"Sakura, what happened to your arm?" Sakura looked down at the cast and smiled while pulling out some pens. "Nothing to worry about guys, you wanna sign it?" She held out the pens that were quickly taken from her and three hands tried to write on her cast at once.
"Will it affect the tournament?" Sakura looked up at the one who didn't take a pen and start writing. "No I will be able to take it off in six weeks or so, the tournament is in three months right?" The boy nodded and took the pen handed to him.
Sakura looked down at what they wrote and smiled at the first one. 'Tobi is a good boy' stood and there was a small rainbow next to it, Sakura smiled at the orange masked boy who did it before looking at what the blue haired teen had written. 'Jaws will eat you alive' was the simple writing and then a badly drawn picture of a shark eating his name 'Kisame'.
The blond boy wrote 'Art is a BANG' and then his name below made like it was coming out of an explosion 'Deidara'. Last was the writing from the black haired boy who had spoken earlier, he had simply written his name 'Itachi'.
When they'd all returned the pens the cast was very colorful to say the least. "Well guys what do you want to do now?" The males all looked up at her and smirked. "You know that place where they're building a whole new suburb?" Kisame asked. "Yeah, what about it?"
Deidara pushed the blue haired boy away and smirked even wider. "There are empty pools there and no one around." Sakura smiled back at them and jumped her skateboard calling behind her. "Well what are you waiting for, lets go and have some fun."
Sakura and the four boys were having a grand time playing in the deepest pool they could find in the aria, that is until some skaters came along interrupting them.
"What do you want?" Deidara yelled at them as soon as he saw them. "Move, this pool is ours." One of the boys said, he was tall and had orange hair. "No way, we came here first besides we outnumber you." Kisame said to them crossing his arms.
"Foolish little brother." Was heard from the back of the group making them all turn around to look at Itachi who was the one that had spoken. Sakura smirked from under the hood of the stolen hoodie she was wearing, unlike the boys who had ripped of their sweaters she had taken one and thrown it on because she had been cold.
"Itachi, so there you are, I was wondering where you went all the time." A boy around Sakura's age said and stepped forward, he looked a lot like his older brother besides the fact he had shorter hair that stuck up in the back defying gravity.
Sakura pulled on Itachi's t-shirt and whispered in his ear making him smirk and nod. "Well little brother my friend here just came with an entertaining solution. If you want to be here you have to earn it so we suggest a race." All were now looking at the elder of the brothers.
"What kind of a race?" A red haired girl asked crossing her arms frowning. "The one that makes it down from the rooftop and into the pool first gets to stay in the pool." Itachi said pointing to the roof where numerous of platforms and stairs where placed along with some garbage. "So what do you say Sasuke?" Itachi asked smirking at his younger brother.
"The pool is as good as ours." Was his only response as a silver haired teen walked forward indicating that he would be the one doing the task.
Kisame was about to step forward also when Sakura placed a hand on his elbow shaking her head and saying in a low voice so only her friends could hear her. "My idea, my race." The males all nodded as Sakura stepped forward and started to climb out of the pool.
"You're placing this little shrimp against me?" The silver haired teen asked insulted to say the least. They said nothing but only pointed the two to go on up.
When the two were up on the roof waiting for the signal to start the silver haired boy smirked at Sakura. "My name is Suigetsu, you better remember that 'cause I'm gonna beat you." Sakura only looked on and saw that the signal would be given at any moment now and just before Tobi brought his hands down and allowed them to start she simply said. "Sakura."
With that she was of and racing down the rooftop with the boy closely behind her. Sakura swayed away from all the junk on the roof and headed to the stairs that had been left there, once she was up to it she jumped taking her skateboard with her and skidded down the stairs with as much grace as she could with her left hand in a cast.
In no time at all she was down on the ground and jumping in the pool coming to a stop beside Itachi. Kisame, Deidara and Tobi all cheered for her and gave her high fives. "Hehe, looks like we won." Sakura yelled at the other team and yanked her hood of to reveal her feminine features.
Just as they were celebrating they heard sirens not too far away and it looked like they were heading to them. "Every man for him self!" Deidara yelled and soon they scattered in all directions heading to a safer place.
