at all.'
"I hate to be the one that kills parties, but May-San why do you need to introduce us to the cook?"
Naruto looked at Kakashi like he was an alien. Sakura looked at Naruto knowing what he was going to do and Sasuke just looked out into space.
'How boring' thought Sasuke
"Kakashi-Sensei! HOW DARE YOU!!!" (Kakashi looked at Naruto with a dumbfounded look)
"What did I do Naruto?"
"Dobe."
"SHUT-IT SASUKE-TEME I DON'T HAVE TIME TO COME UP WITH A COME BACK FOR YOU RIGHT NOW!! I'M GOING TO STRANGLE YOU!!!"
(May and Tyson are watching them with amused looks. Never before have they seen a boy burst-out over something so small. Nor have they seen Sakura sit there and be so quiet. But being gone for 6 yrs can change a person)
"Why are you going to strange me Naruto."
"BECAUSE!!! Why wouldn't the waitress bring the cook guy over here?! She is obviously is going to tell him, im the BEST RAMEN TASTE TESTER ever and he should start making up the best batch of ramen for me!!"
Dead Silence
"Dobe……….that is just the most stupid reason ever."
"You DARE DEFY ME SASUKE-TEME!!"
"You couldn't even hit me if you tried."
Kakashi, May, and Tyson looked at the two boys with a huge anime sweat drop in the back of their heads. Poor Sasuke, he didn't expect what would happen next. While the two boys were fighting Sakura's temper was rising as every second passed. No one seemed to notice her chakra rising because of her temper. So since Sasuke was the "closest" one to Sakura she punched him square in the face making him go flying 50ft away from the table. Everyone looked at Sakura with widened eyes.
'Now that is the Sakura we know.' Thought Tyson smiling like a treasure cat
"Thanks Sakura-chan!"
"Naruto I suggest you run."
"Why Kakashi-Sensei?"
"Because……………"
Sakura also hit Naruto sending him the same distance away from the table as she sent Sasuke.
"Sakura. I know that they get annoying but you cant kill them every time they are annoying."
"I'm sorry Kakashi-Sensei (her anger receding) I don't know what got into me."
Kakashi just smiled at this and in a few minutes Sasuke and Naruto came back to the table.
"Anyway, I'm out here, not to have the worlds best ramen taster test my ramen, although I can make you some, but to ask you all a question."
"OH, OH, OH!!" Naruto is jumping up and down like a monkey does when it has just pulled a trick. ( well it seems Sakura's punch didn't effect Naruto lol)
"What's the question?" Tyson laughed at the blondes hyper ness
"Well you see this restaurant holds a so called contest. It allows all the people in the Wind Country to see people or travelers like yourselves."
"Why would we want to participate in a contest." Sasuke said with a bored expression on his face.
Tyson looked at the boy with a evil glare, yet no one seemed to notice. (AN: I think it is a way for him to extinguish his anger lol 0 ) His tone went from curiosity and happy to cold and icy.
"Because it is what determines who can advance further throughout the world or go into the Wind Country. If you don't compete then you will have to be sent back the way you came."
If that didn't get the room to be quiet enough that it was able to hear a pin drop, who knows what could. Sakura saw how everyone was not going to say anything so she decided to break the silence.
"Ummmm Tyson-Sama………what exactly is this contest that we have to compete in?"
"First off call me Tyson. I hate Suffixes, second off to answer your question Sakura-Chan (Sakura blushed at this even though she had no idea why, this didn't go unnoticed by her team.) the contest is simply a singing one."
Sakura's eyes went wide and her mouth turned into the most happiest grin, Naruto was jumping up and down shouting his usual "ALRIGHT!!!", Kakashi simply chuckled at the idea, and Sasuke, well he practically shit his pants.
"Do all of us have to do this stupid contest?" Sasuke asked
Tyson turned around to Sasuke with a sinister grin plastered on his face. This freaked the Uchiha out.
"Yes Uchiha. All of you have to participate. That even means your Sensei here as well. (Kakashi's eyes went wide. He didn't expect that to come up. Oh well it doesn't look like he had a chose in the madder.) Well I must go. Here is a list of all the songs that you can choose from. Its starts when all the stars are visible in the sky. And it is here in the restaurant, just if you were still unsure." Tyson said with a wave and returned to the kitchen.
"Well I'll go get your drinks and food now." May said and ran into the kitchen as well.
Naruto and Sakura both looked at the list. They were overjoyed that they could sing, while the other two weren't as happy.
"Soooo Sakura-Chan which one are you choosing?"
"I don't know Naruto. I might choose that one. what about you?"
"HAHAHAHA!!! I'm gonna choose that one!!!"
'THAT PERVERT!!!!'
'It should be pretty funny to see him dance and sing to that'
'especially when we give him sugar before it!!!'
Sakura turned to her Sensei and Sasuke
"What are you choosing Sasuke and Kakashi-Sensei?"
"That one." Sasuke pointed to some random song and slouched back into his chair crossing his arms over his chest.
"I'll take that one." Kakashi said with a smile. He may not want to sing but that doesn't mean he doesn't like to!!
IN THE KITCHEN (AGAIN)8
"Tyson-San!!! Why did you tell them they HAD to participate in that, if you didn't want Sakura to be seen?"
"Look May. Either way they were going to have to do this since they have to get by in order to continue their travels. Might as well have EVERYONE SHOCKED that she is here." Tyson said with a smile
"Lets just hope you know what your doing. We don't want to get Sakura into any TTROUBLE while she is here."
IN THE WOODS WITH OUR STALKERS!!!
"They went into that restaurant. So I take it we are going to wait here."
"Ah"
'This should get interesting. They are going to see that Sakura is back and I wonder what their reaction is now that the Uchiha is here. Oh well not my problem.'
'Hope she can sing…..OH WAIT THAT IS RIGHT YOU KNOW SHE CAN SING!!!'
------no answer….the stalker just brushed his inner talking person off----------
