Sorry I haven't been updating! I've been really busy with school! Well I know you don't wanna just sit there and read me making up an excuse ( which I actually true...) Here is the story.
" Well where is she?" Older Ino asked impatiently. Sami sighed.
" I believe she met one of the solders, here in the palace." Sami said in a matter- a- fact tone.
" Oh really now, who might that be exactly?" Older Naruto asked with a raised eyebrow.
" His name is Zaku. He was Princess Sakuya's guardian. Now she has him stand guard for every reincarnation that is born. He's very distant from others, considering he use to be such a loving person... Well I'm not going to get into that. Lets just say that he has his days."
" So you think that Sakura is with this Zaku guy?" Kakashi said, raising his head from his dirty orange book. Sami nodded. " Well then why are we standing here when we could be looking for Sakura?"
Everyone then left the room, everyone following Sami. Quiet consumed the group, even both younger and older Naruto's couldn't find anything to say. Soon they approached a room and they walked inside to see Zaku, sitting on his bed, sharpening a sword. Zaku looked up to see a group a people standing at his door way and sighed.
" If your looking for Sakura, then your looking in the wrong place. She left a minute ago." He said as he continued sharpening his sword.
" Do you know which way she went at least?" Sami asked somewhat coldly.
" Left. I think" Zaku responded in the same tone. Sami turned his heel quickly, and exited the room, with the group following him close behind.
" Hey Sami?" Came a voice. Sami turned his head and saw Hinata twiddling her thumbs nervously." is t-there s-s-something that happened b-between you a-and Z-zaku- san by a-any chance?" Sami stopped and looked at the ground. The group looked at him with curiosity shining in their eyes.
" ...No my dear... we've had our days when we would be at each others throats, and others when we were great friends... Ever since Princess Sakuya died, everyone has... changed. The bonds and life in the palace have become very weak and lonesome. Some days we all just want to give up, and others we get through without a problem... Zaku... he loved Princess Sakuya very much... No one can replace her. Nobody..." Sami wiped a stray tear that was threatening to fall. " Well lets not give up on finding Princess Sakura-sama! She could of gone any where!"
Everyone nods their head. Each understanding what Sami and the people at the palace have gone through. Suddenly another voice was heard.
" Ino? Sasuke?Naruto?... Anyone?... HELLO?!?!" everyone turned around to see Sakura falling through the door. The group ran to her and sweat dropped as Sakura lay on the floor covered in scrolls and papers.
" Geez forehead- girl you sure did it this time." Older Ino said as she picked Sakura up along with Tenten.
" It's about time you got here! I was looking all over for this Sami guy. Have you seen him?" Suddenly a cough was heard as Sami stepped forward. Sakura looked down slightly and found her self looking at a short man wearing a kimono.
' interesting attire'
" You must be Princess Sakura, Princess Sakuya's reincarnation,ne?" he said with a bow. Sakura smiled.
" Yes... But you can call me Sakura-sama. No need for such formality."
" As you wish Sakura-sama." Sakura blushed.
" Oh right! I almost forgot! Sami Princess Sakuya wanted me to tell to bring my friends here... but I see you have already done so... She also told me to tell you to explain what the hell is going on! So start talking!!" Sami sighed a heavy sigh.
" Well it all starts like this..." Sami starts to explain that Sakuya had been growing up when her parents died and that her sister and she had grown apart. Soon Rika was creating armies of Darkness to let out anger and Sakuya tried to fight them off. They both die and now every 50 years, they make a reincarnation and they use them to fight against each other. Its rather difficult to explain.
" And this has been going on ever since?" Kurenai asked. Sami nodded.
" I'm afraid so... But that's why your all here. Besides the more people, the better!"
"What makes you think we'll succeed?" Older Sakura asked suddenly. Sami chuckled. " What? It worries me that we may have to do this over again..." Sami laughed a half hearted laugh.
" I have no idea on whether or not your ready. But if you weren't, then Princess Sakuya wouldn't have chosen you so soon! That's why she didn't pick you as a a child!"
" But that doesn't make sense..." Sakura said " Then how come I'm doing things all over again? How come were all here?"
" Because... She wants to make sure you get to live again... So that in the future you can do this again and maybe have a chance to succeed. The last couple of women that had tried this had failed. But something tells ,e there's more to be expected of you, Sakura. You just have to believe in your self!" Sami said with a smile.
" ...I'm hungry!!" Came a shout from the back of the group. The group turned around and saw Naruto lying on the ground drooling.
" Oh my! I forgot to introduce you to your maid!" Suddenly Sami took out a bell and shook it, the sound was soft yet echoed through the white halls of the giant palace. Suddenly footsteps were heard and soon two maids could be seen. One with long purple hair that was put in a high ponytail and shining purple eyes and the other with short brown hair and gray eyes.
" Everyone, meet Miki and Yui. Miki, Yui meet everyone else!"
" Hi!! OMG! YAY! This means more people in the palace to help and take care of!! This will be soooo much fun!!! we'll get to stay up late and I'll get to watch you train and OMG this is gonna be sooooo much funnnn!!!! OMG I almost forgot! My name is Miki and this is Yui. She's a little shy though, but she does one hell of a job on cleaning the bathrooms. Don't ya Yui-chan?!?"
"Y-yea I guess... Ummmm... Miki why don't we let them make a request so we can continue with the house work." The group was looking at the two girls wide eyed... How could people so different be such good friends. Much less live and work together... It must be hell!! Well we COULD always ask Sasuke and Naruto how there friends... But lets not at the moment.
" right... Ummm.. Miki, Yui, show our new guests their rooms and then go and prepare dinner and then finish the house work.
"Hai" Both girls said in unison as they dragged off the group to their rooms.
