Anything, But Ordinary
Chapter Six: Team 7
Sakura sat in the empty class room, well it was mostly empty aside from the two boys who had been placed on her team. The first a loud and obnoxious Naruto Uzumaki. He was nice boy who wasn't very bright from what Sakura could tell. One thing he did have was a massive crush on her. The second was the polar opposite of her other teammate. He was supposedly the top genin in their class. He was also the last surviving Uchiha aside from the one man who's thoughts made her seal break.
She glared slightly. The reason we're on the same team is because... they want to keep a close eye on us. She thought bitterly. "Naruto! What are you doing!" Sakura yelled standing up. Naruto now stood on a chair a wide grin on his face as he placed an eraser in between the door and the door frame.
"I'm gonna play a prank on our new sensei." Naruto giggled as he jumped down from the chair.
"Damnit Naruto!" Sakura yelled getting up from her sitting spot and running to him. She grabbed a hold of his collar and shock him. "Our new sensei is going to be a jonin! They'll never fall for something so idiotic!" She continued to shake him.
"Owww! Sakura-chan calm down!" Naruto whined. Sakura frozen when she saw hand touch the door. Naruto's grin grew even wider as the door slid open. Their new sensei stuck his head through the door way just in time to have the eraser fall on his head. Naruto busted out laughing, practically rolling on the floor. Sasuke stared at the man an annoyed expression on his face.
Is he really a jonin? Sakura thought to herself.
"My first impression of you: I hate you." the man said, he had silver hair that went out in different places. Not only that but his head band covered one of his eyes. The only part of his face that was showing was a little area around his right eyes.
"Damnit Naruto!" Sakura screamed before elbowing him in the head.

Sakura sighed to herself as she walked through main street. She wore her headband on the top of her head. She couldn't help thinking it felt weird to have something that new to her. Today had been far from a good day. Not only had she been placed on the same team as the two most annoying boys but they had a sensei that was late and didn't like them. Not only that they had to meet up at five the next morning for a test. Who takes a test at five in the morning? She wasn't supposed to eat either.
"Hey! Hey Sakura-chan! Wait up!" Naruto yelled running up to Sakura, who just sighed in return.
"What do you want Naruto."
"Well... uhh... I was wondering if you wanted to go get some ramen with me?' he asked, huge blush on his face.
"Sorry I can't. I'm going to train." she said.
"Well... uh... I could train with you?" he said, sheepishly.
Sakura stared at him and raised an eyebrow. Maybe training with someone would be a good idea. She normally trained alone which wasn't very helpful and if she wanted to be a missing nin with her parents one day she needed to get a lot stronger. "Okay... but don't be so annoying!" Sakura snapped at him.
"Yes yes yes!" Naruto cheered.
"Naruto..." Sakura said in her angry voice, her fist clinched.
"Yeah Sakura-chan?" he asked, smiling.
"You better run!" she screamed, chasing after the blonde boy who took off in the direction of the training fields. Kakashi sat on the roof of the building his two new students had just been talking under.
"Well... at least those two are trying to get alone." Kakashi said with a sigh.

"Naruto!" Sakura screamed as she pounced on the young blonde boy knocking him to the ground. "I swear I'm gonna-" Sakura started as she shock the blonde boy back in forth.
"Idiots." Sakura stopped attacking the younger boy and looked up to see her eyes land on Sasuke.
"Oh... hi." she said, standing up quickly. She was completely embarassed by how she had been acting in front of him.
"Whatever." the Uchiha boy said. Sakura could feel her stomach start to do twists and turns. Not that she had a crush on Sasuke. It was more because of how much he reminded her of his brother. The one with the answer on how to break the seal that would not allow her to fully understand her past memories.
"Naruto and I are going to train." Sakura said, standing up.
"Hn."
"If you want you can train with us. It'll be like teamwork getting us ready for tomorrow."
"Hey! No!" Naruto whined. "I thought it was just going to be you and me?"
Sakura rolled her eyes. "We're a team. Whether we like it or not we need to work together." she said.
"No thanks. Why would I want to work with a bunch of weakling like you." Sasuke said, turning to walk away from the group. Sakura sighed in defeat as she watched his retreating form.
"So what should we start training on? Tai jutsu! Or we could work on-"
"Meditation." Sakura stated simply.
"Nani! But Sakura-chan that's-"
"Shh! Just for ten minutes. God knows you probably won't be able to last that long." Sakura said. Naruto let out a long sigh.
"Fine. Ten minutes! No problem! Believe it!" Sakura couldn't help but giggle. The two sat quietly for about three minutes before Naruto started to make noises and move around.
"Three minutes... better than nothing." Sakura said, annoyed.
"Sorry Sakura-chan! I really tried!" Sakura let out a laugh.
"It's okay Naruto. But lets start to work out more." she smiled. "How about some stretches first?" she said. Naruto nodded in agreement. He figured he had taken enough beatings in one day.
"Hey Naruto?" Sakura asked, as she bent down and grabbed onto her toes.
"Yeah Sakura-chan?"
"Tomorrow... what ever Kakashi-sensei has as do lets work together okay?" Sakura asked with a smile.
Naruto's face lit up as bright as a strawberry. "Sure Sakura-chan." Naruto laughed.

"Pein..." Konan whispered, a small hand rested on his arm. He watched as a tear slid down her cheek. "I want my daughter back."
"I know. I know." he clinched his fist in anger. "It won't be long. I've heard that Orochimaru is planning an attack on Konoha. While he does this, Konoha's defenses will be weakened. That's when we will make our move to get our daughter."
"How will we know. We'll need to have a base closer to Konoha."
"He's planning on attacking at the Chunin exams that our coming up."
"How can you be sure?" Konan asked.
"The Chunin exams are being held at Konoha. Sand, sound, lightening. They will all be there. Konoha has many enemys." Pein said. Konan closed her eyes.
"What if Sakura gets hurt?" her voice was no more than a whisper.
"Ame will be sending a genin group. Consisting of Itachi, Hidan, and our newest member once Itachi and Kisame get back from retreving him. Deidara." Konan nodded.
"Do you think it will work?"
"I know it will."