The sirens were close to where Sakura had gone to and she cursed her luck just as she saw a car she recognized. Sakura thought she was safe as she headed to the car that was about to take of from the red light it was currently on.
She yanked open the passenger door, grabbed her skateboard and jumped in. "Go Tem go!" Sakura yelled not looking away from the police car that was coming around the corner.
The car took of and only when Sakura couldn't see the police car any longer she turned around only to come face to face with a brunette she recognized from somewhere. "Ahhh!" She yelled as she realized she was sitting on the boys lap.
She tried to move of off him but only ended lying over the feet of three guys that she was sure she had seen before. Looking around Sakura saw that there was no four pigtailed blond driving the car like she had expected but a brunette that she really, really should know.
"What the fuck, you stole Tem's car!" Sakura finally yelled and pointed at the male driving who was desperately trying not to laugh at the absurd situation. Sakura somehow managed to wedge her self in between the front seats so she wasn't sitting on the three boys lap and was now facing them.
"Relax Pinky, I didn't steel the car." The brunette assured her and only then did it click in Sakura's mind who they were, the glaring red head helped a little. "Oh fuck you're Temari's brothers aren't you?" They didn't answer as the car came to a halt in front of Temari's house.
Sakura was the firs one to jump out with her board under her hand as she ran straight inside to house yelling the blonds' name. "TEMARI!" Said blond came running down the stairs as soon as she heard Sakura's voice.
"Sakura what are you doing here?" As she asked the boys walked in.
"She jumped in the car while we where on a red light." The brunette Sakura had landed on first said.
"Then she stared accusing us of steeling your car." The blond that Sakura's head had landed on after that said.
"And finally she realized that you were our sister." Kankuro finished with a smile.
"Again Sakura?" Was all Temari said surprising the males for they had expected some yelling directed at the pinkette. "I was being chased by the cops, what else was I supposed to do?" Sakura defended her actions in a twisted way.
"Only you Sakura, only you." Temari said and pulled on the hoodie the younger girl was wearing. "What is this?" Sakura looked down at the yellow hoodie she was wearing and cursed. "Damn I forgot to give it back to Tobi." Temari shook her head again and pointed to Sakura to follow her up stairs. "You and your friends." She sighed.
"Hey you're my friend." Was the last the boys heard before a door slammed shut and loud Metallica music started. "Well that was interesting." The brunette that had red triangle tattoos on his cheeks said. "Yeah, not every day a chick jumps in your car." The blond said.
"Actually that happens like every other day with us, that's why we borrowed Temari's car." The brunette with his hair pulled up in a high ponytail said. While all this happened Gaara, the red head was quietly wondering why on earth she hadn't jumped any of them like most girls did when they saw them.
Sakura was running down the stairs at Temari's house with her board under her hand while waiving to her friend that was standing at the top thus not seeing the boy that was standing at the bottom of the stairs that was talking to his blond friend.
'BAM!'
Both teens fell over, Sakura on top of Gaara's back. "I'm so sorry, I didn't see you." Sakura said jumping of the boy and started pulling him up. "Yeah, yeah." He just said dusting himself of and turning to the girl.
"Hehe, I guessed I never introduced myself to you guys. I'm Sakura." She said and held her hand out to the red head who took it loosely and saying. "Gaara." The blond then jumped her and shook her hand. "Naruto." Sakura smiled at him and turned to the next one. "Kiba." The guy with the tattoos said bending down and kissing the back of her hand only to have him self slapped and for Sakura to turn to the last member there. "Shikamaru." He said lazily shaking her hand.
"Well it was nice to meet you all and sorry for jumping in your car like that and sorry for knocking you over Gaara." Sakura said and opened the door heading out before she could hear Temari call down. "Wait Sakura you can't walk all the way home." But it was too late for the pinkette was out the door and well down the road on her skateboard.
"Where does she live anyway?" Kankuro asked as her emerged from the kitchen. "The other side of town. Damn girl, always getting herself in trouble." Temari shook her head and headed back up stairs. "Aren't you going to call her back and drive her home?" Naruto asked shocked.
Temari turned around and looked at him funny. "Are you crazy, she could be anywhere right now, that girl is way to fast for me to find her once she's out the door and on that skateboard of hers."
The band members of Houkou didn't doubt her words and just went to their own business.
